Adobe photoshop Element 8 Tech support

tell us if you had similar experience
I had element 6 and upgraded with 8 with windows XP
now I got a new computer with windows 7
and tried to install the 8 to my new computer
everything went ok till I found out I could not use the Adobe e-mail to send the confirmation code to my Gmail address (still works fine with Outlook)
I worked with the Adobe tech support for 3 days
with many case numbers and transferring from tech support to "installation specialist" to "imaging Department specialists"
including holding on a speaker phone for 90 minutes (enough to finish my dinner)
the " imaging specialist" refused to connect to my screen to install
and told me he can fix my "common problem" that will cost me $39
after some more waiting, his supervisor told me it is not an installation problem, and therefore not covered for an old issue of 8
would been covered if it was 9
I contested it is an installation issue
he said it is an "after installation" issue
so, what is your experience with Elements tech support staff?
My niece is an Apple fanatic who recommended the element
Should I stay or not with elements?
i am just an average "photo guy" for my grandchildren and make 13x19 Grand's calendars and photo prints where I use the Element 8 to edit
thanks for listening

There must have been a problem with Adobe confirmation program
All 14 attempts I made for the previous 4 days been answered today between 7:14 to 7:42 am
14 "Adobe Photoshop Elements Photo Mail E-mail Verification"
from [email protected]
arrived altogether saying;
"Thank you for using Adobe Photoshop Elements.
You will be asked to verify this e-mail address before sending e-mail directly from Photoshop Elements. Please enter the code below when asked for your "Verification Code" after choosing to e-mail your photos.
  Verification Code: "
So, I changed Express back to Adobe e-mail, and got a new verification number. And got verified and mailed a picture.
So far so good
but half an hour went by, still waiting for my picture to arrive
anyone can help?

  • Adobe photoshop elements 12 tech support for program errors in producing contact sheets

  • Does Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 support .jpg file enlargements

    Does Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 allow you to enlarge .jpg files?

    Explain exactly what you mean by distorting?
    If you mean that the resized image is looking 'squashed' or 'stretched' that means you are resizing in a different ratio to your original. No photo editing software will allow you to resize to a different ratio of Height/Width without distortion.
    Example:
    Original Image - 6 x 4, ratio 1.5:1
    Resized image - 7 x 5, ratio 1.4:1 - this will be slightly distorted.
    Resized image - 10 x 8, ratio 1.25:1 - this will be significantly distorted.
    If this is your problem then use the crop tool, entering your desired final height/width dimensions. You will lose either some of the top/bottom or left/right depending on how you crop and whee you drag the crop mask, but the end result will not be distorted.
    If you mean that you resize the image and it starts to look blurry and edges have the jaggies then there is just not enough detail in the original to support the level of enlargement you are looking for. I don't recall the resizing algorithms used in PSE4 but I don't think they were terribly sophisticated - you MIGHT get better results by performing many incremental enlargements of 10% at a time, this often gives a smoother result.

  • Does adobe photoshop elements 12 raw support files of camera OM-D E-M5 Mark II?

    I plan to buy this new camera and have Adobe elements 12 ,will I need to upgrade to read the files of Olympus
    OM-D E-M5 Mark II?

    I believe the said Sony A7Mk2 ILCE-7M2 (adobe calls it Sony ILCE-A7M2)  needs at least camera raw 8.7.1, so you can either use the 8.8 adobe dng converter or upgrade to pse 13, which would open those files directly without the need of the dng converter.
    (you would need to to use Help>Updates in the pse 13 editor to get the camera raw 8.7.1 plugin)

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Won't Stay Open!!!!

    Just got it Pricey Software Not Functing!!! Everytime

    Hi,
    On Win go to
    For Windows (32 bit), copy the Import-Export folder from:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\Optional Plug-Ins\
    into
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\Plug-Ins\
    For Windows (64 bit), copy the Import-Export folder from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\Optional Plug-Ins\
    into
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\Plug-Ins\
    *The version number is 11 or 12, depending on the Photoshop version you have installed.
    On mac
    copy the ImportModules folder from:
    //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements <version number>/Support Files/Optional Plug-Ins
    into
    //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements <version number>/Support Files/Plug-Ins
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.
    Alternatively,
    Try resetting the PSE preferences by
       1. Close Elements.
       2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Edit.
       3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    - Disable any anti-virus software just to confirm if it is not blocking PSE Editor.
    In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall.

