Elements 10 does not recognize multiple printers of same model?

In our business, we print on multiple printers, some of which are the same model.
For example, the Epson Stylus C88 is a common printer for us and we've been using PSE for years, since Version 3. For the purpose of our sample integrity (we print specialized inks to analyze their density), we wish to continue using Epson C88's for as long as we can still purchase them.
We've been making infrequent version upgrades to PSE, but are now finally caught up.
Unfortunately, when trying to print with PSE10 having more than one C88 installed, two problems occur:
1) The printer selection menu has all the printers listed, but as soon as we access the Advanced Settings, the printer choice defaults towards the most recently installed C88 (ie. we wanted to use Copy 5 and it would not allow us to choose anything but Copy 9, the latest one).
2) We're allowed to print exactly once. When I try to print a second time, a dialog box pops up saying:
"Before you can perform printer-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer."
The box pops when I hit the print command, meaning I can't do ANY printing, despite having a large number of printers installed, unless I close and reload the program.
I attempted a quick fix of this by uninstalling all my Epson C88's, and then reinstalling the particular C88 I wished to use. I was allowed to print, and continue printing, as long as that C88 was the only one that was installed. Unfortunately, when I moved to install another, the problem surfaced again. This time, I deleted my "original" C88 while keeping the second copy installed, and the problem persists. I could maintain one and only one Epson C88 installed at any time, but I'd rather not have to.
Doing a little research, I've noticed that this is not the only model of printer with this problem. I've attempted to load up an HP Officejet Pro 8000, and the exact same problem occurred, leading me to believe that it's an issue in PSE, not the printer.
The printer drivers are all current, and I have the latest version of PSE10 installed. This hasn't happened on any version previous to my knowledge (earliest known being PSE7).
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give in this issue.

Yeah, that does seem to allow it to print. This means I should rename all the printers, which, honestly, is not that big of a deal. Not so much as uninstalling and reinstalling.
Thanks!

Have you updated iTunes with the absolute latest software? If you have not in a long time, your iPad won't be recognized.

Photoshop Elements 10 does not recognize my printers after upgrading, I need it to recognize all my

I have been a long time user of Elements. I recently upgraded to 10 and it no longer recognizes my printers. It says that I need to install printers. When I look in Windows my printers are still installed and work with other programs. The forum wants my to set a photo printer as a default, but i use a laser printer as a default for word processing. This seems to be a serious problem for more than just me.

You're not talking to Adobe here. The responders are users, like you, trying to help. Did you rename one of the HP printers, as suggested?
Also, have a look at this thread:

Premiere Elements does not recognize my blu ray burner LG WH10LS30

I am not able to burn to my LG Bluray Burner (model WH10LS30).
I am able to burn to another standard DVD drive, but I am trying to burn a HD Bluray now.
My drive does have the latest firmware as of 12/2013 and works fine in my Win7 64bit environment
When I try to burn the DVD I get a "No Burners Detected" see attached image

Thanks for the follow up.
1. Did you overcome the Shared Technologies error on reinstall? That is a troublesome issue that is independant of Premiere Elements version and computer operating systems. There are many suggested remedies. The one that has been working for me lately is renaming the OOBE Folder to OLDOOBE before reinstall.
Local Disk C
Program Files (x86)
Common Files
Adobe
and in the Adobe Folder is the OOBE Folder that you rename if this Shared Technologies error is blocking an install or reinstall.
As for
The setup has detected that ElementsAutoAnalyzer.exe dynamiclinkmanager (dynamiclinkmanager.exe)
Opening to Task Manager/Processes, finding those .exe files, and doing an End Process typically takes care of those problems.
Since you have reinstalled the program, you must have succeeded in the above. Great job.
Have you done an inspection, seeking pile ups of preview files, conformed audio, and conformed video files? Is the computer defragmented? These days the defragmentation is done automatically, but worth checking.
You indicated that the video card driver is up to date. Was the latest update done after Premiere Elements 11 was working well? If so, you could look at roll back of the video card driver version. If it does not improve the situation, you could always revert to the one that you know to be current.
A remote possibility that an antivirus update might be involved in the recent events. Have you looked at your present situation with and without the antivirus enabled?

Premiere elements does not recognize Blu-Ray disc, says media not present. Under 12 I was able to record 3 blu-ray dvds using the same burner and discs I'm trying with 13. What is the problem?

I installed PE13 and cannot burn blu-ray DVDs. I was able to burn 3 blu-ray DVDs using PE12. When I select DVD from the menu it recogniazes that it is not a stadard DVD as I get an 'incorrect media' error message. It will burn standard DVDs of the same video using standard DVD mefia.
What is going on here?
When I loaded PE 12 back on the computer I cannot load a file created with PE13. Looks like a format change? Can I convert file back to PE12?

Just did a Mac update yesterday for Yosemite and I can not open a picture in elements with out it crashing. Spent over 4 hours with Mac and it came down to an Adobe Issue with the New Photo which is replacing the I photo. Elements does not recognize it,

Does anyone know a direct number for adobe that will not cost you to just ask about their program which will not work with a new mac update!

You can do that in iPhoto, too. Just go to the iphoto prefs>advanced, and set PSE as your external editor. Note that the actual editor is not the file at the top level of Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements < version number >, but rather hidden away inside the Support Files folder:
Then you just right the click the photo in iphoto and choose edit with external editor.
If you have the new Photos app, you can't drag and drop, either.

