Are there still bugs in Elements 4

Are there still bugs in Elements 4?
Looking at the feature list I am tempted to buy Elements 4. But I have read many reviews that indicate that it is "bug ridden"- most reviews are dated just after release. Have Adobe fixed the bugs now?
Advice very welcome...

Unfortunately you seem to be suffering from what has come to be known in PE4 terms as the "Goldilocks Syndrome". Do you remember when Goldilocks ate the porridge; one was too hot; one was too cold and one was just right. This went on with the beds etc. Well, it seems (from this very forum) that PE4 has a similar problem; if your computer is over specified (even with ALL the latest available drivers installed), it won't run properly; if it is under specified (even with ALL the latest available drivers installed), it also won't run properly, it has to be just right. There are people out there who's computers are just right, as we don't hear from them, obviously.
See if you can take your copy of PE4 back to the shop (they should have told you that a new one was coming out, well, if they were a good shop) and wait for PE7 which should have all the PE4 bugs worked out. They don't have to do much with the interface as it's already flawless. Very difficult to improve on the best. They just have to make sure it works on E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E's computer.
Have a look at Steve's PE7 introduction video's on the Adobe website. That's how a software should work.
Best of luck.

  • I have a 6 Plus, have original OS, is 8.1 ok to switch to now or are there still to many bugs?

    Have a IPhone 6 Plus, same IOS it came with. Is the 8.1 ok to download yet, or are there still too many bugs?

    iphone 6 came with 8.x.   From what I have been reading 8.1 was a positive update for people who already have 8.0.  Those people with 7.x, I'd wait.  People are still reporting:
    -- wifi problems
    -- video mirroring problems.
    -- slow down of their device.

  • After updating to ios 5, my calendar sometimes freezes when entering a new event. I have tried syncing but it doesn't fix the problem. Are there any bug fixes for this? Any ideas would be great thanks, I don't really want to have to reset everything!

    Try to reset the iPod by  pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches after installing new software or apps.

  • Are there still issues with HDMI with Fios and samsung Tvs

    Are there still issues with HDMI with Fios and samsung Tvs?  If so what samsung Tvs are affected? I have the HP T4254 42 inch plasma.  Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    HDMI issues abound with all providers and all TV manufacturers. Samsung does seem to have its fair share of the complaints, and not just with Verizon FIOS. Always make sure you have the latest firmware for your TV. Others seem to find success by reverting to component plus audio cables (still full 1080i). A quick search of these forum for "HDMI handshake issues" will reveal several threads for you to study. Also try other forums for other providers. Another resource is avsforum.com where you can specifically search for problems unique to your very model of TV.

  • Are there instructions to uninstall Elements 7 and Elements 10

    Hello,
    Could somebody please help me?  I purchased a new laptop and I have to return it because it's been giving me a lot of problems.  I have to uninstall Elements 7 and Elements 10 before I return it.
    Are there specific instructions and links to uninstall these 2 programs?
    Or, can I just use the Windows uninstall programs to completely uninstall them?
    Thanks for your assistance!

    Good morning, Barbara.
    Oh I see, I didn't know that.  I called the regular 1-800-585-0774 number.  I had to wait for 18 mins to get a regular person, which then put me on hold for another long time, then she transferred me - and the line just kept on ringing and ringing.  All in all, I waited for 1 hour and 5 minutes, until I went to chat with the Adobe lady - even while I was chatting with her the phone just kept on ringing.  So, no, I'm not impressed with the kind of phone support they gave me.
    Thanks for the number.  After your last message I decided to just uninstall the thing.  Then I uninstalled a couple of other things and ran a System Restore.  The laptop is all packed and ready to go, I'll be going to the post office to mail it back to QVC in a little while.
    Thanks for your assistance.  Have a great weekend.

  • Are there updates for photoshop elements 2.0 for Windows 7?

    I want use my photoshop elements 2.0 on my Window
    s 7 computer.  Are there updates for version 2.0?

    No updates for pse 2, but pse 2 should run fine on windows 7.
    (pse 2 came out long before windows 7, but runs better on vista and 7
    than any recent versions of elements, go figure)
    Install as an administrator.
    The only exception to this is if your hard drive is bigger than 1tb,
    then pse 2 probably won't work unless your version of windows 7
    can use the virtual xp mode.

  • I have uninstalled, downloaded latest and installed but it still doesn't work. Why are there still files leftover even after manually removal whatever I could?

    I am a Windows 8.1 user. I have followed instructions found online. But still nothing works.
    McAfee is still saying Firefox is untrusted and will not run it.
    I have managed to delete some folders containing Firefox but there are some still remaining.
    Why?
    There was never a problem before today.

    Hi, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/uninstall-firefox-from-your-computer this article] will help you to completely remove Firefox.
    You should ''only'' download Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/ Mozilla.]
    If McAfee is still not allowing it, you may need to look at the settings within McAfee.
    Hope that helps.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    You can also try deleting all music by:
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • Are there issues with Photoshop Elements 4.0 and Internet Explorer 8.0?

