View 1 RepliesI have a desktop (Windows 7) and a laptop (windows 8), both are running Elements 8. I plan to share photos and catalog between them with no duplication of data.
An external harddrive was attached to the desktop, photos were downloaded, a catalog was created, photos were imported - all worked fine.
I detached the ext drive from the desktop and attached it to the laptop with the same drive letter as used on the desktop. The custom location of the catalog was set to point to the catalog on the ext drive. When I tried to open this catalog, I got the message: "The catalog could not be opened. It is either corrupt, or the version is out of date and cannot be updated" I moved the ext drive back to the desktop and it worked OK, as before.
I then set up a working version of elements on the laptop by:
1. Backing up the catalog on the desktop and restoring it to the laptop.
2. Copying the photos from the desktop to the laptop.
3. Reconnecting the photos to the catalog.
Adobe then worked fine on the laptop using the restored catalog.
But, this is not what I want to do. I want to have ONE catalog and ONE set of photos on an ext drive which can be plugged into either computer.
We have about 10,000 photos to scan from my Mother's old albums (80 years of photos). We each have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. We want to split the photos up and each of us tag different photos (using same tag names) and then be able put it all together so that each of us have the same photos with the same tags.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a possibility to distribute a batch task between several computers? For example rendering raw files into jpgs and applying actions.
On bigger events it would greatly reduce the waiting time for the processed files. Instead of one computer working for two hours, maybe two machines could do it in an hour?
Of course I can split the files and start two separate batch tasks on separate computers but a task server would make the workflow easier. 3D and video software have a lot of options for distributed rendering..
I have a Toshiba U920T which so far doesn't support Adobe Photoshop when drawing with my finger or stylus. My friend has a HP Slate and it works fine in that. Unfortunately I can't get the same slate as he has as it's older and not in stock anymore. Is there a list of touch screen compatible computers somewhere? ( without the drag out side the screen workaround or start by tapping the mouse button trick which are unworkable for drawing properly )

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat is the most efficient way to manage and migrate my Photoshop workspace and other preferences while working on different computers in the Cloud?
My home computer has Photoshop CS6 installed and I’m about to customize my preferences and workspace in the app. If I use my Cloud subscription at my workplace, how do access those same preferences at my workplace? Do I have to manually transfer my user prefs from my library,
In CS6, when I apply folder effects in a file on my laptop and then transfer them to my tower (computer that is, I am not a prince and do not have an actual castle with a tower) then all of the effects I have applied to a folder do NOT show up when I open the document.
The folder effects DO save on each computer, example: if I save a file and open it up the next day on the same computer it opens and displays as expected.
If I transfer the file either from my tower to my laptop or laptop to my tower the effects are completely erases from a folder (not from a layer)
I am using a USB flash drive to transfer the files. You can imagine how frustrating it is to open a file and have to go through your folders to apply all of the correct effects again.
I recently saved an image on Photoshop CS6 as a PNG file so I could send it as an attachment to a client (who uses a Windows computer). They told me the file wouldn't open and instead showed as an "Unknown File".
I tried opening the file on my Windows computer, as well as a JPEG version to test out, but both came up as "Unknown Files".
The only way I could transfer the files I saved in Photoshop was to export them as PNG through the 'Preview' application.
Is there a reason why these normal formats won't open properly?
I have some photos downloaded from some sites... my problem with some of them are small. I want to resize them with CS3 so that when opening them up it will open to the size of my screen just like other photo format u get from your digital camera... oh one thing i just need the real size regardless of any quality it may have affect when zooming it to bigger one.

View 1 Replies View Relatedhow subassemblies work, vis a vis pkt files & all the files created in the ProgramData folder (.atc, .cfg, .dll, .emd, .pvd, .xaml, pdb)? Here's our situation:
A user will make a subassembly, save it locally. The subassembly is used in a corridor. A different user tries to access this file: the subassembly is there (shows in plan), but the parameters are empty and that part of the assembly doesn't run. The subassembly doesn't appear in the Tool Pallet. You do get a .NET error when trying to look at the subassembly.
How we fix this is to open up the C:ProgramDataAutodeskC3D 2013enuImported Tools folder on the computer which made the subassembly, copy everything, and paste it into the other computer's C:ProgramDataAutodeskC3D 2013enuImported Tools folder. How/why doesn't the drawing which has the subassembly in it just work?? And moving forward, how can we share drawings with custom subassemblies? Remap everyone's .net search path to a network drive?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with loading a dll file I created with Visual Express 2010. We are using this VB-project in the company for a year now and we have never had a problem with it. But now we do.
The dll is loaded with the use of the Autoloader. For me it is a nice way to load dll and lisp files everybody needs at startup.This is the xml code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><ApplicationPackage SchemaVersion="1.0" Name="Instellingen ABR" > <Components> <ComponentEntry AppName="LISPAWSABR" ModuleName="./Contents/awsexport.lsp" LoadOnCommandInvocation="True"> <Commands GroupName="ADN_MINESWEEPER"> <Command Local="awsexport" Global="awsexport" StartupCommand="False" />
[code]...
Like I said, all went well untill I tried to install another copy of Autocad on another computer. The lisp-files are loading fine on this pc but the dll-file is not loading. When I try to load it with netload everything is ok so the dll should be allright.
Like all other pc's it is a Windows 7 64bit pc and nothing is different form those other pc's. So I really don't know where to look for the problem, let alone the solution.
I tried everything like renaming the dll (no spaces), trying to load the dll only, also loading from the programdata folder instead of the programfiles(x86) folder.
I am opeing a coworkers files in Illustrator, we both have the same version of illustrator (CS6) and the same fonts installed, but for some reason they're displaying differently on my computer than on his.
They're not missing - I didn't get an error when I opened the files, and highlighting the text doesn't give me a Font Family with an asterisk after it like it would if it were missing. So it seems like they should be working fine, and they sort of are. Anything in Franklin Gothic Demi seems to be Franklin Gothic Demi, for example, but the pt size, leading, tracking - all that sort of thing seems to be off.
