Editor will not work Elements 8

I have elements 8, running on windows 7. The organizer works but the editing tool will not open. any suggestions? I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice.

What are the exact steps you're doing to open the Editor?
What exactly happens when you try to open the Editor?
Any error messages?

  • Help! My PSE8 Editor will not work!

    When I try to open it, the editor will not load and I get an error message when I attempt to open a previously saved document I did in photoshop. the message says that the editor will not work. I already tried the ctrl+alt+shift keys at startup.

    I am having the same issue. In my case the software was inside the new computer that i've purchased.It is a vaio with windows 7, 64bit.The organizer runs normally from the first time.When I tried to open the editor, appeared the license agreement on which you have to accept in order to continue. I clicked accept but absolutely nothing happened.Then I had to start task manager and close the program because it didn't respond.
    I also tried to restart my pc and re-do the whole process, but again nothing changes.Any ideas?

  • Runtime error in Elements 9, editor will not work

    I have Windows Vista. The organizer seems to work fine.  But right after a photo opens in editor, a window appears saying:  Microsoft Visual C++,    Runtime Library.  It says Runtime Error!  Program....PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe  This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the applications support team for more information.
    A couple days ago the computer shut down unexpectedly (my computer has been doing that alot in the last month, there was also a power outage due to a storm).  I tried restarting the computer, closing and restarting Elements, updating Elements (it did not need it) I also tried restoring the system to a restore point where Elements was working fine and that did not work. 
    Would really appreciate any help.  Thanks so much.

    Oh, great...an "unknown" faulting module!
    There's not a lot to go on, so I can only offer a couple of general troubleshooting suggestions:
    Re-set the Editor's Preferences by holding down your Ctrl+Alt+Shift keys when launching the Editor and keep them held down until you see the prompt asking if you want to delete the Preferences.  Answer "Yes" and they will be re-built.  You may have to minimize any open windows in order to see that prompt.

  • Editor will not work.

    Ever since I got my notification about REVEL and downloaded the photos from photoshop I have not been able to get the editor in Elements 8 to work.  any suggestions?

    Try the Elements forum.  Very few users are familiar with the emasculated, bargain-priced Elements.

    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.

    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.    For related post for Twain please see this:http://forums.adobe.com/message/2954743#2954743 Thanks,Garry

    I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

    Static_Unit
    I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
    Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
    Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
    In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
    I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
    The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe photoshop elements 13 trial version will not work on windows XP. Does this mean that if I purchase the full version, this also will not work on XP?

    I have Photoshop Elements 12 and want to try version 13 before I buy. However, when I tried to download the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 13, I was informed that it isa not available on Windows XP. Does this mean that if I buy the full version, it will not work on Windows XP?

    Yes, if the system requirements do not include XP then an XP machine will not be able to use it.

    If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

    This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful!  My email:  [email protected]  
    Good luck.
    Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer?  It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
    <C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
    If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called:  PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
    If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website.  <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
    Hope this helps.
