The famous Photomerge Panorama problem is resolved!

The PSE7 Panorama Error problem that has plagued me and that I've posted about here is now resolved. And this may help others who are still having it.
I run a program I found a long time ago called CCleaner. I assumed that, whenever I ran it, it cleaned everything bad, including the Registry. My good wife said no, it doesn't, and showed me how to clean the registry. There was a ton of junk in there and out it went. Tried the Panorama and eureka!, it worked.
CCleaner is a free program.
Thanks to all who made suggestions.

Why is Adobe continuing to ignore the many forum threads inquiring about this same problem? IMO, this issue continuing year-after-year (and version after version) represents irresponsible decision-making on the part of their Change Control Board / maintenance management, for such a fundamental operation as photo-stitching.
In particular, when the same two images can be merged successfully using any of a number of separate photo-stitch apps from other vendors, yet crashes Adobe Photoshop, then ipso facto, where do YOU think the blame lies?
In my opinion as a software programmer, an attempt to perform such a basic operation as merging two images, regardless of their size, should NOT cause a frickin' crash. Programmatically, this speaks to (a) poor memory management, and (b) terrible error-detection/handling/reporting.
By several accounts in those forum threads, this problem continues with the latest OS updates, the latest driver updates, the latest Adobe Photoshop updates/versions, more-than-adequate RAM, more-than-adequate disk space, AFTER re-setting the Adobe Photoshop Preferences to defaults, etc., etc., etc. ... Crashing Adobe Photoshop is an unacceptable outcome for such a fundamental operation, even if one is working with photos that are truly of larger-than-normal size. It's COMPLETELY inexcusable when the images in question are of standard sizes produced by current-day camera technology. The workaround of resizing the original photos is an unacceptable option for someone who is attempting to maximize a print size without resolution loss.

Elements 8 - Mac OS10.6 Photomerge Panorama Problem

When I click on the File>New>Photomerge Panorama an error message "JavaScript code was missing" appears. And Photomerge Panorama will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled PSE8 but the problem persists.

No. I did ask Adobe Support and they said it was a problem with the operating system. Which to me is a dead end. Hopefully somebody out there can figure out what and where the JavaScript file Elements is looking for and tell the rest of us.
Sorry for not having an answer. Good luck on your quest.

Has the duplicate erroneous thumbnail problem been resolve in the current Elements software?

I have used both Elements and Lightroom in the past, but have dropped both because of the redundant thumbnails of the same photo when they are moved from one folder to another. Since the complete file only resides on one place other thumbnails are present but only serve to complicate finding the actual file.
I purchased a new Lightroom, but the problem still exists with the current software.
My questions regard the handling of files within Elements. I have 50,000 photos in my inventory and with a work flow that requires moving existing photos from one folder to another, I can not afford to generate erroneous thumbnails with each subsequent move.
Has Adobe addressed the duplicate and erroneous thumbnail problem in the current Elements software? Does the use of Bridge avoid this problem? Is Bridge available within Elements? Is Camera Raw available within Elements? What is the annual cost of Elements if procured thru Creative Cloud without access to the full Photoshop program?

Jerry,
I don't understand your problem. Moving files from within either Elements or Lightroom doesn't create redundant thumbnails.
There has been problems in older versions of Elements where the 'Folders' view was corrupted and did not show the real content of the folders.
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Folder_Location_view
If that's what you have experienced, the problem is solved since PSE11.
Without knowing exactly your workflow, it's difficult to understand your problem. Moving files from folder to folder require taking into account the possibility of files with the same name already existing in the destination folder. Do you get files renamed with a suffix in the destination folder ?
- Bridge is not available with Elements
- The camera raw version in Elements is limited to the 'basic' and 'detail' panels
- Elements is not available in the Cloud subscriptions.

Using the photomerge panorama function in Elements 10

I have just installed Elements 10 and when trying to use the Photomerge Panorama function the whole programme shuts down. I have tried re-installing the programme and the problem is still there. I have tried using the instructions fron The Dummies handbook but the problem persists.

I've moved your question to the Photoshop Elements forum to get the best results.

How to open Photomerge Panorama in PSE 12. The option is not available when I choose File/New.

In PSE 12 (iOS) I can't find "Photomerge Panorama". The tutorial says it should be available in the menu File/New. Yet it isn't.

It's now under the Enhance menu in the Expert mode in the pse 12 editor.
Edit>Photomerge in the pse 12 organizer.

Why is Pages 5.2 telling me it can't save my document until problem is resolved -- how do I find out what the problem is and how do I resolve it?

I'm working on an iMac OS 10.9.3. I downloaded Pages 5.2 and am using it to edit a long document with multiple images. Formatting disappears (style headings, for example), then when I try to move an image, the program tells me it can't autosave until problem is resolved. I don't know what the problem is or have any inking of how to resolve it. I can't move the document to another destination, or duplicate it. I've had multiple program crashes and am not getting anywhere. Sure could use some help in salvaging this important document.

