Do I need PSE Catalog to re-install after upgrade to Win 8.1?

I was running PSE 11 on Win 7.
I did a PSE backup.
Upgraded from Win 7 to Win 8.1.
Reinstalled PSE 11.
But I haven't started the app yet.
All of my photos are in the correct folders.
I have the PSE backup.
What do I do next? If I start PSE can I get it to rebuild a new catalog by using the info in the backup?
Or is there a better approach?
I only use one catalog. I have about 9,000 pictures in it.
Thanks for any help or advice.

In the newly reinstalled PSE, open the organizer, use the catalog manager (menu File / catalogs...) and see if you have one or several catalogs; a new empty 'My catalog' may have been created, but the old one may still be there in the same default location.
If that does not work, after setting the explorer to show hidden folders, do an explorer search for files named : catalog.pse11db. You may find the old catalog if it has not been wiped in the Win update. Simply double click on that file which will open the organizer with the corresponding catalog.
If you don't find such files, in the catalog manager choose the 'restore backup' option and restore to original location and keeping the folder structure.

Ultranav won't install after upgrade to Win 7

I upgraded from XP to Win 7 Ultimate. When I try to install the Win 7-compliant driver from the Lenovo site, the OS tells me that it's not compliant and "fixes" the problem by installing generic drivers that, of course, don't allow me to modify the Ultranav settings. Any thoughts?

Hi PMS,
Please link to the driver file you tried to install and the name your system also. More information is always handy.

Do I need to update Bootcamp 3.3 after upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion?

Do I need to update Bootcamp 3.3 after upgrading directly from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion? If so, what is the recommended version for my machine?
Other pros and cons we should consider? Not sure what is considered best practice.
We have a mid-2011 iMac (12,1) running Win7 64bit. Concerned about firmware updates not being compatible with Bootcamp 3.3. Firmware updates forThunderbolt port were part of post-Mountain Lion updater install. Not sure what other firmware/boot changes might have been applied to support the new recovery partition, for example. Will the 3.3 windows control panel still work safely?
Win7 still boots OK, at least for now. Backup is current.
I'd like to get the entire machine current again. Bootcamp 5.0 didn't want to download (appeared to hang writing to my external drive, which is otherwise fine). Bootcamp 4.1 refused to install on Win7 (claimed it wasn't for my machine, so I aborted. Downloaded from apple support page directly).
I've searched the forums for this specific question - I see plenty of info for upgrading Bootcamp 4 to 5, but nothing for 3 to 5.
Thanks much in advance,
-b

Appreciate the quick response.
There are basically 2 schools of thought here:
- If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
- Don't fall off the upgrade cycle (apply patches whether you have an issue or not in order to ward off trouble before it happens).
I don't have a specific issue that I'm chasing on the Win7 side right now. I'm attempting to address having fallen off the upgrade cycle by staying on Snow Leopard too long.
I appreciate that the Win7 side under bootcamp is its own thing (upgrades to Mac OS don't cross over or effect the bootcamp partition) - except where firmware upgrades coming out of Mountain Lion change the hardware interface to Win7. Hence my questions.

Do I need to reinstall MS Office 2011 after upgrading to Mavericks ?

Hello,
I have mid 2011 Mac Air. Do I need to reinstall MS Office 2011 after upgrading to Mavericks ?
Curious to know before upgrading.

You will at least need to apply the update. I believe that can be done before upgrading to Mavericks. If you have trouble, then as Tony T1 says, uninstall fully then reinstall, but I have had no issues o any of my Macs. Update applied to all.

I've been using iTunes for about a year, no problem.

I have no idea what that message means and I need step by step directions on how to find out of perform whatever that message means.

Can't launch LR catalog on external drive after upgrading to LR 4.

Today I realized I was using LR3 instead of the LR4 upgrade. I quit LR3 and launched LR4. (Note: I did upgrade the catalog when I installed LR4.) The catalog opened just fine, but I noticed that edits and some library additions I had made while back in LR 3 were missing. I quit LR4. Relaunched my computer. Now I can't open my catalog in either LR3 or 4. The catalog is on an external hard drive. I'm getting the message "Lightroom cannot launch with this catalog. It is either on a network volume or on a volume on which Lightroom cannot save changes." I am not on a network. The external drive is attached to my desktop Mac. I have been launching with the catalog on the hard drive for over a year. I am at a loss to solve this. Help. I need to get to my pictures.

