How to migrate Photoshop Elements Organizer from MacOS to Windows?

I have been using PSE Organizer for a long time now; started on Windows.  When v9 arrived with near identical functionality and user interface between Windows and Mac, it took the risk to migrate from a stable Windows environment to MacOS.  This served a certain purpose, but proved to not be the ideal situation.  I currently have over 21k pictures (most now also on Adobe Revel).  I an staying with Organizer because, I believe, it is the best photo "organizer" out there.
Challenge:  source is all on a Mac, back-up is on Revel, and I want to move PSE Organizer from Mac to Win, without having to start tagging all over again.
Questions:
1) Can this be done?
2) How can I do this while keeping all my tags and categories, as well as sync with Revel?
Addressing this will finalize my upgrade to v11.
Thank you in advance for ideas, suggestions, expertise and experience.

Please find my comments inline with the question:
1) Can this be done? : Yes this can definately be done. To do this you need to take backup on Mac and restore on Mac. This will ensure all media,tag,album and their association remaining intact. For details on how to, please refer: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/elementsorganizer/using/WS3d021fd412237a2f14afb0171392eec10c6- 7ffe.html
2). For sync with Revel: Elements Organizer11, provides you to import/export media to/fro Revel client (on both Win and Mac). I would suggest to downaload a trial version and see for yourself if it suits your purpose.
Please let me know if you need more info on it.

  • How to migrate Photoshop Elements data from a PC Elements V9 to a Mac Elements V11?

    Migrating from a PC to a Mac and want to continue with Photoshop Elements.  How do I get the data moved from the PC to the Mac (V9 to V11) so that Elements will recognize and use the previous information (photos, files, etc.)?

    Do a full backup to a removable drive in windows using the organizer command, then restore to the mac. Look for the .tly file in the backup folder. According to adobe, catalogs from PSE 9 onwards can be moved cross platform this way.

  • Is there an instruction sheet detailing how to install Photoshop Elements 13 (from a DVD disk), on a Windows 8.1 computer, and if so, where do I find it

    Is there an instruction sheet detailing how to install Photoshop Elements 13 (from a DVD disk), on a Windows 8.1 computer, and if so, where do I find it?

    Googled for an instruction sheet.  Got the following.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/getting-started/install-pse.html
    and
    https;//helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-installation-errors.html
    (Don't know why the second one didn't turn into a link, that's the url that printed out at the bottom of the page)
    In any case it doesn't matter.  I returned it to the store where I bought it.
    Rule #1; Don't use a product if the people who produce that product (software, hardware, etc.) don't properly support it.
    User forums and\or chat lines, are useful and may help.  But!  They do not constitute proper support (not for installation purposes anyway).

  • What is new in Photoshop elements organizer

    Are there any changes to the photoshop elements organizer from version 8 to 9

    I agree.  In some ways it is a real step backward.  I would not recommend "upgrading" to
    PSE9 based on one day of working with it.  Lost the ability to see all files in folder view and it is
    EXTREMELY SLOW.
    I really wish I hadn't changed to PSE9 and converted my catalog, which it didn't fully convert properly.
    Stay away from this upgrade!

    I got photoshop elements 12 from apple app store, after launch , no organize (album). How do I import , export pictures?

    Did you buy the Editor only version? Here's the product comparison - Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 - Buying guide.
    [EDIT] Actually it seems you can ONLY buy the Editor only version via the App Store. Here's an explanation why (scroll down to the fourth section) - Purchases through Mac App Store FAQ.[/EDIT]

  • Due to Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer I uninstalled the program.  When I re-installed Photoshop Elements 12 on the same computer the "Photoshop Elements 12.0.exe" file is not available.  I have tried loading Photoshop Elements 12 from the Adobe web site

    Due to Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer I uninstalled the program.  When I re-installed Photoshop Elements 12 on the same computer the "Photoshop Elements 12.0.exe" file is not available.  I have tried loading Photoshop Elements 12 from the Adobe web site without success.

    The Elements 12 shortcut can't find the Elements12.0.exe file so the program will not load.  I can load the editor from its .exe file but not the organizer.

  • How do I transfer my photoshop elements 11 from my pc to my mac?

    How do I transfer my Photoshop Elements 11 from my pc to my mac?  If I try to download it off the website, it wants my to download Photoshop Elements 12 which doesn't recognize my seriel number.  I don't want to buy Photoshop Elements 12.  I want to use my Photoshope Elements 11.

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com

  • I want to transfer photoshop elements 6 from my old computer to my new computer.  I have the serial number.  How do I do this?

    I want to transfer photoshop elements 6 from my old computer to my new computer.  I have the serial number.  How do I do this?

    If you have a CD for your product (I assume that is where you got the serial number from!!) then you can insert it in the drive on your new machine and install it in the usual way.
    If the new machine hasn't got a CD/DVD drive then you can use another machine and copy the contents of the CD to a flash drive and use the USB port on the new machine to install the product.
    Of course you can buy an external DVD drive and use it as well if that is what you want to do.
    If, however, you don't have a CD for your product then I am afraid it is difficult to download it from Adobe website.
