Pse 11 organizer does not open

Organizer has worked for a number of years. Starting today it will not open. Editor does but not organizer.

Thanks, but repair does not come up as an option

  • Elements 11 Organizer does not open

    Dear Sirs,
    I have bought PSE 11 but it doesn't work! Organizer doesn't open normally
    and the different solutions given by the community did not resolve my
    problem .
    I am desperate! What can I do more?
    Best regards

    I suspect it may have something to do with your monitor settings. Go to the control panel and check dpi scaling under Appearance or Display.
    It’s not uncommon to see a setting of 125% or higher to improve screen readability but PSE requires a dpi of 96 or 100%
    Whilst the Editor Menu will appear at 120% to 149% the Organizer Menu (and the advanced button in downloader) won’t. Sometimes the mouse or tool cursors are distorted.
    Try a setting of 115% to 120% otherwise use 100%. A common display resolution, notably for notebooks/laptops, and netbooks is 1024 x 768 but PSE requires a screen height of 800 for full functionality. If your height resolution is out of the range 768 to 800 try experimenting with the slider/settings.

  • PSE 8 Editor does not open

    PSE 8 editor has stopped opening. I've tried opening it from the organizer and from the welcome page. The loading-the-editor box pops up like it's going to open, but then the loading box goes away with no editor opening. I tried un-installing and reinstalling the program to no avail. The computer has Windows 7, 64-bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated... the PSE organizer portion is pretty worthless without the editor!

    It sounds like you could be experiencing a conflict with a scanner driver.
    Go back the Program Files (x86) >>Plug-ins>>Import/Export and delete the TWAIN driver.
    Elements will work without it, but if you have scanner and want to scan directly PSE you'll need to install an up to date driver from the manufacturer's web site.
    If you don’t use a scanner there’s nothing to worry about.
    If that doesn’t work you may need to re-build the preferences.
    You do that by holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift whilst simultaneously clicking Edit on the welcome screen.
    When you see a pop-up behind the welcome screen click yes, to delete settings.
    Then re-start Elements and it will re-build the preferences.

  • Elements Organizer does not open. Should I just forget it and use Lightroom?

    I have Elements 11 and reciently instaled Lightroom 5. Elements Organizer no longer opens. Should I be concerned and just use the ghtroom Library?

    Lightroom is more powerful and robust than Organizer. So yes go ahead if you don't need people recognition.
    You can set up te PSE editor as your external editing app in LR preferences and then you can right-click on images in the Library and choose Edit in pse.

  • Pse 10 Organizer does not load

    This is what has been happening Pse 10 organizer NEVER works it continues to lock-up. I have tried to use the repair and optimizer tools with no luck they lock-up as they are running and do nothing. I have deleted the thumbnail catch and rebuilt it that worked for one day and now the same thing.  I load the organizer and as soon as it try to do anything it freezes up.  any Ideas or help would be great.  ps the editor seems to work.

    The Organizer preferences may have become corrupted, needing to be automatically re-built on a re-start.
    Close Elements.
    Click the Start Button and then your user name (in place of mine) and navigate to:
    C: 99Jon >> AppData >> Roaming >> Adobe >> Elements Organizer >>10.0 >> Organizer
    Delete the PSA file (with key symbol) and delete Status.dat
    Re-start the program

  • Photoshop Elements 8.0 Organizer does not open

    Have been using this program for sometime.  Today, under file, I thought I clicked the print photos option.  Then realized I did not want to do that just yet. Another menu had opened and without really looking, I clicked cance.  When I did, elements shut down.  When I tried to reopen, the welcome screen came up with the running bar at the bottom saying "Gathering User Info".  It never really seems to finish.  When I click on the organizer button, the program closes.  After a reboot, I was able to open the organizer by using the "All programs", Photoshop, and then the welcome screen came up with the running bar on the Organizer button as well as at the bottom.  Organizer opened.  I was able to complete my task.  Thought maybe there was an issue with the short cut.  So I closed the program.  Now, can not access Organizer from the short cut or the "All Programs" button.  Is there anything to try before I uninstall and reinstall? And if I need to do so, will my tags still be there when I reinstall?

    Computer was off for few days r/t bad snow storm, power outage and work schdule.  When I booted back up, currently the organizer is working as it should.  Thanks, for reviewing this with me. 

  • Organizer does not open

    I have installed Elements 12.  When I start the program I try to open the Organizer.  Nothing happens.  What do I need to do?

    Well try this:
    Start PSE to get to the Welcome screen.
    Hold down the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys and click Organize. Keep holding down the keys until you see the Catalog window.
    Select your catalog and click Repair.  Select “repair anyway” even if PSE doesn’t find problems.
    Then for good measure, click Optimize.
    If repairing resolves your issue then fine else repeat the above steps, but click New to create a new catalog.  If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works fine, then problem can be old catalog.
    try and let me know your comments.

    PSE 12: Organizer: Cannot initalize directX and does not open! Have directX! What to do?

    Hallo and thank you
    It did not solve the problem (Organizer does not start) but it changed
    in so far as the start menu comes back after I press ok.
    I am still looking for the real solution.

