Elements 13 Editor Won't Open

I recently upgraded from Elements 11 to 13.
The new Organizer works fine, and the catalogue converted fine.
But when I try to use the Editor, it won't open. It asks me to sign in with an Adobe ID and to register the product. (It is registered).
After a wait, it says my internet is not working (which it is) or that my clock is set wrong (which it is correct).
Very frustrating, as I can't work with my pictures. I had no problem with Editor from Elements 11.
What is the issue?|

I haven't used Norton in years.  Maybe one of the links here can help:

  • Photoshop Elements 9 Editor Won't Open

    I have PSE 9, and the editor won't open (organizer will, but not editor). When I click "Edit" from the welcome screen, the welcome screen just disappears and nothing happens. I tried accessing the editor directly from the program files folder, and again, nothing happens . I tried right-clicking on photos and telling them to open in PSE. Nothing happens. No error messages or anything-- it just won't open.
    It worked fine on my old computer in Windows 7, but I recently got a new computer with Windows 8. I tried running in compatibility mode for Windows 7, but that doesn't solve the problem. I also tried uninstalling and re-installing.
    Please help me-- this is driving me nuts! Thanks.

    Yes, but the odds are that you chose the logical file instead of the correct one. The actual editor is hidden away inside the support files folder for PSE 13 and the file at the top level of the Applications>PSE 13 folder is just an alias to the Welcome Screen. You really want this one:

  • After 2 mos, Adobe Elements 12 Editor won't open

    Worked fine before, now Editor won't open at all either from the Organizer or from anywhere else, such as Lightroom. Suggestions please

    Interesting.  I just closely examined the error dialogs I was getting when PSE 12 failed to launch.  There were numerous problems with case sensitivity errors for various frameworks inside the application.  For instance, one of the errors complained that it could not find the "AdobeLinguistic" framework.  The reason evidently is that the name was actually spelled without capitals.  It was "adobelinguistic".  I manually correct quite a number of these types of errors by renaming the offending area in the Framworks section of the application bundle.  This continued with each launch.  I'd get a new error.   I'd correct it and try again.  Another error.  Another correction.  Finally, it got past all the issues and launched PSE 12.  However, at that point, there was some internal error in PSE 12 (no surprise) that prevented it from running yet didn't show any kind of dialog where I could attempt to perform any further corrections.  I suspect this may have something to do with the fact that I have my disk partition setup as a case sensitive partition.  If someone else has a disk that is not case sensitive, I suspect they wouldn't see this error.
    I've reported this as a bug on the Photoshop Family Customer Community in the hopes that someone from Adobe will see it and take corrective action.
    I realize that some of you may find this post over your head a bit technically and for that I apologize.  But since I had already posted here earlier, I wanted to get this out so people would understand that there does appear to be a real issue with PSE 12.  We'll see what Adobe has to say.

  • Help please!Photoshop Elements 8 editor won't open any files (windows 7)

    I have Photoshop elements 8 for my windows 7 laptop. I updated my laptop and now Photoshop won't open any files. I click on the psd/jpeg/png that i want to open(file,open) and nothing appears in the editor. even if i try by double clicking it the editor will show up but no file.i have tried restarting the laptop but it still wont work. I can't uninstall photoshop because it came pre-installed on my laptop and no disc or installer came with it. If anyone can please help me i'd be very gratefull.

    Quit the editor, then restart it while holding down Ctrl+alt+shift. Keep those keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.

  • Elements 7 editor won't open

    I have elements 7 and the editor won't load. It gets as far as the twain menu items loading and aborts. I tried holding Ctrl   shift  alt as suggested in another post but no luck. I am using windows 8. I had this problem before and an adobe assistant helped me out but I guess I don't qualify for that type of assistance this time around.

    Try deleting the Editor's preferences, step 1 of this FAQ:

  • Photoshop Elements 7 editor won't open

    I have Photoshop Elements 7. The organizer, create and share tabs work fine but when I try to open any 3 of the editor modes I get the error message: Unable to continue because of a hardware or system error. Sorry, but this error is unrecoverable.
    I tried restarting my computer because I heard that someone was able to fix a similar problem that way, but it didn't work. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Try this
    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.

  • PLEASE HELP! Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 editor won't open!!

    Hi! I'm new to the forums and to Adobe. So, I'm a little clueless about all this stuff.
    WELL
    everytime I click my Photoshop icon the welcome screen appears and the editor begins to load.
    However, the screen doesn't pop up at all. Just the welcome screen. It just shows the Photoshop Elements editor's small window on the bottom of my screen. I click on it and the editor doesn't show up at all.
    It did this a couple of times before. But, now the editor isn't showing.
    My organizer works just fine, but I'm wondering if I can somehow open Photoshop's editor on the organizer?
    If you could please PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME and reply as soon as possible! I would love to draw  and color on Photoshop again as soon as I have fix this problem!
    Thank you so much!
    -Marley

    Try making a direct desktop icon for the Organizer and Editor and that will bypass the welcome screen and any advertising.
    On Windows right click on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    And find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    Inside the Adobe >> Photoshop Elements Organizer (yellow folder) you are looking for an application file “PhotoshopEementsOrganizer” with six small icons (e.g. representing thumbnails)
    Select it and click OK
    Click next
    Rename by taking out Photoshop Elements leaving just the word Organizer
    Then click finish
    You should now be able to launch directly form the desktop by double clicking on the icon.
    You can set up a similar direct link to the Editor application (.exe file which has the blue PSE icon). As before take out Photoshop Elements just leaving the description Editor and it will show up clearly on the desktop.
     You can keep the standard Photoshop icon which links to the welcome screen but I prefer to delete it from the desktop. If you ever need to get to the welcome screen you simply click Window >>Welcome on the top menu when the application is open.
     

