PSE12

I keep getting: "...encountered an error while installing Shared Technologies." When I press, "OK", the program then uninstalls and a "Troubleshoot" button comes up. I've tried all the suggestions there and I still can't get the program to install Shared Technologies.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks

PSE12 Organizer - can you copy photo from one folder to another and import copy into Organizer and still have original in other folder

I have been using folders to organize all my pictures and I will copy photos from folder to folder, often having them in 2 or 3 folders based on use. I tried to copy a photo in Organizer PSE12 from one folder to another and you can only move it, that means I can only have one copy of the photo. That is fine if I am using tags and want to search for it, but I want to have mult copies in mult folders. Organizer will recognize that it is there but it won't import it into the new folder. Until I move it, it stays in the original folder. I can drag it out of Organizer and drop (copy) it into a new folder fine, but it won't show in organizer in the new folder. Is there any way to copy and have multiple copies show up in multiple folders?

Hi,
The organizer works on the principle of not having multiple copies of the same photo.
If you have multiple copies spread in different folders, then making changes to one doesn't affect the others. The use of tags and albums are there to give different views of your photos.
You can't have multiple copies with exactly the same name even if they are in different folders. You could select a photo and duplicate it (File -> Duplicate) and then move the copy into a different folder but the name will be different.
If you want different folders for a specific reason, it is possible to use albums to collect the group of photos and then export them to a new folder outside of the organizer. You can also rename on export which is useful if you want to arrange the photos in a specific order.
Hope that helps a bit.

How to open more than 1 file at a time in PSE12?

How do you set PSE12 to open more than 1 file (jpg) at a time? I've seen this question come up many times but no one seems to get the problem resolved. I've tried all the suggestions. Any assistance appreciated.
I had this program installed and working as I wanted about 3 months ago. I then uninstalled and reinstalled a few days ago. Now it won't open more than 1 file at a time.

Hi,
My theory is that Windows get confused when it is opening the program file and the following intsructions should create a unique copy. I have produced the instructions in detail because I am never sure how much people are use to - forgive me you know much of it.
Open Windows or Folder Explorer
Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12
Look for PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
Right click on the file and select Copy
Right click on a blank space and select Paste - you should get a prompt asking if you want to continue - you do - this should produce a copy of the file
Rename PhotoshopElementsEditor - Copy.exe to PSE 12 ED - you should get a prompt asking if you want to continue - you do
Close the Explorer
In the Windows Control Panel, select Default Programs
In Default Programs, Select Associate a file type … - it will take a while to display the list
Scroll down to the type you want to select - say .jpg and select it
Click on the Change program button
Click on the Browse button
Search for the PSE 12 ED file renamed in 6 above, select it and then click on the Open button
Click on OK and close the Default Programs
Now try your tests. I can get multiple files to open as well as retain Expert mode.
Good luck
Brian

Working with RAW files in PSE9: Doable or better to use PSE12?

I have PSE 9 and will soon get a camera with RAW capability. I notice that Adobe no longer supports PSE 9. Am I in for trouble if I don't upgrade to PSE 12 since I don't know how to work with RAW files? It sounds as if I will need something to convert RAW files? Where do I get it? Is it a big deal for a beginner with no software skills?

You can download a free DNG Converter from Adobe and then convert your RAWs to DNGs which can be used in PSE9.
You don't need PSE12, but if you want to purchase PSE 12, you get the most current features in the Raw processor (which in my opinion is a huge improvement over what is available in PSE9), and you don't need the extra step of converting to DNG.

Reinstalling PSE12 after clean install of windows 8.1

I already purchased PSE12 from this site and installed it on this PC, but I just found out that I need to reinstall windows 8.1 (to switch from 32 bit to 64 bit). Will I be able to use the same license on the computer after I reinstall, or will I need to buy a new copy of PSE?

Use Help> Sign Out before reinstalling Windows. This will deactivate the software. Be sure you're connected to the Internet when you do this.

Why does my new PSE12 crash after about 1 minute?

