Adobe Elements 8 No longer Opening

I purchased a box set of Adobe Elements 8. I use it on my stand-alone computer. It connects to an online account/gallery where I save my personal images. However, Adobe Elements 8 no longer opens on my computer. Did Adobe somehow cause my Adobe Elements 8 to stop opening when it instituted its new Adobe Cloud products?

Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (please identify when you post) are standalone products that are not part of the Cloud

  • How to fix Adobe Elements 11 not opening Nikon D7100 raw files?

    Installed Adobe Elements last night and installed the Raw Converter 7.4.  Everything worked fine yesterday. Today it will not open the raw files. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem!

    Are these the same raw files or different ones?
    If using Nikon Transfer or other Nikon software ensure you have installed the version for your camera model as older versions of Nikon software can corrupt the latest NEF’s.
    Try testing by shooting a few new raw images and opening directly into Elements, without touching them.
    Also check that ACR 7.4 is properly installed, from Expert Mode.

  • Getting Adobe Elements 10 to OPEN on my computer

    I installed my purchased Adobe Elements 10 onto my external HD.  I can't get it to open.  What now?

    You need to install it on the computer you want to use it on. If you installed it on your external drive (while booting from that drive), you will need to boot from the internal drive and install it there.

    I have downloaded adpbe photoshop elements 12 cannot open 7z files

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, as has been stated, this is the Photoshop>General Discussions Forum, Photoshop Elements "big-brother."
    I will move your post to the Photoshop Elements Forum, where your link, and any e-mails subscriptions will follow.
    Also, Sulaco has provided you with the necessary info on handling the 7Z archived file format.
    Good luck,

  • "foxit" took a notion to auto update - Adobe will no longer open scanned .bmp files

    So, Foxit had apparently been installed on a users PC for some time. It decided to update itself over night? Anyway, the woman came in the next morning and Adobe Reader was no longer installed, assuming foxit had uninstalled it *so thankful*. Foxit would open the .bmp files and allow view as a pdf. Of course Adobe is what she was used to and needed.
    So,
    Re-installed Adobe reader XI
    Scanned files would open normally from .bmp and give an option to "save as pdf" - (I'm not sure what she was able to open the files in (im assuming adobe))
    After the Adobe re-install this will not work any more. I've taken the scanned .bmp file straight from the scanner and set it to .pdf and get error message " either not a supported file type or the file has been damaged. could have been sent as email and has been decoded incorrectly"
    Could this have anything to do with fox it changing something?
    *I've set .bmp file association to default to reader*

    I can't tell exactly what you have going there but Adobe Reader does not and never has opened .bmp files. So whatever you were using to open the bmp and save to pdf is what is having the problem here. That wouldn't be Adobe Reader but something else.

    You can't just take a .bmp file and change the extension to .pdf. That is why Reader is giving you that error.
    Assuming I understand what you are asking here...
    Also, I would strongly suggest that the user disallow updates like that happening when she doesn't give permission first. Set an administrator password that has to be entered before the update. Not doing that is a recipe for disaster.

  • My Premiere Elements 9 on Windows 7 no longer opens (it always did before); now at the welcome scree

    My Premiere Elements 9 on Windows 7 no longer opens (it always did before); now at the welcome screen it "blinks" once then hangs, without any of the components initializing- please help

    If that does not work, then I would see this FAQ Entry: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/792580?tstart=0
    It starts with a general checklist for getting PrE set up properly, then goes into some links on tuning up one's system and OS, and finally has links to many troubleshooting articles, plus tools to help one troubleshoot issues.

  • Since updating to Firefox 4.0.1 I can no longer open and populate fields in eith Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Readers wher I used to be able to.

    In earlier version of Firefox I could open a PDF file from my Insurance provider with some of the fields automatically populated. Since upgrading to Firefox 4 I can no longer open PDF file from this site.
    I have upgraded to Adobe Acrobat X and also Adobe Reader X in an effort to resolve this issue with no luck.
    I have changed the settings under tools/options to use Adobe in Firefox as well as use Adobe as default with no difference.
    I seem to recall a note of some sort when upgrading Firefox to 4.0 about compatibility with Adobe but cannot recall the details.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    I use Windows 7 64 bit operating system.

    The URL below is to Adobe's Acrobat update page.
    There you'll find each of the incremental updates to Acrobat 10.
    They must be installed one at a time in sequence. 
      http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    Now, if after attempted updates fail then you'll need to speak with your IT Department.
    You need your install of Acrobat 10 updated to dot version 10.1.7.
    Be well...

  • Can no longer open PDF files from my emails sent from other websites. Problem seems to correlate with automatic upgrade of free adobe software (from version 11 to Reader DC)?

    To configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open PDF files:
    1. Quit Internet Explorer(any other browser)
    2. Start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    3. Choose Edit > Preferences.
    4. Select Internet in the list on the left.
    5. Deselect(Uncheck) Display PDF in Browser, and click OK.
    6. Restart Internet Explorer

  • Because I can no longer open Adobe files, and have tried all obvious solutions, I've been told to defrag the Intel portion of my MacBook Pro. How do I do this?

    I never use the Intel side, and have never partitioned the MacBook Pro.

    I never use the Intel side,
    Not understood, Intel make the processor that runs your Mac, there is no other 'side' to your Mac.
    What Adobe application are you trying to open files with?

  • I re-downloaded my Photoshop recently and Adobe Bridge no longer displays my Nikon NEF files and Camera Raw will not open them.

    I re-downloaded my Photoshop recently and Adobe Bridge no longer displays my Nikon NEF files and Camera Raw will not open them.  I get a message saying that Camera Raw does not support my camera type but it always has in the past.  The bridge no longer shows the picture view of my NEF files.  These are Nikon NEF files from the Nikon 5100 DSLR camera.  How do I fix this?

    When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw which shipped with Photoshop - in other words you reverted to an older version of Camera Raw which does not support the D5100.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    The D5100 was first supported in Camera Raw version 6.4.
    In Photoshop, click Help > Updates to update Camera Raw.

    I just received Adobe Elements 9 and want to know how to find "Bridge" and open it.  How do I go about that?

    I don't think PS Elements ever came with Bridge.  And Elements 9 is way old.  Believe current version is 11.

  • Every time I try to open Photoshop Elements 12, it opens the Adobe login, after I login the program does not open:( Help please?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Adobe Premiere Elements does not open after installation

    Hello,
    I have written before last week. I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 and Adobe Premiere Elements 11.
    I had a trial version of Photoshop Elements 11 and with the code I could access the full version.
    However Premiere Elements did not open after installation. I did not had a trial version so I first downloaded the full program. I went through the whole installation process and everything seemed ok, no error messages. But when I tried to open Adobe Premiere Elements after restarting the computer it did not open at all. Nothing happened.
    I have de-installed and re-installed the program for a couple of times over and over again but with not result. Also tried to download the trial version first and also this didn't work. I checked my Quicktime and updated to the latest version.
    I use a Windows laptop: Asus Intel Core i5-2430M, 2,4 GHz
    I hope you can help me out!
    Thanks!
    Inge
