Photoshop Elements 7: Repair catalog taking hours, and still running?

In Photoshop Elements 7, is it normal for file/catalog/repair to take several hours?  I have, probably a few thousand photos.
I'm moving to a new computer, and wanted to clean-up the catalog before backup/restore...

No, that's not normal.  For a catalog of that size, it should take no more than a minute or so.
I recommend rebooting your computer and then trying it again.

  • Photoshop Elements needs repair.  After repair it asks for disk 1.  I only have one disk and the case I got the program in has space for one disk.  What should I do?

    I must have gotten a corrupted sector on my disk drive I place my Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 CD in the drive and it asked to install or repair or uninstall.  I clicked repair and after a minute it asked for disk 1.  I could not find a disk one and my case only has space for one disk.  What should I do?

    PSE6 is a very old program (more than 6 years old) so what exactly are you trying to do?  Have you got PSE6 already on your machine?  If so, to uninstall it, all you need to do is to go to the Windows Control Panel and uninstall it under Add/Remove programs icon.
    If you are trying to install it again on top of what is already installed then the best way is to uninstall it from the machine before installing again after rebooting.  Also, if the disk happens to be damaged then try copying the contents from the disk to a temporary folder on your machine and then try installing from that temporary folder by clicking on the setup.exe file.
    Hope this helps.

    Unfortunately, adobe doesn't have photoshop elements 6 available for download, as far as i know, so your best bet is to either get an usb dvd drive or use an computer with a dvd drive and copy the contents of the pse 6 dvd to somethiing like
    a flash drive and then copy the contents from that drive to your new computer.
    Do you still have your older mac and it has a dvd drive?
    You can share files between the two using airdrop or an ethernet cable.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the  PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and  it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 won't complete installation and won't uninstall.

    Photoshop Elements 10 won't complete the installation process and it won't uninstall using the uninstall utility (I get an error message).  So I tried deleting all files manually.  However, when I re-insert Disc #1 it only offers to uninstall Elements 10 - which it won't do (same error message).  So I can't go forward (install) or backward (uninstall).  My computer is a Dell Studio 1555 with 4 GB of RAM, 64-bit OS, running on Vista Home Premium.  I have 180 GB free of 283 GB on the C drive.

    If the app is designed correctly, the no, you won't. However, you'd have to ask the people who wrote the software, Adobe.

    Hello shiv99,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you have used Home Sharing to play the music from one computer on another, but now you would like to only use the new computer. It sounds as though you have set up the content to share between computers, but have not actually I’m ported the media from the old computer to the new one. I would suggest following the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article to import you music from the old computer to the new one. After that process is complete, you can turn off Home Sharing if you would like and the content will be in the iTunes library on your new computer.

    Have a great day,

    bought photoshop elements 11 last year for windows and using it in my desktop. The desktop is crashed now and not usable. So I bought iMac now. Is it possible to trade over or change the licence into iMac version for a small fee. If not , can I partition the hard drive of iMac and install windows and also photoshop elements? which is the best alternative ? why?

    A Photoshop Elements license is good for both Mac and Windows so it should be just a matter of downloading the Mac version and using your current serial number to activate it.

  • With the new Yosemite update (10.10.3) I can no longer transfer my photographs into Adobe  Photoshop Elements by the previously expedient  'click and drag' method. Neither am I able to import or export them. Does anyone have suggestion on moving them?

    With the new Yosemite update (10.10.3) I can no longer transfer my photographs into Adobe
    Photoshop Elements by the previously expedient  'click and drag' method. Neither am I able to import or export them. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to move pictures between the new Photos and Adobe Photoshop?

    Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
    My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
    They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
    However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
    I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
    Anyways I digress.
    So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
    At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
    All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
    Answers in a postcard :-)
