I have windows xp and photoshop elements 6.

I am having problems with cropping. Program won't switch from 5x7 to 7x5 or vice versa. Can I install the disk over the present program or should I uninstall and then reinstall from the disk?
Thanks

Try the following:
On the crop tool's option bar, top left, there is an arrow or icon (depends on version).
Click on that, and reset the tool.
Now, see if it works.
If it does not, suggest that you delete preferences:
Preference settings control how Photoshop Elements displays images, cursors, and transparencies, saves files, uses plug‑ins and scratch disks, and so on. If the application exhibits unexpected behavior, the preferences file may be damaged. You can restore all preferences to their defaults.
Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift immediately after Photoshop Elements begins launching. Click Yes to delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements settings file. 
A new preferences file is created the next time you start Photoshop Elements. For information on a specific preference option, search for the preference name in Help.

    You cannot move or copy software between computers. You must reinstall. You will need the serial number. Check your account details on Adobe's site if you registered.

  • Windows XP and Photoshop Elements

    I want to re-download Photoshop Elements due to a computer hard drive crash.  My computer runs XP.  I see that he versions available require Windows 7 min.  Is there any way that I can use XP.  I cannot upgrade to Windows 7?   Can I get the older verison of Adobe Photoshop elements.  I believe  I purchased in in 2007.   Thank you

    If you know which older version that is you can likely download the trial version from its link below and use your serial number to activate it....
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

  • Windows 8 and Photoshop Elements

    I need to uninstall Photoshop Elements before I can install Windows 8.
    Will I be able to re-install from Adobe on the web?
    How do i find any serial numbers or other such security stuff so they know i already own it.?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can download pse9 trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-direct-download-links.h tml
    activate with your serial number.
    if you have a dl problem, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  re-read and re-try.
    p.s.  you'll probably need to install and run in compatibility mode (xp sp3).

  • Windows 8 and Photoshop Elements 9

    I purchased and downloaded Photoshop Elements 9 on my Windows XP computer.  I had to purchase a new computer with Windows 8.  I want to redownload Photoshop.  I go through all the steps (including contacting Customer Service FIVE times) and download the Akamai download manager (it take 3-4 hours).  Once it is completed, it disappears and Photoshop does not download.   I looked everywhere for it thnking I was missing something but nothing.  Is Akamai even compatiable with 8?  Or, in the alternative, where do I find Photoshop download or.......do I just throw the entire thing out the window.  Thanks.

  • I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

    You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:
    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
    You then need to watch this video to get hang of it:

  • I have an old Kodak Photo CD and Photoshop Elements 11 on Windows 7. How can I open the .pcd images?

    I have an old Kodak Photo CD (1999) and Photoshop Elements 11 on Windows 7. How can I open the .pcd images?
    Please help me open these photos. They are very important to me and I need to access them.
    If I can't do it with any of the software installed on my computer, would someone be willing to open them, save them as jpgs and send them to me?
    Thank you so much, Nancy

    You can get the plugin here by downloading the Extra Content for Photoshop CS3  File 2
    Just be sure to follow Note:Very Important Instructions or the link won't work.
    http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    After downloading the PHSPCS3_Cont_WWE.exe, double click on it to extract the contents, probably to your desktop.
    Then in the Goodies folder, Optional Plugins folder, you'll see the Kodak PhotoCD folder
    Open that and copy the Photo CD.8BI to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\Plug-Ins
    Copy the profiles to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Color\Profiles

  • Windows 8.1, Photoshop Elements 11, Raw 7.4.0.137 and it will not let me open .CR2 from canon 70D

    Can someone point me to what I need to do in order to open "raw" images from Canon 70D, in .CR2 format? 
    I'm on Windows 8.1,
    Photoshop elements 11
    Raw plugin of 7.4.0137
    thanks

    Hi,
    The 70D requires camera raw 8.2 which is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 11 - you have the last for version 11.
    You can either
    1) Buy the latest version of Photoshop Elements
    2) Use the free Adobe DNG converter to take the CR2 files and converts them to DNG files. The DNG files can then be processed by Photoshop Elements 11
