How do I stop Photoshop elements 13 from crashing?

I just installed elements 13 and it upgraded my catalog just fine.  Once I was in I started tagging pictures and then I paused.  It crashed.
Now whenever I pause for about 30 seconds it crashes.
I have looked at many articles and have not found anything that worked.  Can someone help me?

To answer your question directly [ How do I stop Photoshop elements 13 from crashing? ] , the only way I can think of is to reset your preferences file.  The method in PSE13 must be the same as in 10 and 11 and it is as shown in this thread:
<can't get pse10 to take my styles, have had pse 10 since 2011 bought pse13 and installed, uninstalled pse10 inorder to get pse13 to install easer, I reinstalled pse10 but now the stules I have do not appear in the effect section. I have checked BOTh secti>
Read post # 3 and see if it works in PSE13.
Good luck and post back whether or not it worked.

  • How do I stop Photoshop Elements 12 from adding a caption to my image?

    How do I stop Photoshop Elements 12 Editor from adding a caption to my image?  It is automatically adding the name of my camera (as a caption) to the file any time I make a change in the Editor.  Then I have to manually delete them.

    That's not Elements which writes the Camera model in the exif, that's your camera. It's a common complaint with Olympus.
    Solution (edited)
    Use the 'Find' menu to select the files starting with the offending caption (Olympus, for instance). Highlight all selected files and right click; select the option to add a caption; leave the caption blank and click enter; you'll be prompted if you want to delete the captions : you do.

    How do I transfer Photoshop Elements 10 from old computer to new laptop?

    You need to installed it in the same way as you did on old machine.
    If you like to save one instance of the license then please do de-activate while uninstalling.
    Or if you have already used your "Two" instances of installation then you must need to de-activate one of the machine while
    uninstalling so it will release the instance for new installation.

  • Preferences stopping Photoshop Elements Editor from opening

    I have Photoshop Elements 5.0 (with the 5.0.2 update installed) on Windows 7 and for a while I couldn't get it to open, I'd click on the shortcut and the start-up window thing would open (the thing with the patents and 'registered to...' etc), but it would always stop responding when it got to "Scanning for presets". I found the solution to this problem on another thread, which was to delete the preferences file from the Photoshop folders. After doing this I can open the Editor again and it works perfectly right up until I stop working, then the next time I try to open the Editor I get the same problem, which can again be temporarily fixed by deleting the preferences file- so basially I know the problem is with the preferences.
    I know I could just delete the preferences file every time I wanted to use Photoshop and it would only be a minor irritance but ideally I'd like to fix it properly. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Try running the compatibility tool. Choose Find & Fix problems under the Troubleshooting Heading via the control panel or see tutorial.

  • How do I deactivate Photoshop Elements 9 from a dead computer?

    Hello,
    I recently got a new computer to replace my old one which stopped working. I had Photoshop Elements 9 installed on the old computer and used it often, so I installed it on my new computer. However, it told me that the serial number had been used for 2 computers already (my old computer and my dad's computer) and that I needed to deactivate the old one before I can activate this one. This is impossible because the old computer can't be used anymore.
    Is there some way the serial number on my old computer could be deactivated online?
    Many thanks,
    -Mike

    Hello, I have a problem with Activation. My computer was broken and I had my Photoshop Elements 9 installed in it. Now I want to activate my PSP ELements 9 on new computer.  It says "Activation limit reached for Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. " And it wants me to deactivate my PSP ELements on the broken computer or a new serial number. As far as I cannot deactivate it on the broken computer, I am writing you to ask for help. I am not the US, I am Slovak. What can I do to use my PSP ELements 9 now ??? 
    Thanks so much for your help in advance.

  • Has anyone found any info on stopping Photoshop & DreamWeaver CC from crashing?

    Aodobe thinks the issue is that my DELL 620 i5 with 6GB RAM 2 TB drive 500GB scratch disk and Windows 7 64bit is the problem. However, since the system is just over a yr old I do not want toreplace it just to make the CC products run.So does anyone have any input or advice to keep Ps and Dw from crashing?
    Note the CS6 editions ar3e working fine.
    Is it possible to go back to the CS6 editions if youve created PSDs in CC? Is there support for Camera Raw 8.1 in CS6?
    HTML, CSS and DWT files created in DreamWeaver CC. Will these files open and work correctly in DreamWeaver CS6?
    In order to use PS CC and Dw CC it sounds like I need to get a Windows 8 PC and laptop because CC will not run without problems on either my PC or laptop. I'm just a poor photograpgh so do not have the funds to replace hardware that's only a little over a year old. Is anyone else finding the CC product line "crashy"?

    I seem to have found the solution to Photoshop crashing (for me, at least). This answer fixed the problem with CC crashing on open:

  • How do I move photoshop elements 9 from an old mac to a new mac?

    I recently got a Macbook Air and I'm trying to move PSE from my old mac to this one. When I try to just move it from my external hard drive, I get error 6. Elements came with my bamboo tablet purchase, and I am like 98% sure I don't have a serial number. Am I royally screwed?

    Moving Adobe applications between machines seldom has positive results.  You need to install using installation files - you can download them from Adobe.  You should check your Adobe account online to see if you ever registered the software.  If you did then your serial number might be available there.  If you find it then you can use it to activate a downloaded installation.
