Why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing and then it says there is an error and closes itself

why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing then error and shuts itself down.

Three things you can try:
1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
2. Perform an SMC reset:

Photoshop is a program, Adobe is the company that sells it.
Somebody taking your money does not proof you have purchased a legitimate license …
While this may well have nothing to do with your issues you should post on the proper Forum and provide other relevant information (OS, hardware, …).

Adobe Photoshop Elements will not come up from the welcome screen

When I am in the welcome screen and press the organizer or edit button the program will not load and come up.

Can you try lanching them direcrlty :
Mac - Navigate to 'Go->Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11->Support Files->Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor'. Double click 'Photoshop Elements Editor'.
Win -
Win x64: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11 Win x32: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11
Right click on 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' and select 'Run as Admin'.
If still an issue try this for Editor:
1. Close Elements.
2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
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.
make sure the exe is not stucked in task manager by going in task manager and check for PhotoshopELementsEditor.exe file. Stop the process and try.
Thanks,

adobe starter edition has photo numbers by the picture such as DSCO0283.JPG , where can I find that number on the pictures in PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12--reason being that photoshop elements will not convert my catalog to version 12. If i had that number I could manually rebuild my collections into the photoshop elements 12, but all that i see in photoshop elements is dates and i have multiple pictures from the same dates. HELP! I

finally getting back to this project---adobe starter edition 3.2 is on a windows XP computer
ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12 is on our Windows 8.1 computer.
error messages--- had to give up trying to convert---I copied all our pictures to our windows 7 laptop and I installed adobe photoshop elements 12 (my bought program)
I wanted to try to convert there first. also I copied our catalog to this computer also. Everything was working fine I could see the collections just as they where on the XP computer.
then I tried to convert on the laptop. I believe the error said something about corrupt file, so I gave up that day. Next day I tried to open ADOBE STARTER EDITION 3.2 and it wanted an unlock code, no such code exists. and my copy of Elements 12 turned into a trial version which has expired. So I am a little hesitant to try to convert on the XP computer and mess up the existing catalog,
unless there is a fool proof way. I have tried manually making collections/ albums on Windows 8.1 and PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12 and coping pictures into the new albums. sloooow!!
I probably have about 4500 pictures and 150 collections/ albums to go. So any suggestions would be appreciated.

Which adobe photoshop elements will work on osx 10.5.8 platform

which adobe photoshop elements will work on power mac G5 Osx 10.5.8 platform Leopard

Hi John,
Thanks for you reply to my initial question

Photoshop Elements 10 was the last version to support OS X 10.5.8
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements- photoshop-elements.html
I bought photo shop elements 10 a couple of weeks ago and loaded it on to my computer which is Power Mac G5 running on OS X 10.5.8 Leopard. When I loaded the software on to the hard drive there seemed to be no problem. The file appeared as adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and included the sun flower icon.
Point 1:
When I open the file I have four additional icons (deploy - packages - payloads - Install) the install folder is red and has a no entry motif in white when you click this icon the massage comes up 'You can't open the application "Install" because its not supported on this architecture.
Point 2:
When I click on the sun flower icon Photoshop Elements 10 its takes me straight to Photoshop Elements 2 an old version that was transfered when I had to change the computer. If I click on the elements 2 icon it launches for a couple of seconds and an error message then comes on "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a programe error. Photoshop will now exit.
I would be most grateful for your assistance. Mac user North Yorkshire England

Adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version

adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version.HELP
If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful! My email: [email protected]
Good luck.
Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer? It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
<C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called: PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website. <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
Hope this helps.

My purchased download of Photoshop Elements did not work and I have been trying to reach a real person at Adobe. Has anyone ever been able to do that. If so can you tell me how to do that.

Adobe download assistant will not work on my machine. When i try to start it i get a message saying "Sorry an error has occurred. This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance." Any ideas what to do

Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion. It is totally non responsive to a point where i cannot work. all other CS5 programs seem to be running well so far. any advice? if no, then how do i revert back to Snow leopard?

