Install of Photoshop Elements 9 on Win7 x64 fails

Hi @all,
we want to install Photoshop Elements 9 win german Volume license on Win7x64 Enterprise silently on our clients.
During testing, the following thing occurs:
Install ends clean, seee the  eventlog entries: (I´m sorry for the german language)
Produkt: Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. Ein Neustart ist erforderlich. Die Installation oder Aktualisierung des Produkts erfordert einen Neustart, damit alle Änderungen in Kraft treten. Der Neustart wurde auf einen späteren Zeitpunkt verschoben.
Eine Windows Installer-Transaktion wird beendet: C:\temp\AdobePhotoshop\V9_WIN_deu\PSE 9\Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.msi. Clientprozess-ID: 2708.
Für Windows Installer ist ein Neustart des Systems erforderlich. Produktname: Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. Produktversion: 9.0. Produktsprache: 1033. Hersteller: Adobe Systems Incorporated. Typ des Systemneustarts: 2. Ursache des Neustarts: 4.
Product: Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 -- Installation operation completed successfully.
Das Produkt wurde durch Windows Installer installiert. Produktname: Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. Produktversion: 9.0. Produktsprache: 1033. Hersteller: Adobe Systems Incorporated. Erfolg- bzw. Fehlerstatus der Installation: 0.
But, when I want to start Photoshop during the installed desktop icon, the file wouldn´t be found.
When I have a look to the installation folder, there is no
%drive%\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 9 Organizer  folder, on which the ...elements.exe must resist.
I´v tested the installation on different machines and more times - every time the same.
Here are some informations about my installation:
I´ve created a application.xml.override with the following content, located in the installation folder:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Configuration>
<Payload>
<Data key="EULADelay">0</Data>
<Data key="EULA">Suppress</Data>
<Data key="Registration">Suppress</Data>
<Data key="Updates">Suppress</Data>
</Payload>
</Configuration>
I´ve modified the setup.ini file to change the features, set the license number and want to write a log file -> the log file also didn´t exists.

Thanks for your answers

Hi Ankush,
what a speed for an answer, wow. Very nice.
OK; at this time, I can´t get support thru the Adobe enterprise support team; we want to buy support, but later .... (not my opinion...)
So, I installed/changed the PSE described in the following document:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/861/cpsid_86149.html
but in the setup.ini file, I want to choose to write down a log file for troubleshooting (like here), install silent (without /qb- oder /passive, the installation is not silen -normaly...) - why not? In the serup.ini file, I found the msiexec parameters inside the setup.ini, why do not here a change to have a log for installation....like described for older PSE versions....
Now, I´ve changed the setup.ini file back to its original state (see below) and only use the steps from the doc above...

And I use the following setup command to start the installation:
(like the doc from adobe)
Start /wait C:\"Adobe Photoshop Elements 9"\Setup.exe /UL1031 /V"SERIALNUMBER=1111-1111-1111-1111-1111-1111"
It´s starts the installation completely silent in background - good; ->  I want to have a log file for the installation; how can I setup this thing?
The installations runs...
The Installation is done, result is 0 -> and I can start Elements thu the desktop icon-> very good.
mmmh. When I have a look in the event logs, I can see, there there many install entries for more products, like MS VC++ and Element programs as I can see thru my install tests before....I think, there is the problem. The first installation only installs the Photoshop editor, not more....
Now: But, when I start Elements, It asks me to change the region/country - can I setup these thru the installion process, the my user don´t need to setup this?
The main goal is done (done? is this right?), when I can have a log and no more region/country settings, it would be perfect!
Thank you

