PSE 8 ... Welcome screen Edit button not working

I had this installed on another computer prior to it being stolen, got a new laptop and installed on it.  I am running windows 7.  When at the welcome screen i click on Edit and the little bar changes and acts like it is going to start but then does nothing, it just takes me back to the welcome screen.  I did find one thread on here and tried those recommendations by holding down the ctrl, alt, and shift while clicking edit and then choosing yes .. but that didnt help. 
any thoughts or ideas on what I could try ... hate having spent money on something I only used a handful of times
Thanks!

Have you tried installing the product again to see if it corrects itself?  The thing is PSE8 is very old to run on Windows 8.  The alternative solution could be to start in Windows XP mode.  This is normally done by reading this official Microsoft article:
<http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7>
Good luck.

  • Edit button not working in advanced mode

    When I choose a page layout that is pre- made in the options, I can then switch to the advanced mode, but can't get my edit button to work so I can edit the frames or pictures.  Any ideas why?

    Hi sewloco,
    I order to edit the picture/image when in Create mode, you can directly use the toolbar present on the left side in PSE10. You don't need to switch to Edit mode.
    You can also add a new frame/background/graphic from the Artwork Panel. You have a complete set of Effects and layouts available as well. If you want to add text, use the Text tool (press 'T').

  • Edit button not working on ipad

    I just downloaded the adobe reader app and the edit button doesn't give me options to organize, etc. Any suggestions?

    How it works for me:
    Select the Documents list, then click Edit, and there will be five organizing tools (add folder, duplicate, etc.)
    If that doesn't work, try force-quitting your application. Click the Home button to return to the Home screen. Double-click the Home button to go the row of recent apps at the bottom of the screen. Click and hold down the Adobe Reader icon and the red "delete" icon appears. Click the delete icon and Reader is removed from the list. Return to the Home button and relaunch Reader.

  • Edit button not working on a publishing site on sub-level pages only (SP 2010)

    When I create a top level page, the Edit button/edit page works fine with checkout and checkin.  However, once I create a sub-level page - that is I create a second page within the first page then the edit button does not work and there is a message
    displayed on the ribbon in yellow background: 
    Status:
    Published and visible to all readers 
    I have read all responses to similar posts and tried them but problem is not resolved. 
    I don't have workflow turned on, I don't have content approval, yet, issue is still there. 
    Please help. 

    Hi Wynnit,
    Pinning will not work in most devices - desktop only. To do the same in your device layouts you need to use the scroll motion tools.
    To add code to the <head> tags in Muse you go to your page properties and under the meta tab you will see a section you can paste your code.
    When  you do push live with Business Catalyst you will be given prompts as to how to go about it.

  • Edit Button Not Working in PDF Portfolio

    The Edit function is greyed out whenever I try to create a PDF portfolio directly from an Outlook mail folder. We are using Adobe Pro X.  Any suggestions on why this is and how to fix?  I've been able to create other portfolios and use the Edit button, but not when it is created directly from Outlook.
    Thanks!

  • Touch screen shuffle button not working

    The touch screen button to shuffle (two crossed arrows) doesn't appear to do anything when active. I can shake to shuffle every song, but if I attempt to listen to a specific album and press the shuffle icon from the "now playing" sceen it has no effect and the tracks continue in numerical order. Am I misunderstanding the function of this icon? Should the tracks not play in a random order when this icon is lit up in a blue colour?

  • Iphone 4 home button not working, called never fixed, then cracked screen before bringing it back again, will they blame the cracked screen if i bring it back?

    I bought an iPhone 4 less than a year ago, then one day the home button randomly stopped working, I bought the warranty so I decided to call in and see what was wrong with it. The girl said that restoring the phone would correct the problem which it did. But it is only a temporary fix, it happens more often now. So I was meaning to call in soon, but the other day my phone fell out of my pocket IN CASE from a foot height and cracked the screen. I nearly threw up. All the years I have had a phone I have never cracked or broken one, strongest screen my ***. Anyway, if I contact them again now will they fix the home button problem? or will they say that the cracked screen is obviously the cause of the home button not working? which it is not!! I don't care about the screen being cracked its not on the actual screen just on the side so its irrelevant to me. Plus I heard it is outrageosly pricey to replace.

    Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.
    Regards.

  • I had to erase my hard drive and then reinstall everything back from my passport external hard drive. Now my iPhoto edit is not working. I get a blank screen when I want to edit. The photos show up in the library but I cannot edit them. Help?

    I had to erase my hard drive and then reinstall everything back from my passport external hard drive. Now my iPhoto edit is not working. I get a blank screen when I want to edit. The photos show up in the library but I cannot edit them. Help?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    *1. Permissions in the Library* : Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    *2. Minor Database corruption*: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    *3. A Damaged Photo*: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    *4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    *5. A corrupted preference file*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Music buttons not working in lock screen on my iPhone 4 after iOS7 update.

    After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7, the music buttons like PLAY, REWIND and FORWARD are not working in the locked screen as well as on swipe up menu. Any resolution please?

    hi there
    i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone.  so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help.

  • I have an iphone 3gs in which sleep/wake button not working. i have got stuckn  in an apple logo in my phone screen. is there any software or any solution to turn on or restore my phone??

    i have an iphone 3gs in which sleep/wake button not working. i have got stuckn  in an apple logo in my phone screen. is there any software or any solution to turn on or restore my phone?? Please help...and thaks in advance

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore from Backup..  Restore as New...
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

    thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
    maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

  • Buttons not working, all of a sudden?

    Nothing has changed, no editing was done, and all of a sudden, buttons not working.  I trued exporting from Flash again, with the same pblish settings.  Bit Action Script seems to give me a message now saying it wont export as a button.  Tried AS 2.0 and 3.0, but i made original files in 3.0
    thoughts???
    thank you!

    Either convert that symbol to a button symbol so that you can use the code you showed, or assign it an instance name and place the following code in the timeline...
    yourMCName.onRelease = function(){
         getURL("page2.html","_self","GET");

  • Why does my edit button not show in Address Book?

    I have installed Lion on my laptop; however, I am not able to edit any Address Book entries. After doing some research, I have learned that I am missing the "Edit Button" that is supposed to appear on a contact that will enable editing.  My Edit button does not appear - I have only "Add Contact" and "Share" buttons.  Why does my edit button not appear?
    I have not noticed any other issues with Lion.
    Thanks!

    Try this:
    Select "Go" from the finder whilst holding down the Alt key and "Library will drop down in the list.
    Library/preferences/ and delete this :  com.apple.AddressBook.plist
    re-start your comp and it should work.
    This . plist will re-create itself when re resart all nice and clean and fresh.
    Should work, it does for most things.
