PSE Elements 12 not compatible

Downloaded and installed PS Elements 12 with no problems.  When I click desktop icon and authorize access nothing happens.  When I troubleshoot, computer says PSE 12 is not compatible and wants me to run it in Windows XP SP2.  I am running Windows 7, 64 bit, 1.2 TD hard drive and 16 GB ram.  Help?

PSE12 runs fine in Windows 7 64-bit. I'm a little confused though by:
'Installed PSE12 with no problems' - why do you say this if you cannot start it?
'Authorize access' -  please explain what that means. Perhaps you could post a screenshot (upload the screenshot using the camera icon).
Does the Windows user account you are running it from have Administrator privileges?
Cheers,
Neale

  • PSE 11 not compatible with Mac Mountain Lion?

    Before I upgraded to Mountain Lion and bought PSE 11, I checked to make sure they were compatible.  Sure enough, on the Photoshop package it says it runs on" Mac OS v. 10.6 through v. 10.8".  At the beginning of my "installation" I got a message saying I couldn't use the PSE 11 Install application "because Power PC applications are no longer supported."  When I researched this problem online I found that all the geeks know that you can't install PSE 11 on a Mac running Mountain Lion because Mac no longer has Rosetta, a dynamic binary translator for Mac OSX that allowed Power PC applications to run. 
    Since Rosetta hasn't been on new Macs since Snow Leopard (2008), wouldn't you think Adobe would invent an Install.app that wasn't Power PC?  Or do they hate Apple? (I've heard they do.)

    Dianaapp this could also be an indication that your installation media has become damaged.  Can you please try copying the install files to your desktop and see if you receive a disk error?
    If you do or as an alternative you can download and install Photoshop Elements 11 from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us.
    I have installed Photoshop Elements 11 on two Macs running 10.8 and my own Mom just upgraded to 10.8 and was able to install Photoshop Elements 11 successfully as well.

  • I have a new MacBook Air with Yosemite (no CD/DVD capacity). I want to install Photoshop Elements 6. Can I do this with the serial number? If pse 6 is not compatible, can I upgrade to pse 7. I do not need pse 12 or 13.

    I cannot answer regarding compatibility, but there is no download available for PSE6 if you would need one for this.  You might be able to copy the installation files from a disk to some other removable media that the machine accepts.  Upgrading to PSE7 would not be possible mainly because Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.

  • ACR 5.7 not compatible with PSE 6 or 7

    Though the recently released ACR 5.7 works with PSE 8, it is not compatible with PSE 6 or 7.  A number of people (including me) have observed that if you try to open a raw file in 6 or 7 you get:
    Unable to use the Camera Raw plug-in. It is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements.
    The accompanying documentation is an inconsistent mess about which versions are supported, variously implying that it works with 6 or later, 7 or later, or just 8:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4685
    This new version of the Camera Raw plug-in replaces the original Camera Raw plug-in that was installed with Adobe® Creative Suite® 4, Adobe Photoshop® CS4, Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere® Elements 8 software.
    The Camera Raw 5.7 plug-in is not compatible with versions of Photoshop earlier than Photoshop CS4, versions of Photoshop Elements earlier than Photoshop Elements 6.0, or versions of Premiere Elements earlier than 4.0.
    The latest version of the Camera Raw plug-in available for Photoshop Elements 6.0 (Windows) is Camera Raw 5.5.
    This new version of the Camera Raw plug-in replaces the original Camera Raw plug-in that was installed with Adobe Creative Suite 4, Photoshop CS4, Photoshop Elements 7.0 or 8 and Premiere Elements 7.0 or 8.

    I agree with John,  there is certainly a mess and confusion
    over the use of ACR 5.7 with PSE 7.  I have tried to upgrade and got various error messages including the version incompatibility one. I did try both the 32 and 64 bit versions since I am running Windows 7 64 bit.  However I have now reached a slightly different opinion since I am still able to open Raw files from my Canon G10 (which previously worked with 5.6) but cannot open my EOS 550D Raw files which suggests a specific code problem rather than a version incompatibility.  Any comments or help Adobe?

    Did you buy PSE in the mac app store? If not, just go to Help>Updates in the editor and update camera raw and you should be able to open the raw files in PSE 12 directly without the DNG converter.

  • Elements 12 is not compatible with newer high definition, high resolution screens.

    After many, many hours of troubleshooting on my own, asking questions and time on the chat, Adobe finally told me that Elements 12 is not compatible with my screen. No apology, no offer of refund, no indication when a fix might be available. 

    Looks like it exceeds PSE 12 System Requirements.

    After moving an entire client folder from an external hard drive to an internal one, the client's video, created in adobe premiere elements 10, will no longer open in adobe premiere elements 10. It appears to be loading the project, and instead of completing, the following error message is displayed: "The project is not compatible with current version of Premiere Elements."
    The same thing occurs when attempting to open the archive files.
    New projects, and unmoved projects behave properly.

    Archiving Aspects of this.....
    First let clear the matter of the "archiving" as a life saver.... We do not appear to be on the same wave length.
    a. I am talking about File Menu/Project Archiver with its Archive project and Copy project options. This feature is a safety net to save you when you
    inadvertently disconnect source media from the project file. With the Archive option (Trimmed Folder result), you get saved to the computer hard drive (safe keeping) a copy of the project file plus copies of the media that were taken to the Timeline. With the Copy option (Copied Folder result), you get copy of the project files plus copies of much more.
    b. Instead, you appear to be talking about "archiving" in the context of AutoSaves. AutoSaves are saved snapshots of the project at various phases of the edit. They suffer from the same shortcomings of the original project that has been disconnected from its source media.
    When you import media into a project, all you get are copies of the originals in the project. But, those copies need to trace back to originals at the locations where they were when first imported into the project. Moving, renaming, deleting files/folders that went into the project after the project save close leads to some very time consuming messy situations.
    What to do....
    If you can, put everything back the way it was. If not.....
    Let me emphasis some factors..
    You wrote

It appears to be loading the project, and instead of completing, the following error message is displayed: "The project is not compatible with current version of Premiere Elements."
    Here you mention specifically "client's video". Later you detail with .mod files converted to .avi. What kind of .avi? If you have converted to AVCHD.avi or H.264.avi, they have been found not to be compatible with Premiere Elements. You should not be able to import them into any new or old project.
    From what you described, I am envisioning
    "Video" Folder
    which contains 2 folders named
    "Timestamped Folder" with .avi files
    and
    "DVD" Folder with the project file (project.prel)
    The project file has many files generated automatically in the course of it workflow. Where do you have them going?
    (See Premiere Elements  10 Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Discs). If you have the Scratch Discs directed
    "Same As Project", then we would expect all those files to be going to the DVD Folder in the above scenario.
    If we could open the project and get greeted with some "Where is the file.....?" messages, that might give us some hope.
    But that is not the case.
    Consequently from what you have said, I am suggesting that the path of least resistance is try to recreate the "before".
    Please review and consider.
