Of course, it may depend on if you are trying to install and use Elements 6 in the 32 bit version or 64 bit version of Win 7. Since I do not use Elements, I do not know if Elements 6 is or is not compatible with Win 7 x86 with or without being run in Windows XP compatibility mode. I do know that I installed Photoshop CS4 in a Win 7 x64 machine without problems; the installation installed both the x86 and x64 vewrsions of Photoshop CS4.

Ted,
I don't understand why you can't install Elements 6 in Win 7. I have Elements 4 installed on a laptop running Win 7. If I want to use the program, I have to run it in compatibility mode but it is installed and it does work.

I have done what Adobe said to to. I got as far as step 2. When I tried to install CS4, again it did not like my serial number. Still no luck. I did not think that an upgrade would install over a demo program, but they said to do it, so I tried.
I have responded to Adobe again letting them know what they told me to do did not work. That I am fustrated and upset that this has taken over three weeks and I still can not install the software that I purchased.
Their other option was to purchase Photoshop elements 9 for $99.00, then purchase the CS5 upgrade for $599.00. I don't see me spending $700.00 when I can purchase Paint Shop Pro for $99.00 and do the same things with my photography that I was doing with photoshop.
I will let you know of any other updates.
