MAC PSE 8 upgrade to 10 issue

I've searched and not found the answer I'm searching for. I called Adobe Sales who said to upgrade to 10 to stop me from having to redo all my near 20K images again in LR.
What I want to do: I have been using BR on my MAC for some time now. My Sony SLT-33 RAW files don't show preview or keep some of the metadata due to it not being recognized in BR CS4 CR5.7. And in LR of course when I import an image now all the metadata doesn't show up on RAW files, but does on JPEGs and of course I want to import just RAW. Adobe told me to upgrade to Elements 10 that has my camera info in, so I installed a trial version. I was told when I install it a screen will pop up for me to bring everything from BR w/all info, favorites, folders, ratings, etc. and to view RAW files. I didn't get the screen and this isn't BR but Organinzer which I've never used.
How do I bring the library/catalog from BR over into Organizer? If I cannot do this, I will have to redo all 20K and if that's the case might as well skip PSE10 (next year will be getting PS CSx) and do it over again in LR (which will take months!).
Thanks in advance for anyone's advise on saving me loads of time!

Yes I know it would still be the same in 10 using BR, but I'm transferring over to LR anyways and just uninstalled 10s trial version.
When I called Adobe yet one more time, I finally got a knowledgeable person. He said unfortunately that I will have to imput all data again once cataloged in LR (Lightroom) and after answering some other questions he had, I was told since I didn't use Elements, that LR will do all I need until I get PS CS.x next year.
Again thanks so much for your time!

  • PSE 8 upgrade album conversion issue

    I upgraded my system to Windows 7 and since I was going to have to reload everything anyway, I upgraded to PSE 8 at the same time.
    Before the upgrade I saved my catalog files to my external drive and then moved them back to the C:\Program Files\Adobe folder  I put it there because I didn't see a catalog folder under the Elements Organizer folder
    Anyway, I then converted my catalog - renamed it "My Catalog 7.0" to differentiate
    The conversion says it was good and upon inspection all meta tags and albums seem okay.  The issue is that it didn't bring in the images from May 2009 onward.  I know those were in the catalog in 7.0 and had tags on them.
    Any sggestions on how to get those images (with their metadata) into PSE 8.0?
    Susan

    Thanks John
    You were right, I pulled the wrong file to convert (the one I used to convert 6 to 7)
    Thankfully I had a back up and was able to restore my correct 7 catalog.  All is good now.

    hi, we are using mac mini's for our developement purpose. connecting the same through using Real VNC. Mac mini's are late 2009 and 2010. Now we have upgraded them to 10.8.5. after upgrading having display issues after launching the simulators, we are unable to view the icons we need to move the simulator (into different places) to view the icons.
    Also we are having Mac book pro's (Late 2009 & 2010) after upgrading them to 10.8.5. Unable to launch the mac, getting only white screen with apple icon.
    Let me know is there any specific Hardware (Graphic Cards) we need to use for the same.
    Please provide me the early solutions.
    Regards,
    Suresh.

    Hi, try this first...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

  • How can i fix Connection issues with back to my mac since yosemite upgrade.

    Ok I have been having nothing but problems with back to my mac since the upgrade. both machines are using yosemite and I have even reinstalled yosemite on both still having connection issues. anyone else know how I can fix this? I get one of 2 error messages one that says there is a problem connecting and i should make sure screen sharing is active and then another that says the server does not exist. So far to get it working it involves restarting back to my mac or both macs. This is not a good fix since once I disconnect and try to reconnect a few hours later it does it all over again. I am currently in France and needless to say my parents are starting to get really annoyed with constantly having to do things on there end so I can remote into my iMac.Before the yosemite upgrade I maybe had to do this once or twice.

    What I have done is open Disk Utility, Repair Permissions, and do that more than once if it returns a lot of errors in the permissions.  Then Restart the Mac.
    Also, go to System Preferences > Spotlight and try turning off a couple settings such as search suggestions...these things are taking a lot of resources now.

