 Slow, slow, slow file handling, 2008-01-07
I have a pretty decent computer with a dual-core processor and 4G RAM and it takes 15 seconds each to load my 8 megapixel images. Version 5 had (and has no problems like this). I hate this thing and never use it. It may have great features, but I'm growing old waiting for it.

Adobe needs to work with Macrovision to fix major install flaw, 2008-01-07
I installed the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 on my machine the same day that I ordered the retail version here. It ran fine, and from what I saw was a decent upgrade to the version 2 I had used in the past.
The huge problem came when I tried to move from the trial version to retail. First I looked for a simple method to just insert the serial number to license the version I was running. No luck. Then I tried uninstalling the trial and installing the retail version. After the install I can not get the program to run. If I click on the icon a process starts but the program window does not open. If I leave the process running long enough it will say something about the software no longer being licensed and that I should talk to my System Administrator. Well, at home that would be me. It is one of my pet peeves that so many software makers trot out that tired message instead of something useful to actually fix the problem.
Adobe has chosen Macrovision FLEXnet to secure their software, which is fine. But somewhere the system has broken down or something is getting corrupted (on many people's systems, but not all) and the software is not getting categorized as a legitimate install by FLEXnet. It has decided that I have exceeded my time alotment for the license to run Elements 6.
I have tried many fixes since the first install. Several from the Adobe site that pertain to FLEXnet and some that pertain to Windows Vista. I have also spent a large amount of time searching the Internet and trying fixes that others list. All to no avail.
My opinion is that it is time for Adobe and Macrovision to work together to publish a patch that will fix the license issue.
Until that happens I would recommend avoiding Elements 6.
EDIT: There has finally been a breakthrough where an Adobe support person actually told a user about the fix for this. That user posted on the Adobe forums. Sadly, the fix was actually avialable SINCE OCTOBER.

"Go to Adobe.com click on downloads --> Updates
Select Acrobat - Windows
Then click on - Adobe Acrobat 8 licensing service update (Windows Vista only) 486KB 10/1/2007
Download that and run the InstAS file, it will say something about anchoring and sit there for 3 to 4 minutes, then it will close. Re-run Elements 6.0 and it should ask for your serial # and you should be good to go."
I just followed his instructions (adding that I had to run InstAS as an Administrator) and it works!

Element 6, 2008-01-07
This is the next best thing after Adobe Photo Deluxe, Business Edition went off the support list. Good price for what you get in a photo editing software. My favorite tool is cloning to replace unwanted items with matching photo items, and color changer. I had to look up HOWTO on the cloning since it is not named that anymore. This product has a ton of tools and fun options which is all I need as a hobbiest without paying a lot of money for things I will never use.
