My Photoshop Elements 12 has stopped working. How can I correct?

My photoshop Elements has stopped working.  How do I correct?@

This seems to be a big problem judging from the number of posts.
I have elements 12 (previously 10) bought with a Premiere Elements package. This installed and worked well.
My machine unfortunatley crahed and I had to do a system restore (from before Elemnets 12 wasw installed).
Never mind - all other programmes re-installed OK
Re-intalled elements package and Premiere Works - Organiser Works - but Elements will not load.........
Tried unintalling and re-installing - switching off McAfee on install  - remaning SLStore to SLStoreOld (in programme files as suggested on one post) all to no avail....
The funny thing is - having pinned the exe to the taskbar (Windows 7 Pro 64bit) - right click shows the last old images I worked on before the re-intall.
It sounds like a licence issue.
I cannot face hours in a support queue - Has Adobe resolved this yet????
If not my only choice will be to move away from Adobe to get a programme that will actually launch!!!!!
Any one with any answers to thsi much asked question? - Or at least any suggestions????
Thanks

    how can i resolve it?

    Maybe you could tell us what you already have tried and when this error shows up.
    Besides that message, do you get any other information about the crash in your screen?
    I guess you're on Windows, don't believe that Apple computers show this type of error message.
    Running as administrator, or other compatibility settings could solve your problem.

    Could be the installer failed to set the correct permissions on the two folders in your user profile where the prefs are written. If you log in on the PC using a different user account, does ID work?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Troubleshooting_Editor_cra shes
    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.

  • HT1338 built in camera has stopped working, how can I update or reinstall the drivers

    Built in camera has stopped working, how can I reinstall the respective drivers?

    Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem, Stephen:
    •  If you have not already done so, shut down Mac, restart,
        and try again.  If the camera still does not work, continue.
    • Try ALL relevant suggestions from Apple's Troubleshooting
       article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    (Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
       If you need to use the "reset" suggestion, use the correct reset for your Mac.
    • Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the latest Combo Update.  For your Mac OS,
       the current version is at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera.
    • If nothing else resolves your problem, yours is likely a hardware issue.
       Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
    Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
    "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."

On opening the package either from the start or through an image, the software opens and the tools load, however a message then appears.
