Photoshop Elements and Windows Live Mail :(

Had Adobe come out with a patch yet to fix their oversight regarding WLM?  Windows 7 had WLM and you can't get PE to send photos to WLM.  It's very disappointing.  I hate to abandon my favorite photo email software for something that works......  but looks like I'll have to.
ADOBE PEOPLE - PLEASE HELP.

I'll repost this problem.   How do you get Photoshop Elements  8 to work with Windows Live Mail that comes with Windows 7?  THANKS.

  • Is PS Elements 12.0 compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail??

    Is the Organize/eMail part of Elements 12.0 compatible with my Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail?  I have never been able to make it work with my Elements 9.0 after many hours of trying.  The problem is acknowledged by Adobe and a solution offered but the solution does not work in any of my three Windows 7 computers.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Brian, Thank you for responding.  I actually have two different questions on the same topic so I'll discuss them one at a time.
    1.  When I purchased a new Windows 7 computer several years ago I also purchased PSE 9.0 because I had been told my old PSE 4.0 would not work with W7.  I didn't get around to installing it until last fall--PSE 4.0 was working fine on the XP machine and I didn't have the time.  PSE 9.0 installed fine but I could not email a  photo from the Organizer.  I recently got interested in fixing the problem which has turned out to be more difficult than I could imagine.  I found a lot of evidence on the web that to make it work with W7/Windows Live Mail  you needed to make some patches in the registry.  I tried to follow the Adobe instruction a number of times but when I got down to: " 4. On your desktop, double-click SetDefaultEmailClient.reg. If prompted, click Continue. Click Yes on the Registry Editor confirmation prompt." it would not work.   Double clicking would bring up the browser with some register-like statements:  [Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open\command] @="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Windows Live\\Mail\\wlmail.exe /mailurl:%1" ].  I did not get a "Continue" to click on or a "Yes on the Registry Editor confirmation prompt".   I got nothing to take action on that might cause the registry to be updated with the specified patches.  I'm no expert on modifying the registry and this is beyond my understanding.  It just didn't do what it implied it would and I'm lost.  I've tried in on my WLM 2011 computer and on my brand new W7 notebook computer with WLM 2012.  I tried it using my normal browser, Firefox, and using Internet Explorer.
    PSE 9.0 does indeed show Windows Live Mail as an option under Edit/Preferences/Sharing and I have selected it.  When I try to share a photo via email all seems to go normally to the end when I get the message:  "Elements Organizer could not finish creating your E-mail message."  And, that is really not very helpful.  When I Google on that "Elements Organizer could not finish creating your E-mail message" I find that I'm far from being the only one with this problem and people with PSE 8.0, PSE 10.0 and PSE 11.0 have reported the problem.  I've found no way to communicate with Adobe and even their main support number, 800-883-6687, comes on with a message "this number is temporarily unavailable"!! I've called over 50 times over several days. That seems quite unusual.  It seems like selling a software product that is incompatible with one of the most popular Microsoft operating systems and email clients would not be a good thing.   Sorry for all the words but I wanted to define the situation as well as I can.
    2.  Given all of the time I've I spent without solving the problem it seemed tossing my PSE 9.0 and switching to PSE 12.0 might have been a smart move many months ago.  And, I'm considering it now.  That is why I really would like to get some assurance from Adobe that the problem is fixed and that I will have no problems with PSE 12.0, at least with emailing from the Organizer.  The news that it is working for you is encouraging and I hope others will report on the luck they have had.  You say it works better with WLM 2012 than with WLM 2011 but I don't know what that means.  It seems that the minimum requirement is that any time you want to send a photo via email, it works!
    If anyone knows how you can contact Adobe, by phone or email, please let me know.
    Thank you very much, Brian.

  • PSE9 and Windows Live Mail - Help

    I am trying to send photos via "Share" email attachement and Windows Live Mail.  I get to the part where you are supposed to be sent to WLM, and then it comes up with the error message "Elements Organizer could not finish creating your e-mail message.  Alternately, you can use Adobe E-mail Service via the Elements organizer preference dialog."  WLM has been selected as the mail server in the preferences section of Elements, and also in Windows 7.
    I don't want to send mail through Adobe E-mail Service, but I did try that.  I get to the same spot, and the entire program crashes.
    Furstrated!

