Photoshop Elements 12 Zoom Burst effect stopped working

the zoom burst effect has stopped working in PSE 12! when I click the zoom burst function the photo distorts as designed but when i click the "add focus area"
button on the photo it returns the whole photo to normal without focusing the part selected. can anyone advise how to overcome this,
I have uninstalled and reinstalled PSE 12 already with no effect.

I'd try resetting the pse 12 preferences by going to Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor (Edit)>Preferences>General
and click on Reset Preferences on next launch, then restart pse 12.

Photoshop elements 6 - some effects stopped working - Mac

Photoshop Elements 6 - Mac - some of the effects that have always worked have stopped working. i get a message that "command ..... is not currently available"
This program was purchased online ... I have no discs to install it.
From these forums, I got the idea of going to my account on Adobe and checking history and there I found the orig download so I downloaded it again thinking this would replace the current program and possibly give me back all the effects. From here on the story gets murky; It seemed to download but I wound up with icons all over the place and they all still leave me with part of my effects not working.
I talked with technical support and they were worse than no help. After holding for 27 minutes I got a man who I could not understand. English is obviously not his first language. I don't think he was understanding me too well either and I finally gave up to try figuring it out on my own. So far I am just confusing myself more.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Do not assume I know what I am doing at all.
Thanks,
Laura

I don't know what an administrative account means. I do not have any antivirus software on my Mac unless they sent it with some..
My computer is at home and is not attached to any other computer if that helps.
I bought the software from adobe online 2 years ago... Yesterday I went to the support page at adobe and went into my account and looked at "history" and saw this Akamai Download Manager
1.27 GB
listed as the software I had bought so I downloaded it... hoping that would somehow correct my problem. I don't know if that made sense and I may not have downloaded it correctly.
Do you think it might help to put all my present PSE6 things in the trash and THEN try the download again??
I appreciate all your efforts on this.

Hi. My photoshop elements 12 has suddenly stopped working. When i tried opening it yesterday absolutely nothing happened. After a reinstallation I got to choose between opening picture browser or photoshop elements and when trying to open elements nothing happens. Now I have reinstalled windows but still with the same result. I was using the program for several months without problem until yesterday when it suddenly stopped working. Any suggestions on what to do?

I have Photoshop Elements 7.0 and when I go to sort the photos in order (from oldest date) I keep getting the message "Photoshop Elements 7.0 has stopped working" and then the program closes. Sometimes, eventually it has sorted as I request but today this has been rejected over 15 times. What is wrong?

Try the licensing service update:

Photoshop elements 12 editor has stopped working.

This is the error message I get. Photoshop elements 12 editor 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 programme opens and then crashes. I took it all off my computer and then reloaded it again but have the same message. If anyone can help I would be grateful.@

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 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.

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.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 Has Stopped Working

I am running PSE 8.0 on my Windows 7 pc. I installed it about two weeks ago and it ran fine. As of early this week after launching, I get to the opening screeen where I can Organize or Edit (or go to the the advertisements or tour). If I start the tour I get the above message. I reinstalled (after uninstalling) and I get the same thing.
The message also states "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". And there is a close button.
I can get to the edit screen if I open a photo and select PSE as the program, but when I try to go to Organizer, I get this.
Any ideas?
Jeff

Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the PSE Organizer might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash. Here are some steps you can take to try to fix the problem:

Photoshop Elements 11 Editor has stopped working message

Installed PSE 11. OS is Win 7. Worked ok a short time then got message "PSE 11 stopped working". I try to open file from Orginizer into Expert Editor and only get a blank screen now. Tried all three ways of opening into Editor. (Works ok in PSE 9). What other info do you need to solve this problem? This is the second time this has happened. The first time I believe it corrected with out any action on my part.

Why do I keep getting the message "Photoshop Elements 13 Editor has stopped working" when I try to open Photoshop?

Every time I try to launch Photoshop it stops working. Adobe customer support was not able to help me resolve the issue. Does anyone have a fix? Thank you

Next time try starting it while holding down Ctrl+alt+shift (cmd+option+shift on a mac). Keep the keys down till you hopefully see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 Mac - "Licensing stopped working" on trial...

I just wanted to trial newest PSE 8 on Mac, but it behaves really strange after install.
First it said that "there are some problems with your trial" after install. I restarted my Macbook Pro, and then it just show simple window with message:
"Licensing for this product has stopped working... Error: 150:30".
Well, how can I try your shiny new PSE, Adobe?

Hi All,
I switched to English on my Mac today and the program is running OK. I am really impressed with the functionality of PSE8 and from my perspective (marketing photographs editing) it is all I really need in this area. I previously installed CS4 for a trial but after a week I took it of the system because its simply to big and honestly speaking just to expensive for my needs.
I am willing to buy the PSE8 immediately if the situation with Polish systems is resolved. So I will wait for the update. Most of my Mac friends would do the same.
On the side let me say that Mac's are becoming extremely popular in Poland and a trend for replacing PC's with Mac's in office work is very much visible here. Most of the creative individuals like musicians and graphic artists use this platform and its very fashionable at the same time. Poland is one of the biggest nations in Europe with a population of nearly 40 million people. Additionally there is around 10 million polish speaking people outside the country which means that this is a potential user base that is hard to ignore by any manufacturer. All new commercial electronic equipment like cameras, phones, TV's etc. has Polish language menus built in which means this is one of the internationally recognized standard languages.
Best regards,
Pawel Danikiewicz

Official photoshop elements 5.0 has stopped working

for a reason i have no idea...
I have been told i have to uninstall and reinstall but in my programs files where i uninstall and reinstall all programs its not on that list and dont know where to go to uninstall it...
any help would be much appreciated and gladly received

Run the Installer from your v5 installation disk and see if that will run the uninstaller for you. If that doesn't work try the Micorosft fixit tool - http://support.microsoft.com/mats/program_install_and_uninstall/en.
