PSE 1.0 Vista and actions

Hi,
I have old PSE 1.0 and it seems to run smoothly with Vista Business edition. However, I can't anymore add new actions. I have tried to install actions to
"Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\Previews\Effects" folder and I have removed all files in "Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements x\Previews\Cache\Effects Cache" folder.
For some reason my PSE doesn't create new cache files. Can anybody help?
Br,
Pekka

Hi Pekka,
Well, to be quite honest, I'm surprised you got it to go at all.
Officially only 5 and 6 are "supposed" to work and 5 with a patch.
Cheers

  • PSE 7 or 8 and vista 64

    Is there a way to get PSE 7 or 8 to run on vista 64?  I can install and open the program.  I can also use the organizer and the quick fix tools, but when I try to open the editor, it say PSE editor has stopped working.  "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"  It never gives me a solution.
    I bought PSE 7 in July for my new computer, but the box doesn't say compatible only with vista 32.  After much headache, I gave up.  I just bought PSE 8, thinking the new version would work, but it doesn't either.  I guess I can wait until I upgrade to windows 7 (which PSE 8 is supposed to work), but would really like to use it now.

    Adobe doesn't provide support for PSE 7 or earlier on Vista 64, though many people have reported that it runs just fine:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_PSE_and_Vista
    While Adobe has committed in writing that PSE 8 will run on Windows 7, they don't say if they'll support Windows 7 64-bit (Windows 7 has 32- and 64-bit flavors, just like Vista and XP).   It wouldn't surprise me if Adobe declines to support Windows 7 64-bit, just as they have with Vista.
    However, the problems you're experiencing are very possibly not related to Vista 64. See this FAQ for troubleshooting PSE Editor crashes:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_Troubleshooting_Editor_ crashes
    Finally, you could try downloading the 30-day free trial of PSE 8 from Adobe.com.

  • Brushes and Actions PSE 12 or 13

    Can I install Brushes and Actions to PSE 12 or 13?

    Hi paperinvite,
    Yes, there is an option to Load brushes/ actions exported from PSE.
    a) For Brushes, it is in fly out menu of Brush preset picker. I am attaching the snapshot for the same.
    b) Similarly, for Actions it is in the flyout menu of Actions panel.
    Hope this is the information you were looking for. Let me know if this helps!

  • TS1717 I have been running Itunes on windows vista and recently loaded Itunes on my Lap top which runs on Windows 7.  When I try to play my music the Lap top only play sample music.  Any suggestions?

    I have a desk top which has Windows Vista.  On this computer I have been running Itunes for a long time.  My new computer is a Lap top and it runs Windows 7.
    I recently loaded Itune on the new computer. I attemted to use Easy Transfer to transfer my Music but was unable to connected the two computers so I transferred my music to a external hard drive and loaded the music on the new computer.  I have the folders and files carefully and they appear to match.  When I try to run Itunes on the new computer I am unable to access the new music.  Itune always goes to the sample music.  The only difference I can come up with is Windows Vista and Windows 7.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Are you trying to use the Help -> Updates method?
    Both those patches need to be manually applied to PSE 9.

  • Customizing Date Formats in PSE 7 on Vista 64

    I've just installed PSE 7 on Vista 64 SP1 (previously I was running it on XP SP1. It seems to work very well but I now find I'm unable to customize the date format the way I like it ("Sun 11 Jan 2009").
    Previously I'd used the trick of creating a DWord called ForceDictionary with value 1 in the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\7.0\Organizer and creating a zstring.dct file as described here:
    DPX, "PSE 6 Feature Requests" #28, 19 Mar 2008 7:13 pm.
    Things seem different in Vista: PSE now stores its configuration in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Softare\Adobe\photoshop elements\7.0\Organizer. Adding ForceDictionary here seems to have no effect and I'm stuck with the MM/DD/YYYY format.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    thanks
    P.S: I'm running on a very fast machine - a 3.2GHz Core i7 Extreme and PSE7 is pretty fast: with ~70K photos in my catalog all tagging operations (e.g.. find all 44K images with tag X) complete in ~2 seconds.
    Scrolling from picture to picture is still not as fast as I'd like it to be though - it takes almost a second for a picture to come into focus as I move from pictures to picture while the organizer displays one picture at a time.
    Interestingly, full screen view (F11) is much faster with no perceptible delay - the pictures snap into focus immediately.

