Unfortuante to hear that... I've been tempted to try out PSP... (Don't want to give Adobe ALL my money!) :)

Hope they get that worked out.

Many problems with PSPXI and its patch, which really disappoints. I love PSP Just FYI, I found this info in Corel newsgroups about PSPXI, for anyone who has the problems involved with crashing and errors. Mine is so slow and crashes so I have reverted back to PSP9. I'm going to try this. I had read somewhere it is a cache problems...

As a follow up, here is a reply received from Corel Tech Support regarding
the C++ Runtime error listed below; it may be useful to those experiencing
this and related C++ errors. The steps noted did eliminate the error --
overall, however, I have found the program to be unstable, crashing numerous
times as it tried to rebuild the Organizer files. The reply notes an upcomng
update -- perhaps that will make the program more usable; in the meantime, I
have reinstalled PSP X and will use it primarily.

Reply from Corel Tech support:

We have determined the cause of the Runtime errors.

This error appears to be triggered by a problem with Paint Shop Pro's
Organizer reading IPTC data in specific file(s). It is not clear what
specific file(s) is causing the trouble on your given computer. With that
said, there are a couple things to do that should address this error.

On our end, we expect to have this behavior corrected in an update patch
(hopefully to be released in the very near future...I do not have specifics
on what exact date. Periodically check under Help | Check for Updates within
Paint Shop Pro to check for any available updates to the program).

On your end, there are two possible workarounds.

1. If this error happened after updating to 11.11, one option is to use the
11.00 version (without the patch) until our next update is available. or

2. Isolate the possible offending file(s). Essentially it should just be
related to .pspimage files that contain IPTC data, so ideally just isolating
any .pspimage files will allow the program to run properly. Here is how you
can isolate the files from the Paint Shop Pro Organizer.

First close any programs that are running.

Do the following to delete the Paint Shop Pro Photo XI Database files.

1. Go to Start | Run, Type %appdata% and click Ok.

2. Double-click on the Corel folder.

3. Delete the following files

ImageDB.db

LastDBFilter.PspCache

LastDBTreeSel.PspCache

thumbnails.db


Manually move the offending files from My Pictures and My Shared pictures to
a new temporary location. By default, the Paint Shop Pro Photo XI Organizer
will look at all files in My Pictures and My Shared Pictures folders (and
any subfolders contained within). It is critical to move any .pspimage files
from these locations to a different location. For example, we recommend
creating a new folder in My Documents for holding the moved files.

Once you have moved all .pspimage files from the previous location to the
newly created folder, try launching Paint Shop Pro Photo XI.

The program should launch correctly.

NOTE: it is critical NOT to use the Paint Shop Pro Photo XI Organizer to
browse to the location where you moved the .pspimage files as this would
likely generate the Runtime error again.

I have discovered that if you want to run PSPXI with no problems don;t use the organizer at all. Go under preferences, organizer, EXCLUDE ALL FILE FORMATS.

After three days, many uninstall, re install, update, re-update and three unanswered emails I finally uninstalled Paint Shop Pro XI for the last time.

I upgraded my computer to a system running Vista and reinstalled it with no problem. However the Vista upgrade which included the RAW update for my camera would not unpack and install no matter what I did. I can download a trial version and it works fine, but I cannot upgrade my existing version. My emails to Corel don't get answered. That's it, bye bye. It's a damn shame because I liked the product but what the heck, you buy cheap you get cheap.

It is a shame, tafkas, I am discouraged too. I really don't have the hours to make this right. I have gone back to my PSP 8 and 9. Very disappointed, that Corel is pretty much ignoring the known issue.

I liked the product too and sure wish I could just move the new photo tool additions to my PSP9 and be done with it. I find it hard to believe that Corel wouldn't feel the pinch of PS3, and make some effort to keep their customers. I was a great promoter of PSP. But not now. It's just not right, and it seems Corel may not be interested, possibly because they are working on a "Corel" named, new program that costs more and competes with PS3. Money talks. But they have lost alot of their loyals.

I have always proclaimed I did not need PS because PSP was so much better. But Corel dropped the ball. So I may move on. For now I use my favorite stand-by, PSP9.

Does anyone know if one can drop just a few effects into PSP9 and use them? Too good to be true, I know.... but it would be nice if they broke it up like plug-ins and let us choose which we needed. I'd be thrilled.
