Elements 12 Editor stopped working message

I keep getting a "Photoshop Elements 12 Editor has stopped working" message when I try to go to edit

Why is Adobe continuing to ignore the many forum threads inquiring about this same problem?  IMO, this issue continuing year-after-year represents irresponsible decision-making on the part of their Change Control Board / maintenance management, for such a fundamental operation as photo-stitching.
In particular, when the same two images can be merged successfully using any of a number of separate photo-stitch apps from other vendors, yet crashes Adobe Photoshop, then ipso facto, where do YOU think the blame lies?
In my opinion as a software programmer, an attempt to perform such a basic operation as merging two images, regardless of their size, should NOT cause a frickin' crash.  Programmatically, this speaks to (a) poor memory management, and (b) terrible error-detection/handling/reporting. 
This problem continues with the latest OS updates, the latest driver updates, the latest Adobe Photoshop updates/versions ...       Crashing Adobe Photoshop is an unacceptable outcome for such a fundamental operation, even if one is working with photos that are truly of larger-than-normal size.  It's COMPLETELY inexcusable when the images in question are of standard sizes produced by current-day camera technology.  The workaround of resizing the original photos is an unacceptable option for someone who is attempting to maximize a print size without resolution loss.

  • Editor stops working in Photoshop Elements 7.3

    I am having probelms with the Photoshop Elements editor stopping working in Windows 7.  It worked for awhile and worked fine in Windows XP.  I have tried unistalling and reinstalling to no avail.  Any ideas???

  • Elements 12 Photo Editor stopped working

    I recently purchased a brand new HP with Windows 8.  I downloaded PS Elements 12 from Amazon last month and a few weeks in, Photoshop Editor stoped working.  I ended up uninstalling it then reinstalling and it worked great for a few days before the Editor crashed again.  This pops up:  "Photoshop Elements 12 Editor 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 am beyond frustrated.  I am trying to get a photography career going and I don't have time for this.  I'm not very computer savvy when it comes to issues like this and honestly have no idea what to do.  I obviously can't keep uninstalling it.  I also don't know if this is a Windows issue or Adobe.  Please help! 

    I'm replying from my e-mail so I hope this works!  Couldn't figure out how to reply on the Adobe discussion board.  But I checked the updates and it said they're all up-to-date and to answer your questions, yes it crashes every time I try to open a photo.  If I'm in the organizer then right click a photo to open in Editor that notification pops up.  So yes, the organizer works just not the Editor. 
    As far as the admin rights, I right-clicked the icon and ran to do so if that's what you're talking about.  Like I mentioned before, I have NO idea what the heck is wrong.  If it's Windows or Adobe...all my friends say I should've gone with an iMac.  Haha.  Sigh

    PSE12 editor stopped working - sas elements 12 editor not working - how can i get editor to work - which has been working fine for a year nowÉ

    Thanks for the quick response ...
    I had already tried deleting the review slide itself, though Captivate wouldn't let me - it just hid it. I tried again using the method you recommended but the slide remained in the filmstrip, so I tried deleting again, then re-added it from the Quiz Settings page ... no joy, same behavior as before.
    I checked the Advanced Interaction page and confirmed that all of the scored questions were configuredthe same way as the non-scored questions, with the only difference being the pool that they were drawing from.
    Other thoughts? I am by no means a Captivate expert but this one really feels like it shouldn't be this hard, and I'm more than a little afraid that it's the file itself that's jacked up ...

  • "Adobe elements has stopped working."

    I've received the error "Adobe elements has stopped working" and then the program closes.  It has happened numerous times and now happens more and more often.  Does anyone have any fixes for this?

    I've been having the same problem.
    Win7 64bit 8GB RAM, 500GB free hard drive space.  All Win updates in place on a regular basis (last time was 2 days ago).
    I often get the "stopped working" popup message on my desktop right after I close the program (well, yeah, I would hope it would stop working when I close it) and also increasingly get it on the desktop when I open the program (before the PE12 screen opens).  This latter popup "stopped working" message will persist until I close the popup window, even though the program is working just fine.
    The most occurrences of actual crashes seem to be when doing a lot of titles (new or editing existing), when saving, and when exporting.
    For awhile it seemed (very subjectively) that rendering the project before saving or exporting possibly helped reduce the number of occurrences, but just now the "stopped working" message popped up and the program quit while I was rendering (got about 80% through).
    This time I checked the "check online for a solution" box, but to no avail--there was a brief period while Windows searched online, and then the program shut down anyway.
    I've tried rebooting, making sure other programs were closed, etc. but nothing really seems to have much effect.  The same project will save or export just fine on one occasion, then if I so much as change a word in a title it will become unstable.  The entire project is 26 minutes long.  One video track (2) with titles, one main video track (1), one audio track (mostly empty) of ambient sound with the video, one sound track.
    I will try Steve's suggestion of Ctrl-Alt-Shift for awhile on opening.  (This helps when PSE tools freeze up.)  Thanks for the tip!

