Best version of Photoshop Elements

Can anyone tell me which version of PSE is the best to use with SL? Until yesterday, I was running PSE3 on Jaguar. I now have a new computer running SL and I use PSE a lot. Seems with everything I've read, I haven't been able to determine the best version. Thanks for your help

I did not upgrade to SL. I actually had someone buy me a brand new computer running SL!
Yes, that's what I meant. Sorry I wasn't clear: if you do an upgrade to SL on a computer that had PSE 4 on it, PSE 4 will keep running, but it's very hard to cajole it into installing from scratch in 10.6.
Enjoy your new computer!

  • Best way to organize several versions of Photoshop Elements to conserve disk space?

    I have Elements 9, 11, and now Version 12. I am wondering if I should import into Version 12's Organizer all of my previous photo files, then delete or uninstall the older versions of PhotoShop Elements?
    Currently running Windows 7 - 64 bit with latest SP installed. I would like to try and keep the hard disk storage fairly lean, and can't help but wonder about the space that is being taken up by having all of these versions of Elements installed! Any advice would be welcome.  Thanks for your replies and insights!

    Thank you so much for your input! I sometimes feel that I must be increditable stupid as I try to get BOTH organized but also learn how to use all of the features found in Photoshop Elements. Part of the reason that I say this, is because I have always been pressed for time, so I try & do one most pressing thing, that usually doesn't turn out quite like it was described it would or could be, and then I'm off to take care of more pressing issues, and don't get back to trying it after days or weeks have passed, so its kinda of like starting all over again.
    Again, thanks for your reply and input!
    Sincerely,

    The organizer does not store your photos, only links to their locations on the hard disk. So all your different versions will be looking at the same image file, so no duplication of the photos themselves.
    If you find yourself using features in 9 or 11 that were removed in later versions (e.g. interactive photomerge, magic extractor, lighting effects etc ...) I'd be inclined to leave them installed unless you are critically short of disk space.
    Cheers,
    Neale

  • Which version of Photoshop Elements is best for for my old Mac G4 iBook?

    Which version of Photoshop Elements would work on my trusty old Apple Mac iBook G4 14-inch laptop?
    The newest Mac version of this application, Photoshop Elements 6, requires 64 MB of VRAM but my G4 only has 32 MB. (regarding other system requirements, my G4 has 768 MB of memory and a 1.2 Ghz processor, and runs Mac OS 10.4.11.)
    My plan is to go to Ebay and buy some older version of Photoshop Elements but I wanted some direction as to which older version would be best.
    Thanks.

    I have the same issue. My girlfriend bought Photoshop Elements 6, but her iBook G4, which is maxed out on conventional RAM, only has 32MB of video. She bought PE 6 as the Apple Store guy told her it would work on a iBook G4. He clearly did not realizing there were some  iBook G4's made with 32MB and some with 64MB of video RAM. But before we break the shrink wrap on the box, which would make it unreturnable, it would be nice to know if anyone has gotten PE 6 to run on a  iBook G4 with only 32MB of RAM. I'm more concerned with whether it works, than whether it is optimal. So, does anyone know if PE 6 will run on a iBook G4 with 32MB of video RAM?

    I would go to the Adobe web site and post that query and also check the FAQ's on this page:

  • What versions of Photoshop Elements are compatible with Windows 8?

    What versions of Photoshop Elements are compatible with Windows 8?

    Microsoft advises that all versions of PSE except versions 1, 3, 5 & 6 will work with Windows 8. The best option is a new computer with W8 and then do a clean install of Elements. Some difficulties may arise if upgrading the operating system on top of existing software. In those circumstances make sure you have your original disks or your download package, in case a re-install is necessary.

  • What version of Photoshop Elements came with the Epson V500 scanner?

    What version of Photoshop Elements came with the Epson V500 scanner?
    Will Photoshop Elements 13 work with the Epson V500 on Windows XP and Windows 8?