I used PSE8 for several years successfully, on a desktop running WinXP. Always reliable, if a little slow backing up etc with my huge (75K images) catalog.
My brand new desktop now runs Win7, 64 bit. It is a high-spec machine. I bought PSE12 and converted my old PSE8 catalog. For a while, PSE12 worked OK, even though it took a couple of days to generate all the thumbnails for my large catalog.
Suddenly, it started crashing after around 1 minute - even if I do nothing. I uninstalled the old PSE8 - still the same problem. I uninstalled / reinstalled PSE12 - still the same.
Feeling somewhat desperate as I dare not backup my catalog, or even add new images, as the software will inevitably crash part-way through. And am going on holiday soon, with camera!
Any ideas?

Hi,
If it was working but now fails, it could be a problem with your catalog.
I would suggest you try repairing and optimizing it
Load the organizer
From the File menu, select Manage Catalogs - that should open the Catalog Manager.
Select you current catalog and click on the Repair button
When that has finished, click on the Optimize button
When that is done, click on the Cancel button to close the Catalog Manager.
If it crashes before you can get into the Catalog Manager, start the organizer while holding down the shift key - that should go straight into the Catalog Manger - resume at step 3 above.
Good luck

I cannot upload any pictures to Flickr for the past three days, I just get the upload screen which when I click on upload does nothing I'm using PSE12, I have had no problems in the past , I still have had no response to this post and it has been several weeks since initially posted, is there anyone awake at Adobe, can someone give me advice or is there total lack of interest once the product has been purchased I have been a customer of PSE for many year since PSE6 now on 12 but lack of response may cause me to rethink

Error "could not complete your request because of a program error" when editor is launched after PSE12 update.

Installed PSE12 in July, Installed and operated without issue. Received a message on the iMac 21.5 running OS X 10.9.4 about an update for PSE 12 being available. I downloaded and installed the update. Now when the Editor of the app is launched, I get a message that says "could not complete your request because of a program error". If I click "OK", the editor will usually continue and operate without problem but sometimes it will launch to a full gray screen and with just the border and will not close, can not quit, and prevents the MAC from shutting down. I have the force quit the app to continue to use the MAC. I have tried safe mode and user admin with same error. I can't find any posting specific to this issue. I thought there was a method to reinstall PSE without uninstalling it but I can't find it. Should I just simply uninstall PSE 12 anad start over???

It is a mute point now. PSE12 finally failed to the point it locked up the MAC. I had to restore the MAC OS from backup to a point before the PSE12 update.
The MAC now operates correctly and so does PSE12. I don't think I'll be updating PSE any time soon.

Trouble with PSE12 as External Editor in Aperture 3.3

I previously used Photoshop Elements 6 (PSE6) as my external editor in Aperture 3.3 with no problem. After having installed PSE12 and set it as the external editor in Aperture, something is amiss. When I choose a photo for external editing in PAS12, PSE12 launches but the photo never opens in PSE12. Has anyone else experienced this? Am I missing something? Should I just stick with PSE6? Thanks.....

Have you selected the PSE application or the PSE folder in the settings for the external editor? When you are setting the external editor, make sure you dive into the PS Elements Support folder, where the application is hidden.

PSE12 install: Error 1335, Data1.cab corrupt

PSE12 install: Error 1335, Data1.cab corrupt
Install from online purchase with download, all remedies are relevant to CD-ROM?!
How do I get my money back?

great. for others:
if you follow all 7 steps, you can download a trial via one of the links on this page using a browser that accepts cookies: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a download problem (eg, you see an error page or you are offered an incorrect version), you probably didn't follow all 7 steps. typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem, but your browser must also allow cookies so that (a restrictive browser setting) is another potential source of problems.

Raw files not showing in PSE12

I recently upgraded from a Canon T3 to a Canon 70D. I had been using PSE11 with my T3 without any trouble. But when I got the 70D it would no longer load my raw files. I did some quick research and saw that I needed to purchase PSE12, so I did. However, my files still aren't showing even after doing an update. I'm running on Vista and while my computer is 7 years old it really is working great so I would like to avoid getting a new system just to upload the raw files. I read about DNG but I really don't want the extra step of having to convert my files. I just want to be able to import the raw files and work with them from there. I read somewhere that it's possible to do a manual upgrade to camera raw 8.3, but I can't find any directions. Would love some help. I'm about to pull my hair our. What's so hard about them offering the update through the program I just shelled out $80 for. I shouldn't have to spend hours getting PSE12 to work. Thanks in advance for any help!

