Reader 9.3.0 and Photoshop Elements 2.0

I have a new computer with Windows 7, 64 bit, etc.  I loaded Adobe Reader 9.3.0.  I also have Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0.  Whenever I want to open a PDF file, Photoshop tries to open it, which doesn't work.  What did I do wrong and how do I get Reader to open these PDF files instead of Photoshop?  Thanks.

Sorry that I'm not up to date on Win 7 but you need to reassociate Reader to open PDF's.
Save a PDF to your desktop, click once to highlight it then right click and go to Open With>Choose Program. Select REader then check the box that says "A;ways use the selected program to open this type of file".
Win 7 may be slightly different or use some different terminology but that should get you started.

  • New Mac: Why are CC and Photoshop Elements not working when Lightroom and Reader are fine

    Last week I changed computers (swapping an old Mac for a 13-in MacBook Pro Retina running OSX Yosemite 10.10.3. I copied all my data over to the new machine using Migration Assistant.
    All programs work fine (including my copy of Lightroom 3 and Reader XI). But my CC and Photoshop Elements 10 do not. I have tried uninstalling both, but whenever I try to reinstall PE10 from its disk or download it just stops almost at the end. I then I get an "initiation failed" message, along with a request to download the now defunct "Support Advisor" app!
    I cannot download Adobe Application Manager, or the CC desktop app either - for the former I get an "initiation failed" message, along with the "download Support Advisor" app" message again! For the latter I get a message saying "Adobe Creative Cloud Is Needed to Resolve this problem - however it is missing or damaged." Then I get a message and a link to download Creative Cloud. Then when I've downloaded it and I click on the installer... it runs for a bit and then I get the message again: "Adobe Creative Cloud Is Needed to Resolve this problem - however it is missing or damaged." And I get a prompt and link to download the CC app. Guess what happens next? And so it goes on. And on and on, in a tedious circle.
    This is incredibly annoying and frustrating as I have work to do! Anyone have any ideas what's happening?
    Cheers

    do not use migration to install adobe programs.
    you should uninstall and clean whatever you've done, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    then dl the cc desktop app to your new computer and use it to install your adobe cc programs, Download Adobe Creative Cloud apps | Free Adobe CC trial

    Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

  • How to re-read metadata from file in Photoshop Elements 11 Organizer?

    I am currently testing Lightroom 4 and Photoshop Elements 11 as a replacement for my old softwarestack due to a new DSLR.
    In Lightroom I can read and write metadata directly from/to file. In Photoshop Elements Organizer I have found an option to write tags to files, but none to re-read the metadata after the files has been imported to the catalog.
    I would like to use Lightroom as primary organizer for import/tagging/basic corrections. But Lightroom does not have some nifty things like face/person recognition and SmartTags, so I need the Photoshop Elements Organizer to do that. The target workflow would be:
    DSLR -> Import to -> Lightroom -> tagging -> basic corrections -> write tags to file in Lightroom -> import to PSE organizer -> person recognition -> smart tags -> image edits -> write tags to files in PSE organizer ==> tags can now be re-read in Lightroom, so I get the PSE organizer changes to Lightroom.
    And that is the problem: If changes were made after this workflow in Lightroom, PSE Organizer does not know that until I can re-read the metadata from the files. If I press "write tags to file" in PSE organizer all newer Lightroom tags will be overwritten with the old tags from PSE organizer.
    Does anyone knows a solution for this problem? Or should I file a feature request for both programs?

      You can now do a lot more in the metadata panel in PSE 11. If you select a thumbnail in Organizer and click the three small dots it will bring up a dialog for the metadata fields. To add information to many photos all at once, select all the thumbnails, click the information tab and then click the button marked Add IPTC information. You can then choose to append new information to all of the selected items or to overwrite.

  • Acrobat 8 Standard and Photoshop Elements

    I need to download my Acrobat 8 Standard and Photoshop Elements on my new computer. Adobe downloads will not let me do this and tech support says they cannot help because of the age of the products?

    You needed to keep them when you first downloaded. It's vital to keep downloads you pay for, and to burn them to CD so you don't lose them if your disk fails. It is likely to be too late to get these now, but let's see if someone has any info that might help. Good luck!

  • Lightroom and Photoshop Elements 12 transfer/sharing problem'

    I'm new to Adobe Lightroom 5 and Photoshop Elements 12.   I open a Lightroom image in Photoshop Elements 12 by using Photo-->Edit In--> PSE12.  I make a change in PSE12, and then "save."  I understand that I'm supposed to overwrite the default file name.  But, when I go back to LR, my PSE changes are not saved.  What am I doing wrong?