    The description of the zstring.dct file seems to be no longer available (it was in a post in an old version of this forum) so here it is:
    Create a file called zstring.dct in the location described in previous posts. The file contents are as follows (the double quotes are part of the file):
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternFull=M/d/yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternSimple=M/d/yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternLong=MMMM d, yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternLongUnknownDay=MMMM ?, yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternMonthDay=MMM d"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternTimelineTip=MMM d yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternLongUnknownMonth=?, yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternSimpleYearMonth=M/yyyy"
         "$$$/PtDateTimeUtil/DateFormatSpecifierWesternMonthYear=MMM yyyy"
    You should then edit the date formats (after the equals sign) as you desire. The formats WesternFull and WesternSimple control the Organizer's date display in the main window and properties pane (and those are the only ones I bother to edit). My preferred date format is "ddd d MMM yyyy" (e.g., "Thu 11 Oct 2007").

  • Error message with Vista and 7.2: Windows-No Disk Exception Processing Mess

    I just got a new Dell computer with Windows Vista and I am trying to put iTunes on it. I can install it fine from the original CD, and then I am prompted to update it to 7.2. After updating, this is the message that I get: Windows-No Disk, Exception Processing Message 0xc0000013 Parameters 0x7620023C 0c847CDB4C 0x7620023C (Cancel Try Again Continue). If I click on any button countless times, iTunes does open up but then I get the blue screen dump message. I have installed and uninstalled it many different times and have tried any of the additional updates/patches with no effect. I did not see this message anywhere else in the forum, anyone able to help?

    Unexplained Crashes, lock-ups, Failure to boot and boot-looping in Vista and XP and MAC OS-X.
    Have a USB2 external hard drive hooked up to your system? A number of these devices are starting to show up as the cause of the problems listed above. The cause has been linked to drives that were manufactured a year or more ago. Note I said manufactured not purchased. The cause is poor USB 2.0 specifications that the drive case manufactures followed which has deteriorated with age causing the above failures. If this happens to you try disconnecting your external drive and see if your problem goes away. A couple of multifunction printers have also been the cause of similar problems but most of these have higher visibility on internet search engines than the external hard drives. 
    Sorry, no KB article link. The above is from my reseller, who deals in imaging workstations exclusively.

  • ThinkVantage Active Protection for Windows XP, Vista, and 7 missing from driver matrix

    Recently, while checking the Software link: http://support.lenovo.com/ca/en/documents/ht037696
    I noticed:

    If you try to follow the links to the ThinkVantage Active Protection System, you are presented with a document labeled: ThinkVantage Active Protection System for Windows 8 (32-bit) - Laptop or a document labeled: ThinkVantage Active Protection System for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) – Notebook
    No reference to Windows XP, VISTA or Windows 7 in the current version of the documents, yet the text file pointed to by the download links states that this driver still supports all the older ThinkPads and is applicable to Windows 7 and VISTA. The text file does say that Windows XP support has been withdrawn with this release, and that XP users should use the previous version. It does not, however, provide a link to any document or mechanism where an XP user can obtain the previous driver.
    So, is the document correct, or is the text file correct?
    Where is the current driver for VISTA and Windows 7?
    When I went to the support sites to see the supporting documents there, I discovered that the ThinkVantage Active Protection entries were gone from the R61, R500 and T500 driver matrices. The only reference I could find to the ThinkVantage Active Protection System was in the above mentioned SOFTWARE link.

