PSE8 trial will not load onto my MacBook

I have downloaded the free trial twice now and no luck either time.
I have a MacBook, 2 years old, with OS X 10.6.4 loaded and plenty of available space - so requirements are met.
It takes me about 2 hours to download the Free Trial and eats up 1.24 GB of my 12 GB monthly allowance.
Here's the problem:
When the download is complete a window comes up for me to click and "Install Now".
A dialogue box then asks if I want to open a program downloaded from the internet, to which I reply "OPEN"
A blue working bar appears and words which tell me that it's "connecting....."
Then the entire thing disappears and nothing has happened.
Above is a screenshot of yesterday's unhappy download. 
Below is the download from the day before.
I am to start a course next Monday Aug 2 - As I am in Australia, it will be still Aug 1 in the USA.
One further complication is that I have the program on my iMac and undersand that I can also have it on my laptop using the same serial number as long as I am not using them simultaneously.
What more can I do?

Hi Marcia,
After the download completes, you need to double click on the PhotoshopElements_8_WWEFGJ.dmg file. Afterwards, it should open a finder window, in there browse inside the "Adobe Photoshop Elements 8" folder and then double click on the Setup.app. That will launch the installer in UI mode and you just have to follow the on-screen instructions from there on.
Regarding the usage, you can use PSE with the same serial number on two machine simultaneously at the max, if you install and try to use it on third machine, then you must deactivate it on either of the two previous machine.
So in short, you should be successfully be able to install and run it on your iMac and laptop at the same time.
Regards,
Ankush

    ANy help would be great. The desk top, pop-up shows the loading icon, just spinning around and nothing happens. I have downloaded a 2nd trial, with same results. I don't want to buy CC unless I can get the trial to work.

    I have a handfull of songs in my library that are not showing up bold like the other songs. When I click the icon to download from the cloud nothing happens and they will not load onto my ipod. When I look for them in the purchased area they show up as purchased and downloaded.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    So far as I am aware, books haven't been available for 6 years, so I'm wondering if you mean audiobooks.
    Audiobooks are not currently part of the content that can be re-downloaded.

  • Facebook will not load on my macbook pro

    Facebook will not load on my macbook pro in any browser in any location. HELP! This has been going on for 5 months. I cannot take it anymore!

    See in each Browser which version of Flash it thinks it has...

    The reason I ask that...
    About Safari 5.1.7 and Leopard Security Update 2012-003
    Summary

    Products Affected
    Mac OS X 10.5, Product Security, Safari 5.1 (Mac OS X 10.6), Safari 5.1 (OS X Lion)
    Safari 5.1.7 for OS X Lion, Safari 5.1.7 for OS X Snow Leopard, and Leopard Security Update 2012-003 disable out-of-date versions of Adobe Flash Player.
    Out-of-date versions of Adobe Flash Player do not include the latest security updates and will be disabled to help keep your Mac secure.

The dialog provides the option to go directly to Adobe's website, where you can download and install an updated version of Flash Player.

    If you need to re-enable an out-of-date version of Flash Player, you can do the following:
        1.    Navigate to the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled) folder.
        2.    Drag "Flash Player.plugin" into /Library/Internet Plug-Ins.

  • Suddenly my .mac/.me email will not load on my macbook

    suddenly my .mac/.me email will not load on my macbook.  got err messages requesting my pasword and added password and nothing has loaded. 

    Your signature says you are using 10.5.6 - is this correct. Leopard is not compliant with iCloud's requirements.
    You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
    Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmail.html
    You may also need to change your pasasword if it's not compliant with Apple's requirements - at least 8 characters, of which at least one must be a numeeral and one a capital letter.

    There is a problem with IE10+ in that it is mistakenly seen as being IE1.  To get around this either use a different browser or use compatibility view (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-10)

  • I have recently upgraded my mac and ipad to IOS7 and find that Safari will not load onto my iPad. It just shuts down the app. Any ideas? I have been onto Mac who took me through a very long iPad robot, but the problem is still the same! Help appreciated

    Do you mean that you did a soft-reset ?
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
    If that doesn't fix it then try closing Safari via the iPad's multitaskingbar and see if it works when you re-open it :double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag the Safari app's 'screen' up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    After trying the above you could also do a soft-reset (even if this is what you've already done it might be worth trying after clearing Safari's cache and closing the app via the taskbar) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • AHT will not load on my MacBook Pro

    I've no DVD only Internet for OSX Lion Installing. I'm conect to Internet, push D and turn on, the AHT will not Load(working)
    Can Anybody hep me? I've bought this Comp used.
    THX a Lot

    If this is indeed a Feb 2011 system, you have an interesting issue.
    Those systems should have come with SL instead of Lion.  The seller installed Lion that he/she paid for.
    But according to license agreements for Lion, the unit was supposed to have been restored to Feb 2011 OSX and the disks provided.
    You cannot run Lion that another person bought, and should not have paid their "upgrade expenses" to Lion as it is not yours.
    But, legalities aside ...
    There is advantage to having those gray install disks.  Those disks have hardware-specifc drivers and AHT for your specific unit.
    I would ask the seller, regardless of your success with the other thread.
    If the seller does not have them to give, you can call Apple and give them the serial number and a fee ($16 per disk, I think I saw).
    But this could be quite a mess for you on "legal OSX".

  • Will not load onto my ipod touch

    I bought Angry Birds Space yesterday and it loaded to my iPhone but will not load to my iPod touch.

    Even if you enabled Automatic Downloads now, it wouldn't apply to past purchases. Only if you buy a new app from that point on should it automatically download.
    For Angry Birds Space, you can redownload it from the App Store at no additional charge.

  • I have song in itunes that will not load onto ipod ?

    I have a song in itunes that will not download onto ipod, nothing by song in library indicating there is a problem. Can anyone help me ?

    Does the song have a tick-in-the-box next to the song title? (You may have selected to Sync only ticked songs and videos to your iPod. This option is on the Device/Sumary pane that appears when you connect the iPod to iTunes.)
    Is the song in a format the iPod can play? (Is it the same format as other songs that do Sync to your iPod?)
    Have you looked (on the iPod) under songs as well as artists? (It may show up under songs but not under artists.)
    Try the Search facility on the iPod and see if it shows up that way.

  • Some movie DVD's will not load on my MacBook

    I have several movies that will not load or be read by the DVD drive. I insert the DVD it spins then ejects. Other older DVD's play just fine. I'm quite baffled by this as I can't seem to identify any common denominator other than it occurs more often with newer DVD's.

    If iDVD is crashing at launch try this basic troubleshooting fix :
    1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch IDVD and try again.

  • My Airport extreme software will not load on my Macbook hardisk

    When I try instaling the Airport Utiliy software I get an error msg that says...the vesrion of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported.  Not sure what to do.

    The current version of AirPort Utility will run on Macs that are using the Leopard, Snow Leopard, or Lion operating systems.
    If you are still running on Tiger 10.4.11....as your post indicates.....you could try to download and install an earlier version of AirPort Utility. No guarantees, but worth a try.
    Find it here:
    AirPort Utility 5.4.2 for Mac
