How to Use Watch Folders in the Photoshop Elements Organizer. Categories Basic Tutorial. One easy way to get files into the Photoshop Elements Organizer window is to use Watch Folders. Watch Folders
are folders that you can identify on your computer. Each time new
photos are added to the Watch Folders, Elements prompts you to confirm
adding the files from the folders to your Organizer Catalog.
To set up a Watch Folder, open the Organizer and choose File→Watch Folders. The Watch Folders dialog box opens. By default, your Pictures folder on your hard drive is already identified as a Watch Folder.
To identify a new Watch Folder, click the Add button. In the Browse
For Folder dialog box that opens, locate a folder or make a new folder
for adding photos. Each time you copy photos to any location shown in
the Watch Folders dialog box, Elements sees the photos and either asks
you whether you want to import them in your catalog or automatically
adds the files to a catalog.
In the Watch Folders dialog box, you find radio button choices for either notifying you when new files are found in a Watch Folder or for Elements to automatically import photos each time new files are added to a Watch Folder. Select the Notify Me radio button so that you’re always aware of when new files are added to your catalog.
After you copy photos and launch the Organizer, a dialog box opens, prompting you to confirm adding photos (assuming that you chose Notify Me in the Watch Folders dialog box). Click Yes in the dialog box shown, and the Add New Files From Watch Folder dialog box opens.
In the Add New Files From Watch Folder dialog box, you find thumbnail
previews for the new files found in a Watch Folder. By default, all the
check boxes are selected. You can deselect any photos you don’t want to
add. Click OK, and the files are added to your catalog.