  • PSE 11 and PS CC issues with import/open and saving

    Good afternoon,
    I have had PSE 11 for several months but have hardly touched it due to two problems. When I try to import images into the organizer, if I choose any location other than the default that opens, the whole program freezes and I have to force quit to get out of it. I have been able to open files by going to      File - get photos and videos - by searching....When I can get them, they load at snail speed. I've done a few projects and when I go to save, I have the same issue. This has caused me to loose several projects as again, the whole program freezes and I have to force quit.
    I just signed up for the photographer's black Friday deal and downloaded PS. I am having the same issue. If I go to open a file in PS and choose anywhere other than the default location, the box closes immediately and I can't get anything to open. Thankfully, the program doesn't freeze up like PSE 11, but this is so frustrating. I have Lightroom and have issues there too. What is going on!
    Thanks
    JP

    I am having a similar issue with photoshop CC. I am on a mac and just upgraded to maverick (
    OS X 10.9 (13A603)) and since the update any time I want to open or place a file it closes the window.
    Something worse happened on windows 8.1 when I upgraded that OS Illustrator and photoshop just crashed once it was open. I had to uninstall and reinstall both applications and it worked.
    I tried the same thing on the mac and uninstalled photoshop, then reinstalled it but I that did not resolve the issue. I have a video of what it is doing. The two workarounds I found was to drag the images into photoshop or create a new file then go to file open which you will see in the video.
    If there is a fix for this please let me know, it is very frustrating!
    Regards

  • Hi i upgrade from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am getting no sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever

    Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
    I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.

    Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.

  • Will Mac OS 10.5 resolve my issues?

    I'm new to Mac and I've just purchased an iBook G4 w/ Mac OS 10.4.11. I purchased it in order to catalog music for deejaying purposes. I want to download and use LimeWire. But during installation I keep getting a message that I need Java 10.6 (or newer version of Mac OS X).
    Will the upgrade to Mac OS 10.5 resolve this issue = truly be worth the additional cost? Or should I go with 10.6?

  • Mac Snow Leopard upgrade =  no more shared review?

    Hi, we are having a problem with shared review as we upgrade to Snow Leopard.
    Most of us here are using Macs with Acrobat (some 8, some 9), a few on the network are using Windows with Reader.  We use the  'send for shared review' feature on our own network.
    Some of we Mac users have upgraded to Snow Leopard,  OSX 10.6.1. When we do so, we cannot connect to the SMB server we are using for 'send for shared review' via Acrobat.
    That is, we can access the server and open the PDF fine, but we cannot do a shared review (see attached).  We have used this great feature for a year and now we are locked out.
    The 'permissions' on the server have not changed. We've updated our copies of Acrobat. Could it be a Mac Snow Leopard incompatibility? Have you heard of this before?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    I have the same issues under regular Leopard (10.5), and running Acrobat 9.2
    I have found that if you mount the drive using the servers IP address, and set up the review server using the IP address the review system will work. This solution also requires the clents to mount the volumes using the IP address as well.
    Are you running under a domain?

    i purchased 2 books for my iPad and they downloaded successfully.  They show up in iTunes when my iPad is connected to my Mac but do not show up on the Mac.  Is this a synch issue?  When I click the Synch box I am warned that downloads on my iPad will be erased.  Is that true?  My ultimate goad is to be able to read the books on my iPhone as well.  Thanks.

    You should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the iPhone (or you could re-download them directly on the iPhone)

  • My brand new mac pro always had Internet connection issues at school. WHY is that? I see the school's Internet working perfectly fine on other PC's, but there is never a day where my mac doesn't have Internet connection issues at school. How do I fix it?

    I got my mac pro in the middle of August. School started the week after. Internet was working perfectly fine at home. But at school, I never had a good connection. Sometimes on the good days I get a connection when I'm sitting at the exact spot in class I always sit at. It's ridiculous and it's frustrating. I invested my money into this laptop and I'm beginning to regret it. I thought it was the school's Internet, but I don't see Internet issues with other PC users. It's most frustrating on registration days and I'm trying to register for my classes before it gets taken, but again... Internet connection issues. It's random. Majority of the time, it doesn't work at all. I've done Network Diagnosis and turning WiFi off then turning it on again. I've done everything I could. I put my money on this laptop and it was a lot of money. I could have bought an 800 dollars laptop and I would have Internet connection anywhere on campus. So, I don't want to continue everyday to regret on buying this laptop every time I try to connect to the Internet at school or Starbucks or anywhere else. How do I fix this? What's the problem ?
    At school, I heard this guy had a problem with Internet connections too and he owned a new mac book pro. He said something like Apple messed up on something, but he fixed it. If I knew mac book pro's had these issues I wouldn't have bought it in the first place. It's freezing on me every other day. It's ridiculous. But what concerns me the most is the Internet connection. So someone please tell me what can I do next to prevent the problem? Am I doing something wrong maybe?

