Photoshop Elements 9 monitor profile is defective in Windows 8.1

I'm using Windows 8.1 and Photoshop Elements 9. When I start the program I get the message "The monitor profile [name] appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software." How do I do this? Apparently Adobe Gamma is obsolete for this problem. Also, the forum only talks about Photoshop 6.0-7x and Windows versions prior to 8.1.

Please check if the downloads are the full size, and not somehow truncated.

Photoshop Elements 11 - 'Monitor Profile Defective' Message

When opening Editor in Photoshop Elements 11, I get the warning message "The Monitor profile 'Dell S2240L Colour Profile, D65' appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software".
I have recently upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1 and also had to download DirectPlay when opening PE 11. Before upgrading, PE11 worked fine for over a year on same desktop and monitor (both only 1 year old). Driver monitor is up to date.
Please can someone tell me the possible cause and my options. I have seen lots of posts on this and other forums but not sure which is the right answer. Could 8.1 upgrade have caused it by changing a setting or is that just coincidence? Would re-install of PE11 make any difference?
Would appreciate help as this is infuriating (also happened on my old desktop with earlier version of PE)!
Thanks.

PSE doesn’t like your monitor profile, for some reason. It would seem that either your monitor profile is defective or PSE11 cannot read the monitor profile, now.
Try changing it to sRGB and see if the message stops:

The instructions are for Windows 7, so instead of what the very first screenshot shows, to search for Color Management, right-click on the Win 8.1 Start button and choose Control Panel, then choose View By: Large Icons and click on Color Management.

Is there a way to make Photoshop Elements 5 (2006) compatible to a Dell Windows 7 laptop?

I received a copy of Photoshop Elements 5 (2006) and have a Dell Windows 7. I installed and registered my name to the software, but am aware that the program is compatible with Windows Vista or XP. Is there a way to make it compatible to my computer and/or update/upgrade to a more recent version? If there is no way to make the program work for my computer, is there a way to un-register my name from it?
Thank you for any help at all!

Do you get any problems when trying to run the software on Windows 7? If yes, try to run it under Windows XP or Vista Compatibility Mode.

if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

Error when I start Photoshop "Monitor profile appears defective"

Over the past few weeks I have gotten a error popup message when I open Photoshop that says:
"DELL E22IOH G2.2 D65" appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software.
If I choose the IGNORE option I can go into Photoshop error free. BUT, if I choose USE ANYWAY I get into Photoshop and the colors are off. There is no more white color (it's not a pale yellowish color).
I haven't changed any settings in my Photoshop recently (why tinker with something when it's not broken?). Regardless, this error message isn't going away and would like to correct this problem. Anyone ever experienced this before? I've googled the problem and have seen some weird so-called solutions but figured I'd go to the pro's to get a answer I can trust.
If it matters, I use Windows XP.
Thanks

I'd say your monitor profile is corrupted, or at least unusable by Photoshop.
Did you install a new monitor, or bring in new software or an update to where your system now knows more about the monitor hardware than it did before? Did you update Photoshop to a new revision?
This would not be a settings issue with Photoshop, but rather what profile you have associated with your monitor via the operating system. Right-click your desktop, choose Properties, then the Settings tab, and [Advanced] button. Systems differ at this point, but look for a Monitor tab and Color Management function where you can choose a monitor profile to associate with a particular display monitor.
Ultimately you want to try to determine what monitor profile file is being identified by "DELL E2210H G2.2 D65" and see if you can get another copy of it (e.g., from Dell.com). Note that you misinterpreted the 10 as IO in your original message, so a search for the string as I have listed it here may turn up more results.

Noel,
Did not install a new monitor or a new version of photoshop or anything else for that matter. I did however update a windows update several weeks ago. Im not sure but I think the error occurred after that update.
I was able to follow your steps and found the color management function, but there was only one profile listed.

