Cannot reinstall my photoshop elements 9 from disk

I recently had to uninstall and reinstall photoshop elements 9 on my computer. Now the CD won't reinstall. There is nothing visually wrong with the CD, but it freezes and refuses to continue the installation process once it reaches "copying files". It is not my Drive either since I have used it to install other programs during this problem.
I was in hopes of downloading this version online and then re-entering my product key but only elements 10 is now available. I have tried the new version and don't see the reasoning to spend money on the upgrade since its very similar to version 9.
Why will my store bought elements not install???????

I am using Windows Vista on my Sony Vaio, this OS has not been changed and was previously used with this program. All updates on OS have been done and are current to the best of my knowledge. I was wondering however, if it was because I never deactivated the product key when I uninstalled the PSE 9 previously and may be preventing reinstallation, that is all I can come up with after racking the brain.
I'm am not tech savvy like an IT, but there are many things that I have reviewed in regards to the DVD install process failing. Any suggestions??????

Cannot reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 7

Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 has been working fine up until I had to uninstall it last week. I am using Windows XP. I inserted the CD for reinstall. It works fine at validating, copying files and then asks for the CD to be re-inserted. I re-insert the CD and it stops right there. Will not complete the download.

Your company told him it was for 6.

I need help installing photoshop elements from disk.

I can't see a button on the chat page, to get help. Java script is enabled on my Mac. what can I do?

What exactly is the problem?
You could download the 30 day free trial using the link below - It‘s the full product. If you get it successfully installed simply enter the serial number from the DVD box into the trial and it becomes yours to keep. No further installation is required from disk.
Uninstall first, then download.

Problem Reinstalling Adobe Photoshop Elements

I cannot reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements. I had to reinstall my OS (7) last night. The "setup" keeps saying that I need Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher. I have 9.0. Can you help me? Thanks.

OK. I didn't have any problems when I reinstalled it last year. But it's probably the version of Explorer that is loaded now. Perhaps the Dell representative I'm working with can help me out with this when he calls me on Sunday. Otherwise, perhaps I can use Paint, which came installed on my OS. I'm a typesetter, not a graphic designer. So I really only need an image-editing program for cropping figures that come in from the authors. I'll check it out. I'm not in a position to spend more money than I absolutely have to at this time.
Thank you for your time and sharing your thoughts with me!
Happy Holidays, Jeff!

Wanting to reinstall adobe photoshop elements 8 on our mac but disk isn't opening when I load it into cd drive

Hi I am wanting to install Adobe photoshop elements 8 disk on our imac. I have just uninstalled it from our imac as we were getting messages about it missing components. When I install the disk into the cd drive on our mac it doesn't fire up or appear on the desktop but ejects itself from the drive after approx 1 minute. Any ideas how we can reinstall it?

I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.8
The file for Photoshop is on my desktop. The attachment is a screenshot of
what it looks like when I open the Adobe folder on my desktop.
Thanks,

I am trying to reinstall an old version of photoshop elements from a backup drive.

My computer died and I am trying to install an older version of photoshop elements from a backup drive on a new computer. I get the following error message " Could not complete your request because of missing or invalid personalization information. Help?

Just after double clicking or single clicking on the pse 2 shortcut hold down the Alt+Ctrl keys and keep holding the keys until you get a
Scratch Disk Preferences dialog and point the scratch disk to your portable hard drive and maybe that will work.

I need to reinstall photoshop 2004 from disk to my new windows 8 or 8.1

My laptop crashed. I need to reinstall photoshop 2004 from disk to my new windows 8 or 8.1 (can't remember which it is), but my laptop freezes every time I insert the disk. Can anyone help?

If you will tell me what 2004 means. Photoshop CS or version 8 came out around that time and since activation has been terminated for that version, you are entitled to the CS2 replacement:

Did you not look at the link in the thread in my last post, Lorna?
When you buy software it's your responsibility to keep the media against
future reinstallations, whether you purchase via download or on disc. If
you registered your software, for PSE 9 you may still find a download
link in your adobe store account, if you purchased PSE that way, also.

