Organizer does not open

I have installed Elements 12.  When I start the program I try to open the Organizer.  Nothing happens.  What do I need to do?

Well try this:
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.
If repairing resolves your issue then fine else repeat the above steps, but click New to create a new catalog.  If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works fine, then problem can be old catalog.
try and let me know your comments.

    Organizer has worked for a number of years. Starting today it will not open. Editor does but not organizer.

    Thanks, but repair does not come up as an option

    Dear Sirs,
    I have bought PSE 11 but it doesn't work! Organizer doesn't open normally

    I suspect it may have something to do with your monitor settings. Go to the control panel and check dpi scaling under Appearance or Display.
    It’s not uncommon to see a setting of 125% or higher to improve screen readability but PSE requires a dpi of 96 or 100%
    Whilst the Editor Menu will appear at 120% to 149% the Organizer Menu (and the advanced button in downloader) won’t. Sometimes the mouse or tool cursors are distorted.
    Try a setting of 115% to 120% otherwise use 100%. A common display resolution, notably for notebooks/laptops, and netbooks is 1024 x 768 but PSE requires a screen height of 800 for full functionality. If your height resolution is out of the range 768 to 800 try experimenting with the slider/settings.

  • Elements Organizer does not open. Should I just forget it and use Lightroom?

    I have Elements 11 and reciently instaled Lightroom 5. Elements Organizer no longer opens. Should I be concerned and just use the ghtroom Library?

    Lightroom is more powerful and robust than Organizer. So yes go ahead if you don't need people recognition.
    You can set up te PSE editor as your external editing app in LR preferences and then you can right-click on images in the Library and choose Edit in pse.

  • Photoshop Elements 8.0 Organizer does not open

    Have been using this program for sometime.  Today, under file, I thought I clicked the print photos option.  Then realized I did not want to do that just yet. Another menu had opened and without really looking, I clicked cance.  When I did, elements shut down.  When I tried to reopen, the welcome screen came up with the running bar at the bottom saying "Gathering User Info".  It never really seems to finish.  When I click on the organizer button, the program closes.  After a reboot, I was able to open the organizer by using the "All programs", Photoshop, and then the welcome screen came up with the running bar on the Organizer button as well as at the bottom.  Organizer opened.  I was able to complete my task.  Thought maybe there was an issue with the short cut.  So I closed the program.  Now, can not access Organizer from the short cut or the "All Programs" button.  Is there anything to try before I uninstall and reinstall? And if I need to do so, will my tags still be there when I reinstall?

    Computer was off for few days r/t bad snow storm, power outage and work schdule.  When I booted back up, currently the organizer is working as it should.  Thanks, for reviewing this with me. 

  • Premiere Element 13 The progress bar on the lower right for Indexing has frozen and when asking to open a video file in the organizer, Premiere does not open.

    The above says it all.

    I can't really answer you first question. What has happened is: when I moved an mpg file from my assets to the movie (I have added already a mpg file in the first part of the movie) a message box appears telling me the file is being "indexed" and then this Indexing progress appears in lower right of screen and it processes up to 99% and then freezes. The file appears in the time line, but the frame appears that says "media pending" and then nothing happens. I can go into the Widows media player and the mpg file plays okay, with audio. That is best I can tell you.
    Though I did not say this earlier, when I try to open this mpg file from the Organizer, Premiere does not open.
    My operating system is Windows 7 on a Dell computer with lots of ram and plenty of space on my hard drive.
    Properties of movie file
    These properties are the same as a file I already inserted in the timeline.
    I look forward to your help and thanks..

  • Elements Organizer 13.  The program primary window does not open.

    Good afternoon. I installed Elements Organizer. The first some times it has opened correctly and I managed to transfer all photos. But now the program primary window does not open. In dock the active icon appears, in the left top corner there is a name of the program and having clicked with its right mouse button it is possible to open options. What to do in such situation? Photoshop Elements 13 works correctly, but it is very inconvenient to search for photos.

    I managed to locate the problem
    I have an Elgato EyeTV 610. It is an old DVB-C TV Tuner hooked up on Firewire.
    When I remove the EyeTV 610 from the Firewireport it works fine.
    As mentioned in my first posting I was able to have the import window pop up by attaching my camera.
    The workaround also works when pluggin in my iPhone (Import window pops up automatically)

  • Photoshop Elements 5.0 Organizer suddenly does not open

    I've been using Photoshop Elements 5.0 for over a decade without any problems.  Suddenly, the Organizer will not open.  I can open the Editor but not the Organizer.  What the ---- ????