That is not the full message, and what does it say exactly?
What exactly are you intending to do with this file?
If you are going to take it to a commercial (digital or offset?) printer, how do you propose doing that? In what format? What output are you aiming at? Have you actually spoken to a printer about what you are putting together?
If alarm bells are not ringing for you yet, I am not sure what it is going to take to alert you to the mine fields you have just entered.

I am using itunes 10 and trying to consolidate my files. I keep getting the error "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long". How can I indentify what file is causing this problem or resolve this issue?

BUMP
Yes, I just get that message. I don't see how I could investigate this problem.
I didn't mention that this happened when I was consolidating my library, not copying files to another computer.
In other words, I'm using a "normal" itunes procedure, itunes won't complete it, and won't tell me exactly why or how to figure out how to fix it...
Is there at least some easy way to tell which files were successfully copied to my itunes music folder so I can work on moving the uncopied files?
Can anybody help me?

Hey, I've got the same problem. Did you find any help or solution by now?

Shortly after launching into itunes, it freezes and I get the following message: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. How do I resolve this issue?

That is what I thought. Cannot figure out how to turn it off, though.
However, when I talked to her over the phone, she is definitely using Firefox. I tried to access her Internet Explorer, but it has been deactivated, I believe by Firefox.
She primarily uses the Internet to communicate with her kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. Her e-mail account is with Yahoo Mail, and she uses Firefox to access it. Occasionally, she uses the web to look up information, and may have downloaded a virus.
Do you think there's something in Yahoo Mail that conflicts with Firefox? Is there some remnant of Internet Explorer that needs to be deactivated? Could she have a virus?
Any information would be gratefully appreciated. I live 7 hours away, and can only help her over the phone. I'm trying to develop a course of action that I can use with her. I know a little bit about Firefox, so need your expertise.

The username is the name attached to your Home folder - /Users/username/. If you don't know the password then it can be changed but you will need the installer DVD that came with the computer for the installed version of OS X. You have not provided that information.

The 'photomerge panorama' title on Photoshop Elements 11 is 'grayed out'. How can I make it work?

ELHID labs,
As your question applies to Photoshop Elements, I will Move your post there. Your links and any e-mail subscriptions will follow perfectly.
Also, I think that Steve G. and Neale have given you some great direction to getting your Panorama "stitching" working for you.
Good luck,

I am trying to create a panorama, when I enter File New I don't get the Photomerge Panorama option, the only options that appear are Blank file and File from clipboard. How do I get photomerge panorama

I am trying to create a panorama. When I enter FILE > NEW > the Photomere panorama option does not appear. the only options are Blank file and file from clipboard. This is in Elements 11 on Windows 8.1 OS. How do I get Photomerge Panorama to appear.

Since PSE11, you access the photomerge option in the 'Enhance' menu, last option. Or you can use the organizer (menu Edit / Photomerge).

Hello:>
I created a function "APEX_030200.wwv_flow_epg_include_mod_local" as a sys user, then I dropped it.>
You can't have 'created' this function ! The function is installed by the APEX installer. This function needs to exist in the database for APEX to function correctly. Install the function described below into your database
CREATE OR REPLACE function APEX_030200.wwv_flow_epg_include_mod_local(
    procedure_name in varchar2)
return boolean
is
begin
    return false; -- remove this statement when you modify this function
    -- Administrator note: the procedure_name input parameter may be in the format:
    --    procedure
    --    schema.procedure
    --    package.procedure
    --    schema.package.procedure
    -- If the expected input parameter is a procedure name only, the IN list code shown below
    -- can be modified to itemize the expected procedure names. Otherwise you must parse the
    -- procedure_name parameter and replace the simple code below with code that will evaluate
    -- all of the cases listed above.
    if upper(procedure_name) in (
          '') then
        return TRUE;
    else
        return FALSE;
    end if;

Can anyone advise how to resolve the 'unexpected and unrecoverable problem..?

I am running PS CS5 in Windows 7 and it has been
fine for six months. It now presents the dreaded 'unexpected...' error messages and crashes on start-up, also freezing the interface so I cannot close it. Can anyone suggest the best course of action to resolve this. I also ruun Lightroom 3 and InDesign and both of these work fine.
Thanks in anticipation

You might want to try to move forward first, and failing that drop back.
What I mean is that you should try these things, and test after each one to see if the problem is resolved.
1. Bring all software and drivers up to date. For example, visit the web site of the maker of your video card and download / install their driver that matches your video card and operating system. If you can, choose Help - Updates... in Photoshop, and if you can't go to the Adobe site and download the latest update manually.
2. Clear Photoshop's preferences to defaults by pressing and holding Control - Shift - Alt immediately after cold-starting Photoshop from its menu entry or shortcut. If you're quick enough, it will prompt you to confirm deletion of the current settings. Note that you'll have to review and remake your personal preference customizations, though if you save a named Workspace prior to doing this you can restore it to get your panel positions back.
3. Deconfigure OpenGL Drawing by going into Edit - Preferences - Performance and unchecking the [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing setting. Remember to restart Photoshop before testing this.
4. Use your Windows System Restore function to drop your system configuration back to a date when you know the software was working. This assumes something on your system has changed making Photoshop unworkable.
Good luck.
