I’m a longtime user of PSE however I’ve forgotten a simple PSE Organizer rule. I used my desktop copy of PSE after a long rest. Both programs are on Windows 10, desktop and laptop.
After a long summer trip, noticed that when I import new camera microSD cards to download from my Canon 80D or Nikon Coolpix P530 the screen results are different. After I import the side by sides of the thumbnail images id the photos id what camera operator used. I find this helpful when putting albums together. It also shows me by inserting a -1 that it is an duplicate.
At the bottom of the images they each should have three small id lines that show stars, date and id’s the camera I used, stars aren’t important but the date and camera are:
(Canon) and (Nikon)

I just can’t remember the location in PSE program where I can tell Organizer to check so that the camera type is IDed. I thought it might be in Preferences , but I couldn’t find it there. I’m looking through my old manuals by no luck.
I am hoping a helpful Photoshop Element’s user night see this request and let me what setting I should use to id the camera under my images.
Thanks for your help,

Hey Barb, I’m so glad you found your answer – since I am clueless when it comes to PhotoShop Elements.
btw – to see the date and camera info using Google Photos:
- on a computer, click the i button to open the info panel to the side
- on a mobile device, just swipe up on the photo to reveal all the metadata
