Elements 7 with Windows 7???

I recently updated my computer to Windows 7 (heaven to get away from that TERRIBLE Vista) but one thing went horribly wrong - Photoshop Elements no longer works right! Everything EXCEPT the edit function works alright, but since EDIT is the function I use 99% of the time, that is "a bit" of  a drag.....
Is there anybody out there who has experienced the same problem??? I find NOTHING searching the net, and am more than a little confused that I'd be the only person in the whole world who this has happened to. I have reinstalled, several times, tried getting to the edit function various ways, tried going from e.g. RAW files straight to the editor - all with the same abysmal result! I get a dialogue box with "Photoshop Elements has stopped working" and then the usual "lovely" idea that I should "search for a solution". Since that never happens, here I am....
Help? anyone?
Cheers,
Bernt

If you don't mind me asking, what exactly good do you think that will do?
Adobe already "fixed" all the bugs they intend to in PSE-7, and they call it PSE-8. Then for good measure they have injected some new bugs into that. Meanwhile they'll try to humor people asking for new features in PSE-9. Yeah, you'll get your "new features", along with an even more bloated pig of a program and a new set of bugs. The programmers in some 3rd world slum are just waiting to humor you, and respond to your every little whim.
There never are any real "updates" from Adobe on older versions of PSE. All the Adober "Updater" does, is generate advertising messages.  Get your head out of your ***, that's not an "updater" it's ADWARE...! And, it's adware that you can't even shut down with Windows "Task Manager", since if you do, the program crashes.  >>> Adobe wants to "updater" you out of another hundred bucks, period.
Now, many people, (including myself), have responded to these threads about whether or not PSE-7 will run under Win 7, it does, (sort of). Just be prepared for your own little personal "bug surprise".
Then there's "Plan "B"...! Buy a copy of Windows 7, and install "XP Mode", then install PSE-7 into that. A couple hundred bucks will end your misery! Or will it?
I have installed PSE-7 into 2 Windows 7 Machines. The Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installation, (i3-530 4GB RAM), is the only one that will generate a set thumnails without having to go out for a beer while it does. And, it has the same problems as the 32 bit Win 7 installation.So, I'm thinking you can't really blame the 64 bit OS for any woes with the program. Windows installs 32 bit programs into an x86 (32 bit) folder, and runs them as such anyway. So, if there's problems, it's more likely that the problem is with the device drivers

    A senior citizen needs some help.
    Thanks

    Saving each image as different size - is it an option for you?  I would save images with their name as: 20x30.png, 16x20.png etc etc.
    Or explain whether you want these in a webpage  in which case only one image is necessary and different sizes are displayed with good CSS code.  this is question for Dreamweaver forum if this is what you want.

    How do add .mov files in Premiere Elements 11 with Windows 8? I get a generic error message.

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for your quick response. The original movies were taken on a Canon ES970 (1990's). I don't know the resolution but things were not as high tech back then.,.. I used a Roxio software to convert them on my MacBook Air. I didn't realize that I could use Adobe Premiere Elements to do that or I would have. However my old camera did not have a cable to attach it to a computer and the Roxio software came with it.
    I then saved the recordings on an external hard drive. I did not make movies from them using iMovie or edit them in any way. They are simply .MOV files and they can be played on my Mac. Upon realizing how much memory it takes to work on videos, I decided it might be easier to burn DVD's on my husband's  new Dell desktop that came with Windows 8. I downloaded Quicktime as suggested and still the movies can't be added to Premiere.

    USING PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 9 WITH WINDOWS 7 I HAVE THREE SMALL BOXES FOR A CURSOR IN PLACE OF A SMALL ARROW.  HOW CAN I CORRECT THIS ISSUE.  I HAVE LOADED THE TWO PATCH FILES THAT ARE NOT RAW FILE RELATED BUT I STILL HAVE THE ISSUE.

