Need help with Mommyish Actions

I'm working in PSE 11. I bought the chipboard style actions and loaded them in folders (I watched the YouTube videos Leah had posted). When I hit play, I get a notice that "The object "style Mommyish - Chipboard Action Pt 1 Style" is not currently available." with continue or stop options. I've deleted the thumbdatabase file and reopened PSE several times with no success. What am I missing?

I don't have these, but could it have something to do with what you're trying to use it on? I know some of my actions only work on certain types of layers.
 
I am sure she will check soon. It is hard to have mother's day and this celebration at the same time.
 
Make sure the style is installed as a style, not an action. The action seems to be installed fine, but it sounds like it's not finding the style.
 
I agree with Lorry. Did you install both the action and the style?
 
I thought I installed the action as an action and the style as a style but I'll try again today with fresh eyes. I tried both from the drop down in PSE and when that didn't work I tried in the program data files. I'll delete and try again. Thanks! It is a crazy weekend :)

ETA: I unistalled and reinstalled everything. I can see the styles in the style layer and the actions are installed. I'm getting the same error. Since this is my first time using actions I know it's most likely user error (me). I appreciate the patience :)

Most recent: After fiddling around more with installing and deleting, starting over, etc. I got the actions to run until it gets to Rasterize. I didn't think that was an option in PSE. I loaded from the PSE file (not CS) so I think I did it right but I'm going to try again. Thanks
