I receive a message asking me to remove Photoshop Elements

Hi Jeff,
I need some help, please....
My download completed; I want to finish the install.  I click on "Open Bundle", and it tells me to "Please wait while the downloaded files are being extracted."
The extraction completes and following this, I get a screen that says:
Files Are Ready
Downloads files have been extracted and saved.
  a.. Launch Adobe Photoshop Elements 10
  b.. Open the Specified folder
I click on the first box... "Launch..." and the next screen says:
Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Setup
The InstallShield Wizard will allow you to remove Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.  To continue, click "Next"
Do I really want to click next to remove it?  I want to install it, not remove it!!
Thanks,
Gina Cena

If you go to Programs & Features if Photoshop Elements 10 already listed there?  Perhaps you have already installed the software previously?

    One idea is to hold down the cmd-opt-shift keys and start Photoshop. It will ask you if you want to delete the settings file. Answer "Yes" and it will create a new Preferences files. Photoshop should continue  to load.

  • How to manually remove Photoshop Elements 4.0 from Windows

    My uninstaller for Photoshop Elements 4.0 in Add or Remove programs fails with the message - "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed." The program folder still resides on my harddrive. The program itself neither runs nor will it allow me to delete the program files' Photoshop Elements 4.0 folder that contains the executable and dll files from my harddrive. I need a manual uninstall proceedure.

    Have you got the disc? If so, you might try installing it again then an uninstall.
    Failing that...
    Here's the Adobe tech doc on removing Photoshop Elements 5. I would assume it would be the same procedure.

  • I removed Photoshop Elements 9 and 10 from my laptop. It also removed parts of my version 12. I am not able to re-install verion 12. The install program keeps wanting to un-install version 12

    I was cleaning up the programs on my hard drive and removed Photoshop Elements 9 and 10. I used Revo Uninstaller Pro to remove all the left over files and registry entries. Revo also removed parts of my version 12. I re-downloaded the demo version again as I already have the serial number. When I run the install program files my only choice is to remove version 12 and I'm not able to install

    Try this,
    Run the cleaner tool. clean the product(if you see).
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Then Rename/delete all the Adobe folders.
    The locations are: 64 bit computer.
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe.
    32 bit computer.
    C:\Program Files \Common Files\Adobe.
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe.
    You also have Adobe folders in :
    C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe
    C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Locallow\Adobe
    C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\OOBE
    Then Re-install the product.

  • How do I remove Photoshop Elements help files?

    Greetings,
    I removed Photoshop Elements 9, but the help files are still in Adobe Community Help 3.5.0.23. How do I remove the PSE9 files from Community Help?
    I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit.
    Thanks,
    Shane.

    Thanks. Tried the FAQ before posting.  Perhaps you are better at wording a query; my attempts were unsuccessful. Am using the 30 day trial to see if I wish to purchase PE as the Oranizer function is my primary interest. Still would greatly appreciate some guideance so that I might proceed with importing contents of my HD as part my trial.

  • What do I do if I get the error message "invalid licence number for Photoshop Elements 13"?

    I have just purchased Photoshop Elements 13 on line and received an email with the serial number to activate my trial copy on a Mac.
    When I enter the serial number to license my trial copy, I get an error message saying that " this is not a valid license number for Photoshop 13.
    I have followed all instructions on Adobe's troubleshooting pages. Same result.
    I have reinstalled the trail version. Same result.
    I have contacted Adobe through chat and for the past three days I keep getting the message "chat not available".
    I have called the Adobe sales department. They confirmed that the serial number I registered is the correct licence number but told me they cannot provide product support.
    I have posted a message on this forum. No response.
    Before I ask for a refund any futher thoughts on what I can do next?

  • Removing Photoshop Elements 9 caused missing lens profiles in Lightroom 3.3

    After my trial on Photoshop Elements 9 expired I removed it from my Windows Vista system.  The next time I started Lightroom 3.3 I tried to apply a Canon lens profile to some new images and the profile was missing, not only was it not on the list, none of the 862 images taken with this lens had the profile applyed to them anymore.  I tried to repair the installation and it failed saying I was missing components.  I then tried to upgrade to RC 3.4 & it failed with the same message.  I finally thought it might have been caused by the removal of Photoshop Elements so I went to the restore point that it did prior to removal.  Now I have the lens profile back that was missing the Canon EF28-135mm profile as well as to the other 862 images.  My question is should there be anything else I should look for to see if it is missing or damaged?  Thanks - Larry

    Larry,
    The common part between LR and PSE is the Camera Raw part (ACR). It's settings are contained in 2 different locations:
    1) General ACR configuration files:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw
    This directory contains lens and camera profiles installed with LR
    2) User related configuration files:
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw
    This directory usually contains:
    Downloaded/created lens profiles
    ACR defaults (like ACR cache size, any defaults set in LR)
    Downloaded/created camera profiles
    You might want to check the content of those 2 locations. One other alternative would be to uninstall and re-install LR, which should take care of the factory supplied profiles.

  • Error message trying to install adobe photoshop elements 4.0 on to my new macbook air

    just tried installing previously purchased adobe photoshop elements 4.0 on to my new macbook air... it gave me an error and asked that i contact manufacturer... kinda cant wait til tomorrow... anyone out there that can help?

    As I said in your other thread, PSE 4 has not been compatible with OS X since around 10.4. It will not install in 10.8. PSE 6 is the oldest version you can use. PSE 4 is a PPC application and 10.8 requires intel software.

  • Message on an email from photoshop elements 12.

