I have PrintMaster Platinum 15. I love it! burt recently it is saving cards under the wrong name or wrong picture and I am unable to correct it. I save the cards on an external drive. but when I go to my project the latest saved cards are listed incorrectly. I also have The Print Shop Publishing Suite and I am unable to install it on my new computer.....I have lost access to these card.

go to the websight to update the security protocalls and other uppdates as well

You can try version 15 in compatibility mode:

Troubleshoot Compatibility
This can help with some (but not all) programs/drivers:
1) Uninstall the program if it's already installed. Then when you install/reinstall it instead of double clicking on the install file right click it and select "Troubleshoot Compatibility"
2) Then click "Try Recommended Settings" and in the next window click "Start the Program" to install it.
3) After it installs see if it works correctly. Please note - some programs may not be able to run in Windows 7.
More details about how to make older programs run in this version of Windows:

I haven't used that version of printmaster but if you can see it correctly on the screen but not when printed I would check the name of the font used and then check to see if that font is installed in windows. Go to the font folder and look for it. If i recall PrintMaster comes with some fonts that are not included in windows. You can add fonts to windows btw.

Here's my solution: Don't waste your time and money on, use a program other than PrintMaster! PDF is universally accepted across formats/browsers/OS ...what kind of program would not export THE most commonly used format????

May have to uninstall it first, then reinstall it.

Click START button, lower left corner
then click Control panel
then click on add or remove programs

*see if your product is listed(may be under BRODERBUND or other publisher name)
If it IS listed, uninstall it

Or sometimes the UNINSTALL is included in the CD options:
Insert the cd into the drive
go to my computer
find the cd drive
right-click the drive
select "explore"
Look for an Uninstall program

Hope this helps!