  • Photoshop Elements 7 stopped working

    My Photoshop Elements 7 stopped working.  Error message; "A prpoblem caused theis program to stop working correctly.  Windows will clsoe the program and notify you if a solution is available.  How can I repair?

    Start PSE to get to the Welcome screen.
    Hold down the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys and click Organize. Keep holding down the keys until you see the Catalog window.
    Select your catalog and click Repair.  Select “repair anyway” even if PSE doesn’t find problems.
    Then for good measure, click Optimize.
    If repairing resolves your issue then fine else repeat the above steps, but click New to create a new catalog.  If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works fine, then problem can be old catalog.
    In that case you can try regenerating the thumbnails.  Do Show All, Edit > Select All, and then Edit > Update Thumbnail.
    -Check if AutoAnalyzer.exe is running in your task manager. End the task and try.
    try and let me know your comments.

  • During app load, Premiere elements 11 stopped working all of a sudden. Why?

    Premiere elements 11 stopped working all of a sudden. Says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly" I re-installed it but still the same.
    I haven't installed any other apps except adobe reader and there were a few Windows updates but that was it. Some history - I had defraged my hard drive when this started to happen. Wouldn't the re-install have fixed it if the de-frag caused this problem? What is causing elements to stop loading at the splash screen?

    Thanks for the follow up with the very helpful information.
    If this is one of those Importer QuickTime type issues, the answers are few if any.
    If you have not already tried
    Have you attempted to delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary,
    the whole 11.0 Folder in which it exists.
    then, please try the following...
    My expectations for the following are not high, but worth the time -
    1 uninstall the usual Control Panel way - you might want to uninstall QuickTime at the same time.
    2. free ccleaner run through (regular and registry parts)
    CCleaner - Download
    3. reinstall QuickTime and then Premiere Elements with anti-virus and firewall(s) disabled.
    Others on the list...
    1. Create a new User Account with Administrative Privileges and install and run Premiere Elements
    from there.
    2. Use a new set of installation files either from Adobe if you purchased the program from it as an online
    download, or get tryout installation files for 11 into which you can insert your purchased serial number.

  • I get a "Palm desktop by access applicatio​n has stopped working" message when switching to the Month calendar view.

    I have a Z22 and am running Access version 6.2.2 on a PC with Vista.
    When I move from Day, Week or Year to Monthly view in the Calendar, I get the "Palm Desktop by Access Application has stopped working" (and then the Windows message saying they are checking for a solution, which they never seem to find).
    Does any one know 1) how to fix this and 2) what is the cause ?  Am I running old software which I need to update ?
    Thanks.
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    Thank you, aeisha_anis for the steps to correct this problem.  I verified that I must have corrupted calendar data as the PALM Desktop does come up and work when I follow your first 4 steps and remove the data from it.  I can't, however, get through the importing step at the end of your instructions.  I've tried a few times and am afraid I may have messed up the data file as it now is only showing a datebook. mdb and a datebook.bak file under the DateBook folder I copied to my desktop, but no datebook.dab folder as it was showing before and I never did find the datebook.dat file you mentioned.  I still have all of my current calendar data on my Palm Centro but I can't get it to sync with the Palm Desktop without getting the "Palm Desktop by ACCESS Application has stopped working" message.  Do you have any ideas on how to fix this problem?  Thanks much!

  • I get the "firefox has stopped working" message after closing browser

    Hello.
    My problem is that when I close the FireFox browser I get the "FireFox has stopped working" message. It's pretty annoying. I've read some other posts here that described a similar problem and have tried some of the suggestions in them including:
    A clean install, a browser reset, running in safe mode, unchecking hardware acceleration, disabling extentions and plugins one at a time, uninstalling my antivirus (avast), rolling back to version 23.01 and checking run in compatibility mode that someone claimed helped them. None of this was effective.
    It seems like after a computer restart the browser will be ok for 2-4 closings and then it will start with the message on every closing. Also, after I uninstalled avast it was good for 6 closings. Rolling back also gave me about 6 message free closings. But then the messages start and doesn't stop.
    Is there anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    One thing is for sure, and that is if the only page i visit is the Google homepage (not logged in) or this site (mozilla forum), the problem does not occur, ever. I can't make it happen.
    If i visit yahoo.com (not logged in) (or ighome.com, logged in), as examples, it happens every time.

    I am getting a "setup.exe has stopped working" message when trying to install labview 2011 or 2012 on a windows 7 machine. I already tried running setup.exe as an administrator with the same results. I have Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 installed on the affected machine. Could this be the cause of this issue? Or does someone know the root cause of such error?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi - are you getting it at the start of installation, during or after 100% progress has finished?
    Is it just LabVIEW you're installing, or is it drivers too, in which case, what was the last large package that was installing at the time?
    This could be caused by the NVIDIA chipset driver :
