Photoshop elements 10 backup won't work

I've used PSE 10 for some time, but only backup about twice a year (full backups to both external drive and dvds stored offsite).  It won't let me backup to my K drive (external), doesn't even start before stating that it has encountered an error writing the file.  The external drive works fine; just backed up using Windows BU.  I've repaired, optimized, and reconnected files to no avail. 
Any ideas?  Thanks!

Thank you for your help.  I was trying to backup my catalog to an external drive.  Are you saying i can't backup to an external hard drive?  I wanted to do two backups: one to an external hard drive and one to dvds that i would store offsite.  I was not trying to copy images because i wanted the whole catalog, including the indexing features of Elements Organizer.  I've determined a way around this is to use disc spanning software (Roxio) that will backup the very large image folders to multiple dvds.  Then, i must be careful to also backup the catalog separately.  The problem with this is only if i need to restore the catalog and images.  I believe i must replace them in the same drive path for the catalog to work correctly, which can be a problem if i am using a different computer for the restore destination. Then, the drive letters may or may not match.  Currently, i have everything on my D drive because it is 2 TB, whereas the default installation is the C drive.  I just wish Organizer did this for me, but i guess it's just not going to work, so i'll use Roxio unless you have another idea.  Thanks again.

  • Help! My adobe photoshop elements 9 won't work when i open it up!

    Help, please! I have a Adobe Photoshop elements 9 and everytime i save a picture then the next day i try to open my save picture it tells me "This product has encountered a problem which requires that you restart your computer before it can be launched.
    If you continue to see this message after restarting your computer, (which i do) Please contact either your IT or adobe tectnical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen

    They told me they couldn't help me with this problem or the chat and phone support doesn't help with people who have Adobe Photoshop elements 9 anymore. What should i do?

    That is a licensing error, it has nothing to do with opening files, just with opening the application. Check our documentation on this error:

  • Photoshop Elements 6 won't work after recovery

    After a system recovery on my HP, the Photoshop Elements 6 program will not reinstall.  All other programs are up and running.  The install from the disk appears to be successful, but I don't get the window to enter the serial number.  When I click on the icon, nothing happens.  Uninstall and reinstall results in same situation.  I have Windows Vista 2007.  Adobe gave it a case #184059543, but will not support it due to it being an "old" program.  Please advise.

    Try running application directly from exe of editor or organizer present in installed location of application.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 won't work and won't uninstall

    I have Photoshop Elements 10 and Windows 8 on a Lenovo g500s i7 laptop. Photoshop will not open. I cannot uninstall it either. The uninstall process stops at the first Installwizard screen which asks me to press next to continue. I have tried various compatibility options and other suggestions that people have previously posted. I would be very glad of any ideas on how I can either restart Photoshop or uninstall it so that i can start again.

    This is a Photoshop not Photoshop Elements user forum.not an Adobe support organization.  If you have an install problem Adobe customer support can help you.  Please go to www.adobe.com to see what support is available for you to use.

    Hi Zach.
    Sorry to say but Elements 12 came out several months before your camera. Adobe stops updating camera raw files for old software editions so that people have to buy new versions of the software when they get a new camera. It happened to me with LR3 when I got a new camera.
    There are works rounds but they are a lot of extra steps and I think you would be converting the files to Some format other than RAW (tiff?) and which I am not sure will perform the same.
    I think you just need to get a newer version of Elements.

  • Photoshop Elements 9 won't update, including camera raw

    I have Elements 9.  It currently has camera raw 6.1.  I need at least 6.3.  I have tried EVERYTHING to download the updates and they don't work and after downloading them, they say they fail.
    Essentially, when I go to "Help" and run the "Updates" provided by Adobe, they all fail.
    I just want to edit my raw photos on my nikon d3100.
    I bought this product, you should provide updates that actually work.  If you tell me that my camera will only work with a product that I yet have to pay $70 for...  I will be ticked.

  • Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1

    Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1. I have downloaded the patch, it is installed but the old version is this there in elements. Thanks, esther

    OK I think the problem is probably related to the platform swap and you may need your account re-set. Only Adobe staff can do that.  You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
    1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
    2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
    It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number and previous case number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working... how can I make it work?

    Hi.  I have just bought a new copy of Photoshop Element 9.  It installed OK, but when I try to open the Editor, I get the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem", followed shortly by the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available".  The only option then is Close Program.  The Organizer has the same problem.
    Does anyone know how to get it to work?  It hasn't just stopped working, it has never worked at all.  If anyone at Adobe are monitoring this thread, please can you tell me what the problem is and how to sort it out?  I tried the Adobe call-back service but all I got was a computer phoning me up, and no person available.

    Hi,
    Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
    Solution 1:
    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 4:
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.

  • Photoshop Elements 6 won't install on my MacBookAir. [was: Adobe Photoshop Elements 6]

    Photoshop Elements 6 won't install on my MacBookAir. It gives a message - contact Adobe Customer Service. The program was bundled with Wacom Bamboo.

    [Moved from Cloud forum to Photoshop Elements forum]
    Photoshop Elements 6 is ancient software which is unlikely to run on your MacBook Air.
    You can upgrade to Photoshop Elements 11 for the US$79.99 upgrade price if you still have your PSE6 serial number.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 won't open

    Just downloaded PSE11; can't get it to open. Desktop icon does nothing; starting it from the .exe file gets things going, but when it reaches the 'initializing' phase, up pops an error message: "Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    I have uninstalled/reinstalled, but no luck. I've tried navigating to a jpg and right-clicking and selecting Open With, but again, no luck.
    I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron. Sure hope there's a solution to this - I'm ready to rip my hair out. Thanks in advance for your help!
