Installing Elements on two platforms

If I buy Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements, can I install them on my Windows desktop AND my Macbook Air?

Yes.
PS and PSE Elements are two of the few Adobe perpetually licensed software products whose serial numbers are multi-platform.

You bet.

Not unless you want to. Each version is a separate standalone version and you can keep both if you like.

How many computers can I install Elements on?

I recently purchased the Costco special edition of Elements 13. I currently have a PC laptop but am getting a Mac for Christmas. My question is can I install Elements on my computer now and then also install it on my new computer when I get it?
Thanks!

As long as you bought a boxed version, yes. You can have two activated installations of PSE. For the boxed versions that can be two macs, two windows computers, or one of each, but downloads are usually limited to two computers on the same platform.

Photoshop Elements 10 installed on my computer. Ready to install elements 12. Will my digital files transfer from 10 to 12?

I have Photoshop Elements installed on my Windows 7, 64 bit computer. I want to install Elements 12. Will my digital files in the Organizer transfer from Elements 10 to 12 with no problems?

If your programs are Photoshop Elements, then you have posted in the wrong forum. This is the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing), not Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum (photo editing).
Photoshop Elements
If wrong forum, then please re-post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
If I were doing this I would probably have the two versions of Photoshop Elements on the same computer and convert the Elements Organizer 10 catalog in Elements Organizer 12. (See Elements Organizer 12, File Menu/Manage Catalogs/Catalog Manager/Convert. But, best ask the experts in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum.

Installing Elements on both a PC and Mac?

Bought and installed Elements 11 on my PC today. But it will not install on my MacAir as it is not recognised as Mac software. How do I install it on my Mac?

It should not. Have you used it for more than 30 days? According to adobe downloaded serial numbers are good for one platform only. Of course you can enter the boxed version numbers into the trial, but serial numbers for windows downloads should not work. If you got it to, good for you, but it's an anomaly.

How can I synchronize two iTunes Libraries on two platforms (Windows & Mac)

I have a MacBook running both Windows XP Pro (Boot Camp) and Mac OS 10.4.9 and I have installed iTunes on both platforms. I have my iTunes Library and songs on an external drive (which I can "see" in Windows via MacDrive), and which I wish to keep in place to save space on my MacBook. Trouble is I cannot get my Windows iTunes to recognize the song files on my Maxtor external drive, even when I point iTunes to these files in the "Advanced" pane of Preferences.
How can I utilize the one song folder by synchronizing the two sets of iTunes so I can listen to music on whichever platform I happen to be working on?
I have tried placing an alias of the iTunes song folder in my iTunes folder in "My Music" in Windows but this does not work.

I agree with Chris CA that this is the way I would *expect* iTunes to behave.
When I look at iTunes from my account (my music is in ~/Music/iTunes/ and not available to my spouse's account), I can see in my music library all my rips and my purchases, just as I would expect. I can use Store>View My Account (<myAppleID>) and all is as expected. Home sharing is NOT on.
Doing the same from the other account is not much different, actually. Nothing in the library yet, of course. Store>View My Account (<herAppleID>) also works. I CAN authorize my computer to play her music. I CAN view her iTunes purchases. When I attempt to download the purchases to HER library, though, I get the following dialog box:
Now I interpret this to mean that this computer (mine) will not download from a different AppleID (also mine) for 90 days. Is that [interpretation] correct?

FAQ: Installing Elements 10, or What do all these disks do?

When you purchase Photoshop and/or Premiere Elements 10 as a boxed product, you get a fair number of disks. The main reason for this is that a boxed product purchase of Elements is dual platform, that is, it's for both Windows and Macintosh.
When dealing with a Photoshop and Premiere Elements combo purchase, you get 5 disks. Here is what they all do:
Disk 1 = Installs the 32-bit version of Premiere Elements 10 and Photoshop Elements 10 on Windows
Disk 2 = Windows 7 64-bit installer (skip Disk 1 if this is your OS). Installs the 64-bit version of Premiere Elements 10 and Photoshop Elements 10 (32-bit)
Disk 3 = Installs Premiere Elements 10 and Photoshop Elements 10 on Mac
Disk 4 = Installs Premiere Elemenst Content (DVD themes, menus, titles, etc.) for Windows
Disk 5 = Installs Premiere Elemenst Content (DVD themes, menus, titles, etc.) for Mac
When working with Photoshop Elements only, you have 3 disks. Here is what they do:
Disk 1 = Installs the 32-bit version of Photoshop Elements 10 on Windows. Also includes a trial installer for Premiere Elements 10
Disk 2 = Installs a trial 64-bit version of Premiere Elements 10 for 64-bit versions of Windows 7
Disk 3 = Installs Photoshop Elements 10 on Mac. Also includes a trial installer for Premiere Elements 10
And finally, when using Premiere Elements only, you have 5 disks. Here is what they do:
Disk 1 = Installs the 32-bit version of Premiere Elements 10 on Windows. Also includes a trial installer for Photoshop Elements 10
Disk 2 = Installs the 64-bit version of Premiere Elements 10 for 64-bit versions of Windows 7
Disk 3 = Installs Premiere Elements 10 on Mac. Also includes a trial installer for Photoshop Elements 10
Disk 4 = Installs Premiere Elemenst Content (DVD themes, menus, titles, etc.) for Windows
Disk 5 = Installs Premiere Elemenst Content (DVD themes, menus, titles, etc.) for Mac

Is it rolling back the installation? you can follow the solution on this link:http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89403.html
try to save the file on your C drive if it doesnt work install it as trial first and just put your serial number once you launch it.
Hope this helps!

