Install issues with PSE8 for Mac...

I bought and downloaded from the Elements 8 for Mac yesterday - no problem with the download.  When I go to Setup/install the software, however, I get a "Installer alert" blank screen - no click or rectify (AFAIK).  I've seen other threads here, but I don't seem to have these questions (although I'm not the most tech savvy, I admit).  Here's my info:

OS Tiger 10.4.1 (not upgraded to Snow Leopard)

Intel processor

Any ideas on how to move beyond the alert "Installer"?

Thanks - Melissa

Try to create a new administrative user (system prefs > user accounts) and running the installation from there.

  • problem with PSE8 for Mac on MacBook

    I recently bought a MacBook.  In the past, I used version 6 on an ibook with screen resolution 1024 x 768. I projected my screen on an Epson projector easily.  PSE8 is fully displayed on the Macbook, unless I set the screen resolution to its largest definition (1280 x 800).  When I do that I can't get my projector to display the entire page of items. It cuts the right part.

    When I change the Macbook screen to 1024 x 768, I can't see the entire page of items on my laptop or on the projector.

    Anyone know what is happening?  Version 8 cannot be used on a screen resolution 1024 x 768?

    Thanks for your help.

    Any LCD screen should always be left to its native resolution (maximum), FWIW. They do not scale well as did the old monitors CRT.

  • CS4 while Adobe has issues with CS5 for Mac?

    If someone from Adobe is followed by this forum, it is possible for the customers who bought the first Pro CS5 to have access to a fully functional copy of Premiere Pro CS4 in the meantime for corrections to two serious bugs in the version of CS5 Mac?

    The problems of not being able to save project files and the aspect ratio wrong being chosen at random when you import a DV widescreen - discussed in the discussions on this forum - film make CS5 unusable on a Mac now.

    Thank you.

    This isn't a file size of small projects and I wonder how much memory you have in your system?  As the project gets larger, its looking more clips and each of those who take back a bit of memory.  If you said that you have 4 GB of memory only, I could ask to see if you could import a part of your project (maybe a smaller timeline) in a new project and see how is your overall functionality.  This memory based on the size of project is generally true for all NLE.

    Maybe you can share a little more about the system and the project.

    • System specs
    • size of the project file
    • number of items in film throughout the project
    • # timelines, PSD, etc.

  • PSE8 for Mac: convert to DNG in Bridge Photo Downloader fails

    Using PSE8 for Mac.  When I get RAW Bridge photos and specify "Convert to DNG" in the advanced options of the Photo Downloader, download the RAW files, but converted to the DNG format for each image.  I can convert successfully using the standalone DNG Converter, but I would use the option in the Photo Downloader that comes with the deck.  I am in contact with Adobe Support on it but not having not much of chance.  If anyone has had this problem or knows what to do?

    Also, I don't see RAW the Downloader in bridge or photos images.  They appear the blue squares with a graph of flower on them in the Downloader, as well as white squares in Bridge.  I can only see the pictures once I open the items.  Is this normal?

    Also, I don't see RAW the Downloader in bridge or photos images.

    It is the source of your problem. You must update the raw converter in bridge, which comes with a very old version (5.0). In bridge, go to help > updates and let it do its thing.

  • Problem installing Adobe Flash Player for Mac Air (Yosemite)

    I got a message saying that my Adobe Flash Player is out of date. This seemed strange because I had been to access the videos of the previous hour without any problems. I went ahead and opened the Mac version download of the Adobe site setup. Installation began, and after the entry of a password to Admin, the download has reached 25% almost immediately. Unfortunately, it's been blocked 25% since then. I tried to do it again, removing the download and the re - download the update without success. I've also temporarily disabled my AdBlock and AdBlock Plus. I tried to uninstall AFP so I could start again, but the box that is supposed to tell me what version of uninstaller for download has error message says I need to update AFP.

    How can I fix?

    Edit: I thought I was downloading an AFP for an earlier operating system (I'm under 10.10.2). I made sure to download the latest version of the AFP for Mac possible. The installation is now stuck at 30%. (Just to be clear, I downloaded the package without problem - the problem is with the installation of the program itself stopping at 30 %.))

    Edit 2: I figured out that uninstall the package that I needed (using this page: Uninstall Flash Player |) Mac OS) but after reinstallation AFP, he is still stuck at 25% of download.

    Edit 3: The message "failed to connect. Trying to reconnect"appeared, quickly followed by"the connection failed ". Guess I'll try again.

    I couldn't find an update for Mac OS x 10.4, but not 10.7?

    Languages are the specific serial number. You cannot change on the fly. If you have your serial number, you need to install it in English. anything beyond that is a hack as localization of the stripping app package files...

  • Cannot install CS6 master collection for mac pro book (end of 2011)

    Recently, I downloaded Adobe creative suite master collection for Mac CS6.

    However, I'm unable to install it. After you open the installer that does nothing, it does not further. I have tried to copy the contents of MasterCollection_CS6_LS16.dmg to another folder, and then open the install.app, still no progress.

    Will you please advice because I really need to install this.

    Hey Vikrant thanks for the reply.

    The situation is like this, I downloaded the image on my desktop pc (which is Windows) and then compress & split the image using a winrar. I then transferred the files to my mac pro book and extract the image here. Unfortunately, there was a bug in the software unarchiver that I used on mac to extract the image.

    This bug has been fixed in a release distributed by the dev today.

    Now I can install CS6 without any problem. Thanks for the replies once more.
