Elements 9 for mac frozen on screen

I'm using mac os and I was in the middle of downloading photos into the organizer  when the photo downloader froze along with the organizer.  I have shut off my mac a few times and still those two programs are there.  I'm able to get online but not able to shut down those programs.  Can someone please help??
P.S.   I'm pretty much an amature with computers so please take that into consideration.....Good at following direction though.

Also, I take it you're using 10.7? I would then go to your username>library>saved application states folder and delete anything there pertaining to them.
That library is hidden in Lion for some reason. To see it, in the Finder, click the Go menu and hold down the Option key. It will appear in the menu below the little house for your user account.

  • Can you do Green Screen/Blue Screen/Chroma Key on Adobe Premiere Elements 12 for mac?

    Can you do Green Screen/Blue Screen/Chroma Key on Adobe Premiere Elements 12 for mac?  If not, what are the alternatives?

    JimbobT
    ChromaKey, GreenScreen Key, and BlueScreen Key are not included in Premiere Elements Mac.
    Some suggest Videomerge as the alternative. I do not. But Videomerge is not THE alternative.
    Instead, I prefer the Difference Matte as a substitute for the 3 absent keying effects. Please check out my blog post on that which includes
    the how to.
    http://atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-difference-matte-as-substitute-for.html
    The suggestion has met with good results according to the feedback that I have gotten to this.
    I am strictly a Premiere Elements Windows user who does not prefer Videomerge even in Windows.
    Please review, consider, and let us know the outcome.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac does not show up in Applications. Tutorial for editing from iPhoto shows selecting the Adobe software in Applications. Am I missing a step in registering product?

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac does not show up in Applications. Tutorial for editing from iPhoto shows selecting the Adobe software in Applications. Am I missing a step in registering product?

    I answered my own question: There's a difference between "download' and "install." Hunt for "install" (1.5 hrs in my case) and line up your passwords, Adobe ID, etc, then install. Took 15 min. The right choice shows up in Applications. Now it's on to figuring out why photo selected for edit in iPhoto does not show up on screen in Elements.

  • Can't open Photoshop Elements 6 for mac

    I've had Photoshop Elements 6 for mac for over a year and it was working fine although RAW was never able to update.  About a week ago I went to open it and it would not open.  I've tried daily, have done all Apple updates and all Adobe updates and it still wouldn't open.  Then I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it still won't open.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Over the decades, I've found that HOW you start an application can make a difference.  Applications that refused to run when started one way would work very well when started another way.  Speaking as an ex-programmer, this shouldn't happen.  But someone once said that in theory, there's no difference between theory and practice - but in practice, there is.
    You might try to start Elements in different ways to see what happens.
    Try to start Elements by going into the Applications folder and actually clicking on the Elements icon.
    Try to start Elements by double-clicking on a picture.
    Try to start Elements by going into iPhoto, selecting a picture, and clicking on the "Edit" button at the bottom of the screen.  I assume you have told iPhoto to open Elements to edit your pictures.  I've also told iPhoto to open a picture in iPhoto when I double-click on a picture in iPhoto.  I didn't specify that above because I wasn't sure you had done the same.
    At some point, you should realize that you're spending a lot of time trying to get an old version of an application to run.  Elements 8 is out and is running very well on 10.6.3. 
    How much time are you willing to spend to get Elements 6 to work?  I'm not trying to be a salesman for Adobe, but at some point, you should think of paying the money and buying a copy of Elements 8.

  • I currently own Elements 10 for PC and want to upgrade to Elements 12 for MAC.  Is there a MAC version?

    I currently own Elements 10 for PC and want to upgrade to Elements 12 for MAC.  Is there a MAC version?

    mommag
    Yes there is a Premiere Elements 12 Mac.
    Premiere Elements versions are standalone programs. So you would be purchasing a new program with its serial number.
    Upgrade typically goes to a price break if you have a prior version of Premiere Elements and you purchase from Adobe Sales direct.
    Years ago, a user could purchase at a local retailer and get "rebate from Adobe" based on having an earlier version. I have not seen that anymore (for years).
    Remember Premiere Elements 10 Windows projects do not work in Premiere Elements Mac (any version) and the other way around also.
    Also Premiere Elements Mac does not have all the attributes that Premiere Elements Windows has. One example, if you work with green screen, know that Premiere Elements Mac does not have the Green Screen Key, Blue Screen Key, or Chroma Key Effects.
    Please let us know if we have targeted your question.
    Thank you.

