Photoshop Elements :: Where Is Catalog Hidden On HD For 7
Nov 8, 2013
Comp. crashed.I've loaded all my photos and PSE 7 onto the new HD but find the catalog on the old HD. I can bring up PSE from the old drive with all the pics and tags showing, but can not find the catalog to move it to the new computer's HD. I've been trying for days with no luck.
We have 11000+ plus photos all carefully cataloged in Photoshop Album 1.0 on my old Windows XP PC. Our new PC is Windows 7 Home Premium with Photoshop Elements 9. How do I import our existing catalog and continue sorting our new photos into our old catalog?
My 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?
I am using Elements 11 on an iMAc, the top of the organizer panel is hidden under the task bar - so I can't access it. The usual clicks and key strokes won't work. I have uninstalled and reinstalled - still doesn't work. This doesn't happen with with he editor screen. How to proceed?
A friend just called and said that she had done something in Photoshop Elements 5.5 that turned on hidden charaters when she uses the type tool. She's seeing the Pargraph symbol etc. and wants to turn it off.
I've looked and looked for somehing that has a shorcut key or a way to turn it on and off but I can't find anything.
In 2008, never had this issue.Just dumb, circles, and lines in a view port, that have hidden or center linetyoes assigned to them. When we go to plot using legacy hidden (this new for 2012?) the plot comes out with continuous lines. These are not solids. Just ordinary line entities.Now, when I change the shadeplot to "hidden" the linetype is shown correctly, but now my entities are coloured, when I just want my drawing to be black and white (going to PDF), even though all of the colours in the pen style are set to "Black".
Has this changed? Is there a new variable introduced?
I'm drawing objects (walls, platforms, etc.) in 3d made up primarily of extruded polygons. I want to be able to plot these objects in a way that hides all of the lines which are obscured by other objects. Currently I have my viewports set up with a 2D Wireframe visual style and a Hidden shade plot. This isn't working for me. I'm still getting all of the lines in the drawing visible no matter what.
Here's the strange thing: It seems to work perfectly fine in plan view, but not in front view. Also, it's worked fine in the past. It seems that the problem has gotten progressively worse over the past year or so.
I use the wp_oEmbed and the edge suite plug-in and in both cases the hidden off-stage elements are visible. This seems to only happen in WordPress. Standard HTML iframe does not have this problem, not does the simple html generated by edge. This seems to happen in all browsers. I even tried inline styling with a div and overflow hidden command.
I recently bought a new computer and with I ordered photoshop cs2. This would be an upgrade from elements for me. 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.
When I try to backup the catalog, it starts to calculate space; at 24% through the process photoshop appears to freeze and no further progress occurs. How can I get past this problem?
I have pse11 and i've lost the catalog with all my photos. I was in "manage" catalogs and somehow set up a new catalog. It contains no picshow do I restore?
I use different catalogs in my PSE10 for different purposes.The file name of the catalogs is always the same: catalog.pse10db.Ok, they are in different directories. And have have only one open at the same time.But could it be a problem in a specific constellation? So would it be wise to renamethe file names of the catalogs - like catalog_tim.pse10db ?
It stalls during the "Calculating Total Media Size" operation. All else seems OK. I am able to "Save Metadata to Files" and "Prepare Files". I'm running Windows 7 64bit w/ latest updates.
How do you transfer a PSE 3 catalogue form an XP computer to PSE 8 or 11 on a new 7-64bit computer. I have not installed PSE 8 or 11 on the new computer yet. I need to have the PSE 3 catalogue transfered complete with groups and collections to the new computer. Should I install PSE 3 on the new computer then transfer or should I install PSE 8 or 11. I'm told that you can't transfer PSE 3 to PSE 11, but will PSE 8 work?
This has been an intermittent problem. I can't open Elements 5.0. It hangs up when trying to load an old catalog. Is there a way to work around the issue. I only use PSE 5.0 for slide shows, all other work is done in the full version of Photoshop.
I'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 was working with a group of 12 photos in my cataalog, and it went away. I tried to revive, no luck. So I tried to import the items again -- the screen would not allow it because they were already in the catalog. How can I recover???
I have PSE 9 all organize now I upgraded to PSE 11 and I am having trouble transfering my catalog.I've tried to import it from my external drive but it's not working.
I had PSE10 installed. I just installed PSE11.0, and the new catalog is located in:
%allUsersProfile%AdobeElements OrganizerCatalogs
I would like to move the catalog to a private location:
%appData%AdobeElements Organizer
I click the File menu and click Manage Catalogs. I then click my current catalog, click the Move button, and click "Catalogs Accessible by the Current User". However, I then get an error message saying "The Catalog "Shane" could not be moved because it is in use by another program".
How can I find out which other program is using my current catalog?