I had real problems with all Adobe apps - it said I needed to install a version of Jave Runtime, but kept saying that I wasn't connected to the internet to complete the action. This was not the case - I was connected to the internet.
I followed this link : http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421 to install a version of Java and all Adobe apps fire up now. Haven't done much testing within the apps, but at least I'm further ahead than I was.
So thanks to the message boards for helping me out.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 stopped working - says serial numbers are not valid.

I have had Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 for several years and use it daily. All of a sudden today, it would not open and showed me the screen to try the 30 free trial or to enter my serial number. I entered my serial number and it gives me a red X and then tells me that my serial number is not valid. I contacted customer support and he asked for my serial number and then told me he can't help with this issue and I need to look in these forums for a solution. Anyone have any ideas?? I'm wondering if I uninstall it and re-install it, if it will accept the serial number then, but I'm thinking I'll lose all the preferences I have set up and have to go through and tag all my pictures again - and I have thousands. Please help!! It would be nice if the company could help. :-(

Most irresponsible, ignorant and unprofessional of that nincompoop who sent you to the forums for a customer service issue.
Unfortunately, only Adobe customer service can assist you with your issue. These are user forums; you are not addressing Adobe here. There's no one here who can help you.

Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer Stops Working due to Sony AVCHD files

Hello I installed Adobe Photoshop elements and have been having trouble with it crashing.
To solve this problem I deleted my Catalog and added a Catalog with only one folder.
This folder has photos, in JPEG and Sony .ARW format as well as AVCHD files.
I found that by removiing the AVCHD files from the catalog the SW would no longer crash.
This really is not a practical solution since my PC has many folders with many AVC files.
I am trying to see if there is a SW patch or another way to address this issue.
Thanks,

It might work but this is not a practical solution.
I have many picture folders on my pc and several of these have AVC files.
My intention was to use Photo Shop Essentials to edit my pictures. Unfortunately the "Organizer" app crashes when trying to work with my Catalog.
I have narrowed it down to only happening when there are AVC files in my folders. I have seen others have this issue and I found the issue by what they recommended.
Sadly if I am unable to get this to work with my current folders I will have to dump Essentials for another application.

Adobe photoshop elements 11 stopped working.

Photoshop elements 11 suddendly stopped working. I have worked with the program the last couples of years and never had a issue until now.
I have not change any settings in my computer. Windows 7 (64).
I have read in other forums, it may be caused by a windows update or antivirus. What do I need to do to have my software work again? I would really appreciate if you can help me resolving this issue.

I have exactly the same problem. After useing Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 for more than a year, I get the same error message after I chose the edit option. I have not used the program in a few weeks, so I cannot guess what other program was updated that might have affected the performace of Photoshop. But, Photoshop does work in Safe Mode. So, there is something that suddendly is in conflict. Unfortunately for me, the first things I tried were to remove and reinstall Photoshop a few times. Now my restore system option of Win7 is not available for a date far enough in history to get Photoshop to work again. I have removed all software that used to open at Startup. I have tried to open Photoshop as an administrator and also with various compatibility settings to now avail. I have checked the installation logs and there are no errors.
Seeing that the prevous forum post is from February 2014, I am assuming that no one viewing this forum is going to help me with this problem either, but I can try to remain optimistic. I'm out of other options for getting help. I'm not excited by the idea of reinstalling all my software again and the hours of my time that will take, especially when I don't even know that this will help.

The editing "Guided" mode of Photoshop Elements 11 not works!

Using the editing "Guided" mode of Photoshop Elements 11 the working progress line hangs at 75% and Guided mode not works ! The "Quick" and "Expert" mode, instead, working well.
Attention, please! I specify that I use Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 and I don't have AntiVirus or Firewall actived... I have already tried to delete all Preferences, all Elements 11 cache folders, etc., tried to uninstall and re-install the Software... but without success. I hope that you can help me.

