I can't start photoshop elements anymore

When I bought my laptop (a packard bell easynote) about a year ago, it included both photoshop elements and premiere elements version 9. I've been using these programs ever since. However, last saturday, suddenly neither of the programs would start. I can't get any further than the start screen and it doesn't show any error messages. Since the programs came with my laptop I don't have a serial number or any software, so I can't reinstall them. Any suggestions as to how I can resolve this issue?

  It’s possible that you have made changes or installed new programs that have caused a conflict. You could try a system restore to an earlier date. But try one more thing.
Hold down the Ctrl+Alt+Shift Keys and right click on the exe file and choose open.
You should get the settings pop-up dialog.
Click yes and wait whilst elements re-builds the preferences.

  • Can't start Photoshop up anymore - HELP!!

    I recently got my new MacBook Pro and installed Adobe creative suite on to it with no problems. I have been using Photoshop/Illustrator/InDesign etc all week with no problems.
    The other day I installed The sims, Champioship Manager, C&C Generals and the software that came with my new mighty mouse. I went to show a friend something in Photoshop and all it keep doing was crashing with the following message "the application photoshop quit unexpectedly". I have tried shutting down the Mac and trying to re-open photoshop again but it just keeps giving me the same message. I even tried reinstalling it (twice!) but when I go to start it up it just keeps doing the same thing!
    I can only presume that one of the games or the Mighty mouse software is interfering with something in Photoshop. I don't know how to uninstall the games and mighty mouse software (there is nothing on the game discs that shows how to uninstall) and the same for the mighty mouse.
    I am completely stumped, it's sooooo frustrating as I really ned to get into photoshop.
    Can anyone suggest anything? I really need your help!!
    Thanks in advance guys

    OK.. I'm not an expert.. but if it happened to me, I'd go into the following folder and remove everything that's related to Adobe.
    From HD ROOT
    Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Adobe*
    Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences > Adobe Systems*
    Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences >
    Under USERS in Home
    Users > username > Library > Application Support > Adobe*
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > com.adobe.photoshop.plist*
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > com.adobe.ami.installer.plist*
    One or all of the following...
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > Adobe Photoshop CS Paths*
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > Adobe Photoshop CS Setting* (folder)
    OR/AND
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > Adobe Photoshop CS2 Paths*
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > Adobe Photoshop CS2 Setting* (folder)
    OR/AND
    Users > username > Library >
    Preferences > Adobe Photoshop CS3 Paths*
    Users > username > Library > Preferences > Adobe Photoshop CS3 Setting* (folder)
    Deleted the all those files, or at least place it in the trash. Before you reinstall!
    Chances are it's not the application that's at fault, but something's being corrupted or misplaced, when you installed the other applications.
    tip:
    If your already using the latest version of MacOSX, you don't need to install the Mighty Mouse software, it's already built into your OS.

  • Can't reload Photoshop elements 7 on my windows 7 operating system. Everything goes well and it appears to be installing. All of the sudden the Installer starts to roll back everything and error message shows up saying I can't use this product at this tim

    can't reload Photoshop elements 7 on my windows 7 operating system. Everything goes well and it appears to be installing. All of the sudden the Installer starts to roll back everything and error message shows up saying I can't use this product at this time.

    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.

  • When I start Photoshop Elements within Aperture 3, my image is flattened.  How can I correct this?

    Just installed Aperture 3 last week. 
    1) I imported all my images from iPhoto.
    2) I downloaded a plug-in for Aperture, "Burn to Disc" and it seems to work well. 
    When I start Photoshop Elements 9 within Aperture 3, my very large file is flattened and of course all layers are gone. 
    How can I open my PSD files in Aperture 3 complete with layers?
    Read the Aperture Manual, checked the discussion groups and remain stumped.  I'd greatly appreciate any help.  Thanks in advance.

    Thank you so much for your reply.  Using Photoshop and saving the files within Aperture was a major reason for getting this software.  But Photoshop without layers is taking the heart out of the beast.   Thanks again for your reply.

  • Error report when trying to start Photoshop Elements 11

    Hello.
    I bought the student version of Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11 recently. Premiere Elements works fine, but since 6 weeks, I keep getting an error report, whenever I want to start Photoshop Elements.
    "Photoshop Elements cannot start or continue because of missing file(s). Please reinstall."
    I tried deinstalling and reinstalling the programme for five times already, but I still get the error report.
    Please, could somebody help me, because I'm getting really desperate now and I don't know what to do.
    Best Regards,
    Sophie Grossalber
    P.S.: I have a laptop, that runs with Windows 7.

    Sophie can you please check your installation logs to see if an error occurs during the installation process.  Please see Troubleshoot install using logs | Elements - http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/troubleshoot-install-using-logs-elements.html for information on how to locate and interpret the installation log files.  You are welcome to post any specific errors which you receive to this discussion.

  • How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer with Windows 8?

    How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on my new computer with Windows 8?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

    If restoring system preferences doesn't work for you, you can try initiatting a chat session with adobe help support http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html.
    You can also try reinstalling the application. After uninstall, please check if the AMT folder has been deleted from your previous install location.i.e. if you are using a windows 64 bit pc, check if the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\AMT has been deleted

  • How many computers can I install Photoshop Elements 12 on?

    How many computers can I install Photoshop Elements 12 on?

    No, if you mean can you copy the installed version over. That never works because PSE is a highly complex program that strews stuff all over your hard drive and you can never hope to find all the bits and bobs. You should deactivate it on the computer you no  longer need, then install from scratch on the new machine.

  • How can I use photoshop Elements 8 to make a DVD to play on a regular TV-DVD? [was:DVD-CD-r]

    How can I use photoshop Elements 8 to make a DVD that will show on a regular TV-DVD set-up

    You can't do this in PSE by itself. I'm assuming you have windows, so output your slideshow as a wmv file and then use Premiere Elements to finalize the disc, if you have that. If not, use whatever you do have (if you can burn DVDs, you have software). Even windows dvd maker will do this.

    It does not seem to interfere with the normal operation of Photoshop Elements, but it is a constant annoyance.

  • CanI install Adobe Photoshop elements 11 on an external drive to get more room for my many pictures?

    Can I install photoshop elements 11 on an external hard drive? I need more space to work on my many pictures and would be using them on my desktop. This operates on Windows 7

    The program and catalog work best on the C drive but you can have your photos on an external hard drive, provided you keep the drive connected to the same USB port when using Elements.
    You can also drag and drop existing photos/folders to the external hard drive - but you need to do this within Organizer not in Windows Explorer.
