Trial version of Photoshop Elements 9 installed but doesn't run.

I recently installed Photoshop Elements 9 on computer running Windows 7 and it installed correctly.  When I try to run edit or organzer the flashing bar starts but neither program runs.  Adobe support wouldn't help since it was a trial version. Any suggestions?

Try making a direct desktop icon for the Organizer and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
On Windows right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Browse to Computer OS C:
And find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
Inside the Adobe >> Photoshop Elements Organizer (yellow folder) you are looking for an application file “PhotoshopEementsOrganizer” with six small icons (e.g. representing thumbnails)
Select it and click OK
Click next
Rename by taking out Photoshop Elements leaving just the word Organizer
Then click finish
You should now be able to launch directly form the desktop by double clicking on the icon.
You can set up a similar direct link to the Editor application (.exe file which has the blue PSE icon). As before take out Photoshop Elements just leaving the description Editor and it will show up clearly on the desktop.
 It often helps if you right click on a desktop icon and choose “Run As administrator”

    Please tell us if you are installing on Windows or Mac.
    Do you have any other Adobe Product installed on the system?

  • I'm trying to install the 30-day trial version of Photoshop Elements 13 on my Mac

    I'm trying to install the 30-day trial version of Photoshop Elements 13 on my Mac.   I keep getting the following msg:
    OS requirement not met:
    -Current OS : Mac 10.7.5 64 bit
    - Max OS 10.8.0 or above required
    I'm running on OS X 10.7.5, so will I be unable to run Photoshop Elements 13?

    That is correct Mfrazier65.  Photoshop Elements 13 requires Mac OS 10.8 or later.  You can find a list of the system requirements at System requirements | Adobe Photoshop Elements.

    Matt59 yes you can install Photoshop Elements 13 separately.  The evaluation process is software title specific.

  • Can't seem to activate trial version of Photoshop Elements 6 (Mac)

    I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop Elements 6 for my Mac earlier this morning to check it out and purchased a license online not too soon after. The serial that was sent to me from Adobe's shop does not seem to work in activating the trial version I have installed. I've been on hold for tech support for almost an hour now. Does anyone know how to get Photoshop Elements for the Mac up and running using a serial purchased from Adobe's shop?

    Thanks for the response. I was hoping it wouldn't come down to that, but I decided to redownload the program (using the new link they provided) while on hold for tech support (which never answered in the hour I was waiting ) and reinstalled using that instead. I found out the 'proper' way of removing PSE from a response you gave in a previous thread and proceeded with the uninstall program. The newly downloaded file installed and updated without a hitch. Thanks again for your help!
    I love how Bridge can be used to import my images from my camera to where I want them to go as well as organize my photo collection. Not only does it display a preview of my selected image, but it also displays various other information associated with my photos as well. There's practically no need for me to keep iPhoto in my Dock anymore!

  • No "Download Now" button when trying to download a trial version of Photoshop Elements 10

    I am trying to download a trial version of Photoshop Elements 10 on my MacBook. When I press the "try" button I get the download page but there is no download button. What am I doing wrong?

    It sounds like their is either an issue with your web browser or the version of Java you have installed.  Try a different web browser, possibly even a browser you haven't utilized previously, and see if you have the same difficulties.

  • I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4) and attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and need assistance

    I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4).  The installation to my hard drive went fine so I attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and am uncertain as to how to "add" the Elemnts to my existing filter choices.  Please advise.

    I'm sorry but it's very hard to understand what you mean. What filter menu? In which program? Do you mean you're trying to use PSE as an external editor with some other asset management program? Which one?

  • Why is it taking 3 hours to download trial version of photoshop, elements 10?

    I am trying to download trial version of Photoshop Elements 10 and it saya it will take 3 hours to download. Why does it take so long? I thought the days of long downloads were like the dinosaurs, a thing of the past.

    I am the author of above post, and I want adobe to be aware that I have uninstalled their product and will not be considering any products to be purchased from them. I spent several hrs. last night and all day today watching hour after hour of tutorials on the elements program and was still unable to complete a single project. I phoned support. Their return call was 3 hrs later than they said it would be and then they hung up before I even spoke to a CS rep.or support tech. You want the money, Adobe, but ypou don't want to put a user friendly program on the market, nor do want to make sure that sufficent support is out there for those of us brave enough or stupid enough to actually try to master your products. I WILL NOT, EVER, CONSIDER PURCHASING ONE OF YOUR PRODUCTS AGAIN. Just to get to a forum or tutoria, which are not thurough, takes a miricale and several hours.
