Photoshop Elements 9 for Win & Mac

Hi,
Thinking of buying  Elements 9 which is advertised for "Windows or Mac" . Is it correct that a)  I can install it  on *either* my Macbook or XP computer?.
Could I possibly  (b)  install on both ? (  at home) ,  if I don't then use the prog. simultaneously ? Am retired, photos a hobby.
In FAQ searches eg here   http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/195/tn_19592.html#main_notethree
it seems that when there are different 'platforms' you can't install software on Win and Mac simultaneously.
However with some Adobe software products you are allowed to install 2 copies.
Many thanks.

If you buy the boxed version, yes, you can install on two macs, two windows computers, or one of each. If you buy the download, your serial number is only good for one platform.

  • My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download

    My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download or re-install. " and then the button "Buy Now". When I hit the Buy Now button I am put in a field to buy Photoshop Elements 13, with no way to change to Elements 10. I do not want to go through the hassle of reinstalling etc. In fairness, it's been over a month since making the decision to buy. Still, I consider this a nightmare. Any ideas on how to buy the app I've got withou having to purchase a whole new one? Thanks.
    If worse comes to worse, will I need to uninstall the trial if I buy a new version? Can I use part of it lime download assistant?

    Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.  If you wish to purchase an older version you will have to find and take your chances with a third party vendor.

  • I just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 for a Mac and trying to install. I am at the point to enter the serial number but it won't take letters. What do I do and where do I go for help?

    If the code you are trying to enter has letters then you are not looking at a serial number.  A serial number only contains numbers - 6 sets of 4 numbers.

    You might be dealing with a redemption code.  This is especially so if you purchased it from a store or the like.

  • Does anyone know if Photoshop Elements 9 for the Mac is compatible with Mavericks?

    Does anyone know if Photoshop Elements 9 for the Mac is compatible with Mavericks?

    Yes, but it is absolutely critical to delete all existing preferences after upgrading to 10.9.
    I'm running PSE 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 in 10.9. PSE 11 has a slight problem (with a couple of filters) but otherwise it all works.

  • Installing a downloaded version of photoshop elements 8 for the mac

    Can someone please help me.  I downloaded version 8 of photoshop elements for the mac (a paid version and not the trial).  When i click on the set-up icon and go through all the required information (i.e., serial number, etc.), the screen goes to checking the system and finally to "preparing to install".  It sits there and does nothing.  I have waited for hours but it just says "preapring to install".  I have downloaded the app a couple of times.  I rebooted a couple of times.  I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.1  I also have the earlier version of Photoshop Elements, version 6.  Can someone help please.  I have holding now for 73 minutes on Adobe's support line.

    Not to sound completely stupid but does this require me to download elements
    again but under the new admin user?

  • If I bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 for my Mac, how do I download it for my PC?

    A while ago, I bought Photoshop Elements 8 for my Mac which I don't use anymore and I was wondering how I could download it for my PC. Any help would be appreciated.

    You will need to upgrade to Photoshop Elements 10 and choose the Windows version.  You will still qualify for the upgrade pricing.  For more details please visit http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 for the Mac crashes on exit

    I recently installed PE 8 for the Mac on an iMac running OS x 10.6.4.  When I exit the program I get an error message from the OS that Photoshop Elements quit unexpectedly.  I also get an error message from PE that it crashed. 
    With the assistance of tech support I have downloaded it again, reinstalled it and even set up another admin accounted and repeated the downloading and installation process to no avail.  I am still waiting for a reply from "upper level techs."
    I have not started to use PE8 because I am reluctant to invest a lot of effort and photos until this is corrected.

    Cal-
    That's a bummer. I think Elements is probably half way between iPhoto and Aperture... the advantage is that it sets you up to move pretty seamlessly to Photoshop, which is clearly a lot more powerful than Aperture. But if Aperture does all you want, you will probably be happy with it.
    You didn't happen to save the email from Adobe support, did you? I would LOVE to see it.
    cheers,

  • Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac is frozen?

    A month ago I purchased a MacBook Pro and also Photoshop Elements 8 for the Mac. Was creating albums in iPhoto and editing in Photoshop with no problem. Today, Photoshop stopped working. It will launch only if I reboot, but it won't open any images. I can't pull them in through the toolbar either (using "open" command). It will only put them in the project bin. Other than iWork, this is the only other purchased program on my laptop. Am editing photos from a wedding, promised for review next week. Help!

    Please reset the PSE preferences:
    Here's how: 
    1. Exit PSE.
    2. Open PSE just to the Welcome Screen and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift (Mac: Cmd + Opt + Shift) and keep pressing. 
    3. Click on "Edit" from the Welcome Screen but keep pressing the keyboard keys - don't let up.
    4. You will get a little dialog box asking if you want to delete the settings file. Click "Yes."  You can let go of the keyboard keys now. 
    This will rebuild the file for you and often solves the issue.
    Try and let me know.

  • Photoshop Elements upgrade for Mac in near future?

    I use Aperture but would like an application to complete more sophisticated changes to a photo. Photoshop Element for Mac is one version behind the Windows version and the Mac version is about 18 months old. Has anyone heard if there is an updated version of Photoshop Elements due for the Mac in the near future?
    Thanks

    In case you haven't already heard, Elements 8 is now out. I downloaded it a couple of days ago and it works great. Be sure to check out the system requirements to make sure you have the setup to use it.

  • Downloading/Installing Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac

    I purchased Photoshop Elements 11 for Windows/Mac. (I have a Mac) I then downloaded the file and it opened to tell me that Mac can not open a windows file.  I went back in and looked at the files downloaded and there were two files with different extensions.
    1).exe
    2).7x
    I went back into my orders to see if there was the .dmg file that I needed and it is not there.  Then under the description of the purchase it says that the file available to download is the Windows file.  When I go back to look at what I actually purchased, it says it was for Windows/Mac.  Where is the file that I need for Mac?
