Problem opening picture in newly installed PSE 11

I click on a picture in My Pictures, I go to File, I click on Open WIth and if I am trying to open a NEF file, even though Photoshop Elements 11 comes as an option...picture will not open. And, same if I try a jpg or a tiff file..only there, PSE 11 does not even cme up a s an option to open with. In all cases error reads...NOT VALID WIN32 application. Please help

What happens if you try to open file after opening PSE Editor and then open from File->Open menu.
Also try this:
Try resetting the PSE preferences by
   1. Close Elements.
   2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Edit.
   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.
OR
GO to Edit->Preferences and you will see Reset Preferences on next launch
Click this button to ensure that all product preferences are reset to default settings when Elements Editor is restarted next. Available at Preferences > General.
Thanks,

Opening .jpg with "Open with" command after installing PSE 8.0

Can anyone tell me how to get PSE 8.0 to appear in the list of available programs (using Vista) when right clicking on a photo? All my previous versions of PSE (6.0, 7.0) have appeared in the list. While Photoshop Premiere elements is there, since I installed PSE 8.0 and uninstalled PSE 7.0, I cannot right click on a photo and open it into PSE 8.0. I've tried resetting default programs and adding to the list but it simply doesn't appear. I don't know if something on installation glitched, though the program works fine- except I cannot open a photo into it without going into the program, and then going to OPEN, which is tedious. I've never had this problem before and much is different in PSE 8.0, so I don't know if its me, my computer or something in the program?
Any ideas? I've tried everything I can think of, including trying ot make it the default program but it won't do that either.
Help!
Thanks in advance if you can help.

I had the same problem on my WinXP Pro SP3 with PSE8. Windows would not let me add PSE 8 to the Open with list of any file extension. I could use Chose Program, navigate to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 8.0\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe" and select it, but it would not be put into the Open with list. Same behaviour when I went from the explorer file extension list.
I finally found out that in the registry, there were old entries left from PSE 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 in key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\. While in PSE 3, 4, 6 and 7, the executables contained the version in their names (like Photoshop Elements 7.0.exe), PSE 5 and PSE 8 are both called PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe. This ambiguity led to Windows not adding PSE 8 in the Open with list. This only started with version 8, since before the names of the executables were all unique.
By investigating this I found out that there were leftovers from PSE 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 all over the registry, although I always uninstalled properly .
It took me quite a while cleaning this mess up.
Note: Do not alter your Windows Registry unless you know exactly what you are doing and have taken a backup of your system before!

There was a problem opening the catalog 'My Catalog' PSE 4.0

In the new PSE 4.0 I always get the message "There was a problem opening the catalog 'My Catalog'", then after pressing the start button again, the catalog starts. Is that the same error that was solved in Version 3.0 with the update 3.0.1.
That would be not very nice!!!! :(.

Have you done a catalogue recover?

Problem opening pictures in imessage

On two iphone5 with ios7 pictures in imessage are not opening; pictures say downloading but do not download. If I turn the phone off and then on the picture area says tap to download but nothing happens. When I am notified of a text with a picture the picture is present as a thumbnail before I unlock the phone but does not show up when the phone is unlocked. 2 ipads with ios7 do show the pictures without an issue. Ideas?

not sure why, but figured out a workaround. Phone set up to receive messages from 2 iphone numbers, and person sending was sending to both phone numbers. Sending message to only one of numbers allowed the pictures to show up.

Installed PSE 8 and am now unable to access RAW files through Camera Raw.

Help! I have installed PSE 8 and
now cannot access Raw files through Camera Raw click
on Editor and the photographs open in Editor.
I have tried installing the upda
te 8bi in the plug-in and there was already a plug-in there.
PSE6 worked fine on this system. Any help appreciated.

