PSE Organizer fails to open

PSE 9 will not open Organizer but will open Edit, Create and Share.  An error message, "application unexpectedly closed" appears.  At that point it is a "do-loop" of error messages.  I have uninstall and reintalled the software, turn the computer on and off.  But so far nothing is allowing Organizer to open.
Any thoughts on how to get Organizer to open in iMac?

First try holding down the shift key when you start organizer (you are starting it from applications and not the welcome screen, right?), and you should see the catalog manager. Select your catalog and then Repair and Optimize.

  • With PSE 7 Unable to Open Organizer, Editor, Create, Share

    I am new to PSE7. I installed the program in Jun and have only played with it some.  Last night I used the program with no problem.  This morning I opened the program and the Welcome Screen comes up.  I am able to sign into photoshop.com.  However, when I click on Organizer, Editor, Create or Share everything disappears.  Can anyone help me?
    Thank you, Linda

    Thank you for your response.  I tried step 4.  When I clicked on  the link
    I get an error message, "Error "Licensing for this product has stopped 
    working" when you start any Adobe Creative Suite 3 application." I am a true 
    computer novice and I did not know if this applies to PSE7 or if Adobe
    Creative  Suite a different application.  Should I follow the steps that pop up
    from  Adobe Tech Support or should I start with step 1 and try the steps in
    your  link?
    Thank you so much for your help,

  • Elements organizer 11 fails when opened from the welcome banner or from PSE11

    Windows 8 operating system (upgraded from 7)
    PSE & premier installed from disk, purchased from Amazon.
    Organizer has sometimes worked, but the last two times (after re-booting), it has failed.
    Out of space for back up, but I can't fix that without getting into the catalogs.  (I don't want to buy space from Adobe.)

      Try making a direct desktop icon for the Organizer and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
    Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    And find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    Inside the Adobe >> Photoshop Elements Organizer (yellow folder) you are looking for an application file “PhotoshopEementsOrganizer” with six small icons (e.g. representing thumbnails)
    Select it and click OK
    Click next
    Then click finish
    You should now be able to launch directly form the desktop by double clicking on the new icon.

  • PSE Organizer 12 crashes soon after opening

    When I open Organizer directly from the desktopn, it asks if I want to back up my catalog.  I decline.  A few seconds later 'Elements 12 organizer has stopped working'. 
    I recently upgraded my installation from PSE 11 to PSE 12.  I run Windows 8 on an i3 Gen2.  My catalog has ~ 30K photos stretching back 12 years.  The catalog also contains video.  I was having a similar issue with 11.  I created a new catalog, thinking that the catalog file may have become corrupted.  That solved the problem for a couple of weeks, but the issue has now returned.  I want to like this product as it's easy to use, but the constant crashes have to go!
    What can I do to help solve this issue?

  • Pse 12 organizer crashing after opening

    pse 12 organizer crashing after opening,HELP

    Hi deepsea285,
    You can try to Update the video card driver.   
    Many video card manufacturers frequently update their software drivers. If you haven't recently updated the video card driver,
    If still issue Persists,
    1. Re-create the Elements Organizer preferences file.
    Navigate to the Elements Organizer settings folder:
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Adobe\Elements Organizer\[Version]\Organizer\
    Win Vista/7/8: C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\[Version]\Organizer\
    Macintosh OS: //Users/[User Name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Elements Organizer/[Version]/Organizer/
      NOTE: Some of the folders in these paths could be hidden. To reveal them, see:  
    Show hidden files, folders, filename extensions | Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7
    Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion
       2. Rename psa.prf to psa.old. 
       3. Retry launching Elements Organizer

  • ORGANIZER IN PSE 10 WILL NOT OPEN, HAVE TRIED A HUNDRED TIMES, WORKED FINE PREVIOUSLY! HELP ANYONE!

    Organizer in PSE 10 wil not open, have tried a hundred times, worked fine previously, help anyone?

    Thanks for your response DJ. I have Windows Vista and I'am getting NO error messages, crazy right? I just click on the organizer and it acts like its going to do something and then you wait and wait for maybe 30 minutes and it just doesn't move forward. I have been using the PSE programs for many years and have never encountered this problem! I have thousands of pictures on this program and its starting to freak me out that I cant access any of them! If you have any additional ideas please let me know. Thanks Julie

  • Photoshop Elements Organizer won't open on Windows 7

    It was working fine one day, I was adding pictures and actually was ordering prints through
    Shutterfly and came back to computer and organizer wouldn't open.  Any suggestions with
    out reloading software?
    Pam

    Actually I found the problem after searching through the forum list - it was the solution to reset the organizer's online-services state.
    Right, that was the step 7 I referred to.
    Is there a known problem with this feature?  I definitely am leery of ordering prints through the organizer field again.
    Yes, it's been a known problem in the Organizer since at least PSE 6 (2007), with an Adobe tech note describing the problem and the workaround:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405252.html
    Like most bugs in the Organizer, Adobe has explicitly chosen not to fix it.
    The problem appears to occur when an upload to a service is interrupted or fails.  The workaround, deleting those files, seems pretty reliable.

  • How do I make Organizer and Editor open at the same time?