  • Silent install of Photoshop Elements 10 via SCCM fails

    Hi all, hoping someone can help. I'm trying to push out deployment of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 via SCCM. From Adobe's site I found details on adding an XML file to preconfigure various default settings and perform a silent install.  I can push out
    the package to my test PC's cache folder no problem, but the advertisement fails with "Failed (bad environment)" message ID 10003. The system cannot find the file specified."
    However, I can install the program manually, running the same code from the command line. So, on my test PC, if I go to c:\windows\system32\cache\(package) from the command line, I can type the following "start /wait Setup.exe /UL1033 /V"SERIALNUMBER=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
    (as per Adobe's instructions) and Photoshop Elements 10 will silently install just fine.
    I've read elsewhere that SCCM can have issues with server paths and making use of the %~dp0 variable but I'm unsure if that applies here. In SCCM, in the program properties for PE10, the drive mode is set to "Runs with UNC name." I tried changing to 'requires
    drive letter" but it still failed. I'm guessing I'm dealing with some sort of environment issue but I'm stuck as to how to fix. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Sir_Timbit

    I used "start /wait" as that was what was listed on Adobe's silent install instructions at http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/silent-install-instructions-photoshop-elements-1.html
    Again, it installs fine manually, *if* I point a command prompt to c:\windows\system32\ccm\cache\(cache folder)\ and run the start /wait setup.exe line below. But through SCCM, the advertisement report shows:
    Message ID:10003. Failed (bad environment)
    An error occurred while preparing to run the program for advertisement "ABC20074" ("ABC00041" - "Install Photoshop Elements 10"). The operating system reported error -2147024894: The system cannot find the file specified. Additional program properties: Command
    line: start /wait Setup.exe /UL1033 /V"SERIALNUMBER=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" Working directory: Drive letter (? = any): Possible cause: This message most commonly occurs when the program's command-line executable file could not be found, when a required
    drive letter connection to a distribution point could not be established, or when the program is configured to use the SMS Software Installation Account but the account is not specified, could not be found, or does not have the appropriate permissions. Solution:
    Check each of the items listed above.

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop elements 10 on my iMac gets hung up at 9% and fails to complete.

    I purchased an Epson Perfection V600 Photo Scanner which included a copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.  whenever I try to install Elements 10 on my iMac, it hangs up at 9% and doesn't complete.  I am using the correct Adobe disk for Mac.  What can I do to get this program installed on my iMac.

    Can I install Adobe Photoshop Elements, I bought recently, on my two different computers; one is PC running Windows 7 and the other is iMac running Mac OS 10.6?
    Yes, PSE is cross-platform, anyway.
    As my Adobe Photo Shop Elements 10 came bundled with the 'Trial version'  of Adobe Premier Elements 10, can I purchase the 'Serial Number' only and how to do it?
    You just buy a normal license as a download, if you so desire. This gives you a serial and a download option, the latter of which you then of course will not need and can simply input the serial in your disc install.

  • Installing old Photoshop Elements on a new computer

    I have an old version of Photoshop Elements and a new MAC. It was previously installed on my PC which crashed. But the new MAC won't let me install this software - it tells me there is an error with the install.

    OK... so this is an OLD version - it is 4.0 (2006). My MAC is running OS X Version 10.8.2. The installation begins and some of the files begin installing then it quits and the message reads: "The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."
    Thanks

  • Photoshop Elements 12.1 upgrade fails

    Photoshop Elements 12.1 update fails with U44M1P2003 error. Tried shutting down antivirus and firewall. Also looked at registry entries suggested with three of the four missing and the fourth was correct path.

    99jon:
    Doing another uninstall/re install and disabling Avast and Windows firewall allowed the Elements 12.1 update to install. After the PSE 12. re-install I could not initialize PSE12 properly. I would start the editor from the initial drop down menu and the PSE editor would start and briefly flash on the screen then disappear. Organizer works fine but attempting to launch the editor from organizer also results in the editor initial screen flashing briefly then disappearing. I downloaded and installed the 12.1 update from the organizer and it appears to work except for launching the editor. . This is at least the 3rd re-install and don't understand why the 12.1 update worked this time but appreciate the suggestion. The 12.1 update issue is resolved but the product is still not functional.

