Album Starter 3.0 - Datenbank sichern

Hallo liebes Forum,
ich habe Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.0 installiert in der Hoffnung mit diesem Programm meine Fotos einfach und preiswert (da kostenlos) zu katalogisieren. Das geht auch seit ca. 2000 Bildern sehr gut. Nun denke ich aber auch an eine Sicherung der Datenbank und an den Zugriff auf diese Datenbank von mehreren Rechnern aus nach. Die Bilder liegen auf einer mobilen Festplatte und ich möchte jetzt gerne die Datenbank auch auf diese Festplatte kopieren. Anschließend sollte diese Datenbank von allen Rechner einsehbar sein an der die Festplatte angeschlossen ist.
Dieses funktioniert sicherlich nicht mehr mit Album Starter. Aber in welches Programm (evtl. Album 2.0 oder Elements) kann ich meine bestehende Datenbank übernehmen und dann sichern. Außerdem möchte ich ja auch dieses Programm auf mehreren Rechner installieren und auf die eine Datenbank zugreifen.
Für eine Kaufempfehlung währe ich euch sehr dankbar.
Mit bestem Dank im Voraus
Markus Faesing

Hallo Herr Faesing,
leider ist so etwas in den aktuellen Versionen von Album und Elements nicht realisierbar. Eine (Not-)Lösung gibt es natürlich - man legt ein Backup an und installiert das Backup auf dem nächsten Rechner. Ein echtes "Synchronisieren" fehlt bisher leider.
Andererseits gibt es auch ein prinzipbedingtes Problem: Da sich die Programme ja Pfade zu den Dateispeicherorten merken, stellt die Funktionsweise von Windows, neue Laufwerksbuchstaben zu vergeben, gerade bei verschiedenen Rechnern in Kombination mit Wechsellaufwerken jedes Programm vor Probleme...

  • A need to get photos of my baby from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 but I don't have a code so I cannot access in it. Somebody can help me, please?

    Two days ago I introduced photos of my baby into my PC and automatically went into the programm Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Then they were deleted of my photo camera. Then I wanted to access to the photos in the Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 but I read that since the end of Juny we need a decodification code and that now it is not availabel. So I don't have this code and I need to access to the photos. Please, somebody can help me?. Thank you.

    Thank you for your help, Gunjan, but I have already tried to contact adobe tech support and I cannot get a code still now. I just find fixed issues where there is not shown my problem and I cannot find the way to write my question about my need of a code for Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Could you or somebody tell me the way to get the code through adobe.

  • How do I get my videos to all work correctly in Photoshop Album Starter Edition Ver. 3.0?

    I have been using version 3.0 for the last 3 years and had no problems with any of my videos playing once they were downloaded from my mobile phone or camera to version 3.0 until August 2007 but now a lot of them say 'The selected file cannot be played'.  All the files that don't work are '.AVI' files and the only thing I can see they have in common is that in the file name it says -1x-1 next to the file size and length of the clip, whereas the working files have full numbers i.e. 640*480.  I still have a couple of files downloaded after August 2007 that do play but not many.  Is there any way I can change the settings or recover these files so they will actually play?

    It seems to me that these problematic files may not be .avi files, or are corrupted; it doesn't seem likley that it's a setting in Photoshop Album Starter Edition.
    Do any of those files play in Windows Media player? Another possibility could be that these files are sidecar files to your video files; are there similarly-named video files that work fine? If so, then I would suspect that these .avi files are, again, not .avi files, and could be simply text info that goes along with  your .avi files, and could be ignored (removed from the catalog).

  • PSE unable to create thumbnails after Album Starter removed

    My sister accepted the upgrade to Adobe Reader 8.0 and said Photoshop Album Starter was automatically loaded on her computer with that upgrade. When she had difficulty working with it, we found some instructions for unloading it, which she did. However, then her problems "really" began. Several pictures on her Desktop were renamed with the PDF file extension, and their thumbnails were totally black. Her "Pix" folder on her Desktop and all the pictures she had in it, plus other pictures stored on her Desktop, disappeared into her Recycle Bin. I restored these files and the folder back to her Desktop, but many of these also had the black thumbnails, or black thumbnails with a thin stripe of colors mixed in with the black across the top. We could still open the pictures, which was a blessing, at least.
    However, things became worse as we discovered that ALL new files created with Photoshop Elements (she has both 3.0 and 1.0 and both responded the same way) will no longer create thumbnails. I opened one of the corrupted-thumbnail photos and copied the layer into a new Photoshop Elements document and saved the file with a new filename and a PSD extension thinking that would give us back a file with a thumbnail. Wrong. Still got a black thumbnail. Tried saving as a JPG; still no go. I then selected New and created a totally new document. Same result; no thumbnail. So I created new documents in her Corel Painter IX and Microsoft Paint to see if this was just an "Adobe" thing, and these other programs had no problem creating normal thumbnails with saved documents. So, it's obviously just an Adobe thing.
    My only thought at this point is that unloading Adobe Album also deleted or corrupted a shared Adobe file that allows Adobe products to create thumbnails. I suggested that she try reloading her Photoshop Elements programs to see if that brings back the ability to create thumbnails.
    Sorry for the long background, but does anyone out there know how to get Photoshop Elements to start creating thumbnails again after getting rid of Album? I'd be ever so grateful if you could help us out!

    Hey, Marilyn, I found an answer! Well, this doesn't "fix" the problem, but it does allow you to work around it. There is a program (shareware) called "Thumbnail View," and you can find it at the address below.
    http://www.seriema.net/thumbview/index.php...e=download_lite
    It worked for me, and my computer's not very new. I can now see PSD thumbnails where before there was just a little icon. Best of luck.

  • Can't open a PDF file with acrobat photoshop album starter 3.0

    scanned pictures and saved them as a PDF file in another computer. I think the version was 6 (but not sure). I downloaded acrobat reader (version + acrobat Photoshop to my computer.
    now I'm trying to open the files in order to make some changes in the photos (cut them and so on), but I cant open them. can open them with the acrobat reader. but not with adobe Photoshop album started 3.0. I am getting a massage saying "the PDF file foes not contain any photos" and it shows the location of the file. the file definitely contains photos. what do I need to do?
    thanks for the help, nilli

    Is it Photoshop Starter Edition that is giving your the No Photos message or is it Reader?
    If the PDF has photos in it, and you open it with Reader, you should see a toolbar called Picture Tasks. Picture Tasks will let you extract the photos.

  • Photoshop Album Starter edition 3.2 abnormal program termination

    I have just logged onto version 3.0 and I was offered an upgrade to 3.2 via the message centre. I followed all instructions and downloaded the files.
    When I now go to open the Album an error message comes up headed:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library.
    In the window centre the message reads:
    Program: ... Starter Edition\3.2\Apps\Photoshop Album Starter Edition.exe
    abnormal program termination
    (Press retry to debug the application)
    When I press retry the program simply shuts down.
    Any thoughts?

    Ian,
    Try uninstalling and reinstalling it. Something obviously went wrong
    with the upgrade.

  • PhotoShop Album Starter Ed. Interferes with Flash Drives

    I have installed the Adobe PhotoShop Album Starter Edition 3 on a new computer and can no longer use my flash drives for data. The drives no longer appear in Windows Explorer and there is nothing that I can find in the program prefs that will let me turn off the auto launch and import routine that starts every time I insert a flash drive. I have not had this problem on the old computer running the same version of the software and the operating system. I have had to remove the program so that I can regain the use of my flash drives for handling data. Does anyone know the secret to being able to use both PhotoShop album Starter Edition AND flash drives for data? I am running WinXP SP2.
    Thanks for the help,
    Tom Davis

    I observed same problem on my machine many times. I have noticed that we remove flash drive/card reader without using "Safely Remove Hardware" of windows then sometimes windows explorer is not able recognize the card reader/flash drive.
    For this, I would suggest you to click on device hardware icon in the system tray and select "Safely Remove Hardware" and then click [Stop] in the next window. Then windows will tell you if device is busy or safe to remove.
    Using this , I am no longer observing problem of card reader not being recognized. Hope this helps!