  • I AM TRYING TO INSTAL THE ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENT 10, BUT IT COMES A NOTE SAYING TO GET THE ADOBE SUPPORT ADVISOR, I TRIED THEY SAY IT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED, I BOUGHT THE LICENSE AND A NEW APPLE COMPUTER AND NEED TO INSTAL IT,

    I AM TRYING TO INSTAL THE ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENT 10, IN A NEW APPLE COMPUTER, BUT IT COMES A NOTE SAYING THAT THE INSTALATION WAS NOT ABLE TO INITIALIZE, AND THAT  I SHOULD DOWNLOAD THE ADOBE SUPPORT ADVISOR TO DETECT THE PROBLEM.  I DID IT BUT IT SAYS THAT IS HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED,

    start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.
    if cc (win):  https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
    if, your error is:
    "Installer failed to initialize. File not found." or "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to missing files."
    first, rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.
    to find OOBE:
    64 bit win OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
    32 bit win OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
    mac os: HD>library>application support>adobe>caps
    mac os: USER>library>application support>adobe>OOB
    if that fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
    if you're using a dvd to install:
    copy the disc contents to a desktop directory and install from that directory.
    if you're using a mac:
    1. Try to Create a new user account in Mac with Administrator Priviledges.
    2. Login to the New user, Navigate to Mac HD> Application> Utilities> Adobe Installer folder, Locate products like Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and un-install them
    3. Navigate to User Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
    4. Navigate to Mac HD> Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
    5. Start the installation again.
    if everything applicable above fails, check your installation logs:

  • Apple! Please support Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 with iTunes!

    After upgrading Adobe Photoshop Elements from version 5 to version 6, pictures can not be synced. Please fix iTunes to support version 6. I have the latest itunes version 7.5.0.20 on windows.

    iTunes doesn’t support syncing with Adobe Photoshop Elements 6. Adobe made significant changes to the program’s internal database, which iTunes reads directly. Hacking the registry won’t work, since iTunes is expecting the older database format. Apple is finally starting to update its documents to explicitly state they only support versions 3-5, e.g.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305703
    My clumsy work-around is to export the desired photos from PSE 6 into a set of Windows folders and then sync iTunes with the folders. The likelihood that Apple will fix iTunes soon seems small.

    Hi ,
    Do you remember if you  have installed some software prior to this issue?
    Delete programs you never use.
    If the issue reoccurs in Clean Boot, but works fine in Safe Mode, the cause may be the disabled hardware drivers. You may narrow down the
    causes in Device Clean Boot.
    Device Clean Boot
    =================
    1. Click Start, type "devmgmt.msc" (without quotation marks) in the Search bar and press Enter.
    2. Expand "Sound, video and game controllers".
    3. Right click on your sound card and then click "Properties.
    4. In the dropdown menu of Device Usage, please choose "Do not use this device (disable)" and click OK.
    5. Please use the same method to disable other dubious hardware such as: internal modem, network card and CD-R drive. Please note some devices
    such as video adapter are not available to be disabled.

    Hi ...
    If you have anti virus software installed, you need to disable that in order to download apps.

    Just user to user....based on past and current history, Adobe Tech Support is not going to help you with a technical issue which is preventing you from using your purchased serial number for Photoshop Elements. Version 12 is not the current version. And, the Adobe Tech Support is limited even for the current version which is 13. If this matter involves a purchased activated serial number trapped on a crashed computer while you are trying to install on a 3rd computer, then probably Adobe Chat Activation can be of assistance. If that is the case and you want to explore that possibility, then click on the following link
    Contact Customer Care
    Photoshop Elements
    Adobe ID, Signing In
    Adobe ID, Sign In, Account Help
    Chat Panel
    If the above link does not hold its set, then you will need to navigate to the Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
    Are you getting one of those "too many computers with your serial number" messages? Then the above should apply to your situation.
    Before the above consider....
    a. For Photoshop Elements technical issues please post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your
    question got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum.
    b. Have you verified your Photoshop Elements serial number at the Adobe web site (http://www.adobe.com) - after signing in with your
    Adobe ID and Password, type My Products in the Search field and follow the path to your product in My Products. Click on Adobe
    Photoshop Elements 12 in your list to reveal the serial number.
    c. Do the install with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