  • Elements 11 for Mac: "Guided Edits" stuck on "Initializing"

    I purchased and downloaded Elements 11 for Mac. I opened the Photoshop Elements Editor, opened a photo and clicked on the "Guided" Tab. It then said "Initializing" and has been stuck there. I deleted and re-download and installed the program - but the same problem occurs. Also - the welcome screen is non-existant...Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    The welcome screen is a separate program, and unless you deliberately launch it, either from the button in the last screen of the installer or from here:
    you won't ever see it. If you want to always start from the welcome screen for some reason (can't think of a good one), launch it from applications and then before you click anything in it, choose Keep in Dock from the dock icon's contextual menu. But it's simpler just to make a dock shortcut for both editor and organizer if you need both and forget about the welcome screen entirely.
    For your problem with guided edit, do you have any kind of antivirus or anything from Symantec on your mac? If so, disable it and try uninstalling/reinstalling with it off.

  • Loading .gif animations into Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac

    For years I used Photoshop Elements 2 for Windows to make .gif animations with great success. 
    Then I switched to a Mac and bought Elements 8 for Mac.  Now, I am finding out that I can not load any
    of the animations I made using Elements 2 into 8.  (And yet I can load animations I made using 8 into 2.)
    In fact, I can not load any .gif animations into 8, other than if I make one and save it
    as .psd.  8 allows me to make them, but not load them as .gifs.
    My question:  Is there an easy way to load .gif animations into PS Elements 8 so a
    person can work on the individual frames?  Am I going to have to convert any .gif animation I
    want to import into 8 first into .psd?  All I seem to get when I try to load a .gif is the message
    "This is an animated gif.   You can only view one frame." I have searched manuals and the
    Net looking for a specific method of using PSE8 to load gif animations intact (not just one frame). 
    Is it possible?  Thanks. (I also have noticed that Elements 8 will not allow me to change the frame
    speed -- it is unchangeable at .2)

    Dear Ms. Brundage -
    I followed the directions detailed in your blog entitled "Moving a Catalog from Windows to Mac" as well as your description of the process on page 58 of your book "Photoshop Elements 9 - the missing manual." 
    I installed PE9 for Windows and converted my catalog.  I then backed up that catalog to an external hard drive.  I then connected the hard drive to my MAC on which I also installed Photoshop Elements 9 for MAC.  I opened the Organizer and tried to restore that converted catalog.  However, for each file in the converted catalog, a dialog box opened that said "Could not restore file:  /Volumes/Name of External Hard Drive/Filename.JPG."
    I then made a second backup of the converted catalog using Photoshop Elements 9 for Windows and then tried to restore that catalog again on the MAC using Photoshop Elements 9 for MAC, again to no avail.
    Do you have any idea what the problem may be?
    Thanks again.

  • Save for Web does not open dialog box in PS Elements 8 for Mac

    After opening an image and selecting Save for Web, the Save for Web dialog box fails to appear. I've seen similar reports for PS Elements 6 for Mac, but did not find the same files in those directories. Running iMac with OS 10.6.

    There are many things that only work in an admin account, but if you're willing to take the trouble, you can change the permissions to allow them to work in a standard account. See:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/362899
    Note that it's pretty important to run Save for Web one time in the admin account after changing the permissions or it still won't work in the standard account.