    Hi,
    I don't have a V500 but the data sheet for it says that it came with PSE 5 for Windows - unless they released a newer package.
    PSE 13 will NOT run on Windows XP - you need Windows 7 or 8.1
    PSE 13 doesn't support the Twain interface on 64bit systems and so is unlikely to support the V500.
    The last release that might work for you is PSE 12 but keep in mind that there will not be any more updates for that version.
    Your best bet is to download the trial version and test it on your system. If it works you might still be able to find PSE 12 for sale in some of the stores.

  • Which version of photoshop elements works with yosemite

    which version of photoshop elements works best with Yosemite, PSE 13?

    Actually versions pse 6 through pse 13 work on mac os x 10.10 Yosemite, but pse 12 and pse 13 might work better, since they are 64 bit applications and can use a lot more ram than pse 6 through pse 11, which are 32 bit applications and only use a limited amount of ram somewhere around 3 gbs of ram max.
    You might as well get pse 13, since it's the current version adobe sells.

  • Version of Photoshop Elements that will works with Windows 7

    A few years ago I purchased a Canon scanner 8800F with a bundle that included Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0.2. I recently updated to Windows 7 64 bi,t and have had nothing but trouble trying to get it to work. I have tried removing it and reinstalling, but it just does not work as it did in XP..
    I would like to purchase a newer version of Photoshop Elements, but I'm not sure which version will work. It does not have to be the latest version.
    Hope someone can help. Thanks.

    Any version from 10, 11, 12 or 13 will work on Windows 7.  You can download the trial versions from this link and see which one you like most:
    <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
    When you have decided which one is best for you, you need to go to Amazon website and buy the boxed version and when it arrives, all you need to do is to use the serial number from the box to activate your trial version.  There is no need to reinstall anything again.
    Amazon may not have version 10 and 11 so please search for the version they have before installing any trial versions.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why did my install of an older version of Photoshop Elements fail?

    I tried to install a 2001 version of Photoshop Elements, but it failed to install stating that "Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later is Required." I have Windows 7, so therefore I should have at least Internet Explorer 9. Also when I tried to install it on my MAC it also failed stating that "Install failed because Classic Mode is no longer supported." So why can't I install this program on my MAC or Windows 7?
    I just bought this off eBay hoping to score a deal on an older program to use and get familiar with before installing a newer version and finding out I didn't like it or it wouldn't meet my needs. Any help in this manner is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    First off, you must be referring to a very old version of Photoshop Elements, not even sure it is version 1. Learning that will not help you very much when you try to go for the latest version - it will be like starting again.
    The old version did not know anything of the later versions of Internet Explorer and the installer gets confused. You can trick it by doing some registry edits (see following document) but I strongly advise against it unless you are very competent with computers. Get things wrong and you could kill your system.
    Photoshop Elements (PSE) knowledge base.
    In addition to the level of Internet Explorer, you will run into problems if you have large disk drives.
    I'm not a MAC expert but the older versions of Photoshop Elements were designed to run on PowerPC-based computers and will not run on systems later than MAC OS 10.6.x.
    If you are serious about getting to know Photoshop Elements, the best thing is to get the latest trial version. Download that and install it and you can try it for 30 days. If you decide you like it, then you could look out for bargains at your local store or online.

  • ACR version for Photoshop Elements 2.0

    I run PhotoShop Elements 2.0 on PC with Windows XP. What is the correct version of ACR to install? I shoot with a Canon EOS Digital Rebel.
    Thanks in advance,
    Jon.

    There is no version of ACR for Photoshop Elements 2.0. The Camera Raw technology was not introduced until version 3. Your best alternative would probably be to purchase the most recent version of Photoshop Elements. Then you would be able to take advantage of all the new technology in both ACR and Photoshop Elements.
    Be aware, however, that ACR is somewhat limited in its capabilities when running under Photoshop Elements. Even so, the latest version adds some very nice features.

    I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4).  The installation to my hard drive went fine so I attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and am uncertain as to how to "add" the Elemnts to my existing filter choices.  Please advise.

    I'm sorry but it's very hard to understand what you mean. What filter menu? In which program? Do you mean you're trying to use PSE as an external editor with some other asset management program? Which one?
