Cannot open Editor in PSE 8
Have just changed computers to one with Windows 7. Previously have PSE operating on old computer but when I tried transfering it to the new computer whilst it loaded, when attempting to use, it came up with PSE elements Editor has stopped working, with the problem description being APP Crash. Was subsequently advised by support that PSE 7 was not compatible with Windows 7, and that I had to upgrade to PSE 8.
Have now upgraded to PSE 8 and its coming up with exactly the same problem namely that Editor has stopped working and the description of the problem was an APP.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix?
Adobe customer support is incompetent and gave you the wrong answer. Many, many people have reported that PSE 7 does run well on Windows 7 -- it's just that Adobe doesn't provide customer support for it.
Regarding PSE 8, I assume you installed it from the installation disk or the download from Adobe.com? If so, see this troubleshooting FAQ:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Troubleshooting_Editor_cra shes
Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the PSE Editor might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash.

I am using elements 11 with Windows7. I cannot open editor because configuration error occurs with message "errror 213:11". What happened? What can I do? Thanks a lot for your support.
See if this helps:

Hi,
I have PSE11 running on Windows 8 and have had no problems at all since I bought this machine in November 2012. But suddenly I cannot open any images at all. I have tried removing the PSE preferences file and letting it regenerate but to no avail. I don't get any error messages when I try to open a file, I just get ignored as though I wasn't trying to open anything at all. I can choose a file to open and can see the thumbnails in the file chooser, but when I select an image to open the file chooser closes and I'm left with the empty editor window. Anyone come across this? I have not made any changes to my machine or anything like that.Ah, ok. Looks like I needed to restart my computer before any changes took effect. Tried that and now it's all go. Put this up in case it helps anyone else with the same problem.

Cannot open Editor after installation and sign in to Adobe ID
I installed elements 13 on two computers. Then as directed, I signed up for an Adobe ID.
Elements works fine on one computer, but not on the other. On the one with the problem, I can access the organizer and use the organizer, but when I try to open Editor, I am asked to sign in with Adobe ID to activate the software, which I have done many times but still nothing happens. I signed in to check my Adobe account and I have a valid account, but still cannot open the editor. It just keeps asking me to sign in, which I have done many times and still cannot open the Editor.Have you managed to update to 13.1 by loading the organizer, going to the Help menu and selecting Updates.. ?
The sign in process can be blocked by your system, you can try disabling your firewall to see if that is blocking you.
The following document is for CS but contains information that will affect elements too.
Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later
Recently, an add on has been found to block the Adobe access - please see this thread.
How do I get past the required "sign in" requirement on Elements 12 EDITOR after entering my password?
Good luck

I am unable to open editor from any screen. This is a new install. Thanks. PSE 11.
Hey Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
1:
1. Close Elements.
2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
4:
On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere else.
5. Try launching it directly from the PhotoshopElementsEditor .exe.
6. Please check in task manager if PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe is already running . If so then kill it and then relaunch elements editor. -
Cannot Open Editor with APE 11
I just received Adobe Photoshop Elements (APE) 11 for Christmas. I downloaded with CD yesterday; I downloaded many photos from my camera and everything seemed to work fine. Today, I can access the photos with the "Organizer" and do quick fixes, but I cannot access the full Editor. I am going down to the "EDITOR" buttom on the Task Bar at the bottom of my screen. I click this button and nothing happens. Also pls note that I cannot access the Editor from the shortcut that the installation put on my desktop. What am I doing wrong? ~Troubled CherBear55

Starting today, after the most recent update, Firefox 8 on Win 7, when I open GMail, I can see the list view, but when I try to open an email to read or reply, I get an error saying GMail cannot load the rich text editor, and I see only the snippet, without the actual content of the email.
Here's hoping that AdBlock can make an update that fixes this, because it's a royal pain having to switch back and forth. On my Mac, everything works fine.
But thanks. -
I have PSE 11. I loaded it from CD. I cannot open editor from the Welcome page, from the task bar, or from the drop down menu? Nothing seems to work. I did edit photos for 3 days, but not anymore. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
BillPlease launch Editor exe keeping Ctrl+Shift+Alt keys pressed.
Say OK to the prompt asking you to delete settings file. This will reset your Editor preferences. Now launch Editor and see if this works.
If not then please check task manager/activity monitor for any PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe. Kill it if there. Now launch Editor exe using right click >> Run as Admin.
Does any of this help?
Thanks

Can't open editor in PSE 10. Organizer will open but not editor. Using Windows 7.
Bypass the Unwelcome Screen by creating Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor, and restarting your computer.
The Editor's executable is:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
The Organizer's executable is:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
The Unwelcome Screen leaves a zombie process running which prevents the actual program from launching again.

Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X".
I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but get the same error message.Which version of OS X do you have? It's not clear from your post whether "installed an upgrade" means you just installed PSE 13 as an upgrade or you installed an update to PSE 13, like ACR 9 or 13.1. Please clarify.

Cannot open NEF files in PSE 9
I have just installed a second version of my copy of PSE 9 on a laptop. When I try to open an NEF file I get the message 'Cannot open [file-name] because it is the wrong type of file'.
I can open these files on the version I have installed on my PC so am confused as to why this should be different on the laptop.
I understand I can get around this by converting the files to DNG format but I'd much rather open them directly in pse as I currently do on the version installed on my PC.
Is there any way to get this fixed?
Thanks
NeilHi,
Are both PC and Laptop using the same version of Camera Raw - in the editor go to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw to check the version.
You may have updated your PC but not the Laptop - go to Help -> Updates
Failing that, please let us know which camera model you have.
There is a forum for PSE - best to ask questions there.

Cannot open file in Editor /Elements 3
Have just installed Elements 3 successfully and can use the file browser without a problem. However I cannot open a file in Editor from any source. It comes up with 'cannot complete request due to program error'. Have tried reinstalling, restore point, etc to no avail. Using Windows XP. Has anyone any ideas please?
Thanks for the update

I edited a .nef file in Camera Raw and PSE 11 saved it as a .xmp file. I cannot open it now.
I am not sure if this is an issue but Windows does not recognize the .xmp file and give it an icon with the photo's picture. On a related note, when I edited some .nef files and Windows saved it as .dng file, it too, like the .xmp file, Windows does not recognize the .dng file and give it an icon with the photo's picture.
Do I need to download something to create this icon?PSE didn't save your file as an .xmp file. The .xmp file is not the image--that's still the .nef. The xmp file is what adobe calls a 'sidecar' file, just a record of the settings you used in the raw converter. As long as it's in the same place as the image, when you open the nef in ACR again, it will open where you left off, with the settings you chose.
If you want to save as, you have two choices:
1. Click the Open button in the raw converter window and save in the image format of your choice.
2. Use the Save button in the raw converter to create a separate DNG file, which still must be opened in the raw converter and converted to an image format for use in other programs. -
After downloading PSE 13, receive error message cannot open windows temporary internet files
After downloading Photoshop elements 13, I receive an error message as it tries to open (but instead opens my PSE 9 application) and this message appears: "cannot open C:Users\Spears\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.1E5\AV8ZNMD1\Photoshop Elements_13_LS25_win64.7z"
I have been trying various fixes to download this for 2 days now. Can someone please help me?
Thanks!Did you check if the Firefox file is in that location?
If it isn't there then do a clean (re)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
If the file is there then do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />
