Photoshop Elements 10 not working

Yesterday when I loaded and registered my purchased Photoshop Elements 10 program it worked fine. This morning it would not load. When I tried to reinstall, I got the message taht the serial number is invalid. Thoughts?

Nobody can help you with that, even more so since you did provide zero relevant info. Generally serial number issues will have to be handled by support, anyway.

Why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing and then it says there is an error and closes itself

why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing then error and shuts itself down.

Three things you can try:
1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
2. Perform an SMC reset:

The editing "Guided" mode of Photoshop Elements 11 not works!

Using the editing "Guided" mode of Photoshop Elements 11 the working progress line hangs at 75% and Guided mode not works ! The "Quick" and "Expert" mode, instead, working well.
Attention, please! I specify that I use Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 and I don't have AntiVirus or Firewall actived... I have already tried to delete all Preferences, all Elements 11 cache folders, etc., tried to uninstall and re-install the Software... but without success. I hope that you can help me.

About the editing Guided mode of Photoshop Elements not working.
My FINAL solution to the problem. (But I hope also for an Adobe intelligent patch...)
I finally understand why the the "Welcome screen..." and the IMPORTANT editing "Guided" did not work in Photoshop Elements 11 (or with Photoshop Elements 10); the "Guided" panel does not appear with the options but, on the right, the progress bar hangs at 75% of the options panel and the panel remains empty.
After days of hard work and after many attempts on the Adobe Troubleshooting, I realized that the problem depends by Mac OS X anti-malware functions (XProtect process). But I have not figured out why the issue did not showed running PSE into a new account; maybe, it is because Mac OS X still not intercepted always and blocked the old Flash Player plug-in, installed by PSE11. Examining System Preferences and Security Panel -> Advanced, you see the option that enables automatic control by Mac OS X for the Malware black-list.
As may be seen in the attached screeshot, if you open with XCode or with a text editor the file "/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/ Contents/Resources/XProtect.meta.plist" you can read that Mac OS X (from 10.6 Snow Leopard) inserted the old versions of Flash Player plug-in (minor of "11.3.300.271") into the black list plug-ins, to block they.
I do not understand why Adobe has left this obsolete "Flash Player.bundled" plug-in in Photoshop Elements 11 or 10! PSE11, in fact, does not use the "Flash Player.bundle" plug-in but it uses "AdobeSWFL.bundle", contained into "System_Disk/Library/Application Support/Adobe/APE/3.101/adbeapecore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/". Does maybe Adobe ignores, perhaps, the existence of a BlackList in Mac OS X that blocks the Flash Player plug-in prior to version 11.3.300.271? ... Is that really useful to install this obsolete Plug-In (for Mac OS X 10.4 - 10.5) if PSE11 works from version 10.6 "Snow Leopard" onwards?
The Flash Player plug-in installed by PSE11 is the old version "10.1.82.73" as you can read in it info.plist file (or in my screenshot attached here) and I think that if you use Mac OS X Lion or Mountain Lion you can delete it because, as we read in his file "Info.plist", the plug-in is only for Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5 ...
An hypothesis about the occasional occur of issue about "Guided" mode or "Welcome screen" not working is that PSE11, at start-up, makes a "program's call" to the old "Flash Player" plug-in installed by PSE11 and PSE10 and the system, peraphs, intercept this call through "xprotect" process that runs in the background; so, Mac OS X blocks the function of PSE11 based on Flash Player as, indeed, the "Welcome screen" and the editing function "Guided".
Or the problem lies in a behavior of PSE at startup that it due to old ACL permissions existing into Home's folders (because belong the previous Mac OS X 10.5 - 10.6 version). PSE thinks of having to boot the old Flash Player plug-in containded in APE. This would explain why PSE runs well and "Guided "PSE mode works if start-up creating a new account!
Note! Utility Disc does not correct, by default, the ACL permission in Home!!! Adobe, then, rather than suggesting to create new accounts ... must correct PSE by removing any reference to the old Flash Player plug-in. Otherwise, there is always the risk that Mac OS X prevents proper operation.
I tried to rename it or remove this plug-in and PSE11 always work well, but for pedantry, I preferred this solution:
- I installed the latest version of Flash Player from the Adobe site.
- I opened the package to "/ Library / Internet \ Plug-Ins/Flash \ Player.plugin/Contents/PlugIns/FlashPlayer-10.6.plugin/Contents /"
- I copied the four objects (Folder MacOS and Resources folder and files: info.plist and version.plist)
and
glued them in "Adobe/APE/3.101/adbeapecore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Flash Player.plugin / Contents /" overwriting existing ones.
I have one more doubt left: I have not yet enabled the iCloud option for the Photo Streaming and the iTunes Match sync; this functionalities was enabled in my old account when PSE did not working.. I hope that PSE11 will work well even when I will enable these features to sync with my Apple accounts...

Photoshop Element 7 not working with Babylon 8

I recently added Babylon 8 to my software. I use it a lot as well as Elements 7 in my work. Element 7 worked fine when I had Babylon 7 but when I upgraded to Babylon 8 Photoshop Element 7 stopped working. Any ideas as to why and how to fix?