    Adobe have had problems with the Windows 7 email client ever since they issued a patch for PSE8.
    Furthermore it will not work with 64 bit editions of Outlook, to the disappointment of many but you would think they would have sorted out Live Mail before launching PSE9. The product help screens are entirely misleading.
    Both PSE8 and PSE9 are said to be Windows 7 compatible, but in reality they aren’t. Even after downloading the patch Adobe customers are still reporting problems.
    If you are using a purchased copy of PSE9, rather than the trial I would suggest you raise a ticket with the support team and claim your entitlement to help with a solution.

  • BTYahoo and Windows Live Mail

    Hi,
    I use BTYahoo online mail, and Windows Live Mail desktop client. I want to be able to sync my Windows Live Mail address book with BTYahoo mail. Is this possible?
    Thanks
    Dave.

    Well I suppose the good news is that I am not the only person with this problem but it has made me think of a possible resolution.
    Trying to follow this logically, I am not getting any problems with my android devices which connect wirelessly so I am not sure that it can be slow broadband connection or intermittent line problems bearing in mind that my PC is connected to the router by ethernet cable which should be better than wifi. It would therefore seem to be the way that Windows Live Mail is connecting, and on checking I see that the server settings are different. I have matched my PC to the Android settings and I will report back the results.
    I can quite see if the server keeps dropping the connection for some reason or different servers settings are being used to access the emails then this might trigger the request for a new password.

  • APAS 3.0 and Windows Live Mail program

    How do I change the email client that Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.0 is using from Outlook express (old emailing program) to Windows Live mail (new emailing program)? When I change the 'edit, preferences, email, to "Hotmail", it goes to a web site via IE (hotmail's website mail). But, I want to open and attach a photo to Windows Live Mail. Any help is appreciated.
    Jorge

    Hi Jorge,
    You can use Windows Live Mail for your emails if you set it your default email client.
    Go to Control panel->Internet options. Click Programs tab and select Windows Live Mail as your default client.
    Now if you would use APAS 3.0 to send mail, Windows live mail would be used for email.
    Thanks,
    Sourabh

  • PSE 9 and Windows Live Mail

    I followed the the tutorial to direct photos for Emailing to my Windows Live Mail account.
    Instead of doing this, a dialogue box appears that states " Elements Organizer  could not finish creating your Email message".
    How can I fix this?
    Another question: How do I get the Organizer toolbar to appear? The File, Edit etc tabs appear to be hidden.
    I have "The Missing Manual" on order, but thought I would give this forum a try while I am waiting.

    Why doesn't adobe email show that I have sent the email in my sent box?
    Because the email wasn't actually sent by Windows Live Mail.   PSE sent the message directly to Adobe's email servers, which then delivered it to the recipients, and it was never handled by Windows Live Mail.  If you want a copy, you'll need to cc yourself.
    Many people have complained that PSE 8 doesn't support Windows Live Mail, but Adobe doesn't seem to care.

  • Syncing iPhone Contacts with Windows Contacts and Windows Live Mail Contacts (Windows 7)

    Please see the following graphic in which I have attempted to depict this situation from what I have been able to find, and please refer to the following thread (third post) for further details:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3728606

    Allan Sampson wrote:
    Microsoft copied Google and now supports accessing a Hotmail or Windows Live Mail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app. This provides Push access for received messages and for syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with the account on your iPhone.
    For syncing calendar events direct with an application on your computer via the iTunes sync process, you need Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010.
    I understand your second statement about the needing Outlook - but I'm trying to reconcile it with your first paragraph - there is support for calendar events over the air between Windows Live and iPhone? So it can be done, just not physically through syncing via iTunes?

