View 1 RepliesI 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!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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 just upgraded my Swedish PSE7 to an English PSE11. Of course the people keyword tags did not get converted into people tags because People is called Folk in Swedish. I was not aware of this mechanism prior to upgrading. How can I convert those keyword tags now?

Now, in the Media view, over in the Tags/Info pane, I have Events, Other, and Places Tags, but no People Tags. However, when I look at individual photos in my converted catalogs, the people's names are still attached to them; the people icon is still associated with each photo so marked.
In PSE 10, when you imported new photos, you could drag People Tags from the Tags pane to one or more selected photos to quickly tag the subjects. Now, apparently, I'll have to group any new photos with people in them by hand and retype names over and over again — although those tags are already available in the catalog.
This is clearly insane. Surely Adobe hasn't taken something easy (dragging a people tag over from the right pane to a newly added photo) and turned it into something cumbersome and inefficient?
How do I get the Media view to populate the People Tags in the Tags pane along with the Existing Events, Other, and Places Tags?
I have a new computer and want to move the databse catalog over. I backed up in PSE 9 to an external hard drive. I connected to HD to the new computer and tried a resotre catalog. I chose "New Location" since I was going from XP to Windows 7 and was unsure if there would be a conflict with file locations. I also chose "Restore Original Floder Strucure". Very quickly I recieve an error message "Could not restor file .xml". I have run Restore Catalog several times and each time a DIFFERENT FILE receives the error message. I then disabled Norton Anti Virus Auto-Protect. I then disabled several programs running in the background. Same problem. I then copied the Backup Catalog to the new computer and tried to Restore it from there. Same Problem. I have now run a Repair Catalog on the original file. PSE states there is no error. I want to purchas PSE 11, but wanted to install/restore the database with the same version 9 first.

How am I supposed to add people tags to new photos?
During face recognition i mistype some names. Now i have unwanted tag names in the people tag catalog without any reference to pictures.
How can i delete those tags? I'm working with a germen version.
Running PSE 11 on Win 8. Have many People Tags entered over the years, but now they do not show in the area to the right where all other Tags are listed. I can no longer add a people tag to any photos.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've upgraded from PSE 6 to PSE 11. My people tags have carried over, but are not showing properly in the "People" view.
All my people tags are still present on the pictures and I can search using them by selecting "Advanced Search" in the media view. However, when I go to the People view, the only stacks I see are ones I have created in PSE 11 that were not tagged in my previous version. The names of all my previously tagged people only show when I click to view "Groups". Clicking on the name in "Groups" simply leads to the message "No people exist in this group" - even though the tag clearly shows on the images in the Media view.
Is there any way to convert the people listed as groups back to people tags that will be recognised by PSE? Even when I run the facial recognition software and tag people here, they still do not show up in the People view if they were previously tagged in PSE 6.
I have just replaced my old laptop and wish to export the people tags on the desktop to the laptop. I had no problem exporting/importing the normal keyword tags, but cannot export/import the people tags.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded to PSE 12. So now all my organisation folders are under the "keyword" tag. And I have a lot of them. Of course they are organized in folder/subfolders. And the main ones are "places" "events". The same as the default ones in pse.
So is it possible to move categories/directories from the keyword tag to event/place/people tags (drag and drop doesn't work).
Today, after moving some folders that were incorrectly located (based on year/month/date) back to their proper location, I optimized the catelog. I then discovered that all my keyword tags were missing, but the image caption and description ("Notes") were not lost. This amounts to approximately 10 years worth of images.
Why did did I lose all the keyword tags? How can I recover them? I have not closed or restarted the Elements Organizer, nor have I tried to Repair the catalogs for fear of overwriting something that cannot be corrected. When should the repair catelog be used?
I am using a Dell desktop computer with Windows XP. We have an external HD for backup that is supposed to be constantly syncing for backup.
In Photoshop Elements 5, how do I restore my organizer tags and collects after reloading Windows XP? Windows crashed but i can run in Safe Mode to get at my files/pictures which are backed up but is there something in Photoshop I can save to recover my organizer so that when reloading Windows XP and the App again the tags and collections remain?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've used PSE 6 before, but it doesn't work anymore in Win8, so I'm thinking of updating to PSE12.
To be honest, I don't know where is my old catalog located, but I think it is in the same folder as photos. At least I see "my catalog.psa" files in there. But when I' try to restore them to trial version of PSE12, it only accepts *.tly files. My files are .psa.
How I can restore my catalogs? Because if I can't, there's no point to buy Adobe product at all, because I have to create everything (thousands of photos) from scratch. So I can do that with Adobe product or with any other software, even with free ones.
I have photoshop elements 11. People analyzer will not recognize people or allow me to tag people in my photos. It works with my older camera photos such as from my Nikon D300 but will not work with photos from my D800 (RAW).

