    SE didn't delete the Windows Picture and FAX viewer, but by just deleting it, you've left a configuration problem behind.
    I'd suggest re-installing the latest version of SE that can be found here:

    and then following the instructions that can be found here:

  • Initialize Model - Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 Will Not Load

    I have a Dell Dimension E510, running Windows XP and I just downloaded Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. It install successfully, but when I go to launch the program it freezes and in the bottom left hand corner of the Adobe Launcher window it states "Initialize Model".
    The program never finishes loading and does not work on my machine.
    Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

    I finally gave up. I got no reponse in this forum or from Adobe.
    I literally restored my entire computer back to its original state and guess what... SAME ANNOYING THING HAPPENED "Initialize Model" then FREEZE...
    I went out and bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 at Costco for $49.00 on sale and it works great and actually a much superior product. My heart skipped a beat when it got to Initializing Model, but it went right by and worked fine.
    I understand Album Starter is freeware, but why even release a product even for free if it just doesn't work.
    So far no problems with Elements and although I had to shell out $49.00 at least now I have a supported product.

  • I do not wish to use Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2

    How do I retrieve all of my photos and replace them back into "My Pictures"?

    Hey Anita,
    Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition is not a software that stores images but it rather stores their location in a catalog. So you can uninstall the application if you don't want to use it further and your images will remain in the locations they were already in.

  • Storing Notes with Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3

    I am new to Photoshop Album Starter Edition and was working with it yesterday to catalog some old family photos that I had scanned. When I was cataloging the photos, I added a caption and notes for each photo under the properties tab. When I burned the photo files to a CD and loaded the CD to another computer using Photoshop Starter Edition 3, I able to see the caption under properties but there was nothing in the Notes field. I'd like to use the notes field to store comments about the photo and then be able to burn the CD to share with other family members. Is there a way to burn the photos to a CD and be able to see the Notes information?

    Using PSA 3.0 does this also mean that if I move an image to a new directory it loses the notes information and similarly should I rename the file will it will also lose the notes detail but not the caption. I understand why this is, if it is so - ah but here comes the question, "Is there any way to print out the notes detail by images etc to a file or to the printer should the need arise to reuse the information. Say I scan images to a laptop and record "notes information" using PSA 3.0 - how do I get that "notes" information to my desktop should I transfer the photos & use PSA 3.0 there - any help or advice would be most appreciated - are there other Adobe products that address this

  • PhotoShop Album Starter Ed. Interferes with Flash Drives

    I have installed the Adobe PhotoShop Album Starter Edition 3 on a new computer and can no longer use my flash drives for data. The drives no longer appear in Windows Explorer and there is nothing that I can find in the program prefs that will let me turn off the auto launch and import routine that starts every time I insert a flash drive. I have not had this problem on the old computer running the same version of the software and the operating system. I have had to remove the program so that I can regain the use of my flash drives for handling data. Does anyone know the secret to being able to use both PhotoShop album Starter Edition AND flash drives for data? I am running WinXP SP2.
    Thanks for the help,
    Tom Davis

    I observed same problem on my machine many times. I have noticed that we remove flash drive/card reader without using "Safely Remove Hardware" of windows then sometimes windows explorer is not able recognize the card reader/flash drive.
    For this, I would suggest you to click on device hardware icon in the system tray and select "Safely Remove Hardware" and then click [Stop] in the next window. Then windows will tell you if device is busy or safe to remove.
    Using this , I am no longer observing problem of card reader not being recognized. Hope this helps!

  • Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition  vs.  Picasa?

    Hi everyone..
    I have just installed Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 and I'm wondering about a few things. Bear with me here...
    1. I use Piccasa strictly as a picture-viewer program. I'm not 100% happy with it, could anybody pursuade me and my curious friend, why I should switch to Album Starter? I would like that.
    2. What I DO like about Piccasa is that it just view my pictures and do not copy them into a special piccasa-format. I have several file-formats in my picture-folder and I would like Album Starter to view all of them without changing the original location of the file, nor copy it, taking up a lot of disk-space.
    3. Another thing I like about Picasa is that if I have changed, added or removed a picture in the original file-location it updates those changes when I launch the program.
    4. I understand that there are several ways to view your photos. But can you also view and navigate your pictures through folders while you are in Album Starter? Because thats one thing I hate about Picasa, it just place all my folders on the side of the page, meaning it takes them out of their original folder and destroys the dept-folder-system I have made.
    5. Does Album Starter have a nice search function?
    If anyone could take the time to answer these very bad formulated questions, I would be very grateful.
    - C.C.

    1) PSA SE has better organizing tools [tags/collections] than Picassa. There is also a clear growth path if you want something more powerful [Photoshop Elements Organizer is compatible].
    2) With PSA SE you keep your image files anywhere you want.
    3) PSA SE has limitations in this area. You are encouraged to move files about from within the program.
    4) I'm not sure that you'd prefer PSA SE in this respect. You are really encouraged not to think in terms of folders, as that is not a way to organize a large collection of images [say much more than 100].
    5) It has various ways to search - what are you after? Using tagging intelligently means you very rarely need to search. [I have use this technology for 3 years and only used Search a handful of time.]

    It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
    If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
    The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
    Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
    If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
    Hope those tips help!

  • Lr cannot read Catalog .psa (Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2)

    Hello,
    I use Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 to manage my 12'000 photos (with tags) and I'll move to Lightroom. But I cannot import the catalog .psa into Lr2.3.
    Lr can read only catalog .lrcat, .lrdb, and .aglib !
    I renamed catalog .psa to catalog .aglib etc. but nothing happenend.
    My idea, I will :
    1. Install PSE 7,
    2. read catalog .psa (is it possible?)
    3. export into catalog .lrcat, .lrdb, or .aglib (is it possible?)
    4.then  import with Lr with all the tags
    Is there someting easyer to do ?
    My brain is boiling :-\
    Thank you
    Tennistin

    PSE7 should be able to convert your catalog. I don't really know, as I haven't tried and haven't read about converting PSA Starter Edition catalogs, but I am optimistic.
    The problem is that the current version of Lightroom will not read PSE7 catalogs. Probably when Lightroom 3 comes out, it will read PSE7 catalogs. So, I would search the Internet to see if the trial version of PSE6 or PSE5 is available somewhere for download. If you can find one of those versions, they will convert your PSA catalog as well. Lightroom definitely does convert PSE5 and PSE6 catalogs.

  • Photoshop album starter edition 3.2 and kodak camera

    I have a kodak m753 digital camera and adobe photoshop album starter edition 3.2 says device not found. how do i get it to recognize the camera without deleting the kodak software. I have windows xp if that helps.

    the camera is attached using a usb cable. windows explorer? do you mean internet explorer? i can look at the pictures in the kodak software it recognizes the camera but adobe doesn't. In order to get the pictures into adobe takes jumping through hoops. I prefer to use adobe because it is easier to get photos into emails etc. I just can't get them from the camera to adobe directly. I think the kodak software overrides adobe. Even if i shut down the kodak software adobe will not recognize that i have a camera connected to the computer. When i look in the folder called cameras and scanners it too doesn't list the camera. when i tried installing the camera it allways asks for the disc (which includes the kodak software)

  • Migration of Photoshop Album Starter Edition 2.0 to new PC ?

    With 12.000 pictures classified and carefully  tagged in Photoshop Album starter 2.0 on a PC running Windows Xp, I'm now migrating to a new PC running Windows7.
    Installing the software and all pictures was easy, but there are no tag anymore !!
    To keep those tags ( a lot of days of work ), would it be effective to upgrade on my old PC to Photoshop Elements, and after, migrate on the new one Photoshop Elements ? Is it safe to upgrade to Elements ( won't I loose, not my pictures, but my tags ) ? Will Elements create files with the tags, so I can easily copy and migrtae those ?
    Many thanks for help

    Thank you Mark ,
    This is a very quick and complete answer and I was lucky enough to be able to download the needed software.
    Unfortunately, when I tried to upgrade Phtoshop Album Starter Edition 2.0 to 3.2, it says that the tags will be kept ( saved ), but when opening 3.2, all pictures are there, but no tag at all ....
    Is there anything else ( or more ) I could try to recover those tags ?
    Thank you for your help.

  • Import settings from Photoshop Album Starter, to Photoshop elements 10?

    Basically I am upgrading a computer from XP to Win7.
    She had all her data organized in Adobe Photoshop Album Starter.
    It saved all her pictures but did not organize them (out of the program).
    I was wondering if there was a way to export the folder/organization system from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter, into Photoshop Elements 10?
    Or does she have to go through all her pictures again, and re-organize them?
    Any and all help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    David Allen,
    B&I Computer Systems.

    I am curious
    Is PS Album 2 running on a Windows XP PC ? Does PS Album run normally ?
    PSE 4 on the same PC ?
    Is PSE 9 running on the same computer as Photoshop Album 2 ?
    Or perhaps is PSE 9 running on a new computer with Windows 7 ?
    For PS Album 2, in addition to doing the repair of the Catalog (which you  have done), you should not have any disconnected files when you attempt a catalog upgrade. In PS Album 2, look for a command to Reconnect All Missing Files -- it may be under the File menu.  Run that command.
    Here is a reference to a discussion of problems upgrading catalogs

    I suggest that you read it for general background and specifically I suggest that you read the comments about identifying a "poisin" video file

  • Transfer tags from Photoshop Album Starter Edition to other Photoshop products?

    Here's a scenario for you, which might require some expert advise:
    We have a database (on a network server) with ~6000 pictures which are extensively tagged using Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 installed on a client PC. The client PC had to be swapped out, so I installed a new PC with Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, and moved the tag database (....\All Users\bla bla bla) from the old to the new PC. Now, when I start Photoshop Album Starter Edition, I can see that the software has found my images and tags, but the software displays a pop-up asking for an unlock-code, and I cannot get past this popup.  When registering using the form in the popup, I receive an email from Adobe saying that the product is discontinued and cannot be used anymore. I have Googled like a maniac to find unlock codes, but when entering such codes in the unlock code window, the "unlock"-button stays disabled, so I am not able to start the software to access our image- and tags database.
    So I wonder:
    1) Is it possible to unlock the software and continue using it?
    2) Does any other version/variant of Adobe Photoshop allow import of the tags database from Photoshop Album Starter Edition?
    Looking forward to your clever ideas on this one.
    With kind regards
    /Nils

  • Printing problems with Photoshop Album Starter Ed. 3.2 (Viewer)

    Everytime I try to print a picture associated with Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 (Viewer) I get an error message saying it has "encountered a problem and needs to close."  I will post the additional information it gives below.  Can anyone please help!!  Thank you very much!  SCH
    Error Signature:
    AppName: componentlauncher.exe      AppVer: 3.2.0.12228      ModName: print.dll
    Technical Information about the error report:  ......I can't get this information to copy and paste
    ModVer: 3.2.0.12228      Offset: 0001321d

    I would normally say reinstall, but since the program has been discontinued, and if you don't have your registration serial number, then the program will not unlock after 30 uses.
    You could simply NOT print from the viewer, and print from within the program.
    Or, you could have another program take over as the default viewer for jpeg files, and utilize another viewer (like Windows Picture and Fax viewer); instructions for changing here: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-xp/change-windows-default-picture-viewer/
