Mgi Photosuite 4 Platinum Edition
Hi,I hope someone can help me with this, I've had enough of Windows 8 and Microsoft doesn't have any information.Photosuite 4 business edition worked fine on Win Professional XP and Win 7, I received a new HP Pavillion desktop with Win8/Office 10 loaded on. I installed Photosuite twice, both times upon opening, the screen is white/blank with only the file open toolbar visible. When I try to open a picture file, nothing happens (no activity at all).I can't afford to replace any more software and I need this application.
Any suggestions?Thanks alot!

If it isn't W8 compatible, you would have to upgrade to something that was. Sorry.Did any similar program come with your new computer? Did you look? The only thing I can think of is to locate the executable that runs, and see if it can be run in compatibility mode. I don't have Win8, but Win7 does a remarkable job with compatibility mode.(In Win 7) Right-click on the executable file, select 'Properties' then click on the 'Compatibility' tab. There you can select what version of Windows to run as.I have an application that would not run past Windows 98, and the compatibility mode in XP didn't work for it. But it works great under Win 7, so I'm hoping that may work for you with PhotoSuite.Unfortunately, if that does not work, you're back to upgrading.
After MONTHS of trying to get support from anyone, in passing to fix myWindows Movie Maker issues, I asked a Microsoft tech if HE could get MGIPhotosuite 4 running with Windows 8. I have tried with no avail fromevery source known! Albeit an old program, it rocks! If you know how towork it, you can do SO much with it MUCH faster! (I strongly recommendthe book MGI Photosuite 4 For Dummies). BTW, MGI 4 Platinum versioncan animated GIFs.
MGI PS5 was totally revamped, it's a much differentprogram. However, if you are totally stuck with IT not working in Win8,you might want to try something similar to the steps he took, or contactMicrosoft for assistance. Hopefully you will get a smart tech who WILLwork with 3rd party software. Most of them refuse to help you.

Schmoozinghelps LOL! This Microsoft tech was able to fix it in less than 15 minutes. I'vetested it for the version I own listed below and OMG, it's finally WORKING!!!!Here's the instructions below. The super nice Microsoft tech typed them outfor me to share with others who are also having trouble. I hope it w orks foryou too. I am sorry, but I am not a computer tech so I can only give you theinstructions WE did that got it to work on my Sony Vaio. I can not guaranteeit will work for you, or that it will do any damage to your computer etc.

At the left, click the disk (usually D: drive)5. In the list there will be 3 different setup files, you want the one that has the type set to application6. Right click and select properties7. Set to windows XP service pack 3 compatibility and check the 'run as administrator' box8. After the installation is complete, right click your desktop and select 'open file location'9. Right click the file that shows up and right click it and go to properties10. Set to windows XP service pack 3 compatibility and check the 'run as administrator' boxenjoy!PSI saw that comment from that old geezer on my old thread.
That thread somehowgot locked so I can't reply to give help to others who also are looking for a fix. Youknow, that old dude probably has NO clue what this older program does so hiscomment totally made me laugh.
Not very nice! I know how to work other graphicprograms, and IMHO, it's a shame Roxio/Corel hasn't upgraded this very powerfulprogram!
Everyone else who loves it knows EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Welike what WE like! Almost every file I have saved in PZP files I reuse for other templates.Funny how some people are clueless and spout baloney when they just simply don'tknow what in the h e double hockey sticks they are talking about.