  • Photoshop Elements 12 editor won't open.

    I get the Adobe sign-in menu when I try to open it asking me if I want to buy or try a 30-day trial.  I can open the Organizer (by going into the program files).  I have been using PSE 12 on my MAC for several months--no problem.  Do I need to reload the program?  If so, how?

    Did you install other programs or drivers since the last time your PSE12 editor worked? If so, did you try to restore windows with an earlier restorepoint which should be stored on your computer? You'll find info about restoring your windowsversion on the Microsoft website (for O.S. windows 7 look at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/system-restore). For other O.S. just google

  • PSE 11 Editor Won't Open Due to my "tampering"

    Photo Elements 11 Editor won’t open. (I also have PSE 6 and Editor now won’t open in it). I have Windows XP. Editor was working fine until I was trying to get my Viveza 2 plug-in into PSE 11 (I had it in PSE6 and all was fine).  I looked all over internet and could not find answer. Went into PSE 11 Editor screen and from one of the tabs I saw a place for plug-ins—you could browse for folder/file of plug-in (or so I thought). I went to Viveza folder inside my NIK folder and clicked it. After that --- Editor no longer loads in PSE 11 or 6. I have tried resetting Preferences—no help. I don’t even know what tab I used in Editor since I cannot open it. Any thoughts? I thought about uninstalling and reinstalling but think nothing will change since PSE6 was affected too. Need to change whatever I did to the file.
    Any thoughts?? Thanks!

    Try these solutions to see if any of these work.
    If none of them works, let me know.
    Solution1:
    Close Elements. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor. 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.
    Solution2:
    In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution3:
    In case that does not work too, you may try this.
    Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.

  • Ringtone editor won't open

    When I click on the ringtone "bell" symbol, I'm sent to a page that tells me either to click on the bell (which I've already done), or to the Store menu and click on "create ringtone" -- but "create ringtone" is grayed out.
    What do I do??? This never happened before. I'm using OS X 10.5.2 with an original iPhone updated with 2.0 software.

    Do you get any error messages?  Also, can you launch it manually by going to the program folder with Windows Explorer and double clicking on "PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe" file?  On a windows system the file is located at:
    <C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop elements>
    Also for version 5.0 the file may be called something else..  You just need to use some guess work.  You can only launch .exe files  so just have a go and post back.

  • G6 Experience Definition Editor won't open

    Any ideas?

  • Editor won't open on newly installed PE8

    I just got PE 8 for Christmas and installed it on my computer today. I am running XP, and my computer meets or exceeds all the requirements for the program to work. When I open the software, the Organizer works fine, but the Editor won't open. Every time I click on it it "thinks" for a minute, and then the Windows error window pops up telling me to send an error report. I've restarted my computer numerous times to no avail. I haven't uninstalled it and tried it again yet because I got a message saying I needed to deactivate the serial number to uninstall, and that made me nervous so I didn't do it. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, I was so excited to get to use the software and am now completely frustrated that it won't work. Thank you!
    Message was edited by: LAS1598 for a typo

    Try the following. I put it in an older post in this forum Jan 4 I believe.
    Called PSE tech support and had it working in 5 minutes.
      goto  C:/Program Files(X86)/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 8.0/Locales/en_us/Plug-ins/import-export    and file
       Twain_32    has to be renamed to   ~Twain_32      .
    next  goto   C:/Windows/twain_32          in this directory I had to remove a folder called Dell which was associated with an A940 printer that doesn't work on windows 7.   The only file left was    wiatwain.ds    .
      with the 2 above change PSE came right up in editor mode.
      My system is a Quad core from Dell  630i,  8 GB ram and running Windows 7.
    maybe same problem in XP, don't know.

  • I installed elements 12, it won't open, a screen pops up with options for e-12 and 4 other language

    I installed elements 12, it won't open, a screen pops up with options for e-12 and 4 other languages.  When I click Elements 12 a screen pops up with a red install icon, I click it and it askes for the serial number.

  • Captivate 5.5 skin editor won't open

    I'm working in Captivate 5.5, and the Skin Editor won't open, either from the Project menu or with Shift+F11. Any idea what's causing that? Is there another way to get at the Skin Editor, such as through the Publish dialog box? I couldn't find another way.
    -Stuart

    Hi Stuart
    At any point have you had a second monitor attached? If so, it's quite possible that the dialog is indeed opening, but was last opened on the second monitor. In that case you need to either make your resolution large enough so that you see the dialog sitting in the odd location or re-connect the second monitor so you may then view the dialog and drag it back to the visible area of the screen.
    Cheers... Rick
