New install of Photoshop elements for Mac 6

I have the downloaded trial version on my new Mac. I now want to install the copy I bought. When I do so the first thing I get is an error message.
JavaScript Alert
Critical errors were found in setup Incompatible payload already installed Please see Setup log file for details.
Can someone help me fix this problem. It is very frustrating.
Thanks,
Karen

You should have run the uninstaller from the download for the trial. At this point, get rid of as much stuff as you can find (don't forget to check hard drive>library>application support), then download and run this:

before trying the retail installer again.

Photoshop Elements for Mac - Three Versions Installed

Hi there,
I'm cleaning up stuff on my iMac and find I have three purchased versions of PhotoShop Elements for Mac installed, V4, V6 and now V8. Can I safely remove the old V4 and V6 versions without them affecting anything in V8?
Also, there are other versions of related software, such as Adobe Bridge, then Adobe Bridge CS3 and CS4. Can the original and CS4 versions be removed.
What else might have multiple versions relating to Photoshop Elements?
Can I remove these by simply deleting them from the Applications or is there a process which needs to be followed, i.e., an Uninstall?
Guidance much appreciated.
Lynn

"Never delete anything, just buy a bigger hard drive"!
After I admit to being "slightly eccentric", let me say I don't know why you even need to uninstall any of them. The only caveat there is you can't run two versions simultaneously. I have PSE- 5 & 7 installed on one of my computers, and I import the same file into both catalogs, while duplicating the folders on a separate HDD also. You can never be to sure, or is that too insecure, I'm not really sure.

Photoshop Elements for Mac OSX 10.5.6 Version?

I'm confused. Is there an Elements for Mac in Version 7. I called the sales line and they told me that for a Mac I would choose Version 6 for Mac??? Is Version 7 for Windows equal to Version 6 for Mac?
Thanks!

Yes, there is no version 7 for mac, but it doesn't really matter, since most of the changes between 6 and 7 were bug fixes in the organizer and the push to use photoshop.com. In the editor, there aren't huge differences between the two programs, just a couple of new tools. For 10.5.6 PSE 6 is the one you want, especially if you have an intel mac.

Choosing paper type in Photoshop Elements for mac

How do I select paper type in PS elements for Mac OS Lion 10.7?

You do this in the OS X print window that appears after you click Print in the PSE print window. You may need to expand the window by clicking the Show Details button, and then you'll see a pulldown menu in the middle of the window where you make your choices for paper, ink, etc.

Photoshop elements for Mac (snow leopard)

Hi all. I recently upgraded my computer to a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. Previously i had a windows running acer. Just before my acer crashed i bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. Unfortunately this is not compatible with my Mac. I was wondering if there is anyway to get a download which will make it compatible (I don't even know if such things exist) or if i'm able to download a Mac compatible version and use my old serial number? or am i stuck having to fork out to buy another copy? Please help....

this is not the Elements Forum.
but to answer your question Adobe does not make software that will run on both platforms its either or. you will need to buy a Mac version.

Photoshop Elements for Mac

I purchased an HP Printer that came with Adobe Elements 11 bundle. The software is only for Windows. HP referred me to Adobe. Adobe customer service referred me to forums. Any suggestions on how I can get the version for my MAC?

You posted in the Photoshop forum by mistake. I've moved your post to the Elements forum where you are more likely to get help with Elements issues.