    Still no change to the driver matrices.  ThinkVantage Active Protection is still missing. There has been a change in the web site, as follows:

    So now there are numerous separate entries, but none of them claim to support any 'legacy' machines. Most of the above entries point to the same driver (at present).  The puzzling aspect to all this is that if you read the text documents that accompany most of the above driver packages, you will note that the text document claims that the driver supports quite a number of legacy machines. That information just never made it to the web page.
    So do I manually update a driver because the text document says it is applicable to my legacy R500, or 'believe' the web page which states that only some current models are supported, but not the R500, T500 or R61.   
    Very inconsistant and highly unprofessional.

    My apologies about not explaining further about disabling SPDIF passthrough. See the steps below to enable DDL encoding.
    ***Before proceeding please make sure that you've purchased, installed and activated the DDL pack***
    . Open Creative Audio Console, go to the Decoder tab to disable driver level encoding and enable SPDIF passthrough (this is done by selecting SPDIF passthrough or any similar option that enable the use of an external decoder) instead of using the built-in decoders.
    2. Open up your playback devices window (right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select playback devices) and set analog speakers (not SPDIF) as your default device. This is VERY IMPORTANT step, or else you get the "the device is busy" error when enbaling DDL encoding.
    3. In the Audio Console, select the Encoder tab and enable DLL encoding.
    Note:
    When DDL encoding is enabled, it makes exclusi've use of your SPDIF connection so, no passthrough is possible. The default output format when using DDL encoding is 48KHz/6 bits. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) when DLL encoding is enabled, then please change their output device to analog speakers instead of SPDIF.
    To use back SPDIF passthrough (when playing back media with a pre-encoded audio source), open up Audio Console and disable DDL encoding and in the Playback Devices window change the default device to SPDIF. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) then please change their output device back to SPDIF. You may also wish to change back your output format to 92KHz/24 bits (right click on SPDIF and select properties -> Advanced tab).

  • Problem with Java and Windows (Mainly Vista and UAC)

    Hi all,
    I am having a problem with a program that I've devoloped. The program itself is packaged as a jar and I plan to deploy it across multiple platforms eventually however right now i am only concerned about windows based systems. I have made an installer for a windows baised systems using NSIS to install the software files. I made the installer as I need several java packages to be installed so the program would work (JAI, J3D, JAI ImageIO) and I also require the program to have fileassociations on windows.
    I know that this is not what java is about, however the majority of the users will be on windows baised systems so I've decided that OS specific installers is the best option.
    During the process I have noticed that there are several key problem with java for this type of application!
    The first issue that I have come across is getting file associations to work on java. As a .jar is not an excutable it is not possible to directly associate a filetype with it in java so to overcome this I currently run the program from a .bat files and also the program requires large memory so this also allows me to run the program with -xmx. The batch file that I use is :
    <code>
    cd PATH TO PROGRAM
    start javaw -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -Xmn100M -Xms500M -Xmx1000M -jar "PATH TO PROGRAM\program.jar" %1 -vram 134217728
    pause;
    </code>
    Ok so all this appears to work fine and allows windows to have file associations and start the program and thats all works perfectly but this is a non-ideal solution. Has anyone got any advice on improving this?
    The next problem that I have appears to be a problem with Vista and UAC (user access control). When a user installs the program and installs the program into the program files directory I found that the program did not work and kept saying that I did not have access to the files in the current directory. This is a problem as I read and write settings files during program execution.
    On a Vista system UAC prevents file write operations into the Program Files directory unless the program has requested elevated status even if the user is a full administrator. The probem is that there appears to be no real way to achieve this under java that I'm aware of...
    Has anyone else had this probem and has a suitable solution?
    Any advice on these issues would realy be appricated.
    Regards
    Joey

    Ok so i've kinda found a solution, its not ideal but its very good. I found this program called Elevate
    A link to the site I got it was
    http://www.wintellect.com/cs/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2007/03/27/elevate-a-process-at-the-command-line-in-vista.aspx
    This program allows you start java with a UAC dialog for high access using
    Elevate java -jar myjar.jar
    This then allows you to have full access using java... I guess it could be dangerous but it does the job.