I get an error message saying that I should contact the disc drive manufacturer for the latest firmware before trying again. There is nothing wrong with the disc drive - it works perfectly with every other application. I open the disc drive in the control panel and can see the files I need are there. I have tried copying the files to my hard drive, removed the cd, and tried to restore via the hard drive option and still get the same error message.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just got Elements 11 (Windows 8) this week end, and I have a few questions about the Catalogue in the Organizer.
I spent a few hours tagging people, organizing categories, and so on. After that, I did a backup of the catalogue, which from my understanding includes every pictures.
However, does a backup of the "Pictures" folder manually every month. My question is, are the people and tags I added in the Organizer embedded in the pictures, or do I really need to backup and restore the catalog to keep everything I have tagged? If I reinstall Elements 11 and add the pictures manually as I would the first time, will all the info still be there?
PSE 11 catalog but when I try to restore it it says it's empty. I can open the folder/files on my hard drive but the restore function says it is empty.

Using the hyperlink in this paragraph is a dead end and yeilds a message "The file can't be found". I desperately need my .tly file restored. I do have Norton Ghost image backups but they don't do much good. I think the problem was generated when I removed PSE ver 11.
Hard disk crashed, replaced, files restored, all photos visible in Explorer, no photos in PhShop 10; how do I get the catalog restored?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am a Windows user moving to a Mac. I did a backup of my (Windows) Photoshop Elements 11 catalog on an external drive in preparation for restoring in on my MacBook pro.
I've read a number of different posts on here regarding the restore process and gathered the following information:
1) Open up Elements 11 on the Mac and select File > Restore Catalog
2) Navigate to external drive and select the .tly file. (choose as source of restore)
Backup folder contents on external drive (former Windows Catalog to be used on Mac)
1) My backup folder contains about 9,500 items. The majority of the files all beging with a "B" and are jpg files. However, a small number also end with the following: .cache, .dat, and .xml. Should these be in the backup file?
2) I also have "Catalog.buc" and "Backup.tly" files within my backup folder on my external drive
Question(s)
1. Based on the information I've read online, it would appear that the only thing I want to be concerned with in the backup folder is the "Backup.tly" and the other files contained within my backup folder on my external drive aren't relevant to the restore. Is that correct?
2. Do I need to select anything else as part of the restore process after selecting the "Backup.tly" on my external drive? For example, do I have to point to a folder on my Mac for the restore to occur or will this happen automatically since I will already have Photoshop Elements 11 open on my MacBook pro when I am performing the restore process?
3) Currently, I have hundreds of "folders" under "My Pictures" on my Windows machine that separate out each event (Xmas 2010, Xmas 2011, etc.). Up until now I haven't been using the tagging feature within Photoshop. My initial intent was to copy the "My Pictures" folder from my C drive on my Windows machine to the "Pictures" folder on my Mac. (not planning to import them into iPhoto).
Will PSE 11 on my Mac be able to "find" this new path for the photos that were moved from my Windows machine to the "Pictures" folder on my Mac? Do I need to do something to make sure this happens during the restore process on my Mac?
As an example, the patch for a random photo in PSE 11 on my Windows machine looks like the following:
C:Documents and SettingsTomMyDocumentsMyPicturesXmas 2010 (as an example for one of the pictures contained in my Windows catalog)
Clearly, this path won't exist on my MacBook Pro and I just want to make sure I know whether or not I have to do something to redirect the pictures in my (restored) catalog.
I have a problem to restore a catalog from a previous version of photoshop. But I have a catalog only under a .buc extension instead of a .tly extension I should have.