  • Intranet email with apple mail and windows live mail on LAN

    i have a home wifi network and have two computers using it. one is my macbook and other is my toshiba vista laptop. now my bro and i often exchange emails. he uses windows live mail and i use apple mail. since we are on a slow internet connection with limited data usage per month i was wondering if we could email each other directly over our wifi LAN network without having to use our ISP. i know that we wont be able to use our gmail, yahoo or hotmail or other such internet based IDs but maybe we can make a LAN based ID and exchange emails.
    any suggestions?

    There's no practical, simple way to do that as far as I know. Apple Mail, like virtually every other mail program is only able to communicate with a mail server, not with another such program.
    You would either need to set up a mail server on your LAN (not a trivial task) or you'd have to find a "peer-to-peer" email program and I'm not aware of any such application. Furthermore, in your situation, it would have to be cross-platform (Windows and Mac).
    In more technical terms, the email programs we all use are "Mail User Agents" (MUA). An MUA has to communicate with a "Mail Transfer Agent" (MTA), i.e. the email server. An MUA has NO way to communicate directly with another MUA.

  • Firefox w/Win 7 and Windows Live Mail does not auto-hyperlink from Send Link. I know cut-and-paste. Is there fix?

    On other computer, w/Vista, Windows Mail, clicking Send Link works perfectly, providing one click hyperlink. Running latest Firefox on both computers. Made Windows Live Mail default email. No help. Uninstalled Windows Live Mail and switched to thunderbird, made default. Didn't work.

    I'm searching for a solution as well.
    For now, when the compose message windows opens with the plain text link, I just click anywhere in the body of the message below the text. This will place the cursor at the end of the link. I then hit Enter, and the hyperlink becomes active.

  • The iPhone 3 and Windows Live Mail Calendar

    I have a few questions that I hope someone can answer.
    1. Is the Windows Live Mail Calendar compatible with the iPhone?
    2. If not, why not? Are there any plans for this to happen?
    3. If they are, how do I sync the two?
    Thanks!

    Yes, it is compatible and it syncs over the air.

  • BT Yahoo Toolbar and Windows Live Mail password se...

    I have been puzzling yet again why my auto log in to Windows Live Mail no longer works.
    Although I tick "remember me", after a reboot I am asked for my password again.
    I then came upon this link:
    http://www.i19777.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2169
    It seems the BT Yahoo Toolbar installer changes the registry settings. Even if the toolbar is uninstalled the registry remains the same and auto log in to WLM does not work.
    Downloading and installing "Make Messenger Remember Me" fixes the problem.
    Yes, I know it says "Messenger" but if you do not use it, it works just as well for WL Mail.
    This has been a pain for some time now and although I have been in contact with BT numerous times about this, they have never admitted that the Toolbar could be the problem.
    Will the moderators please forward this post to the tech guys so that this problem can be addressed?  

    Nice link and suggestion Smirnoff.
    I assume that toolbar sits in the BTYahoo browser, (don't use it here) which is being phased out I think, so it's unlikely BT tech guys will do anything.
    Even if the toolbar is uninstalled the registry remains the same and auto log in to WLM does not work  so "Make Messenger Remember Me" could be a useful tool for those still irritated by this who turn to another browser.

  • Sync PC Suite and Windows Live Mail - Possible?

    I am fed up!!!
    Apparently Nokia is not listening to their customers and instead diverts them to a damn Nielsen forum to write down all their frustration and needs again and again.
    Why is it so complicated to provide an easy syncing tool between Windows Live Mail calendar and the N8 and C7 or E52 phones i.e. their built-in calendars (e.g..). Yes Nokia, I have bought all three phones within a time span of 5 months and have NOW FINALLY DECIDED to end my Nokia-sympathy due to lack of listening support. It comes as a joke that the internet is full of grief towards this standard problem and that none seems capable to do something. Apparently none wants to do anything as the whole situation looks like a "friendly agreement" between Nokia and Microsoft. They call it Marketing, I call it short-term-wannabe-software- regulation-policy as an aim to support, e.g. Outlook!!!
    Goodbye Nokia. I'll turn to Apple! Please excuse my frustration
