Force 64 bit Elements 10 to install on Windows 8 64 bit

I have found only one refernece to this issue...and all anybody responded to was "it should this...it should that...."
I mean, hasn't anybody actually tried to install elements 10 on the final windows 8 64 bit yet??
Really? I am the first one....?
Well anyway...I have tried installing straight from the 64 bit folder....NO GO
I tried compatiblity on autorun...NO GO...
I keep getting to "install in X86...blah blah"
I have Premiere/Elements 10 disk. trying to install off of DISC 2.
COMPAQ desktop
AMD 64 X2
Thanks for any ideas!!!

Thanks for fast reply!!
...I'd watch for the next version of Premiere Elements to be fully compatible with it. But it's hard to hold Adobe responsible for an operating system that didn't even exist when the program was developed!
Yeah, I know, but it is just so frustrating to be looking at the 64bit install folder and adobe wont let me do it! It says I have to use the root install so it can make it's own decision of what OS I have.
Instead of doing what most software makers do (If 64 bit OS install 64 bit software)
It's doing:
Is this windows 64 bit? YES. is this windows 7 64 bit? NO. Is this Vista 64 bit? NO. Well then it must be XP 64 bit! No Install for you!
We are just talking about a badly written init file.
And yes I have never written a piece of software in my life and have no idea what I am talking about.
It's just that we are not talking about a compatbility problem that is preventing an install....mislocations of necessary folders, program errors...I am sure of it. We are talking about a simple edit on install that I had hoped would be on the online verision...that I just tried to download and install to no avail. I mean, doest anybody try to install these things like 10 months ago in Adobe and just fix the tiny thing on the "online install" and have it ready by RTM ?
It is just frustrating, if they would at least let me try to install it instead of me waiting months and spending more money for a simple fix.
anyway I understand what you are saying, I shouldn't fault them...
But people will be buying this "64 bit" version of Elements well into windows 8 release and assume they are installing 64 bit software because they chose the 64 bit disc not the 32 bit...
Many people will miss the "X86" on install and that's not right.
I havent had one problem with 64 bit programs defaulting to 32 bit on any of my other dual bit installs from other companies.
Millions of windows 8 have been downloaded....I don't feel so cutting edge with it coming out in a few weeks. I just don't understand how there is no mention of this sneaky issue on this planet with 7 billion people on it, i am not that clever
Oh it's so stupid to be this frustrated on a sunday morning. I'm just venting Steve, sorry!
Still if anybody has any tricks up thier sleaves besides a virtual windows 7 enviroment....or if it is just me and they have installed it fine...let me know!

photoshop elements 11 not installing in windows 7 x32
downloads ok then on install it gets to almost the end and a message appears can not continue and it uninstalls itself.

Hello, thank you for your prompt reply. I have downloaded v12 of Photoshop Elements and installed to my Win 7 x64 machine and its working like a charm. Perhaps v11 did not like the spec of my x32 machine.
Thank you again from a satisfied customer.

Can you list your computer hardware specs.? Special attention needs to be paid to the I/O (Input & Output), or the HDD's (Hard Disk Drives), their size, speed, amount of free-space, etc.Are you attempting to do the installation to the default location, or to a custom location? Good luck, and let us know a bit more please.

I purchased Elements 12 just the other day, it downloaded and now I cannot get it to install with Windows 8. When I try to open it, nothing happens. Please assist. Thanks.

right click the installation file and click "run as administrator".
if that fails do you have bitdefender av?

Elements will not install on windows 8.1 64 bit.

Photoshop Elements won't install on Windows 8 - Error must have IE 4.0 or higher

When I try to install Photoshop Elements 1.0.1 on a Windows 8 64 bit computer, it says I must have IE 4.0 or higher and I have IE 10 installed. How do I get Photoshop Elements 1.0.1 to install.

Microsoft advises that all versions of PSE except versions 1, 3, 5 & 6 will work with Windows 8.