    First all, please don't write in all caps.  Dificult to read and very rude, it's like shouting.
    Secondly, you're in the wrong forum.  You want the Elements forum:

    I am running Premier Elements 11 with Windows 8.1. The font size is so small Elements is unusable. Is there a fix or workaround for this problem? My computer is Dell XPS13.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Sorry that the display is not better. You are correct - in Windows 8.1 64 bit
    Control Panel
    Appearance and Personalization
    Display
    the choices are 100% and 125%.
    There are some user "Custom Sizing Options" and other under that. But, if you have all the settings maximized, it would seem that you have
    the best viewing situation for your particular setup.
    I do not see the opportunity for improving your situation in this matter moving to Premiere Elements 12/12.1 or 13/13.1.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.

    Pse 4 does seem to work on an windows 8.1 x64 install, although during the installation it gave an
    compatibility message, but didn't say why, so i installed pse 4 anyway and so far it seems to work.
    If pse 4 doesn't work to your satisfaction or won't install, you can always upgrade tp photoshop elements 12, which should work fine on windows 8.

    Just a just in case mention if you try to download and install Premiere Elements 13 to your Windows XP 32 bit or 64 bit computer....
    I was able to download the Adobe tryout for Premiere Elements 13 to my Windows 7 64 bit computer, but it would not install as per Adobe's statement that Premiere Elements 13 on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Mac OSX 10.7 is not supported.
    If Window XP is your only computer, then you probably will be able to download the Premiere Elements 13 tryout but not install it.
    Do you have Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer as well as the XP?

  • Premiere Elements 3 with Windows 7

    I have been using Premiere Elements 3.0 with windows XP and it has been sufficient for what I want to do. I have now upgraded to Windows 7 and the disk will not reinstall the program. I noticed that there was an update for Vista of Premiere Elements 3.0.2, which I tried, but that progam won't run unless I have my original program installed. How can I resolve this to get the progam onto the system? Thanks.

    I think XP Mode is only for W7 Pro and W7 Ult. If running under any other of the W7 variants you only get the the 'traditional' Vista compatbility mode. If you have a genuine XP license you can install and run XP in a virtual PC.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 with Windows 8 64 bits

    I have seen that Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11 are compatible with Windows 8.1; is that correct also for Windows 8.4 64 bits or only for the 32 bits version? Thank you. MM

    PSE11 will run as a 32-bit application in W8.1-64, PRE11 will run as a 64-bit application.

  • Elements 5 with Windows 8 problems

    I just got a new Windows 8 computer from an old XP. I had Elements 5, and it was reinstalled along with my canon camera. I know next to nothing about all this and have my brother do it. I have not been able to get my Elements to work like it did on the Windows XP. When I used to plug my camera in, the Elements  downloader would open and connect with the camera.  Now I cannot get that to happen even though I see the camera in the drop down list. I have tried for a week to get it to get photos from the camera. Instead, another program from the camera gets them. I don't understand anything else, so want the Elements to work like it used to. So I went into the menu and tried many times to click on "Check of Updates" just like my guide said to do. But I can't get the update button to even work. Nothing happens if I click all day on it! So I am stuck. Is this problem with Elements working and not being able to update it have something to do with Windows 8? Will I have to just get it uninstalled? Using the My Pictures to do all this was always too complicated for someone like me!

    The update command in PSE 5 never did anything, as far as I know.
    Please download the PSE 5.0.2 patch and install that, and see if the problem goes away. If that doesn't work ...

    I don't think uninstalling would fix the problem. I think you are going to have to learn a new way of doing things.

  • Photoshop Elements Compatability with Windows 7

    Do you have any downloads to make photoshop elements 4.0 compatible with windows 7?

    What I can't understand is that on my old computer when I upgraded to windows 7 from XP the programme worked fine.  Kept all my folders and  photo's but on my new computer with windows 7 factory installed it comes up with a message, ''This programme has known compatibility issue with this operating system,  check online for a solution'' which I have have done and there is nothing to help me.  It looks like I will have buy a up to- date programme.  Thanks very much for your help everybody.
