Photoshop Elements 9 - Editor is busy

This command could not be completed because the editor was busy.  Please finish the current operation and try again.  Edit Photo or Fix Full Photo Edit through the Organizer brings up this message.  I can how ever close the organizer window and do a file open through the Edit window.  This happend before and the only way I could get rid of the problem was to delete the sofware and re-load.

Michael,
I also get the editor busy message. I have discovered it happens if I open the editor first before opening the organizer. When I attempt to got to full edit mode I   get the buy message. If I then switch over to edit and back to the organizer I can edit the photo. If I open the organizer first then I do not get the message when I edit a photo.  A glitch for sure but I guess I just will open the organizer first.

  • Owned Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor for 6 weeks - upgrade?

    I bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor from the Mac App Store 6 weeks ago. I didn't need the organiser so the cut down version was perfect for me.
    However, now Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor is out but there is no upgrade option and it seems a bit harsh to expect people who bought recently to buy it all over again for a few new gadgets.
    I really expected to see an upgrade to 9 to sort out the bugs I found but I'd guess that's not gonna happen now.
    Is the only option "buy the new version" and hope that the bugs have been fixed?
    When I Alt click "remember" on the save properties, it'd be nice if it actually remembered and not keep reverting back to GIF.

    Argh56 - I feel your pain.
    I, too, just paid $80 for the app store version of Elements 9 very recently.   The update, Elements 10, is FULL price to me.
    That is rediculous.   Rediculous. 
    Charge me $20 in-app for the upgrade.  Charge me $40, if you must Adobe, but asking me to pay another $80 is absurd.
    The Adobe website says that app store download version of Elements will "qualify" for an upgrade price.  What is the upgrade price?  $80 - the same a brand new user would pay!
    It is business practices like this that really anger those customers on whom Adobe has built its success. I used Photoshop for years, and Elements for the last few years. I enjoy the product and am familiar with how it works. 
    However, right now.... where I'm sitting... I am oh so close to clicking on the "buy" button for Aperature and giving my $80 to a company that treats its customers better.   
    Maybe this is what we all need to do to communicate with Adobe in the language they speak - $$$.  (Similar to the OWS 99%ers are telling the big banks?)
    Honestly - this is no way to treat loyal customers.
    Holly G.
    P.S. I don't believe those who defend this highway robbery by saying that something about the Apple app store makes Adobe charge this much for the update.  Baloney.  I buy upgrades in-app all the time.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 Editor Shuts Down Without Saving for Web

    Hi
    I have a mac version of Photoshop Elements 12 Editor. I have been using the products for a few months with no problems until recently when I try to save for web (after the preview is shown), the program will shut down by itself when I click the "Save" button.
    Mac version OS X 10.9.5

    Oh, and while you're in there delete:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 paths
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 settings
    There's a saved application states folder at the same level as the Preferences folder. Delete anything in there for PSE.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 Editor : File/Open - How can I set a default folder ?

    Hi
    When I am in the Photoshop Elements 11 Editor and I want to load a picture from "My Pictures" on my hard disk ...
    I go the menu item File/Open ...
    Right now PE11 opens the last picture folder I worked with before ...
    How can I make PE11 show the root directory of the "My Pictures" Library.
    I do not want people to see which pictures I have been working with lately.

    Before quitting the app after you have worked clic Edit->Preferences and click Reset preferences on next launch.
    This would reset the settings and next time it will open my pictures by default with file open,
    Thanks,
    Garry

  • Photoshop Elements 8 Editor will not open

    I'm running Windows Vista (Home Premium) on a Sony vaio laptop that exceeds (by a landslide) all of the requirements to operate Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.  The organizer opens just fine and functions properly.  When I try to open the editor (either through the organizer or by its self it states "launching" and does not open.  Instead within three to five seconds I get a small windows error window that pops up stating "Photoshop Elements Editor has stopped working" even though I can't even get the editor to open.  I've tried some of the support suggestions on the Adobe web site but clearly this is something else.  I've also removed and reinstalled the software twice with no changes.  I downloaded all of the windows updates as well.  PLEASE HELP!

    Re: Photoshop Elements 8 Editor
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go to c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.
    I found this in the Elements forum and it worked!!!!

