View 3 RepliesIf I backup my catalog with people that are tagged, when I restore the catalog (fresh Install on new PC) will the tagged people be restored as well?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a huge number of photos in an Elements 9 catalog. Having downloaded the trial version of Elements 11 and opted to convert the catalog, I see that the 'people' tags now don't show. I know there is the new 'people' feature in v11, but I'd like to have the old people tags available there for clicking as well!

My question is can you move the catalog from elements with all the tags etc. and put it into photoshop cs2 with adobe bridge. I need to know because I plan to reformat my old computer before photoshop arrives and if I should back it up.

She is an EX-fiance, in the purple with large arrow. The person to her left is the person who will be passing away very soon. I would like to remove the first person and slide second person to the right in place of the first person. I only have elements.
I have Photoshop Elements 11 on my old computer with a catalog with many tags. I bought a new machine and loaded Photoshop Elements 12. I then backed up my Elements 11 catalog using Full backup. Then went to new machine and restored. All my pictures transferred and file structure was as expected. But only some, seemingly random, tags came through. Also many edited pics are now showing as two or more separate files and not as versions. None of my albums were restored.

To move the Organizer Catalog I have tried several time to create a backup on an external hard drive from version 9 so i can restore it on the new computer with the upgraded software. Each time i run the backup the process stops and displays an error message "Error encountered while writing files". This occurs when the process is approximately 75% complete. There are 12,326 items in the catalog, the estimated "media size" needed it 142,891.30 MB, i have 339 GB of free space on the external hard drive.

I just reinstalled PS elements 9.0.when I restore my catalog and select original, my pictures will be put back in the my picture folder with all the same folders in tact.It is the same OS, win 7. Or, do i move my pictures back in and then restore the catalog?If i feel maybe my catalog was missing some of my pictures, can I install my pics to the same folder and if the same pics are there, it will say, file already exists..
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using Google Drive to store my photos so they are automatically backed up and sync'd across multiple computers, as well as my phone.
I am buying a new primary computer and will need to transfer the catalog to the new computer. However, as I will be installing Google Drive on that computer as well, the photos will all sync down automatically. There is no need to have PE10 copy my flies from the old computer as part of the transfer process, as described here: [URL] ....
The way I see it, there are two scenarios:
I HAVE to use PE10 to make a back up of all the files in the catalog onto an external drive. I import the library on the new computer and either A) Google Drive recognizes that the files are all the same and doesn't waste time syncing the files or B) Google Drive replaces the 110 GB of files currently on the servers with the same files, then pushes those files down to all the devices that are synced.
or...
I can use Google Drive to push the photos onto my new computer, then the paths, tags, albums and other catalog information can be imported without PE10 worrying about the photo files themselves.
My computer died but I have access to the old hard drive and I also have a backup of the photos but not their catalogs. Can I import the catalog files from the old computer?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have used Elements 8 for many years to organize my thousands of photos. I know where the catalog file lives on my laptop and it has an extension of .pse8db.
I would now like to use that same catalog file as I move to use Lightroom so that I don't lose all that data.
I believe that now it needs to be .lrcat.
What process do I need to follow in order to upgrade my catalog from Elements 8 to Lightroom?
I recently upgraded from PSE 10 to PSE 11. I already used tags to identify People by name. However, in the new People View not all of my people tags are present as People Stacks despite running the face recognition function. If I use the Add People function it just runs the face recognition feature that I have already run and named the specific person I want to see in the stacks.Strange thing is when I click the Add Group button I can see the missing people but do not know how to get them shown in the People Stacks?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have about 11,000 pix in PSE 11 and growing, all of a large family. Using 'Add People" in organizer worked well up till I reached 9,000 pix. I get the msg that all faces have been tagged. I've been scanning about 300 pix from our old albums and always try to add people after each group. I am not even getting the "Is this a person" message. I can go to each batch and manually answer "Who is this? Database size problem??
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a catalog of 13k+ photos that I'm trying to clean up. I'm using Elements 7, I have purchased Elements 11, and am planning to install it soon. Part of my photos are physically located on my hard drive, and part are on a network drive mapped as J:. Elements finds these photos on J: but I don't think that the Elements Catalog is aware that J: is a network drive/removable drive. It looks for them every time I open Elements, making the program very slow to start up.
Should I use the "move to removable drive" to move these photos? How will Elements treat these photos that have been sent to a removable disk? Will I still be able to see thumbnails of the photos and search through my tags for them? If I copy my photos to a new drive, but still call that drive J: will Elements be able to find them? And finally, if I perform this "move to removable disk" task, should I do it now with Elements 7 or update to Elements 11 first?
how to go about moving all the photos that are currently on my comp hard drive to an external hard drive without losing all my work labelling the photos in the catalog. I want to avoid having to relink all the connections on >15k photos which are all tagged and in a catalog.
BTW I am currently running on PSE 7.0 but am willing to upgrade.
I have just upgraded from PSE 9 to PSE 11 and have imported some pictures that I have tagged in another program. Importing tags for everything other than people works fine (already used tags are recognized and reused). But importing tags for people proved to be a problem. They did not merge automatically with my previous people tags in PSE. My imported people tags ar now placed under "Imported Keyword Tags" in the "Media" workspace. How do I merge or move them to the "People" work space where the people tags for PSE 11 is placed?
I also wonder why people and other tags are put in different places. Is it possible to view all keyword tags in one list/place?
I have managed to install Smoke (Pre release 1) with no problems. However, I have ended up with my framestore on my boot drive. How can I move it or create a new one?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy latest battle with PSE11 is trying to access my catalog in PSE11 via the Catalog Manager but it doesn't show up in the list.
The catalog is named My Catalog 2 is located at C:ProgramDataAdobeElements OrganizerCatalogsMy Catalog 2. It is the only catalog I use and is the one that opens up when I launch Organizer. But, for the life of me, I can't get it to show up in the Catalog Manager. The only catalog that shows up is the original catalog which is at a different location and was created when I installed PSE11 on my new computer (Thinkpad W530, Windows 8). I've tried the Custom Location option and browsing to the location, but still no dice. This catalog has thousands of pictures and was converted from my previous PSE6 catalog. How do I get the Catalog Manager to find my current active catalog?