About the editing Guided mode of Photoshop Elements not working.
My FINAL solution to the problem. (But I hope also for an Adobe intelligent patch...)
I finally understand why the the "Welcome screen..." and the IMPORTANT editing "Guided" did not work in Photoshop Elements 11 (or with Photoshop Elements 10); the "Guided" panel does not appear with the options but, on the right, the progress bar hangs at 75% of the options panel and the panel remains empty.
After days of hard work and after many attempts on the Adobe Troubleshooting, I realized that the problem depends by Mac OS X anti-malware functions (XProtect process). But I have not figured out why the issue did not showed running PSE into a new account; maybe, it is because Mac OS X still not intercepted always and blocked the old Flash Player plug-in, installed by PSE11. Examining System Preferences and Security Panel -> Advanced, you see the option that enables automatic control by Mac OS X for the Malware black-list.
As may be seen in the attached screeshot, if you open with XCode or with a text editor the file "/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/ Contents/Resources/XProtect.meta.plist" you can read that Mac OS X (from 10.6 Snow Leopard) inserted the old versions of Flash Player plug-in (minor of "11.3.300.271") into the black list plug-ins, to block they.
I do not understand why Adobe has left this obsolete "Flash Player.bundled" plug-in in Photoshop Elements 11 or 10! PSE11, in fact, does not use the "Flash Player.bundle" plug-in but it uses "AdobeSWFL.bundle", contained into "System_Disk/Library/Application Support/Adobe/APE/3.101/adbeapecore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/". Does maybe Adobe ignores, perhaps, the existence of a BlackList in Mac OS X that blocks the Flash Player plug-in prior to version 11.3.300.271? ... Is that really useful to install this obsolete Plug-In (for Mac OS X 10.4 - 10.5) if PSE11 works from version 10.6 "Snow Leopard" onwards?
The Flash Player plug-in installed by PSE11 is the old version "10.1.82.73" as you can read in it info.plist file (or in my screenshot attached here) and I think that if you use Mac OS X Lion or Mountain Lion you can delete it because, as we read in his file "Info.plist", the plug-in is only for Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5 ...
An hypothesis about the occasional occur of issue about "Guided" mode or "Welcome screen" not working is that PSE11, at start-up, makes a "program's call" to the old "Flash Player" plug-in installed by PSE11 and PSE10 and the system, peraphs, intercept this call through "xprotect" process that runs in the background; so, Mac OS X blocks the function of PSE11 based on Flash Player as, indeed, the "Welcome screen" and the editing function "Guided".
Or the problem lies in a behavior of PSE at startup that it due to old ACL permissions existing into Home's folders (because belong the previous Mac OS X 10.5 - 10.6 version). PSE thinks of having to boot the old Flash Player plug-in containded in APE. This would explain why PSE runs well and "Guided "PSE mode works if start-up creating a new account!
Note! Utility Disc does not correct, by default, the ACL permission in Home!!! Adobe, then, rather than suggesting to create new accounts ... must correct PSE by removing any reference to the old Flash Player plug-in. Otherwise, there is always the risk that Mac OS X prevents proper operation.
I tried to rename it or remove this plug-in and PSE11 always work well, but for pedantry, I preferred this solution:
- I installed the latest version of Flash Player from the Adobe site.
- I opened the package to "/ Library / Internet \ Plug-Ins/Flash \ Player.plugin/Contents/PlugIns/FlashPlayer-10.6.plugin/Contents /"
- I copied the four objects (Folder MacOS and Resources folder and files: info.plist and version.plist)
and
glued them in "Adobe/APE/3.101/adbeapecore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Flash Player.plugin / Contents /" overwriting existing ones.
I have one more doubt left: I have not yet enabled the iCloud option for the Photo Streaming and the iTunes Match sync; this functionalities was enabled in my old account when PSE did not working.. I hope that PSE11 will work well even when I will enable these features to sync with my Apple accounts...
