Repair your stuff and/ or fix the archive. And also refer to the topic on teh front page about issues on OSX 10.7.

  • Can't install Photoshop Elements after downloading

    I just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements and downloaded it to my new laptop (MacBook Air OS X, 10.7.2).  It has apparently downloaded completely but when I click the Install button, I get the message "The following disk images couldn't be opened, invalid checksum".  I went back to the software library and downloaded it again, as suggested, and it still didn't work.  Please help!

    No, I haven't had any problems with other disc images.  I checked to see that Photoshop had downloaded completely and it had (.dmg).  I don't have an inti-virus program to disable, I restarted the computer and clicked on the installation icon again, and each time that I did that, the same message appeared.  I have not yet gotten as far the screen which asks for the registration #.

  • How do I open a photograph in Photoshop Elements after downloading the new OS Photos ?

    How do I open a photograph in a photo editing software (photshop Elements) after updating my OS to Photos ?

    Thank you Terence.  I did try that and found it do-able, however, it's too time consuming.  The easier fix was to remove 'Photos' from the task bar, go to finder and repin iPhoto and use it.  I am rather amazed that Apple decided to configure this program,  in such a way.   No plugins, no right click to edit in another program??    I guess I fail to see the big picture or big PHOTOS ? 

  • Trouble opening Photoshop Elements 11

    I recently bought a Wacom pen tablet and it came with an offer to download Photoshop Elements 11 for free. As I usually work with Elements 7, I decided to download the software, but when I try to click on the desktop shortcut to run the program, the loading spinner will appear briefly and then disappear. The program does not open. I tried restarting my computer and I tried reinstalling but to no avail. I gave up and tried to return to using Elements 7, but now even that program is experiencing the same problem. It just won't open.
    I tried finding a .PSD file and opening the program that way, which was slightly more useful. The usual Photoshop initializing banner showed up and it appeared to be opening, but then it stops and I get this message: "Adobe Photoshop Elemens 11 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." with the only option to "Close program"
    I already tried the solution of deleting the preferences as mentioned in this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/5922614. It didn't work. And I run Windows 7.

    I have yet to solve this issue... Can anyone offer any advice?

  • Need help opening Photoshop Elements 11; downloaded, but won't open, please help?

    I recently purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 an downloaded it, but it will not open.  I receive a message that states that I need to 'uninstall' and then to 'reinstall'.  How do I do this and where is the software available again to reinstall?
    Thank you for your help!

    If you are using a PC, then you use the Control Panel interface to uninstall most any software.  To reinstall, you should be able to download it from Adobe's site.  If you cannot find a link to download it via your account (log in and see) then you could also download and install the trial version and use your serial number from the purchase to activate it.

  • Opening Photoshop elements 12 download?

    It says I've downloaded photoshop elementary 12 and what I have is "Open PhotoshopElements_12_WWEFDJ.dmg" but it won't open.  How do I start this program?

    Double click the dmg file and you should see a little rectangular white box on the desktop. Double click that to see the installer. That's all assuming you're using a mac. If not, you downloaded the mac version and will need to go back and get the windows version.

  • Can't Download Photos to Adobe Photoshop Elements after iPhone Upgrade

    Howdy, I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 with my iPhone ever since I bought my iPhone 3G when they came out and have never had any trouble. Whenever I synced my phone and there were new photos on it, Photoshop Elements would start it's photo downloader program and let me download the pics from my phone and put them in the organizer. Then it would let me delete them.
    But this weekend I took a bunch of photos and now Photoshop Elements startes up during the sync as usual, but before it lets me download any pictures I get a message from Photoshop Elements saying "Downloader needs to close" (or something like that) and I never get the chance to download the pictures. The only way I have to get the pictures off my phone right now is to mail them as attachments.
    A few days ago I upgraded to the 2.2 iPhone software and I was wondering if this might be the source of the problem. Has anyone else heard of any problems like this?

    I'm having the same problem with Elements 6.0. The downloader starts up and I can see the first few pictures in the downloader before the error message comes up and the downloader must shut down. The only way to get pictures off the phone is through Win Explorer. But, when you try to remove the pics off the phone (i.e. move or delete) the phone reboots. The only way to remove the pics is one at a time on the phone itself.
    It is extremely frustrating that Apple has created a decent way to sync music and video, but no iTunes way to handle pictures. Honestly I amazed that Apple has worked so hard to be the standard for music, etc. that they just leave it to the consumer to figure out the picture stuff. Come on Apple.

  • Every time I try to open Photoshop Elements 12, it opens the Adobe login, after I login the program does not open:( Help please?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • Could not open photoshop elements 10 after loading

    Could not open photoshop elements 10 after loading from disk.

    Which component of the program are you trying to open? It's better to bypass the useless welcome screen and launch organizer or editor directly from applications, then make dock icons for them if you want them always accessible. Organizer is self-evident, but this is the editor:
