Can't validate and get key features in PSE12

My problem:
My Photoshop Elements 12 purchased from Amazon seems to be lacking features such as access to layers, etc.. Here's the series of events that I initiated. One of these might have thrown off things.
a) Downloaded a free 30 day trial version of PCE12.
2) Saw a good deal at Amazon and decided to purchase.
3) Don't have a DVD player so instead of using the discs I went online and after uninstalling the 30 day trial version I downloaded and installed (what could have been the same 30 day version) At some point I was prompted and entered my new serial number.
So I have a running copy of PSE12 but w/o key features. Is that typical of the trial version? Will these features such as 'layers' capability appear only after I have validated? I can't seem to get the validation going. Appreciate any help out there. Forget the phone help; it's at least a three hour wait. And are they charging me too?

Thanks for your answer to my desperate plea... I actually discovered this 'Expert' feature by following a Youtube how-to video  later that evening. So, still appreciate that you care enough to reply. I'm just learning this software application and will continue watching the many videos from the Youtube source. Do you by any chance know what 'validation' provides as an advantage?Thanks again.Dave

You need to be in Expert mode to get all the features working.

Good call from your part.

  • BBZ10 and Q10 key Features.

    Here are some key features of Blackberry Z10 and Q10:
    1) The Z10 which has a 4.2-inch screen(1,280 x 768 display), will be sold at an unsubsidized price of $599, but can be obtained through some carriers for $149 with a three-year contract. Pricing for the Q10, the keyboard-equipped sibling, was not made available.
    2) At 130 millimeters (5.1 inches) in length and weighing 137 grams (4.8 ounces), Z10 is slightly longer and heavier than the iPhone 5. On the other hand, Blackberry Q10 has a squarish screen measuring 3.1 inches (7.8 centimeters) diagonally.
    3) The smartphones are being offered with a 1.5GHz Qualcomm MSM8960 dual-core CPU with 2GB of RAM.
    4) The BlackBerry smartphones have 16 gigabytes of storage, plus a memory-card slot for expansion. However, the phones don't support cards larger than 32GB.
    5) On the back is a 8-megapixel camera which is capable of taking videos of 1080p. The camera is located on the top-left corner of the back and paired with a LED flash. The front has a 2-megapixel camera which is capable of recording videos of 720p.
    6) It has Multilanguage support, and users can flick words with one thumb. Also improved are the picture editor, and a multitude of other features that positions the device both as a consumer device and an enterprise device simultaneously.
    7) The glass is designed exclusively for Z10, it is supposedly thinner but stronger than plastic.
    8) The device aggregates information intuitively; it recognises and pulls up all the connections into the contacts, like the last email, last meeting, last Twitter post.
    9) The battery life is estimated at 10 hours talking time and 13 days on standby. Another feature is a mini-HDMI port to allow connections to a television or projector.
    10) Apps like Facebook have been completely integrated with the BlackBerry 10 hub. All emails and notifications from such applications as Twitter and Facebook go to the BlackBerry Hub, a nerve center accessible with a finger swipe even if you have another application open. One can peek into it and open an email, or return to the previous application without opening the email. The company said that more than 70,000 apps are available for users in the BlackBerry World.

  • ICal Server email invitations - how to test and get this feature working

    iCal Server email invitations - how to test and get this feature working
    Thanks Apple for introducing this nice little feature into iCal but then completely neglecting to write any sort of useful manual that can explain what to do when it doesn't work after you set it up for the first time.
    At long, long last we have finally got there after about 6 months of fiddling on and off, so I thought I had better post up the process since many have similar issues and it is hard to ascertain what is going on.
    Using an external email server was just a waste of time and it still wouldn't handle the replies properly even though it was supposed to handle '+addressing'. In the end I set up a special gmail account for the iCal server and finally got it working. I list here the process of configuring and testing the system to check that each little stage is working.
    Set up a Gmail account in Apple Mail to access and test in the usual way for any email account (e.g. [email protected].);
    Set the iCal server email to access the same email using the following settings:
    IMAP
    SMTP
    [email protected]
    smtp.gmail.com
    Port: 993 [x] Use SSL
    Port: 587 [x] Use SSL
    User & Pwd
    Login
    User & Pwd
    To test the settings:
    send out a test email from Apple Mail to a non-server email address that you can access to check it has been received;
    send out a test email from your non-server email account to [email protected] and check that it is received;
    this tells you that the GMail account is setup correctly and working
    Testing iCal:
    I noted that iCal was deleting any emails that arrive in the inBox in Apple Mail as soon as they arrived (this is to be expected);
    test that the invites are being sent from iCal by setting an event in iCal and inviting your non-server address (you may not see any sign of this in Apple Mail but you should catch it in the iCal server log and possibly in the Gmail sent mail box);
    check that the invite is received at your non-server account and Accept it in iCal on another machine - the reply is automatically sent back;
    the replies appear in Apple Mail but are quickly deleted by iCal. But their record for you to see is left in Gmail under 'All Mail';
    Accepted invites appear as a notification button on the top left hand bar on iCal where you click to acknowledge them and then the attendee is shown as a green circled tick instead of a grey circled ?.
    this shows that iCal invitations are working correctly. Whenever an event is updated, all invitees should be updated by email automatically.
    I hope this helps anyone - I could certainly have done with something similar when I started with looking at this.
    Anatole
    The Error and Access logfile in the Server app under iCal server are very useful in determining any errors. I got lots of imip errors when I didn't quite have the settings right. The port is critical and it won't tell you this is the problem if it fails.

    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers

    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

    In the case of the trial mode, the license to MXF OP1a format as well as MPEG2 format are not activated if you install only Media Encoder only.  If this is the case, in order to activate those formats in the trial mode, please also install Premiere Pro, After Effects or Prelude and launch it at least once.  After this, re-launching Media Encoder should make MXF OP1a format available.

    Hi,
    SAVE an image of any non-SAP System or SAP System (SAP BPMce) on SAP ABAP Transaction
    and GET an image and set on output of my ABAP Proxy, so that my ABAP Proxy, send the image to non - SAP system or SAP Java System (SAP BPMce)
    You can transfer the image file as a binary stream between the two systems(could be SAP/Non SAP), so one of the parameters on the MI would be an XString, along with others that will help you classify the data at transaction level.
