PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 6 COMPATABILITY PROBLEM WITH VISTA?

My shortcut icons on my desktop and icons in my programme list have all changed to photoshop logos and only now open photoshop with exception of the ebay shortcut and the email and internet logo in the programme list.  Is there a compatability issue with Windows Vista or an update that resolves this ?

This is a forum, not a live chat. Expecting an answer within 3 minutes is just not, erm well, clever. To answer your question: No, PSE 6 is not compatible with Win 8. You need to upgrade to PSE 11.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 - problems with copying image

    I'm trying to select a person from one photo and put them into a completely different photo.  Using the selection brush (the lasso and magic wand didn't work with this photo) I have outlined the person then copied to the other photo.  The problem is when I paste all I get is an outline, no content.  I've also tried using the move tool with the same result, just the outline, no content.  I've watched various videos and tried many other methods with no luck.  Even unloaded and reloaded Photoshop Elements 12.  Anyone had any advice?  Thank you.

    If you are using the regular selection brush, not the quick select tool, it only selects the area directly under the brush, so if you are using a small brush to brush around the outline, that's all you're selecting. The quickest way to fix it is to increase the brush size and hold down the shift key while brushing over the area within the outline, or switch over to the quick select tool, which finds the edges of objects  automatically.

  • Photoshop Elements 9 - problems with locating photo files

    I have saved my photos and my catalog on a removable hard drive.  When my laptop's techical support had to unexpectedly replace my laptop's hard drive, it meant I had to reinstall Photoshop Elements 9, which we have done.  For some reason, the My Catalog on the removable hard drive was showing that it was created in Photoshop elements 6 which was surprising since I know that I had used it in Photoshop Elements 9.  I went ahead and converted My Catalog.  It now shows the key tags,star ratings, and captions, etc.  Everything except the basic picture.  It is not looking for the files on the removable hard drive.  What can I do to get it to look at the removable drive where they are stored with a matching file name in the appropriate subdirectories?  The properties of the pictures seem to be showing the photos as being at various other locations that no longer exist!  What do I do?  I do not relish having to reimport, re-caption, re-edit, etc., etc. for hundreds of pictures.  Photoshop's catalog sensitivity is really frustrating.  I am about ready to go to another product.  If I have to re-construct everything again, it will be my second re-construction of a PS catalog.  And I will strongly consider a much more forgivng product.

    Suggest that you make your own collage, esp. since time is running out. Do the math and determine the size that each of the 5 pictures should be, leave enough room to add text.
    Crop each picture to the appropriate size.
    Go to File>new>blank file, enter height and width of your document, background white, resolution 300px/in. The resolution of the pictures should be the same.. However, resolution 240-300px/in is probably ok for printing
    Open the 5 picture files. Access pict. #1, go to Edit>copy, open the blank file created in step #3, then go to Edit>paste
    Repeat for the other pictures. Each will on on its own layer. Use the move tool to position, and resize with the corner handles if necessary.
    Using the type tool add text.
    TIP: Open the grid to help you to position the pictures. The grid can be configured via Edit>Preferences>Guides and grid. You may want to check "snap to grid" under View>snap to grid

  • Photoshop Elements 4.0 compatability issues with Vista

    How to resolve compatability issues when loading Photoshop Elements 4.0 with Vista operating system. The Software came with Canon Canoscan 8600F scanner.

    Nope, I'm afraid that's not gonna work out. The best you can hope for is trying compatibility modes, but otehrwise I don't think there is any way to run this 7 or 8 year old software on Vista or Win7/ Win8 for that matter...

    What's error 1 in adobe photoshop elements configuration? I have a computer with W Vista 8, Windows office home and business 2013. I recently tried to install Photoshop Elements by CD with serial number but on the desktop appears the following message: error 1 (configuration problem) try to uninstall and reinstall. I have done this but the message continues to appear

    You haven't mentioned which version of PSE. If it is PSE 13, that requires a minimum of windows 7.

