My new photoshop elements 13 wont launch. HELP!!!!

I recently installed elements 13 on my computer and when I try to launch it, it asks me to sign in, then asks me to agree to the terms, and then when I click agree it disappears and nothing happens. I cannot get it to launch. Please help!

Hi,
Please try out following steps and see if it helps:
Enable the (Hidden) Administrator account on your computer. See Administrator account for more information.
Sign out of your current user account and log in as the Administrator.
Launch Photoshop Elements Editor and log in from the sign-in screen, using your Adobe ID.
If the editor launches successfully, disable the (Hidden) Administrator account you created in Step 1. See Administrator account for more information on disabling an account.

  • Newly installed Photoshop Elements 3 not launching - help!

    Hi there,
    just installed Photoshop Elements 3 on the new G5 iMac - both bought a couple of weeks ago from Apple store on-line.
    Installation of PE3 seemed to go ok.
    But double-clicking the application makes it blink a couple of times in the dock, and then nothing. Tried removing and re-installing a few times..but the application never launches. Any thoughts as to what I can do to fix this?
    Is this an issue with Tiger or with PE3? Or incompabability between the two?
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi there,
    I recently transferred my old files + apps across using migration assistant from the old iMac (which had been running OS X 2.8 Jaguar). When I first tried to install PE3, immediately after insertion of the disc, a Norton anti-virus disc checking screen came up and tried to check the disc. I cancelled the scan, and carried on the installation. When PE3 wouldn't launch, I figured it might be something to do with the anti-virus software. The Norton stuff was installed on my old machine - but I didn't want to use it for the new mac as I heard bad things about it. I couldn't figure out how to remove all the Norton software, until I came across some good advice in another area of the discussions. I have now successfully removed all Norton files from the iMac. However, despite trashing the PE3 app that wouldn't launch, and then installing it again, I still can't get PE3 to actually launch. Neither from the dock, nor from the applications folder. It just moves up and down once in the dock, and then does nothing. Deleting from the dock, and then launching from applications, the same thing happens, the PE3 symbol appears in the dock, moves up and down once, but then disappears.
    Very frustrating. I know the application works well with Tiger, as I've seen it in the Apple store in London... so there must be something I'm doing wrong...
    any more thoughts?

  • Photoshop Elements 12 wont launch in Vista

    I recenly installed Elements 12 on Vista (ater numerous failed attempts) but it wont launch. Any solutions?

    Any error messages?
    Can you launch the individual executables (organizer / editor)?
    What happens if you right-click an image and select Open With> Photoshop Elements Editor?
    Did you disable your anti-virus / firewall during installation?
    What happens if you right click the shortcut and select 'Run As Administrator'?

  • Photoshop Elements 11 wont launch

    I have installed photoshop elements 11 from disk, but it will not launch. I open it and nothing happens. I have uninstalled and reinstalled but no change. I have run as operator and I have troubleshoot compatibility issues the only clue I got was no Gdiplus.dll file, but there is a file of this name in the elements 11 folder. I am running Windows 7.
    Can anyone help?

    It's a windows file having to do with graphics rendering. There are several places to download it online but since I don't know which are legit I'm not going to link to any.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 Wont Launch Organizer

    I am ready to pull my hair out. I can no longer access my photoshop elements organizer. I have tried pressing ctrl alt shift with no luck.......Nothing happens. Please Please help.

    Found this from John`s blog (http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#Reset_the_Organizers_online _services). Please try.
    If a photo upload to an online service like Smugmug or Flickr fails, the Organize may then crash every time you try to restart it.  Reinstalling has no effect. 
    To troubleshoot this, start the Organizer and let it crash. Then check the contents of the file:
    PSE 6/7, XP: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\v.0\Organizer\log.txt
    PSE 6/7, Windows 7/Vista: C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\v.0\Organizer
    PSE 8, XP: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Elements Organizer\v.0\Organizer\log.txt
    PSE 8, Windows 7/Vista: C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\v.0\Organizer
    Replace v with 6, 7, or 8. You may need to configure Windows Explorer to view hidden files.
    If the last line is:
    Initializing OLS
    then you’ve been struck by this bug. To work around it, see this Adobe tech note:
    PSE 6: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405252.html
    PSE 7: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408913.html
    The PSE 7 tech note also applies to PSE 8 – replace 7.0 with 8.0 in the folder name it says to delete.

  • Need help in new Photoshop elements

    I just purchased my new Photoshop Elements.
    I go to open a file and it just lets me have 1 open, I used to have a large workspace, where I could open multiple files and see them all together on same screen - how to I set this so I can back to it? Also I used to be able to right click on an image and get the "Resize-Image" feature, now this is gone too.

  • There is no serial number in my new Photoshop Elements package - what do I do?

    There is no serial number in my new Photoshop Elements package - what do I do?

    The serial number is often on the white liner box inside the printed box, if you got a serial number. But these days you often get a redemption code instead, which you use to get a serial number. The redemption code may be on your receipt:

    Photoshop elements 10 should be able to open those files if you update to camera raw 6.7
    Which operating system are you using?
    windows
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7 update for Elements 10
    mac
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7 update for Elements 10
    Also, photoshop elements 13 will open those files as well.

  • Hello - I am new to using Photoshop Elements 11, Can you help me?

    Hello
    I have got 2 questions for using Photoshop Elements 11 -
    1. How can i delete loads of duplicate images that i have imported?
    2. What is the difference between albums and folders - I have set them up and basically they are all just the same photos i have grouped together - seems pointless having them twice!
    Thanks!

  • Photoshop Elements 9 wont start

    Hi
    I've successfully been using Photoshop Elements 7 for some time now, but have recently downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements 9 (PSE9). The installation was successfull - no errors. When I started PSE9, the welcome screen started fine, I selected the organiser. The familiar organiser started - then before it completed its load, it crashed and returned me to the Windows desktop.
    Looking through the forums, the advice was to ensure underlying software (Apple, Mircosoft etc ) is OK....done that, still would not start. Have also de-installed PSE7 and Premier Elements 7, cleaned the register, renamed the PSA file......still nothing - the organiser wont start.
    Finally, I've started the editor - that works fine.....however, the organiser still wont start from the editor.
    Help appreciated
    Graham

    Start PSE to get to the Welcome screen. Hold down the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys and click Organize. Keep holding down the keys until you see the Catalog window.  Select your catalog and click Repair.  Select “repair anyway” even if PSE doesn’t find problems.
    Then for good measure, click Optimize.  (The documentation says that Optimize merely optimizes the performance of your catalog, but some people have reported that it also enabled catalog conversion to proceed after they initially encountered errors.)
    If repairing the catalog doesn’t help, repeat the steps above, but instead of clicking Repair, click New to create a new test catalog.
      If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works correctly, then there’s likely something about the old catalog that is corrupted in some other way.
    try and let me know your comments.
    Thanks,
    Garry
