Q: I have been using Adobe Photodeluxe 3.0 for several years. Three days ago when I opened it, it throws up the usual screen, the Adobe box with copyright info but then goes no further. I have had a new PC with Vista since March 08.

I’m told Vista might be the problem. I’ve tons of PDD files that I cannot access now and of course all projects in progress are inaccessible. Is there a solution to this problem. I understand Adobe Elements replaces Deluxe. Will the PDD files be totally compatible with Elements? Is there some fix I can do so Deluxe will be operational, the better option for me. Yikes, I’m a bit beside myself right now. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
