Photoshop Elements 8 Without Reboot?

Hi,
I am trying to create a Virtual Photoshop Elements package with AppV.  When running the AppV sequencer, I am unable to reboot the computer.  It seems that Photoshop Elements 8 Editor requires a reboot to run.  Without reboot I am getting the following error:
Licensing for the product has stopped working.
This product has encountered a problem which requires you restart you computer before it can be launched.
Blah blah blah
Error : 147:21
Is there any way at all I can get around this without a reboot?
Thanks

That helped a lot, thanks!  I now know that the issue is with the FLEXnet License service needing a reboot and not running while sequencing.  I now have a workaround (which violates all best practice of sequencing, but it seems to work) to allow me to sequence it, but now have a new question.
I found that if I install, then uninstall Photoshop BEFORE sequencing, I can perform the required reboot to allow the FLEXnet License Service to run.  Once it is running, I can the successfully sequence the virtual application without error.....a very dirty way of doing it, but it seems to be the only way at this point.
Now for the next question, is there a way to install the FLEXnet License without installing the entire Photoshop application?  The reason I need this is because the error comes back when I deploy the virtual copy of Photoshop to a computer with no FLEXnet License service running.  So, if there was a way to install this service on computers, either by pushing it out or even installing it into my images that would be great.
Thanks

  • How do I upgrade my photoshop elements without registration number?

    I was in the process of updating my photoshop elements 8 and the instructions asked me to uninstall. After uninstalling I was unable to reload the program. This product came with my computer 2/2010 and I finally tried to use it yet have no idea where the original CD is. How do I upgrade with no previous program now on my computer...any suggestions?

    It sounds like the only proof you have that the software was ever on the machine lies with whomever sold it to you.  You might check with them to see if they have any records that will support you getting an upgrade.
    If not, then you should trying contacting Adobe Support either by chat or via phone.

  • How to reinstall Photoshop Elements without losing the catalog?

    Hello all,
    I find myself in an awkward situation.
    For a reason unknown, it seems an essential file for Photoshop Organizer has been deleted. I suspect a disk cleanup utility to have been a bit overzealous. Anyway the harm is done.
    When I try to start Organizer I get a message telling me that it can't start cause "DetectionUtils.dll" can not be found. The reinstallation of this application could correct this problem". Starting Editor is not a problem however.
    I wanted to try out reinstalling Photoshop Elements but when I launch the installation the only option I have is uninstalling Photoshop as the instal program just like Windows considers Photoshop is still installed on my computer.
    My catalog is huge: I have tagged 26 000+ photos and videos. I don't want to lose it. Of course, I have backups but I want to get it back into Photoshop.
    So what are my options? How can I manage to get Photoshop 8.0 working again with my catalog?
    The simplest solution would be to be able to download the Detectionutils.dll file and install it but where can I download it and where do I save it?
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Did an uninstall and a reinstall, Elements worked again and I got my Catalog back!
    Thanks a lot for the quick answer dj_paige!

  • Exporting Emails with Photoshop Elements 10

    I have been attempting to resolve this issue for two weeks with no resolve.  I set up an email system with the wizard, and I receive the following error message:Connection to server has failed Acct. "charter.net' Server 'charter.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port:25; Secure (SSA: No: Socket Error: 10060, Error# 0x800CCCOE Or I am asked for a verification code from an email they have sent to me.  When I use the code, it states, "An unexpected error has occurred."  I have had many chats with Adobe to solve this issue with no results and used the suggestions from Adobe to no good end.  I think that something in my set up is wrong, obviously, and no tech seems to be able to get to the source of the problem.  I called my server, Charter.net and Dell, where I purchased the product, but neither one will help me.  My computer is 8 years old and out of warranty, so Dell won't help and the server doesn't do this kind of thing.  Help.  I'm frustrated and need to move on to my work and I need this tool in order to work.
    gibsquestion

    This error doesn't come from Photoshop Elements. This is an error from your email client (Outlook?). Your email client account is not setup correctly. When you create an email with Photoshop Elements, it sends it to your email client which then performs the task of sending the email. You should be contacting your ISP (Charter) for help in setting up your email client correctly (Dell and Adobe are not going to be able to provide the information required). Do not mention Photoshop Elements in your conversation on this issue. Once you are able to successfully send an email from your email client (without using Photoshop Elements) you should then be able to send emails from Photoshop Elements without error.

  • Creative Cloud And Photoshop Elements

    I am considering starting a small class to teach Photoshop. It would be a beginers class and anyone joining would use Photoshop Elemnets, at least that is what I would recommend they get. I am a Creativve Cloud member and was dismayed to find out that even as a member there is no way to get a copy of Photoshop Elements without going out and buying it.  At least that is what support told me.  Is that really true?  Is that a policy that can be changed?  After all, I am paying for a full CC membersgip which supposedly offers you everything Adobe has.....

    I understand they are a different genre.  It just seems that for the price of CC as well as the idea behind it (one price, everytthing a creative could need) that you should have access to it or at least the ability to download a free copy of it. I guess that's just an opinion, but it seems a pretty reasonable one.  OK, if the answer is no I will stop complaining.......

  • How to go from Photoshop Album Starter Edition to Photoshop Elements?

    I have both Photoshop Album Starter Edition and Photoshop Elements on my computer. I didn't even know I had the PSA SE--I just assumed it was part of Photoshop Elements when it automatically opened after I stuck my photo disk in. So I started playing around with it and cataloged my new photos. Then I started Photoshop Elements, and none of the cataloging or tags that I had just entered in PSA SE were there. Is there any way to transfer the information from PSA SE to Photoshop Elements without having to retype everything?

    You need to locate the PSA SE catalog file. It is called My Catalog.PSA and is Docs&Settings somewhere [in a hidden folder]. Once you have located it, in PSE organizer do File/Catalog/Open and navigate to the file you just located. It will be converted and everything should work OK.

  • Edits in Photoshop Elements 12 won't show up in Lightroom 5, edits in Photoshop Elements 12 won't show up in Lightroom 5

    Everytime I Edit a photo in Elements 12 it won't save in Lightroom 5.5

    That's because your Photoshop Elements edits aren't in the Lightroom catalog. If you modify an image in Photoshop Elements without sending it from Lightroom, there should be a little icon on the image indicating that the files don't match. You can, to read the adjustments from the disk.
    Basically, you are running your workflow backwards. You should start in Lightroom, and then choose to "Edit in Photoshop Elements". Lightroom will send the image to Elements, and when you are finished in Elements the edited version should be in Lightroom.
