Photoshop Elements 8  The organizer refuses to load.

All I get is an error message stating "Adobe has detected that the appilcation Elements Organizer has unexpectedly quit."
I first encountered this error after trying to creat an album using Shutterfly.  Shutterfly seemed to "hang up" when calling in the photos.
I contacted them and the suggested that I needed a new version of Adobe Flash.  After I uploaded that new Flash, the organizer quite working.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall  Photoshop Elements 8 but that did not solve the problem.  I contacted Adobe but they indicated that Photoshop Elements
had been update to version 9 and that I would have to Contract them to help with my problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to "fix" Photoshop Elements 8?

Thanks for your response.  Let me know if you find a solution.

  • I bought Photoshop elements 12 the organizer loads but the editor just churns

    I bought Photoshop Elements 12 at Costco, the organizer loads but when I click to edit a photo the app says it needs to load the editor, gets my ID and password, and then just churns and churns for over an hour (and I've tried this multiple times).  It only stops when I use task manager to stop it.  I cannot edit my photos and am getting ready to take this back.  Elements 7 worked just fine.

    Hi,
    Could you please try the following solutions and see if any of these work:
    1. Navigate to 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' located inside:
    Win x64: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
    Win x32: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
         Right click on 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' and select 'Run as Admin'
    2.  Just after this keep on pressing 'Ctrl+Alt+Shift' on Windows (or Command+Option+Shift on Mac). You will get a popup asking to delete Elements settings file.  Click Yes.
         If the above does not work, please try the following:
    3. Please rename SLCache folder present at location "<root drive:>\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\SLCache"
         Win: Also please rename opm.db on your machine to resolve this issue @  <root drive>\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
          Mac : Users Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
         Now re-launch the application.
    4.  In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    5.  Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    If none of these work, please let me know.

  • When I start Photoshop Elements 12, the organizer always crashes. I can't open the program

    Everytime I try the open the organizer in Photoshop element 12, it crashes and the progrma closes. I tried to re install the program, but it doesn't work. What can I do.

    I have had PSE 12 Organizer crash three times in 7 days, and each time I had to re Tag all my files that had been completed to that point.  The Backup was not a lot of help since I had backed up only the untagged original catalog.  I find that SOMETIMES, I can start Photo Editor, then choose the Orgainzer at the bottom.  It takes a lot of coaxing to get the organizer started even then.  So far, I have spend 12 hours ReTagging and Restoring, and talking to Support that does not really have a clue as to this problem.  I have already had 2 support techs work on it, and now am waiting for Second Level support to call back.  Another day wasted.  I find that even though Organizer crashes and closes, that the Analyzer module continues to run in the Task listing, as does Organizer module.  It just runs and uses up resources.  Make sure you check your task lists and force them to cease before you try to restart again. 
    How is it that Adobe provides NO FREE SUPPORT on a known BUG.  Support earlier today told me to get answers to this problem at forums.adobe.com (here now) and I do not see any of the problems have been identified or fixed.  While 12.1 worked for one, it does not work for me.  Someone find out what is causing this and fix it.

  • Photoshop Elements 11's Organizer slow to load Nikon NEF file thumbnails

    PSE 11's Organizer app is loading Nikon NEF file thumbnails very slowly in their thumbnail browser. Has anyone noticed this? Anyone has a fix?
    It's not my PC since thumbnails load quickly using Nikon's ViewNX 2 app.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    The Nikon software uses the embedded jpeg thumbnail in the raw NEF file. The organizer creates the thumbnail from a converted version of your raw file; that way the thumbnail reflects the ACR default edits instead of that of your camera setting. The thumbnails in the organizer are updated if you do any edit to the raw files.
    You can select a few images and run the 'update thumbnail' option to have their thumbnails created in priority.

  • How can I fix Photoshop Elements 5.0 Organizer as it stopped loading new photos?

    I have used Photoshop Elements 5.0 for several years.  It has stopped receiving the new downloaded photos.  How do I fix this?  (I tried running the "setup" again but I get a message that it is already loaded.)

