Trying to reinstall PSE 2.0 on winxp after a computer crash.

I had PSE 2.0 working just fine on my computer before a crash.  After getting Winxp SP3 back up and running, I tried to reinstall PSE from my original disk, and it just turns off with the hard drive working for a while.  No warnings, etc.  Then I tried exploring the disk and found the installation file and clicked on "setup.exe" and got the same result.
I managed to restore the old c:programs for PSE, but the program "PhotoshopElements.exe" is a Dos command and won't open anything.
I was able to install PSE 8.0 with no problem, but I don't like it as much as my 2.0 (Loads faster and no additional "Organize"etc.)

This can be caused by anti-virus software/ real time scanners. Please try to disable your anti-virus software real time scanner and try again. Do not forget to enable it after the download is complete!'

    I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues.  Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time.  Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......."  There is no other Adobe product installing.  I have used the Adobe Cleaner Tool many times and uninstalled other Adobe Products but neither has worked.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled this CD version of Dreamweaver several times when changing computers and after having computer issues. A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.  Please help.

    Absolutely not. You are misinterpreting things. The activation check never happens when just running the installer, only much later. It means what it says - there is another "install" pending/ active on your system, meaning somewhere there is an (invisible) process still blocking things. Either way, since you haven't provided any real technical info, we can't advise specifically. if you are on Windows, you may want to check your task manager and terminate any setup.exe and msiexec.exe processes plus potentially may need to manually fix/ delete some registry keys. For anything beyond that you will have to be much more specific.

  • I got a certification error when trying to reinstall PSE 12.

    The error came when the Adobe Download Assistant. was trying to be installed.
    I am using OS X 10.9.1.
    I have to reinstall PSE 12 because the Organizer bombed.  I have used PSE since version 6.  Now my PSE Organizer shows no media.  The folders show but nothing is in them. Weird. Thanks for any help.

    Hi cgad1255,
    Instead of using the Adobe Download Assistant to install the program (since you encountered an error),
    Please try downloading it from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
    But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

  • Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements after Mac upgrade to Yosemite 10.10 on iMac

    Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements 12 after the Mac upgrade to OS X Yosemite 10.10 on iMac. I have had a number of issues with software and things after upgrading to OS X Yosemite 10.10 and even 10.10.1.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled both PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 a number of times and everything goes fine until its ready to launch and then you get an error message. Numerous uninstalled and reinstalls don't removing the problem.  Strangely enough  PSE 11 still appears to boot up and I never owned Premier Elements 11 so I don't know if it will start. I thought with Apple dropping its Apeture software and greater integration of iPhoto and Apeture files into Lightroom 5.7 all would be harmonious between these two players. Im not sure where Adobe wants us to go it recently removed the plugin to allow you to update files from LR to Adobe Revel, whats up with that. I now own two version of Adobe software that no longer work with my Mac and now way of uploading pictures from Lightroom to Revel. Needless to say I am pretty reluctant to sign on to a subscription of Creative Cloud with long term financial obligations when I can't even get my current Adobe software to work independently much less integrate with Lightroom. Frustrated with it all!

    Get rid of 'put disks to sleep when possible' and you may see a dramatic improvement (not necessarily a cure).
    That specific problem is a multiple-Processor (including graphics processor) problem, where one of the processors lost track of whether it should be responding to interrupts. You may have a Hardware problem.

  • Why "Wrong Recovery Key" When Generated By Firefox When Trying To Sync "Without A Device" After Original Computer Crash

    My computer crashed and for reasons unknown to me, Mozy didn't back up my Mozilla Firefox files, which I realize are hidden but are no where to be found on Mozy's backup. All I have is my iphone that does have Firefox on it and a new computer. However, the iphone will not sync with the new computer in "discovery mode". And, when I try to perform a sync on the new computer, with a new download of Firefox, clicking "without a device", it generates a recovery key which it in turn rejects as invalid - over and over. Please advise. Also, will an iphone sync with a computer and/or generate a recovery key? My iphone Firefox app doesn't seem to have the capability - anywhere to be found - to generate such a key. Is there any way to copy the bookmarks from the phone to the computer? Lastly, still another mystery, my Firefox account has an old email address, that I need to change, but I have no earthly idea of how to do that either.