Monitor Profile is defective

Hello: I have a LG 19 inch monitor
that supports the DVI interface which I am using. Whenever I launch the editor in elements 8 I get a message that my monitor profile "L196WTQ" is defective and that I should rerun my monitor calibration software. I do not have such software. It gives me the option to go ahead and use the monitor anyway and everything looks ok to me but then everything looks good to my anyway so I'm not sure if I'm getting an accruate view of the photo. I welcome any thoughts and or suggestions.

Try associating the profile "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" instead and making it the default. For some reason, some XP systems don't appear to let you remove the default profile, but they do let you change it.
While calibrating your display will give you better assurance that what you see on your screen is reasonably accurate, it isn't necessary to solve this problem. If you do decide to calibrate, you could consider buying the Spyder3Express ($86) or the Pantone Huey ($60 at Amazon), both of which have reputations as good entry-level calibrators.

I have sold a Loptop with Window 8.1 on it. I need to remove Photoshop from it before I can run Photoshop Elements 12 on my new Laptop with Windows 8.1. How can I do it?

I am trying to install Photoshop Elements 12. I get "Your Lic. been use by the maximum allowed computer. The other two laptop both windows 8.1 one been sold the other in for repairs. How do I remove them from my Adobe profile?

It need to be removed from the computer you sold with it activated on. If you want to use that activation on a different computer. If you wiped that computer you need to contact Adobe this is a user forum users here do not have access to Adobe Activation servers and databases.

Wacom Bamboo Tablet with Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 install on Newly bought Windows 8.1 laptop

So I bought a Wacom bamboo tablet a while back when I had windows 7, which it came with Adobe Photoshop 8 on a CD with product code. I upgraded and bought a new laptop with windows 8 and no CD drive. While I managed to re download the things needed to make my tablet work from their site, I realized I can't download Adobe elements 8 for my laptop because of two things:
1) I have no CD drive
2) Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 seems to only be for windows 7 and under.
My question is Is there any way for me to get this back on my laptop or am I out of luck in that department? I'm not quite sure I can manage the money to purchase the newer Elements for windows 8. Is it hopeless for me to work with this program again?

You can try this version of pse 8 from the adobe site:
Download Photoshop Elements products | 9, 8, 7
As far i know know, pse 8 should work on windows 8.1

Can't get Photoshop Elements 12 to begin installing on my Windows 7 laptop - got software through Wacom?

Hey guys, bear with me here because I am the opposite of tech-savvy and I'm getting really frustrated. I can't find answers anywhere and nobody in my family has been able to help.
I recently bought an IntuosPro drawing tablet from Wacom - it came with the option to download a few different programs, including Photoshop Elements 12. I downloaded it through Chrome onto my (brand new) laptop, which has Windows 7 as the operating system. When it was done downloading, I got a zip file. (I'm literally going to list just about everything in the stupid thing) I opened it, and there were two files inside - "PhotoshopElements_12_All.7z" and "PhotoshopElements_12_All.exe". Double-clicking the second one gives me a pop-up saying "The file archive part of Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 is missing. You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. Please download all parts." (Which made me download the whole thing again, only to get the same response and waste my second download - you can only download it twice off of Wacom.)
Opening the other file gives me two more folders - "PSE 12" and "ReadMe". Nothing in the ReadMe folder works. In the other folder there are 3 folders at the top ("ElementsOrganizer" "ElementsSTIInstaller" and "SupportFiles") then Data.cab files numbered 1-19, "Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.msi" (which takes me to the installation wizard thing but tells me there's an error "Please install/uninstall the product using Setup.exe in the root folder" (I don't know which one is the root folder but none of the .exe's I've found have worked) - all the .msi things do this.) then "ols_config.xml", "ols_config_education.xml", "Setup.ini", "lang.dat" a bunch of .mst files, and at the bottom, "Setup.exe"
When I click on Setup.exe, I see a flash of a little loading screen window, then it jumps to the "Do you want to allow this program to make changes to this computer?" or whatever pop up, I click yes, nothing happens. Pretty sure that's the place where something is supposed to happen, because the first response I've gotten from everyone in my family is to "click on the .exe file"
Am I missing stuff? Am I just really stupid and need to do *fill in the blank*? Is it a problem with Wacom? My computer?
Please just tell me how to make it work.
Thank you in advance.

