Install problems with PSE 8 free trial

I downloaded the free trial of PSE 8 from the Adobe site to my new computer running with VISTA.  I then was told I needed to unzip so I successfully downloaded a Winzip program which, as I guess is supposed to free up these large files.  I can't figure out what to do next.  When I go into the Winzip program, I see a bunch of unzipped files that, taken together, add up to about a 1.1 GB large download which is what PSE 8 is.  How do I proceed to install so I can finally get to the program?  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Ankush
1. Download successful
2. Launch EXE - no UAC, no AV, run as administrator
3. As extraction reaches 100% a failure error displays (step 2 image below)
4. Never actually get to start PSE installation. If the setup.exe file is run another error shows. Interestingly, setup.ini is empty 0 bytes.
My take is that the file for download is corrupt the .7z, possibly by the download manager or maybe in extraction.
What is very weird is that this has happened on both an old Vista install and now a fresh W7 (64bit) Pro install.
Could it be machine related? Maybe, but it would have to be a hardware conflict of some sort ...

  • Few problems with PSE 11

    Hi everybody,
    I have a problem with my PS Elements 11. I was working on trial and then decided to buy full version, however few things seems to work different than on my trial and I can't find solution.
    1) When I copy one image to another it makes transparent layer on it altho capacity is set on 100% still. On my trial image copied or cuted to another pic was looking exactly as original and after I could lower transparency by lowering capacity.
    2) When I want to use normal brush and make just one spot, or paint with one line not with a lot of points or other symbols. I thought aerograph function is the reason but it paints with it and normal the same (as many symbols)
    3) When I select part of image with square selection tool it makes a circle with it or rounded field but somehow square selected image is finally copied. It seems it finds some borders on img by itself and changes selected square to it.
    I would be very glad if someone could help me to resolve those issues. I will feel free to post others also if I they will come to my mind.
    thanks!

    Thank you for your information about my problem with PSE 11. I have since tried the programme on 2 different computers and it works fine. Seems like the problem is with my computer although my old PSE 10 works okay. I'd appreciate any ideas about what could be wrong with my computer to cause my photos to break up into various segments which don't join together particularly when I move them into 'before and after horizontal' or '......vertical' and even when zooming them.

  • Fragmentation problems with PSE 11

    I have just installed PSE & Premier Elements 11 on Vista Ultimate. When I try to edit my photos they become fragmented and look like a jigsaw puzzle. This does not happen with PSE 10 on the same computer. Can anyone tell me why this occurs?  Could it be a fault with the software?

  • Catalog backup problems with PSE 11

    Hi,
    I'm having terrible problems trying to backup my catalog to an external hard drive.
    My PC is running Windows 7 with 8 GB of internal memory. My external hard drive is formatted to FAT 32 and has 130GB of spare capacity. My catalog is 45GB.
    I have previously backed up the the catalog without any problems but can't remember if I did this before I upgraded to PSE 11.
    I initially tried doing a full backup but got an error part way through writing the 'breeze' data. Having read that the breeze data was only used for face recognition, I deleted the remaining breeze data files and tried again.
    I then encountered a problem when writing some of my early .jpg files. I couldn't see any obvious problem with these but tried removing them and runnning the back up again.
    This time it got a bit further but hung up on some .mpg files.
    I removed all video files and tried again.
    This time it got up to over 60% complete but it then hung up on some early files which had a 'description' 2002 rather than a straight date name to the file. I thought that there might be a problem with file names including ' 's ', so removed these and tried again.
    I then tried running Catalog 'optimize' and 'repair' (I didn't tick 'the re-index visual similarity data').
    I eventually got up to over 65% complete but couldn't get the backup to go past my 2007 files no matter what files I removed.
    I then tried doing an incremental backup using a Catalog file that I had created in 2011. This backup failed with 'an error encountered while writing.....WaldoData\waldo.cache'
    I now don't know what to try! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    FYI, looking at the backup Catalog files that I have previously created, it appears that only the first contains all the images from whole catalog with an equal number of .xml files.
    Two others which I created (which I can't remember were full or incremental backups) only have some of the images. I'm sure that this can't be right.
    I presume that for an intial backup the .xml files should run from B0000001 to Bnnnnnnn; the .jpg/.mpg/ etc from Bnnnnnnn+1 to B 2(nnnnnnn) and that when one runs an incremental back up the new .xml files are added from B2(nnnnnnn)+1 to B2(nnnnnnnn)+(mmmm) and the image files continuing for a further (mmmm). Is this correct?
    Otherwise what should one be seeing?
    Regards
    Mike

  • If I stay with the free trial and receive over 50 responses will I get notified to upgrade?

    If I stay with the free trial and receive over 50 responses will I get notified to upgrade?  I'm wondering if I will know if more than 50 people respond.

