I am having a problem using the help menu in Adobe elements 5

I am having a problem using the help menu in Adobe elements number five.
When I open the help menu, the dialogue box defaults to an unreadable display font. Is there any way to change that default font? Using the help menus to find a solution is not possible for I cannot read what it is displaying.

For product, there is an option in preferences where we can set fonts. There are two options: One is application font and other is system font. I am talking about elements 8 which I have but not sure that will solve your problem which is help related.
Hope Help in 5th version is html which opens in Browser? Please confirm.

  • Problems with the help menu.

    Hi. I'm a new iMac user and have had problems using the help menu on my computer. Every time I click on help and search a topic I get a blank untitled window. Nothing ever opens up in the window and then the spinning beach ball comes up. It is only in the blank window and I am still able to use the computer normally. I am unable to close or force quit the program and have to restart to get rid of it. I have called tech support and spent over an hour on the phone with no help and ended up reinstalling the operating system. Still having the same problem. Anyone have some advice or have had a similar problem?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Try reindexing the hard drive via Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Spotlight.
    Drag the hard drive into the Privacy section, and the select it in that section, and select the minus sign in the bottom left corner below the field holding the drive.
    Click then on Spotlight every half hour to wait until the Indexing status no longer shows up.
    If Help still doesn't come up entirely, try clicking on the clear jewel in the upper right corner of the Help menu. It may reveal the search field. If it doesn't, quit from the Help Viewer application menu, and then go to com.apple.helpviewer.plist and delete it. Help should then load normally.
    If it still doesn't, try repairing permissions with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility.
    In the end, if that still doesn't work, let us know, and we might suggest something else.

  • Anyone else having a problem installing the 13.1 update to Elements 13. I keep getting the Error Code:U44M1I210

    Anyone else having a problem installing the 13.1 update to Elements 13. I keep getting the Error Code:U44M1I210

    I don't know what to tell you. I get the same crap. I have been into computers for about 25 years now and it really ticks me off that after all these years these companys can not put out something that works. It seems like they put it out then expect the buyer to fix there screw ups. Why should we have to do there jobs and have to pay for it too?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • When I use the trial version of adobe elements why does it have adobe trial across my work?

    When I use the trial version of adobe elements why does it have adobe trial across my work?

    That is because you are using a trial... buy the program and you do not have a "watermark" on your output

  • Is anybody else having big problems using the new pages?

    Everything has moved and even the help section isn't that helpful. I have been sitting in class for over an hour trying to make a portfolio, but can't because everything is so different. I have no idea how any of the changes are supposed to make it simpler. You can't even save as a word document! Instead there's all this export rubbish. I'm going to fail this class because of the new pages update. I have been putting off this update for weeks but since the newest OS update, everything is automatically updating so I had no choice. Actually make it easier, or make it possible to undo the update.

    It's been 7 months since it came out. Didn't you read the reviews in the App Store? Plus all the forum posts here?

    Use Pages '08/'09 it should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

  • Problems using the healing brush in Photoshop Elements 7

    I follow directions and it works for areas of that size. I can't change the size of brush.   I Alt-Click on good area, but am not sure what dragging over flaw means. I try clicking on bad area to make disappear.  That was  the way my old Adobe Business Edition worked.

    Drag means: click with mouse at one end of flawed area. Keep holding the mouse button down as you move your cursor to the end of the flawed area. Release mouse button.
    You can change the size of the brush in the options bar, or by pressing ] to make it larger and [ to make it smaller.

  • Having extreme problems using the new iMac, adobe CS5 (in particular InDesign) and OSX 10.8.2 (and now also 10.8.3) Mountain Lion

    Is anyone else experiencing the same thing? My computer is 2 months old and has hardly any files stored on it. Also, my
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB and my memory is 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.
    I am only running one thing on the computer as we speak - making a small pattern in InDesign - yet is has been frozen for over 20 mins, and that's not the first time this has happened.
    I updated to the latest Mountain lion this morning (10.8.3) and its exactly the same.
    I dont understand why this is happening, but on the older iMac i could run several windows of the entire creative suite without a problem - i was also using Snow Leopard.
    please help!

