Why doesn't photoshop Elements 10 install on my mac?

I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, it has been installed on 2 different windows laptops just fine.
I am trying to install it onto my macbook pro (vs 10.6.8) and I keep getting the error message "Installation failed to inistialise. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem".
I downloaded the ASA but as soon as it opens, it crashes.
So i downloaded the free trial of Elements 10, which was downloading fine, but upon installation i had the same error message (as above)
Does anyone have any suggestions, or know what the issue could be?

First of all, remove any bits that got installed from the failed installation. Check library>application support>adobe as well as the applications folder (you have three library folders--this is the one at the top level of your hard drive, not system>library or your username>library). Then try creating a new admin user and running the install from there.

Why doesn't Photoshop Elements recognize my internet connection?

I've installed Elements. I had to register online because I can't sign in on my program's start up screen because photoshop says I'm not connected to the internet or that my clock is wrong. After registering online (outside the program) I told the program I'd sign in later just so I could get to the user interface. Once there, it still thinks I'm not connected to the internet, and as a result the "help" button just gives me a message that I need to be connected to the internet to use help.
But, I am connected - as I'm typing and submitting this question "online." So, any ideas what's going wrong?

Often means a problem with your anti-virus and/or firewall blocking access to Adobe servers. Some Firewall software also makes entries to your hosts file that have the same effect.
Temporarily disable your anti-virus and firewall and rename C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts to hosts.old to see if that lets the activation complete. Afterwards you can rename hosts back, and turn back on your firewall and anti-virus.
Also for activation start by right-clicking the PSE icon and selecting Run As Administrator in case there is a permissions problem.

Why doesn't Photoshop Elements 13 detect my camera or a card in a card reader?

I hooked my camera directly to my computer and tried to import my pictures. I kept getting the message no device detected. I bought a card reader because I read on Canon's forum that should work. Using the card reader, I still get the message that no device is detected.

Is that with it in the card reader?

Why Cant get my Organizer to open on Photoshop elements 12 on my mac OS 10.6.8

Why Cant get my Organizer to open on Photoshop elements 12 on my mac OS 10.6.8

Pse 12 isn't officially supported on mac os x 10.6.8, but your able to install it.
Mac os x doesn't have some of the updated/newer os features that the pse 12 organizer requires but the editor part seems to work fine.
Also, camera raw 8.3 is the last camera raw version that will work on os x 10.6.8 and newer versions of camera raw or the dng converter won't be compatible accoording to what adobe has said so far.
more info in this post:

If your os x 10.6.8/computer is able to upgrade to mavericks os x 10.9, then you'll be able to use the pse 12 organizer, but if you have any programs that require rosetta to run you won't
be able to use them any longer, because after snow leopard macs can't use rosetta

I just bought a new IMac. I have photoshop elements installed on my old IMac and would like to move it to the new one. How can i do this?

I just bought a new IMac. I have photoshop elements installed on my old IMac and would like to move it to the new one. How can i do this?

Unfortunately, adobe doesn't have photoshop elements 6 available for download, as far as i know, so your best bet is to either get an usb dvd drive or use an computer with a dvd drive and copy the contents of the pse 6 dvd to somethiing like
a flash drive and then copy the contents from that drive to your new computer.
Do you still have your older mac and it has a dvd drive?
You can share files between the two using airdrop or an ethernet cable.

My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download or re-install. " and then the button "Buy Now". When I hit the Buy Now button I am put in a field to buy Photoshop Elements 13, with no way to change to Elements 10. I do not want to go through the hassle of reinstalling etc. In fairness, it's been over a month since making the decision to buy. Still, I consider this a nightmare. Any ideas on how to buy the app I've got withou having to purchase a whole new one? Thanks.
If worse comes to worse, will I need to uninstall the trial if I buy a new version? Can I use part of it lime download assistant?

Adobe does not sell older versions of their software. If you wish to purchase an older version you will have to find and take your chances with a third party vendor.

