installed elements 14 on new pc using windows 10 and all the menu commands are grayed out.

I can't change the preferences.

I can't restore catalog etc etc.

I then installed on the same pc 12 elements, and that's OK--that is of the menu commands everything works as expected

This can happen if you are using the eLive currently.

If you are in the Organizer, try clicking on the Media tab and if you are in the Photoshop elements Editor, click the Quick tab and see if it helps.

Thank you

  • Plus all the menu items are dimmed in AE CC I cannot create a new project or start

    Hey all,.

    I'm working on a Mac mini with all specifications maximum (not the version of the server). I opened AE CC for the first time and I can't do anything except close or exit the application. All my menu items are grayed out.

    When I started it upward it tells me that I should update CUDA, so I did it and it is still not allow me to choose menu items. Help, please! O Yes, I'm running Mavericks!

    I'll be watching this thread today so let me know if you need to know more about me.

    DO NOT install Cuda, because there is not a single Mac Mini that has a compatible card NVIDIA CUDA. Installation of CUDA will be completely foul up your machine.

    Second, be careful the program names. You have opened the rendering engine of the effects after no After Effects. Looks like you're very new. Please, start here: basic workflow. If you do not take the time to go through basic training you'll be completely frustrated with AE and assume that it is working properly.

    Thanks for the help.

    I had installed the update of MS Windows Defender KB915597.  After doing a restore to the point of restoration, taken at the time of the update, I am now able to open Windows Explorer.

    Seems that something in this update does not work with my system.  I have had no other problems with Windows Defender updates in the past - it was the first.

  • Windows 7 updates. Important updates options are grayed out and unable to change

    I am running Home Premium Windows 7 and in Windows Updates settings, I chose "check updates but let me choose whether to download and install them". This worked well until about two months ago, when I stopped to alert me to fresh updates of messages. Now, I find the options in "Change settings" under "Major updates" are greyed out and I can't change them.

    Any advice would be appreciated. Would prefer to have the same option, I'd settle for automatic installation.

    Thanks in advance.

    You can reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But if there is malware present, she will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

    How to reset the Windows Update components

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

    Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system before the clean boot by running:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista/Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

    I suggest before you stop and install the updates, disconnect from the Internet, first.

  • All Windows updates and all the patches and individual installation on my program

    Can I remove all?
    I don't have this problem on my other pc just this laptop.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    It seems that no one is able to answer this question here. If you have 2 possibilities:

    -disable the update of windows to avoid an additional installation of new updates and etc...
    -go to "Add/Remove Applications" and uncheck the 'Show updates' (or something similar). This box should be at the bottom of this window

    Otherwise, you should check out other, more associated microsoft forums, or just google a bit around to find an answer.

  • Created a new catalog in Lightroom 3 and all my files/folders are "gone".

    Of course, I'm pretty new with Lightroom, but I am quite at a loss to explain what happened.  I wanted to create a new catalog to move files in.  I went to file > new catalog, and then "create a folder with the new catalog" dialog box, I typed in my new name and press "Save".  Boom.  Lightroom closed right.  When I opened upward, all my folders and catologs disappeared.  Nothing is displayed in the navigation section of the left side, other than securities, "Catalogs", "Files", "Collections", etc and they are empty.  In 'My Computer' all the files are still there with the DNG files in place, but LR will not show them to me.  Can someone please explain to me why I can access is no longer my catalogs?  I hope it is something simple that I just keep overlooking...

    If Lightroom shuts down accidentally (computer crash, Lightroom crash, power failure) a .lock file is usually left. There are good reasons why the database creates this locking file, which I won't get in, but basically impossible to open your file catalog again until the .lock file is deleted from the hard drive.

    Recommended... some people write metadata in files, others do not. It certainly isn't a necessary step. I think that the main advantage to do this, if you want to share photos with other users of Adobe products that can read the changes (LR, PS, bridge or PSE); or if you want to share other metadata (keywrods, legends, location, etc.) in the file with other people or other applications that can read these other metadata. There is therefore, no recommended way to go, there is only the way that fits your needs. The main tool to protect you against the loss of data is the Catalog backup, as there are a few things in the catalog that are never written in the metadata.

    If you want to use as your first photographic application, Lightroom I advice to look at some of the many videos on Lightroom that are available online. I would also advise against Scott Kelby and Matt Kloskowski, as (according to me), their opinion is often off of the brand or simply bad advice.
