Error message - photoshop elements editor has stopped working

Hi - I've installed photoshop elements 8 twice, and I still get the error message "photoshop elements editor has stopped working" .  I can't seem to get beyond this point.  My system is Windows Vista.  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks

I suddenly started getting the same error message and was reaching my wits end in trying to find a solution.
This may sound bizarre, and you may not have the same situation as I found, but check your system/Windows date setting.
Somehow, the year on my system had become 2096. I corrected it, and bingo! PSE 8 Editor works again.

  • "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working"...message

    I am very very very new to this...and have had so much trouble I'm ready to ask for a refund!  After installing and watching tutorials and not being able to load any pictures to the 'organizer'...(my autoplay does not show the "Organize and Edit Photos" or show the Photo Downloader...I finally called Customer Service.  He told me I needed to uninstal and reinstall.  Ok..I've done that.  But it's still not on Autoplay.  At least he showed me where the file menu is on the 'organizer', so I could get some pictures in there.  But when I click on 'Edit Photos', I get the pop-up message, "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working"....It never HAS worked....This thing just came out of the box today and has too many problems for a newby like me.  What is the problem?  Actually, there are the two problems.  HELP!

    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  9\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works. Let me know if you have any comments.
    Thanks

  • Vista 64-bit issues "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working"

    I recently purchased Elements 8 and to this point have been unable to use the editor function.  I can "Organize" without complaint but when I attempt to edit a photo I get a message telling me that "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working."  I have attempted to uninstall and re-install and the result has been the same.  While researching online I see that there are a number of people that have this issue but have been unable to find any real solution.  Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the PSE Editor might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash.   Here are some steps you can take to try to fix the problem:

    It's very likely that your issues are unrelated to the fact that you're running on 64-bit Vista as opposed to 32-bit Vista.

    when I try to load a film, I get an error message "Premier Elements 12 has stopped working"

    You'll need to get the specs for these videos and set up your Premiere Elements project accordingly. (MOV is just the package for the files. It tells you nothing of the video specs.)
    Open the video files in the free download G Spot or Media Info and post to this forum the dimensions, frame rate and audio and video codecs listed.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working... how can I make it work?

    Hi.  I have just bought a new copy of Photoshop Element 9.  It installed OK, but when I try to open the Editor, I get the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem", followed shortly by the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 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".  The only option then is Close Program.  The Organizer has the same problem.
    Does anyone know how to get it to work?  It hasn't just stopped working, it has never worked at all.  If anyone at Adobe are monitoring this thread, please can you tell me what the problem is and how to sort it out?  I tried the Adobe call-back service but all I got was a computer phoning me up, and no person available.

    Hi,
    Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
    Solution 1:
    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.
    Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 4:
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 has stopped working

    I cannot get my elements to work.  The following message pops up when I go to the front "editor" page:
      "Photoshop Elements 12 has stopped working".
    It's urgent that Elements works now - I don't have time to troubleshoot while I am editing 4,000 photos
    Thank you,
    Catherine

    This is the only way I have found to use PSE-12 since the "Stopped Working" problem appeared;  Perhaps Adobe can use this work-around to solve the problem:
    1. Press Shift and hold (until thumbnails appear).
    2. Open Photoshop Elements 12 (PSE)
    3. Select "My Catalog" or what you call it. (Note: I have PSE open Organizer directly.  I have 2 catalogs, My Catalog and Selling.)
    4. If you have 2 catalogs you must open "My Catalog" first.
    5. When the thumbnails appear you can release the Shift key.  You are in business.
    6.  To open the other catalog use File/Manage Catalogs, Select the other catalog and click Open. (Note:  If you open the secondary/other catalog first PSE will stop working.)
    This is a little more work to get started but I have been using it for 2-3 weeks now without the "Stopped Working" occurring.  Good Luck.

  • TS4062 I keep getting the error message "apple outlook DAV has stopped working"

    My phone and I pad all of the sudden just stopped syncing with my desktop.  I have had my phone for over a year when 4s first came out and everything was syncing fine.  Then all the sudden it stopped.  I keep getting the error message "apple outlook DAV has stopped working".  I have rebooted, checked for duplicates, signed in and out of the cloud and still nothing.  Has anyone had this problem and know of a good way to handle it.  Also, now my phone and Ipad don't sync with the cloud either.  Please help.

    Windows 7 Professional.  I meant that when I open a word doc and want to turn it into a PDF, i get the same error message.  In the mean time I paid the $40.00 and spoke to Adobe and after 40 minutes, they re-installed Reader X instead of XI so now it works but I am not overly thrilled that I had to pay for it.

  • Error Message: Unfortunately Xperia Home has stopped working

    I have had my Z3 for nearly 3 weeks now and until this morning all was working well - loved the phone! 
    2 things happened this morning (may be connected).
    On first trying to use the phone (from it being asleep overnight) the screen froze and it would do nothing.  I left it a few minutes (so it went back to sleep again) and all appeared then to be fine.  I did a restart.
    A little later (no more than 90mins) I found the phone to be showing an error message - Unfortunately Xperia Home has stopped working - (OK).   On clicking OK, message appeared again, and again and again. I tried rebooting the phone and hoped this would clear the error. It didn't.  I was, however, by a very round about route able to get on-line. 
    Swipe down to quick settings
    Settings
    Change home screen to simple
    Error message still came up but would go once I clicked OK. I managed to get online and did a search for the error - found this thread:
    http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-J/Unfortunately-Xperia-Home-has-stopped-Working/td-p/720607 
    I had a system update that had downloaded and was ready to install, so before trying to clear all the data on xperia home (as suggested in the thread - Apps - All - Xperia Home - clear data) I ran the update.  This didn't clear the error - Xperia home has stopped working. 
    So, I followed the instructions on the thread above ie, all apps, xperia home, clear data. (It doesn't actually clear all the data, your accounts, passwords etc are all left intact. However, it does clear your home screens of all settings and personalisation (although it didn't change my background).  
    Touch wood, the phone now seems to be OK (having reset my home screens.
    Having been an xperia user for a number of years (I loved my Z and had no problems with it and actually delayed upgrading) I am extremely disappointed that this flagship phone should start giving error messages such as this, particularly after only 3 weeks of use.  I only hope that this is the last time I see this message!
    At least am tech savvy enough to have been able to circumvent the error, get online, find a solution quickly and sort the problem out - all done in the space of 40mins on the way to work!!   
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Does Sony have any answers as to why this has occurred?
    Hope this all makes sense!!
