Catalogue Freezes in Photoshop Elements 12 in Windows 7 on desktop

I  am trying to transfer Photoshop Elements 12 Catalogue to a new computer, (from W7 to W8.1) but when backing up my catalogue on W7 I get as far as 62% and Photoshop stops responding. I have repaired and checked the catalogue in Catalogue manager and tried to backup to severaal different Hard Drives with no success. Can I just copy the catalogue and move it to the new pc?

Hi,
Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
Solution 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.
Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
Solution 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.
Now launch PSE and check if it works.

Thanks,

    As long as your license supports both platforms you should only have to download the Mac version and install/activate using your serial number.  If you need help finding a link to download the file, please indicate the PSE version you need.

  • Download photoshop elements onto windows 8?

    Hi there, I just want to know can you download photoshop elements onto windows 8?

    Yes. Microsoft advises that version 8 of PSE will work with Windows 8. The best option is a new computer with W8 and then do a clean install of Elements. Some difficulties may arise if upgrading the operating system on top of existing software. In those circumstances make sure you have your original disks or your download package, in case a re-install is necessary.
    Microsoft Windows 8 compatibility.

  • Updates for raw files from Nikon D5000 on a photoshop elements 7 /windows 7 system

    I have photoshop elements 7 but it won't open raw files from a nikon D5000 although I've followed the links and updated. It still says it won't open because it's the wrong type of file..I've downloaded a DNG converter but still nothing is happening.

    You download and installed the camera raw 5.6 plugin, by following install directions on the following page?
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 5.6 update
    If you have a windows 7 64 bit system, then the Camera Raw.8bi plugin goes in
    Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 7.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats
    (the path adobe gives is for a 32 bit windows system)
    Also, use the Camera Raw.8bi outside the folder named Win64

  • How do I uninstall photoshop elements 6 (windows) when there is not option in add-remove programs

    How do I uninstall photoshop elements 6 (windows) when there is not option in add-remove programs.  I have looked on my hard drive extensively for a library or utility folder that would have an uninstall program, nothing.  I want to install Elements 9, but have found out that Elements 9 does not remove Elements 6, so I want to remove elements 6 first.

    Strange that PSE6 does not show up via the control pane.
    I wouldn’t worry about uninstalling it. The two versions sit happily side by side and PSE6 takes up hardly any file space compared with PSE9.

  • Import catalogue from adobe photoshop elements

    How can I import a photo catalogue from adobe photoshop elements (9.0) into Aperture?
    Thanks for every hint,
    Penibel

    Yes, use File>Write tags and properties to file and Elements should pick up the metadata keywords this creates. However, if you have raw files or tiffs from an epson scanner, the metadata creation can be unreliable.

  • I purchased Photoshop Elements for windows and need it on mac

    I purchased Photoshop Elements for Windows and need it for Mac.  Can I reverse this or is there a way to get the right product?

    I don't know if things have changed (I get the feeling they have as of late), but normally an Elements license can be applied to either platform, so you should be able to download the trial  version for the Mac and use the serial number to activate it.  If you have any problem you should be able to resolve it with customer spport thru chat.

  • Cannot download registered Photoshop Elements 13 (Windows English from store)

    I cannot download the product  Photoshop Elements 13 (Windows English) and Adobe Elements 13 (Windows English) bought yesterday and registered to my account because the only options provided are for upgrades from trial versions. It is of course impossible to speak by phone to my regional store in Ireland as they do not provide telephone support for my products so I am having a very circular and unsatisfactory  customer service experience. How can I resolve this fundamental isssue?
