Photoshop 9 Starting Issues

Everytime I try to open pse 9 it says that there is a problem and it will notify me of a solution if available, which it has not. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program. Please help me out.

Lets's try to by-pass the welcome screen, and open the Editor directly from the desktop.
Open Windows Explorer
Go to C>Program Files (x86)>Adobe>PhotoshopElements9.
Right click on that, then Send to desktop (create shortcut)
Double click the desktop icon to see if it will open.

  • Can Photoshop Starter Editor 3.0 run as a server application

    Can Photoshop Starter Editor 3.0 run as a server application and be accessed by more then one computer simultaniously? If this is in breach of the license agreement, where can I find more information on this ?
    If this program cant perform as a server app. is Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 able to operate as a server app. ?

    Okay Tom...
    Now these may be things that people have already discussed in the forum, so
    you'll have to pardon me if you already know this.
    You CAN use the database on the server and put the application on the client
    computer. PSE prevents multiple accesses to the same database so that will
    avoid any conflict issues, however you would still need to contact Adobe
    about licencing. Further with PSE 4.0 out now... you are looking at another
    application.
    I'll see what Picassa can do, but I would NOT hold my breath... and while it
    is a handy little app, for me it is FAR too limited for anything more than a
    quick search and some very basic tools.
    I'll see what I can do in the next 20 minutes or so and get back to you.
    Cheers

  • Adobe Photoshop Starter edition

    How do I deselect all photos in Adobe Photoshop Starter edition in order to make a selection?

    > can you open raw file with this software if not what do you do to open them
    No, PSA SE does not have RAW support. As free software, it is intended for beginners with digital imaging, for whom RAW is not an issue.
    You probably received some software with your camera. Another options is to buy Photoshop Elements, which does have RAW support. Just one note: every make of camera [and even different models] has its own RAW format - you might want to check that your specific one is supported.

  • Photoshop starts up when opeinng podcasts

    I have a 5th gen iPod with video 30GB. I have found that when I try to open the podcast window on iTunes that the Photoshop Starter Album 3.0 program then opens automatically and tries to retrieve photos from the iPod. I do not have my iPod settings to sync photos turned on and can not figure out how to keep the Adobe program from opening automatically and trying to retrieve these photos. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks, dude
    I did try that webpage ( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856 ), and did up to this step:
    Remove iTunes Preference files
    Some of the files that iTunes uses to store settings and preferences may be corrupt and cause issues. iTunes has two folders where preferences are saved. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The location for the two preference folders are:
    * C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes
    It now seems to be working +at least for the moment.+
    I'm not sure how long the fix will actually work for, though...
    I'll post again in a bit of time if it works or not.

  • Bridge/Photoshop Colour Issues

    Bridge/ Photoshop Colour Issues:
      It appears that there are a few pictures that are noticeably dull, when I load them in Bridge and Photoshop.   Those same pictures are very vibrant when I look at them directly from the SD card or load them into Picassa.  I tried editing the picture, saving it in Photoshop, then opening it up in Picassa and it has the same dullness.  Since having this issue, I have updated the drivers on my Quadro graphics card, but I think it may be something to do with the way that I set up Adobe Bridge, because this is the first time I have imported a large batch of photos from Bridge.  However, I pretty much left everything as the standard settings in Bridge.  Any suggestions?
      FYI - I just started using the Adobe Master Collection, with Win 7 Pro 64 and Huey Pro embedded on my laptop. My colour settings are Huey Pro on my laptop, SRGB in Photoshop and General Purpose for Bridge (I haven’t had this issue before and Huey Pro has been my colour settings on my laptop since I got Adobe).

    That turns off color management in Photoshop, so yes, that would match other applications that aren't color managed at all. You're not fixing the problem, you're just hiding the symptom.
    If you're certain the Photoshop version is wrong, that means your monitor profile is corrupt. A corrupt monitor profile only affects color managed software like Photoshop. Other applications don't use the monitor profile and never touch it.
    If it's merely the fact that Photoshop is different, that's normal and all as it should be. With a valid monitor profile Photoshop is right and the others wrong.

  • 10.7.4 huge photoshop performance issues

    I've had variants of three different versions of Photoshop installed - CS4, 5 and now 6. I'm not 100% sure when the issue
    started occurring, but I've done a lot of experimentation to analyze it.
    The components involved are
    1.Photoshop
    2.Wacom Intuos 3
    3.Lion 10.7.4
    Whenever I'm digital painting, which I'm doing professionally, all the time, the colour picking mechanism is not only slow, but doesn't work about 2/3 of the
    time. The next stroke made *after* the colour picking never works either. I do this about ONCE EVERY TWO SECONDS. So it's like being punched
    in the face all day long while you're trying to get some work done.
    Most likely, support staff will attempt to get rid of me saying 'ask wacom' or 'ask adobe.' BUT, here's the process I've gone through.
    1.Tried all three variants of photoshop. They all have issues.
    2.Switched to a different Wacom tablet (identical model), switched three different wacom pens, all identical models. Note that I also
    tested all of these on a Windows machine with the same Photoshop issue, and they all work. And I also tested them all, and photoshop,
    on my old intel powerbook running the same version of Photoshop, and it's fine. That Mac is running Leopard.
    3.I erased my HD, reinstalled Lion (10.7.4 obviously) and installed Photoshop and the Wacom drivers on top of it again. Just one version,
    nothing else to mess with it. Aaaaand, exactly the same issue.
    This has made my Mac unusable and frankly, is having a massive financial impact on me . If anyone can think of anything I've left out, please
    give it a shot. My instinct is that this has narrowed it down to the operating system, and that it's most likely something to do with the GPU. Or the USB bus. Or the application support libraries - but specific to this hardware as, like i say, I've tried another mac with leopard and all is fine.
    HEEEEELP!

