Which version of Photoshop Elements is

recommended?  I have read several negative reviews on 12.  Would I be better off getting 11 or 10?

Depends what you want to do with it. The following compares versions 8 through 12 so may help you decide:

Personally I've kept 11 installed as well as 12 because of a couple of features they took from 12 (check the FAQ to see what they took out).

  • Can anyone please tell me which version of Photoshop Elements will download easily and run with mac 10.5.8 Snow Leopard?

    I posted a question which was: Can anyone please tell me which version of Photoshop Elements will work with Mac 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.  Then this window popped up saying mark this discussion with as a question and this window.  I have no idea how this works. It already is a question and if I need to emphasize that, how does this window that looks like a Word editing window, help me do that?Downloading, Installing, Setting Up

    You asked the question in the title area instead of the area where the body of your posting is intended to be.  No fault of yours - they need to make the form clearer.
    Check the system requirements for the various versions of Photoshop Elements and see which suits your system.  Adobe only sells the most recent versions of their software, so if you need an older version you will need to find a vendor for it.

  • Which version of photoshop elements works with yosemite

    which version of photoshop elements works best with Yosemite, PSE 13?

    Actually versions pse 6 through pse 13 work on mac os x 10.10 Yosemite, but pse 12 and pse 13 might work better, since they are 64 bit applications and can use a lot more ram than pse 6 through pse 11, which are 32 bit applications and only use a limited amount of ram somewhere around 3 gbs of ram max.
    You might as well get pse 13, since it's the current version adobe sells.

  • Which version of Photoshop Elements is best for for my old Mac G4 iBook?

    Which version of Photoshop Elements would work on my trusty old Apple Mac iBook G4 14-inch laptop?
    The newest Mac version of this application, Photoshop Elements 6, requires 64 MB of VRAM but my G4 only has 32 MB. (regarding other system requirements, my G4 has 768 MB of memory and a 1.2 Ghz processor, and runs Mac OS 10.4.11.)
    My plan is to go to Ebay and buy some older version of Photoshop Elements but I wanted some direction as to which older version would be best.
    Thanks.

    I have the same issue. My girlfriend bought Photoshop Elements 6, but her iBook G4, which is maxed out on conventional RAM, only has 32MB of video. She bought PE 6 as the Apple Store guy told her it would work on a iBook G4. He clearly did not realizing there were some  iBook G4's made with 32MB and some with 64MB of video RAM. But before we break the shrink wrap on the box, which would make it unreturnable, it would be nice to know if anyone has gotten PE 6 to run on a  iBook G4 with only 32MB of RAM. I'm more concerned with whether it works, than whether it is optimal. So, does anyone know if PE 6 will run on a iBook G4 with 32MB of video RAM?

  • Which version of PhotoShop Elements should I buy for Windows Vista Home Premium and from what source?

    First time buying PhotoShop.  I need it for a project I'm involved with at my school, but I can't download Creative Cloud or PhotoShop Elements 13 because Vista is not supported by Adobe.  However, I find it easier to find a version more fit for my computer rather than upgrade it (I'll just be brief, it's not convenient AT THIS TIME for me to attempt to upgrade my PC, even if many believe it'd be better for me).
    I was just planning on looking on Amazon for PhotoShop Elements PC boxes available and going with whatever version 11 or below that was at a good price.  Is this a good way to go or is there something special about purchasing CD's to download I need to be aware of?  Is buying from a source like Amazon rather than straight from Adobe putting me at risk for a phony version of PhotoShop Elements (though I was looking to buy a "new" box to avoid this if I can find some)?
    I'm having trouble finding WHERE Adobe sells its products from its own website rather than Creative Cloud right now.  A link would very much be appreciated if such a place exists.  Thank you.

    You can download a free trial version for PSE 10, 11 or 12 from this link:
    <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
    You can use this trial version for 30 days after which you will need to buy a boxed version from Amazon and use the serial number from the box to activate your trial version.
    If, however, you complete your project in the next 30 days then you don't need to buy anything.  Money saved for something else.
    Good luck.

  • I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4) and attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and need assistance

    I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4).  The installation to my hard drive went fine so I attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and am uncertain as to how to "add" the Elemnts to my existing filter choices.  Please advise.

    I'm sorry but it's very hard to understand what you mean. What filter menu? In which program? Do you mean you're trying to use PSE as an external editor with some other asset management program? Which one?

  • Installing new Retail version of Photoshop Elements, receive Invalid Serial Number

    Hi Everyone,
    I purchased a new Box retail version of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements 12 and before installing I am asked for the Serial Number. I enter it from the box but I get a message that says it is invalid serial number. How can that be if that is what is on the Box.
    Thank you,
    Danny

    Hi Everyone,
    I was able to solve it myself and in way should have provided more information. I was installing the software under the local Admin which in my Domain does not have internet access through our Proxy.
    Once I logged on with my Domain Admin and tried to install the software, it worked with out problems. I was not aware that the computer needed access to the Internet to verify the Serial Number.
    Thank you all for your time and assistance.
    Regards,

  • Lost Serialized Insert from PC Ultimate Software Suite-Cannot Install Full Version of Photoshop Elements 12

    I purchased a Dell Inspiron laptop which was bundled with PC Ultimate Software Suite, a collection of programs on one disc. It included Adobe Photoshop Elements 12, but I misplaced the insert that contained the serial key. I still have the sleeve that the CD was bundled with, as well as the CD itself. Is there anyway I can still download the full version of Photoshop Elements 12 without having to buy the program separately or buying Software Suite again?

    If Dell provided the bundle you should contact Dell to see about getting a replacement or the serial for the disk.

  • Do I have to buy a new version of Photoshop Elements (have Elements 10) just to upload RAW files from my new Olympus E-M10?

    I have Photoshop Elements 10.  It appears that I need a plugin to upload RAW files and the plugin necessary for my new Olympus E-M10 is not compatible with version 10.  Am I getting this right?  Do I have to buy a new version of Photoshop Elements just to upload RAW files from my new Olympus E-M10?  Otherwise, what I have is all that I need.

    Which operating system are you using?
    If your using mac os x 10.6 (snow leopard) or windows xp or vista, then the below solution will not work and you shouldn't try to install the dng converter 8.5
    You could use the free Adobe DNG Converter to convert your files to dng copies which should then open in pse 10.
    windows:

  • How do I activate purchased version of Photoshop Elements 12?

    I purchased a package through QVC that included Adobe Elements 12 with a Dell Inspiron Computer.  I installed the program and was able to import pictures, but when I try to use the editor it wants me to sign up for the 30 free trial version of PE12.  I entered the serial number when I installed.  Because the Dell has Microsoft 8, I also changed my email to Outlook.  I had a previous version of Photoshop Elements where I used a yahoo email.  Now I am confused about which email I associated with PE12.  Help!!!
