Problems with PSE 8.0  (windows 7)

Hello,
PSE 8 doesn't work anymore on my PC with windows 7
Organizer opens well and also it is possible to import images, but it is not possible to give tags to images. So I cannot organize my images.
When I try to edit an image in Editor, Editor opens well, but no image is shown in Editor, so it doesn't work anymore.
I did repair the catalogue (no faults were detected) but I don't know what to do.....
It do not look like a complete crash? No blue screens or warnings.... and so I don't know what this is!
Yesterday I made a complete backup, inclusive all the tags en properties of the images.
Please help and thank you in advance!!

I did not use the trial version of PSE 7 but installed directly from a purchased CD.  The "registration" option under the help menu of the editor is not highlighted and there is no option to deactivate the serial number under help in either the editor or the organizer.  Therefore I must assume that Ankush is correct that there is nothing that I need to do prior to uninstalling PSE 7.
Also, am I correct to assume that since this original post was marked as a discussion and not a question, I do not need to close it in any way?
Thanks to all who have responded and offered assistance.

  • Problems with PSE 10 and Windows 7

    If I close PSE 10 and want to reopen it later, I have to restart my computer. Is there a way around that and will Adobe try to fix the bug or am I stuck with it?

    It seems as though the program is not fully closing on exit. Can you check the task manager after closing. Ctrl+Alt+Delete
    After opening task manager can you click on the processes tab to see what is running in the background.

  • Catalog backup problems with PSE 11

    Hi,
    I'm having terrible problems trying to backup my catalog to an external hard drive.
    My PC is running Windows 7 with 8 GB of internal memory. My external hard drive is formatted to FAT 32 and has 130GB of spare capacity. My catalog is 45GB.
    I have previously backed up the the catalog without any problems but can't remember if I did this before I upgraded to PSE 11.
    I initially tried doing a full backup but got an error part way through writing the 'breeze' data. Having read that the breeze data was only used for face recognition, I deleted the remaining breeze data files and tried again.
    I then encountered a problem when writing some of my early .jpg files. I couldn't see any obvious problem with these but tried removing them and runnning the back up again.
    This time it got a bit further but hung up on some .mpg files.
    I removed all video files and tried again.
    This time it got up to over 60% complete but it then hung up on some early files which had a 'description' 2002 rather than a straight date name to the file. I thought that there might be a problem with file names including ' 's ', so removed these and tried again.
    I then tried running Catalog 'optimize' and 'repair' (I didn't tick 'the re-index visual similarity data').
    I eventually got up to over 65% complete but couldn't get the backup to go past my 2007 files no matter what files I removed.
    I then tried doing an incremental backup using a Catalog file that I had created in 2011. This backup failed with 'an error encountered while writing.....WaldoData\waldo.cache'
    I now don't know what to try! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    FYI, looking at the backup Catalog files that I have previously created, it appears that only the first contains all the images from whole catalog with an equal number of .xml files.
    Two others which I created (which I can't remember were full or incremental backups) only have some of the images. I'm sure that this can't be right.
    I presume that for an intial backup the .xml files should run from B0000001 to Bnnnnnnn; the .jpg/.mpg/ etc from Bnnnnnnn+1 to B 2(nnnnnnn) and that when one runs an incremental back up the new .xml files are added from B2(nnnnnnn)+1 to B2(nnnnnnnn)+(mmmm) and the image files continuing for a further (mmmm). Is this correct?
    Otherwise what should one be seeing?
    Regards
    Mike

    Thank you for your information about my problem with PSE 11. I have since tried the programme on 2 different computers and it works fine. Seems like the problem is with my computer although my old PSE 10 works okay. I'd appreciate any ideas about what could be wrong with my computer to cause my photos to break up into various segments which don't join together particularly when I move them into 'before and after horizontal' or '......vertical' and even when zooming them.

  • Problems with shutdown, expose and window switching

    Hi there,
    Recently I've been having a few issues with OS X. First of all it wasn't shutting down properly -- the menu bar would disappear and it would look like it was going to shutdown, but it never did. I could move down to the dock (on auto-hide) and it would re-appear, at which point I can bring up a terminal window and use 'shutdown' to do the job. On startup I'd reset the PRAM, and then do a disk-check, but the problem keeps coming back.
    Subsequently, I've also been having problems with expose and switching windows (i.e. command-tab). Namely, neither of them work. Expose won't fire from either hot corners or the keyboard, and if I re-launch the app from the Apps folder (without trying to kill it first, I should say), it does nothing. Cmd-tab gets interpreted as just tab, and the keyboard shortcut for dashboard also fails (although I can start the dashboard from the dock).
    I read in another post about an invalid jpeg in the downloads folder being able to cause the Expose problem (seems like a most unlikely bug?). Anyway, I cleared all pictures from my downloads folder and functionality came back, but now it's gone again. It's really very frustrating as it makes moving between windows a lot more hassle.
    Any thoughts would be gratefully received.
    TIA,
    Mat

    This sounds interesting.
    Can you post a copy for the rest of us to see?
    As for actually helping you, and not just satisfying our curiousity, if you start cutting pieces of the code you will probably end up finding the source of the problem (and we won't have too big a program to handle). Since DSC is a likely suspect, you may want to start there.
    Also, are you creating an installer and using that to install? If not, you may wish to try that.

