Help with installing elements 12

I downloaded photoshop elements 12. Have folder on desktop called Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.  Inside is PSE12>ElementsSTIInstaller>Set-up.exe.  Clicking that file initiates an installation, but apparently not the actual photoshop elements install.  I have no idea where to go next. Some advice, please. I'm computer literate, but have no idea what this is.

I'm all set. Got help from online chat rep. Essentially, I was using the wrong darn installation file.  Gotta click the correct exe!

  • Help with installing elements 9

    Hello,
    I was gifts elements 9 a while back. As I was travelling I only now have a computer to install it onto. Imac OSX 10.8.5. When I insert the Mac OS disk it whirls away but nothing comes up, when I insert the windows disk I get all the installing information but obviously it isn't compatible. I have since tried to download it online as I still have the serial number but can not find the correct version.
    What do I do?? I should still be able to get this product and surely it shouldn't be this hard to obtain. Am I missing a basic step?
    Thanks for any advice....

    Rjv2870 you can download the Photoshop and Premiere Elements 9 installation files from http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-direct-download-links.h tml.  Please make sure to complete the Very Important Instructions section prior to scrolling down the page and clicking on the download links.

  • Installing Elements 11 on Mac. Need help with install error "Setup wants to make changes."

    Installing Elements 11 on Mac 10.8.2. Need help with install error:  Setup wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this."  After entering Adobe password, nothing happens.  Locked from further installation.  Any ideas?  Adobe phone support could not help.

    Just before letting changes (installation in this case) be made on the system, Mac OS prompts for password & this has to be the Mac system password. This password prompt is the system's own native prompt & would accept the system password only. Please make sure it is the right system password (all/admin rights) and the installaion should run.

  • Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.

    Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.  Does Elements need to have access to ‘My Pictures’ on Windows as when I remove Photos from ‘My Pictures’, Elements later, when backing up, gives a message that it is unable to ‘reconnect’ to the same picture on elements.  On other occasions when removing a photo from Elements catalogue I also get a similar message when backing up saying ‘unable to reconnect’.  1. Is there a relationship between Elements and My Pictures and is Elements dependant on    the Windows ‘My Pictures’? 2. Why does some photos in Elements in some cases cause them to multiply e.g. double; triple; quadruple; and on occasions even more?  Is there something I need to do to stop this or an easy way I can remove the multiples without spending hours doing it manually one by one?  Am I doing something wrong? My O/S is Windows XP SP2 and windows Vista on my Laptop.  I have been using Elements 5 and have just purchased Photoshop Elements 8.0. (Upgrade) and about to install it. Be grateful for any advice as I do enjoy using the program if only I can resolve this issue.  I am not a PC wiz and mainly use Elements to catalogue photos from which I compile collections and from them slide shows with music.  Any advice appreciated Sonny.t PS Have tried to post this previously but without success so hoping to see message appear and a +response

    The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.

  • Help with PS Elements?

    Says my redemption code does not exist. It does. I've entered it 11 times!!!!!! I'm trying to get a serial number for Photoshop Elements.

    Hi,
    Sincerely appreciate your help.  Running Windows 7 on a  Dell XPS420.  System has been very stable for years.  Before purchasing the Epson r2000, I owned an r1800 which was an excellent printer but after seven years started to exhibit paper feed problems.  The r1800 worked with all applications and I was well satisfied with the saturation, contrast, etc. printing mostly 8x10 and 11x17 prints. 
    Thank you for the information about the # of installs for PS E11, will try uninstall/reinstall this morning.
    Will let you know how things go.

