    What operating system are you using?

    What was your old operating system on the other computer?

    Unfortunately photoshop elements 4 won't run on mac os x after snow leopard because pse 4 requires a mac with a PowerPC processor or Rosetta and you new mac has a Intel processor and no Rosetta.

    So you would need a newer version of of photoshop elements like the current pse 15 that adobe sells.