Sure, it's not too hard to do the upgrade to camera raw 8.3.
First download and install the 8.3 dng converter to install the required profiles for camera raw 8.3
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.3
Then download the Camera Raw_83_GM_32bit.zip from the following link
(it's under where it says Revert to 8.3 on Windows 32-bit Windows XP and Vista)
(since pse 12 is a 32 bit program on windows, you want the 32 bit camera raw plugin)
Adobe Camera Raw Help | Camera Raw/DNG Converter 8.4 on Mac OS 10.6, Windows XP, and Vista
Extract the contents of the Camera Raw_83_GM_32bit.zip and copy the enclosed Camera Raw.8bi file to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats (64 bit windows vista system)
or
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats (32 bit windows vista system)
It's a good idea to delete the old camera raw plugin before pasting the new one into one of the above places.

How do I activate the Edit menu and Layers in the trial version of PSE12?

After looking at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements/faq.html#trial-information 1., which says it's a fully functional version, I downloaded the trial version of PSE12,.
But when I open a photo, and Select > All, the Edit menu shows the following:
Thinking that maybe Layers has to to active, but the Window menu shows the following:
Like in the Edit menu, everything is greyed out.
How do I make things active so I can actually evaluate this trial version?

Are you in Expert Mode?

Text checkbox obscuring view of text in PSE12

With PSE12 how do I stop the green "tick" / red "reject" checkbox from obscuring my view of the text as I'm trying to type? The problem is that the checkbox retains the same number of pixels on my screen - no matter what amount of zoom is applied to the image I'm editing. This did not happen with my previous version (PSE7) - and it's annoying me so much that I would find it very difficult to recommend the program to anyone else. I expect that there is an easy solution - but I have done a lot of searching and I can't find it. The solution will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you MichelBParis - I appreciate your suggestion and there's no doubt that it does work - but if Adobe's developers had done their job well, then all those steps would have been completely unnecessary. There is no good or useful reason for having the checkbox anchored close to the text box. With PSE7 the checkbox for the text was located on the right hand side of the task bar (which was above the edited image) - so it was impossible for the checkbox to get in the way of any part of the image. The designers of PSE12 should have applied a similar tactic by locating the text checkbox at the bottom, to the right of all the options for adjusting the text - OR they should make the existence of text checkbox optional. Thanks again for your help and advice.

Problems printing with PSE12 and Canon Pro9000 MII

There seems to be a problem with PSE 12 and the print function. Using my Canon Pro9000-Mark II the size is off. Set to 8 x 10 photo paper in either landscape or portrait, PSE will print it to what looks like a 16 by 20 print, even though all setting are for an 8 x 10. Another problem is that even though the 9000 is set as my default printer, PSE always returns to my Epson 1400.
To further complicate this matter, if I use the Automation tool and select Canon Print Studio Pro, the 9000 prints perfectly with PSE12.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?.

Usually posted problems with the Pro9000 are poor colour matching ones, I don't recall a sizing problem before.
Have you checked all the places where size may be set, both in the PSE Print Dialogs (check paper size and print size, and under more options 'custom print size) and in the standard printer driver ?
Out of interest why would you NOT want to use Canon Print Studio Pro plug-in ? I thought this was Canon's recommended printing work flow.

In PSE12, how do I save captions when I export photos to a CD? And how do I keep them in the proper order instead of them becoming all jumbled up?

I have PSE12 and when I export photos to a CD, the captions disappear. How do I keep my captions on the photos? Also, how do I keep the photos in the order I want them instead of them getting all jumbled up?
Thank you for any help you can give.

How do I transfer photos from PSE 12 to PSE 13 and do I uninstall PSE12?

I have downloaded PSE 13, and now need to move the photos in PSE 12 organizer to PSE 13. Do I uninstall PSE 12 after photo transfer?

PSE12 simply mirrors your folders on the hard drive of your computer. The Organizer stores nothing physically; simply making links to your folders.
Try copying outside Elements from the OS to Kindle.
Otherwise you probably need to contact Amazon.
