Photoshop elements 5  invalid address acess denied

have had elements 5 for yrs, use it with lightroom 2( since it was released), had the patch for vista, has worked fine but  starting a few days ago when i try to open pse via lightroom, icon on desktop or thru programs i get the above error box. tried to repair it, uninstalled and reinstalled and stil get the address. have not downloaded any new plug ins or anything similar( actually nothing new downloaded) any ideas how to fix this since i can not open nor use elements at all.
windows vista ( 32 bit) far as i know all are updated to current updates.
Thanks

I had this problem on VISTA. I came straight to this forum, read the replies, uninstalled Google Chrome, and PSE works!!!!
I can understand that Adobe does not want to address this problem as it is a family issue with Google and they are tight. Too bad, that's sad. But at least PSE works now for me! Thank you!

  • Installing new Retail version of Photoshop Elements, receive Invalid Serial Number

    Hi Everyone,
    I purchased a new Box retail version of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements 12 and before installing I am asked for the Serial Number. I enter it from the box but I get a message that says it is invalid serial number. How can that be if that is what is on the Box.
    Thank you,
    Danny

    Hi Everyone,
    I was able to solve it myself and in way should have provided more information. I was installing the software under the local Admin which in my Domain does not have internet access through our Proxy.
    Once I logged on with my Domain Admin and tried to install the software, it worked with out problems. I was not aware that the computer needed access to the Internet to verify the Serial Number.
    Thank you all for your time and assistance.
    Regards,
    Danny

  • Photoshop Elements 6 invalid serial number error

    Hallo, ich mußte Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit erneut installieren und kann jetzt die Photoshop Elements6 DVD unter Eingabe der Seriennummer nicht aktivieren, die Seriennummer sei "ungültig".  Die Seriennummer teile ich Ihnen bei Bedarf gerne mit. Die DVD wurde von DELL mit dem Laptop im Januar 2008 geliefert.
    Was muß ich jetzt tun ??  Mit freundlichen Grüßen   Klaus Peschke

    You need to contact support directly for activation/deactivation and other installation issues. It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. You will need your serial number.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 - invalid checksum

    I've been unable to run the trial of Elements 10, I've downloaded the file ok, but I then get a pop up "The following disk images couldn't be opended" and gives the reason as "invalid checksum".  Any ideas on how I can get the file to run.?
    Thanks

    This indicates that your download is possibly corrupted.  Do you see any messages in the Adobe Download Assistant such as that it might still be extracting?  Where did you choose to download the install files too?

  • Photoshop elements 11 invalid password

    it's said "invalid passeword" when i wrote the 24 digit number written on the pocket disk..... what can i do?

    If it really said "password" it means you entered your serial number where something else was needed, like your computer account password. If it was a PSE problem it would have said "serial number" instead.

  • Photoshop elements 7 raw files acess

    A real newbie.
    I know that you should be able to view or see and change using the sliders etc when I have a photo downloaded from a canon450d
    whta do you do ?????

    What to do depends on what you to do exactly with the image. you can apply various sliders provided in the camera raw plugin and various editing options provided by the plugin. you can open the image in editor in case you want to edit more or save the image from the plugin in case you are done with image editnig.
    cheers

  • Adobe photoshop elements 5.0 ip address invalid

    i have a adobe photoshop elements 5.0 downloaded into my laptop vista 32 bit now that i moved to another area the photoshop is telling me invalid ip address..the photo organizer is working but the photo edit & quick fix are not working...why is my product that i paid for doing this to me it shouldnt matter where ever i go i should be able to use it.. now i call adobe & they are not supporting this product any more so they send me to this sight.....help.adobe.com & forums.adobe.com...which is no help to me at all...photoshop what do i have to do to get some help please

    I too experienced the invalid address issue. I am running winXP and my problem started after I had done a destructive recovery on my machine. I had been running pse 5.0 for 4 or 5 years and never had an issue with it. I looked at all of the corrections to try and make and then tried the very easiest. I am running Bitdefender anti-virus so I shut it down and my pse 5.0 started working perfectly. So I turned it back on and started trial and error with the individual settings. I finally found that i could set my realtime protection to permissive and pse works perfectly. I leave my protection on permissive while I use pse then change it back to default when I'm done. If you are running a different type of anti-virus, I suggest you try this simple trick before doing anything complex.
    Good luck to you all, and remember to try the easiest things 1st.
    very sincerely, Lonnie

  • Photoshop Elements 5.0 Attempt to access invalid address error

    Everytime I try to open Photoshop Elements I get this error message
    and the application refuses to load. I had this issue before and solved it by deleting Chrome (which irked me as it remains my favourite browser to use) however it appears to have come back. I'm not using Bitdefender and my operating system is Windows 7. I have tried deleting my preference folders and uninstalling and re-installing. Any help? I really don't have the money to upgrade and I like this version.

    Have you applied the 5.0.2 update for Vista/W7? If not download it here:

  • Elements 4 "attempt to access invalid address"

    I had to re-install Win XP and when I re-installed Elements 4 I can no longer open a .jpg file by right clicking "open with photoshop elements". Instead I get the msg: "attempt to access invalid address".
    Assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    After further search on the internet I was able to find out the cause of the problem -- there is a conflict with my anti virus security BitDefender 2010. A solution can be found here: http://forum.bitdefender.com/lofiversion/index.php/t15247.html
    Most of the post refer to a problem with Elements 5 and 5.1 but the solution worked for my verison also.

  • Elements 5.02 - Attempt to access invalid address

    When I try to launch Photoshop 5.02 the welcome screen is displayed and I can open the Organizer, but when I attempt to open the Quick Fix or the other editor programs I get a dialogue box "Attempt to access invalid address"
    This problem is on my profile only as Photoshop works when another user is logged in to the PC ( OS: Vista Home 32bit) and was working ok until a few week ago.
    I have tried the following with no success:
    Reinstalled the s/w.
    Deleing the Photoshop folder from the AppData in my profile folder.
    Deleting the Photoshop registry entries from Current User.
    Searched the web for a solution
    I know that I could delete my profile and create a new one, but I would only do this if all else failed as I would loose other settings just when I have all setup the way I want it.
    Could anyone give me any pointers to where I might look to resolve this please.
    Thank you. Niall

    Make sure your user account has full administrative permissions.  Then, at this stage of the game, I would take the following steps:
    - Re-create the Preferences file following these instructions:
    Re-create the Photoshop Elements preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
    Note: When you use this solution, Photoshop Elements will create a new preferences file and you will lose custom settings associated with your current preferences file. However, the file you rename in step 2 is your original preferences file. If you determine that the preferences file is not causing the problem, then you can restore your custom settings by undoing the instructions below.
    To re-create the Photoshop Elements preferences file:
    Quit Photoshop Elements.
    Locate the Adobe Photoshop Elements preferences files. In Photoshop Elements 5.0, there are two preferences files, one for Organizer and one for Editor:
    Users\[ user ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Organizer\psa.prf
    Users\[ user ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Editor\Photoshop Elements 5 Prefs.psp
    Rename the extension for the files (for example, to psa.old).
    Start Photoshop Elements. Photoshop Elements creates a new preferences file.
    I doubt that this will fix your problem, however, it is always the first thing to try.  If it does not, take these steps:
    - Uninstall Photoshop Elements
    - Run the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301)
    - Reinstall Elements
    - Reinstall the 5.0.2 patch
    Good luck,
    Juergen
