Upgrade to Elements 10 did not enable my PerfectPhoto Suite 8 Plugins

I have been running Elements 10 with PerfectPhoto Suite 6 (started with the free version of PPS 4 that came with E10) for a couple of years in order to use the PPS6 plugins inside E10.
Last week I upgraded PPS6 tp PPS8.  Everything worked without exception and all of the new PPS8 plugins were available under the E10 File/Automation menu item.
Yesterday I installed E12.  During the installation it notified me that it had found the PPS8 plugins and would install/enable them.  After the installation finished [without error] I noticed that the E12 File/Automation menu item was grayed out.  However, under Help/About Plugins all of the PPS8 plugins were listed.
Here’s what I have tried so far:
(1) Installed Elements 12
    > no automation tools in 12 but they were still visible and working in the old (10) version
(2) Uninstalled Perfect Photo Suite 8
(3) Uninstalled Elements 10 (leaving E12)
(4) Re-installed Perfect Photo Suite 8
     > still no automation plugins in E12
Can anyone help me with this?

Sheesh.  You won't believe how much time I have wasted on this issue.  I exchanged probably 5 emails with customer service but was getting nowhere.  After waiting nearly 30 minutes for tech support I finally was able to talk to a tech.  The first thing he asked me was "Are you in Expert mode?"  There are three modes across the top of the screen -- Quick, Guided and Expert.  When first installed the editor opens in Quick mode.  The File/Automation Tools menu item is only enabled when you are in Expert mode.  Its just that easy.
Sheesh...What a waste of time...

    Instead, you could restart holding the Command and R keys, which will start up on the Recovery partition Lion creates, and then restore the operting system on the main partition.
    Before doing anything like erasing the startup drivek maie sure you have an external drive with a backup copy incase things go badly.

  • Elements 10 did not install properly but blocked my computer - need help, please!

    I've purchased an Elements 10 software, the requirements are met with my computer (My computer has 4G RAM), yet, after I had installed it and clicked on the icon for the first time, it blocked my computer (it became VERY slow for everything, like half an hour to turn it off...), and the program did not work at all, just the initial page loaded. I uninstalled it now, and my computer works OK again. What do you think I could do to resolve the issue? Is the serial number registration still valid now? I would really appreciate if someone could help.

    Hi,
    The serial number should work for installation.
    Please create a new user account with administrative privileges and reinstall the application into that account. We will then be able to know if there is anything on your system that could be causing a conflict.
    Request you to also provide the following information:
    1. Processor Type
    2. Free Hard Disk space.
    3. Video card make and model. (if you have one installed).
    This document has information on optimizing performance for your elements product : Optimize Performance. I suggest you review the same.

  • Upgrade to 10.1 did not update nppdf32.dll file version

    We use a scanning tool to check for vulnerabilities.  After upgrading to 10.1 our scanning tool still picks up vulnerabilities, mostly associated with the nppdf32.dll.  When we look at the version of this file, it is still the adobe 9's version of the file.  Why would the uninstall of version 9, followed by the install of 10.1 not replace this file with the newest version?
    Thanks.

    Ok. Had to log in at work to get more info.
    Upgrade was to 10.1.0 (checked adobe "about).  Installs were successful.
    Scanned for vulnerabilities and nppdf32.dll comes up in the scan as being outdated for "Acrobat Reader v9.4 Memory Corruption Vulnerability - The Exploit-DB Ref : 15419"  "Adobe Reader and Acrobat Security Update (APSB11-03)"
    The version of nppdf32.dll that shows up on the machines is 10.0.0.396 located in the c:\pgm files\adobe\reader 10.0\reader\browser and c:\pgm files\adobe\reader 10.0\reader\air.
    And actually we upgrade from a version 9 of adobe, so anything left over from it would have been a v9.  Don't understand why it didn't lay down the 10.1 version of nppdf32.dll.
    Any ideas?

  • Update photoshop elements catalog did not preserve people tags

    I recently bought Lightroom, having been a long-standing user of Elements. I tried to update my Elements 11 catalog, but many of my pictures have People tags which failed to make it through into the Lightroom catalog. In other words, many of my pictures, when looking at them in Lightroom, don't have the tags for the names of the people in the pictures, even though this information was present in Elements 11.
    Is there something I can do to get the People information across from Elements 11 into Lightroom 4.3?
    Thanks
    Rob

    I see you have already tried the usual methods.
    One thing that puzzles me is the screenshot with the file 'thumbs.5.cache'.
    That file is the cache storing the thumbnails : it's an sqlite database just like the main catalog : catalog.pse11db.
    Normally, when you 'optimize' the catalog, that cache file is rebuilt, but sometimes the only way to replace it is to delete it, and wait for the Organizer to rebuild it (several hours in your case...)
    It would not hurt to do so in PSE10 before trying the conversion.
    The conversion in PSE11 also converts (or make a copy ?) of the cache file.
    In my tests, the conversions in PSE11 do work even if the cache file is missing, and even if there are missing files. So, trying to convert without the cache file and let the Organizer rebuild the thumbnails in PSE11 is possible.
    Edit:
    I see 99jon was on the same track.

  • Premiere Elements 11 did not unzip/install

    I download all 1.2GB of the file twice, and both times I came up with a "PremiereElements_11_LS15_win64.7z" file and nothing to unzip it with.  I finally used Winrar to unzip it but couldn't determine which file was needed to install the program.  I tried "Adobe Premiere Elements 11.msi" but it opened the UNinstaller.

    setup.exe is the installer. Although Premiere Elements is the video editing software. If it was Photoshop Elements 11 you were after you need to go to http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-10-11-downloads.html to download it.

    Possibly Firefox created a new profile with the update. If so, you should be able to find the old one.

  • Trying to upgrade from snow leopard to lion. Father already purchased Lion online a few months ago but did not use upgrade (did not know cmp was already running on lion). How can I use his upgrade on my computer without having to buy another Lion upgrade?

    Hi,
    Basically my computer is running on Snow Leopard. My father bought the Lion upgrade to install on his computer, however, it ended up being that his newly purchased lap top already came running with Lion -- thus, he never ended up using the Lion upgrade he purchased. Now, I would like to use the Lion upgrade he purchased but did not use to upgrade my computer to Snow Leopard. The information he gave me for this was the Web Order Number, Part Number, and Content Code for the Lion upgrade. How do I redeem/use his upgrade to update my computer to Lion without having to purchase another copy of the Lion software from the App store? Is that possible?
    Thank you so much!!!

    Unless he controls your machine (same household), you can't. At $30 USD, pop for your own copy.
