Hi!
I'm wondering if any of you are having trouble using watched folders in PSE 6? Unlike my 5.0 version it won't watch ANY subfolders!! How ridiculous!!!
I thought it was a great feature in 5.0 since I could use the explorer to move just one little folder at a time into a watched folder and it would automatically bring up the items I needed to tag. That way I never missed tagging anything since I only tag a few times a month.
TIA for any help you may be able to offer!!!

Cari,

Watched Folders has been known to be buggy. I would check over at the Adobe support forums.

When I used to use the Organizer, I would just use File->Get Photos from Files and Folders (or something like that) since I always knew where I put my photos.

Hi!
I've been using Watched Folders in PSE6 without a problem, so far. I have set one main folder to be watched; that folder contains all my sub-folders that hold my SB supplies, and so far PSE6 brings in everything new that I have downloaded and unzipped. You have to make sure they're unzipped first before you open PSE6 or it won't work. Hope this helps! :)