  • How to transfer metadata (tags etc) from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 to A P Elements 8

    I have just bought the Adobe Elements 8. I was told that this product was the upgrade product from the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Can't find a clear solution in this forum of how to transfer the metadata to the Adobe Elements 8  and continue the indexing with the latest product. Hopefully somebody can help.
    Bjorn

    If you still have your 3.2 psa catalog in your "My Catalogs" folder, try
    downloading PSE5  from here:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/photoshop_elements_5.0_trial_version.exe.
    PSE5 should be able to find your catalog and you can convert it into PSE5.
    If that doesn't work, it may be because you weren't able to run  "reconnect
    all missing files" in PSA3.2 before attempting the conversion.   If all your
    photos were still connected, this should work.  Then you can open PSE8 and
    convert PSE5 into PSE8.  Do a "reconnect all missing files" in PSE5 before
    you do the conversion.  Even though all my files were connected when I
    converted PSA2 into PSE5, PSE5 had about 30 unconnected photos.
    Good luck!

  • Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition  vs.  Picasa?

    Hi everyone..
    I have just installed Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 and I'm wondering about a few things. Bear with me here...
    1. I use Piccasa strictly as a picture-viewer program. I'm not 100% happy with it, could anybody pursuade me and my curious friend, why I should switch to Album Starter? I would like that.
    2. What I DO like about Piccasa is that it just view my pictures and do not copy them into a special piccasa-format. I have several file-formats in my picture-folder and I would like Album Starter to view all of them without changing the original location of the file, nor copy it, taking up a lot of disk-space.
    3. Another thing I like about Picasa is that if I have changed, added or removed a picture in the original file-location it updates those changes when I launch the program.
    4. I understand that there are several ways to view your photos. But can you also view and navigate your pictures through folders while you are in Album Starter? Because thats one thing I hate about Picasa, it just place all my folders on the side of the page, meaning it takes them out of their original folder and destroys the dept-folder-system I have made.
    5. Does Album Starter have a nice search function?
    If anyone could take the time to answer these very bad formulated questions, I would be very grateful.
    - C.C.

    1) PSA SE has better organizing tools [tags/collections] than Picassa. There is also a clear growth path if you want something more powerful [Photoshop Elements Organizer is compatible].
    2) With PSA SE you keep your image files anywhere you want.
    3) PSA SE has limitations in this area. You are encouraged to move files about from within the program.
    4) I'm not sure that you'd prefer PSA SE in this respect. You are really encouraged not to think in terms of folders, as that is not a way to organize a large collection of images [say much more than 100].
    5) It has various ways to search - what are you after? Using tagging intelligently means you very rarely need to search. [I have use this technology for 3 years and only used Search a handful of time.]

    Starter Edition Answer

    It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
    If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
    The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
    Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
    If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
    Hope those tips help!

  • Lost Photos in Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2

    My email stated that my photos were transfered to Revel. Only one photo switched. The rest are stuck at Adobe Photoshop Album starter edition 3.2. I can see my photos are sitting there but are stuck behind the product registeration looking for a product unlock code. This product stopped being supported in 2009. So, I have no unlock code. I was able to access my photos in the beginning of May but now that it transfered to Revel, they are being held hostage.

    Files were only copied from Photoshop.com to Revel, not from any other place. You may try this link to see if you can unlock your other files, and then you can upload them to Revel from your hard drive:

  • After registering on the album starter Edition 3.0, I am getting an error message saying that windows internet explorer cannot find the website, to make sure the path or internet address is correct.  when i click ok, it all goes away, adobe and all.  Help

    I called tech support that switched me to customer care and after over half an hour on the phone, they told me to look it up in the forums.  If you have any words of wisdom, I would love to hear them now.  I guess I have to get through this registering phase to obtain the unlock code.  I am surprised at how faulty this step is.  I expected more from Adobe.
    Please help!!!  Thanks.  Lisa

    You need to update your starter edition 3.0 to a 3.2 edition. Go to www.adobe.com, click on "Downloads" then "updates", continue to look under "Product updates" and scroll down to "Photoshop Elements". Now you need to download the Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. This update will automatically remove your 3.0 edition, and your photos will be accessible in the 3.2 edition. Now you can register again. Good Luck!

    I have a similar problem with my new iphone 4, but I never had the problem with my previous iphone 3g.
    Your post seems promising. However, you say ''right click on the APD icon in the system tray (it must be resembling a small camera) and select disable''. Unfortunatlely I don't know where to find '' the system tray''. Control Panel has a system folder but I can't find any access to an icon resembling a camera. Also, I am used to using Adobe Photoshop downloader. Since it worked with my previous iphone, can't it be made to work with the iphone 4?