View 5 Replies View RelatedIf I have photographs with my children from age 1 through 40 in them, Should I sequence the search from age one on up, at say, one year increments? When you tell it to IGNORE is it just for that pass? Why does it constantly miss the obvious, known, face and ask about the bend in the chair that is not even a person?
Is there a better way to TAG People?
I can't add people to my new elements 11 organizer. Keeps telling me no new people found.

I need to tell LR where the photos are on the Mac. When I try to import the catalog - it shows my old PC drives...
I'm trying to import the images from a CF card to Lightroom 4.3 however the only options available to me are Copy as DNG or Copy....Move and Add are dark grayed out and I cannot select them. I do notice when I go to the Import module, the Add selector is white for a few moments and then it goes to black.
I'm running:
MacBook Pro Mac OX 10.6.8
Trial version of LR 4.3.
CF card is coming as .NEF from a Nikon D800.
I have done this before, regularly, it seems that with this update it is not possible. I'm not interested in importing because HDD space is limited AND I don't use this computer for editing/file management. The imports go to a drive array in another location. I don't want to be to overly emphatic about this, but I'm not interested in importing to the HDD on the MacBook Pro.BTW, I have tested it and it does import just fine into the catalog to the HDD.
Below is a screen shot of my catalog import options. I've looked for ways to change the settings but even setting it to Copy back to the card itself does not allow me to Move or Add Without Moving. Only Copy in two different formats is available.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've just started using PSE 11 Organizer and tried to add some of my pictures to People. I selected several photos in the Media Room and then clicked the Add people button. After a brief time, a dialog momentarily appeared and then immediatly closed and a ghost message appeared saying "No new people in your selection". I tried other different selections but all with the same result. I checked the People tab and there are no people listed there.