  • Problem With Captivate 4 and Windows 8

    Hi,
    I've a problem with Captivate 4 on Windows 8 projects :
    The mouse is not tracked.
    I've applied the last patch for this version (11/15/2011).
    Is there another patch for this ?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi there
    I know this will come off as sounding snarky, but please know it's honestly not intended that way,
    Windows 8?
    I never was able to make Captivate 4 run successfully on Windows 7. So I'm not the least bit surprised to hear it has issues with Windows 8!
    Personally, I'm thinking you are due for an upgrade to Captivate if you want it to work on Windows 8. But then again, I'm not even certain if Captivate 6 is Windows 8 compatible.
    Cheers... Rick

  • I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 last August 2013 and having problems with installing it on Windows 8.1?

    I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 last August 2013 and having problems with installing it on Windows 8.1.  Why am I having this problem?

    You can check you Adobe account online to see if the serial number is registered under your account.  If not then your only option will likely be to contact Adobe Support directly thru chat to see if they can provide you with a/the serial number. For them to do so will require you being able to prove ownership.

  • Problem with national characters on windows client

    Hello there,
    I'am having problem with national characters on windows client.
    All national data stored in NVARCHAR2 colums, applications (.net) works fine,
    but in sqlplus:
    select city from test_table;
    - everything ok, sqlplus shows national characters
    select dump(N'<national symbols>') from dual
    - returns
    Typ=96 Len=12: 0,191,0,191,0,191,0,191,0,191,0,191
    select * from test_table where city = N'<national symbols> '
    - always returns nothing
    As i understand the problem in
    sql query text (and national literals) convertion
    to servers "WE8ISO8859P1" encoding, Is it possible
    to solve the issue?
    Thanks in advance
    PS.

    N'<national symbols>', being part of an SQL statement, will be converted to the database character set (WE8ISO8859P1) before being parsed. Only if the client and the database are both 10.2 or higher, the client can encode the literal appropriately so that it survives this conversion.
    In earlier versions, you can do the encoding yourself. Instead of the N'<national symbols>' literal use the UNISTR function: UNISTR('\xxxx\yyyy\zzzz'), where U+xxxx, U+yyyy, U+zzzz are Unicode code points of your national characters.

  • Fragmentation problems with PSE 11

    I have just installed PSE & Premier Elements 11 on Vista Ultimate. When I try to edit my photos they become fragmented and look like a jigsaw puzzle. This does not happen with PSE 10 on the same computer. Can anyone tell me why this occurs?  Could it be a fault with the software?

    Thank you for your information about my problem with PSE 11. I have since tried the programme on 2 different computers and it works fine. Seems like the problem is with my computer although my old PSE 10 works okay. I'd appreciate any ideas about what could be wrong with my computer to cause my photos to break up into various segments which don't join together particularly when I move them into 'before and after horizontal' or '......vertical' and even when zooming them.

  • Few problems with PSE 11

    Hi everybody,
    I have a problem with my PS Elements 11. I was working on trial and then decided to buy full version, however few things seems to work different than on my trial and I can't find solution.
    1) When I copy one image to another it makes transparent layer on it altho capacity is set on 100% still. On my trial image copied or cuted to another pic was looking exactly as original and after I could lower transparency by lowering capacity.
    2) When I want to use normal brush and make just one spot, or paint with one line not with a lot of points or other symbols. I thought aerograph function is the reason but it paints with it and normal the same (as many symbols)
    3) When I select part of image with square selection tool it makes a circle with it or rounded field but somehow square selected image is finally copied. It seems it finds some borders on img by itself and changes selected square to it.
    I would be very glad if someone could help me to resolve those issues. I will feel free to post others also if I they will come to my mind.
    thanks!

  • Has anyone else had problems with their RAW editing window?

    I'm having real problems with my RAW editing window (the one that automaticaly pops up when you open a raw file). I've opened several images, but when I click on the different thumbnails on the left hand side the large preview image in the center doesn't change. Obviously I need to be able to see this to make the required changes.
    Any ideas/help you be greatly appreciated!!!

    Hi Kate,
    I haven't yet been able to replicate your problem. Will you please describe your workflow? Are you simply selecting multiple files from your computer and double clicking to automatically open in Camera RAW?
    Also curious, with all of your images open in the RAW editing window, what happens when you use the arrows near the bottom right? Does your image change?
    Cheers,

  • Problems with PSE 8 & Windows Live Photo Gallery

    I recently had to purchase a new laptop and it came preloaded with Windows 7. I installed PSE8 and have had no problems with photos I scanned,etc. But Windows 7 defaults import photos from my camera to Windows Live Photo Gallery. My problem is now I can't get PSE8 to import from the clipboard. It is grayed out and I can't click it. How dop I get my photos into PSE8 and then get the two programs to play right together?

      Open Organizer and click File à Get Photos & Videos à From Files & Folders
    Navigate to the folder used by Windows and press Ctrl+A to select all and hit open or get media.
