Can't open PSE 8?

getting error code 6  I was referred to forums for answers...is it just too old?

Try opening one directly in the Editor application by going to a folder, right-clicking on a CR2 file and choosing open with Photoshop Elements Editor. You may need to browse and navigate to the programs folder.
Your raw file should open automatically in Adobe Camera Raw where you can use the sliders e.g. to change exposure, white balance, brightness, vibrancy, clarity etc.
When you have finished making the basic adjustments click on the Open Image button and that will send the photo into the editor where you can use all the regular tools. Then choose File >> Save As to create a jpeg, PNG, tiff file as desired.

  • Can't open PSE, keep getting licensing agreement

    Since today, when I try to open PSE, I get a Elements Organizer pop-up that contains the licensing agreement.  When I click Accept, it keeps popping up over and over again.  Once in a while, it goes to another screen to enter my key.  I enter the key, then the licensing agreement pops up again, and I can't open PSE.  Why is this?  I could try re-downloading, but I have a lot of actions already loaded and don't want to have to do it all over again.

    I'm so totally frustrated!  I have deleted PSE and PE, used Microsoft Unistall Utility to try to get rid of any bits and pieces of these programs, try to re-install, but the Adobe Wizard goes through the download, only to 'roll back', and tell me the wizard was interrupted before installation was complete.  Here are some pics of what I'm getting:
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • Can not open PSE 11 trial which I downloaded yesterday.

    Yesterday I downloaded Adobe PSE 11 as a trial.  I can not open PSE 11.  I also can not access the organizer.  The set up asssistant keeps downloading instead.
    Also, I read that PSE 11 will not automatically allow me to access my photos in LR 4.  How do I work around this?

    We need at least some system info and a better description of what is happening. Yes, LR and PSE use different catalog formats. You need to index your collections redundantly in both programs.

  • Can't open PSE 7

    I can't open photoshop elements, I keep getting the following error messages:
    Adobe Photoshop Elements(Editor) has stop working
    And then it says:
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    I have already tried to uninstal and the reinstall the program. Did not help anything. I just got a new computer with Windows 7. THe program worked for about a day and then I started getting the error message.

    Unfortunately, there are many reasons why PSE might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash.   Here are some steps you can take to try to fix the problem:

  • PSE 12 - Can't open catalog - some internal programming error. Can NOT open PSE 12 organizer

    Can not pass Catalog manager - Can't open catalog - sez an internal programming error occurred?????

    Yes, it seems like a problem with the main catalog.  I haven't seen a failed conversion before that didn't write a conversion log.  So there aren't many clues to go on.  I have just one more suggestion -- run the utility psedbtool on your PSE 6 catalog:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/
    Because you have both PSE 6 and 8 installed, you'll have to run it specially:
    1. Start PSE 6 and do Help > System Info to find the folder path of your PSE 6 catalog folder.
    2. Start a command prompt.
    3. Type these two commands:
    cd c:\psedbtool
    .\psedbtool -printVolumeTable > output.log
    4. Copy and paste the contents of c:\psedbtool\output.log here.

  • Can't open pse file

    Somehow a file got saved as "type 11" file & now I can't open it.
    When I right-click the file icon for properties, it says "opens with photoshop elements". Lies, lies!
    Please help!

    In the top right you will see editor. Click on it.
    Down the right side, choose full edit.
    Go to file in the top left and click open.
    Find your pse file in your pictures folder and open it.
    Now, save it as a jpeg. file.
    You should be able to open that in other places.
    A pse file (photoshop elements) can only be opened in the photoshop program.
    I hope this helps.

  • I still can't open PSE 11 since I purchased it weeks ago. Please help.

    I'm posting this here too because I don't get a response from anyone anywhere. I purchased PSE 11 a few weeks ago and I have yet been able to even use it. I don't even know who can help me and I can't even find a phone number. I try to open PSE 11 and I get this error: Could not open a scratch file because the file could not be found.
    I used to use PSE 2 and it was really simple. Open and go. But this new one doesn't even open. Please please help or let me know how I can seek help.

