Photoshop Elements 12 download won't work

I have contacted the helpdesk in India several times.  Instructions are to download 2 files -- a .7z file and an .exe file.  Extract files from the .exe file then use the setup file to install from the .7z file.  I am unable to extract the files -- I keep getting this error message:
"A problem occurred while extracting some files.  Check available space on our computer and the write privileges on the destination folder."
There is no lack of space on my new computer, and I have write privileges on the destination folder. 
How do I deal with this?

both files should be in the same folder.  you then click (or double click) the exe.
any problems yet?
if yes, what files (name and extension) did you download and what are their sizes?

  • Photoshop elements 4.0 won't work

    Adobe photoshop 4.0 won't work. After installing a hp scanner, I upgraded a driver for it and had problems. So I did a system restore for oct 2009 and now photoshop won't work.I fully uninstalled all my adobe programs except active x then reinstalled photoshop elements. I have had a series of errors including "error reading configuration file" and "adobe help cannot start model effor subsystem 1" I searched this and found the updated help file and installed that.  So once I open adobe, i can pull a picture into it then it won't work. Every button I press just gives a ding sound. 

    You mean to say you are able to run but when you try opening any image it crashes. Can you try resetting the preferences:
    Click on the EDITOR icon -- the quickly hold down CTRL+SHIFT+ALT keys, this will generate a dialogue box to delete settings.
    try and let me know

  • Photoshop Elements 2.0 won't work on newer Mac OSX

    I use a MacBookPro and when I finally upgraded my OSX system to 10.6.8, my Photoshop Elements 2.0 no longer functions.  There is no error message.  The program closes and this message appears...
    "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a program error.  Photoshop will now exit."
    Is there any patch or upgrade that I can download to make this program work on the newer OS?  I don't feel I should have to pay for a whole new software program when I've already purchased the license for Photoshop Elements 2.0.
    Thanks for your help.
    Joe O'Donnell

    Hi Joe,
    The system requirements for 2.0 are at http://hiddenelements.com/elements2_requirements.html
    I am not sure if those are the official reqs but that is what I was able to dig up. Photoshop Elements 2 is a very old version, the current one being 10.0. You could try your luck by posting your query on http://feedback.photoshop.com. The experts on that forum should be able to guide you.

  • Photoshop Elements Editor Function Won't Work

    After upgrading to Windows 7, the Editior function on my Photoshop Elements 6 program stopped working. I have tried the following: Run as Administrator. No success. Compatibility Troubleshoot. No success. Reinstalling. No Success. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Please try the below solutions-
    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.
    2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    4.  Try launching directly from the exe of editor and organizer and see if it gets launches-
    Editor - c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe

  • 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.

  • Program won't stay open. Message; "Photoshop Elements 12 editor has stopped working."

    This started happening suddenly a day ago.
    Once I bring a photo into the program a window appears reading, "Photoshop Elements 12 editor has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working. Windows will close the program & notify you if a solution is available."
    The program has been working fine up until a day ago.
    Please advise a fix.

    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 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  12\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 11 albums won't sync

    Photoshop Elements 11 albums won't sync with ipad using iTunes.
    I was using PE10 and synced my albums using iTunes to my iPad 3 iOS 6.0 and 5.1 just fine. (itunes 10.7.0.21) I upgraded to PE11 and it goes into perpetual sync when albums are selected. I deleted some albums and added test albums in PE11 and those changes are not reflected in iTunes.
    I worked with Apple Care for about 2 hours uninstalling all of the Apple software (iTunes, etc) and reinstalling. That did not fix it. Apple declared it an Adobe problem and suggested I call them.
    I worked with Adobe about 45 minutes before they declared it an iTunes problem.
    Any ideas out there?

    I solved the mystery. It had to do with the file metadata in the Photoshop Elements catalog. When I moved the catalog (pictures) from my old machine to the new machine, the path (folder location) of the images changed. So, although the catalog had cached thumbnails of the photos to display in Photoshop Elements (which tricked me into thinking that the path to the images was correct), the paths were actually wrong. All I had to do was “reconnect” the missing images (a feature in Photoshop Elements which corrects missing/wrong paths to images) and now everything works correctly (sync in iTunes).

  • Can't install Photoshop Elements after downloading

    I just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements and downloaded it to my new laptop (MacBook Air OS X, 10.7.2).  It has apparently downloaded completely but when I click the Install button, I get the message "The following disk images couldn't be opened, invalid checksum".  I went back to the software library and downloaded it again, as suggested, and it still didn't work.  Please help!

    No, I haven't had any problems with other disc images.  I checked to see that Photoshop had downloaded completely and it had (.dmg).  I don't have an inti-virus program to disable, I restarted the computer and clicked on the installation icon again, and each time that I did that, the same message appeared.  I have not yet gotten as far the screen which asks for the registration #.

  • Adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version

    adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version.HELP
    If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

    jaroFocb&#39;15 wrote:
    This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful!  My email:  [email protected]  
    Good luck.
    Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer?  It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
    <C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
    If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called:  PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
    If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website.  <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
    Hope this helps.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Editor doesn't work anymore on my Mac Pro...

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Editor doesn't work anymore on my Mac Pro, running Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. I don't know why, because Photoshop Elements has always worked properly before today.
    Quite disappointing. I installed the application in May, 2014, downloading it from the App Store, and now I would like to re-install Photoshop Elements.
    Can you help me, please?

    Command + shift + alt... and it works again! Thanks a lot.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 - Photo Editor not working

    The editor on Photoshop Elements 11 has stopped working.  I have tried to uninstall Photoshop Elements 9 and failed, this may have caused this problem.  Is there a way to run a repair of the applicaiton?  If not, will I lose what I have in my catalog if I uninstall and reinstall Photoshop Elements?

    You won't lose any photos or catalogs by reinstalling (there's no repair install). However, before you do that, try restarting the editor while holding down ctrl+alt+shift (command+option+shift on a mac). Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