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 on MacBook Air

    I'm trying to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 on my new MacBook Air, but have no cd drive. Is there a way to download this without a cd drive?

    Trials of almost all software are available for download from the manufacturer's website. That's one of the reasons that the MacBook Air has no DVD drive.
    Invariably the website trials are more up to date than the physical disk so you often don't have to install updates after the initial install.
    Visit the website and follow the links. Or just use Google to find it.

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 on multiple computers: invalid serial number

    I need to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 on my new computer in place of my old one. However, when trying to use the original installation disk, the serial number I enter comes up as 'invalid'. Is this because I've already used it once? If so, is there any way to still install Photoshop Elements 10 for the second time?

    Contact serial number support by phone or web chat.

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop Elements Causes My Computer to Cut Out on Booting UP!

    I have installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 on my new computer running windows 7 64 bit. I did not appreciate the problems. The first time that I installed it the computer shut down as soon as it was loaded and from then onwards it shut down within seconds of the computer booting up into windows. I used system restore to take the computer back to before Elements 10 was installed. The computer kept on switching off after windows had booted up. Took it into the technician who thought the PSU was at fault and he put in a new unit. The computer then worked fine until I installed Elements 10 and again the computer switches off as soon as windows as booted up. I have again used system restore to take the computer back to before Elements 10 was installed, still it switches off shortly after booting into windows. What can I do to get things to work properly?  I have a brand new computer that I am unable to use as a result of installing Elements 10. I am typing this on my old computer running Vista 34 bit with Elements 10 installed and all working well. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

    I have had a similar experience - Elements organizer crashed and even when not running, my computer froze after a few minutes.  My PC had never crashed before this installation.
    I found a solution though...
    After a little sleuthing using task manager, I found that all the memory in my system (4GB) gets suddenly hogged (within seconds) by the "Elements Organizer" process (3GB) ... I found the service correspponding to this process, "Adobe Active File Monitor v10", stopped it and set autostart to manual.  My PC no longer crashes.
    I think Adobe needs to look into this one - it has all the hallmarks of a nasty memory leak. 
    A couple of possible clues as to why certain systems don't take well to this service:
    - I have a few very large video clips (2hours+) on my PC
    - I installed trial products like light room, CS5 before settling on Photoshop+Premiere Elements - could leftovers after uninstalling cause conflicts?
    - I have other video editors on my system that I don't use, like Corel VideoStudio and Sony Vegas.
    Thoughts?

  • Trying to install Adobe Photoshop elements 8 on MAC 10.6.8

    Trying to install Adobe Photoshop elements 8 (that I bought a while ago and never installed) on my MacBook Pro, Intel Core 2 Duo, OS 10.6.8.
    When I insert the PS Elements Disk, a PSE page came up with Read me etc which I read.  I clicked on the blue PSE folder and a window with Bootstrapper.dmg came up. I clicked on that and a window opened asking me to type in my administrator passsword to allow Setp to make changes, which I did, twice... and then nothing happened...
    Is there something else I am suppose to do? OH, another mounted drive appeared in Finder with a long name... "EFBB...........". When I opened it, it had an assets folder  and two .js files (whatever they are)...
    What more do I have to do?

    I think I figued it out... But why installations instructions didn't come up when I inserted the disk was very annoying. And because they didn't, Adobe should post th installations instructions somewhere on their support site. Not here now, which is also annoying.

    Is it safe to uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 after installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12?  I just upgraded from 10 to 12 and wanted to know if it is safe or if there would be any issues with uninstalling and removing Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. 

    Yes you can, if you are happy with the way PSE12 is running.
    However both apps will happily co-exist, and there is no duplication as both use the same images on your hard drive.
    PSE10 also has some features now removed from PSE12 as Adobe transitions towards 64 bit applications. See my PSE12 first look link:

    The message I get is:
    'The wizard was interrupted before Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run the installation again.'