    Thanks for trying to help, but I have an iphone and not an Android. When in blue tooth mode and now discoverable, it won't discover. Other than discover, to my knowledge, there is no sync button on the iphone app.

  • I am trying to reinstall PSE 9 after a computer reformat and I keep getting a message that it is the incorrect serial number for the trial. I bought the program in February of 2011, and I think I've only had it on one computer and that's this one. Windows

    I had to have my computer reformatted in July,  and am just now trying to install PSE9. When I tried to enter the serial number I got a dialog box that stated that this serial number was not valid for the trial. I bought this. According to my profile, I bought in in February 2011. I have only had it on this computer and I have never installed Premier Elements.  Can you help please?  Thank you, Kayt

  • Tried to reinstall PSE 12 after factory reset on laptop.  Download will not accept product code.  Adobe wants me to buy subscript to get help. REALLY!

    Oooops, title says it all.  Anybody know what to do about the download issue?

    What do you mean by "product code"? If you mean a redemption code, you only use that the first time, then your serial number goes into the actual program, no matter how many times you need to reinstall it.
    Try this:
    Find your serial number quickly
    If there's nothing useful on the page, you can start a chat session with adobe there. Just keep going when it looks like you got looped back to the starting page--it's not really the same page at all.

  • Trying to Reinstall iTunes: Can't find it after Download

    This morning I tried to update iTunes. It failed. I got a message to reinstall iTunes. I've removed iTunes from the computer and downloaded the installer but it does not appear in Downloads or Desktop. Where would it be?

    I have faced such kind of issue while downloading iTunes it says thank you for downloading tunes but it does not get downloaded not sure why that happens but you can download iTunes from "filehippo" just search for filehippo on google and go to www.filehippo.com and from there in the search box search for iTunes and download iTunes 32 bit or 64 bit according to your windows version. You can find windows version by right click on My Computer and then Properties.

  • I tried to reinstall CS 6 after my computer crashed.  Now I cannot access any of the windows (e.g. on the paragraph  style window my mouse does not move me to a new style as it does not move the slider)

    I had to reinstall the CS 6 after a crash.  Now I cannot move any slider with my mouse on any window.  This means I cannot change a style, or a swatch, I cannot move to a master page.

    I used the CD and followed the directions  and accepted all the default.

  • Trying to reinstall my own ipod shuffle on my new computer???

    alright here is the situation.
    my old computer died a sad horrible death. my beloved preschooler destroyed my backup CD so i have nothing. I have reinstalled my itunes and software, but i don't want to lose all the music i currently have on the ipod shuffle.
    does anyone know of a way to import the music from the ipod into itunes?
    Jessica

    Hello Jessica. Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You can either manually transfer your music to iTunes:

    Or you can use free third-party services like, for example, try YamiPod. See if this post that contains a list of these kind of services helps you:

  • Does PSE 10 save files automatically if my computer crashes/shuts down suddenly?

    Hi, I was drawing out the base lines for a painting I am making with Photoshop Elements 10, when I left briefly. I think my computer decided it wanted to do updates suddenly, and it shut down everything. When I rebooted my computer and re-opened PSE 10, I couldn't find the file. Of course, I'm an idiot and neglected to "save as" before I left the room because someone in my house required my immediate attention.
    Does PSE 10 save your project at all if suddenly your computer shuts down or crashes? If so, then how to I find those files? Or am I screwed? Because I liked how it was turning out and I had spent a lot of time to get to the point I was at before my computer decided it hated itself. So, I'd really like to get that file back...
    Thank you.

    No, unfortunately there is no autosave in PSE.