  • Is anyone having a problem using the nytimes digital subscription?

    i signed up for the new york times digital subscription on 28 march, then a few days later was told my account was canceled for nonpayment. according to customer service, my account is in good standing. but now when i try to access an article, i'm told i've already used my 20/month and wants me to pay again.
    i cleared the cookies and browsing history; tech support reset my password, but i still can't get access on firefox. no problems with internet explorer.
    any suggestions? thanks

    add me to the list. i have reluctantly concluded that the nytimes digital service is not compatible with firefox. over the past 5 days, i have had daily conversations with the nyt techies, who gave me the same useless advice: clear cookies and browsing history and reset password. i did so, repeatedly, but four passwords and hours of frustration later, the nyt digital service still refuses to recognize me as a home delivery subscriber entitled to total access and instead keeps telling me i have used up my 20 free articles. its techies now tell me that firefox is to blame in some way that they can't explain, and i must use internet explorer to access the nyt site. IE works fine but it is not my browser of choice, and i don't like having it open all day long, given its well known vulnerabilities. i am outraged that the nyt didn't see this problem coming, and is doing nothing to fix it! obviously, they have screwed up in a big way.

    I am having email problems with the new Mountain Lion.  stmp, imap, etc. I have looked up google info and It is confusing when it comes to TS, SSL also, please explain how to set it up so my email goes out and comes in securely.  Help
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - requires SSL:
    imap.gmail.com
    Use SSL: Yes
    Port: 993
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS:

    The Quick Answer
    Follow the instructions below to set up IMAP1 access in most email clients.
    Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain2 name.
    this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS? On the first page of Apple set up there is a TLS certificate and it is marked NONE- should I change it to the long APPLE CERT option?  The next page under ADVANCED: THERE IS A BOX SSL MARKED.  Then IMAP Path Prefix - I put stmp.gmail.com.. is that right?  Port 993 can  use this one? as 456 doesn't work and 587 said it wasn't safe.  Under AUTHENTICATION I used PASSWORD.  Should I have used external client cert TLS?
    Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

    the devices is not popping up in our itunes. is anyone else having this problem. can  you help me if you have the same problem

    Try rebooting the computer and restarting the device.
    Try a different cable.
    In rare cases fluff in the connector port can prevent proper contact with the connectors used to transfer data. An air duster or thin piece of card or plastic can be used to tease out debris if that is the problem.

  • IMovie 11 will not play any of the projects I have created over the past several months.  It will play iMovie events.  Anyone else having this problem?  Please help - Thanks

    Movie 11 will not play any of the projects I have created over the past several months.  It will play iMovie events.  Anyone else having this problem?  Please help - Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion...
    I just got back from the Apple Store for the second visit with the Mac Genius to try to resolve the problem. 
    First visit we trashed the iMovie 11 application and reinstalled iMovie and ran a software update. Upon relaunching we were pleased that all projects and events ran perfectly from both the HD and the Drobo. 
    After lugging my 27" iMac back home and restarting it the same problem appeared.  I returned to the Apple store for a second visit. This time I left the iMac at the store overnight.  The apple service guys were able to duplicate the problem and wiped my hard drive.  There appears to be a bug with iMovie 11 (not confirmed) and an elevated report was submitted to Apple engineers. 
    I am leaving my "old" projects and events on the external drive unless I need to import them.  I am not going to restore from back up and will use a "clean" version of iMovie11.  No guarantees the problem won't come back.  This issue consumed a TON of my time.... hopefully Apple can fix iMove11.

  • Good Morning.  I'm having a problem using both my Photoshop elements and premiere programs.  I've installed the programs, redeemed my code and entered the serial numbers, and created the adobe log-in.  I am able to open up the organizer without problems,

    Good Morning.  I'm having a problem using both my Photoshop elements and premiere programs.  I've installed the programs, redeemed my code and entered the serial numbers, and created the adobe log-in.  I am able to open up the organizer without problems, but when I try to open up the photo editor (either by trying to open up the program from the main menu, or right-clicking on a photo in the organizer to edit in elements), the program asks me to sign in to adobe (which I can do and it doesn't give an an "incorrect password" or log-in ID error) then accept the terms and conditions.  When I click to accept the terms and conditions, nothing happens and the editor fails to open.  Everytime I click on the program, I get this same "loop" of signing in and accepting T&C's, but the program fails to open.  Any advice?

      Premiere Elements 10 is now 64 bit, but not PSE10.
    Take a look at your scratch disk set-up and if you have a spare volume, allocate that first before the C drive. Elements use scratch disks when it gets low on RAM.

    Turn off face recognition and the auto-analyzer to improve performance.
    When editing photos or videos check the task manager to see what background processes may be running and end them temporarily if not needed.