Brand new macbook pro - iTunes does not recognize multiple speakers, my older macs work correctly

New macbook pro with iTunes 10.5.2. OS 10.7.2 Setting up iTunes.
Two speakers on Airport devices.
Switch at bottom right shows all of the speakers above the line, and "multiple speakers" below the line. The two speakers on the airport devices are #3 and #4 on the list above the line. (i.e. ITunes is aware that these airport speakers exist).
I can click on single airport speakers above the line, and ITunes connects.
When I click on "multiple speakers", I get "computer" and the first listing which is a printer hooked up on an airport express link. Also get the separate volume controls etc. The third and fourth entries on the list (i.e. the airport speakers) are not displayed on the multiple speakers list.
So I can connect to one speaker at a time, e.g. the computer, or any other speaker, but I cannot connect to multiple speakers.
I have two other macs and have never had this problem with hooking up to the multiple speakers.
Thanks for any help.

Same here - the problem is - it was working for a few days after I've upgraded iTunes to version 10, and then yesterday - I've rent the movie from Apple Store and once downloaded with iTunes - I wanted to transfer it to my ATV - however - my link to ATV suddently disappeared. What a piece of Crap. I can't describe my frustration - apple products aren't cheap and they always come with some kind of problem - what the **** is going on - it's not just the design people are looking for but also functional products.
Yesterday I've tried to turn of ATV, remove link from iTunes, start ATV make new connection to iTunes, start up iTunes - ATV shows up, code put in and at this stage I thought it finally works - but hey - forget it - I'm trying to put the purchased rental onto ATV and I get an alert saying that my firewall (which I have none) is stopping me from syncing. I then go to the support page which explains how to deal with it - but on some very old version of the system - my system (Snow Leopard) doesn't have those options any more. So as far I I'm concerned I'm screwed unless they fix the problem with their software.
If you guys know of any possible solution to this problem (and I did read many forum topics already - none of which works) - then please let me know.

Captivate 7 HTML 5 publish does not play multiple videos on same slide on Android devices

Hello,
I have a captivate module which has 2 videos on same slide. There are 2 buttons, clicking on which the videos appears. However when i test this on iPad or any Android device, it plays on 1 video. I used Event video. Can someone please help me on this?
Regards
Manoj

I don't think you are missing anything. I am using the "Light_PAssage" animantion, but switching to the one you used has no impact.
For me, if there is a text animation on slide one, it will play in File->Preview->Play Slide. It will not play in FIle->Preview->Project, From this slide, or Next 5 slides.
The issue occurs in all my Captivate 5 projects, including projects that previously generated properly working outputs as recently as 2/23/2011.
Is it possible it's related to Flash player? I am using Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX 10.2.152.26.
I will send an example cptx to your email address. The example includes a blank slide one, and the text on slide 2 plays as expected in the previews and in the generated output. If I remove the blank slide 1, the text animation on the new slide 1 no longer plays.
Thanks.

Photoshop CS4 does not recognize my printers

I've been looking throught the posts on this subject back to
April or May and don't see any real answers.
My Os is Windows 7 (64bit). All the printers are
networked. The printer i want to print to is an Epson
7800. PSD and modified photo all come up with the error
message stating that I need to install printer. Unmodified
photos don't have this problem. Also my laptop running
Windows 7 (32 bit) works fine. So a gather from what is am
seeing in my system and on the web, PS has a problem
dealing with networked printers while running Win7 (64Bit).
Any one have any new thoughts on the problem?
Thanks, Les

Hi,
Exit Photoshop.
Go into windows devices and printers and change the default printer to Microsoft XPS Document Writer.
Open Photoshop and when you get ready to print something and the print window options comes up change the printer in there to the network printer you want the job to print on.
See if that works.

PS CS4 does not recognize any printers

I have a client that gets the error ""Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer" when he tries to print from PS CS4 He has a networked printer and has Adobe PDF as his local default printer (Other CS4 applications print fine with this setup only PS gives trouble)
He is running Vista Ultimate - 64 Bit and is current on his updates for Vista and PS and has plenty of RAM and scratch.
Any suggestions?

So do they install the printer ? Even if on a network one needs to have the drivers installed locally. Best to do this with Administrator privs.

Organizer problems with Elements 12---running a PC windows 7 ---cannot set up new places subcategory and elements does not recognize that I am on the internet

Has anyone had similar problems to the above and what is the fix??
Thanks

The fix was to completely remove all Apple Software following guides in previous posts.
Then download and re-install latest iTunes 64-bit, making sure to Run As Administrator.
This fixed it. Now the next thing seems to be that as I move from one device to another to close and restart iTunes between each one. Treat it gently. It seems to break easily and a lot.

Installing Multiple Printers of Same Model on One Computer

I love the HP DeskJet Ink Advantage K109a. I own four of these printers and would like to hook up two printers to one computer. Could someone please tell me how to go about doing that? Do I just install them individually or do I have to configure the USB ports separately? Thank you for your help.

Yes. It's possible to have more than one backup of your iPhone on your computer. The backup is stored in this folder: Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup in your users profile. You have to disconnect your iPhone, navigate to the folder, move that folder to another part of your computer, and then plug your iPhone back in. This should create another backup in that folder. Then if you add the folder that you moved back in. You'll have two different backups. This is a link to the article where I got this info from. It also has the other places backups are kept on your computer.

Elements 9 does not recognize iPhoto pics when trying to import?

I need help in importing pics into elements 9 from I photo? Elements does not recognize the photos to import them.

You may need the 9.0.2 update if using iPhoto 11. However you need to make a decision. Use Organizer or use iPhoto but not both otherwise you will end up with lots of duplicate files on your hard drive. You can alternatively set up PSE9 as your external editor in the iPhoto preferences. Then you can use Edit In directly from the iPhoto app. If you really want to switch to Organizer see these notes for further help:

to see what version of Camera Raw is installed, you can go to:
Help >> About Plug in >> Camera Raw
See this picture:
You can also try to update your version if it isn't version 8.5
There is also a possibility to use DNG converter to load any raw files from any cameras but see if this answers your question.
