Can I run PSE 8 with Mac OS X 10.8.2? Install hangs at 'checking system profile'

Hi
I had to replace my iMac hard drive a few months ago and installed Mac OS X 10.8.2 (having been running something a bit older).  I have just tried to install PSE 8 from disc (which worked quite happily on my earlier OS X version) and it hangs when the install gets to 'checking system profile'.    Should it install or do I need to get a later version of PSE? 
Thanks

Don't think that this will work, despite PSE 8 not being that old. Undoubtedly some of the security and file system changes in OSX 10.7 and 10.8 are at play here thast the installer can't cope with... Consider getting PSE 11.

  • Can I run 2 monitor with one of the monitor having Full Screen for Elgato Eye TV?

    My mac mini has Elgato 'Eye TV' software that runs in 'Full Screen'.  I want to keep this setting & also connect another monitor to the macmini & use other Appilications on the other monitor?  Can I run 2 monitor with one of the monitor having Full Screen for Elgato Eye TV?
    My early 2009 macmini can run Mac OS 10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8

    Yes, run one from HDMI and the other from Thunderbolt/minidisplayport sockets. In EyeTV Preferences check the screen you want for full screen use and make sure your Dock is on the other one.

  • Problems running PSE 8 in Mac

    Greetings:
    I am running into problems trying to successfully run PSE 8 on an iMac.  I have tried installing from the CD, a trial version download and have repeated uninstall and re-install thrice atleast with the same issues.  When I organize my pictures in Bridge CS4 and want to edit in PSE 8, I get the following error msg: 
    "Some of the application components are missing from the application directory, Please re-install the application". 
    Although the msg seems self explanatory it is not specific as to what is missing and none of my attempts to uninstall and re-install has eliminated this problem.  I have seen a few others have posted this error msg for different applications other than PSE 8 on Mac.  If any of you have run into this and successfully recovered from this error, I would be glad to hear your suggestions.
    Regards,
    A frustrated PSE 8 user

    Uninstall PSE 8 (use the uninstaller from applications>Adobe PSE 8.0), then run this:

    Create a new admin user and try reinstalling from there. Repair permissions after installing.

  • Running PSE 11 on Mac 10.8.3 but get Online Services could not be initialized, please reinstall.

    Running PSE 11 on Mac 10.8.3 but get Online Services could not be initialized, please reinstall.  Have reinstalled but get same message. Organizer WILL open but I'm wondering what I can do to fix this?

    Where are you getting this message? In the organizer, the editor, or the welcome screen? If in the organizer, try going to the preferences>partner services and clicking the Refresh button.
    If from the welcome screen, launch the editor from the applications folder and make a dock icon for that, and skip the welcome entirely. The visible file in applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 is not the editor. You want this one:
    The one at the top level is an alias for the welcome screen, which is best avoided.

  • Can i merge bootcamp partion with mac using parallels

    I installed win 7 via bootcamp, now i installed parallels and using win 7 via my bootcamp (parallels). since i installed parallel can i merge bootcamp partition with macintosh hd, without reinstalling win7 for further use

    Not sure check with the Parallels helps section and or there forums.
    The reason I say this is if Parallels Created a Virtual Machine File for that BC install then Yes you can use Boot Camp assistant to delete the Windows Partition and that will merge it back into the Mac partition and not disrupt the Parallels VM of Windows.

  • PSE 8 Setup hangs (80% complete) with checking system profile message

    Hello
    I have a  Elements 8 installation problem (Setup hang with checking system profile message). I'm running Mac OS 10.6.1 on a MacBook Pro  (Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz, Memory: 4 GB) purchased mid 2009. I have contacted Adobe support and tried all of their suggestions (open case #181253338). I did reinstall OS x 6.1, ran CS$ clean script, ran cache clean tool, and many reboots. I noticed in the discussions that the install of OS X 6 has, at times, corrupted some files creating install problems.  I am at a loss and would enjoy any suggestions on what to try next.

    Hi,
    Attached are the logs from \library\logs\Adobe\Installers
    I cleared out the logs, ran PSE Setup until it hung then did Force Quit on
    Setup and attached the logs.
    Thanks for your attention,
    Gary

    Hi,
    Can you please send in the log files which can be obtained from the below
    location:
    \Library\Logs\Adobe\
    There must be log files for the PSE 8 installer. Delete them once and then
    try to install PSE 8 again, if you are not able to then attach the newly
    created log files in the forum.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • How can I set to boot from MAC OS by default after I installed Windows?

    How can I choose to boot from MAC OS by default after I installed Windows? I have a MacBook Pro Leo 10.6.8. I used bootcamp to install Windows XP SP2, but now if I don't press the option key it will start up with Windows, and I don't want that. Thanks for any help.

    Select it in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.

    The Prob is def with Mac 10.5.1 Get bootcamp install XP and wireless works.
    I have all the problems everyone is having on here as well. But you know what? I Boot into XP and wireless works fine. Apparently apple makes better drivers for Windows then there own OS I thought mac was suppose to just "work" Then to find if I login with xp it just, "works" what am i to believe now haha
    I really hate using XP but its the only way I can connect to the net consistently ...
    My mac is all like "Wait i found a connection..." "ok i found it" "ok let me connect" "ok im connected... but... wait not really" "i know it looks like im connected but I am going to make you sad"
    It does make me sad
    BTW I have tried every single option/config possible. Nothing works. BC you know what? It should just "WORK"
    Ill sit humbly on xp till this gets fix but for now just wait it out