  • A Troubleshooting Guide for Windows Vista and iTunes 8 - user supported

    ITunes 8 and Windows Vista can be an explosive combination. Having helped to troubleshoot some problems for people, I decide to consolidate my information all down to one post. The information comes from various sources, and I will try to annotate where it came from. Please let’s keep this a solutions listing post. So people can come to it when they have a problem and easily find a solution.
    *ITunes will not install:*
    ITunes will sometimes not install or the installation will hang up under Vista. First I will give some generalized steps to take in order of priority, and then get into some specifics.
    General
    *1. Turn off your Anti-Virus Software.* Some A/V software will prevent the installer from accessing the Windows System Files causing the install to Bork.
    *2. Uninstall third-party Audio-Video Codecs.* Installing iTunes also installs Quicktime which installs the necessary codecs to play its supported files. Some codec packs, such as DivX and XviD have the ability to read these files, and their method of decoding these files can cause conflicts with the Quicktime installation. Even third-party CD Burning (Roxio, Nero, and the like) software can cause this problem. Once iTunes is installed, you can reinstall these codecs without any ill effects.
    *3. Disable Windows Defender.* Windows Defender is a resident A/V type program native to Windows Vista. It can also sometimes cause conflicts during installation. To disable it, go to the Windows Defender tab in your Control Panel, and chose disable in the dialogue box.
    Specific
    *1. When I install iTunes, the installation stops and I get error message 2738.* This error message means that the Visual Basic Script is not being installed properly or it could be disabled. To fix this we need to re-initialize the Visual Basic Script server. Do the following:
    In the search panel of the start bar, type cmd.exe.
    When the search results are listed, right click on cmd.exe and select run as administrator.
    Type in the following at the command prompt: regsvr32 vbscript.dll and hit enter.
    Run the iTunes install program again.
    *2. ITunes installed properly, but now I am stuck in a reboot loop.*
    This behaviour is a known problem to Apple and they are working on it. What is happening, when you run the program, it is involking a repair check of your installation. Beaconfield came up with a work around to use until Apple patches the software.
    “Navigate to C:\Program Files\iTunes\ and right click on iTunes.exe then select Sent To > Desktop. This will create a new icon that should load iTunes just fine.”
    I know there are more issues out there, but these seem to be the most common. If anyone has anymore solutions, please add them to this post. Like I said initially, I would like this post to be an easy reference for troubleshooting.
    Thanks again,

    Ok, so I saved my Windows Media Player playlist as M3U files and imported them into iTunes. Wow! What a complete mess that made of my library.
    All songs that were on the playlists (hundreds of songs) were duplicated in my iTunes library. iTunes would show two entries for each song. When I right clicked and choose 'Show in Windows Explorer' both entries point to the same song, it just shows up twice in iTunes.
    I cleared my iTunes library file and am starting over. I'm thinking about just going back to Windows Media Player. I've been listening to music off my Blackberry and it's really been fine. Just seemed a shame that my iPod was sitting in a drawer because of all the issues I'm having with iTunes and Vista.
    The original problem I had months ago was that iTunes crashed on Vista and lost all my Playlists. I was so upset I put all my music on my SD card on my Blackberry, because Windows Media Player makes it so easy to back up your playlists. They are saved as files and can be included in any automatic backups (I have scheduled backups to another hard drive)
    I thought with this new version of iTunes I could at least export the playlists to files so they can be backed up, I just don't know if I can face re-creating the playlists in iTunes.

  • Unable to load PSE 10 disks 2 and 3 of 3

    I purchased  PSE 3 from Costco and successfully installed the first disc. I was unable to install disc 2 and therefore, disc 3. When I tried to install the second disc, I received this message: : "The installation package is not supported by the processor type. Contact your product vendor." I emailed Costco with all of the information and got this reply: "Please contact the technical support for that software listed in your literature as there may be a setting somewhere that needs to be adjusted.