    I recently upgraded to IE 8.0 and got a message that My catalog.psa file was missing.  I recreated this file and then was able to open the organizer.  My original tags, collection etc. were missing.  I have done a search for any.pas file and cannot find the original extensive file I had that must have had about 2000 photos organized in that catalog.  Because of Outlook Express issues at the same time of the IE 8.0 upgrade Microsoft backed out the IE 8.0 to IE 7.0 and this did not help me to restore my original My Catalog.pas file.  I see two psa files associated with 4.0 : My Catalog-undo.pas and My Catalog.psa. If I tried to select the My Catalog-undo.pas I get the following message...There was a problem opening The Catalog named "My Catalog-undo.psa.  Another user or application may have the catalog open, or one or more files may be missing, out of date, or damaged.  The ODBC data  source reported the following error:  "[Microsoft] ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]  The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query IdTable.'  make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.*    Attempt to compact and recover this catalog, then open again?     OK    Cancel
    Please help me understand what i must do to get my original My Catalog file installed.  Thank you.

    "I recently upgraded to IE 8.0 and got a message that My catalog.psa file was missing." Aside from the fact that IE 8.0 has nothing to do with PSE, I am extremely skeptical that the upgrade to IE 8 gave you an error message that your My Catalog.psa file was missing.
    Your catalog may have been accidentally moved or deleted, but I refuse to believe that it has anything to do with IE 8. By now, there are many PSE users who have upgarded to IE 8, and I hear no complaints from them.
    When you did the search, did you search in hidden folders? Usually, PSE puts its catalog into hidden folders, so you need to make sure you search hidden folders.
    If you can't find the catalog file via searching in hidden folders, you might want to look in the trash can, or if that fails, try something called an "undelete utility" which may be able to recover erased files. There are freeware versions you can download.
    As you discovered, you cannot recreate catalogs. Which means that you need to make regular backups of your catalog file and your photos, so if something accidentally happens to your catalog, you still have a recent copy. I am assuming that you have not done so. I am also assuming that whenever your fix this problem, you will begin making regular backups.
    Good luck.

  • Are there still problems with the free Iwork trial when you then buy it?

    Hi all,
    new macbook user - it's brilliant by the way, and first post on here so hi all.
    Saw this thread via a search, and saw similar points on an Amazon review:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2202953
    Does anyone know if this problem still exists (thread was some time ago) or can I download the free trial without worrying (would like to do some work this weekend and dont want to wait for delivery of the software - I def plan to buy it).
    Apols if the topic has been recently covered, please direct me to that if so
    Thanks

    Apple made a decision which boggles my mind: there are two versions of iWork, one you purchase online getting a serial number you apply to the demo. The demo contains the full contents of the program, you lose nothing by purchasing the program this way. The other version of iWork is a boxed copy, the same as the demo+serial# except that this version requires no serial number. Mixing the two creates unhappy people
    If you download the demo and then purchase the boxed version you must remove the demo (and all support files and preferences associated with the demo) before installing the disc copy. If you don't, the program thinks you need a serial number and continues working in demo mode until it expires.
    If you can't wait for the box to arrive, why not just download the demo and purchase the serial# online from Apple?

  • Are there still two different InfoViews?

    Through BOE XI R2 there were two InfoViews: the "standard" InfoView and an SAP InfoView. Is that still the case? If it is, what is the URL for the SAP InfoView? We're currently using http://servername/InfoViewApp in an SAP BW environment.

    I assume we talking about XI 3.1 here.

  • Are there practical limits on elements organizer catalog size?

    I have 90K items in my PSE11 organizer catalog. I'm running Win8 and I'm getting nervious that catalog size will become an issue. Backing up the catalog is cumbersome since it is 337G. If I need to break it up into smaller pieces, what is the best way to do this? Is there a bridge or link between catalogs? Thanks

    and:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Merging_Catalogs
    The only real problem with big catalogs is what you have found : it's long and tedious to do backups. From the above links you can see that it's a bad idea to split catalogs, unless there is nothing common within them. Contrary to Lightroom, the organizer offers no satisfactory solution to merge catalogs. And the size of the catalog has no real impact on the speed of your organizing.
    My suggestion would be to think about alternative backup procedures : anyway, if you want to upgrade to Lightroom, you'll have to choose your own backup system for picture files. LR only offers backups for the catalogs (database).
    - Once you know where your big catalog is stored (menu help / system info) it's easy to create a desktop shortcut so that you can save the catalog itself. That's very quick compared to the backup of all your files (several hours).
    - Consider using PSE incremental backups. I am not fond of them, but they are acceptable if you master the process : they save the database fully each time and let you restore to a given backup sesssion. Many users rely on incremental backups without understanding the process and are unable to do a complete restore in case of a big problem.
    - Consider using external backup tools (as if you were with Lightroom). They can be easier and they offer automatic and periodic backup workflows.  I am using Synctoy with Win7 and do periodic clones of my drives with Acronis
    - Continue to use the integrated backup procedure when you have to change OS, computer, drives... and migrate all your pictures and catalog.