    I'm new to PSE 10 and want to know how to make Organizer and Editor open at the same time. I can get the Organizer up, but have to pick out a photo and click on Fix: Full Photo Edit to get Editor to open. Is that the only way to do it?
    Thanks,
    K

    Create Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor:
    The Editor's executable is:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    The Organizer's executable is:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"

  • In PSE 13, when I open a folder, jpeg files have a preview image, but PSD, DNG and CR2 files don't. Also, no thumbnail below the file list.

    Working in PSE 13, when I open a folder, jpeg files have a preview image, but psd files just have white sheet of paper as preview.  I have to open the file to be able to see it.  Also, there is no thumbnail of the file below the file list.Surely, there's a setting that needs to be changed. I did not have this problem with Elements 12. This is a real bother because I have to use Lightroom to see all the file types. It seems as if Elements is using the standard Windows file loader that can't show previews of file types it doesn't know including .PSD, DNG and CR2. Is that a bug or did I do something wrong? Thanks for any help.

    I am using Windows 7 64 bits. Working in the editor, I never use the organizer. The screen above is not the same at all that I got in Elements 12, it was completely different and showed me a thumbnail below the listing when I single clicked on one of the files. In Elements 12, I also could see  a thumbnail of all the file types, not only the jpegs. It is as if the loader is the regular Windows used anywhere, not the right one for Elements. I hope someone understands my problem.. Thanks.

  • Elements 8 Organizer crashes when opening from Editor

    Hi,
    on my new OS Win7, 64-bit Elements Orgenizer (EO) shuts down with an error message after the following actions:
    Open EO
    Select a foto and open it in Elemtns Foto Editor for editing
    Return to the Organizer before or after any modifications to the foto via the Organizer-Icon in the right corner of the menu bar of the Editor
    After a few milliseconds the Organizer crashes and a big white box appears telling that Organizer was shut down because of an error and asking wether an error report should be sent to Adobe.
    This situation newer showed up on my old Vista (32-bit) system, where I had the same version of Elemnts 8 installed. I already sent several error reports to Adobe - no response yet. Running the program in XP (Service Pack 2) or Vista (Service Pack 2) compatability mode didn't fix the problem. I think Elements 8 has a problem when running on a 64-bit system.
    Are there any suggestions or hints on how to avoid this crash or how to proceed?
    Thank's in advance
    Helmut

  • Why can't I download photos from my harddrive in PSE Organizer 8?

    I've tried 3 different times to download my photos in PSE Organizer 8 from my harddrive.  Each time I tried a smaller group.  I just upgraded from Elements 4 and I was impressed with some of the features with the organizer and decided to try and use it.  I have all my photos organized in folders and sub folders.  According to the help information, I should be able to just tell it to download all my photos, including sub folders and once downloaded, I can click on folders view (can't quite remember exactly what it's called) and I will find all my photos organized the same way.  I have Windows XP.  I do have a large amount of photos.  The first try included all of them for a total of 11,644, but part of these are .pub and .doc files which cannot be download.  The last try was 8,843 photos which, again included files that cannot be downloaded.  I was really hoping to download my pictures in an already organized way.  Is this possible?  Is it that it just can't handle downloading that many at a time, or could it be some other problem?

    What do you see that tells you the photos didn't import into the Organizer? Do you get an error message? Does the Organizer appear to be empty when you finish importing?
    More importantly, this is not the correct process when moving from PSE4 to PSE8. You need to convert your PSE4 catalog. To do this, open PSE8 and select File->Catalog->Convert.
    My advice is to forget importing existing photos into the Organizer, and convert the catalog as described above.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer will not open on Apple 10.6.8.

    I downloaded Photoshop Elements 12 two days ago and opened and ran the program successfully. I've downloaded nothing new to the computer since then, made no updates. but today it will not open at all, giving me a message that Adobe Elements 12 Organizer cannot be opened. The error message reads: "Reason: Incompatible library version: dvacaptioning requires version 7.0.0 or later, but libcurl.4.dylib provides version 6.0.0".
    I've restarted my computer, and I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program, but I am getting the same error message as before. Can anyone help? Thank you.

    Unfortunately, the pse 12 organizer won't work on mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard.
    As far as i know, there is no update or patch from adobe to resolve the issue.
    Probably no fix from adobe is coming, since photoshop elements 13 is already out, and adobe very seldom patches older software that they no longer sell and i don't believe pse 12 was officially supported on mac os x 10.6.8 by adobe when pse 12 came out.

  • Pse 10 wont stay open

    ......if it opens at all. laptop is above min spec for pse 10.
    sometimes it opens fine
    sometimes it gets to the selection screen and when you choose say ORGANISE, it shuts down
    sometimes it just doesnt open at all
    when it does it will only allow you to see a  3X2 view or lower in the organise screen, any more and you just get hour glasses
    this is a real bummer  i have paid £100 for this and premiere which does the same errors that elements does
    i have been  using elements since elements 3
    help

    Bypass the Unwelcome Screen by creating Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor, and restarting your computer.
    The Editor's executable is:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    The Organizer's executable is:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    The Unwelcome Screen leaves a zombie process running which prevents the actual program from launching again.