  • 'organizer does not support the colorspace in the file' PSE 9

    Does anyone know how to fix th eproblem of PSE 9 Organizer not importing a jpeg picture because 'The organizer does not support the colorspace in the file', short of a reboot?
    And no the obvious 'fix the colorspace' is not the solution. This has happened to me twice in quick succession. First it was one of a batch of photos all taken at the same time, with the same camera, with the same settings. I missed checking the first of the batch when downloading them to PSE, then when I came back to this photo after downloading the rest of the batch I got the colorspace error.
    The second time it happened was when I deleted a file from the catalog (but not the hard drive) and tried to import the smae file (that was previously in the catalog0 and all of a sudden the colorspace is not good enough for PSE.
    Actually when this happens PSE is not prepared to recognize the colorspace of any picture file (well ok, gif, png, jpg and psd) and a reboot is required.

    Please open one such file in PSE9 Editor? Does it open fine. Do a save as if it does.
    Another solution could be opening this file in IrfanView which is freely downloadable. Did you happen to edit these files in between? Sometimes, file headers get corrupt due to edits and hence Organizer or Editor refuses to open them. From my observation on this forum, opening the file in IrfanView once and doing a save operation there fixes the problem most of the times.
    Thanks

  • Premiere Element 13 The progress bar on the lower right for Indexing has frozen and when asking to open a video file in the organizer, Premiere does not open.

    The above says it all.

    I can't really answer you first question. What has happened is: when I moved an mpg file from my assets to the movie (I have added already a mpg file in the first part of the movie) a message box appears telling me the file is being "indexed" and then this Indexing progress appears in lower right of screen and it processes up to 99% and then freezes. The file appears in the time line, but the frame appears that says "media pending" and then nothing happens. I can go into the Widows media player and the mpg file plays okay, with audio. That is best I can tell you.
    Though I did not say this earlier, when I try to open this mpg file from the Organizer, Premiere does not open.
    My operating system is Windows 7 on a Dell computer with lots of ram and plenty of space on my hard drive.
    Properties of movie file
    These properties are the same as a file I already inserted in the timeline.
    I look forward to your help and thanks..

  • PSE 8.0 Will Not Open (Including Editor and Organizer)

    I have been using PSE 8.0 for three or four years now, and I have never experienced any problems with it. Today, after installed a Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet, my PSE 8.0 would not open-- nor would Editor and Organizer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, renaming certain files (as read in other answers), creating shortcuts to bypass the Welcome Screen (which also will not appear), among other solutions that I read about for similar problems. Whenever I attempt to open Organizer, a crash report appears, stating that the program has quit unexpectedly--that's all it says. If I try to open PSE 8 or Editor, the circle next to my cursor appears for a moment, but soon it disappears without a single pop-up or explanation as to why the program won't open. Since I cannot access the Welcome Screen, I cannot locate the Preference file to change the name/delete it.  If it matters, I use Windows 7.
    Any and all help is appreciated. I'm going a bit insane without my lovely Photoshop to doodle in. ;n;
    Thank you,
    ~ Mongoose

    EDIT: I found the Preferences within the PSE folder, and I renamed it; afterwards, I tried to open PSE again. It reset the Preferences, yet it is still telling me that PSE has unexpectedly quit. /EDIT
    I went into the PSE folder and attempted the "three finger salute" while clicking on Organizer, but all it brought up were the Organizer Properties.
    Also, within the past hour, PSE has been randomly popping multiple times up to inform me that it unexpectedly quit, yet I have not tried to open it recently. I am not sure if that is important or not.

  • PSE 5 clicking icon does not open program

    I had to reinstall PSE 5 on my computer [Dell Dimension E310 Windows XP]. Adobe gave me a url to download the program as my original CD did not work [nothing happened when I put the CD into my computer]I downloaded the program but when I double click the icon for PSE 5 I get what is in the program [such as images, popup, help etc.] The program itself does not open. Can you help?
    Thanks

    PSE 5 Reinstallation
    I had to reinstall PSE 5 on my computer. It is no longer supported by adobe. They gave me a file to download the program, however when I tried to open the program after the installation I got a dialog box which in the blue bar at the top which says Photoshopelements_5.0_en_us. Inside the box there is a big list of files with icons in front of them. For examle cc_01_popup or pse_get_gp etc.
    If you went into "my computer" and opened program files and clicked on a program the dialog box that opened would have the same appearance.

  • Elements Organizer 13.  The program primary window does not open.

    Good afternoon. I installed Elements Organizer. The first some times it has opened correctly and I managed to transfer all photos. But now the program primary window does not open. In dock the active icon appears, in the left top corner there is a name of the program and having clicked with its right mouse button it is possible to open options. What to do in such situation? Photoshop Elements 13 works correctly, but it is very inconvenient to search for photos.

    I managed to locate the problem
    I have an Elgato EyeTV 610. It is an old DVB-C TV Tuner hooked up on Firewire.
    When I remove the EyeTV 610 from the Firewireport it works fine.
    As mentioned in my first posting I was able to have the import window pop up by attaching my camera.
    The workaround also works when pluggin in my iPhone (Import window pops up automatically)

  • Photoshop Elements 5.0 Organizer suddenly does not open

    I've been using Photoshop Elements 5.0 for over a decade without any problems.  Suddenly, the Organizer will not open.  I can open the Editor but not the Organizer.  What the ---- ????

    Thanks for replying with a potential solution.  When the Welcome Screen comes up, I tried holding down the shift key as I hit the Organizer icon.  That doesn't seem to do anything.  The program starts to load - I see the status comments showing the various steps.  But then nothing happens - nothing opens.  Do you know any other way that I can get to the catalog manager??
    Also - if I reinstall the software or upgrade to the latest version of Elements (in order to fix this problem) will I be able to retain all the tags that I've attached to my photos?  I have thousands of pictures categorized and tagged and it would take me years to try to find and retag all of the pictures.
    Any insight you can provide is much appreciated.