You seem to have done most of the recommended troubleshooting procedures with FCP 7.
All I can suggest is that you create a new User Account in System Preferences and try to install it under that.
As you know, FCP 7 is now 4 years old (prehistoric in computer years) and was discontinued two years ago when Apple stopped supporting it, so there is little wonder that problems are arising with the latest OS, which can only get worse as the OS is updated.
The alternatives are to move to something like Premiere Pro, if you prefer a traditional interface/workflow or get Final Cut Pro X if you want to have cutting edge 21st. century technology supported by Apple.

Photoshop Elements 2 not working in new Win 7 PC

I have a new PC and my Photoshop Elements 2
is not working properly on it. Are they incompatable? May I download a patch to make it work on Win 7?
If I have to upgrade, which one to upgrade to? I'm a novice, not an expert so I don't need any full version high powered product.
Thank you, in advance, for your thoughts here.

A number of people have reported getting PSE 2 to work on Windows 7 by using the various compatibility options on Windows 7:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Run_in_Vista
If you choose to upgrade to a newer version, definitely go with the latest, PSE 8, which is the only one that Adobe promises will work on Windows 7 (though earlier versions do indeed run).

Why does my serial key for Photoshop Elements 7 not work?

I purchased Elements 7 about 4 years ago and am trying to install it on my new computer so I have a basic form of Photoshop until I get a new form of it. Why will my serial code that came with the software not work? I've even copied it directly from my Products and Services account page.

Photoshop Elements seems not work anymore

As a user of Photoshop Elements 11 on my Apple Notebook, I had a problem today. All the tool buttons did not work anymore and the pictures I wanted to edit were not shown in the workspace, but right under in in an extra window. Because of that problem I removed Elements 11 and I downloaden version 12 from the Apple store. But the problem is still not solved. Anyone familiar with this problem? Suggestions for solutions?@

That library is hidden in recent versions of OS X. To see it, click the the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account.
Also, if you have a wacom tablet, be sure your drivers are up to date.

Why does Photoshop Elements 6 not work with Apple OSX version 10.9?

I have recently updated my MacBook Pro and my Mac desk top to OSx version 10.9 and now Photoshop elements 6 does not respond. It opens and then stays frozen. Nothing responds. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to fix this issue?

Specifically, this:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5860819
But it is also very important to delete any existing preferences after a major OS X upgrade. For PSE 6 that would be:
com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings
They're in your username>library>preferences. Here's how to find it in 10.9:

Photo Edit In Photoshop Elements 10 not working

I've set up Lightroom so that my PS Elements 10 appears as a menu item in the Photo -> Edit In menu.
When I select that option for the selected photo, it begins the process of opening Photoshop Elements 10. PS Elements 10 opens and is functional but there is no open image - it does not load the image selected in Lightroom.
(I'm using LR4.3 and PSE 10.0 on Mac OS X 10.7.5)
What could be wrong?
Follow-up:
When I came back to the computer about 10 mins later a dialogue box had appeared saying "Could not complete your request because of a program error."

You chose the logical file instead of the correct one, most likely. Adobe sneakily hides the actual editor inside the support files folder. You want this one:
The one at the top level is just a link to the welcome screen.

Backup and Restore from Photoshop Elements 8 to Photoshop Elements 12 Not Working

I have a dual boot Windows XP SP3 32 bit/ Windows 7 SP 64 bit system with Photoshop Elements (PSE) 8 installed on the Win XP system and PSE 12 installed on the Win 7 system. Both systems can see a shared drive. I can create a catalog backup on the Win XP system using PSE 8. When I attempt to restore the catalog on the Win 7 system using PSE 12 every file fails to restore. I believe I have followed the process correctly. Any suggestions?

sremsing
From the looks of it, Premiere Elements (any version) has nothing to do with this issue. Is that correct? The question seems to involve Photoshop Elements. Somehow your thread was posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing) and not the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum which should have been the destination for your question.
Photoshop Elements
If you program is Photoshop Elements, please repost your thread there or wait for a moderator to see your thread here and then move your thread from here to there.
PE is usually used to designate Premiere Elements, and PSE is usually used to designate Photoshop Elements. Using abbreviations can could confusion at times when PE and PSE are used interchangeably.
Out of curiosity, is your set up Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit and the companion virtual Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit or is it as your wrote, the real thing "a dual boot Windows XP/ Windows 7 system". Photoshop Elements 8 and 12 are compatible on Windows 7 64 bit, why the Photoshop Elements 8 on Windows XP?

Photoshop Elements 5 not working

Today I tried to open Photoshop Elements 5 but, when I chose "Edit and Enhance Photos" or "Quick Fix Photos", I receive the attached message.
It means "You did try to access an invalid address".
I did run a "repair fix" with the installation DVD, but it didn't solve the problem. Any ideas?
Any help would be welcome.

Hi Niall
Unfortunately, no.
I was told by Adobe Portugal this might be a problem with a Vista update. It seems this thing happened only in some regional Vista versions.
