PSE 7 won't go to full edit since today

I have been using PSE 7 for a year plus with no issues.  Today I loaded some new photos, the program reported it was creating thumbnails and ran at 50% processor utilization with PSE reporting "Not responding".
Have removed and reinstalled PSE with no change of symptoms.
Have also noticed if I start PSE with no new photos, so system is stable, I am unable to select a picture and go to full edit, same symptoms as above.
I have recently loaded AVG antivirus V9, which I have also tried removing, again no change to symptoms.
Any ideas?  David

Your symptoms suggest the thumbnail cache may be corrupt. Try recreating it:

If that doesn't help, try changing your default printer, as described in step 5:

(The default printer more frequently causes problems for the Editor than the Organizer.)
If those steps don't help, then unfortunately, it can be quite tedious to diagnose the problem.  I suggest the following steps, which include everything that Adobe recommends along with what's been learned on these forums:

  • I would like to freely add clip art in Full Edit Mode in PSE 5.0

    Hello,
    I am new to Photoshop Elements. I have PSE 5.0 on a windows XP platform with service pack 3 installed. I want to be able to create flyers with PSE and would like to freely be able to add various types of clip art into my canvas. I know you can do this when you're creating slides, but I want to be able to do this in PSE full edit mode, not by creating a slide show via the organizer.
    There are tons of clip art online and they have various file types too. I am also wondering if I can use any of the file types as well. The ones that PSE has for the slide shows are .png. But online I have seen .wmf, .mpf, .jpg as well. How can I incorporate all this clip art for use in creating flyers and/or logos by just starting with a blank 8.5 x 11 canvas in full edit mode?
    Any expert help here would be greatly appreciated. I was able to do this using Word, but Word of course lacks the graphic quality and optionality of PSE greatly.
    Sincerely,
    Lee

    Thanks for your reply here Bob. I have read what you mentioned above and am not quite sure how to do it that way. What I have been doing so far is to find a clip art item somewhere, copy it to the clipboard, then bring it into PSE with the File-New-from clipboard command.
    This will bring it into it's own space and Layer as a separate file on it's own. Then I select it, copy the selection to the clipboard once again, move over to my blank canvas which only has one background layer now, and paste it onto this canvas.
    This seems to be working, but I loose the Vector graphic aspect of the clip art image because it converts it to a raster type of image now. So I have to be very careful in resizing it to not loose resolution and such.
    I noticed when I go to create a slide show in PSE, I have access to the graphics palette where you can double click a piece of clip art and it goes right onto your slide and stays as a vector image. I can get to these images while in full-edit mode, but I have to use the file-open command and navigate to the right folder and then open one up into full-edit mode as it's own layer. But then once again, I loose the vector aspect and I have to go through the process of selecting it, copying it to the clipboard and then pasting onto my blank canvas.
    I know that MS Word is no match for this product, but at least there I could easily add clip art to any flyer I am making without loosing the vector aspect. But I know that the quality is so much better here in PSE and that I just need to learn how to utilize more of its functionality and power. Hence why I am writing this post I suppose.
    Isn't there an easier way to get clip art into your blank canvas in full edit mode without having to go through all this and/or without having to create a slide show to get access to this clip art pallete? And having to loose the vector aspect of the clip art is not so wonderful either. Did I buy the wrong Adobe application - Ha!
    Should I be using Illustrator since I want to create flyers using clip art, type and effects?
    My apologies for this long post, but I would really like to be able to utilize, if at all possible, PSE 5.0's full power to create great quality flyers using all these things.
    Thanks again,
    Lee

    Music on my iPhone has become very difficult to edit since upgrading to 5.0.1.  If I simply want to delete some songs, it insists on a complete sync cycle after EACH one I delete.  This is so annoying… (I have over 400 Christmas songs I won't need until next year) I have also noticed it randomly keeps updating album artwork…adding more time to each sync.  Is there some way I can turn off the syncing until I have picked and deleted all the songs I want?

    The cause was probably a USB glitch during a sync or when copying. The music resides on the phone in separate files. A master file contains a database with an index to the music, an entry for each track and a "pointer" to the file containing the track. Somehow the index got corrupted with duplicate entries. It's likely that the music itself wasn't duplicated, but some tracks had more than one entry in the database. I've seen this happen when syncing (rather than manually managing) also. In my case deleting the track from the Music tab in iTunes, syncing, then adding it back fixed it.
    A related problem I've seen is an album may be split, with some tracks in each of 2 or more album entries in the listing. Fixed the same way.

