Trying to install Photoshop Elements 3.0 in Windows 8

My friend has given me Photoshop Elements 3.0 (2004 copyright one), and I tried installing it. It said Adobe 7 was not compatible.
How can I use this program on my computer. I really dislike Windows 8!!!

What do you mean by "Adobe 7"?  What is the full and exact message?
Anyway, try to install it under Windows XP Compatibility Mode.
B.t.w. this is the Adobe Reader forum; you may get better help if you ask in the Photoshop Elements forum.

    I am trying to install Photoshop Elements on my new Windows 8 computer (I recently upgraded my windows 7 computer where Photoshop was working fine on before).  It says the serial number is invalid.  Do older versionsnot work on Windows8, or do I need to uninstall it from my old computer first?

    You are allowed to have two activated installations.  If you happened to have one on this Windows 8 machine before, it is possible that the activation used for it was never deactivated (did you deactivate it before you upgraded Windows?).  Talk to Adobe support thru chat.  They might be able to resolve this with you:

  • I'm trying to install Photoshop Elements 10 onto Windows XP sp 3. I'm getting error 1335

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install Photoshop Elements 10 onto a Windows XP sp3 PC. The installer is giving me an error with data13.cab
    Have error checked the hard drive
    Have defragged the hard drive
    Have tried install from internal DVD drive
    Have tried install from network copy of the install DVD (made from a different DVD drive)
    Have tried install logged into Windows as a brand new user account.
    Installer can't get Element_StarFrameCircle.psd, although windows seems happy enough with the cab file.
    Have downloaded trial version from Adobe website but that wouldn't run either (exe file is corrupt, but this is mentioned as a possibility on the web site)
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Stuart

    Stuard_Hubbard I would recommend following the steps listed in Error 1311, 1335, or 2350 "Source file not found...data1.cab" when installing Adobe products | Windows.  The error is indicating there is either a problem with your installation media or the Windows Installer Service installed on your computer.  Please feel free to respond to this thread if you have any questions about the steps listed within the document.

  • Installing Photoshop Elements 1.01 on Windows 8

    To Whom it May Concern,
    I'm trying to install Photoshop Elements 1.01 on Windows 8, but the system won't let me.
    Please let me know how i can install this version.  Thank you.
    RON

    Do you really mean Photoshop Elements version 1.01 which shipped in 2000?
    If so, it's very unlikely that that version will run on Windows 8.

    You haven't mentioned which version of PSE. If it is PSE 13, that requires a minimum of windows 7.

    There is no serial number for CC Cloud versions. They are authenticated via your Adobe ID.
    Sign in to your Cloud account with your Adobe ID and download the software via the Cloud app.

  • "Shared Resources error" when trying to install Photoshop Elements 11

    I keep getting installation error "Shared Resources error" when trying to install Photoshop Elements 11 (Windows 7).  Any advice will be appreciated..

    Welcome to the forum, Ted,
    Here's an older "Shared Technologies" thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3155897#3155897
    But, I am not sure that we were ever able to help the OP, and they never reported back with the responses from Adobe. Still, might be a tip that is useful.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    [Edit] I mis-spoke. The OP and another user with the same error WERE helped. What I saw initially was yet another poster, who was going to contact Adobe, but never came back to the thread. In the case of the OP and another users, the issue was caused by having Adobe Bridge, included with other Adobe programs, like Photoshop and Premiere Pro, running. When they killed that, the installation went well.

  • Im trying to install Photoshop Elements premier 12 on my new Mac with the latest update and i keep getting the same failed to initialise message.

    Im trying to install Photoshop Elements premier 12 on my new Mac with the latest update and i keep getting the same failed to initialise message. I was able to register the key code at first but now im not able to either open the program or reinstall it.

    What is "Photoshop Elements Premier 12"? Do you mean Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements? Were your files copied over from a previous mac that had PSE installed on it?

  • I have a new computer  am trying to install photoshop elements 5.0 on the new machine need reg-id

    how cab I find my registration id... I have the cd and the booklet, but not the original case... is it viewable in the old machine?

    Jeff, Thanks for the reply.  I don't have proof of purchase.. all I kept was the two cd's and the instruction book.I bought it in June of 2008, and don't think I have bank records that far back.I was hoping I could get the information from my installed copy.. there a long number on the bottom rightwhen I open it, but that didn't work and a number etched on the back of the cd... but it too didn't work....

    It is not viewable on your old computer.  We may be able to get you a replacement serial number.  Do you still have your proof of purchase for Photoshop Elements 5?
