ACR 5.7 not compatible with PSE 6 or 7

Though the recently released ACR 5.7 works with PSE 8, it is not compatible with PSE 6 or 7. A number of people (including me) have observed that if you try to open a raw file in 6 or 7 you get:
Unable to use the Camera Raw plug-in. It is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements.
The accompanying documentation is an inconsistent mess about which versions are supported, variously implying that it works with 6 or later, 7 or later, or just 8:

I agree with John, there is certainly a mess and confusion
over the use of ACR 5.7 with PSE 7. I have tried to upgrade and got various error messages including the version incompatibility one. I did try both the 32 and 64 bit versions since I am running Windows 7 64 bit. However I have now reached a slightly different opinion since I am still able to open Raw files from my Canon G10 (which previously worked with 5.6) but cannot open my EOS 550D Raw files which suggests a specific code problem rather than a version incompatibility. Any comments or help Adobe?

I installed a new printer and now Photoshop Elements tells me I can't print. The error message is "The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements, or the saved printer is no longer available. You will need to check your printer settings before printing." I have uninstalled and re-installed Photoshop Elements, checked my printer settings and still I can't print a photo.

Hi ,
Please update to PSE 13.1

Stop the constant pop-ups telling me to get Firefox 5. Something I use all the time is not compatible with it so I do not want 5.0. I get a box about every hour.

Actually there are two things I use a lot that are not compatible with Firefox 5. I did switch to it and discovered the big problem, so I had to go back to my previous Firefox. One of them that I use constantly for my passwords is Roboform -- I don't remember which one but one of the most recent. I get a box in the middle of my computer about once an hour saying that I should switch to Firefox 5. It is driving me CRAZY. How can I make it stop?
Also, who has to make Roboform and Firefox 5 compatible?

Every add-on developer is responsible for updating their add-on as Mozilla releases new versions of Firefox. Check with Roboform for an update for their Firefox add-on.
You can use the Add-on Compatibility Reporter to try and "fix" that other add-on. <br />

ACR has worked with every 4.0 extension that I have tried it with on Firefox 5.0 - but there may be some add-ons where it won't work, and the add-on has to actually be modified by the original developer.

I have PSE13 on my system, Windows 8.1, 64-bit. It was functioning properly after installation and now I get these messages when I go to print: "The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements, or the saved printer is no longer available. You need to check your printer settings before printing." and then this statement: "Default printer could not be opened." I have reloaded drivers for both printers and made any upgrades possible. It was working fine before and now all of a sudden, nothing. Would prefer to have old PSE v.12 back, it worked with no problems.

My Photoshop Elements 13 doesn't recognize my Canon PRO-10 printer. I've tried EVERYTHING. Reinstalled all my software, didn't fix anything. Can anyone help?

Nikon D7100 Not Compatible with Adobe CS6

I recently purchased a new Nikon D7100 DSLR camera and was quite surprised to find out that it is not compatible with my Adobe CS5 Standard Edition Suite software.
From the little bit of info I found online, it appears that non-upgradable changes to the Camera Raw component between versions CS5 and CS6 have made my software incompatible with my new camera. This means that with my CS5 Standard Suite I cannot open RAW image files in Bridge or Photoshop.
The only two options I have found so far are:
[1] Upgrade my software to CS6 or CC: For me this is cost prohibitive.
[2] Use Adobe's RAW to DNG converter and then open the image files as DNGs in Bridge and Photoshop: It appears that the DBG converter is reducing the file size and this I assume (rightly to wrongly) that it might also be reducing the image quality. To facilitate maximum options in image post production, I want to maintain the extreme detail that RAW provides. I am not sure if DNG will retail the exact same level of detail and quality. Can anyone shed additional light on this?
[3] Are there any other option that I have missed that would allow me to upgrade the Camera Raw component of CS5 so that it is compatible with newer DSLRs like the Nikon D7100?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
irwin

