3.0 out of 5 stars Some shortcomings in PSE 2018
Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2018

Use of the Editor is great for photo manipulation. On the negative side, the Organizer, never that good, has become worse. Previously the thumbnails displayed as clearly defined units with file names listed below each. Currently, the thumbnails display as a huge collage, with no individual separation and no information listed. This severely impacts the usefulness of the Organizer for my purposes. Also, the "Help" system that Adobe provides actually promotes little in the way of assistance and much frustration in it's use. I have found that it is faster, easier, and more specific to just do a Google search to get answers or directions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy install, just followed instructions
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2018

At this point comments are only regarding the install, which went without a hitch.

As mentioned in other reviews, the Produce Code is NOT the Serial Number. You need a serial number for each product to install. That process is clearly described and worked well for me. You must have EITHER an educational email (.edu) or upload proof dated within last 6 months of academic status as faculty or student.

Inside the box (easy to miss if you don't look for it) is a 5" x 5" yellow card that has the product code and instructions for getting a serial number. It also has all the links that Amazon won't let me post in a review.

To install the software you need:

1. Program (either the disk or download).
The sheet has instructions on where you can download (ADOBE DOMAIN + go/elements-esd) if you don't have a DVD drive. I ordered the disks and installed using external drive to laptop on Windows 10.

2. Adobe ID.
This can be either an institutional/academic email (.edu domain) or non-academic email. I have an Adobe ID from 10+ years ago that is not an .edu domain and everything went fine. I also have an .edu email and that was entered during the validation process (No need to create a separate user ID to successfully install.) However, at some point you're going to either need to enter an email with an educational domain (.edu) or upload qualifying documentation.

3. Product Code
This is listed multiple locations: on the disks and yellow card (or presumably in an email or Amazon record etc if you go with the electronic-delivery route.
Go to the website listed on the yellow card to get the serial number that you need during the install. It was emailed to my EDU account.

4. On-line connection.
You have to log-in with your Adobe ID at some point. There is an option to install as a trial, but I didn't want to mess around with validating later. You want to have the serial number before you begin the install.

5. Serial Number.
Go to the validation website (ADOBE DOMAIN + go/edu-validate) listed on the yellow card and enter product code, your age, institutional info, and academic email. I was sent a single email with 4 serial numbers: one each "regular" codes for Ps Elements and Pr Elements, one each for MLP (multiuser license). I used the regular codes and had a flawless install. Note that each program has a different serial number. I accidentally entered the code for the other program and had an install fail, otherwise the install went without a hitch.

6. Install
Was easy for me. Windows 10 with 4/2018 update, disks on external DVD burner.

I will update this review after I have more time to use the programs. I've periodically upgraded since CS2 and missed the chance to get lifetime licenses. Since I primarily used Photoshop and Premiere, and even then for relatively simple projects, I'm going to see if this will meet basic needs that don't need advanced features.

1.0 out of 5 stars Adobe support crashed my computer! Now won’t fix!
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2019
Verified Purchase
Beware! I purchased this software and have never been able to use it. I have contacted Adobe several times for support, but they have never been able to get it to work. I contacted tech support and they asked if they could have remote access to my computer, so that they could install it themselves. HUGE MISTAKE! I assumed that this tech guy working with Adobe would know what he was doing....WRONG! He went in my computer created an admin user ID and restarted my computer with some secure firmware crap and he COMPLETELY LOCKED UP MY COMPUTER!!! Now, not only can I not use the software I paid for,...I can’t even use my computer. He had no idea how to fix it. I asked to speak to a supervisor and ever since then I have gotten the run around. They keep making phone call appointments with me, but never actually call. I try to contact them on the customer service chat and e-mails , but they keep giving me the run around. I had to make an appointment with the Apple store to try to salvage my computer. I never expected Adobe would treat their customers like this! I will never buy anothe product from Adobe. Buyer beware!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Great Program Terrible Customer Support
Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2018

I am very disaapointed with Adobe. I was a professional photogtapher and restorationalist. The program itself is of great quality but the website, technical and customer support procedures, personnel, chat room and phone contacts are frustrating, innefficient and unresponcive. I bought the original program at a store and when I needed to reload the program I was unable to get help from Adobe. My experience was horrible. I got liitle and no help from them. I spent hours trying to figure out their out their webpage, waiting in the chat room and on the phone, eventually I gave up and bought a new program from Amazon. That program had prolems in downloadig and again Adobe was no help. I thus returned the program. To repeat the computer is great but their support has a great deal to be desired.

I got Student and Teacher Edition PC/MAC version. In the box, you will get product code to get validate. Instruction is clear and validation was easy/quick. If you have academic email, you don't need to upload anything. Validation was took only a minute. When you approved, Adobe send you 4 serial number for Photoshop/Premiere, PC/MAC to your academic email. HAPPY.