Photoshop Elements won't install on Windows 8

First & foremost, I'm incredibly irritated that my Photoshop Elements 6 won't install on my new Windows 8 laptop. (I did the right thing: uninstalled from the old laptop before wiping the drive to get it ready for resale.) And now, instead of getting true & real support from Adobe, I'm directed to a user Forum. BS! Absolutely UNACCEPTABLE consumer support!!!! I will NEVER AGAIN purchase an Adobe product. Of course, this is no slam against other Adobe users on the Forum - it's just that Adobe needs to take a stronger ownership of its problems - they should NOT let all of us swirl around and find answers to their problems.

Photoshop Elements 6 is ancient software. It may or may not run under Windows 8. I am sure you could have paid for customer technical support for your issue, but it might be that you still would have been told that it was not compatible or that it was a untested combination. Adobe stops giving installation support on older versions after the new version comes out. If you post in the Photoshop Elements forum you may find other users that have or have not been able to install Photoshop Elements 6 on Windows 8. You were actually given great support to visit the forums, since our collection of users have much more experience than many people that work in Adobe Technical Support.

Photoshop Elements 13 not Installing on Windows 8.1 x64

I am trying to install Adobe Photoshop 13 with an Installer package developed using Adobe Creative Cloud. It fails with Windows Installer error 1603. I'm installing this package on a locked down machine, using an Administrative account and the drive is not encrypted. I've noticed during troubleshooting that after the installation failure, if I go to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe' directory, rename the 'OOBE' folder (this folder doesn't exist prior to installation start) and re-run the installer, the installation completes successfully. I've re-created the Creative Cloud package few times without any success. Any help will be appreciated.

You can contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
1. Adobe products for organizations: business, government, education
2. Choose a link if appropriate
3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your invoice/serial number available.

Can Photoshop Elements 10 be installed without discs using the product serial number?

I recently upgraded my Windows 7 system that came with Photoshop Elements and Premier Elements 10 pre-installed to Windows 8. When the installation was complete, the software was gone. The system did not come with the installation discs. I have the product serial numbers because I registered the software. How can I get my software back? Can I download from Adobe using the serial numbers?
Thank you!
Ryan

if you follow all 7 steps, you can dl a trial via one of the links on this page: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-10-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a dl problem, you didn't follow all 7 steps. typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem.

Can you download a 32 bit installer for photoshop elements 12 to install on a 64 bit system (windows 7)

can you download a 32 bit installer for Photoshop elements 12 to install on a 64 bit system (windows 7). Thanks in advance

yes, if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

How can i get elements 10 to install?

i've been having issues for weeks trying to get elements 10 to install. i got it with my intuos 4 tablet, downloaded it, and i have the serials ready to go.
however, everytime i try to install, it stops around 30% into it and says there were errors. exit code 7???
so i look it up online and do the many, many suggestions it says to offer a fix to the problem, but none of them worked. i emailed waccom about the issue, but have yet to recieve a reply yet. figured it might be better to come here and ask. and i did try the adobe support software thing. even that won't install on my computer. wondering if my computer just hates adobe products. anyways, this is what i get when trying to install:

How to Install Elements 5 Without Installing the Flash Player that is On the Photoshop Elements 5 CD

Having just changed the operating system here from Microsoft Windows XP Pro to Microsoft Windows 7 Pro (64 bit), it is desirable to install the Existing Photoshop Elements 5, Without Installing the Flash Player and Adobe Reader programs on the Elements 5 CD. The Elements 5 Setup Wizard does not appear to offer an option to "uncheck" or otherwise prevent the Flash Player and Adobe Reader programs from being installed. It is not desirable to install and then uninstall the unwanted Flash Player and Adobe Reader programs. It is also not desirable to purchase a newer version of Elements at this time.

