Upgrade for elements 8

Just starting to use elements with a Mac laptop. Should I upgrade elements 8? Must I buy the new software or is there an upgrade? If so, what is the fee to upgrade?

PSE10 comes with the Layer Mask and other new features which I think is worth the upgrade. There is no need to remove PSE8; the two versions can happily co-exist. Elements doesn’t physically import photos; it only makes links to the files on your hard drive. As most of the information is stored in the catalog DB, the program files themselves don’t use up a huge amount of space.
Many users keep different versions running side by side. Some of the templates in creations may change from version to version and the folder location view is different in PSE8 and PSE10. On the Mac PSE8 comes with Bridge but this was dropped in subsequent versions, which now comes with Organizer.
Why not download the 30 day free trial; it’s the same as the full version. If you like it you can then purchase a boxed product from your favorite retailer or on line reseller. The upgrade version is usually a bit cheaper, but not always; so shop around. All you need do is enter the product code from the back of your DVD box into the trial and it becomes yours to keep. No further downloading or installation is necessary.

Going from Windows to Mac - Upgrade for Elements?

I have Elements 10 for Windows and am upgrading to an iMac. Can I get upgrade pricing even though I am installing on a new (different) machine?

Yes, you can purchase an upgrade for a different OS than the version you are upgrading from.

Plus Upgrade for Elements 6

A photography club member told us that we can get approximately 100 additional photoshop tools if we upgrade to Photoshop Element's Plus (or "+" perhaps). He indicated this upgrade cost something like $12.95 and thought it was available beginning with Element 6.0 and newer versions. Is this information correct? If so, where can I find this upgrade?

There's a little confusion here. The "Plus Upgrade" is for photoshop.com and just gets you more storage space there. Your friend was talking about buying this:
http://simplephotoshop.com/elementsplus/
which has nothing to do with Adobe. It's a third-party product that you buy directly from the developer.

Upgrade for Element 11

I have a genuine copy of Element 11 and I would like upgrade it to Element 12. How should I do?

There is upgrade pricing from adobe, but generally you can get a much better price on the regular non-upgrade version from big box stores and online retailers if you shop around.

If the Adobe Support Advisor was unable to locate the error then please manually review your installation logs. You can find details on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X".
I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but get the same error message.

Which version of OS X do you have? It's not clear from your post whether "installed an upgrade" means you just installed PSE 13 as an upgrade or you installed an update to PSE 13, like ACR 9 or 13.1. Please clarify.

Yes there is a Premiere Elements 12 Mac.
Premiere Elements versions are standalone programs. So you would be purchasing a new program with its serial number.
Upgrade typically goes to a price break if you have a prior version of Premiere Elements and you purchase from Adobe Sales direct.
Years ago, a user could purchase at a local retailer and get "rebate from Adobe" based on having an earlier version. I have not seen that anymore (for years).
Remember Premiere Elements 10 Windows projects do not work in Premiere Elements Mac (any version) and the other way around also.
Also Premiere Elements Mac does not have all the attributes that Premiere Elements Windows has. One example, if you work with green screen, know that Premiere Elements Mac does not have the Green Screen Key, Blue Screen Key, or Chroma Key Effects.
Please let us know if we have targeted your question.
Thank you.

How do I get upgrade pricing for Elements 13 if I own Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0?

There have been several recent threads where the user is trying to install Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2 on Windows 7 64 bit and has been running into MPEG2 Activation message. When the user follows the message to get the MPEG2 Activation, the end message says that the MPEG2 Activation is no longer supported by Adobe and your version. Is that the situation that you are in?
The MPEG2 Activation is one of those first time use/one time only activations that should go on behind the scenes when you have an active Internet connection. Is that the message that you are getting, and do you have a working Internet connection?
The following has worked for a few
1. If the program is installed in Control Panel/Programs, then uninstall it the usual way.
2. Do a free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner) to get rid of leftovers from incomplete uninstalls/reinstalls
CCleaner - Download
3. Install Premiere Elements 3.0 with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled
4. Once Premiere Elements 3.0 is installed, then install the 3.0.2 Update with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0.2 update
Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Compare with on-line stores. The full version is often cheaper than Adobe's upgrade price.
See this example from Amazon, but check pricing in your own region.

I bought download Adobe Premier elements last year. It is on my old computer which is not powerful enough. I have a new computer that is, I bought and upgrade for $69 but have got no where after several hours. what do I do?

What are you trying to do? What actions are you taking? What happens when you try?

I downloaded the new upgrade for Premier Elements 13 the other day, and now my program will hardly operate and will not do basic functions. What can I do?