Firstly thanks to the people who
offered help. This is what I did and somehow the problem is solved. I installed PSE 8 on my old machine with XP and an old Xerox monitor and it worked OK. I uninstalled PSE 8 from the newer machine on Vista. Made sure all the adobe files for pug-ins had gone then reinstalled. I then tested the screen resolution of my monitor a HP w1907v, smaller resolutions made no difference but opening it up to max did. When I wish to open a RAW file click open click the photograph and in the bottom file format box make sure you are asking for RAW files to be opened and 'bingo'. This upgrade for PSE 8 has the latest CameraRaw on it but the problem was there from the first installation so perhaps it is a combination of screen resolution and making sure the file format for opening is specified. So after hours of effort a satisfactory outcome. I probably confused the issue by installing the plug-in when there was no need. PSE 8 will last me a long time!!!

Just installed PSE 12 and cannot Tag pics

I have had some issues with the newly installed PSE 12, but the biggest one is that I can not Tag my recently downloaded photos. When I try and Tag I get the message "Error Applying Keywor Tags".

Hi,
Can you please tell whether the photos you are trying to tag belong to any album?
If yes, please try creating a new dummy album < say test>
now try to tag your photos again, if it works now you can delete the dummy album you created just now.
Thanks,

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

the cc desktop app is used to install and update cc programs (and a few other thinigs). but that does not include 'opening' the installed programs.

After installing PSE 10 on OS X Lion, no longer able to select pictures from iPhoto library

I've downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements 10 on my MacBook Pro, which is running OS X 10.7.4. After installation and importing the photos from iPhoto, I noticed that I am no longer able to select images from my iPhoto library from other applications, such as Facebook, Address Book, etc. (ie; typically in a dialog to select a photo or image, simply browse to iPhoto library to get access to all Events, Albums, Faces, etc.).
This capability now seems to be broken even if I browse to the iPhoto Library using Finder. Showing Package Contents on the iPhoto Library reveals that all the images are there.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Drilling into the file structure of the PE Organizer is painful at best.

You assume too much. I am not mucking around with the iPhoto Library.
Here is an example of my problem:
Open Address Book
Select a Contact
Click Edit
Double Click the Photo icon
A dialog appears for me to "Choose" a photo
Click Choose...
Another dialog appears for me to browse to the photo that I would like to attach to that conract
I select my username under "Favorites", then expand the "Pictures" folder
When I click on iPhoto Library, I am no longer able to expand it and presented with the photos, events, faces, albums within it, but only get an icon for the iPhoto Library instead.
This is part of the way a Mac works, and is now broken. It exhibits this in Address Book and any other program, and it was working fine until I installed PSE 10.

Has anyone had a problem installing PSE Elements 8.

I have installed PSE Elements 8 from a new boxed CD onto a new Dell running Windows 7 Professional (64 Bit).
PSE has loaded without any warnings and I get to the welcome screen OK. Organiser works fine but if I try and start Edit it just circles around back to the Edit prompt. I have tried getting in via Fix in Organiser which then advises Loading Elements workspace but then drops me back to menu.
I have tried all the Tech Note suggestions but after hours of trying am still no further forward.
I even downloaded and installed the trial version but I this performs in the same way.
All suggestions welcome. Thanks

No luck.
PE Editor does not open with Ctrl/Alt/Shift nothing...zilch
Running PE Editor from this point using Open produces error message. PE Elements has stopped working - Close Program.
Thanks anyway.
Problem has now been escalated to senior tech team within Adobe.

Subject: Has anyone had a problem installing PSE Elements 8.
The only other suggestion is try re-setting the Editor preferences as this often fixes conflicts. You will also be able to check that this part of the application installed correctly.
Hold down the windows key to the left of Alt and press the letter E to launch Explorer
In the left side pane click on Computer
In the right pane double click on Program Files, then double click Adobe, then double click Photoshop Elements 8.0
Use the right hand scroll bar to move down the list of files and locate Photoshop Elements Editor With one hand holding down all three keys CtrlShiftAlt right click on the Editor file in the list and select open.
You should see a pop up box with the words Delete Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings File?
Click on Yes
Close down Elements and re-open it in the normal way.
Please let us know if that works.

