My photoshop elements 11 organizer stopped working for the 30th+ time. Windows 7 Professional...

Elements 11 Organizer stopped. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close and notify you if a solution is found.
Help, has anyone solved this?

Hi Michel
Have tried those few things that seem to be still applicable to version 11 (as you will know it is not being maintained and stops at version 8).  
However, I don't understand what is meant by "sometimes deleting it's saved preferences and registry entries fixes the problem.  To do that see these Adobe Tech. notes."   Unfortunately the link goes to a page which no longer exists.  I guess that rather than "deleting" the saved preferences the author means re-setting to default ?   "Deleting registry entries" is a task which should, as I understand it, only be done by those with a high degree of expertise.  I am not one of them !
Any comment you have will be gratefully received.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 Organizer stopped working on Windows 7 Ultimate N.

    A few months ago, Photoshop Elements 8 Organizer stopped working on my Windows 7 Ultinate N computer.  The photo editor still works and so does Adobe Premiere Elements 8.  Does anyone know of a fix for this problem?  I've done a lot of looking on the Internet with no luck.
    Thanks!

  • My camera on my iPad 2 has stopped working for the second time.

    My camera on my iPad.2 has stopped working for the 2nd time. Last time it just started working again after a couple of months.
    I have tried closing the camera app completely & also re-booting the iPad completely but to no avail.
    Any ideas anyone?

    You'll first need to have iTunes on your computer - from the summary page (the one that opens when you select the iPad in iTunes) it'll give you options for backing up and restoring it. On that page just select 'restore iPad' and that'll get it started.
    Hope it's just software then, those out-of-warranty replacements can get pricey.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 organizer stops working after about 15 minutes with windows 7??

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled, changed preferences, removed preferences, added administrator priviledges with full control to several screens, turned over my screen to Dipanjan, Adobe Rep and still does exactly the same thing. Very frustrating! Anyone else getting this windows pop up screen " Photoshop Elements 11 organizer has stopped working" ?
    If I don't resolve this soon, I'm going back to PSE 10 and I guess I'll just have to eat the money wasted on it.
    Finally resolution!
    Three separate days totaling about 8-10 hours of chat then another 3 or more hours in chat about this issue today with 3 different people. Finally got to Vijay, who said to:
    click on edit in the organizer,
    go to preferences,
    click on media anaylsis,
    uncheck all the boxes.
    That did it!!! Less than two minutes, done!  No more problems. I can't imagine how much of Adobe's and my time and productivity was wasted going through all the laborious steps, often times repeating the same procedures when I got some one new, only to start all over again. 
    Many thanks Vijay. You suceeded where so many others failed!
    I sincerely hope if anyone else suffers this dilemma, this will instantly resolve it for you and avoid the extreme frustration and agony I went through.
    Cheers!

    Ernie, it shouldn't be required. This is a scientific process, a test to find the origin of the issue. If there is something wrong with the catalog, we can try to repair it, but the fact is there are many possible causes to such behavior and we have to start somewhere. Here is a more complete list of the steps you can take to counter this kind of issue: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-photoshop. html
    Is everyone here getting a blue screen from the OS? If so, there are much greater problems at hand than it is possible for an application on your computer to cause. Blue Screen errors are caused by hardware issues. Sometimes it is physically faulty parts, but most of the time it is some sort of driver conflict (generally just an old version that needs to be updated). Make sure you have the latest drivers installed for major hardware components, such as your video card. DO NOT rely on your OS to get the current versions of the drivers. Go to the manufacturer's website and download them directly.

  • My incoming mail server stopped working for the 3rd time Help?

    This is the third time my incoming mail server stopped working any suggestions on how to repair this?
    Thank You!

    If Apple replaced the logic board three times for the same issue, and the third board has now broken for the same reason, you may be able to ask Apple for a replacement machine. You're out of warranty, and Apple is under no obligation to do anything for you (unless the current logic board was replaced by Apple less than 90 days ago in which case it's still under warranty), however, as a good will gesture, they may be willing to exchange your system for another one. You can start at the Apple store or call Apple customer care directly.

  • My elements 7 organizer "stopped working" how do I fix this?

    My Photoshop elements 7 Organizer "stopped working".  How do I fix this?