Re-installing Elements after an OS upgrade - Help?

I'm finally going to upgrade from WindowXP to Windows 7, which I know will wipe out all of my programs. I have my installation discs for Elements 7, but upgraded online to Elements 8 two years ago. downloadig the software. Can anyone tell me how I re-install Elements 8 after I upgrade the OS? I can find my serial number under My Adobe but can't see where/how to reinstall the software. Thanks!

Hi ,
If you have bought the upgrade of the Element 8 which was the download then the download link should be present in the same Adobe ID through which you bought the product or in which your serial number is present
If incase the download is not present in your Adobe Id account then downlaod the software from below link and use your serial number to serialize it:-

trying to install elements 11 and it comes up with 18 errors in the payload

To get Photo Elements to Install when getting an ERROR 7 on a Macintosh:
After Hours of Internet searches and a few more hours with the Adobe Call Center in India…
Set Permissions to “Read and Write” in Get Info to “Everyone” for the
/Library/Fonts
/Library /Preferences
/User/Library/Preferences
/Applications
Then “Apply” to “Enclosed Folders”
Uninstall Adobe Air, then Reinstall it
Rename these two folders.
Mac HD>library>app support>Adobe>caps
>>>BUT FIRST delete media.db file under caps
Mac HD>library>app support>Adobe>backup
Move any offending font families OUT of the /Library/FONT Folder to the Trash (they will be auto-reinstalled during the installation)
Log out, then Log back in as ROOT user.
Then install off your CD or downloadable install file.
I hope this saves the next poor guy or gal the hours and hassle…

Trying to install Elements 13 and it asks for a serial number. The instructions say the number should start with 1057 but there is no code on the disks, box or envelopes the disks came in that start with 1057. I cannot activate the software without this c

Trying to install Elements 13 and it asks for a serial number. The instructions say the number should start with 1057 but there is no code on the disks, box or envelopes the disks came in that start with 1057. I cannot activate the software without this code and it is a Christmas gift to my wife. HELP!

I had this problem. There are actually two boxes. The outside one with the photos and stuff and glued into it is another box containing the disks. That box has the serial number. Adobe was NO help with this as if no one else ever could not find it. I had to rip open the outer box.

Installed Elements 8 - won't open editor ?

Hi all, I have Photoshop Elements 7 on my laptop already and I just bought Elements 8. I installed Elements 8 and it said that it had detected Elements 7 and I could only have one running at a time. I then installed it. It copied all the files over but just as it going to the last millimetre on the progress bar it crashed the PC. I restarted it and saw that there was now a PSE8 icon on the desktop so double clicked that and it opened the welcome screen. When I click on EDIT it starts to load the editor but then after 5 seconds it stops loading. No error messages or screen changes etc, just stops. So I click it again and the same thing happens ?
I have put the disk back into the laptop, in case it hadn't installed correctly and it goes through the same steps but then I don't get a repair/modify prompt, just a prompt saying its already installed under that destination folder.
Do I have to uninstall it and try reinstalling it again or is it fine, just something from with a specific file etc??
Help!
Many thanks

Thanks for the reply. Well I have made some sort of progress, It was not playing ball so I went into start>control panel>uninstall a program and tried to uninstall it but it said that only installed programs could be installed? So I managed to uninstall it by deleted all the files in the c>programfiles>adobe>elements8 etc. I then put the disk in and the serial number was already in there rather than me enter it? It went through the install process only then to say 'rolling back' and is then removed everything and said that the installation process had been interupted and for me to try again. So then I did a disk clean up and restarted the PC. Once restarted I then put the disk in the CD drive and away we go again. This time like the first time it asked me to enter the serial key into the box and it goes through the installation process. Success it then works BUT after coming out of it and going back into it literally 10 minutes later it says 'our records indicate that this serial key has been used already to set up Elementson two other machines which is the maximum allowed. I have 3 options 1) adobe can check the serial key again as I have deactivated from the other PC and Adobe will validate this 2) I have a different serial key or 3) 30 day trial.
The person I bought it off said they had deactivated it from thier PC
Would the earlier problems have caused the software to activate on my PC but then after I deleted it, it still thinks that its activated so its used up 1 licence or would the previous issues have no bearing and the seller has sold me a copy thats had both licences used ?

How to install Elements 11 on iPad Air? [was:Can someone help?]

How to install elements 11 that I purchased as a download and installed one copy to Mac desktop now I want to install second copy on new Mac iPad air. Can u help?

You cannot install any desktop software of your choosing on iPad Air - only apps specifically written for the iOS operating system and available via the Apple App Store.
Adobe desktop products - including Elements 11 - require the Mac OS X desktop operating system (e.g Mavericks etc). The iPad Air runs the Apple iOS mobile operating system. Software designed for OS X will not run on iOS and vice versa.
The only way to download and install software on the iPad is via the Apple App Store. That's an Apple restriction so they can control your iPad environment and get their cut of App Store sales.
Adobe mobile apps, including Photoshop Touch and Photoshop Express, for various mobile platform including iOS and Android are listed here
http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/mobile._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_mobiledevi ces.html
That's the only Adobe software available for mobile devices, including iPad, so far. Lightroom Mobile is coming soon but it's not ready yet.
P.S. You can run Chrome on the iPad but, again you must download it from the App Store
Chrome: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/chrome/id535886823?mt=8
There's no Firefox for the iPad to my knowledge