    Thanks for replying with a potential solution.  When the Welcome Screen comes up, I tried holding down the shift key as I hit the Organizer icon.  That doesn't seem to do anything.  The program starts to load - I see the status comments showing the various steps.  But then nothing happens - nothing opens.  Do you know any other way that I can get to the catalog manager??
    Also - if I reinstall the software or upgrade to the latest version of Elements (in order to fix this problem) will I be able to retain all the tags that I've attached to my photos?  I have thousands of pictures categorized and tagged and it would take me years to try to find and retag all of the pictures.
    Any insight you can provide is much appreciated.

  • What can I do when  in Photoshop Elements (version 11) the organizer does not start up??

    !@@

    Yes, thanks a lot. I understand now.
    I now am able to open the old catalog again!! I tried now several times with the new shortcut.
    Thank you very much indeed for ALL YOUR EFFORT and patients with me.
    You suggest now I should click on the repair button. When I do so, the catalog will be overwritten, or I can choose not to overwrite and than the catalog will be twice as big. So I decided not to click on the repair button. When I see afterwards that some functions do not work anymore, I allways can use the repair button. As far as I can see now nothing is lost.. )
    As far as I understood it is only possible to repair with a backup. Happily I made that allways, but I am afraid to use it, for the reason above.
    When I have more time to spare, I will look for all the foto's from the apps of my cellphone and delete them.
    Now I can finish my fotowork, what I had started before, and make Photoshop Elements again the main fotoprogram on my desktop.
    Thank you again! Trees

  • When I click the Editor, it loads but does not open the Editor page. Options?

    When I click the Editor, it loads but does not open the Editor page. Options?

    Try making separate desktop icons for the Editor and Organizer. You can then launch directly. The standard desktop icon is for the welcome screen which often runs in the background or doesn’t shut down properly.
    Start by right-clicking on the desktop and select:
    New >> Shortcut
    Then browse to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
    Inside the Photoshop Elements 13 folder make sure you select the application (not a shortcut) by scrolling down to the files beginning with the letter P and highlighting ‘PhotoshopElementsEditor’
    Then click next followed by finish.
    You can repeat for the Organizer using the different file path.
    New >> Shortcut
    Then browse to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 13 Organizer
    Highlight ‘PhotoshopElementsOrganizer’
    Then click next, followed by finish.
    Now that you have your separate desktop icons you can delete the one for the welcome screen, if preferred. On Mac try launching directly from Applications. [if not using PSE13 substitute your own version and go to Program Files (x86)]

  • How come photshop elements 13 organizer will not open.

    I have been using element 13 for about a week and last night I tried to open it and the organizer will not open.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled I have shut down all firewall I need some help.  Seems the Adobe does not really have much help.

    First be sure you are opening the actual .exe/application file for the organizer rather than going through the welcome screen. It will be in either the program files>adobe or your Applications folder on a mac. Try holding down the shift key while opening it to bring up the catalog manager. If that works, select your catalog, then Repair, then Optimize.

  • Organizer will not open

    My organizer will not open from my Photoshop Elements 12.  When I click on oganizer from the Photoshop Elements 12 startup window, the program closes down.  I also recently downloaded Premeire Elements 12.  For a few days I was able to open my organizer from the Premiere Elements 12 startup window but now that does not work either.  Help!

    Step 3 - I did not understand this step.  When I press ALT+CTRL+DEL, I get the Window Task Manager screen... so I don't know how I can click on Organizer.  Please advise.
    Sorry clnehl,
    It is not ALT+CTRL+DEL..
    Please press ctrl+shift and it will open Catalog Management dialog in pse 12.
    In the Catalog Manager, select the catalog that you want to repair.
    Click Repair.
    When the Elements Organizer finishes checking your catalog for errors, select Re-index Visual Similarity Data and then click Repair or Repair Anyway.
    This process takes time, especially if you have a large catalog. A dialog notifies you when your catalog is successfully repaired. Click OK to close this dialog.
