Elements 3.0 Trial expired - photos trapped

I failed to heed the warning to register while using the trial version of Elements 3.0 to store photos.  Now I am locked out and the code no longer works.  Tech support will not help me get to my photos.  Help please?

Elements 3 is four or five years old, no longer supported by Adobe.  The pictures are not "trapped", they are on your Windows PC's hard drive.  If you did not use a catalog back then, you can just open them in Windows or with any image viewer.  If you want access to the old catalog you can start out by downloading and installing the trial version of the current edition of Elements, PSE7.  It will convert the old catalog.  If you like PSE7, you can purchase it and go from there.

  • Premiere Elements 11 Mac Trial expires on first launch

    Hi,
    I downloaded the trail of Adobe Premiere Elements 11 for Mac today as I'm looking for an alternative to iMovie.
    I installed it as soon as it was finished and all went OK.  I did the trail signup part and created and Adobe account but when Premiere Elements 11 started I got a popup window saying my Trial has expired and I only have this one launch left!!  What?  Is it really only a single launch trial or has something gone screwy?
    I like the look of it so far but come on, surely I can get more than a single trial launch?
    Using Mac OSX 10.8.2 and never tried an Adobe Trail before so its not a legacy install or anything.
    Thanks,
    Andy

    Sorry but thats completely unhelpful.   I have never used an Adobe Product before on this machine, Flash excluded.  I downloaded the trail which took 45 mins, isntalled it and then launched it.  One the very first launch it told me the trial had expired so I only had that single launch.  I had a quick go with it and then closed it.  When I try and open again it tells me its expired!
    I do not have another machine to try it on.   As per your link
    Changing the system clock - Nope, didn't do that.
    Modifying the executable file - What now??
    Attaching a debugger - Errrrr.  No idea what a debugger is.
    Automated virus scans - Don't run a virus scanner on my Mac.
    So basically I've wasted all that download data from my capped connection and had exactly 20 minutes for my trouble and thats it.  I'm not asking to extend the trial.  I'm asking FOR THE TRIAL!  To have it expire on me straight away is rubbish when I haven't done anything.  Well, I guess you've lost me as potential customer then.  I was going to try Photoshop CS6 as well but not going to bother now.

  • How do I recover photos after the lightroom trial expired?

    So my lightroom trial expired before I could export 20 some photos from it. I can't buy the program, but I really need those pictures. help.

    I dare say so.
    However, LR5.2 is largely to fix bugs in LR5.0.  LR5.0 was released on 9th June, and a number of significant bugs (that affect quite a lot of users) were acknowledged by Adobe on 12th June.  I'd quite like to think that Adobe can fix those significant bugs with a full release (not another RC) within 3 months.

  • What will happen when my Aperture trial expires?

    I downloaded the trial version of Aperture 3, this will expire in 5 days time. I have decided that I am not going to buy the full licensed version yet as I have found it to be too buggy in it's present form, and for now iPhoto meets my needs. I did not import my whole iphoto library but have just been trying it out on around 100 photos that I imported directly. I also have copies of these photos stored in iPhoto.
    What will happen in 5 days when the trial expires and should I uninstall it?

    I'm just guessing, but when the day arrives, when you invoke Aperture (like so many other trial software), you get a message asking for the license, if you can't provide it, Aperture will shut down.
    If you think you may come back to AP, you can always invoke it when you have a license.
    Of course, if one or more upgrade to AP come along, you won't have a way to test them out. I'd suggest you stay close to this forum and read about them, see how other users feel about the upgrade(s).

  • I recently subscribed to Acrobat XI after the trial expired but when I went to activate it I was asked for the serial number. I only have the order number on the invoice. How do I get the serial number for the trial software that is on my computer?

    Please do not try to send attachments in mail responses to forum messages. Please return to the forum and click Reply. You can then use the CAMERA icon to add your pictures. Looking forward to seeing what is wrong with your license screens - the general advice is simply to sign in, and everything is done. Make sure you use the SAME Adobe ID that you used to purchase, and check your account details to be sure the subscription is active.

  • I Purchased Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium for Mac about 4 years ago and now every time i launch one of the applications it says "Trial expired"

    I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 5 and Premiere Pro CS5 in late 2010 and I use the applications on a daily basis, until now. About a month ago I decided to create an adobe account and log in since it asks me every time, after i logged in the applications worked for about a day or two but on the third day i was getting an error that said trial expired on every CS5 application i opened except for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 Adobe Bridge CS5 and  Adobe Onlocation CS5, I no-longer have the original boxes with the serial numbers due to the fact that I moved about a year ago and the boxes with the serial numbers must have been accidentally thrown away (trust me i have spent hours looking for them, i opened every box i have). What can i do to get my products working again? To repurchase all of the products it will cost thousands of dollars that i don't have.
    Thanks for reading!

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 will not open photo files

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 will not open photo files

    You are rude, to say the least.  It is adobe's fault for marketing it as compatible.  Yet another reason why I want nothing to do with adobe.  The fact they marketed it as compatible when it is not is what I have a problem with.  I am not blaming the software, I am blaming the company.

  • Cannot use PhotoShop CS6 after trial expired, even after purchasing Creative Cloud Student Edition

    Hi.
    I had PhotoShop CS6 trial, which expired.
    I have purchased Creative Cloud student edition, I receive a message that my PhotoShop trial has expired.
    I am prompted to purchase the product to extend it, or type in the product's serial number
    (I never received a serial number.)
    I paid for Creative Cloud and have an order number, I should not be having this issue. 
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled PhotoShop CS6 multiple times, I also use DreamWeaver and am fearful that I will encounter the same issue. How can I use the Photoshop CS6 after I have paid for it?
    Curonda in Milwaukee, WI.

    Hi.
    The trial expired 2 weeks ago - Monday.
    I purchased the Cloud Yesterday, also 2 weeks ago Monday 10/15/2012.
    I purchased it twice thinking 1 purchase did not complete.
    I still will need to request a refund for 1, I've been too busy between, work, school, and kid. I'm at work now.

  • Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired.

    Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired. Keeps asking to buy the trial version or license the software (in reference to the CS6 trial, even though I'm loading my own Acrobat 9 Pro from my CS4 Creative Suite I purchased and had previously installed--still installed to my knowledge...at least I never uninstalled it anyway, if that helps)
    Thank you!

    Yes. I have tried to repair it, but it still didn't work. I had to completely uninstall - reboot - then do a clean install. Works beautifully for a few weeks, then nothing.
