Can't open Photoshop Elements 4 or 6 - URGENT
Hi,
I use both Photoshop Elements 4 and Photoshop Elements 6 in the work I do. The last time I opened either program was Friday of last week. Since I last opened them I have made the following changes to my system:
Unistalled an older version of Adobe Flash Player
Installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player
Purchased and installed Registry Patrol (but have not run it yet)
Installed Identity Patrol (but have not run it yet)
Now today when I attempted to open Elements 4 - the opening page came up where you choose to create or edit, etc. I clicked on the edit icon and got the following message: "Unable to continue because of a hardware or system error. Sorry, but this error is unrecoverable." There was no application error messsage associated with this message.
Then I attempted to open Elements 6. It seemed to open okay, but then when I clicked on File-Open to retrieve some images - nothing happened. I get no error message - just no response.
PLEASE help! I need these programs to do my work.
Thanks in advance!
Barb

I changed my HD "C". After reinstalling P Element 2 I got a problem. I can't open Photoshop Element. Error message is "Your working disc is full" But I have 61Go free on "C" HD and more than 1To free on "D" disc.
Try resetting the pse 2 preferences and see if that clears things up.
reset preferences
Press and hold down the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after starting the launch of pse 2
Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to Delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings File

I can't open photoshope elements editor

Why can't I open Photoshop Elements 12? (Urgent!)
- I've tried everything I can think of. Opening from the source, compatibility check, re-installing, just about everything you can think of.
- My 7 days to activation is up tomorrow.
- No error messages.
- It tells me to sign in and register when I try to open the editor. I've registered both the products already. (Premiere + Photoshop, Premiere does the same thing) I sign in, and it tells me to wait a moment, then the sign in window closes and Photoshop never opens. The organizer will open however.
- I tried chatting with customer support yesterday but I was disconnected because of bad connection. But I've tried opening Photoshop with two other decent internet connections to no avail.
- Running on Windows 8
Please help, this is vital to my artwork and I spent $150 on it. I realize this may have nothing to do with Adobe and may have to do with my computer, but any advice/help would be greatly appreciated!Xjordirae you maybe facing a connection error. Please see Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html for information on how to resolve the error.

Can i open Photoshop Elements using Lightroom
Hi
I am using Lightroom 3
In the Menu Photo/Edit In
can I set it to open in Elements 10
And will it function as it does with Photoshop CS5. Ie open edit then save back as another version.

Photoshop does not appear as a primary editor and Lightroom won't let me set it up as a secondary one. It recognizes my Nik Software but not the Adobe. Stupid.
I suggest re-installing PSE.

Can't open Photoshop Elements 6 for mac
I've had Photoshop Elements 6 for mac for over a year and it was working fine although RAW was never able to update. About a week ago I went to open it and it would not open. I've tried daily, have done all Apple updates and all Adobe updates and it still wouldn't open. Then I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it still won't open. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Over the decades, I've found that HOW you start an application can make a difference. Applications that refused to run when started one way would work very well when started another way. Speaking as an ex-programmer, this shouldn't happen. But someone once said that in theory, there's no difference between theory and practice - but in practice, there is.
You might try to start Elements in different ways to see what happens.
Try to start Elements by going into the Applications folder and actually clicking on the Elements icon.
Try to start Elements by double-clicking on a picture.
Try to start Elements by going into iPhoto, selecting a picture, and clicking on the "Edit" button at the bottom of the screen. I assume you have told iPhoto to open Elements to edit your pictures. I've also told iPhoto to open a picture in iPhoto when I double-click on a picture in iPhoto. I didn't specify that above because I wasn't sure you had done the same.
At some point, you should realize that you're spending a lot of time trying to get an old version of an application to run. Elements 8 is out and is running very well on 10.6.3.
How much time are you willing to spend to get Elements 6 to work? I'm not trying to be a salesman for Adobe, but at some point, you should think of paying the money and buying a copy of Elements 8. -
I can't open Photoshop Elements 8 (Editor) Please Help
Hello,
I am new here and I am hoping I can get someone to help me out.
I've recently Downloaded Photoshop Elements 8 (trial) for my Brand New Computer (I use Windows 7)
in hopes of purchasing it after learning the program a little bit, well I'm glad I haven't purchased it yet since I've run into a problem
I cannot get Photoshop Elements Editor to open, I can however use the organizer.
I have already tried the following things in hopes of fixing this problem
Uninstal-Reinstal
Services, Flexnet and made sure it was on
Pushed Control Alt and Shift and clicked on the editor button
all with no luck.
I'm really hoping someone has had this problem before and can help me out, I was really looking forward to using this program since I also own Photoshop Elements 6 and the same thing happend (I found out it is not compatible and have since uninstalled it)
Thank you so much for your help

I can't open Photoshop Elements 11 after a redownload.
I am trying to redownload Photoshop Elements 11 on my new PC. There are 2 files to download. I can't download the second file, nor can I open it. I get an error message that says I am missing the "archive file part." What do I do?
Thanks for the suggestion. The program had already been transferred to the
new computer. I just couldn't find what i needed to run it, so i tried to
download it again. It is installed once again.
Thanks again! -

This is the second time in a week this has happened. Was able to repair it the first time by changing the name MediaDatabase.db3 to MediaDatabase.old
But what to do now?Hi,
Try after increasing the RAM amount in the preference settings .
Go to Edit menu >> Preferences >> Performance
Increase the RAM amount as much you can do. -
I tried to open Photoshop Elements 11. I got a message that components of the application are missing and that I needed to reinstall Photoshop Elements. I purchased the software by downloading it from Adobe so how can I reinstall it?
Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?
How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?
The D3200 requires at least ACR 7.1, which isn't compatible with any version of PSE prior to PSE 11, so no, you can't do this directly in PSE 9.
You could upgrade PSE, use the Nikon software to convert the files and then open the resulting images into PSE for further editing, or download the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of PSE can understand. -
