How do I resolve a constant rainbow wheel when running Photoshop Elements 10?

Greetings,
After running Photoshop Elements 10 successfully for over two years, for the last couple of months I am continually getting a rainbow wheel whenever I am trying to use my PSE 10 software. It takes forever for the wheel to resolve itself. I even close down all other programs and only have PSE 10 running. The performance is terrible. I am running this program on a Macbook Pro with 4 GB RAM and more than 100 GB free disk space.
Here's what I have done to try and remedy this so far:
1. Had the Apple technical team run diagnostics on my computer to detect any operating system or hardware issues. NONE identified. Also ran Disk Utility and performed a disk cleanup.
2. Spent a day deleting a bunch of files to free up additional disk space. Before: 80 GB. After: 107 GB.
3. Purchased (2) 4GB RAM sticks and had a certified Apple technician replace my current (2) 2GB sticks with these new ones. Now running with 8GB RAM.
With all this, I am STILL getting the rainbow wheel. Has anyone experienced this problem, or does anyone have any suggestions?
Should I uninstall and reinstall the software (Photoshop Elements 10 + Organizer)? If so, will all my categorized photos, along with caption notes, file notes, and tags in the Organizer be lost with the new installation?
Thanks in advance for your help.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
G.R. Smith

Go to your username> library and delete:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements < version > Paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements < version > Settings
com.adobe.Elements Organizer. < version >.plist
com.adobe.ElementsOrganizer< version>.plist
and any lockfiles with the same names, then go to Saved Application States (at the same level as preferences) and delete any for PSE, then repair permissions and launch PSE again.

Constant rainbow wheel and freezing issues

Hello everyone,
I have done a lot of reading online about this issue, and I've called Apple a while back, but the issue has returned.
Firstly, I'm on a MacBook Pro 13" from Mid 2010. It's got 4GB of memory, and 2.4Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. I've still got over 200GB avaliable on the hard drive. I'm also running Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
Basically these are my main issues:
Constant rainbow wheel occurs, probably once every few minutes or less of normal working
Sometimes happens just randomly
Sometimes occurs when I click a new application, new window, spotlight.. basically any clicks
Lasts from a few seconds to much longer, but generally the computer doesn't fully lock up
iTunes music will pause for periods of time, totally just cuts out.. then resumes after a random amount of time
Videos will pause during playback for random amounts of time - both streaming video and downloaded content
Overall slow response time no matter what I'm doing
I have a memory monitor on, and this all occurs when there is still over at least 1.5GB of memory. I've tried resetting the PRam (?) multiple times, and it used to seem to make my computer run more smoothly, but it no longer seems to rectify the issues. I've also went into the Disk Utility and checked permissions and ran the disk repair and everything..
I'm not sure what else to try, so any help would be MUCH appreciated. I'm in university and this constant freezing is not condusive to my learning haha. My computer even froze up once while typing this post!
Thanks so much in advance.

I'm getting the rainbow wheel when I try tp pen in internet page (Safari). The page half loads then appears to freeze with the rianbow wheel. I get the same result when I try to stream a movie from NETFLIX. Freezes up rather than plays (after loading).

I get the rainbow wheel when I try to open an internet page. It loads halfway, then freezes, with the rainbow wheel whirring around. Smae thing happens when I try to stream a movie on Netflix. The movie loads, then the wheel shows up and the screen freezes. Same thing when I try a DVD, it takes the disc, but won't play when I hit on PLAY.
I am repair permissions, and all that I can do, but I am a novice. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I spend big bucks and drive 40 miles to get Apple help.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If your profile info is up to date, you probably have a 2006 or 2007 MacBook with a CoreDuo or Core2Duo.
It probably came with 512MB or 1GB RAM memory and a 60, 80, or 120GB hard drive.
You're still running OS X Tiger, 10.4.
Your DVD drive may be dirty or wearing out.
For specifics about your computer, click on the  Apple Logo in the menu bar, then About This Mac, and More Info... to find details.)
You may be running short of hard disk space. You should have at least 10% free, or 10 to 15GB free for best performance. Less than that, and your hard disk is spending lots of time searching for places to store data.
Complex web pages and sites like Facebook and Twitter, and pages using Adobe Flash, and high-bandwidth applications like video streaming from NetFlix can all cause your computer to run slowly, and the fan to run at high speed, because the processor is working hard. Conversely, email is not terribly resource-intensive, and probably still works pretty well.
Several things can each provide a small performance increase (listed in no particular order):
Adding more RAM memory. Upgrade to 2Gb to give your programs a bit of 'breathing room', especially if you are running more than one program at a time.
Erasing the hard drive and reinstalling the current operating system and programs from scratch. This erases all your existing programs and data. Unless you have backups and program discs, you lose everything currently stored on it.
Installing a higher capacity, faster hard disk, say 250GB or 320GB will give your programs and data more space, and perhaps faster access if you replace the factory 5400rpm drive with a 7200 rpm drive. If your current hard disk is nearly full (less than 10% free space), the drive has to 'thrash' to free space to store information.
Upgrading the operating system to OS X 10.5 Leopard or OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Both are discontinued OS X versions, still available to order directly from Apple, but not likely found on a store shelf any longer. An upgrade to OS X 10.7 Lion might not be possible for your MacBook (details here: http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/), and Lion would likely cause a further slowdown, because honestly, Lion is optimized for newer, faster dual-core or quad-core computers with fast video chipsets and 4GB or more of RAM.
A faster internet connection, for example: I switched internet providers to get a 3.0Mb DSL connection (up from a 512Mb connection) for an extra $10 per month, and saw downloads and internet browsing speeds increase dramatically. With the slower connection, it was not possible to watch video.
Will all of these upgrades together get you close to the performance of the latest MacBook Air or MacBook Pros? NO!
Ultimately, you have a 4- or 5-year-old computer, and spending up to several hundred dollars for upgrades might not be a worthwhile investment for you, versus applying that much money toward the cost of a new(er) Mac, and perhaps passing your MacBook on to a friend, child, or grandchild who needs mainly email capability.
If a brand new Apple is not in the budget, consider a refurbished Mac from the Apple Store online. These are reliable computers from 'last year's models' and have the same 1-year Applecare warranty as a brand new model, and often sell at a discount of 10 to 30 percent of the price when the model was introduced.
I'm using a mid-2007 MacBook, purchased as a refurb from Apple in late 2007. It came with 1GB RAM, a 120GB 5400 rpm hard drive, and OS X 10.4 Tiger. Over the years, I've upgraded it twice. Firs to 2GB, then to 4GB RAM, to a 320GB drive, then to a 500GB 7200 rpm hard drive, and to OS X 10.5 Leopard, and then to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Rather than one more round of upgrades to OS X 10.7 Lion, I'm saving for a newer MacBook Pro or MacBook Air at some time in the future.