If you cancel out of the Setup Wizard and then go to Start>Computer and right click on the cd and choose explore, you should be able to go to the folder
that has photoshop elements 5 and run the Installer or Setup.exe and bypass all the other out of date stuff like flash and adobe reader.
Also, after installing pse 5 you'll want to apply the 5.02 patch so pse 5 runs better on windows 7.
(it says for vista, but works on windows 7 x64 as well)

Is it safe to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 after installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12?

Is it safe to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 after installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12? I just upgraded from 10 to 12 and wanted to know if it is safe or if there would be any issues with uninstalling and removing Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.

Yes you can, if you are happy with the way PSE12 is running.
However both apps will happily co-exist, and there is no duplication as both use the same images on your hard drive.
PSE10 also has some features now removed from PSE12 as Adobe transitions towards 64 bit applications. See my PSE12 first look link:

How can I overcome boot problems in Vista 64 when Elements 6 is installed?

New computer, Vista Home Premium (64 bit), won't boot up when Elements 6 is installed. Has to go through the whole start up repair routine, sometimes twice over, before it will boot. Uninstall Elements 6 and it's fine. Used same installation CD as with my previous XP computer which had no problems with it. Any suggestions?

Thank you both for your responses! Unfortunately I realized I hadn't explained myself well enough and my question is still unanswered.
I do know how to set my Preferences in iPhoto to edit in an external editing software like PSE. But I like iPhoto '09 for editing so I don't want to do that.
What I use PSE 6 for is digital scrapbooking. So what I'm trying to do is figure out a way to get to my iPhoto library directly from PSE 6 while I'm working in it on a scrapbook layout.
I thought I could just go to File>Open>Media(Finder sidebar)>Photos>, which then opens my iPhoto library, and then from there choose my photos to bring into PSE. But the "Choose" button remains grayed out when I do this, even though I am in my iPhoto library and can click on photos.
I don't understand why? I've discussed this on message boards at digital scrapbooking websites, and none of the Mac users I've discussed this with, can figure it out either. We keep hoping there is an answer to this frustrating dilemma.
What we all do right now as a work around is choose our photos first from iPhoto and move them to the desktop before we even open PSE. Then we can find them easily. But we want to be able to navigate to iPhoto from within PSE and choose our photos that way. Possible??
Thanks again... Deb

Premiere Elements 8 new install - all menu items grayed out

New install of premiere elements 8. Installed 8.0.1 patch successfully. Installed Quicktime.
SYSTEM
Windows 7 64-bit
Dell Inspiron 660
8 GB RAM
1 TB hard drive, 700 GB available after install
All menu items are greyed out except for File | New, Open, Exit and some Help menu items. Will create a project but then does nothing. Reopening the empty project results in Elements/Pro compatibility message. Unusable.

Thank you ATR. I followed your sequence of checks. RESOLVED BY DISABLING PORTION OF AV FUNCTIONS BEFORE LAUNCHING APPLICATION. Here are the steps.
I had not even tried Premiere Elements Organizer. When I did, it appeared to run fine and actually the AutoAnalyzer Options only appear under its Preferences menu, I later found out. Those options were then disabled with no change to the issue.
I removed and reinstalled the program with an internet connection and McAfee firewall and AV off. And then ran the program with an internet connection. No change.
I deleted the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file first, and then the whole 8.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. No change.
The program was installed in the default c: drive location so no change there.
The problem went away with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled!. I narrowed it down to what McAfee calls "Real-Time Scanning" under "Virus and Spyware Protection." The level of control McAfee LiveSafe-Internet Security affords under "Real-Time Scanning" is not very detailed. The setting that makes the difference is under "Scan These Files" is "Programs and documents only" instead of the default "All files (Recommended)."
Now going back upstream, I enabled the firewall fully. Firewall makes no difference if I shut it off globally or allow individual program exceptions...it still runs fine. I also enabled all the AutoAnalyzer Options and program still runs fine. Perhaps this is a rabbit trail for non-resource-limited systems.
Hopefully this helps others with the same problem.
