I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.0 installed on my Windows 7 computer and have recently started getting a message that I believe may be associated with that program. The message reads "CAHeadless Debug Event" "CAHeadless has encountered an error - [..\..\Src\DataManager.cpp-410]"
Does anyone know what may be causing this message and how to cure it. I am able to click the Continue button and everything works as it should but it is a little annoying.
Thanks
Patrick

You might like to know that I tried a different forum with this problem and had a reply that suggested I do the following:
1. Make sure that Premiere Elements and the Photoshop Elements Editor
are closed.
2. Open the Catalog Manager.
3. In the Catalog Manager, click New.
4. Type a name for this new catalog and then click OK. The Organizer
opens with this new, blank catalog.
That’s it then you can go back to the original catalog. No guarantee as I’ve just tried it and haven’t had long enough to know if it works or not.
Hope that may be of some help.

I am having the same issue. I would really like to find out why as well!
Thanks, Amy

Same Error. Existing catalog. BIG catalog. Not interested in starting a new one. Very annoying. What's up Adobe? Surely there's more info available here..

I am also having the same CAHeadless Debug error on PSE 9.
Switching catalogs does not help.
Turning off face recognition does not help.
I have looked through the forums and on the internet and it seems that this is a common problem for PSE 7, PSE 8, and now PSE 9.
Does anyone have a solution?

I am encountering the same error and would like a solution from Adobe. Has anyone found a work-around for this problem? Keep the thread spinning until Adobe discover/invents a solution. Bill.

Glad that I am not the only one. I have the message on the forum since Dec 10,2010 with 30 reads but 0 answer. I wish both of us luck.

Hi George,
Thank you for your patience. I can understand that it must make you feel
upset and we will work toward fixing this situation for you.
Please try the following steps:
> It seems that it is a catalog issue.
To create a catalog:
1. Make sure that Premiere Elements and the Photoshop Elements Editor
are closed.
2. Open the Catalog Manager.
3. In the Catalog Manager, click New.
4. Type a name for this new catalog and then click OK. The Organizer
opens with this new, blank catalog
Itwork for me! I hope that you can do the same. In my case it was the 'Catalog' issue.

What do you guys expect ? I have the same error, besides others, Tried the same like you guys, did not help After 30 yrs IT, I think I have rarely seen such an obsolete, unintuitiv and error prone product. Especially this organizer is a pain in the behind. Fit's my feelings about Adobe products as such.

Just got the next one, now the elements autoanalyzer "has encountered a problem and needs to close"

Are there video files in your catalog? You can switch of AA by going to preferences and uncheck the option to analyze files automatically.

Yes, there are video files, but I have the analyze off already.

The problem is with the auto analyzer. It recently turned this on and the message started appearing - now turned it off and the message gone away! Turn it off in your preferences under Media Analysis.

Thanks for the advice. Tried this twice; it did not work. The error message reappeared when I used PSE 9. Many other subscribers to PSE 9 seem to have the same problem. It does not affect the operation of the program, but it is just another one of those nagging problems the original software manufacturer should address.

I have the same problem on my system, but it seams to be soved according to the instructions of Mr. William Mahar.
- Also a problem for me in the same connection is, that if I open a file of 2011, the PSE shows up with files of 2009. I thought it could be also a problem of the media analaysis. I shut them off in the preferences, but this problem still occurs.
- An other problem is that I can't download Adobe Help since several days, even a fortnight. My PSE9 has been delivered with the help files of PSE8. Up to now I have not found any answer in a forum

Wow, thank you! This worked. I actually have tried all things and this is the only thing that removed it. You are awesome!

I'm finding this completely frustrating as well. I've shut down all auto-analysis options and will see what happens. Sadly clicking continue on the error dialogue box for me completely locks my system (Windows 7, 64 bit) and so requires a hard reset.

I am getting the CAHeadless error with the number at the end being
409 instead of 410. Has anybody been able to cure this problem. I am
becoming frustrated as many ae with poor Adobe support. I don't like getting on the phone and waiting forever to talk to some dolt who doesn't help.

Dear Sir,
I have taken the advice as given in the http://forums.adobe.com/message/3719177#3719177 by William Mahar
It worked. I really do hope that it does also with 409.
PSE9 is still a mess. Previously I used Ver. 2, 4, 7, 8 and now 9, always hoping the new version would be improved and having less bugs. But unfortunately I got always disappointed.

Hi Gordon
Sorry, I meant PatrikDyer44 under Point No. 4 of the thread. But in addition I turned off the auto analyser as mentioned by William Mahar under message No. 13

Same problems and then system freezes. it

I too am a user of Photoshop Elements9 installed on my Windows 7 computer. I recently encountered the CA Headless 410 Problem. I tried the trick of creating a new Catalog and then going back to the original. I have also tried turning off the Media Analysis. No help.
The pressing the continue button when the error message appears allows you to keep on working in Organizer. But if you tried to create a video with music it then closes the program down no matter what I have tried. Has anyone come up with a new solution that works?
Thanks.

I got a similiar message which I thought used words "headless bug" but it was probably debug.
I more often get the following whenever I go to create a new album in the Organizer:
"A problem occurred while loading this album template. An auxilliary file may be missing or damaged. Please reinstall the application to correct the problem."
Then I click OK and I can go ahead and create the album. So everything still works but why does this meaningless message appear up every time???????????????????????

I just want to inform you all that I installed PE10 and I am ow also getting this Ca Headless-message. So a new version is no help. I had no problem in PE9.