I had my hard drive cleaned and cannot install cs6 master collection from disk. I am getting error message failed to initialize. please download adobe advisor support. I am using a pc and have windows 8. Please help.

start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.
if cc (win): https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
if, your error is:
"Installer failed to initialize. File not found." or "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to missing files."
first, rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.
to find OOBE:
64 bit win OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
32 bit win OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
mac os: HD>library>application support>adobe>caps
mac os: USER>library>application support>adobe>OOB
if that fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
if you're using a dvd to install:
copy the disc contents to a desktop directory and install from that directory.
if you're using a mac:
1. Try to Create a new user account in Mac with Administrator Priviledges.
2. Login to the New user, Navigate to Mac HD> Application> Utilities> Adobe Installer folder, Locate products like Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and un-install them
3. Navigate to User Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
4. Navigate to Mac HD> Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
5. Start the installation again.
if everything applicable above fails, check your installation logs:

How to completely delete Photoshop Elements from my computer??

Hi
I am trying to completely remove Photoshop Elements from my computer.   So far, I have failed in my attempts to do this.   The reason I'm doing this is b/c for some reason that I can't fathom, the folders in My Pictures -- the folders named by shot date -- contain random duplicates.When this happens, the file names folow the convention of DSC_0222 and DSC_0222-1. Exactly the same file size and metadata. In some folders, every picture is duplicated. In other folders, only selected pitcures within the folder are duplicated.   I can't figure out how they got there -- e.g. it doesn't seem to bear any connection to the photos I've edited, which was one theory I had for a while.   Is Elements responsible? Or is this some sort of bug in the download process from the camera (I have a Nikon D40). Anyway, I've given up on trying to sovle this problem and decided I would go back to the beginning and reload everything from my camera.   So, my real question here is about how to completely uninstall Elements.
Here's what I did:    I uninstalled Photoshop Elements through the Add/remove programs utility. I got no errors during the uninstall process.   Then I completely deleted the My Pictures directory (don't worry -- I have it backed up in multiple places!!).   So, at this point there are *no* pictures on my computer at all.    I reinstall Elements, open it up and -- you guessed it!!! -- the catalog is still there with all the thumbnails of the pictures that i deleted from my hard disk.   Of course, each thumbnail is flagged as "Missing File".
So, how do I uninstall/reinstall Elements and get it to forget all memory of the previous catalog?   Why is it "remembering" it in this way when the pictures aren't even on the computer anymore? Isn't this a bug???
I've been working on this issue for much longer than I care to remember-- if anyone can tell me how to get myself truly back to ground-zero so I can start over I would be deeply grateful.   After upgrading to Elements 9 (from 7) to try to solve this problem I am close to just abandoning Elements entirely.....
WHile we're at it, if anyone has any idea where the duplicates pictures are coming from and how I prevent that from happening, I'm' all ears!!!!
Thanks!

Hi
Thanks so much for the response.   So, Help/System Info says that the catalog is here:
Catalog Location: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\My Catalog\
but no such file appaers to exist. In fact, I can only get as far as All Users.   Then there is no directory under that called "Application Data".
i'm still seeing the thumbnails when I got into Elements tho'....   :-(

How do I Reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 on Windows 8

How do I Reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11

You could try downloading from here
https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-10-11-downloads.html
Download and save both files to the same folder then double click on the file2 (a .exe file) to start the unpack of the other file. May take a little while to get going.
Or you could copy the contents of the DVD to a memory stick on the PC with the DVD drive and then use that.

Lost serial number and need to reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11

After wiping my computer clean, I had to reinstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 but realized I no longer have the box with the serial number. I purchased the softward from a camera company called B&H Photo but they don't do anything but ship. I have the external box with barcode but not the internal box with serial number. What can I do to reinstall?

I finally found the correct download page through exploration. I'm sorry I didn't keep track of my path. Anyway, I've got it working!
Ned, the page you just gave me is where I started. Clicking on "Adobe Elements 12" opens a table describing the product with links because of the way it's set up, I thought the table was inviting me to download the Japanese version or the German version, but no English!
Thank you so much.

Please help.

Hi Matthew,
Checking your account I am able to see that you have purchased Acrobat 9 Standard and since the current version is 11, the download link has been removed from the accounts. However, Try the following Forum discussion and that should be able to resolve the query that you have.

Using my current registered Adobe PhotoShop Elements 7 disk to install on new laptop, or install ele

How can I do this?

Don't have the new laptop to try and install it, and since it will come with no CD/DVD drive, I was told by store there might be a way to download it for free from Adobe site.

Just install it. Are you getting some kind of error message? Do you need help with transferring a catalog?