You have not missed any options for CS5 opening the raw data, directly. The D7100 requires at least CS6/ACR 7.4 or DNGC 7.4 that will make DNGs that will open in older ACR versions.
DNGs may different in size from the NEFs due to differences in lossless compression or a different-sized embedded preview image or even missing Nikon-only metadata in the DNG. In other words, the photosite values for the sensor data should be preserved but the packaging of, or the other data around, the sensor data may be different.
The cheapest option to make PS work with the native raw files is likely PS-CC for $10/month as part of the Photography Plan.
Another option is to purchase (serial number version) or rent (CC Photography Plan version) Lightroom and use it to do what you’d normally do in Bridge and ACR, and then use Edit In Photoshop w/in LR to do finishing touches in your older PS. This option renders a TIF or PSD to disk with all your raw-file adjustments and then passes this file to PS for further editing. The one caveat with buying the serial-number LR is that a new version of LR is probably about ready to come out and waiting until that new version is available would save money.
One thing to consider is that the PS-CS6/ACR 7.x has a new toning model which is an improvement for most images and you don’t have access to that if you’re not using at least CS6.
The reason Adobe doesn’t add new camera support to CS5 (and CS4 and CS3 and CS2 and CS and 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) forever is because they want to be paid for their work, and if every camera update was free forever people would only buy PS, once, and would keep using that without paying anything more until maybe the OS on their computer wasn’t compatible, anymore. This is one reason Adobe went with CC, so people would pay a little continuously and this constant cashflow would better match Adobe paying their employees continuously, instead of having to budget for the future based on how many new customers might buy an upgrade every 1.5 years or so.

Print Studio Pro plugin is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 Editor for Mac

It appears that the latest version of Print Studio Pro PlugIn is not compatible with the Editor version of Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac as available on the App store. The install gives an error saying that it did not find a supported version of Photoshop Elements. This error has been reported before for Elements version 12 but was reportedly fixed in the latest version of Print Studio Pro. Now it appears that this version may support Elements 12 for Mac but not the Editor only version from the app store. Any suggestions for work-around on this?

"Any suggestions for work-around on this?"
No!
Not untill Mac and Adobe and Canon get their collective acts together. Mac (Apple) has the bad habit of upgrading their stuff and not being forthcoming with the particulars given to 3rd party companies like Canon and Adobe.
Besides the cost difference of Mac's the compatibility issues are it's worst features.

ACR update for Canon 550D with PSE 7

Which version of ACR will recognize my 550D with PSE 7? Or must I buy PSE 8.

Thanks,
The workaround works although the dng files after conversion are smaller as the original cr2 files. Is information lost?
ACR 5.6 is not recognizing the cr2 files from my 550D and ACR 5.7 can't work in PSE 7.
So if one insists working with the original cr2 files (as you should) PSE 7 costumers has to buy PSE 8.
The usual marketing policy. A shame.

Elements 12 is not compatible with newer high definition, high resolution screens.

After many, many hours of troubleshooting on my own, asking questions and time on the chat, Adobe finally told me that Elements 12 is not compatible with my screen. No apology, no offer of refund, no indication when a fix might be available.

Looks like it exceeds PSE 12 System Requirements.

my computer says that this version of photoshop elements is not compatible with windows 7. What do I do?

Care to give us some details of exactly what it is that you're trying to do? Telling us the version of PSE would also help.

IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open. So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

Maybe. See:

I need to silently upgrade from 3.5 to 7 but get an error message after 7 install. Platform version 7.0 is not compatible with minVersion = 1.9.1

I'm trying to silently upgrade my environment to FF 7. I've gotten the silent install working great, it puts in my Proxy Server info, reassigns the home page and all that. But, the last version we pushed out was FF 3.5. If a user had that on their PC and they run the FF7 install, they get weird messages when clicking on the icon.
XULRunner: Error: Platform version '7.0' is not compatible with minVersion >= 1.9.1 maxVersion <=1.9.1
Another message they get is:
AutoConfigAlert:
Netscape.cfg/AutoConfig failed. Error: pref failed: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.setBoolPref]" nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame :: prefcalls.js :: pref :: line 70" data: no]
This is on Windows XP

Do you have other virtualization or security software that might protect .ini and possibly other files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) and prevent Firefox from updating them properly?
You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
