Can't edit photo in Elements 8.0 in CS5

Question

I recently bought a new computer with Windows 7. My old computer had Windows XP. I have Elements 8.0 and CS5 installed on both computers. On my old computer, in the Organizer, I was able to click on Edit, then click on Edit with Photoshop (in the drop-down menu), and the photo could then be edited in CS5. On my new computer, either nothing happens when I click on Edit with Photoshop or I get the spinning circle and then nothing happens. I want to continue to be able to edit my photos in CS5, then save the edited photos in version stacks in Elements. This worked perfectly in my old computer. I am using the exact same Elements 8.0 and CS5 in the new one. Can anyone help me???

Answer 1

Is the only problem you're having that a file won't open in Photoshop CS5 when you double-click a file, or choose Open WIth Photoshop CS5?  If so, you wouldn't be the first person to have this problem.  There is a way to reset the defaults for opening files via Bridge.
Which application (CS5 or Elements 8) did you install first / last?
I ask, because each of the two editors pretty much assumes it's the one you really want to use to edit photos, and whichever one you installed last would set things like "file open" defaults to point to itself.
And no, probably not a lot of people use both Photoshop CS5 and Photoshop Elements, so I doubt you'll get a lot of responses based on others' personal experience with these two together.
