# Finding photos in the Organizer

In the Organizer, you can find photos and media files by date, star rating, album, folder location, filename, media type, keyword tag, or other criteria. You can also sort files in any grouping in chronological, reverse chronological, or album order.

Note: In addition to using the Organizer to import media files, you can bring them into Photoshop Elements by using the File > Open or File > Place commands in the Editor. These commands allow you to browse to a file and are best used if you already know the precise path and filename for the file you seek. For more information about finding files in the Editor, see Open a file and Place a PDF, Adobe Illustrator, or EPS file in a new layer.