    1. pgrd July 10, 2012
    Thank you for your reply.  Yes I was attempting to import images from the card reader.  Indeed, they did import.  However, the organizer failed to load; also I did not get the question to confirm that I did want the photos to be erased from the card.
    I experimented and this operation failed once more, in the same manner.
    However, all is curently working as it should.  I don't have any idea for the failure nor for the current correct operation of photoshop.  Again though, thank you for your input.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
    BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

  • I have downloaded Photoshop elements 5.0 to a new PC.  I recieve error message: "Your Adobe Photoshop Elements user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit."

    I was referred here by customer service.  I have downloaded Photoshop elements 5.0 to a new PC.  After accepting the agreement I receive an error message saying  "Your Adobe Photoshop Elements user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit."  There is no place to enter the serial number.

    All your pictures will remain safe even after uninstalling the program. Your pictures are saved to your system in form of catalog present at C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\Catalogs\<your catalog><br />When you reinstall the program you can open this catalog and view all your photos again.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 Edit Screen won't load

    Photoshop Elements 10  Edit Screen won't load.  It was working fine, then I responded to an Adobe Update. It stopped working. I re-installed Photoshop Elements 10 for MAC from the purchased Disc. The organizer works but not the editor. The organizer is not able to call the Editor either. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice. I cannot get the editor to load it's editing screen or any images.
    I'm really stuck.

    Go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 settings
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 paths
    repair permissions and try again.
    Note: In lion, that library is hidden. In the finder, click the Go menu and then hold down the Option key to make it appear.

    Operating system? and how are you opening it? From a shortcut, from the welcome screen, from the organizer, from the program/application file itself?

  • Adobe update refuses to work for CS6 and Photoshop elements. App manager refuses to install.

    What exactly means "refuses"?
    This is the message which comes up if I try to update (from the Help menu) or re-install my licenced copies of CS6 or Photoshop Elements 9.
    “We've encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize.Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem”
    Get Adobe Support Advisor”
    OR
    on trying to open PhotoshopCS6 I get this message:-
    “Adobe Application Manager required to start your trial, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager_uk”
    When I follow these instructions and try and start up/install or update Photoshop CS6 I get the same messages all over again. This has been going on since Tuesday afternoon and I am anxiuous to resolve the problem. For several years now all this has worked perfectly through your website and I cannot understand what has changed.  Once I cancel these messages the products themselves seem to function OK. When I attempt to use Adobe Update Manager I get the same messages as above. You will see that my products are properly licensed and up to date. Have you any solution?

    If you haven't committed to PSE12, yet, then you should be able to download PSE/PRE11 from this website.  Be sure to follow the Very Important Instructions to set the Adobe authorization cookie, because the downloads actually come from Adobe:

    I friend has given me his original copy of Photoshop Elements 11.  It will not load on to my computer. Mac. mini. I keep getting will not initialize.

    I own the businesses, so there are no restrictions. Even my personal page has the same problem. I've been working on FB for years with no access problems. Ironically, the problem started the day the FB IPO went public. At first, the "freeze" happened when I tried to view a photo. Now it happens virtually every time I try to do anything: view a friend's page, try to use "chat."
    I'm at a loss. I would view it as a blessing, except that too many of my "friends" and family only use FB to communicate. I'm afraid that's how the world is today, and we can't turn back the clock.

  • Photoshop elements 7.0 (organizer) has stopped working, how do I fix this?

    photoshop elements 7.0 (organizer) has stopped working, How do I fix this?

    Start PSE to get to the Welcome screen.
    Hold down the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys and click Organize. Keep holding down the keys until you see the Catalog window.
    Select your catalog and click Repair.  Select “repair anyway” even if PSE doesn’t find problems.
    Then for good measure, click Optimize.
    If repairing resolves your issue then fine else repeat the above steps, but click New to create a new catalog.  If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works fine, then problem can be old catalog.
    In that case you can try regenerating the thumbnails.  Do Show All, Edit > Select All, and then Edit > Update Thumbnail.
