Open dialog crashing in Photoshop Elements 11 (Mac OS X Mountain Lion)

I downloaded the trial for Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac. I'm using Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4).
In the File > Open dialog, if I touch either of the two pop-up menus at the bottom of the dialog, Photoshop Elements crashes. This is 100% consistent and reproducible.
This means I'm having a bit of trouble getting started at all. Mac users (10.8.4), can you confirm / deny this issue? Thx.
Oh, by the way, exactly the same thing happens with the pop-up menu in the Save dialog. So if I want to set the image format to save in, I crash.

Fixed the crash! Unfortunately I'm a bit hazy on the details. The key move was telling TinkerTool to revert to all defaults. But as to exactly which setting was triggering the issue, I'm not sure. I've restored a lot of my TinkerTool settings and the crash has not returned. So clearly I have not yet hit on the crucial one.
The key observation here was that the crash was not occurring in a new clean user account. So evidently there was something about my primary user account that was essential to the crash. That started me on a long slow process of testing...

Photoshop Elements 8 compatible with Mountain Lion?

Adobe Reader XI crashes reading watermarked files (Mac OS X Mountain Lion)

Adobe Reader 11.0.06
Mac OS X 10.8.5
I own several of the old Marvel Comics licensed DVD-ROM sets, which use watermarked PDFs for copyright protection (I own and still have physical access to the actual DVDs).
I can open these in Adobe Reader XI just fine, and the first pages display without the watermark, but it won't get more than a few pages in before crashing. I cannot detect a particular pattern to when it crashes, but I can't get through a single story :-(
Has anyone gotten watermarked files to work in Reader XI? I have been able to download Reader 9 and it still seems to work, but clearly staying on a many-years-old software release is not a sustainable solution (I have no idea if it will still work if I upgrade to Mavericks, for instance).

I'm not sure. Depending on which DVD I'm looking at they require either Reader 6.0 or 7.0 to avoid showing the watermark. The readme files don't say anything specific about DRM, just the watermark and the minimum version requirements. They work fine offline. And they're totally openable/readable in Preview, there's just a MARVEL watermark across the middle that's just annoying enough to be distracting.
Looking at one of them in Reader 9, under security I see the following in case it helps:
Allowed: Printing; Content Copying for Accessibility
Not Allowed: Document Assembly; Content Copying; Page Extraction; Commenting; Filling of form fields; Signing; Creation of Template Pages
thanks for the reply!

Opening raw images in Photoshop Elements 9

When opening raw images in Photoshop Elements 9 (File -> Open or File -> Open As), the Adobe Camera Raw dialog do not open.
Instead I get a window with a progress bar and the text "Reading Camera Raw Format".
The image then opens in the Photoshop Elements editor.
I have tested this with raw images both from Canon EOS 1000D and Samsung WB2000 cameras.
I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this issue.
I run Photoshop Elements on a HP netbook running Widows XP and with an Intel Atom N450 / 1.66 GHz processor, 2 GB ram and a screen resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.

Unfortunately you can't see the raw converter in PSE 9 on screens less than 800 px tall, which means not on netbooks. PSE will automatically convert it for you, but that dialog box and a few others, like the Advanced Downloader window, will not appear.

After opening a picture in Photoshop Elements 12 how can I copy the picture to a word processor docu

After opening a picture in Photoshop Elements 12, how can I copy this picture to a word processor document?

Open the photo. Press ctrl+A (command+A on a mac) to select it, then Ctrl+C (command+C) to copy it. Go to your word processing document and press Ctrl+V (command+V) to paste it in. (Note that for the last step the procedure may vary slightly depending on your word processor.)

Organizer crashing in Photoshop Elements 10

Why are so many people having the Organizer crash in Photoshop Elements 10 and does anyone actually have a solution to the problem?

Just like every other application in the world, there are about a hundred different and unique situations where the Organizer crashes. The broad categories for why any application (including the Organizer) crashes are:
1. Interfering background/foreground applications
--Test: try runnning the software with all other background/foreground applications closed.
--Solution: Find the interfering application. If you don't need/use it, remove it from the computer. Otherwise, upgrade it to the latest version to help eliminate conflicts. Or don't run it while running the application in question.
--Document: Disable startup items, services | Windows (Mac users should run in Safe Boot to accomplish the same)
2. User account settings/permissions
--Test: create a new user account, log into it, run the application.
--Solution: There are a number of settings that are unique to your each user account. Some are tied to individual applications, some are system wide. However, we cannot dictate the full spectrum of personalization that happens per account.
--Document: Troubleshoot unexpected behavior | User account-specific | Adobe software | Windows 7, Vista
Troubleshoot unexpected behavior | User account-specific | Adobe software | Mac OS
3. User files
--Test: new blank files. In the case of Elements Organizer, this would be a new, blank catalog (File > Catalog > New)
--Solution: Try repairing your catalog (File > Catalog > Repair). The issue could also be tied to a file or files you've recently imported (i.e. around the time the crashing behavior began).
--Document: Troubleshoot catalog issues | Organizer | Elements 6 and later
4. Hardware conflicts
--Test: hardware is extremely difficult to test, and is also the least likely source of most issues.
--Solution: Make sure the drivers for your hardware are current, as downloaded and installed from the manufacturer's web site.
5. Other
--There are still other possible causes. Computers are very complex machines, so much so that each one as is as unique as your own fingerprint. Unless there is a bug in the application (i.e. the program crashes when you take steps x, y, z but otherwise operates correctly), there is going to be a unique solution to your particular issue.

Photoshop elements 5.0 on mac OS X mountain lion?

Is it possible to install photoshop elements 5.0 on my mac OS X mountain lion? I found a cd with photoshop elements 5.0 on which it said mac but when i tried to install it, some kind of error showed on the screen, but it was only after a little while.

No way. This would require PPC code which Apple long have removed from OSX.

Hi Nealeh
Thanks i think I got it working of a fashion.
Except the replace colour, does not seem to end up with the colour I picked using the picker tool. Its as though it hads not replaced the colour but blended in the desired colour with the old incorrect colour!
Buy trial and error picking not the right colour but close - which when mixed with the existing colour is close.
Sorry I can't post the pictures as the Lingerie Mfg, has me under non disclosure.
The scenario is:- say a blonded mainly tanned model a high cut [at the hips] corsette style basque, with an ultra low bra line.
Our dear model, has just come back from St Barts with a fabulous Tan, and equally striking bold Tan lines!.
So we have great tanned legs, then the 'porcelain white band' where her swimsuit was.
Likewise we have a tanned face, and arms, shoulders etc and a great tan on the top of the cleavage, then it stops, white band to the top of the ultralow cut bra line of the basque.
She must have lived in like the most conservative bikini on the planet [50's style], for 2 weeks!
Had she had a normal skimpy bikini on, no problem!
If i don't solve it, she will get fired!
Not a lack of interest in your post, but I was out, and tried to log in to this site; which I could do, on my iPad Air / 5 [whatever its the new one]. And tried to 'sign in' - but it just hung at the
"Join Adobe Community" adobe sign in splash screen! with he little whell spinning around continuously!!!
I have Safari on this iPad. Guess that is all it runs.
So technology is not my friend today!

I cannot open PDF files in Photoshop Elements as it is asking for a PDF Password?

Is it possible that the creator of the files set a password? That's usually the only time PSE asks for one, although you may be able to open the file just fine in a pdf program that isn't password-aware.

If the app is designed correctly, the no, you won't. However, you'd have to ask the people who wrote the software, Adobe.