    Hi,
    Are you using the Adobe e-mail client service on a Windows system?
    That was a problem introduced at version 10.
    The only way around it is to use something like Notepad to compose your message. Then you can select the new text and use Ctrl & C to copy it to the clipboard. Next, go to the new message, highlight the text to be replaced and use Ctrl & V to paste in the new text.
    The alternative is to switch to using Windows Live Mail as the e-mail client or buy version 13.

  • Buy Now message for purchased version of Photoshop Elements 12

    I keep getting the Buy Now message for my purchased version of Photoshop Elements 12.
    I used the trial version before and think this may be what is causing the problem.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but this does not solve teh problem.

    I have already installed the version I bought on CD. It worked for a while, but then I got the message about the trial being over and I had to Buy Now.
    I had been using the trial version before buying it on CD, so it is extremely annoying to be told I should be buying it now. I have bought it, but cannot use it as I cannot get past the welcome screen!
    I have entered the serial number which came with the CD! But the Buy Now persists. If I could find anyone at Adobe to tell them, I would, but unfortunately there is no help line or contact email.
    Thanks for trying to help.

  • I cannot remove Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 from my Mac running OS X Yosemite 10.10. I receive a message asking me to quit 'Installer".

    Can I disable "Installer" which is an application included in OS X?

  • Tried installing latest iTunes (10.5.3.3). During installation received error message asking to verify access to "C:\Config.Msi\187e500.rbf". The only option it gives is "try again" or "cancel". No choice but to cancel installation. Any suggestions?

    The problem started when my current iTunes kept popping up a window stating that my Auto Run was turned off. (which means iTunes will not be able to recognize when a CD is inserted or ejected). It asked if I wanted iTunes to run  Auto Run and I select Yes every time (this window pops up every time I open my iTunes), but a second window pops up stating iTunes cannot turn on my Auto Run setting (but it will still be able to recognize CDs) to which I choose okay. A third window pops up after stating that iTunes was not properly installed and if I wish to import or burn CDs I need to re-install iTunes, except that I can import CDs since I did this only yesterday and this problem has been going on at least a month.
    To add to this, I cannot cannot automatically update to version 10.5.3. (I don't recall which problem came first, my Auto Run problem or the fact that my iTunes can't update). iTunes suggested that I manually install the update, so I went to the apple site and tried manually installing the latest iTunes (10.5.3). However, during the installation process I received an error message. It asked me to verify access to "C:\Config.Msi\187e500.rbf". The only option it gives is "try again" or "cancel". I tried hitting Try again a few times but the same error message popped up, so I had no choice but to cancel the installation. Afterwards, I tried searching in my C drive but could not find "C:\Config.Msi\187e500.rbf"
    Does anyone have any suggestions how I can update my iTunes?

    I should have posted this earlier, but anyway. I restored my laptop to factory version after backing up any useful data, and the first thing I the laptop was restored was connect to the internet, download and install the latest version of iTunes. And Bingo! It worked.

  • Not receiving MouseWheel message because focus is removed from control

    I am trying to implement some mousewheel interaction as can be seen in e.g. Visual Studio. When the mouse is over a control and the mousewheel is scrolled the control under the mousewheel is scrolled instead of the control that has focus. I do this by adding
    a MessageFilter (but also tried a WH_CALLWNDPROC hook) and detecting the WM_MOUSEWHEEL message as it passes and pass it to the control under the mouse cursor. This all works as expected when at least one of the form controls have focus, however sometimes the
    focus is lost fi when a control in a container is disabled and there are no other enabled controls in that container. In that case the WM_MOUSEWHEEL event is never send and it doesn't work anymore.
    To test this behavior I created a test application that contains a message filter and a control that is derived from UserControl. That control contains a button that will have focus. Then the button Click event will disable the button itself. After
    that the focus is lost and WM_MOUSEWHEEL isn't received by my filter anymore.
    So how can I make sure that the WM_MOUSEWHEEL is always send by a) always have a focused control (how do I do this)? b) is there another way to intercept WM_MOUSEWHEEL even when no control is focused?

    I agree with you that is an issue we need to deal with...
    Is this a bug in .NET? Why is the keyboard focus set to a control (as we can use TAB to navigate) but Windows doesn't know it has a focused control?
    ...I added a line inside that method to get the control's parent focused, you could have a try.
    Your idea does work, however this application is just for reproducing the problem. The real application is much more complicated, but I have implemented a workaround. It is something like:
    void UpdateControls()
        var hadFocus = containerControl.ContainsFocus;
        containerControl.Controls.UpdateVisualState();
        if (hadFocus && !containerControl.ContainsFocus)
            containerControl.Focus();
    I think there could be a lot of other situations that could result in a loss of focus. I wouldn't like to write these kind of workarounds for each case. Isn't there a somewhat more robust solution to this problem? How does Visual Studio make sure that there
    is always a control with focus? I mean I don't see any problems occur in the IDE of Visual Studio where the mousewheel isn't working because of focus loss.
    Hello,
    The workaround you shared works and I agree with you that we could be sure that usercontrol could get focus but it seems like that usercontrol doesn't get any focus.
    To confirm whether there is any way to solve this issue and submit this issue to product team, I would recommend you submit a feedback in
    http://connect.microsoft.com. 
    You could share the link of your feedback here that we could help you vote it. I think that Microsoft engineers will evaluate them seriously and provide you better support. In addition, you can post the answer here once the issue is resolved.
    Thanks for your sharing and understanding.