How do I do that? I'm the only user on the laptop - I kind of assumed I already was running the install as the admin.

? Photoshop Elements 8 Organizer won't open on Windows Vista ?

I installed Photoshop Elements 8 onto a Windows Vista computer and registered. The Organizer opened with broken thumbnails throughout and I could not update the thumbnails. Therefore, I closed the Organizer and opened it again, hoping it would clear up. Instead, the Organizer would not open at all, and I've not been able to open the Organizer since.
Despite several Support cases, Tech Support could not help. They said to uninstall Elements and reinstall it, but when I uninstalled, the disc software screen said I must first deactivate my serial # by launching Elements 8 and going to Help > Deactivate.
However, when I launched Elements 8, a screen appeared with a choice of either a free trial or to enter my serial #. I entered my serial # and got a red "X", and it would not accept the serial #. Tech Support said there is nothing wrong with my serial #.
Tech Support then said to download the Trial Version. I did that, but could not open the trial version either!
Message:
"Files in use. Some files that needed to be updated are currently in use."
"The following applications are using files that need tro be updated by this setup.
Close these applications and click Retry to continue.
Organizer - Photoshop Elements"
So it thinks my Organizer is open and using files, and it's not open. I can't get it to open!
I clicked RETRY and got the same message.
I clicked IGNORE and it was installing files, got almost to the end, said "registering product", then said "rolling back action" and started going backwards.
I had uninstalled my Elements 7 software because I intended to now use Elements 8. I decided to reinstall Elements 7 to use that while I was dinking around with version 8, and now it gave me the same message:
the serial # is in error, or is already in use by someone else!
Now I can't use either 7 or 8.
HELP! Does anyone know how to deactivate a serial # when the software has already been uninstalled? Can it be done?

Hi Ankush
Thank you for your reply!
Unfortunately, I can't try out your suggestion until next summer, because in early November I moved to my winter home in Florida. I left my Vista computer in Colorado Springs in its sorry state of nonworking Adobe Elements versions 7 and 8. I took the software discs with me.
When I arrived in Florida I bought a new computer. I had left Colorado without being able to deactivate the Elements 8 serial number, so would not be able to use that software disc in Florida. Therefore, I asked Adobe for a refund. (Some of the tech support cases regarding the problem were still open and unanswered.) Adobe replied that the month warrranty had run out so they wouldn't give me a refund. I argued a little, then gave up.
Therefore, I bought a new Elements 8 software program. And the old XP Florida computer contains Elements 7 and I have the disc.
The new problem: I must know how to DEACTIVATE a serial number before I dare install the new Elements 8 softtware, in case anything goes wrong, or in case I have to reinstall Windows 7 for some reason, which would wipe out any 3rd-party software. I also must know how to DEACTIVATE the Elements 7 serial number on my old XP computer so that I can install it on my new computer.
I opened a CHAT session with Adobe and asked how exactly to do this, because their FAQs and other information aren't at all clear. Here's what the tech said to do. Launch Adobe. You will see "Help" on the "toolbar". Click "help" and select "deactivate". Well, all I get when I launch is a Welcome Screen and there is no toolbar with help there. So I thought, maybe he means, open the Organizer or Editor and look for the Help menu. I opened the Organizer, clicked on Help, and there was no deactivate option listed. So I opened the Editor and clicked on Help and there was no deactivate option listed.
I just opened a case with Adobe asking what I have to do to deactivate a serial number. I don't see why they can't explain this.
Have you any idea how this is done?