  • Help with installing 10.6.3

    Hello, I'm looking for a bit of help with installing Mac OS X 10.6.3 without screwing up.
    I currently have a Macbook with 10.6.3 on it, and I want to COMPLETELY reset my Mac. I want to have a pretty much brand new Mac with 10.6.3, which I have the disk for. I actually just updated from 10.5.8, hoping that it would erase my hard drive and re-install, but it didn't. So I would like help with how to completely reset my Mac, and re-install 10.6.3.
    Thanks in advance!
    ~Dan

    Use that disk, but after booting from it and before running the install, choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu and erase the drive.

    help with installing 2 os on one hd

    RedMoose:
    Congratulations on installing an upgraded HDD into your PowerBook.
    I am not sure exactly what happened in the formatting process, but here are some directions that should help:
    Formatting, Partitioning Zeroing a Hard Disk Drive
    Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
    Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
    Select language
    Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
    Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
    Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
    (Note: 1 partition is normally better for an internal HDD. External HDDs usually have more than one. See Dr. Smoke’s FAQ Backup and Recovery for tips on partitioning external HDD.)
    Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
    Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
    Select Erase tab
    Optional: (Select the sub-volume under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
    Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format are correct.
    Select on Security Options button (Tiger) Options button (Panther & earlier).
    Select Zero all data. (This process will map out bad blocks on your HDD. However, it could take several hours. If you want a quicker method, don't go to Security Options and just click the Erase button.)
    Click OK.
    Click Erase button
    Quit Disk Utility.
    Open installer and begin installation process.
    Please post back with further questions, comments or an update.
    Good luck.

  • Help with Photoshop Elements 9 Organizer

    I need some help with my new Photoshop Elements 9 Organizer.
    I have not had previous versions of Photoshop, this was a brand new installation.  I had previously used Kodak software which came with my camera to organize and edit pictures.
    My PC is approximately 6 years old.  I have a 2.2 ghz processor and 1.5 GB of RAM.  I am running Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.
    The software seemed to install just fine.  I then imported some pictures from my Kodak folders into the Photoshop Organizer.  After importing pictures I then received the following error message:
    'Elements 9 Organizer has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.'
    If I remove the pictures from the catalog, I no longer get the error message.  As soon as I import any pictures, however, I get the error and the software closes.  When I reopen the organizer I get the same error after after about 15 seconds
    I have tried the following:
    uninstalled an re-installed twice
    turned off the automatic backup to photoshop.com
    I did come across thread 769749 (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/769749) that offered some advice.  Based on that, I optimized my catalog (which was empty), repaired my catalog (which was empty).  I also created a new catalog and removed the existing (empty) catalog.
    All of these efforts have not worked.  Each time I try something, as soon as I import any pictures into the catalog, I get 'Elements 9 Organizer has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.'
    This is brand new software that I am unable to use.
    Adobe, please help.

    Answers to following queries would help-
    * Are you able to import images into Organizer from folder other than your Kodak folders?
    * Is your problem happening for importing from a specific set of folders only?
    * Is your problematic folder having any video files in it which you are importing into Organizer?

  • Help with Installing flash error- metafile cannot be loaded

    I read the forum on this but it ended last year and there was no response to some recent questions on this and the direct email to the Adobe rep. on there got no response.
    I am having this problem with installing Flash- it gets about 30% of the way and then a message comes up that says the metafile cannot be loaded.
    I am running 10.7.5 on Mac, all browser software is current. I use both Safari and Chrome. After it said Flash was out of date I tried to update but got the metafile error. So I uninstalled Flash to install it fresh but the same error came up. I tried everything recommended from the forum. I also did all the steps from the help list direct from Adobe ( deleting Flash files, folders, rebooting, etc.) The offline link Adobe provides says the "file cannot be found" so I can't download that either. So I tried the online link download, but even after doing all the steps in order etc. I still get the error when I try to install it.
    I have no firewall and have no virus software running. I also tried the direct offline links that others have provided from 2013, (unfortunately they are old)  in both clicking on them and also downloading by right click but they are dead links and even  the download for it has no content.
    Any help that is more recent than last year? If this is in the wrong place, apologies. New to the forum.

    I tried all solutions but one posted in adobe support. I am local administrator but IE security settings are set by group policies and buttons in tools security setting are grayed out.
    After three days with "The ActiveX control for Flash Player could not be registered" message I tried registering the activeX control manually.
    Bingo! that made the trick.
    So open a DOS window, type "regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10d.ocx" -first check if this directory exists and contains the Flash10d.ocx (no quotes needed) and you should receive a confirmation that it registered correctly.
    I must say that I've tried so many ways that I cannot repeat the correct order before this has worked ;-(
    Hope it works for you all
