Cannot launch Photoshop, no error message

I have been using Photoshop Elements 7 for many years, but all of a sudden today it will no longer work.  The first time it launched as normal, and I clicked the "edit" option to open the editor.  But the editor never opened, and now no matter how many times I use the shortcut or even the exe itself, it will not open.  I checked under "processes" on the task manager and not even the process is appearing.  It's as if I'm tapping a rock.  I got no error messages at all.  Even trying to force it open through task manager fails.
I'm running Windows 7 64 bit and I haven't done any changes to my system since last I used the program.  I have tried restarting, fully shutting down and starting, and I've run my virus and malware scans with no change.  I would uninstall and reinstall, but I lost the disk a long time ago and can't afford a new version.
If anyone might know anything, please help.

Find your Elements 7 serial number, looking in your Products list at Adobe.com under Manage and then install from the download on this page:

    Have you updated your iTunes on your computer? WIth a device running iOS7, you need iTunes 11.
    When you removed iTUnes, did you see something named 'apple mobile device support' or something like it? (The exact name varies from operating system to operating system). If you see that, uninstall it too. That's the drivers for your iPhone and they should self-install when you plug your device in.
    If all that is fine, have you checked your cable and USB port? a malfunctioning cable can keep you from syncing.

  • Cannot install itunes, getting error message 8.0.50727.6195

    cannot install itunes, getting error message 8.0.50727.6195.  Any ideas? 

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

    Hi VijayAhuja,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are able to print but when you attempt a scan on your HP Deskjet 3510 you get an error message saying the 3510 series is not found.
    I would first like you to run the HP Print and Scan Doctor- It was designed by HP to provide users with the troubleshooting and problem solving features needed to resolve many common problems experienced with HP print and scan products connected to Windows-based computers.
    What did the PSDR find, are you now able to scan with your DJ 3510? If you are still not able to scan please leave me with the following information:
    1. How do you have the printer connected, USB or Wireless?
    2. What is you current Operating system?
    3. Do you have any anti virus programs running, Norton or McAfee, please disable and retry the scan?
    I will watch for your reply.
    Thanks,
    HevnLgh

  • Adobe Photoshop CS2 Error messages after update to mac os 10.4.6

    After updated to mac os 10.4.6 everytime I use Photoshop CS2 I receive an error message "Could not complete your request because of a program error"
    I did all the workarounds that were described in document 331627 from Adobe's website and nothing worked.
    I also subscribe to maxosx.com support and someone suggested removing the legal.localized/Tien...file from the photoshop cs2/legal directory, but everytime I tried to select the directory "legal" from within the finder view, it disappeared and closed the finder window.
    HELP!

    Did you upgrade from a previous version of OS X like 10.3.x or 10.2.x or from a prior version of 10.4.x? If the former, there are probably some files in your previous system folder that need to be restored.
    Otherwise, double click Photoshop when it's closed, and then IMMEDIATELY hold Command + Option + Shift. You'll get a box for resetting the settings. Select Yes and maybe that will help.

  • Cannot download pictures get error message

    when trying to download pictures I get an error message. The Ipod "bill's ipod" cannot be updated. The disk could not be read from or written to. Am i doing something wrong or is there somethig wrong with my ipod?

    It sounds like your iPhoto Advanced preferences are set to not copy photos during import, i.e. a Referenced library:
    Check your Advanced preferences to see if that's the case. If it is the best solution would be to select the checkbox to copy the photos and reimport the photos from the flash drive.  Then check the new import. It it was OK you can delete the previous event with the "missing" photos.

  • Cannot open Photoshop: get error: To open "Adobe Photoshop CS5.app," you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now?  However installing Java SE 6 runtime does not fix nor does installing Oracle Java SE 7. Adobe says Apple is problem.

    Searching the internet for solutions to this and some discussion with Adobe.
    Adobe say Photoshop does not use java so it should not be asking for a java runtime.
    The question is how can I stop Photoshop asking to install java since Photoshop does not need or use Java to run?
    Found various links that might be helpful:

    Adobe's Installing Java SE 6

    However as I have Oracle Java SE 7 installed and SE 6  is deprecated and no longer supported for security reasons.
    Apple is actually responsible for Java 6's security. They take Oracle's code and do whatever is needed to make it compatible with Apple's OS. Java 6 is still getting security updates from Apple. Versions 6 and 7 can also exist on the same drive. They won't interfere with each other.
    Also I am assured in no uncertain terms by Chris Cox over at Adobe that Photoshop CS 5 does not use java at all and that the java error message  and so called dependency is just an error on the part of Apple.
    I did find a topic where Chris stated that for CS6, which I know is true. I've installed CS6 (and CC) on a newly formatted drive in Mountain Lion, and neither made any mention of requiring Java. Could have sworn CS5.5 and earlier did you Java for a few functions. Though I likely only assumed that since that version and earlier always causes a prompt to install Java if it isn't already on the drive.
    So is there any way to run Photoshop with SE 7 only installed or even better with no java installed?
    It doesn't really matter much if Java is installed. Java 6 should put an app in the Utilities folder by the name of Java Preferences. Open that, and you can completely disable it by undoing the check boxes.
    Perhaps there is a way to make OS X stop thinking it needs java SE 6 to run Photoshop CS 5.
    Apple would have to make a change to the OS itself. It's a not a user accessible setting.
