Prevent Photoshop elements 4 from opening

How can I prevent PE4 from opening in order to view attached .jpg files in an e-mail?
Can anyone suggest another default viewer to see these attached pictures?
WinXP Home,

Since you have Windows XP, I'd just change .jpg file associations back to the Windows default viewer.."Windows Picture and Fax Viewer". It's already on XP so no need to download something unless you want to view .PSD files.
To change file associations, right click on any .jpg file and select "Opens With" from the menu. Select "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" from the list. Since you want the setting to be sticky, insure the box at the bottom of the dialog box that says something like "always open this type of file with this program" is checked. You can always go back and change the association if you change your mind.

Preferences stopping Photoshop Elements Editor from opening

I have Photoshop Elements 5.0 (with the 5.0.2 update installed) on Windows 7 and for a while I couldn't get it to open, I'd click on the shortcut and the start-up window thing would open (the thing with the patents and 'registered to...' etc), but it would always stop responding when it got to "Scanning for presets". I found the solution to this problem on another thread, which was to delete the preferences file from the Photoshop folders. After doing this I can open the Editor again and it works perfectly right up until I stop working, then the next time I try to open the Editor I get the same problem, which can again be temporarily fixed by deleting the preferences file- so basially I know the problem is with the preferences.
I know I could just delete the preferences file every time I wanted to use Photoshop and it would only be a minor irritance but ideally I'd like to fix it properly. Does anyone have any ideas?

Try running the compatibility tool. Choose Find & Fix problems under the Troubleshooting Heading via the control panel or see tutorial.

Photoshop elements does not open, says "gathering user info...."

photoshop elements does not open, says "gathering user info...."

Hi,
Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
Solution 1:
1. Close Elements.
2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
Solution 4:
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.
Solution 5: Try with admin account or right click and select run as admin. or try directly from .exe

I downloaded photoshop elements 10 from amazon but i cannot find it. how do i install?

I am a new Mac user. I downloaded Photoshop Elements 10 from Amazon. I cannot find it. How do I find and install?

Since you're a new Mac user, you've probably used Safari for the download. First check in the Downloads folder which should be in your Dock. And/or, open Preferences in Safari (Cmd - ,) and in "General" see what "Save downloaded files to:" says.

Hi,
Can you please confirm whether the volume on which you are installing Photoshop Elements is Case Sensitive or Case In-Sensitive? To find this out you will need to perform the following steps:
1. Launch /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app
2. Click on the Disk from the left panel (Not the Partition)
3. Click on the Partition Tab
4. Check the text that is written in the Format Tab. Is it Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)?
If it is Case-sensitive, Journaled, then you will have to make this volume as Case-Insensitive by selecting Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as PSE is currently not supported on case sensitive volumes.
Thanks,
Tarun

Is there an instruction sheet detailing how to install Photoshop Elements 13 (from a DVD disk), on a Windows 8.1 computer, and if so, where do I find it?

Googled for an instruction sheet. Got the following.
https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/getting-started/install-pse.html
and
https;//helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-installation-errors.html
(Don't know why the second one didn't turn into a link, that's the url that printed out at the bottom of the page)
In any case it doesn't matter. I returned it to the store where I bought it.
Rule #1; Don't use a product if the people who produce that product (software, hardware, etc.) don't properly support it.
User forums and\or chat lines, are useful and may help. But! They do not constitute proper support (not for installation purposes anyway).

I've installed Photoshop Elements 12 from a CD onto my PC laptop. I'm thinking about buying a tablet, so was wondering if (a) can I install on a 2nd device (b) can I use the serial number online as I won't beable to install from a CD, and (c) will I beable to choose a mac, after the initial was on a PC???? Thanks Martin

A single user license allows for having activated installations on two machines. An Elements license allows for either platform in many cases (recently not the case from what I've seen). If you have the disc, see if it contains the Mac installation files... if it does then you should be able to install them via a download as well. I cannot answer with certainty for the last question since it relies on the previous question. Personally, I would not let an inexpensive piece of software dictate an expensive hardware purchase decision.

Can't find Twain plug in for Photoshop Elements 12 from App store

I'm running OSX Mavericks and have purchased Photoshop Elements 12 from the App Store. I want to be able to scan things into Elements but the import option is grayed out. I've tried to follow these directions (TWAIN not installed | Photoshop Elements 9 and later) however the file path they describe does NOT exist on my Elements 12 install. There is no ImportModules folder, nor is there even an Optional Plug-Ins folder. I've tried searching (and setting the search to include hidden, system files) but they are not on my machine that I can find.
Any suggestions? I hate to kiss $80 goodbye.

In the app store version, everything is inside the program itself. Right-click PSE>show package contents>contents and you will see it. You will need to authenticate with your OS X password to be able to copy the ImportModules folder to the regular plugins folder.