    I am having serious Photoshop performance issues as well.
    My Photoshop CS5 was running well until I upgraded to Mac OS 10.7.4. My observations are highly un-scientific, but I am noticing the worst performance in Photoshop when I have my Firefox browser open. It's like the 2 programs are fighting with each other. I am also noticing Flash crash reports on Firefox when Photoshop is open.
    Even with Firefox closed, however, Photoshop CS5 is sluggish and slow with 10.7.4. Even the dreaded beachball coming back into my life.
    I have even erased my hardrive and reinstalled the OS and that did not help.
    Other programs are running fine. Even Firefox runs well when photoshop is not running.

  • Is there a way to open Adobe Camera Raw without Photoshop starting?

    Is there a way to start up Adobe Camera Raw without Photoshop starting?  I think in the past it started without Photoshop starting; or did it?

    If you select the image in Adobe Bridge you can choose File > Open in Camera Raw. Adobe Camera Raw will open the image using Bridge as the host application and you won't have to start Photoshop. There's no way to open Camera Raw without a host application.
    If you can't find Adobe Bridge on your computer and you are a Creative Cloud subscriber, Bridge is one of the programs you can install using the Creative Cloud application.

  • Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

    Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

    Ok, look at your files in Photoshop. What is the profile assigned to them? You can find this out by going to the Status bar at the bottom, clicking on the right-pointing triangle and choosing document Profile from the list.
    Then in Windows, go to your Control Panel > Color Management and add sRGB (if it isn't there) and select it as your default profile.
    I hope that will work.

  • Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition 3

    I keep getting asked to register my Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition 3. I did this years ago. I tried an old unlock code but this doesn't work. Can you help me as I cannot access photos etc.

    Jim,
    Many thanks. But, yes, I have done all that several times. Worse still when I load the Photoshop to my laptop all works just fine. Yet both are on up to date XP. I have a Dell p.c. and a Toshiba laptop. Maybe all this is hardware related? Or else I have some Windows corruption on my p.c. But I don't think so as other people are reporting the same problem as I have.
    Do you know if there is a way I can ask Adobe directly?
    Regards
    Andy

  • Photoshop Starter Edition 3.0

    Hello, I've just joined the Forums. I have Photoshop Starter Edition 3.0.: I am using Windows XP Prof. with SP2 installed. I have a mobile phone Sony Ericsson P900. I am unable to have my phone "Recognised" by the Photoshop programme. I can get photos from my Digital Camera, but cannot get them from the phone. The only options from the drop down window, in Photoshop are:- Creative Web Cam / hp psc 1310 series TWAIN / <Refresh List> / Select a Device.<br />Any advice will be gratefully received!<br />Thanks,Colin

    Colin,
    I`ve just been looking at an advert for the Sony Ericsson P900. That`s quite a phone, and I can understand why you would like to transfer pics straight from it to PA3 without going round the houses.
    If you still havn`t managed to crack this, there may be another novel way of getting pics straight from your phone. Well kinda straight from your phone.
    I`ve got an old Motorola camera phone without any kind of lead to connect it to a PC, and while out searching the shops for a solution, I discovered that you can get from the likes of PC World, a small blue tooth "dongle", costing about £15, that plugs into a USB socket, and transfers the pics on your phone to your PC via bluetooth. I`m fairly confident a phone like yours will have Bluetooth.
    I didn`t actually bother, as the camera in my old phone isn`t very good.
    The only thing to find out of course, is will PA3 recognize the hardware plugged into the USB. Its possible, because these gadgets are made for transfering pics.
    Chances are you already know about this technology, but if you don`t, it may be worth investigating. Besides, it`s great fun trying to crack a problem, and if you are anything like me, you`ll hate to admit defeat.
    Finally, Windows should recognize the hardware, and you can find it by going to file/get photos/by searching.. Then in the "look in:" dropdown menu, select "browse" then "My Computer". Maybe you`ve already tried searching this way to find your camera phone. Anyway, good luck.
    Regards

  • PhotoShop Starter Ed 3.2

    I am trying to remove Photoshop Starter Edition 3.2, and just use Elements.  I have tried to remove it in Add/remove Programs.  It tells me This action is only valid for products that are currently installed.  I then registered the eddition that I have, got the unlock code from adobe, and entered it.  I still cannot delete it. 
    I don’t\’t mind keeping it, it just asks every time that I open a photo to accept the licence agreement.  This is getting some what old.  How can I remove it, or disable the program?  Thank you inadvance,
    JT

    Hey,
    You cannot recover from deleted files. In case they are anywhere in your hard disk, you can easily recover them, but as what you see is just the thumbnail, it wont be of any help, trying recovering them from the catalog, which in any case is not in a readable format.