  • PSE 10 will print from the organizer and in sharing mode, but not from full edit

    I'm using pse10 on a computer with an i7 processor with 12GB of ram and windows 7 with a color laser printer.  The print function works fine while in organizer and sharing mode, but not from full edit.   When I try to print from full edit, I get an  error message with a red "X" on it that says:  "Before you can perform printer related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer."  I can't figure it out.  The printer is in "ready" state, and works fine in the organizer mode, and in share.  Any thoughts on what I'm missing? Thanks for any help in advance.

    This occurs frequently with HP printers, though  others are implicted as well from time to time
    In Control panel>Devices and printers, right click your active printer, go to Printer Properties, and rename the printer to something short, e.g. my printer

  • I bought a new external hard drive for backups, but time machine won't do a full back up.  I think it is remembering backing up onto previous external hard drives, which I don't own anymore.  How do I do a new full backup?

    I bought a new external hard drive for backups, but time machine won't do a full back up. 
    I think it is remembering backing up onto previous external hard drives, which I don't own anymore.  How do I do a new full backup?
    When I bought the new (used) iMac, I also bought an external hard drive for backups.  It worked fine, but my husband stole it.
    Then I bought a new external hard drive (Seagate) and it worked fine for three weeks, then died.
    So I just got a new external hard drive, which was put together from an internal hard drive and a hard drive enclosure. 
    Time machine did the first backup today, and it should have taken 9 hours like it did on the previous first time full back up.  Instead, it took 30 minutes.  That can't be right.  I want to start over and do a full backup to make sure everything gets onto my new external hard drive, but I can't figure out how to do that.  Please help.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    tmutil compare -E
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command will take at least a few minutes to run. Eventually some lines of output will appear below what you entered.
    Each line that begins with a plus sign (“+”) represents a file that has been added to the source volume since the last snapshot was taken. These files have not been backed up yet.
    Each line that begins with an exclamation point (“!”) represents a file that has changed on the source volume. These files have been backed up, but not in their present state.
    Each line that begins with a minus sign (“-“) represents a file that has been removed from the source volume.
    At the end of the output, you’ll get some lines like the following:
    Added:
    Removed:
    Changed:
    These lines show the total amount of data added, removed, or changed on the source(s) since the last snapshot.

  • PSE9 - Problem printing from full edit

    When I try to print from the full edit page, I click on File, then Print and the Print page pops up. I select the correct printer, hit Print and the Fax menu pops up. I prefer to print from full edit instead of from the organizer. I have a CanoScan 9000f installed, but I don't scan directly to PSE, I only scan to my computer and open the pictures from PSE. Could this be the problem or is there another solution? I cannot print from full edit with any picture, scanned or not.

    Please read related post for print issue http://forums.adobe.com/message/3275350. Go through my repies and thread and check if that resolution steps resolves your issue.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Elements 9 Full edits do not work

    While editing photos in Elements 9 all of a sudden the Full Edit tab and also the Create tabs do not work, what went wrong and how do I get them to work?

    OK, open the Organizer, then click the icon for the Unwelcome Screen:
    Hold down your Ctrl+Alt+Shift keys while clicking on the "Edit" button:
    Keep the keys held down until the "loading" animation stops.  Then close all the PSE windows and you'll see the prompt for deletion window.

    I bought Adobe Elements 12; I cannot use panorama photomerge, I have followed the directions to go to Full Edit  mode in edit workspace> choose File> New> Photomerge. However the Photomerge does not work, it does not respond.
    The only thing I can come up with is that I found a blog that said that in the Trial version Photomerge does not work, however I do Not have the Trial version, I did at one time but I purchase Adobe Elements. Thank you.

    The blog was incorrect. Photomerge should work in the trial, too.
    When things get weird in PSE the first thing to do is to delete the prefs. Go to the editor preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor:

  • Sneak Preview Full Edition Availability & System Requirements

    Can anyone tell us authoratatively when the Full Edition (Java + ABAP) of the NW04 Sneak Preview will be available? And equally importantly, for planning purposes, what the minimum and recommended system requirements will be?

    In the download area you can get the Full Netweaver (ABAP + Java) for Linux. This has been available for a little while.
    Now, what you are asking is the same I've been waiting for: the Full version for Windows.
    I had expectations that it would be far down the road, but since the version ABAP was released today, I feel like we may get it soon.
    I suggest you keep watching the forums and visiting SDN regularly (like me). An estimate release date will come out sometime soon.

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

  • My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.

    My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.  When I "Preview In Browser" through Edge it plays (I have created a shape and used the "play video full screen" snippet)  in full screen mode just fine.  When I "Preview Site In Browser" through Muse and click on the shape to PLAY VIDEO FULL SCREEN, it does nothing.  I am new to both programs and can't figure out why it will work out of the preview window in Edge and won't work when I publish to Muse.  Does anybody have an answer or a work-around for me?
