3. In the Photo Downloader dialog box under Source, select where to copy/import from using the Get Photos From drop-down list.

Select the Refresh List option from the drop-down list to refresh the list of available cameras or card readers.

4. In the Import Settings area, set the following options:

Specifies the folder to which the media files are downloaded. To change the default folder location, click Browse, and specify a

new location.

Creates a subfolder using the naming scheme chosen from the pop-up menu. If you choose Custom Name, type a

subfolder name in the box.

Tip: (Windows only) If you are using keyboard shortcuts to create subfolders (Alt+C) or rename files (Alt+R), press the spacebar to expand

the menu. Then, use the arrow keys to select an option.

Changes the filenames using the naming scheme selected from the pop-up menu. If you want to specify a custom Name,

type a base filename and a starting number for assigning sequentially numbered filenames to the media files.

Note: If the name you entered exists, the copied image filename is appended with “-1”, or another appropriately numbered designator.

Select this option to use the current filename as the filename stored in the metadata of the media file.

Specifies whether to leave the media files on your camera or card, verify and delete the files, or delete the files after they

are copied. Deleting the files automatically avoids having to delete the media files by using your camera. Media files that you do not import

into Elements Organizer are not deleted from the device.

Imports your media files instantly the next time Elements Organizer 11 is selected in the Windows

AutoPlay dialog box. This option uses the Automatic Download values specified in the Camera or Card Reader preferences.

5. For more download options, click the Advanced Dialog button.

6. Click Get Media.

The media files are copied to your hard drive. If the media files you copied contain keyword metadata, the Import Attached Tags dialog box

appears; specify whether to copy the tags.

7. Click OK in the Files Successfully Copied dialog box. You can choose to show only the new files in the Media Browser.

You can change the settings specified here at a later time. In Elements Organizer, for Windows, select Edit > Preferences > Camera or Card

Reader. In Mac OS, select Adobe Elements Organizer 11 > Preferences > Camera or Card Reader.

Set advanced photo downloading options

The Advanced dialog box of the Adobe Photo Downloader offers all the options in the Standard dialog box plus several additional options. For

example, you can view all of the media files stored on a device or preview videos before importing them. You can also add copyright metadata,

specify an album for the imported photos, and automatically fix red eye as the images are imported. The settings you specify in this dialog box

retain their values until you reset them.

1. In the Standard Photo Downloader dialog box, click Advanced Dialog.