  • Adobe photoshop elements 10 editor crash when the organizer is open

    My operating system is: Windows 7 Home Basic (service pack 1) 32-bit. Directx: 11.0, video card: Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT, (512 ram DDR 3, whit driver 296.10 that is the last one), PCI Express x16 Gen2. Procesor, Intel Core i7 860 2800 MHz. System Memory 2040 MB DDR 3 (Kingstone), only 1 disk drive of (931.51 GB), a system defragmented recently. I have a latest version of Quicktime from Apple. If you can help me, i glad you. Photoshop Elements 10 editor stops working properly when i have the organizer on at the same time. basically, the program not responding as if to consume all system resurces for erratic periods, but other programs works fine. as if the organizer blocks the editor or generate conflict. if i close editor, organizer works fine, if i close organizer, editor works fine, not both together. i reinstall, and the problem persist.

    Are you able to edit an image file that's not in the iPhoto library with PSE 10?
    Also the followinjg has some tips on configuring PSE for use inside iPhoto that you may or may not know about:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.  3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    Click to view full size
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9/10 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full size
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu).  This way you get the best of both worlds.

  • How to import photos from iPhoto Library to Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor?

    I can't use Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor to edit photos from iPhoto Library. If I choose File, Open, and then select 'iPhoto Library', error message is "could not complete your request because of a program error."

    You can't do it that way. Any attempt to poke around in the iphoto library from outside iphoto is very likely to damage the library and cause you to lose your photos, so PSE won't let you. You have two choices:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor, send the photos from iphoto, and save them without changing the name or format (you may need to adjust the editor prefs>Saving Files>On First Save to let you do this). Then iphoto will remember your original and the last edited version.
    Be sure to choose this file in Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 10>Support files as your external editor, not the one at the top level of the PSE 10 folder in Applications:
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, use File>Open in the PSE editor to open the images and then save them with whatever changes to name or format you like, and reimport the saved images to iphoto as new files. This way you can save as many versions as you like.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor

    I purchased and installed for the Apple Shop, Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor yesterday but I cant seem to get it working.  Devastated!
    Can anyone please assist me?  Refer to the error attached.
    Thanks very much for your help.

    Guys,
    You are right. Something very different about this version through MAS. I thought there was something screwy that even though the info in MAS said it could be installed in one of four different languages there was no option for which language.
    Double checking this I got forced into buying it from MAS. Purchase made before I could back out and installation was automatic over which there was no control.
    I can't find anything on my Lion drive about unistall.
    Like I said PSE earlier versions had always let you set location and language as part of the install. And the install also included an unistaller for that app.
    I wound up with an English installation which I guess is based on my location and account in MAS.
    meino-w where did you download to, meaning your location?
    I have to say that I am not impressed with how MAS handles this. It is also a different package than you would get from Adobe.
    I am sorry that I don't have any answers, I am left with just questions myself.

  • How do I open my raw files in photoshop elements 12 editor-..my files convert to jpegs

    How do I open my raw files in photoshop elements 12 editor.  I have a MacBook. I use the iPhoto and move the files I want to work on into elements, but it converts the raw files into jpeg files.
    Thanks for your help!!!

    Are you opening the image directly from iPhoto? Right click & choose Edit in >> Photoshop Elements Editor
    This link is old but gives information on set up. It relates to PSE11 but the principle is the same. In iPhoto prefs you navigate to the editor application in the support files folder. Start from Finder by holding down the Alt (Optn key) and choosing Library.

  • Adobe photoshop Elements 12 Editor - launch problem

    Hi,
    Can anyone help!
    I downloaded adobe photoshop elements 12 editor.  When I open the application the page goes straight to 'create' (ready for editing) I looked up some tutorials and noticed that the first page should launch with an option to 'Oraganise' Or 'Create'.  This page does not appear for me! ?  I have no way of importing/organising my photos into the Elements Library. I do not HAVE a library!
    I can import my files straight from the DS card in RAW, but it takes a long time to search for each individual photo that way. Can anyone help?? 

    If you can launch the editor after a re-start go to:
    Edit >> Preferences >> General
    Click the button to reset preferences on next launch. Close the editor and re-open again.

Problem am 26.11.13 mit Herrn Samt (Adobe Support Center) besprochen, leider habe ich bis heute kein Feedback erhalten!