  • File menu bug in Elements 8 for Mac

    I recently purchased Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac. While the software overall works very well, I noticed a bug which has now started hampering my work. Out of the blue, 'Open', 'Open New Blank File' and 'Browse with Bridge' in the file menu become grey (disabled) and shotrcuts for opening files (Command-O and Command-N) or clicking on the open new file icon yield no result. Preferences menu cannot be accessed as well. As per the software license, I installed Elements on an iMac running OS 10.5.8 and on my MacBook running OS 10.4.11 I am having this problem on both :-( The menus do appear but intermittently. Any help to fix this bug would be deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I got it!!!!!
    It's a clipboard related problem! Whenever I copy an image (a vector image or graphic specifically) from any application, New 'Image from Clipboard' option (in the file menu) gets enabled in Elements 8 and due to it, all menus relating to opening a new file get disabled including, strangely, preferences. Somehow Elements assumes that the new file/image will be the same as the one in the clipboard. The moment I copy any text in any application (so that the clipboard does not have any graphic in it), the disabled Elements menus get enabled! It seems Elements 8 does not support vector graphics perhaps that's why..

  • Where can I get a copy of elements 8 for mac

    Suddenly, when I try to open Elements 8 for Mac I get the message, "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I tried repairing it using Support's nine suggested solution. None worked.
    I no longer have my original DMG file I downloaded (don't ask me why). I do have the serial number in my Adobe account so I can install and run another copy. But, I need a copy. Where can I get one without paying a second time for it?
    I'm happy with PSE 8 and feel no pressing need to upgrade. I just want back what I had before this sudden development.
    Thanks.
    Terry

    I really appreciate the link. Unfortunately, it says a copy is no longer available for Mac OSX. Do you know if I can still get one somewhere else from Adobe? It's their product that failed me. I'm going to switch to Acorn, a nice low-priced full featured PSE alternative. I already use Lightroom for my photography but need graphic design capabilities for my website, business cards, etc. 
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac OS X don't install

    Hi, I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac OS X. My system currently is
    System Information:
    Operating System OS X 10.8.2 = (12C60)
    Locale = pl
    Macbook Pro, 10 GB DD3, 1333 MHz, 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7

    What should I do?

  • Is anybody use LR with Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac ?

    I've just bought Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac on a PM G5 (OS 10.5.2). PSE works but LR don't find it as external editor. I have done what is the Knowledge Base, I've deleted all adobe products (and all related files in /Library an home/Library) and reinstall only PSE 6 and LR 1.3.1 .
    In KB, they tell that LR uses a com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist but PSE 6 creates a com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist (without a dot between Photoshop and Elements). I've tried to duplicates this file but that does not work.
    I don't understand why LR does not provide a way to specify where Photoshop (or Elements) is. I don't know what to do now.

    For some reason Adobe decided to change the bundle name for the PSE6 application from com.adobe.photoshop.elements to com.adobe.PhotoshopElements. This change is also reflected in the Preferences file names.
    Lightroom (1.3.1 and 1.4) seem to use the MacOS core services to find PSE - but use the com.adobe.photoshop.elements (and com.adobe.photoshop for full PS) bundle names.
    The immediate fix, if you're handy with a hex editor, is to go into the Lightroom application bundle, find the file AgEditExternally.lua and patch the string "com.adobe.photoshop.elements" in the file so it becomes "com.adobe.PhotoshopElements" (remember a null terminator and make a copy of the file first!).
    If that's Greek to you then either live with it and wait for an official fix or set up Elements 6 as the 'Additional External Editor'.

  • Adobe PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac

    I've downloaded, without difficulty, the Adobe PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac 30 day trial onto my Pismo running OS 10.4.8 with 1GB of RAM. As soon as I try to open a photo the application crashes. I know the G3 processor (500 MHz) will be slow but it shouldn't be impossible for it to cope. Adobe's site says that G4 or higher is required. Perhaps I should look at earlier versions of the application. Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated

    Hi, Tim. As you've noted, your Pismo doesn't meet the minimum System Requirements for PSE6:
    *PowerPC® G4 or G5 or multicore Intel® processor (your Pismo has a G3)*
    - Mac OS X v10.4.8 through 10.5.2
    - 512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
    *64MB of video RAM (your Pismo has 8MB)*
    - 1GB of available hard-disk space (additional free space required during installation)
    - 1,024x768 monitor resolution with 16-bit video card
    - DVD-ROM drive
    - QuickTime 7 software required for multimedia features
    - Internet connection required for Internet-based services
    (boldface added)
    Yes, if I were you I'd try to buy an earlier version of PSE.