    Hi Kevin,
    I'm using an XLR input mic which is connected to the phantom power enabled XLR mic socket on a USB M-Audio M-Track. The M-Track is connected by USB to the Mac Pro - so effectively I've got an M-Audio USB soundcard with a mic input.  I've also tried a microphone that is a straight XLR to USB cable (guessing with some soundcard chip buried in the usb plug) but that also yields the same effect of bad latency, intermittent quality, stuttering and repeating and echoing (without the speakers on during record so its not feedback).
    The mic works absolutely fine with other recording applications I have on the mac at the moment - albeit non-adobe ones (tested it on the EasyAudioRecorder - and it lives up to its name. it's easy)
    I will try with Audition and report back, but sitting here right now I can imagine it would work fine with audition too - it just seems to be the way premiere is set up for recording into the timeline is a bit sketchy.  I'm willing to accept it might well be a quirk with the new Mac Pro trashcan - I'm not weighting all the woes on premiere.
    Any thoughts or am I out of luck to sit with my fingers crossed for a fix in the next round of updates?
    Nathan.

    I'm using a Mac.  I "upgraded" to LR5 from LR4.  I do not want to be a member of the "Creative Cloud".  I just want to use the software I purchased, specifically to upload to my SmugMug account.  Is there a way to use an add-on to do this?  Aperture and LR4 were easy but I'm finding it impossible without subscribing to CC.

    Sorry, maybe I don't understand, but why do you feel compelled to subscribe to CC if you already have a permanent Lightroom 5 licence?
    For the SmugMug plugin, a simple Google search ("smugmug lightroom plugin") gives this link to download the plugin:  http://help.smugmug.com/customer/portal/articles/121321
    Another way is to click the button "Find more services online..." in the the Publish Service section of Lightroom, and to search for SmugMug in the Adobe Add-ons portal; you will find a link to the latest plugin: https://creative.adobe.com/addons/products/1755

  • Firmware upgrade encountered an issue

    Right now my Galaxy S3 is sitting at a screen that states "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.  Please use Software Repair Assistant & try again."  Whenever I power on my phone, I get that message.  I've tried to do an Emergency Recovery in both Kies and Kies 3, but neither are able to recover, and the only way, it seems, to get the SRA is to plug my phone into my PC and get it from Autorun.  Since my phone is not leaving the error screen, I don't get the auto run option to install the SRA.  Is there any way to download it manually to get my phone running, or is it pretty much bricked and I'll have to look at replacement options?

    I found a solution on the XDA forums site, but thanks anyway.  Looks like I just needed to run the Software Repair Assistant, which I'm a little surprised that the Verizon store I went to didn't have it on hand to attempt to fix my phone.  I got my device repaired, and it's working great.  Just really wish my Wiimotes worked in Android 4.3. 

  • Which Mac should I upgrade to if I am a Photoshop, Illustrator, and Indesign user, with a little iMovie thrown in?

    I've been using a 24" iMac (originally purchased in mid-2006) to do graphic design with Adobe Creative Cloud, primarily Photoshop, Indesign, and Illustrator. I am also starting to do some very ametuer video prep (like iMovie) etc. With just Photoshop and Indesign alone, what is the minimum Mac I should upgrade to, if I am still concerned about performance, but budget and mobility could come into play too? For instance would the 13.3" Mac Book Pro with Intel Graphics be sufficient for doing my usual print design, with a little iMovie thrown in? At that price, I could afford a big display to plug into when I am at my office desk.
    I like the idea of mobility (which I haven't had before with the big iMac), but don't want to notice a horrible lag in performance if I get a weaker machine. The guy at PeachMac said that when it came to display the Retina (in the Macbook Pro, 13.3 in edition) made a high difference despite the lack of a dedicated graphics processor. I don't do heavy-duty, memory-intensive graphics work but about once every two years anyway, and my iMac only has 2GB of RAM to begin with. I just want to make sure that true designers who have switched from older iMac machines to Macbook Pro's (not the most expensive models) didn't regret it when trying to run Photoshop, et al.
    (My absolute budget is "no more than $2,000" which is why I am considering the new iMac vs. the MacBook Pro 13.3" and getting a nice external display.)
    Thanks!

    To run the new Studio you need Leopard and it will not spec'd to run on Tiger (Leopard 10.5.6 [specs here|http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/specs>) I have run it in Leopard and Snow Leopard, and both seem fairly similar, though I generally like my Leopard machines a bit more. Still breaking in the Snow Leopard and getting various kinks out of it. It seems I have some more little things go wrong in Snow Leopard.
    Overall I like the upgrades in the Studio and you may just want to make another boot drive with clean Snow Leopard and the new Studio to work with until you feel you are happy with how it is performing. Bascially that is what I do until I am fully comfortable with the system and always have my rollback plan in place in case something goes awry and I need to get things done....
