Corel Photo Album 6 Panorama Feature

Post by doug11046 »

One of the best features of Photo Album 6 is the Panorama feature. I use it all of the time after downloading photos after hiking in the Canadian rockies. I noticied lately that the Panorana feature no longer works. It gets hung up waiting for me to crop the photo after creating the panaorma. I can't clear the notice telling me that I need to crop the photo before I can proceed further. I have uninstalled both Photo Album 6 and Paintshop Photo Pro X3 using the uninstall feature under the 'Control Panel - Programs and Features' and resinstalled Corel Photo Album 6 with no luck.

Can anyone assist me?

Thanks,
Doug

Welcome to the forums Doug, :)

Why did you also uninstall PSP X3? Were you having problems with it also?

What changed on your system? If you were not having any problems with, AND have not changed operating systems, it might be an update caused the problem? Was there a Win7 update prior to the problem?

Just adding to Ron's response. If the problem started when you upgrade to Windows 7 then the problem is with Photo Album 6 is not compatible with Windows 7.

You can visit http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/ ... 4516325170, to know which version of the Corel Software is compatible with Windows 7.

There is a workaround for you to make old program works on Windows 7, however we cannot assure you this is a 100% fool proof. You can use the Windows 7 Program Compatibility and the Windows XP Mode with Virtual PC, which are both from Microsoft.

You can follow the steps for Windows 7 Program Compatibility from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/wind ... of-Windows

You can download and install the Windows XP Mode with Virtual PC from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtua ... nload.aspx.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I tried setting the compatability to XP SP2 using the Properties / Compatability settings, however this did not solve the problem. I then tried downloading and installing the Windows XP Mode with Virtual PC, however I seen Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate to be able to download the files.
