I recently bought an Intel iMac, running Leopard 10.5.2, to replace my
iMac G4, running Tiger 10.4.11, and used Migration Assistant to transfer
all my programs and files. Everything works on the new iMac except for
the copy of Photoshop Elements 2.0 that came with my Epson Perfection
1260 scanner. The scanner software works fine using the standalone Epson
Scan app, but PE will not launch. I tried reinstalling PE, same problem.
Is Elements 2.0 compatible with Leopard, or do I need to upgrade?

Photoshop Elements 2.0 is _not_ compatible with Leopard. It's
compatible with all OS X versions through 10.4.11 but breaks with 10.5.
Of course, you could have learned this just by reading recent posts in
this newsgroup, as we've discussed this at length within the past couple
of weeks.
By the way, are you still posting from the iMac G4? Your User-Agent
header says "MT-NewsWatcher/3.5.2 (PPC Mac OS X)."

Thanks for the info. I did look at previous posts but didn't see
anything relevant. I guess I didn't read carefully enough.

For now the Intel iMac is in another room, away from internet access.
I'll either get a wireless router or switch rooms on the two computers.

Well, it turns out I was thinking of a much older thread. The topic came
up again in a thread with the subject "Freeware Defragging Software," so
of course you would have missed it if you had no interest in that
subject.

No but the new version of Elements coming out next month is supposed to be.
