PS Elements 12 comes up with empty menus

I have a new Win7 PC and installed PS Elements 12. It was working fine initially and I worked on a few pics successfully. Then today, when I tried to start it with the shortcut, nothing happened. So I right-clicked a pic and opened PS that way. That worked, but the menus are empty except for little triangles. I've seen some posts about a host file entry, which I tried. I've also saw something about screen resolution so I played with that a bit, to no avail. I haven't changed anything about the PC since PSE was working, so not sure what's going on. Please advise.

Moving this discussion to the Photoshop Elements forum.
Throughmyeye what resolution is your screen? Do you have a HiDPI display?

ITunes stores comes up with empty page

Ok Guys,
I upgraded to iTunes 10.4.0.80 and things went south with iTunes store. It won't show anything when i click on the iTunes stores.It appears that it is trying to connect to the stores, but comes back with the empty page and showing nothing but a big iTunes apple logo. I also noticed that, it is taking **** of a time to sync to iPhone too, i meant to say it got stuck at backing up operation, I have to unplug and restart the itunes for it to work. This is all see when i click on Itunes store. Please let me know if you guys find a solution to correct this problem.
Thanks

There is a solution. First off look into any antivirus that
At he running and also if you all uninstalled iTunes then did you
All also delete the folders that exist in your respective
Programs files folders? That is a required step and really cannot
Stress enough how much antivirus effects iTunes look into the
Things it blocks the sheer fact is the problem is the iTunes
Store cannot contact the server.
Take a first or second look at these articles and follow all the
Listed steps and before you do them disable your five
Protection programs.
Here are helpful articles:

You must follow step 2 exactly for the reinstall to work properly.

Does Adobe Photoshop Elements come bundled with Adobe Bridge? Or is Bridge a separate purchase?

Does Adobe Photoshop Elements come bundled with Adobe Bridge? Or is Bridge a separate purchase?

Apparently there was a change in Elements 9.
From the PsE forum:
Bridge is no longer included with PSE. If you buy PSE anywhere except the Mac App Store you get Organizer instead. The app store version doesn't have organizer.
and from a link therein:
A lot of Mac folks are unhappy about Adobe’s decision to include Organizer with Elements 9 in place of Adobe Bridge, which came with previous Mac versions. (The Organizer used to be just for Windows.) If you have an older version of PSE that included Bridge, you can still use it with Elements 9…

No, that is done deliberately, since letting other programs poke around in the iphoto library is the fastest known way to corrupt it and make it wither up and die, along with your photos. If you want to use PSE with iphoto you have two choices:
1. Set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto. Edit them, then save without changing the name or format and iphoto will remember your last saved edits + original, although you have to lose the edits to see the original again. You may need to set the editor prefs>saving files>on first save to save over existing to make this work.
2. Export the photos from iphoto, use file>open in PSE, make all the changes of any sort that you like, save the file, and import it to iphoto as a new file.

Hi,
Which operating system are you running on?
Try starting the organizer while holding down the shift key. Hopefully, it should load the Catalog Manager.
Select your current catalog and click on the Repair button. Once it has finished, click on the Open button to see if the catalog opens.
Good luck,
Brian

I have a MBP 15" with iPhoto 9. When right clicking on icon in dock 3 iPhoto libraries come up; one empty, one with 35,000 photos and one with 30,000 photos. How can I delete the empty one and merge the other two without getting duplicates?

You can delete the empty one by dragging it to the trash ( test everything before emptying the trash)
Merging libraries requires iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - it is the only current solution to merging libraries

Hi Johnson,
the maximum request size is 10000 characters. To translate larger documents you'll need to break them into smaller chunks. When using the HTML mode, make sure you send a complete element, for instance the whole <p> element up to and including the </p>.
Also make sure not to break requests in the middle of a sentence. Translator needs whole sentences to translate. You can use the BreakSentences method to find sentence boundaries. Breaksentences is also subject to the 10000 character request size limit.
Let us know if this helps,

Does the adobe photoshop elements 11 come with an instruction manual

does the adobe photoshop elements 11 come with an instruction manual

Are you just starting with PSE and no previous experience? If so I sympathise because I found the Adobe Help function very frustrating and unhelpful because it is features based rather than functionality in grades of expertise.
Start with tutorials on the Organiser work space and then Editor work space to familiarise yourself with the functions of the work spaces. However be aware that the you will not grasp full functionality until you have used PSE for a while.
If you are starting out wanting to process images then I found the concept of "workflow" the most useful way to approach PSE. That is;
Import images from camera
Sort images into ones worth processing. I use my camera's software to do this. Use a star rating. (PSE recognises this).
Import to PSE for processing
Process RAW images (if applicable).
Process converted images (PSD of TIFF probably the best). Use guided edit to start with.
Save processed images to JPEG for printing.
Hope this helps.

To get Photo Elements to Install when getting an ERROR 7 on a Macintosh:
After Hours of Internet searches and a few more hours with the Adobe Call Center in India…
Set Permissions to “Read and Write” in Get Info to “Everyone” for the
/Library/Fonts
/Library /Preferences
/User/Library/Preferences
/Applications
Then “Apply” to “Enclosed Folders”
Uninstall Adobe Air, then Reinstall it
Rename these two folders.
Mac HD>library>app support>Adobe>caps
>>>BUT FIRST delete media.db file under caps
Mac HD>library>app support>Adobe>backup
Move any offending font families OUT of the /Library/FONT Folder to the Trash (they will be auto-reinstalled during the installation)
Log out, then Log back in as ROOT user.
Then install off your CD or downloadable install file.
I hope this saves the next poor guy or gal the hours and hassle…

Adobe Premiere Elements 13 comes with a new tab called eLive. Where is it?

Thanks for the reply.
The availability of Elements Online features can sometimes be country dependant. But, I had not run into any mention of that for
eLive (Elements Live), the new feature in Premiere Elements 13.
I will have to look deeper into that. If you get any information on this from Adobe in your country, please let us know.
Best wishes

Why does iTunes delete my library every time I turn my computer on? All my music is still on my computer but when I open iTunes it comes up with the scan media page. I have to redo my playlists and it takes forever. Can someone help??

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied and renamed asiTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Even if you have the media you can use selected steps from the tip to ensure that you don't lose settings and data from the device as a result of switching libraries.
A large number of users with this issue have been using AVG Anti-Virus which appears to be implicated in the problem. AVG have released a patch which might help, so if you use AVG then I would update that first. I'd also be interested to know which AV you use in case others may cause similar issues. I recommend excluding the iTunes folder from any real-time and scheduled AV scanning process. Another possible cause could be automatic backup tools.
