How do I update my old Organizer catalog for a new version of the program?

When you install a new versiobn of the program and start the Organizer, it will usually give you a pop-up asking if you want to convert the catalog from a previous version. However, if that tool doesn't automatically launch, contributor Barb O offers this manual solution:
Go to File menu Catalog command and you will see a button for Convert. Click that convert button to start the catalog conversion process manually.
Note that IF you have more than one catalog, each one converts separately.
BEFORE you start your new program, go to your old Organizer's catalog and select:
-- Catalog > Repair
-- File > Reconnect > All Missing Files
-- Catalog > Repair (again)
The logic here is that a "cleaned up" prior version catalog is less likely to have problems during the upgrade process.

I recommend you ask that in the PSE forum. I'm sure there is some import/ export hocuspocus involved...

  • HT4137 I want to prompt a backup from a newer iphone to an older phone and it is saying that the iOS is not compatible. How can I update my old device so that I can restore with the latest backup?

    I am trying to restore information on an older Iphone and am running into the difficulty of restoring my backup. The backup says its incompatible with the iOS on the old phone so it will not let me choose the latest iphone backup. Is there a way to update my old iPhone before I restore that backup? I already have tried to sync it with the latest version of ITunes. I am nervous to restore to an older backup in case the newer backup will not show up again.

    What you have to first do is update your old phone using iTunes. Once done: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to use that backup.

  • How can I sync my old music library in my new nano to the new library???

    CAN'T COMBINE MUSIC LIBRARIES: 
    Got a new 6th gen nano.  X-ferred my old music lib to new nano.  Gave my old nano to my hubs and he erased most of the music and added his own.(so, he has the same name for the old nano that I was using)  Now, when I try to add more music to my new nano, I get a message asking me if I want to erase all the music content and add the new stuff. Well, of course I do not want to do this as I have hundreds of songs in the old music library.  I also get a message saying that the old music lib is associated with a diff account name and I cannot have 2 music libs running on one iPod.  Can anyone tell me how I an get the two libs combined?  Do I need to back up the old music and add it to the new lib? Or, can I add the new music (only about 50 songs) to the old lib?  (the latter would be much easier, as it would take 10-12 CD's to store my old lib and much time burning the cd's. I naively thot that I could add music to the new nano under the same music lib as the old nano.  HELP!

  • How can I delete a old email account for my app's on the iPhone 4

    How can I delete a old email account from my iPhone 4 so when I go into my app's and download it don't bring up the old account

    Hi Shandra,
    You have to open iTunes -> click iTunes Store and login with the old email and then logout -> Now login with the new email that you want and connect your iPhone via USB to your computer and synchronize your iPhone with new email.
    I hope I've helped.

  • Possible to update from old iBooks Author file using new version?

    Will the just-released new version of iBooks Author allow me to update an existing book which was created with a previous version of the software?
    I created a book in landscape mode, but placed all of the images in portrait orientation. Now that there are portrait-only templates, I want to redo the book. Will I be able to replace my book on iBooks without having to relist it?
    The new iBooks Author description states the following: "And to keep your work current, add updates by publishing new versions of your original title. iBooks will automatically notify your readers that there’s a new version of your book ready to download."

    nanobear:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you still have the original library on our old Mac? If so, connect the two Macs together so you can manually copy the iPhoto Library folder from the old Mac into the Pictures folder of the new iMac. download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name in the owner section and Staff in the group section. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
    Now launch iPhoto and it should inform you that the library will need to be upgraded. Select OK and the library will be converted to the latest version.
    What version of iPhoto were you running on the old Mac?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How can I import my old iPhoto library into my new version of iPhoto?

    Just purchased new iMac and am trying to import my old iPhoto library, but keep getting Unreadable Files message. I have the library file and see that it shows up as an iPhoto Library under the Kind column.

    Now that you're tried to open the correct library once see if you can perfor the following:  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • HT1222 Can I update my Old iPod touch 4.2.1 version to the IOS 5 or 6? It says i have the current version but I can't get my apps ...such as Netflix

    I'm trying to get the iOS 5 or 6 update to my ipod touch version 4.2.1
    My ipod says it's up to date but I can't get my netflix app to load becuse it says I need the iOS 5 software
    Does this mean that my Ipod touch is no longer any good???
    Any help is appreciated, thanks!
    Candice

    I used to be able to get Netflix and other apps on my ipod but since they have been upgraded to ios 5 + I can no longer get them. "
    You updated your Netflix app without seeing if the new version was compatible with your ios version. Had you not updated, then you could still be using it.
    " So I gather by your response and other similar questions/answers that I am out of luck now."
    Yes.
    Sorry

  • How to specify "Layout Grid" or "Margin/Column" for a new doc in the Japanese version

    I am using the Japanese version of InDesign CS2.
    When you open a new document in the Japanese version,
    you can specify what kind of layout grid to use
    "Layout Grid" (traditional Japanese layout) or
    "Margin/Column" (normal English layout).
    How do you specify this in scripting?

  • Is there anyway to either trade in your old Macbook Pro for a new version, or get a new power cord when the old one has been damaged?

    Well i was just wondering.. since i do have a older version of the Macbook Pro.. and the fact that the power cord has been damaged

    You can always get a price on what an Apple affiliate would give you for your old MacBook Pro by going to http://www.apple.com/recycling/gift-card/faq.html and reading the instruction for the reuse program. Or you can sell your old one on eBay (that's what I did - you'll get more for it). Apple doesn't do a simple trade-in.
    Your cheapest route is just to buy a new adapter. If you don't know which adapter to get, call Apple and they can tell you, or visit your local Apple Store. They're about $80.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • TS1363 How can i update my old ipod and add my new one.

    I have had an older ipod nano and i just recently got a new one. How can i add my new ipod nano to my current itunes account or do i have to have a whole new one? If i do have to have a new account how can i get my songs that i have already purchased to the new nano? I am so confused.

    Connect the iPod nano to the computer the exact same way you set up the old one. You don't need to create another Apple ID, iTunes Store account, or iTunes library.
