I purchased two downloads Photoshop Elements12 & Premier Elements12. I cant open programs, help!

First off, Im new to WIndows 8.1 which is the OS on my new laptop. I purchased these two downloads and I'm not able to open either one. Its shows in my Download File, when I try to open one it asks "How do you want to open this file?" None of the programs listed make sense to open with, but I tried anyway with all the programs listed and of course, it doesn't work. I figured I could download and get started right away but now such luck. What am I missing, or doing wrong?

what file (name and extension) are you trying to open?

  • Purchasing and downloading photoshop cs5 education help.

    I am looking to purchase and download photoshop cs5 education version direct from adobe australia. However i would like to know if once i have downloaded whether i am able to install it on both my computers imac and macbook pro? Or am i limited to the activation code only working once?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers Julian

    THis is a User to User forum. For direct answers from Adobe, call Adobe Customer service.
    However, the US EULA allows for 2 installs of the software. I do not know if the Australian EULA is differnt.

  • I have a new computer and I am trying to find a link to download photoshop elements premier 11 the link I was sent by the tech only shows what I need...what I need is an actual download button

    I have a new computer and I am trying to find a link to download photoshop elements premier 11 the link I was sent by the tech only shows what I need...what I need is an actual download button

    This is actually the Photoshop forum. Premiere Elements forum is here
    Premiere Elements
    I assume you realise that 11 is not the current version, which is now up to 12
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=premiere_elements&loc=us
    And if yes, that you had 11 installed on your last computer?   Did that come on a disk or download?  If disk, have you now lost that disk?
    If yes, and you registered your software, log on to your Adobe account, and find My Orders (or similar).  You may find the download link and your serial number there.

    Why? That is the Cloud version of Photoshop - nothing to do with Elements 12. There is no serial number for Photoshop CC.
    Please confirm: are you trying to download Photoshop Elements 12? or Photoshop CC?

    I just purchased and downloaded snow leopard and now I cant access my parallels 3.0 application.  What do I do now so I can get back into my windows

    I just purchased and downloaded snow leopard
    Uh…no, you didn't. Snow Leopard is not available as a download, and never has been. So that means you're running Lion, in which case Parallels 3 definitely won't be compatible with it. You need to check what you're really running and use that information to post in the correct forum, as well as provide the necessary information about it.

    How can I check if my CS6 Photoshop is activated if I cant access PS Help?

    Why do you need to check it if you can't access it?  If it is because you need to have it deactivated then contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.
    For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

    Hi,
    /Users/sarahschadek/Desktop/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
    Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
    Restart your Mac.
    That's why you see this:
    When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
    After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click:  Software Update ...

  • After I downloaded a apps called vipboxsports, I cant open safari

    After I downloaded a apps called vipboxsports, I cant open safari.

    Since it affects Safari, it may be installed in any of the Library folders listed below. It's probably more of a brower enhancer than an actual application.
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    /Library/Input Methods/
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/ScriptingAdditions
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Input Methods/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
    The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.
    The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.

  • Downloaded photoshop Windows and now need Mac format - please help

    Hi wondering if someone can help me. I recently downloaded Photoshop for Windows and now have switched to a Mac. Is there anyway I can switch my product registration or download over from a windows to a Mac format? and is there a cost involved, or do I need to start again?
    Thanks in anticipation!
    Cate

    There are separate, dedicated license numbers for Macintosh and Windows. 
    You need to get on the phone to call Adobe Customer Service and request a "crossgrade", which involves a letter of destruction of the Windows version.  There's a "nominal" charge.

  • I have photoshop elements 5 and i cant open NEF files help

    i am new to editing i set my camera on raw and now photoshope elements will not let me open the pic says wrong file how do i open them now.
    thank you

    Instructions:
    Delete or move the existing Camera Raw 8bi file (see below) from the File Formats Folder.
    Click and download the plug-in from the above link (R_Kellys link says for PSE6 but will definitely work with PSE5 also)
    Open the zip folder you just downloaded and click Extract Files.
    You should see the plug-in file you need. The plug in has a file name: Camera Raw.8bi
    Now drag the plug-in file (or copy it) into the File Formats folder in the following location:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats
    If you are using a 64-bit edition of Windows, move and install the plug-in file by navigating to:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats
    N.B. Before you start the download you need to do some preparation. Navigate to the File Formats Folder and move Camera Raw.8bi  I suggest you move it from the File Formats folder to My Documents or drag it to the desktop before you begin. This will prevent it being overwritten by the new Camera Raw file (it will have the same name) and you can always move it back again if the download installation fails.
