Editor will not open after Elements 11 is transferred from Mac Snow Leopard to OS 10.10.2 Yosemite

I have been running Photoshop Elements 11 on a Mac with OS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). I've just got a new Mac with the latest OS X (OS 10.10.2, Yosemite). I transferred all my files to the new computer with Migration Assistant.
The PSE 11 seemed to install fine and the Organiser opens OK, except that I get a message saying 'Some online services are unavailable' and asking if I want to go on without them. However when I try to open the Editor it won't open, instead I get two error messages, first 'Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, please reinstall the application', and then 'A required application library failed to open and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application'.
My questions are – should I just do a reinstall from the original disk? If so, should I do a complete uninstall of Elements 11 first? If I do a reinstall, will I lose any edits, version sets or anything else?
I had been told that I should be able to simply transfer over the PSE 11, with the original product key no. Are there any incompatibilities between PSE 11 and the latest version of Yosemite?
Thanks for any orientation,
Nick

You can never, never, never transfer any installed version of PSE on any platform. You must always install from scratch on a new machine. By trying to do so you have made more work for yourself. You will need to download and run this:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
which will not seem to do anything, but is a necessary step to break the links within the program. Then you can go around and manually remove everything related to PSE that you can find, not only from Applications, but also from your username>library>preferences and the library at the top level of your hard drive>application support>adobe. You must go to these locations manually; spotlight will not help you with this type of search.
Then you can reinstall from your original media or from the download here:
Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10

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 7.0\Locales\\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.

Trying to install PE 13 on a second PC. Organizer opens but the Editor will not open after signing in and accepting the terms and conditions..

trying to install PE 13 on a second PC. Organizer opens but the Editor will not open from the organizer after signing in and accepting the terms and conditions.. Thought PE 13 could run on more than one machine as long as you did not run them at the same time..

Hi,
Please try out the following workarounds and see if it helps:
1. Renaming SLCache and SLStore folders
Please go to following location:
WIN: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
MAC: System Library/Application Support/Adobe
and rename the SLCache folder present there.
Similarly, rename SLStore folder present at following location
WIN: C:\ProgramData\Adobe
MAC: System Library/Application Support/Adobe
After renaming these folders, try to login into the sign-in screen again.
In case it does not help, try out this:
2. Switch the User account to Hidden Administrator. Try signing in from there.
Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on your WIN machine. To enable the same, please refer to link.
Sign Out of current user account and then log in with the new account created.
Try launching Photoshop Elements Editor and login into the sign in screen that pops up.
If editor launches up fine, you can disable the Hidden Administrator account created in first step. Steps to disable the account have been mentioned in the same link.
Thanks,
Anwesha

FCPX will not open after move to a new Mac'

I've just invested in a "new" 2010 MacPro and transferred everything from my 27" iMac, ( same year vintage ), to the MacPro using Carbon Copy Cloner to a new 2tb Hard Drive, installed that drive into the MacPro as it's Start Up drive and everything opens up and works just fine on the "new" machine……..except for FCPX.
While it's not my favourite editing programme by quite a margin I still want to have it usable so I can maybe learn to like it down the road after I am forced to give up FCP Studio 7.
However now it's installed on the MacPro it will not open beyond the FCPX splash screen, it crashes and asks if I want to send a report to Apple.
I've un-installed it from the MacPro and re-downloaded and re-installed a new version to see if that would help, but it didn't. Same thing happens, it crashes before it opens right after the splash screen shows up.
The MacPro' is running the same OSX 10.8.5 as previously in the 27" iMac, no other changes apart from the machine switch and everything else that was cloned over is working fine.
Maybe I've missed something that needs to be deleted from the Mac Pro before FCPX will run in it's new "home", but I can't figure out if that's the case.
Any clues would be welcome…..Thanks!

Hello Tom, thanks for the very swift response!
Yes I know that the recent versions of FCPX will not run on 10.8.5, I was running the earlier version on the iMac ( 10.0.9 ) and that's the version that was Carbon Copied over with the rest of the iMac's drive to the "new" MacPro's start up drive.
When I found it wouldn't work I re-downloaded FCPX from the App store and got the message asking me if I'd like to install an earlier version of the App because the recent one wouldn't run on OSX10.8.5, I click "yes" and an "new" FCPX 10.0.9 was downloaded. However that still will not load beyond the splash screen. So something is upsetting it somewhere.
I do have FCP 7 Studio in a separate folder in Applications labelled "FCP 7 Studio Folder", this was as it was on the iMac and run both FCP's without any conflict or problems.
Odd huh?
PS. FCPX still opens ok on the iMac…..

Photoshop Elements 12 Editor will not open from Organizer

My Photoshop Elements 12 Editor will not open from the Organizer - after I enter my password to login, I just get a small spinning circle on the screen but the editor never loads

Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on an external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but will not launch Organizer. Have tried clearing the catalogs, but nothing works. This was first reported 10 days ago. Had to be out of the country for a week - without photoshop working-- and now I'm back with the same problem. Can someone please help, or do I dump this and try to get some help just reloading the program?

jnrmendonca
It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

Elements 12 (Editor) will not open?

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 installed on my Windows 7 computer.

I have solved the problem myself. I noticed when running Task Manager
that I was using a lot of resources (>60% CPU) when running Organizer. I
disabled Auto Analyzer and Face Recognition and all is fine now. I will add
one or the other a little at a time to see which is actually causing the
problem.

bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace. this patch was recommended by adobe help to allow creating pdf presentations. the help stated bridge cc was shipped without this and to download aom package win 64. I tried that, and either did something wrong or? I deleted bridge cc 64 bit, then went to cc and downloaded bridge cc (not sure if it is 32 or 64) and the program still does not open. any ideas?

There are lots of threads on this. Do a web search.
