Why is Photoshop Elements 10 trial not installing?

I went to the older software page, installed File 1 (Photoshop Elements 10), but I can't install File 2. An error message shows up, something along the lines of "all files must be stored in the same folder", etc. I am not a computer genius. I am getting very tired of Adobe's complicated procedures - I have spent well over 5 hours today struggling to find any shred of help on the site (my chat was never answered, either) and now that I finally find the installation files, I am let down once again.
All i am trying to do is transfer Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 from my old laptop to my new one. I don't understand why installing a trial and entering a serial number is so difficult.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

I downloaded them into the same folder, and once that was done, I did as you said and opened PhotoshopElements_10_LS15.exe. It asked for my serial number and everything, seemed as though it was installing, and asked to restart in order to complete the process. I restarted the computer, and...I don't see Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 anywhere. There is a folder on my desktop that goes by the name of Photoshop Elements 10, but it only contains data files and things that I can't use. It's not the actual software....
What should I do?

photoshop elements 11 not installing in windows 7 x32
downloads ok then on install it gets to almost the end and a message appears can not continue and it uninstalls itself.

Hello, thank you for your prompt reply. I have downloaded v12 of Photoshop Elements and installed to my Win 7 x64 machine and its working like a charm. Perhaps v11 did not like the spec of my x32 machine.
Thank you again from a satisfied customer.
Regards William.

Can you list your computer hardware specs.? Special attention needs to be paid to the I/O (Input & Output), or the HDD's (Hard Disk Drives), their size, speed, amount of free-space, etc.Are you attempting to do the installation to the default location, or to a custom location? Good luck, and let us know a bit more please.

Why is Photoshop Elements 8 not saving a psd file as a pdf now that I purchased Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

Why is Adobe Elements 8 not saving a psd file as a pdf after I started using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro instead of my CS3 Pro? Both Adobe software is up to date and before I switched to Acrobat XI Pro, it worked fine. Help please...

You aren't talking to Adobe here. But still...Is it by any chance asking for a QUALIFYING product? If so, you purchased an UPGRADE and now need to give the serial number of the OLDER product (Acrobat 9 or X) which you must own to be able to use the upgrade. Simples.

Why does Photoshop elements 9 not start once I downloaded Wacom drivers?

I use Photoshop Elements 9, it is fully updated.
I recently switched from a bamboo tablet to an intuos. Previously, my bamboo worked perfectly. Elements could detect pen pressure and worked fine. Now, elements (the editor, not the organizer) has stopped booting.
However, I recently got an intuos and once I downloaded the drivers, Photoshop would stop booting. For example:
I try to open up a photoshop file, photoshop would stop responding.
I open up the welcome screen and click on edit, the edit button shows that loading sign for awhile before returning back to the normal edit button. After that, nothing happens and the editor doesn't open.
I try to open the editor directly, it stops responding.
There were however less than ideal ways I could force elements to boot. I could open up Wacom Tablet Properties, and delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements preference over there. When I do that, photoshop boots instantly even if it was in the middle of not responding. Even when I try to boot with the welcome screen and the edit button just fades, as soon as I delete the preference, elements boots. Even if I was waiting for fifteen or twenty minutes before deleting the preference, elements would boot. Another way I can get photoshop to open is using the wacom tablet preference file utility to delete the preference.
However, when this happens, pen pressure doesn't work and the cursor is really laggy. The disc keeps appearing over the cursor.
Other stuff I've tried:
Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers. I've tried using the disc the tablet came with. I've also tried the installing the driver from the website.
I'm not sure about resetting the photoshop elements preferences. I've tried clicking ctrl+shift+alt and clicking to open photoshop but it just opens up the properties window. (But isn't what I did with wacom tablet preference utilities achieving the same thing?)
I greatly appreciate any advice you could give me! Like if this is even the proper place to ask?

But it is also very important to delete any existing preferences after a major OS X upgrade. For PSE 6 that would be:
com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings
They're in your username>library>preferences. Here's how to find it in 10.9:

Photoshop Elements 13 not Installing on Windows 8.1 x64

I am trying to install Adobe Photoshop 13 with an Installer package developed using Adobe Creative Cloud. It fails with Windows Installer error 1603. I'm installing this package on a locked down machine, using an Administrative account and the drive is not encrypted. I've noticed during troubleshooting that after the installation failure, if I go to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe' directory, rename the 'OOBE' folder (this folder doesn't exist prior to installation start) and re-run the installer, the installation completes successfully. I've re-created the Creative Cloud package few times without any success. Any help will be appreciated.

Photoshop elements 9 not installing

I did not get a response yesterday so I'll try again. PSE9 will not complete installation, error message stating cannot complete due to "Shared Technologies". The installation starts to rollback.
What is the fix?
Thank you.

Check if there is any Adobe process like Bridge.exe etc running inside the windows Task Manager? If yes, then end those processes and then try to install again.
Also see the below link if that helps you out?

Photoshop Elements refusing to install

I bought PhotoShop Elements 9 a couple of years ago, and use it on the same computer all the time. However, I have been having a lot of trouble with my computer recently and have had to re-format it about six or seven times recently. Now, I find that Photoshop Elements will not install at all. It gets to the stage of installing the Shared Technologies and then stops, and uninstalls itself.

Welcome to the discussions, nirof. It should install just fine, but you may need to create a new account to use for the install. Try with your regular admin user account first, and if you have a problem create a new admin user, install, then delete the new account.

My Photoshop Elements does not start any more. It gives response "Photoshop elements cannot start or continue because of missing file(s). Please reinstall." How do I get the installing file again (I bought it via internet the first time december 2013?)

Did you download the Basic/Free version?
I also thought the Trial period was as long as you needed!?
What is your Warranty and Return Policy?
You get to use VueScan for as long as you want before you buy it, so we recommend you test it before you buy it to make sure it meets your needs.
All sales are final and there are no refunds.
Isn't this a bit harsh? Naah I actually prefer to solve problems, and if I offer refunds, people give up too easily. If I can't solve your problem after you send a few Problem Reports (see above), I'm happy to give a refund.

Photoshop elements trial version plugin not working with lightroom

Hello,
I just downloaded adobe photoshop element trial version.
The plug-in is not working with my already installed Lightroom.
Any idea what I need to do?
Thanks!

I can't edit in Elements either. May be trial version of Elements can not be linked to Lightroom. Any thoughts?

I just installed Photoshop elements 11. Install fine. When I clicked to open Organizer, I received a messaging indicating that it was out of date and coudl not be upgraded. How can I address/fix this?

Thank you for the replies. I'm afraid neither one helped.
kglad, I never get to any error code so your link can't help.
Jeff, I looked at your link and
a) again, I never make it to an error code
b) I'm definitely connected to the internet
c) I can access secure sites; I tried connecting with the firewall disabled and the same thing happened, so I don't believe it's a firewall issue.
d) I don't understand the checking host sites - this is far too complicated for a novice user. It should not be this difficult to get a software running. I don't want to mess with these kinds of settings.
e) I followed the steps for the global sign in root CA and my screen looks the same as the picture here.
I can't activate the software offline as there is no option to generate a response code when I click on having trouble connecting to the internet. All I get is a prompt to change my password.
If the problem were simply connectivity from my computer, then why does the box completely freeze? Can't cancel, can't click on the little X to close it, can't right click on the box to close it. I have to reboot every single time. I know others have had the same problem and I haven't found any answers that I could apply.
I don't understand for the life of me why Adobe does not have TELEPHONE customer support. I have spent 2 days on this, this is crazy.

Three things you can try:
1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
2. Perform an SMC reset:
