Why can I not open 'Elements Organiser'?

I keep getting the error message ' DirectX/DirectPlayer  could not be initialised.  Please be sure that it is installed on your system'.  I have tried relaoding DirectX and get the message that my system has already got the latest version.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled PS12 and it is no better.  I am operating Windows 8.1 (64 bit)

Hi,
Try  enabling DirectPlay under legacy features in 8.1. from the Windows Control panel
Control panel >> Programs >> Programs and Features
Click on: Turn windows features on or off.
Thanks,
Anwesha

  • Why can I not open PDF-files in InDesign CS4?

    Hi,
    Well then, as I wrote in the headline... Why can I not open PDF-files?
    I get a notification that says that either the file is already open (which it's not) or it is missing a plug-in thingy for this kind of file.
    So, how do I know which plug-in thing I should chose from Adobe which will solve my problem?
    Could it be enough just to update the program? I tried with 6.0.6. upgrade but it wouldn't even open up. I'm not so good at this type of computerproblems (choosing upgrades, plug-in etc.). The program is not upgraded for a long time, unless it do it automatically, but I think we've chosen it not to....
    Please help!

  • Why can I not open some attached emailed pdf files?

    PLEASE HELP ME! I HAVE TO OPEN THESE FILES MY BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT! why can I not open some attached pdf files and others are ok?

    PDF files are extremely reliable. You may have a software issue. I have the problem on 2 identical systems with the exact same specs. The problem occurs at the same exact interval. It may be a windows update. We have had to re-install software form the DVD in each instance. This fixes it for awhile and then it recoccurs. Adobe acts as if they have never heard of the problem...imagine that. I'm the only one with th problem.
    This is happens with CS6 volume lic product.
    If you dont own Adobe product it will be even more difficult to find and answer as the reader is used my so many people.
    We know we have the problem again when we double click opn a PDF and nothing happens. SOme have reported that reloading does not fix the problem.
    Wish I could help you. I am looking for answers to this issue right now and phone support is a 30 minute wait.
    Very frustrating.

    Vanessa,
    You need to have Application manager installed.

    Hey Uptogetdown,
    Check out the following article:

    It is for troubleshooting issues with the Messages application on iOS devices, so I'd go through the steps listed and see if that resolves the issue.

    Why can I not open files saved on a server?

    I think I figured it out.  I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine.  Whoop Whoop.  Thanks for your help.

  • Why can I not open a stated InDesign CS8.1 document when mine says it is InDesign CC version 9.1? I have creative cloud.

    Why can I not open a stated InDesign CS8.1 document when mine says it is InDesign CC version 9.1? I have creative cloud.

    The version error messages are really screwed up and out of sync with the new naming (CC) system. CS8.1 would be CC2014 version 10.1

  • Why can i not open my documents?

    why can't I open any of my documents?

    You will have to check to see if opening and saving in a .doc or .docx format is permitted in AppleWorks.  Since AppleWorks is legacy software it probably is not supported.