    I noticed the same problem when I upgraded to elements 12 in december. Also using LR 5.3 on mac running 10.8.5. When using the save command in PSE usually the saved file was not visible in LR. I posted in the forum then without any positive responses. As I worked the problem myself  I noticed that when saving from PSE if I used the "save as" command instead of the "save" command and then answered in the affirmative to overwrite the existing file the edits would save back to LR without fail. I have been using this technique for the last 6 weeks or so and haven't had any edits fail to return to LR. I have no idea why this would fix the problem as all the instructional material says not to use the save as command. I suspect it is a bug in PSE12 but because it's "only" elements no one at adobe is paying any attention. Anyway, try that and see if it solves your problem. It worked for me although I can't explain why.

    christineae
    It is not clear if your Premiere Elements 10 was a downloaded purchase from Adobe or from an authorized reseller.
    However, do you have a purchased serial number for the product?
    If you have the purchased serial number, you can download Premiere Elements 10 tryout files from the following web site
    and insert your purchased serial number in them during installation to make them your own.
    Photoshop Elements 10 Direct Download Links: Free Trials, Premiere | ProDesignTools
    It is important to read and carry out carefully that web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" in order to avoid an Access Denied message.
    Just in case message....
    But there could be a complication with regard to files from any source.
    Adobe allows you to have the purchased activated serial number on no more than 2 of your computers.
    If your failed computer has Premiere Elements trapped on it representing 1 purchased serial number, you will be able to installed
    the purchased serial number on only one more computer. If you have the purchased activated serial number trapped on 2 failed
    computers, then you will not be able to use that purchased serial number on another computer until you deactivate at least one
    on one of the other two computers. In this case, it is only Adobe who might be able to help you. None of this may apply to you. I mention
    it as a just in case caution.
    Please let us know if you have any questions or need clarification.
    Thank you.

    What exactly means "refuses"?
    This is the message which comes up if I try to update (from the Help menu) or re-install my licenced copies of CS6 or Photoshop Elements 9.
    “We've encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize.Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem”
    Get Adobe Support Advisor”
    OR
    on trying to open PhotoshopCS6 I get this message:-
    “Adobe Application Manager required to start your trial, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager_uk”
    When I follow these instructions and try and start up/install or update Photoshop CS6 I get the same messages all over again. This has been going on since Tuesday afternoon and I am anxiuous to resolve the problem. For several years now all this has worked perfectly through your website and I cannot understand what has changed.  Once I cancel these messages the products themselves seem to function OK. When I attempt to use Adobe Update Manager I get the same messages as above. You will see that my products are properly licensed and up to date. Have you any solution?

    Hi I have the old photo shop elements 10 on my computer and want to update and was wondering what the differences between photoshop, lightroom and photoshop elements are?
    Also when I upgrade does it have to be with a monthly membership or can I just purchase the product out right like you use to be able?

    You cannot "update" from what you have to any of the applications you mention. It will have to be a straight purchase or subscription at full price.
    Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
    Lightroom is all about volume, and very light editing.
    The Photoshop Elements forum is at:

    Remember, you are not addressing Adobe here in the user forums.  You are requesting help from volunteers users just like you who give their time free of charge. No one has any obligation to answer your questions.
    I do not know where there is such a comparison table as you seek, but someone else might, or you can google.

  • Cannot Install the Raw 7.3 update for Premiere Elements 11 and photoshop Elements

    I get an error message when I try to update the  Raw 7.3 update for Premiere Elements 11 and photoshop Elements. It says to run support adviser which I did, but it says that it could not detect any problems.
    Thanks,

    The next step will be to review the installation logs for the cause of the installation failure.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret your installation logs at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • Using iPhoto, Aperture 3 and Photoshop Elements 9 together...

    Hi everyone,
    I recently upgraded from iPhoto to Aperture. It does almost everything I need but there are some much more advanced editing tools in Photoshop Elements that I need occasionally and also I like to be able to quickly create attractive template based e-mails using iPhoto, so I need all three apps.
    Currently I have my photo library in Aperture 3 but it's really clunky to create attractive photo emails using iPhoto because I have to click 'Show Aperture Library', which is very difficult to navigate and is pretty much unusable. My next attempt is going to be to see whether I keep all my pictures in an iPhoto library and then browse and edit them in Aperture and Photoshop Elements.
    Has anyone got any tips on this topic?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Hi Ernie,
    Thanks for your post. I will try to explain in a little more detail what the problem I'm having is. If I want to create an iPhoto picture template e-mail, say a postcard, then I select File/Show Aperture Library. A browser window pops up. If I browse to 'Projects' then the previews of each project are huge - about 6 fit on a screen with the window maximised. I can't find a way of zooming out in order that I can browse the hundreds of projects in my Aperture library. Is there a way of doing this? Also, I can't seem to control the sort order. The options in View/Sort Order seem to sort the iPhoto album, not the Aperture library browser.
    If I select Photos from the navigation tree then I get previews of all my 13'000 pictures and about 100 fit on the screen. Again, I don't seem to be able to zoom in/out nor control the sort order.
    What surprised me this morning is that I finally deleted my old iPhoto library and then opened iPhoto to see how it would react. I selected whatever the default was (forgot already!) and now I see my iPhoto library as it was before I deleted it. However, I can't find the library in my Pictures folder. Could it be that iPhoto is reading it from the trash can??
    Finally - is there a way of adding pictures to my posts in this forum? Perhaps I could illustrate the views i'm getting in iPhoto's Aperture library browser.
    Yours,
    Jim

    The 7D Mark II requires ACR plug-in 8.7 which came out after PSE13 was the current version so you can upgrade or use the DNG Converter 8.7 or newer to create DNGs from the CR2s and those DNGs will work with the older ACR plug-in versions.
