I can't get Photoshop (Elements 12) to run on my (new) Windows 8 computer?

Just what I said above.  I bought Photoshop in December (2013) and now I can't work with it and I'm really frustrated.

There is no way to "download the phone OS".  It's stored in ROM, and when a Hard Reset occurs, the device is wiped and the OS is reloaded from ROM.
Since you have an AT&T Centro, there are no OS updates to install either.

  • Can't get Photoshop Elements 12 to begin installing on my Windows 7 laptop - got software through Wacom?

    Hey guys, bear with me here because I am the opposite of tech-savvy and I'm getting really frustrated. I can't find answers anywhere and nobody in my family has been able to help.
    I recently bought an IntuosPro drawing tablet from Wacom - it came with the option to download a few different programs, including Photoshop Elements 12. I downloaded it through Chrome onto my (brand new) laptop, which has Windows 7 as the operating system. When it was done downloading, I got a zip file. (I'm literally going to list just about everything in the stupid thing) I opened it, and there were two files inside - "PhotoshopElements_12_All.7z" and "PhotoshopElements_12_All.exe". Double-clicking the second one gives me a pop-up saying "The file archive part of Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 is missing. You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. Please download all parts." (Which made me download the whole thing again, only to get the same response and waste my second download - you can only download it twice off of Wacom.)
    Opening the other file gives me two more folders - "PSE 12" and "ReadMe". Nothing in the ReadMe folder works. In the other folder there are 3 folders at the top ("ElementsOrganizer" "ElementsSTIInstaller" and "SupportFiles") then Data.cab files numbered 1-19, "Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.msi" (which takes me to the installation wizard thing but tells me there's an error "Please install/uninstall the product using Setup.exe in the root folder" (I don't know which one is the root folder but none of the .exe's I've found have worked) - all the .msi things do this.) then "ols_config.xml", "ols_config_education.xml", "Setup.ini", "lang.dat" a bunch of .mst files, and at the bottom, "Setup.exe"
    When I click on Setup.exe, I see a flash of a little loading screen window, then it jumps to the "Do you want to allow this program to make changes to this computer?" or whatever pop up, I click yes, nothing happens. Pretty sure that's the place where something is supposed to happen, because the first response I've gotten from everyone in my family is to "click on the .exe file"
    Am I missing stuff? Am I just really stupid and need to do *fill in the blank*? Is it a problem with Wacom? My computer?
    Please just tell me how to make it work.
    Thank you in advance.

    How do I do that? I'm the only user on the laptop - I kind of assumed I already was running the install as the admin.

  • Will my existing Photoshop Elements 8 install & run on my new Windows 7 Pro/32 bit?

    For several years I have been  running Photoshop Elements 8 on my XP  Pro/32 bit system.  I recently purchased a new PC with Windows 7 Pro/32 bit.  Can I successfully install & run this software on my new PC?

    It may, it may not. Officially anything before PSE 9 is not tested or certified on Win 7. It may work with the usual precautions like turning off UAC and other security stuff, running as admin and possibly compatibility modes, but there's no guarantees. You should generally expect that there will be issues one way or another, even if only minor annoyances...

  • Can I get Photoshop Elements 6 to run on Mac OSX Mavericks?

    First of all, do you know if PSE 6 is even compatible to run on Mavericks?
    But secondly, if it isn't, is there any way it CAN be run?
    I have an installation disk, but I keep getting error messages saying "required resources are missing", I never had it installed on the machine before so I can't uninstall any previous files.
    I have a Macbook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2012, Software: OS X 10.9 (13A603)
    Thanks!

  • Can't get Photoshop Elements 11 to install. Adobe Installer message: Installer failed to initialize.

    Can't get Photoshop Elements 11 to install.
    ... Adobe Installer message: Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.   
    ... Adobe Support Advisor message "Inspection could not identify any issues. Please contact Adobe Support for further assistance. http://www.adobe.com/support."
    ... .... So far I have downloaded twice, to two different folders (Desktop and my default download folder). Neither option has worked.  Please help!  I'd like to download Premiere Elements 11, but with this kind of installation problem on PSE11, it seems a second program may be as much of a problem to try to install.

    As Mylenium has stated all we have is a very general error message at this point so it is impossible to advise you until we have additional details.  Please review your installation logs by following the steps listed in Troubleshoot install using logs | Elements - http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/troubleshoot-install-using-logs-elements.html.