    I see that you responded to a previous post about this error that you're trying to follow the suggested fixes and do not know what your <username> is.
    It is the name in the screen you use when you log on to Windows.  You can also find it by opening Windows Explorer, expanding the "Local Disk (C:)" folder, expanding the "Users" folder and seeing the name of the folder listed below the "Administrator" folder.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working... how can I make it work?

    Hi.  I have just bought a new copy of Photoshop Element 9.  It installed OK, but when I try to open the Editor, I get the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem", followed shortly by the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available".  The only option then is Close Program.  The Organizer has the same problem.
    Does anyone know how to get it to work?  It hasn't just stopped working, it has never worked at all.  If anyone at Adobe are monitoring this thread, please can you tell me what the problem is and how to sort it out?  I tried the Adobe call-back service but all I got was a computer phoning me up, and no person available.

    Hi,
    Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
    Solution 1:
    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 4:
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.

  • "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working"...message

    I am very very very new to this...and have had so much trouble I'm ready to ask for a refund!  After installing and watching tutorials and not being able to load any pictures to the 'organizer'...(my autoplay does not show the "Organize and Edit Photos" or show the Photo Downloader...I finally called Customer Service.  He told me I needed to uninstal and reinstall.  Ok..I've done that.  But it's still not on Autoplay.  At least he showed me where the file menu is on the 'organizer', so I could get some pictures in there.  But when I click on 'Edit Photos', I get the pop-up message, "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working"....It never HAS worked....This thing just came out of the box today and has too many problems for a newby like me.  What is the problem?  Actually, there are the two problems.  HELP!

    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  9\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works. Let me know if you have any comments.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 has stopped working

    I cannot get my elements to work.  The following message pops up when I go to the front "editor" page:
      "Photoshop Elements 12 has stopped working".
    It's urgent that Elements works now - I don't have time to troubleshoot while I am editing 4,000 photos
    Thank you,
    Catherine

    This is the only way I have found to use PSE-12 since the "Stopped Working" problem appeared;  Perhaps Adobe can use this work-around to solve the problem:
    1. Press Shift and hold (until thumbnails appear).
    2. Open Photoshop Elements 12 (PSE)
    3. Select "My Catalog" or what you call it. (Note: I have PSE open Organizer directly.  I have 2 catalogs, My Catalog and Selling.)
    4. If you have 2 catalogs you must open "My Catalog" first.
    5. When the thumbnails appear you can release the Shift key.  You are in business.
    6.  To open the other catalog use File/Manage Catalogs, Select the other catalog and click Open. (Note:  If you open the secondary/other catalog first PSE will stop working.)
    This is a little more work to get started but I have been using it for 2-3 weeks now without the "Stopped Working" occurring.  Good Luck.

  • Elements 11 organizer stops working

    My elements 11 organizer stops working (not responding message)  or is very slow that is when it does'nt blue screen my PC. If I am doing anything else my PC runs fine but as soon as I try to open elements it crashes. I have tried running elements with XP which makes it worse but even with windows 7 which it used to run ok with is having these problem.  I have run virus scans,updates and anything else I can do to try and help element run properly. Please can anyone help as this is getting very frustrating.

  • Vista 64-bit issues "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working"

    I recently purchased Elements 8 and to this point have been unable to use the editor function.  I can "Organize" without complaint but when I attempt to edit a photo I get a message telling me that "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working."  I have attempted to uninstall and re-install and the result has been the same.  While researching online I see that there are a number of people that have this issue but have been unable to find any real solution.  Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the PSE Editor might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash.   Here are some steps you can take to try to fix the problem:

    It's very likely that your issues are unrelated to the fact that you're running on 64-bit Vista as opposed to 32-bit Vista.

  • Error message - photoshop elements editor has stopped working

    Hi - I've installed photoshop elements 8 twice, and I still get the error message "photoshop elements editor has stopped working" .  I can't seem to get beyond this point.  My system is Windows Vista.  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks

    I suddenly started getting the same error message and was reaching my wits end in trying to find a solution.
    This may sound bizarre, and you may not have the same situation as I found, but check your system/Windows date setting.
    Somehow, the year on my system had become 2096. I corrected it, and bingo! PSE 8 Editor works again.

    After Photoshop Elements quit working for the second time in three months, I uninstalled it and now cannot get it to reinstall from the disc. Nothing happens when I insert the disc. All I can do is look at the folders and files and see nothing that tells me how to start the installation.
