Registering Photshop Album Starter Edition

I received a copy of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 with a new computer and I am unable to register it, I have Windows XP Media Center 2005. I have DSL that normally works fine & I use Mozilla as my browser.
I fill out the registration form and I then try to submit it . In less than a second, i get 3 windows in succesion the last of which reads "Internet connection failed."
I have only 10 more chances to use the program
Thanx david

First off, there is no PSA 3 or 4. The "final" version of PSA was version 2. The other upgrade path is to Photoshop Elements [4 now, 5 very son]. These are all compatible with what you have now.
It's hard to encapsulate what you gain with each. With Elements you get very powerful image editing facilities. You get more orgainizing options.
Adobe posoition their products something like this:
PSA SE 3 - absolute beginners and inexperienced amateurs
PSE - more experienced amateurs
PS CS - very demanding amateurs and pros

  • Using photoshop album starter edition 3.o and need to copy to laptop, missing my program cd.

    I am presently using photshop album starter edition 3.) and need to copy to new laptop.  I have misplaced my program cd.  Is there any way I can get this program on my laptop.  It is windows 7 and the photshop is on XL.  Thanks so much.

    I am sorry but we no longer have older software available for download.  I am not sure Photoshop Album Starter Edition would even function in Windows 7. 
    I would recommend trying Photoshop Elements 10 on your new computer.  It has all the features of Photoshop Album Starter Editon plus many more.  On top of that it has been designed to work with Windows 7.  You can find more details at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html.

    It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
    If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
    The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
    Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
    If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
    Hope those tips help!

  • After registering on the album starter Edition 3.0, I am getting an error message saying that windows internet explorer cannot find the website, to make sure the path or internet address is correct.  when i click ok, it all goes away, adobe and all.  Help

    I called tech support that switched me to customer care and after over half an hour on the phone, they told me to look it up in the forums.  If you have any words of wisdom, I would love to hear them now.  I guess I have to get through this registering phase to obtain the unlock code.  I am surprised at how faulty this step is.  I expected more from Adobe.
    Please help!!!  Thanks.  Lisa

    You need to update your starter edition 3.0 to a 3.2 edition. Go to www.adobe.com, click on "Downloads" then "updates", continue to look under "Product updates" and scroll down to "Photoshop Elements". Now you need to download the Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. This update will automatically remove your 3.0 edition, and your photos will be accessible in the 3.2 edition. Now you can register again. Good Luck!

  • Unlocked, Registered and Working (Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition v3.0)

    Following several threads in this user-to-user forum, I lodged a bug report with Adobe and to my amazement, was promptly helped out of the sticky situation of not being able to connect to the internet/register Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition v3.0. After providing all my details and Windows version etc, Adobe came back with an unlock code matched to my email address and ... razzamatazz...problem cured. Moral is simple: lodge a bug report providing all information then and subsequently to Adobe, and sit back.

    The same thing happens to me, I've gotten the code and the "unlock now" button won't work. I've tried cut and paste and manually entering. I've tried registering again, and I've deleted the entire program and started over, still can't get the "UNLOCK NOW" to highlight for unlocking. Can't get code to "Enter", what am I doing wrong?

  • Cannot register my Photoshop Album Starter Edition!

    Hi,
    I'm using your free software Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, on Windows XP SP2 platform.
    I would like to register it, but each time I try I encounter the following problem:
    in the window "Status", after "Checking for Internet connection" and "Attempting to connect to Internet" dialog boxes, I receive the
    report "Unable to connect to site".
    What's happening? I use the broadband LAN Internet connection, so there can't be any problem with Internet access, even firewall is
    not "guilty" (I tried to switch it off, but the problem with registration persists).
    What should I do?

    If it's any help the thumbs.5.cache (at least in Windows XP) should be in:
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Catalog Folders\My PSE5 Catalog
    where My PSE5 Catalog is whatever your new PSE5 Catalog is called. It's a hidden
    sample folder so you need to enable seeing hidden files and folders to see it. Not sure about the tn.4.cache as a recent discussion here indicated that it's from an older version of Elements (PSE3) and PSE5 shouldn't have one. Renaming wouldn't help and might give problems. If you can't find the thumbs.5.cache it sounds like PSE5 is having trouble building it for some reason and I think I'd be contacting Adobe Tech Support.

  • Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 Photo's Locked in and Can't Get Them Help.

    I have Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0  and I never used it/registered it until today when I wanted to take all my photos and put them to disk and have them Printed off.  I can't do this anymore as their are no codes available and I've done all I can.  Please can anyone help I have over 500 photo's locked inside a bloody product I can't even acess.  is their anyway of getting the photo's off the product and onto disk.
    Please any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Arthur.

    I had a look in the starter forum.
    The answer is, if you can't get your unlock code from support, don't worry; your photos are not locked into Starter Edition.
    If you use Windows Explorer, you could go into My Documents > My Pictures, and look around, perhaps in an Adobe folder for your photos.

  • Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 with AOL desktop (AOL 10)

    I have fully patched XP SP2
    AOL 10 as default email client
    Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2, registered and unlocked.
    When setting pref for email client within Adobe PSE, AOL is not listed as an email option. I have reinstalled Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2, and unlocked, reinstalled AOL 10 (desktop) and reset it as the default email client. The default is working, as mailto: links in browsers open up AOL Desktop, and the email app listed at the top of the <START> button is AOL. How can I set it as an email client in Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2? Is there some registry hack? Interference with another app?

    Re 3.2 Photoshop. After I had some repair done to my computer, the photos in my album have the restricted little red square at the bottom of each photo. When I try to open the photo to fix or print a message box comes on that nothing can be done because of overide problem. In fact it closes the photoshop immediately because of this error. Is there anything I can do? - if I search the Browse button I get absolutely no connection or a march. This is most frustrating. I tried calling tech assistance, they could not help me infact hung up on me. What sort of helpfull assistance is that? Should there be any helpfull suggestions, other than uninstalling (Have done that) and reinstalling (done that) nothing seems to work. I cannot even copy those photos to a disk, the photoshop closes down immediately. Help. Donna

  • Need help regarding Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0

    Thanks in advance for helping me.
    When I got a new camera about 4 years ago, it came with this software. I loaded it up, but never used it. I normally just create a new folder on my desktop and click and drag the shots from the computer to the desktop. I do this by just opening up my computer, find the external drive and then click and drag.
    Here is the problem though. My wife decided to download photos from my daughters b-day party. When she plugged in the card reader, this photo album starter automatically opened and started to drag the photos into the program.
    Although this shouldn't be a problem it is a large issue. Since I never used the product, I never registered for it either. So when I just tried to register for it, it told me the program is no longer able to be registered for. And when I hit the register later button, it shuts down the program. Therefore, it will not allow me to grab the photos and save them to a file on my desktop.
    Can anyone tell me a way around this, please?
    Stu

    You need to ask in the Photoshop Album Starter Edition forum.

  • Get photos from Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2

    We have some images stored in Photoshop Album Starter edition 3.2. When we now try to open the photos, we are told to register us for an unlocking code, which we never get. I have also tried to call Adobe support, but they could not help us with this because this program does not longer exists. And then support told us to go to this forum for further assistance. Anyone here who know how we can get access to our photos again?