Problems with new instalation of Photoshop Elements 12

Windows 7
I have had continual problems with PE 9 with error messages to uninstall and reinstall Error 16.
So I thought buy version 12 that should do the trick BUT NO I uninstalled version 9 and installed 12 from disk on the 20th August.
Updated with Application Manager and all was well. Yesterday will not load and Error 16 as before. Tried run as administrator and was told I needed a newer version of Update Manager. Downloaded and installed version 8 still no joy and this then updated to Adobe Creative Cloud. The Application still will not open and I am getting fed up with Adobe applications, when they work their fine but I have no luck getting them to work long term.
Having bought this I am reluctant to move on and incur the cost of an alternative but I am fast running out of patience with Adobe
Any Hep Would Be Appreciated

Barbara B
Thanks for link. Worked through Windows Vista/7 settings got to Set permissions but no Adobe PCD folder. Uninstalled and reinstalled PE 12 software 5/9, PCD now there and application running OK as was the initial installation.
6/9 on start-up, Creative Cloud identified update for PE 12, Application Manager appeared and I run update, after, application running OK and Adobe PCD still there. Checked settings and permissions against link document permissions not as suggested but application working so made no changes.Will the application continue to work, that’s the next question, from previous experience with the initial installation and with PE 9, I have my doubts.
If the loss of Adobe PCD is the cause of the problem, what makes it disappear ?

Photoshop Elements for Mac - Not responding

I have had PE 12 for about 6 months on my MAC (1.5TB, free, 32 gb ram,) . All has been good. All of a sudden, I cant get the program to work - it just gives me spinning wheel of death.
I DID remove the program via the S/W, and reloaded, and same issue. I cant access the File menu to try and repair the catalog. It just goes to spinning wheel.
I feel like Im sunk ... can anyone help?
Thanks,
Chuck

Ok, thanks so much for your continued patience.
I have repaired permissions, unistalled PE 12, reinstalled under another admin user (seems to go ok - but does not load a library)
I switched users and tried to do a clean backup once PE 12 started under my username - but right after the prompt for revconnecting files - it gave me a spinning wheel.
So i inderstand that my pictures and videos are srtill intact, but Iahve 30,000 + of these tagged and organized to the nines. My photos are like looking for a needle in a haystack without PE.
So I dont know how to proceeed next. Do I delete all catalogs and replace from my most recent backup? Is there any software support Adobe Provides for this type ofd issue? My concern is if I delete my catalogs, and start a new from the backup and the program is the issue (not the catalog) I just fell back another month with my cataloging, importing and tagging.
I've had minor issues before through v2 - v11, but this is killing me.
Thanks Barbara.

An updated photoshop elements for mac?

I just got a mac and found out that the latest update that is available for a mac is PSE6, and was wondering if a PSE7 or PSE8 is coming out that will be mac compatable? thanks

Well, you can forget PSE 7, that's for sure, if Adobe hasn't said anything by now. The past few years they've only been updating the mac version on the even numbered updates, so presumably there's hope for PSE 8, although if they do it's anybody's guess as to when it will come out.

I have just installed Photoshop Elements for a MAC. MY photos were in iPhoto, I have 47,000 pictures and my drive on my Mac laptop is not large enough. I store my photos in iPhoto on an external drive. Can I store all my photos on an external drive when using Photoshop Elements? If so, in what format should they be stored in? I do I move them from iPhoto to the new storage location? How do I call them up in organizer? And how do I call them up to Edit? I do not want to store any pictures on my Apple Mac laptop. I want to store pictures on several external devices.

Yes you can store images on an external hard dive and have them referenced in Organizer. It’s best to export copies to separate folders/subfolders and that will ensure iPhoto does not get corrupted.
Alternatively you could continue to use iPhoto with the Elements Editor set up in the iPhoto prefs as your external editing app. Then there is no need to use Organizer and no need to duplicate your images.
You can then call up photos directly from iPhoto as normal with the additional option e.g.
Double-click on a thumbnail to edit in iPhoto editor.
Control (right) - click on a thumbnail to edit in the elements app.

Installing old Photoshop Elements on a new computer

I have an old version of Photoshop Elements and a new MAC. It was previously installed on my PC which crashed. But the new MAC won't let me install this software - it tells me there is an error with the install.

OK... so this is an OLD version - it is 4.0 (2006). My MAC is running OS X Version 10.8.2. The installation begins and some of the files begin installing then it quits and the message reads: "The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."
Thanks
