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 windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

    I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

    It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
    When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

  • 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?

    I would go to the Adobe web site and post that query and also check the FAQ's on this page:

  • 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.

    bought photoshop elements 11 last year for windows and using it in my desktop. The desktop is crashed now and not usable. So I bought iMac now. Is it possible to trade over or change the licence into iMac version for a small fee. If not , can I partition the hard drive of iMac and install windows and also photoshop elements? which is the best alternative ? why?

    A Photoshop Elements license is good for both Mac and Windows so it should be just a matter of downloading the Mac version and using your current serial number to activate it.

    I would wait for Mountain Lion to be released. According to Apple, Mountain Lion will be released by end of July 2012.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit) is slow. Which start-up services should run?

    I recently had to use system restore and make a few changes to get my system running again.  Ooops. I now have a very slow computer whereas it was working fine before.  I haven't recently installed any new software or hardware and suspect that some essential start-up services may have been disabled, stopped or set to manual while some other unused services may have been set to start, automatic or automatic (delayed).
    Can someone please direct me to another thread (if available) or list which start-up services should be in which state?
    Thank you!
    System details:
     ~ HP IQ818A 
     ~ Windows Vista Home Premium
      ~ Service Pack 1 
     ~ 4GB RAM 
     ~ 64-bit 
     ~ avast! Anti-virus is active 

    Sydney,
    I don't have an IQ818 at the moment, all I have is an IQ506T - from last fall.  I had just done a recovery of it.
    Note:  1) I did choose to NOT perform automatic updates, 2) I haven't yet configured Norton, and 3) I haven't turned off TouchSmart from running in the background.
    This isn't exactly your system, but it would be somewhat close.  Your safest bet would be to recover and start over, but here goes with the services listings.  Please note its comma delimited - you can look at it better with something like Excel, Works or Open Office.
    Good luck on this.

  • HP Compaq d530 SFF not recognizing DIMMs. Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit - BIOS version 02.44

    Hello HP community!
    I recently received a HP Compaq d530 SFF, from the company, where I had my work experience.
    I gladly took their offer and took the PC home, all was going well until I bought myself some new DIMMs, from ebuyer.com.
    I new for a fact, the computer needs DDR 333MHz, PC2700 and it had to be in DIMM format, so I went and bought 3x1GB modules. A few days later they arrived and I inserted them into the computer, making sure that two DIMMs were in the blue slots, and the others (I wanted to keep a 256MB module in) in the black slots.
    I re-inserted the power cable and tried to boot the PC, it showed me a BIOS message, showing the amount of memory had changed, since the last boot. Once the configuration showed up, it only recognized the 256MB module. I then powered down the computer, to then remove the 256MB module, to see what would happen. I then rebooted the PC and it gave me an error tone (No picture). To which I then (rotatingly) tried each different DIMM, to see if one of them was defect. They all gave me the same error tone. Since then, I have been running Windows Vista Home Premium, with 1GB (4x256MB DIMM).
    Does anyone maybe have a suggestion, how to solve this problem?
    I have already updated the BIOS version to 02.44 (Latest I could find).
    Thanks in advance!
    Yours sincerely Simon Cahill