  • How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

    How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

    The D3200 requires at least ACR 7.1, which isn't compatible with any version of PSE prior to PSE 11, so no, you can't do this directly in PSE 9.
    You could upgrade PSE, use the Nikon software to convert the files and then open the resulting images into PSE for further editing, or download the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of PSE can understand.

  • Can I buy Photoshop Elements 13 and use it on my home computer and my Surface Pro 3?

    Can I buy Photoshop Elements 13 and use it on my home computer and my Surface Pro 3?
    Also why is there no customer service phone number associated with Adobe Photoshop? It makes me hesitant to purchase from a company that refuses to offer support. I guess I'm asking a question on a forum and the company directed me to.??

    Yes, you're permitted to activate the software on a maximum of two computers at the same time.

  • How can I get Photoshop Elements to import photos that it wrongly indicates are wrong or in catalog?

    Had 17,000 photos on harddrive before installing Photoshop Elements 11 today. Had them well organized in a number of folders under My Pictures. PS found and imported only 467 photos. I tried Search, Browse, and import Files; was able to highlight folders and individual photo files. When I clicked Get Media, it processed for 20 seconds and came back with message that "Files are not in correct format or are already in the catalog." In fact, they are in the correct format (jpg - able to easily view with other programs) and they are NOT visible in the catalog. I went into Control Panel and enabled the Watch service, listed all of the files that PS had not imported from, and still cannot show more than 467 of my photos. Very frustrating, any suggestions? Running Win 7 on 6-months old Sony that plays Blue-Ray, with 8 GB RAM and quad core Intel processors.

    This forum is amazing - thanks to all who responded over the weekend. For future users, some replies I found helpful: 1. allow a lot of time for the cataloging process. I had not realized it would be such a slow and incremental process but a day later it is continuing to add to the catalog - am now up to a couple thousand in the catalog, 2. turning off Organize and Stack visually-similar, and the corrective functions during the initial process speeds things up, 3. go into Control Panel, Administrative, Services and activate the Photoshop Elements watch function as soon as you install Elements, 4. it was helpful to repair/optimize, and 5. if you realize it is really messed up, uninstalling Elements and re-installing may work better than lots of little tweaks and fixes. Now if I can just figure out how to get photos ordered by actual date taken rather than random future dates that my camera or previous version of Elements 8 apparently assigned....

  • How can I get Photoshop Elements 7 for Mac? (Have a license key for Windows from before)

    Hi,
    I have an installation CD for Photoshop Elements that I used on my old PC. I was satisfied and content with that product and as I got a new computer I wanted to use the program there. Here's to my problem:
    I don't have a disk drive on the new computer and can therefore not install the program from disk. Second problem is that when I go online to find the program to download instead I realize that there's no version 7 for Mac, only for Windows if I understand it correctly?
    I don't feel that I want to buy a new version just to get it working on my computer and I'll use iPhoto if it doesn't work to install. It would however be really nice if I would be able to use it.
    Cheers

    There never was a photoshop elements version 7 for mac os, only for windows.

  • Can't get photoshop elements to open

    I have used photoshop many times on this computer and have never had a problem until now.  I tried to open it on my computer and I double clicked on the icon as well as went to "start" "programs" to get it to open and it won't do anything.  When I ran the troubleshooter it said that it was an incompatible application.  I have Photoshop Elements 6 and Windows Vista.  As mentioned I have opened this many many times before without problems.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi,
    In addition to what suggested above here are some more which you can try:
    Solution 1:
    In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 2: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 3:
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.

  • How can I get Photoshop Elements 13 to start up in Expert Mode?

    I just upgraded to Photoshop Elements 13 for Windows (I was using Photoshop Elements 12 for Windows), and I can't get it to start up in Expert mode. When I exit in Expert mode and restart, it starts in Expert mode and then after a few seconds it reverts to Quick mode.
    Note that I have tried the recommendation from previous versions of "Reset preferences on next launch" and that didn't help.
    I'm running 64-bit Windows 8.1 and Photoshop Elements version 13.0 (20140831.m.62014) x64, and I've set it to start in the image editor, not in the launch window.
    Thanks for your help.

    Can you try renaming the %APPDATA%\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\13.0 folder and see if it helps.