How do I resolve "error processing your request" when using the download link in My Orders for photoshop 5

As Jeff already hinted at, try a different browser. Such issues almost always are local problems on your end. Something is either changing or blocking the HTTP headers used for forwarding (could be your router, a desktop firewall or other security tools) or a JavaScript is not running/ being blocked.

How can I put captions in a pdf slideshow in Photoshop Elements 13?

Tags are independent of PDF page content. Removing/deleting a page or page(s) does not remove anything in the PDF's structure tree.
As Full Check is looking at the structure tree the report reflects what is present there.
In the Tags panel walk the structure tree to locate the Table tags. Delete these.

Welcome to the forum.
I wonder, however, if you meant to post to the Photoshop Elements Forum, and not to the Premiere Elements (Video editing program) Forum?
If you want PSE, then see the above link.
To Save_As uncompressed, you might want to look at PNG for the format.
Good luck,

If you set PSE as external editor, be sure you pick the right file, which is not by any means the logical choice. You want this one:
You can also export the photos from iphoto, edit them and save them under new names and reimport the edited photos as new files. This is more trouble, but lets you save as many different versions of your image as you like (iphoto only remembers the last edited version + original).

How can I process raw files from lumix GH4 on photoshop elements 12?

How can I process raw files from lumix GH4 on photoshop elements 12?

Your files should open in photoshop elements 12, since there is only one version of camera raw 8.5
(RC means a release candidate of 8.5, which came before the final version of camera raw 8.5 and was for testing)
In the pse 12 editor if you go to File>Open and select one of the lumix GH4 and then press Open, what happens?
In the pse 12 editor, if you go to Photoshop Elements>About Plug-in and click on the words Camera Raw, what version does it say?

2012 13" MacBook Pro constant rainbow wheel and heating after upgrade to Yosemite. Link Davis can you please have a look?

Hey guys, I've been trying to save my mac from this constant lag for the past few days to no avail. I've been reading the forums and trying to figure this out myself but I haven't been able to reach a solution so here I am. I've done a clean reinstall. I've run disk permissions and repaired the disk. I've reset PRAM. I don't have FileVault running. I am constantly getting rainbow wheel, even as I'm typing this question out. Applications freeze in their own windows, for example, Chrome will freeze but I will still be able to move over to another application like safari and use safari. It's practically impossible to run any kind media because it stutters constantly. Any and all help is welcome, thanks in advance.
Problem description:
Mid 2012 13” Macbook Pro slowed to a crawl after update to Yosemite. I currently have 10.10.1 running. I have tried a clean install, I’ve resetted PRAM, I’ve run disk permission verification and repair. None have helped. I constantly get rainbow wheel and all sorts of media stutters.
Below are my EtreCheck results. Any and all help is welcome, thanks in advance guys.

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
It's been a few days since my last post, i've tried uninstalling chrome and adobe flash but my mac is the same. My problems have actually grown. Now my mac is heating up even when the lid is down and the computer is sleeping. The battery has also begun to drain very quickly. Any suggestions? solutions? Below is my current etrecheck result, the one above was when this first started.

Rainbow wheel when scrolling a web page

Strangely every '''second time''' that I want scrolling a web page, the arrow become unresponsive for few second and the rainbow wheel appear sometime for more the 1 mn !
This happen mostly on Google web page.
I clear already firefox cache but it didn't help.
iMac 3.06GHz IC2D OS X 10.6.8 / Firefox 8.0.1

Yes, that's what I did in the first place.
Instead of MOUSE_UP I used KEY_DOWN and the results came both: the stage and the HTMLLoader. That's why I'm confused. I'm pretty sure the results are same if I use MOUSE_UP too, isn't it?
And my question is, where is the focus when scrolling a web page loaded with HTMLLoader WITH ARROW KEYS. Not using a mouse, and I don't know how to scroll with a mouse.

How do i resolve an issue where i have run out of application memory?

My imac says i have run out of application memory and that i should quit applications. How do i resolve this issue?

The message has nothing to do with low disk space.
There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
Not enough memory for your usage pattern
Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
These instructions are for OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks.") The procedure may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
"Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.