Why won't Photoshop Elements 12 open?

After being away for 3 months, I attempted to open and use PSE 12 and it does not open. Today I uninstalled and reinstalled thinking that would help, but it doesn't. It appears as though it's going to open, but the little "streaming" just stops. Your assistance in resolving this problem is greatly appreciated.

I am not a technician so I can't go too deep in the analysis... I did all I could imagine to do, I would like that somebody from Adobe would take care of this issue finding solution to the problem.

>Hoping that you get a break through in your troubleshooting. Do not give up. I kept searching and searching for an answer to my Photoshop Elements 12 Full Editor not opening while the Elements Organizer 12 would. I have reams of data from October 2013 to April 2014 troubleshooting of the issue. Everything pointed to an activation issue but I could never target the place to fix until my break through came unexpectedly. And, as I found out, the SLStore Folder and SLCache Folder have "something" to do with activation according to the Adobe person who put forth what turned out to be the solution for me. Based on my encounter with this problem, I would say Windows No, Photoshop Elements activation Yes.

Your right. It won't make any sense to subscribe for a software that I don't own. I have CS5 on my Dell Laptop which has been giving me issues, so I re-installed the Operating System along with all my editing programs and nothing more. So I can toggle between the Mac and the PC to get the job done in the meantime. I will eventually get CS6 for the Mac.

If the code you are trying to enter has letters then you are not looking at a serial number. A serial number only contains numbers - 6 sets of 4 numbers.
Find your serial number quickly

Why does adobe photoshop elements 6.0 not show up for a download choice of putting my photos into my computer, I'm on windows7. I'm sure it did when I first got my computer. Could it be that I have lots of other photo software that may be interfering?

If you open the Organizer and go to Edit>Preferences>Camera or Card Reader, do you have Auto Launch Adobe Photo Downloader on Device Connect checked?
Try checking that if you don't.

Using Adobe Photoshop Elements installed on another volume

I am using Photoshop Elements 6 on a Mac computer running OS 10.9.
I am working on a video project that will not open in OS 10.9. My hard drive is partitioned to include an older Mac OS (OS 10.6) which I boot into when working on the project. This procedure works fine until I need to use Adobe Photoshop Elements to make changes to still photos within the project. The problem is that the Photoshop Elements application that exists within my main hard drive boot volume will not run within the OS 10.6 volume, even though it previously did when OS 10.6 was the current OS.
I get an error message that states that “Licensing for this product has stopped working.” and it says that I need to reinstall the product. For various reasons, I don’t wish to install Photoshop on two separate volumes of the same physical hard drive. There must be a way to make the same application work with both volumes, just as most other applications do. Is there a way to do this?

Here are some excerpts from this web page:
http://ask.metafilter.com/194687/Unix-vs-Apple-OS
Apple's operating system, which is to say Mac OS X, is actually a specific implementation of UNIX. "UNIX" is a trademark owned by The Open Group, who controls who gets to apply it to their products, based on whether they meet certain requirements (the Single UNIX Specification). Apple got Mac OS X certified a few years ago, meaning that it is actually a UNIX implementation.
Linux, interestingly, isn't a UNIX because it's never been certified by The Open Group and differs in some technical ways from the Single Unix Specification. But from a purely functional standpoint, using a Linux distro probably feels more like a traditional UNIX environment than Mac OS X, mostly because Linux uses XWindows/Xorg in its GUI layer in common with traditional UNIX environments, while Mac OS X has a proprietary GUI (Aqua).

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

As long as your license supports both platforms you should only have to download the Mac version and install/activate using your serial number. If you need help finding a link to download the file, please indicate the PSE version you need.

clear your adobe.com cookies or
try a different browser or
download from prodesigntools.com if you follow all 7 steps: http://prodesigntools.com/tag/ddl
and activate with your serial.
if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps. the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy
