Can't Install Photoshop Elements

I am attempting to install Photoshop Elements 10 on a Mac Pro running OS 10.6.8.
The software appears to install successfully. However, Adobe forces you to register. There is a window where I “Sign In” with my Adobe ID. I am using the same Adobe ID that I use with this forum. It does not work.
A window pops up that reads, “Photoshop.com services are currently unavailable.  Please try again later or check your network connections. Error 400.”   Can I use the Adobe ID that I use with this forum for installing Photoshop elements 10?  Do I need to create an additional, different, Adobe ID in order to install this software? Or is this just another Adobe installation bug?
Thanks

I find it shocking that Adobe would not keep that webpage functioning in "some manner" to avoid the software problems during installation. I researched this issue elsewhere on the Internet and found many other users with the same problem.
I was able to fix this on my own by changing a setting to something like “always start with editor”.  I have no desire to use the cloud in any way to store anything.
In the next several days I plan to attempt to install Adobe Premiere elements.  Can I expect the same issues of there?
Thanks for your help.

    How many computers can I install Photoshop Elements 12 on?

    No, if you mean can you copy the installed version over. That never works because PSE is a highly complex program that strews stuff all over your hard drive and you can never hope to find all the bits and bobs. You should deactivate it on the computer you no  longer need, then install from scratch on the new machine.

  • Can't install Photoshop Elements 11 licensed version because of trial version

    I can't install Photoshop Elements 11 licensed version because of trial version that is still on my computer and is not being completely uninstalled.  The intended folder to install has some files remaining from the trial version, and this prevents the licensed version from installing.  The intended folder from teh installer is Program Files (x86)/Adobe, but that has the trial version still there, which will not completely uninstall.

  • Can't install photoshop elements 9

    Hi
    Since updating to windows 8 I have had loads of problems with Flash player and can't install photoshop elements 9
    I have tried following the steps to uninstall flash but it didn't work.
    It says my flash is in chrome and I suspect I need the version for windows 8. However I just can't download it because it thinks I already have it.
    please help as I can't download any photos and my memory cards are all full!
    The error message I get when I try to install photoshop is
    "error 1327.Invalid Drive:N:\"

    Hm, this looks perfectly correct!  And I don't think the subst command is any different on Windows 8...
    Can you try the following (delete drive N: first if it already exists)
    subst N: /d
    subst N: C:\Windows
    If that still does not work, does Windows 8 Explorer have a Map Network Drive tool?

  • How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer with Windows 8?

    How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on my new computer with Windows 8?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • Can't install photoshop elements 11 on my Mac. Help!!!

    Can't install photoshop elements 11 on my Mac. I installed, moved a file (whoops). It stopped working. So I uninstalled it, then tried to reinstall but it wouldn't do it. Is it now locked or something? Can't find any way to contact Adobe for help (!!!!) so would be so so grateful for some advice.

    Hi Jeff,
    Great to hear from you! I don't have those answers but I can try
    again to reinstall and then let you know. Unfortunately I'm not around
    that computer at the moment. If it suits I hope I could send you an
    email in the next couple of weeks with that information and if you still
    have time you could let me know what you think?
    Many thanks for your time,
    Chloe

    Look under "Older versions".
    I guess it's not on your packaging because the software was sold before Vista existed.

    I would like to keep this program because it's always works great for me, and I do really do not want a buy a new one.  So he can really help me how would really appreciate it.  Thank you Ray

  • Can't install photoshop elements 12 or premiere elements 12

    just downloaded the above. when installing photoshop elements (64 bit) it gets as far as trying to install the organiser BUT then get error 1401 see below.
    when trying to install premiere elements 12 (64 bit) get so far then error 1406 - see below.
    have followed all adobe support webpage suggestions (clean boot, new user, deleted temp files.
    I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate.
    Thanks

    I think "error 1406" is an issue on Windows, when the software can't add something into the registry.
    Are you the admin or do you have the rights to read and write?
    Do you have a software like "WebRoot Spysweeper" or something like that on your pc? They often reject these kind of orders