I went to the Premiere Elements 13 tryout page at the Adobe web site and downloaded the tryout. I used the Firefox browser (latest version).
These are the details according to what was presented to me today
1. In choice of download, I selected Multiple LanguagesIWindows 64 bitI 1.67 GB. I do not have a Windows 7 or 8 32 bit computer.
In your case, you would expect that you used used Multiple LanguagesIWindows 1.50 GB (which would have been the 32 bit version
in agreement with your Windows 7 or 8 32 bit computer.
2. When I pressed the Download button, there appeared
Akamai Download Manager
Browse For Folder dialog - (where I designated Desktop as my save location for the saved file/folders from the download)
3. The first file to download was the .7z which is named Premiereelements 13_LS26_win64.7z (in my case, in yours it should be ...._win32.7x)
File 1 of 2.
The second file to download was the .exe which is named PremiereElements 13_LS26_win64.exe (in my case, in yours it should be..._win32.exe)
4. When "3" is finished, automatically the Install Now comes up with a dialog regarding the .exe with an Open button. Click on the Open button.
5. Next there is a Folder Location dialog which I had set
C:\Uses\Owner\Desktop\Adobe Premiere Elements 13
I clicked next in this Folder Location dialog.
6. Next there was an Adobe Premiee Elements 13 dialog "Preparing Files" with mention of "Extracting Files".
When the extraction process was complete, there was the automatic appearance of the Files Are Ready with a check mark next to
"Launch Adobe Premiere Elements 13. There I clicked the Finished button.
7. Next up was the Adobe Installer dialog and the "Initializing Installer" message.
8. Next came the Welcome dialog with choices of Install or Try. I selected Try.
If you have a purchased serial number already, I assume that you can click install and use your purchased serial number.
9. Next came the sign In Required dialog where I click the Sign In button.
10. Next the Adobe Software License Agreement to which I clicked Accept.
11. Next the Options dialog -
Adobe Premiere Elements 13 4.1 GB
Language English (North America)
Location C:\Program Files\Adobe
to all of 11 I clicked Install.
and said Yes to User Account Control pop up.
12. Automatic Install from there on.
When I looked at my desktop I found saved there
a. the .exe file
b. the .7x file
c. an Adobe Premiere Elements 13 Folder
any of which I believe I could have installed from as I have described to you previously.
If you cannot get the above to work, then you can try going through the process of getting the Adobe Premiere Elements 13 tryout
from
Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
There you will end up with the .exe and .7z downloads. After you download and save these two to your desktop, then you begin the
process by double clicking the exe and following the on screen instructions.
Please review the above and determine how much of it you have been through before and the choices that you have made along the way.

CPU and Motherboard upgrade for Premiere Elements 11

Hi all. Been perusing the Premiere Elements and Pro forums but still have a few questions.
I’m upgrading Premiere Elements from PrE9 to PrE11 and am upgrading some of my desktop’s hardware at the same time. I could use some advice about choosing a CPU, graphics card, and motherboard. The goal of this upgrade is to considerably speedup transcoding without breaking the bank. The budget’s a bit flexible but I’d like to keep it at or under $500 for the motherboard/CPU combo.
The computer will be used for editing and transcoding AVCHD videos. The videos are shot in either 1080i or 1080p using a Panasonic HDC-TM700.
I’m processing about 2-3 hours of video per week and my current system takes a long time to transcode. For example, it takes well over 3 hours to convert 1 hour of AVCHD video to wmv. An Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 with 3 GB of RAM was fine for the occasional video, but it’s too slow for what’s currently needing to be processed.
New CPU:
At this point I’m looking at the following processors:
i5 3570K
Ivy Bridge
No hyper threading
i7 2600K
Sandy Bridge
hyper threading
i7 3770K
Ivy Bridge
hyper threading
Questions:
) Does PrE11 make use of hyper threading?
) If PrE11 doesn’t use hyper threading is there much of anything to be gained by getting the i7? The i5 is about $90- $100 cheaper than the i7 CPUs and seems pretty quick.
New Motherboard:
I’ve had good luck overclocking Asus motherboards, so I’m leaning towards getting another one, but am open to alternatives.
The choice of board will depend mainly on Intel’s northbridge chip:
Ivy Bridge – Z77 chip
Sandy Bridge – Z68 chip
Question:
) Are there any other northbridge chip/CPU combos I should be looking at?
Current Graphics Card:
nVidia Geforce 8400 GS 512 MB DDR2
Drivers are up to date and downloaded from nVidia.
Question:
) Since PrE11 doesn’t use the graphics card’s GPU, will it be okay to continue using this card for the new build? I’m not a gamer and this card works just fine for the current build.
Additional hardware/software details:
PSU: Seasonic X660
HDD: Four 1TB 7200 rpm drives
Memory: 16 GB DDR3 RAM
OS: Win7 64 bit or Win8 64 bit (haven’t decided yet whether to go with Win 7 or 8)
Thanks in advance for your comments and help.

I have been going through the same process. Yes PE does support multiple threads and definatley go with the ivybridge i7 cpu. Asus is also the board I'm going with. They have made OCing much easier but be careful of high temps that leads to early failure of the cpu . Most of them let you have a maximum of 32 gig of ram and with memory so cheap check out upgrading to a higher grade memory. This can be overclocked as well. One of the ivy bridge cpus has 6 cores but cost $500 plus and requires a more expensive MB as well. too expensive for me though. I believe the built in graphics processor in the i7 k series the HD4000 is enough for PE. For about $650 I got an i7 at Microcenter for $229 and I think they just lowered the price to $200 an Asus MB at Newegg for $140 and 16gig ram for $70 also check out SSD drives in the 128 gig range are about $100 which you could use for you C: drive maybe take it up to 256 gig for more. They are getting pretty cheap
Good luck with your build.

Upgrade to Elements 11 and Premiere 11 for Windows

I purchased an upgrade to Elements 11 and Premiere 11 for Windows a couple of days ago. When I tried to install, I received the following error message:
"The installation process has encountered an error while installing Shared Technologies. Please restart your system and try again."
There was an invitation to Troubleshoot using a button that downloaded Adobe Support Advisor. No joy, it didn't find any issues.
I restarted and tried to install again. Same error message.

Hi BigJake68,
