Adobe Photoshop Element 12 FREEZING on a Mac! HELP!

I have Adobe Photoshop Element 12. I am trying to select a portion of a photo and drag it onto another but everything I try to select it my photoshop completely freezes. Also, when I try to move a layer it just bounces back to it's original position unless I use my keyboard errors. What can I do to fix this!!! I've uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times but nothing is working! I am using a Mac. HELP!

Photoshop Elements doesn't respond when you use editing tools in Mac OS X 10.10

  • I just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 for a Mac and trying to install. I am at the point to enter the serial number but it won't take letters. What do I do and where do I go for help?

    If the code you are trying to enter has letters then you are not looking at a serial number.  A serial number only contains numbers - 6 sets of 4 numbers.

    You might be dealing with a redemption code.  This is especially so if you purchased it from a store or the like.

    You don't need a CD to download anything; just download & install the trial from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements, then activate it with your serial number.

  • Transfer from Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 on Windows XP to Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 on the Mac.

    I want to transfer from Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 on Windows XP to Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 on the Mac. My problem is I have lost my catalog and Windows XP.  I need help.
    I have installed the newest Mac version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 (PSE 12 Mac) and it seems to work fine but I have not been able to access my old (XP, PSE6) catalog file.
    I am working on a MacBook Air running OSX version 10.9.2.  I have been using Parallels Desktop 9 Switch-to-Mac-Edition™ to run Windows virtual machines.  I had been working for over a year running Photoshop Elements 6 on Windows XP virtual machine.  The XP operating system was updated to 2/28/14.
    When I installed Windows 8, the Parallels program initially offered me a choice of virtual machines, Window XP or Windows 8.  I could use the XP version to work with Photoshop Elements 6 as before and thought I could be leisurely about transferring my Photoshop operations to the Mac side.
    However, without my knowingly doing anything to dispose of Windows XP, I have “lost” Windows XP.  Perhaps it occurred when I updated to Windows 8.1.  At any rate, now I have access only to Windows 8.1. 
    To compound the problem the Time Machine backup program for the Mac was not backing up the XP virtual machine files as I had thought.   I have since corrected the settings but I do not have a copy of Windows XP nor of the Adobe Photoshop Elements catalog which I used in the past.
    Moreover, I do not have a workable Windows XP disk; the only one I could find is from Dell and it does not load on my MacBook Air.  I see Windows XP disks offered by Amazon for about $30 and have thought about buying a copy to help see if I could  accomplish the transfer of the catalog file to my Mac.  I would use XP only to accomplish this transfer.
    I am not completely confident that reinstalling Windows XP would actually enable me to do the transfer and I can foresee potential big problems. Therefore, before taking that step I thought that I would check with you to see if there is a way to find the catalog file and perhaps to modify it so that I could work in the Mac Environment.
    I have used Elements to improve and organize over a thousand travel and family photos taken with a pocket size digital camera.  Being a nonprofessional, I have edited mainly by cropping and using Quick Fix but have many hours invested.  Yes,  I still have the originals and probably could have redone much of that work with the time I have invested in trying to find the missing XP and catalog.
    I have found two large HDS files (Windows XP.hdd and Windows XP (2).hdd) that were created 7/15/12.  I suspect they may be important but am not sure what they are.   I read that HDS files are commonly Windows media digital rights management files, DRMs.   HDS files may also be used by hierarchical data systems.  Do the names suggest anything about Photoshop?
    Can you help me find the catalog and transfer it for use with the Mac Adobe Photoshop Elements 12?

    I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements on an older Mac...just bought Mac Mini and migrated all my files...but 4.0 Does not work....can I upgrade PSE 4.0 to PSE 13?

    Yes, any version of PSE qualifies for upgrade pricing, but if you're in the US you might want to consider running the trial  for now and waiting for the black friday specials, when the full version will be a lot less than the adobe upgrade price.

    If your program is Photoshop Elements, you have posted in the wrong forum. Your thread somehow has gotten posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
    Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
    It might be quicker if you just re-posted.

    A while ago, I bought Photoshop Elements 8 for my Mac which I don't use anymore and I was wondering how I could download it for my PC. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements to a Power Mac G5

    Hallo
    Is it still possible to buy a version of Photoshop elements to a Power Mac G5 with a PowerPC CPU?
    If yes - What is the version called, and where to buy?

    PSE 6 would be the latest version. Adobe doesn't sell it, but you might find a copy someplace else.
