Photoshop Elements 2.0 won't work on newer Mac OSX

Report · Dec 16, 2011

I use a MacBookPro and when I finally upgraded my OSX system to 10.6.8, my Photoshop Elements 2.0 no longer functions. There is no error message. The program closes and this message appears...

"An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a program error. Photoshop will now exit."

Is there any patch or upgrade that I can download to make this program work on the newer OS? I don't feel I should have to pay for a whole new software program when I've already purchased the license for Photoshop Elements 2.0.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Joe,

The system requirements for 2.0 are at http://hiddenelements.com/elements2_requirements.html

I am not sure if those are the official reqs but that is what I was able to dig up. Photoshop Elements 2 is a very old version, the current one being 10.0. You could try your luck by posting your query on http://feedback.photoshop.com. The experts on that forum should be able to guide you.
