Photoshop Elements for Mac - Three Versions Installed

Hi there,
I'm cleaning up stuff on my iMac and find I have three purchased versions of PhotoShop Elements for Mac installed, V4, V6 and now V8.  Can I safely remove the old V4 and V6 versions without them affecting anything in V8?
Also, there are other versions of related software, such as Adobe Bridge, then Adobe Bridge CS3 and CS4.  Can the original and CS4 versions be removed.
What else might have multiple versions relating to Photoshop Elements?
Can I remove these by simply deleting them from the Applications or is there a process which needs to be followed, i.e., an Uninstall?
Guidance much appreciated.
Lynn

"Never delete anything, just buy a bigger hard drive"!
After I admit to being "slightly eccentric", let me say I don't know why you even need to uninstall any of them. The only caveat there is you can't run two versions simultaneously.  I have PSE- 5 & 7 installed on one of my computers, and I import the same file into both catalogs, while duplicating the folders on a separate HDD also. You can never be to sure, or is that too insecure, I'm not really sure.

  • Photoshop Elements for Mac OSX 10.5.6 Version?

    I'm confused. Is there an Elements for Mac in Version 7. I called the sales line and they told me that for a Mac I would choose Version 6 for Mac??? Is Version 7 for Windows equal to Version 6 for Mac?
    Thanks!

    Yes, there is no version 7 for mac, but it doesn't really matter, since most of the changes between 6 and 7 were bug fixes in the organizer and the push to use photoshop.com. In the editor, there aren't huge differences between the two programs, just a couple of new tools. For 10.5.6 PSE 6 is the one you want, especially if you have an intel mac.

  • Choosing paper type in Photoshop Elements for mac

    How do I select paper type in PS elements for Mac OS Lion 10.7?

    You do this in the OS X print window that appears after you click Print in the PSE print window. You may need to expand the window by clicking the Show Details button, and then you'll see a pulldown menu in the middle of the window where you make your choices for paper, ink, etc.

  • Photoshop elements for Mac (snow leopard)

    Hi all. I recently upgraded my computer to a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. Previously i had a windows running acer. Just before my acer crashed i bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. Unfortunately this is not compatible with my Mac. I was wondering if there is anyway to get a download which will make it compatible (I don't even know if such things exist) or if i'm able to download a Mac compatible version and use my old serial number? or am i stuck having to fork out to buy another copy? Please help....

    this is not the Elements Forum.
    but to answer your question Adobe does not make software that will run on both platforms its either or. you will need to buy a Mac version.

  • New install of Photoshop elements for Mac 6

    I have the downloaded trial version on my new Mac. I now want to install the copy I bought. When I do so the first thing I get is an error message.
    JavaScript Alert
    Critical errors were found in setup Incompatible payload already installed Please see Setup log file for details.
    Can someone help me fix this problem. It is very frustrating.
    Thanks,
    Karen

    You should have run the uninstaller from the download for the trial. At this point, get rid of as much stuff as you can find (don't forget to check hard drive>library>application support), then download and run this:

  • Photoshop Elements for Mac

    I purchased an HP Printer that came with Adobe Elements 11 bundle.  The software is only for Windows.  HP referred me to Adobe.  Adobe customer service referred me to forums.  Any suggestions on how I can get the version for my MAC?

  • An updated photoshop elements for mac?

    I just got a mac and found out that the latest update that is available for a mac is PSE6,  and was wondering if a PSE7 or PSE8 is coming out that will be mac compatable? thanks

    Well, you can forget PSE 7, that's for sure, if Adobe hasn't said anything by now. The past few years they've only been updating the mac version on the even numbered updates, so presumably there's hope for PSE 8, although if they do it's anybody's guess as to when it will come out.

  • Photoshop Elements for Mac - Not responding

    I have had PE 12 for about 6 months on my MAC (1.5TB, free, 32 gb ram,) . All has been good. All of a sudden, I cant get the program to work - it just gives me spinning wheel of death.
    I DID remove the program via the S/W, and reloaded, and same issue. I cant access the File menu to try and repair the catalog. It just goes to spinning wheel.
    I feel like Im sunk ... can anyone help?
    Thanks,
    Chuck

    Ok, thanks so much for your continued patience.
    I have repaired permissions, unistalled PE 12, reinstalled under another admin user (seems to go ok - but does not load a library)
    I switched users and tried to do a clean backup once PE 12 started under my username - but right after the prompt for revconnecting files - it gave me a spinning wheel.
    So i inderstand that my pictures and videos are srtill intact, but Iahve 30,000 + of these tagged and organized to the nines. My photos are like looking for a needle in a haystack without PE.
    So I dont know how to proceeed next. Do I delete all catalogs and replace from my most recent backup? Is there any software support Adobe Provides for this type ofd issue? My concern is if I delete my catalogs, and start a new from the backup and the program is the issue (not the catalog) I just fell back another month with my cataloging, importing and tagging.
    I've had minor issues before through v2 - v11, but this is killing me.
    Thanks Barbara.

    looks like last date on document is around May of 2013.
    Note that even there
    Spanish is not an included language for "Photoshop or Adobe Premiere Elements".
    Curious.
    I suspect only Adobe has the answer for no Spanish version of the product. You could contact Adobe via Adobe Chat to determine what workaround, if any, exists for those wanting a Spanish version of the product.

    I have just installed Photoshop Elements for a MAC. MY photos were in iPhoto, I have 47,000 pictures and my drive on my Mac laptop is not large enough. I store my photos in iPhoto on an external drive. Can I store all my photos on an external drive when using Photoshop Elements? If so, in what format should they be stored in? I do I move them from iPhoto to the new storage location? How do I call them up in organizer? And how do I call them up to Edit? I do not want to store any pictures on my Apple Mac laptop. I want to store pictures on several external devices.

    Yes you can store images on an external hard dive and have them referenced in Organizer. It’s best to export copies to separate folders/subfolders and that will ensure iPhoto does not get corrupted.
    Alternatively you could continue to use iPhoto with the Elements Editor set up in the iPhoto prefs as your external editing app. Then there is no need to use Organizer and no need to duplicate your images.
    You can then call up photos directly from iPhoto as normal with the additional option e.g.
    Double-click on a thumbnail to edit in iPhoto editor.
    Control (right) - click on a thumbnail to edit in the elements app.
