We Now Have Elements 12 !!! Oct 18, 2016 0:34:48 GMT

I found a decent deal on an unused/unopened edition of Elements 12; I mainly wanted it for the enhanced ability to clean up selections and the content aware thingie.

I installed it last night and had a look at it, but I have not as yet tried it out.

One thing I am for certain disappointed with is the weird layout compared to Elements 7, both in the organizer and the editor; E12 may have some features unavailable in E7, but E7 looks a hundred times more impressive and is a lot easier to understand; it is as if E12s format went back fifty years.

Now, my first E12 question: How many computers can I install this on at the same time ?

Thanks for reading.

Elements 7 ~~~ 64-bit Windows 7

On a poverty-level Kentucky budget, a 24-exposure roll of film would have two Christmases and a summer vacation on it and we might have to wait another six months before being able to afford developing the film.
I still have trouble remembering that it doesn't cost anything to take thousands of pictures; it just almost seems impossible to be true.

Hi BuckSkin,

Congrats on getting a good deal.

I believe you can only have it activated on 2 computers at any given time; it can sit on more than 2 computers, but can only be active on 2.

As for the layout, yes there was a change in Elements (cannot remember if it was at 10 or 11), so it might take some getting used to.

Thanks.

That was what I was hoping for.

I read somewhere that it was for a "single user" and was afraid that meant only one computer.

I messed with it a bit last night and when I got ready to close out my picture I like to have never found that tiny hidden little x