    Now that you've copied the Preferences file from the other account to this one, does the behavior change, or do you get the same Scratch Disk error? You can try deleting (or renaming) the Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 Prefs file to force the Editor to recreate it. Also, the keyboard shortcut to reset preferences is Ctrl+Alt+Shift (not Ctrl+Shift+Del). On top of that, if you hold down just Ctrl+Alt, you can select your Scratch disk at launch.
    Here is more information about where the Preferences files are stored: Preference file locations | Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements
    This video also helps (it talks about Photoshop, but all the information applies to Photoshop Elements as well except for the change in file and folder names: How to Reset Photoshop CS6’s Preferences File | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV
    A Scratch Disk is temporary hard drive space that the Editor uses to hold information about the image(s) you are editing. This temp file gets created either in a temp folder or the root of the hard drive if a secondary hard drive is selected. Another possible source of the problem is that this user account has issues with access to the location where it is trying to create the Scratch Disk. File and Folder permissions, which control this access, is different for each user account. When you encounter a problem that occurs in one account but not another, you should take a look at this document: Troubleshoot unexpected behavior | User account-specific | Adobe software | Windows 7, Vista

  • Help! can't open PSE 5.0.2 at all and I have to reboot

    I have been using pse 5.0.2 since July 2007 on xp.  When I double click the icon PSE starts to initialize and hangs when it gets to "Reading Preferences".  I can use other applications, but once I click on them the screen gets messed up and no matter what I have to reboot.  I tried putting in the installation Cd and get the following errors in this order
    1. Invalid unicode file .\AutoPlay\main.ini
    2. Error MAIN_FILE_VERSION
    3. Error PRODUCT_REGISTRY_PARENT
    4. Error PRODUCT_REGISTRY_KEY
    I also tried installing the CD on another machine which does not have photoshop elements and I get the same 4 errors.
    I did go through the PSE forum, saw some errors with the organizer freezing, but I can't even open elements at all.  I do not have google chrome installed. I have not installed anything new on this computer in a year, and do not have any firewalls, or spyware loaded.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You didn't say if you were trying to load the Organizer or the Editor.

  • Opening PSE 11 to edit from Aperture

    Just upgraded from PSE 8 to PSE 11 on my Mac. Suddenly I can't open PSE 11 from Aperture to edit a photo. Have selected PSE 11 in Aperture as the editor. There seems to be no easy way to get a photo into PSE 11 for editing. Please help. Thanks

      Make sure you selected the correct file in Aperture preferences for extern\al editing app, and not the alias. You need the application in the Support Files Folder.
    From Lion the user library is hidden by default. From Finder hold down the command (alt) key and click Go - then you can choose Library.

  • Can not open CR2 files from a Canon 600D in PSE

    Hi
    Ok i will put my hand up and say i am very new to PSE, I have updated the software and have the latest camera raw plug in, but for some reason i can not open the raw files created by my 600D.
    Can anyone help, or am i going to have to convert them.
    Sorry if this has been asked before, but i couldn't find any posts
    Chris

    The 600D should be supported in ACR 6.4 which is currently in beta so you'll have to wait until it's released, probably within days or weeks, for native support within Elements.
    While you're waiting, you can download the beta version of the DNG Converter 6.4 from Adobe Labs and use that to convert your CR2 files to DNGs which will open in older versions of Camera RAW.
    http://labs.adobe.com/
    Follow the Camera RAW 6.4 RC link and eventually you'll get a link to download the DNG Converter 6.4 RC.
    The Camera RAW 6.4 RC installer will only run if you have Photoshop, not Elements, so you can't use that, yet, but you can use the DNG Converter.
    Because the DNG Converter and Camera RAW 6.4 are in beta status there could be differences in how the RAW photos look compared to when you get the released version of ACR 6.4 but probably not too much difference.

  • I can't open image files, or even drag images into PSE 12 Editor

    So, this is very weird.  I had PSE 10.  About a week ago, it suddenly developed weird problems.  Like, it wouldn't let me use Auto Levels, or let me crop an image, etc. 
    In frustration tonight, I bought PSE 12.  Same exact problem, except worse.  It literally won't let me open a JPG file.  
    I can use the File -> Open menu.  I'm on a PC, so the usual file opening dialog appears.  I select a JPG and click Open.  And... nothing.  The window closes, I'm back in the editor, but nothing's happened.  (Oddly enough, it does appear in the "Open Recently Edited File" menu, but can't open it from there, either.)
    I've tried dragging a JPG from a browser onto the editor's workspace.  Doesn't work.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thx!

    According to the Customer Support page, this forum is the "best way to contact us" and "Our community and staff are at your service 24/7".  Is that not correct?
