Elements 12 "Edit" has stopped working - need a fix

I have elements 12 and the "Edit" function refuses to work and "Microsoft can't find solution" to "system problem"
I have backed up to an earlier "restore point" but that has not solved the problem.  The "Organize" function still works and I even did the "Upgrade" from version 12.0 to 12.1 hoping that would be a "fresh" version and would fix the problem, but it did not.  I am tempted to "UNINSTALL" and reinstall but cannot find original disk - can I download and use my existing "serial number"??

Problem has been solved.
I completely uninstalled the "corrupted" original program.
I then downloaded the "trial version" and did a FRESH NEW INSTALLATION then used the original Serial Number and now have a fully operational licensed copy of the original program.

  • Elements 12 Optimizer has stopped working

    I use Windows 8.1
    When I try to add music to my slide shows I get this message  " Elements 12 Optimizer has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"
    I have contacted Microsoft who  has investigated thoroughly the issue from their perspective. Their advice  is what t I need now is for Adobe to tell me how to remove the add-in or plug in that's causing this crash."
    I hope someone can assist as at the moment Photoshop 12 (which I have had for 2 months) is not doing what I bought it for.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop 12 twice and have ensured that all the latest updates have been added.
    Can anyone assist?

    The videos were imported from the folder since i already had the files before i bought Elements

    With the new nVidia drivers, the first thing that you will want to do will be to go to the nVidia console and disable 3D Sterevision. No Adobe program can use it. It is designed for gamers with the 3D Stereovision goggles.
    If that does not fix things, go back to the console and disable PhysX. It too is a gamer module.
    Good luck,

  • Elements 10 Organizer  Has Stopped Working.

    I recently purchase Adobe Elements & Premier 10 programs and both have been working well for about 2 weeks.  Now, when I opene Organizer, the program loads and appears but immediately it stops working with the message: "Elements 10 organizer has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it but no change.  The Editor in Elements 10 starts and works fine.  I am running Windows Vista.  Nearly each day I get a Windows update notice and install it.  I also frequently defrag my hard drive.  I am having no other issues with my computer.
    I have tried a few of the suggestions from others on this forum but nothing helps.  I have also tried the Restore feature on Windows but it never Restores for me.
    Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Larry

    See if you can get to the preferences from Editor by clicking:
    Edit à Preferences à Organize & Share
    Then select Media Analysis and turn everything off by un-checking all the boxes.
     Also try making a direct shortcut for the Organizer and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop bypassing the welcome screen.
    On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New à Shortcut
    Then click the browse button and navigate to:
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    Then click Next; then click Finish
      N.B. on 64 bit systems navigate to Program Files (x86)

  • Elements 12 organizer has stopped working on importing of files

    I am running a brand new PC w8.1 fresh install, second install of elements and photoshop 12.  when I am attempting to import my files in the organizer I am getting a consistant crash "Elements 12 organizer has stopped working".  Need assistance to make this go away.
    Background:
    The crash happens while importing videos or photos (have not even gotten to the part to work with files yet)
    I have tried to take smaller imports (less then a couple hundred files) but that doesn't seem to matter.
    It is not crashing on a consistent file.  Sometimes when I try again, it completes the import.
    Brand new Dell PC 7i, 24 gig ram, amd advance graphics card (PC not the issue)
    Windows 8.1 pretty much out of the box.
    Tried to "rename" the psa file to psaold, (still crashing).
    Re installed software, no change
    Downloaded the latest updates for everything.
    Webroot security
    Thanks for any help you can give me, I hate to have to return the product but considering how unstable it is when everything is fresh, I cant imagine living with this.

  • Elements 9 Organizer has stopped working.

    Whenever I run Photoshop Elements 9, after a few seconds a window pops up that says "Elements 9 Organizer has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem." And then another window pops up that says, "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Then, I am forced to close the program. How can this be fixed? Thanks.

    delete your preference files from C:\Documents and Settings\"user name"\Application Data\Adobe\Elements Organizer\9.0\Organizer. Delete psa.prf and status.dat.
    Your preference settings will be set back to default. Also, try turning off Auto Analyzer from Edit->Preferences->Media Analysis.
    Hope it works !

  • Elements 12 organizer has stopped working and premiere elements 12 get msvcr80.dll missing errors

    elements 12 organizer has stopped working and premiere elements 12 gets msvcr80.dll missing errors

    First deactivate the product(s) and then uninstall it from the machine using the procedure specifically for your OS.  If in Windows and I suspect it is then uninstall from the Control Panel.
    To deactivate the product you need to go Editor and then:
    Help >> Deactivate
    Please also make sure that you have your original CDs and /or DVDs handy including the necessary serial number as you will need them to install the product(s) again.
    After uninstalling the products, you need to restart the machine before you start to install again.
    You have created the backups of your sentimental photos, right?  You need to just in case the machine causes more problems down the line.

  • Adobe digital editions has stopped working??

    I have been using ADE to read library ebooks, and the 2.0 version has never worked for me- I have always got the error message "Adobe digital editions has stopped working" as soon as I try to open it. I have been using the older version 1.7.2, but now it will no longer let me use this version and forces me to download an upgrade. I have tried 2.0 and 3.0 and both get the same error message. I have tried reinstalling and allowing through my firewall but I still keep getting the message. Does anyone know how I can fix this please??

    When you open the ADE 2x/3x, It tries to load the books' details from the "My Digital Editions" folder (in "My documents") for the library view. If any of the book is corrupt, It fails to open correctly.
    I am guessing this is the issue.
    Can you try the following:
    Backup the "My Digital Editions" folder and then remove this folder.
    Now open the ADE. Hopefully, It will work.
    If it does, you can open the books from the Backed up folder.
    I hope it helps.

  • My Photoshop 9 Stopped working I get the message "Elements 9 Organizer has stopped working"

    My photoshop 9 program stopped working after using Adobe Premiere 9 to generate a slide show using Adobe Photoshop 9 organizer to place photos. The program crashed as I was attempting to burn a DVD. After this happened, I no longer could access the organizer in Photoshop 9. I get the message "Elements 9 organizer has stopped working" " A problem caused the program to stop working correctly, windows will close the program and notify you of a solution is found"
    I tried unistalling Photoshop 9 and the problem remains.

    Thanks for your suggestion.  I checked the Epson web site and also their technical help, they gave me their latest driver (which didn't work) but also said there were some issues with Apple's Mavericks (OS X 10.9.4) and said I should get back to Apple.  Not sure were this leaves me with Adobe Elements though - perhaps I should reinstall?  Thanks again for your suggestion.