Installed PSE 8 but can't open catalog :-(

I've installed PSE 8, upgrading from PSE 6. When I open the catalog it tells me that there is an earlier version catalog and would I like to make it compatible with PSE 8, to which I answer yes, I gave it a new name and clicked ok. It thinks for a long time and then I get a "not responding" message. I can't get into the organizer to do the recommendation in the book to convert the catalog. Any help greatly appreciated!

Yes, it seems like a problem with the main catalog. I haven't seen a failed conversion before that didn't write a conversion log. So there aren't many clues to go on. I have just one more suggestion -- run the utility psedbtool on your PSE 6 catalog:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/
Because you have both PSE 6 and 8 installed, you'll have to run it specially:
1. Start PSE 6 and do Help > System Info to find the folder path of your PSE 6 catalog folder.
2. Start a command prompt.
3. Type these two commands:
cd c:\psedbtool
.\psedbtool -printVolumeTable > output.log
4. Copy and paste the contents of c:\psedbtool\output.log here.

Problem installing PSE 8 on Mountain Lion

Hi, I'm having trouble installing PSE 8 on Mountain Lion. It worked just fine on Lion, then I upgraded to ML, and it wouldn't open. I deleted and tried to reinstall PSE 8, and have not gotten beyond the "Progress" pane with a message that "a required component has failed to install correctly", with the error:
"Adobe Anchor Service
Error:
Error 2."
I have tried a bunch of different things; running the CS cleaner tool, disabling my virus software, repairing disk permissions, restarting my computer, and deleting all Adobe files from these locations:
/Users/<<username>>/Library/Application Support >> The Adobe folder
/Users/<<username>>/Library/Preferences >> Anything with com.adobe
/Library/Application Support >> folder named Adobe
/Library/Preferences >> Anything with com.adobe
/Applications >> Application files
/Applications/Utilities >> The Adobe Updater
I've even created another admin account on my computer and tried to install PSE 8 there, but I still get the same error.
Any help to get this sucker installed is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I looked a little more into fixing the issue, and it turns out that I missed the top level Library > Application Support > Adobe folder. Once that was deleted, my problem was solved.
I did find this article helpful, for anyone else who is having similar issues: http://www.cultofmac.com/90060/how-to-completely-uninstall-software-under-mac-os-x-macrx/
Thanks again for your help, Barbara!

Problem opening multiple pictures in Photoshop

Problem opening multiple pictures in Photoshop. OldBob1957 has given me some suggestions on how to overcome this problem. I tried to Edit.Purge>All, Reset Preferences, Delete the Adobe Photoshop x Prefs.psp folders and Ctrl+Alt+Shift on Photoshop startup. Did not work, what next? Delete all the PSP folders.? There are 45 more in my computer. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Noel:
I reset the max memory to the high side as suggested but the results when I opened the pictures and changed them was the same. I could open four but nto the fifth one.
Lyndon
PS: In the event you haven't seen the start of the problem, I thought I would include it here:
I am working on a picture file, jpegs, changing the size, the level, etc. I open several pictures usually
3 or 4 and when I try to open the next I receive a pop up error message that says: "Could not
complete your request because of a program error.” This has just started to happen recently,
probably since I upgraded to CS6. Previously I could work on a file and have 100 or so pictures
open and still be able to open additional pictures. I have downloaded and in installed all available
updates and the message I receive when I check for updates is: “Your applications are up-to-date
as checked less than a minute ago.” I tried to Edit>Purge>All, Reset Preferences, Deleted the
Adobe Photoshop Ver. 6 Prefs.psp folder and pressed Ctrl+Alt+Shift on Photoshop startup and
deleted Adobe Photoshop Settings file. Did not work, what next? Delete all the PSP folders? There
are 45 more in my computer. Any help will be appreciated.