    Hi!
    Just wanted to add some additional detail to Gen's response.
    With a free account:
    The first time that your form reaches 5 responses, FormsCentral will send you an email letting you know that your form is seeing some action and that you may wish to upgrade.
    Then the first time that your form reaches 45 responses, FormsCentral will send you an email letting you know that you are getting close to your quota, again giving you the option to upgrade.
    Finally, FormsCentral will send you an email once your response count goes over your quota of 50. ie. on the 51st response. Responses will continue to be collected until the count reaches 75, giving you time to upgrade. After 75 responses, people accessing your form will see a message that the form is full.
    Hope this helps!

  • Are there still problems with the free Iwork trial when you then buy it?

    Hi all,
    new macbook user - it's brilliant by the way, and first post on here so hi all.
    Saw this thread via a search, and saw similar points on an Amazon review:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2202953
    Does anyone know if this problem still exists (thread was some time ago) or can I download the free trial without worrying (would like to do some work this weekend and dont want to wait for delivery of the software - I def plan to buy it).
    Apols if the topic has been recently covered, please direct me to that if so
    Thanks

    Apple made a decision which boggles my mind: there are two versions of iWork, one you purchase online getting a serial number you apply to the demo. The demo contains the full contents of the program, you lose nothing by purchasing the program this way. The other version of iWork is a boxed copy, the same as the demo+serial# except that this version requires no serial number. Mixing the two creates unhappy people
    If you download the demo and then purchase the boxed version you must remove the demo (and all support files and preferences associated with the demo) before installing the disc copy. If you don't, the program thinks you need a serial number and continues working in demo mode until it expires.
    If you can't wait for the box to arrive, why not just download the demo and purchase the serial# online from Apple?

  • Problems with PSE for Mac Trial - Downloaded it and cannot find it

    I am fairly computer savvy, but new to Mac.  I had PSCS2 on my old PC and with the conversion to Mac I was going to go for PSE8 (since a lot of the things I use PS for weren't available in PSE when I bought CS2, but are now available with PSE8).  I downloaded the free trial (bc I wanted to compare it to CS), but cannot figure out how to launch it.
    I know.  I"m an idiot.  Can anyone help?

    Sorry, but I'm confused by the discrepancy between your thread title and the body of your post. Do you mean you don't know where the download went? It should have gone into your downloads folder, which is usually able to be accessed as a stack in the dock if you haven't removed it from there. If you have, open a finder window and click on your username>downloads.

  • Problems with PSE 11 and Filter Forge

    Is anyone else having problems launching Filter Forge from PSE 11?  It used to work, but now freezes after a very partial load.  FF still works with PSE 9, and yes, I have the latest version of PSE 11 installed on a 64-bit version of Win 7 Pro.

    I did not use the trial version of PSE 7 but installed directly from a purchased CD.  The "registration" option under the help menu of the editor is not highlighted and there is no option to deactivate the serial number under help in either the editor or the organizer.  Therefore I must assume that Ankush is correct that there is nothing that I need to do prior to uninstalling PSE 7.
    Also, am I correct to assume that since this original post was marked as a discussion and not a question, I do not need to close it in any way?
    Thanks to all who have responded and offered assistance.

  • How do I fix a problem with PSE 13 not being able to open my printer so I cannot print anything?

    PSE 12 Trial version worked fine with my printer but now I get errors like " the saved print information is an incompatible version.  It has been set to default values."  As well as, " default printer could not be opened."  I have Windows 7.  I tried uploading the latest version of the driver for the HP Color Laser Jet CMI1312nfi MFP printer.  Help!  No sense having PSE if you cannot print!  Thanks

    Try renaming the printer to something shorter. There've been problems in the past with HP printers with names that are too long for PSE.

  • Problem With PSE-2 and New 1.5 TB Drive

    Hi all. First of all, I've been using my registered PSE-2 for several years with no problem. AMD Athalon 7750 dual core at 2.7 Ghz, 2.0 G Memory. WD 1.5 TB primary and WD 500 GB secondary drive.Win XP SP3. I recently had a drive fail and installed a new freshly formatted WD 1.5 TB as my boot drive. Fresh install of WinXP and updates. Now when I install Elements, it appears to install fine. The problem comes when I attempt to start it the first time I get "Could not initialize Photoshop Elements because the scratch discs are full". Then Elements closes, thus not allowing me to do anything with the internal configuration of the program. I have tried unistalling and installing to the 500 GB drive, but still get the same error. I have increased my page file memory Does anyone know of a problem with installing Elements on a large drive or can anyone offer a possible solution to what I am seeing? Thanks in advance for suggestions...
    JohnR.

    I think Barbara meant photoshop 7, which was out a little before pse2.
    If you hold down the Alt+Ctrl keys just after you start pse2, a dialog
    should appear allowing you to choose the scratch disk (keep holding
    the keys until the dialog appears)
    If you have a recovery partition on your hard drive, try choosing this for
    the scratch disk and then exit pse2. Then restart pse2 and from
    Preferences>Plug-ins and Scratch Disks choose your regular hard drive for the scratch disk.
    Newer versions of pse, at least newer than 3 or 4 don't seem to have this problem.
