Please be more specific about the problems you are experiencing.

What are your computer specs. ?

Did the program install successfully?

When you say the program appears to open, do you mean the Home Screen with link buttons to the Editor and Organizer?

Do your receive any error messages?

Did you have an earlier version of Elements installed on the computer? If so, did you use the Organizer and, if so, how many media files were in the old catalog?

When you first attempted to launch the Organizer, did you notice a dialog asking whether you wanted to use/convert a pre-existing catalog?

What is happening in Task Manager when you say the organizer and Editors do not open/work?