  • Is adobe photoshop elements 11 compatiable with windows 8

    Is photoshop elements 11 working with windows 8?

    PSE 11 and Windows 8 and/or Outlook 2013 have several reported bugs.  For example Outlook 2013 and PSE 11 are incompatible because all features (for example Photomail) do not work.  Adobe will not support Outlook for email.  The user community is unsure of whether it is an Outlook or Windows compatibility problem - but it something!

  • Is Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 compatible with Mac Mini 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo

    Hello, I’m using Mac Mini 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo with Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.  When I try to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 I receive this error message:  “Some errors occurred during installation. Adobe  Elements 11 can be installed on 64-bit systems only.”  Here is the question: is Photoshop Elements 11 compatible with my computer and operating system? I guess my computer runs at 32-bit. Why do I receive that error message when I try to instal the Trial version of the software? I have read that Photoshop Elements 11 is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Thank you.

    On prodesigntools.com
    http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-premiere-elements-11-are-out-pse-pre.html
    they say Photoshop Elements 11 running native in 32-bit:
    Photoshop & Premiere Elements 11 will run well on 32-bit or 64-bit systems, and are designed for Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, or Mac OS v10.6 through v10.8 (see the full system requirements for PSE 11 on Windows/Mac; and PRE 11 on Windows/Mac). 
    Premiere Elements 11 comes with a native 64-bit version for higher performance – in other words, the PRE Editor now runs native on both 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems.
    Photoshop Elements 11 continues as before, running native in 32-bit and compatibly on 64-bit systems.

  • Airport Extreme Utility problem with Vista (works with XP, MacOS)

    Hi,
    I just setup a new Airport Extreme network at my house, and most things are working fine. I have wirelessly connected at various points an Airport Express (using WDS), a MacBook Pro (OSX) and an IBM Thinkpad. I have several wired machines as well.
    My problem: The wired machine I use to configure and setup everything is a Vista Ultimate machine. Unfortunately, the Airport Utility won't connect to the Airport Extreme (or Airport Express for that matter) from Vista. The utility works fine from XP or OSX, but not from Vista. Note that I'm using this in a wired capacity. The Vista machine is directly connected to the Airport Extreme, while several other machine are connected through a GBit switch.
    Any help would be much appreciated? Is this a Vista security problem or an Airport Utility problem with Vista?

    It's most likely a security issue with Windows Vista. Vista has the ability to set "compatibility modes" for applications.
    Try:
    1. right mouse clicking the Airport Utility's .exe file.
    2. Click the Compatibility tab. Change the Compatibility mode to Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
    3. Now go down to "Privilage Level" and check the "Run this program as an administrator"
    Apple never tells you this but you must connect to the Airport Extreme wirelessly. Now run the Airport Utility. You should see it.

  • Is Photoshop Elements 11 compatible with Windows 8.1?

    Is Photoshop Elements 11 compatible with Windows 8.1? I got a new computer 2 months ago and have been loading in my photos and pngs slowly and tagging all of them. If I understand correctly, even though I am saving the tagging to the metadata, Elements warns me that it will not save to pngs, which is what most of mine are. As I have added about half now (about 100 hours of tagging) my computer is freezing up and will no longer open my Elements. My computer completely froze and needed tech support for several hours to get anything to work again. The tech support couldn't find any malware to explain this problem and have concluded that the Elements is not compatible with my operating system. I have not been really pleased with this computer from the start and am not totally convinced that Elements is the cause of the initial lock up of my computer. I am willing to purchase a newer version of Elements if that is the problem, but am worried I will get a newer Elements, go through the loading and tagging process and have the same thing happen again, especially if I have to retag everything I just did. I cannot find anywhere that specifically states whether Elements 11 is compatible with Windows 8.1 (only windows 8). Before I go to a lot of trouble, does anyone know for sure whether Elements 11 is compatible with Windows 8.1? Thanks,Donna

    PSE11 will run as a 32-bit application in W8.1-64, PRE11 will run as a 64-bit application.
