Photos are just files on your computer. they're not tied to a specific program. Jiust import them from your library in Elements.

Hi

iPhoto is a software application used to import, organize, edit, print, and share digital photos on a Mac OS.
Elements Organizer 10 supports importing photos from iPhoto '09 (versions 8.0 – 8.1.2) and iPhoto’11 (versions 9.0 – 9.1.3). You cannot import photos from versions previous to iPhoto '09.

Import photos from iPhoto ‘09

Elements Organizer 10 supports importing photos, along with their associated captions, tags, and ratings, from iPhoto. You also have the option to import information such as events and albums to maintain the organization of your library
Select Files > Get Photos And Videos > From iPhoto.
Note: The iPhoto option is not displayed if iPhoto is not installed on your computer.

The Import From iPhoto dialog

(Optional) You can convert events in iPhoto to individual albums in Elements Organizer 10. In the Import From iPhoto dialog, select Convert Events From iPhoto Into Albums.
When you import an album and event with the same name, a single album is created and all associated photos are added to the album.
(Optional) Select More options if you want to choose the events and albums for import. Select the events and albums you want to import.
Click Import.

Import photos from iPhoto ‘11

Select File > Get Photos And Videos > From iPhoto. Click Import.

I also a got an article for a quik reference.

If you want to keep using iphoto (I'll assume you do unless you post back and say otherwise), you have two choices:

1. Set up PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto to PSE for editing. In this case iPhoto will remember one version + original. (The article linked in _techkid123_'s post explains how to do this.

2. Export the photos from iPhoto, use file>open in the editor, save the photos with a new name, and then reimport the edited photos as new images. The advantage of this method is that you can save as many different versions as you like.