Okay I fixed my own problem. I quit everything again and restarted my computer again. This time LR launched okay. I went back to LR3 and found I was using an older catalog. Then I quite that, relaunched LR4, selected the older catalog, and checked the box that says "upgrade again". I let this run and got a catalog with a new version number. The library is now in synch and I am happy again.

No audio device installed after upgrading to windows 7???

after upgrading to windows 7 audio is not working error audio device not install driver error...

Hi,
You will need to identify your CPU and chipset. CPU-z is a free and safe utility that can do that for you.
If your system has an Intel chipset with disccrete or onboard graphics or an NVIDIA chipset with onboard graphics, then the drivers are here at this Realtek download page.
If your notebook is an AMD CPU and NVIDIA chipset, with a discrete graphics module installed, then the driver for your Conexant CX20549-12 will be here.
Post you results here in your thread so others rsearching for the same information can benefit from it.
Best regards,

Wi-Fi: Nohardware installed after upgrading to OS X Yosemite on a MacBook Air

My MacBook Air lost the WiFi installation after upgrading to OS X Yosemite. The error message is: Wi-Fi: No hardware install.

In some cases, this issue is caused by a hardware fault. A loose connection, a short circuit, or a microscopic break in a solder joint may open and close depending on temperature, making the failure intermittent.
Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already taken. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Turn off Bluetooth. If you have a desktop Mac, you'll need a wired keyboard and mouse to take this step. Those are useful to have anyway, because Bluetooth is not completely reliable. If Wi-Fi works with Bluetooth turned off but not when you turn it back on, delete all pairings in the Bluetooth preference pane and recreate them. Restart the computer and test again.
2.. There are a few reports that the problem was solved by unchecking the box marked
Wake for Wi-Fi network access
in the Power Adapter tab of the Energy Saver preference pane. I can't confirm.
3. Reset the NVRAM.
4. Reset the System Management Controller.
5. Start up in Recovery mode. In the menu bar of the OS X Utilities screen, there's a Wi-Fi menu. Try to connect.
6. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

After upgrading from win 7 - win 8, do I really need the win 7 recovery partition?

Hello.
I'm a happy camper after upgrading my HP Spectre XT from win 7 to win 8 (Win 8 upgrade offer). The 128GB SSD disks just makes everything so smooth and fast.
However I am abit annoyed with the Win 7 recovery partition that still uses 20 GB of my total 128GB space.
I have tried searching the forums, as well as the www for any good answers, but I end up more confused.
So I am asking the community some questions that interests me, and hopefully you can provide me with some meaningsful answers
1. Can I now delete my win 7 recovery partition, and if so what is the most effiecient and safe way to do it?
2. Is there a a good way to make sure that if (heaven forbid) something would happen, I still would be able to recover my notebook preferably to win 8, and not the preinstalled OEM win 7?
3. Of course the Spectre XT has no optical drive, so if its doable I might need to make an win 8 recovery partition in the end. Is it possible?

You can use Windows builtin Disk Management to delete the partition, or EaseUS software. Both procedures are outlined at EaseUS site:
http://www.partition-tool.com/resource/windows-8-partition-manager/delete-windows-8-partition.htm
As for a Recovery option after deleting, look at System Imaging which is builtin Windows 8 also.You need an external USB hdd for this.

I think i have isolated the problem to themes.
This phenomen only appears i i install a theme on the massmemory.
So by uninstall them and install them again on the phone memory solved this for me.

Failed install after upgrade

I posted this in the Software Update forum but got no answer there...
Just updated my n73 to v3.0638.0.0.1 - thanks guys! - and am having an odd issue on restarting the phone.
I get an install bar and then a message asking me to complete the installation from Apps Manager.
Looking in Apps manager there is an "uninstalled" App called 20000d45.sis on the memory card. Clicking this and choosing to install then calls up the MobiPocket reader installer, which fails shortly after the bar finishes.
So problem identified. Mobipocket doesn't like the new update. Fair enough.
How do I stop it trying to install after every restart!
There seems to be no way to delete the installer from inside App Manger!
Whilst I have found related files on the Memory Card that I can delete, this seems to not help. The files still show on the phone.
Any tips?

Just connect it to the PC via USB Mode.There ya will see a drive of n73 on yar PC then open the drive and then direct go to Search option here ya will see dat 2000 or something like dat and then just delete it.I bet ya will never face any trouble like dis thing.
It not related wit da update program each time ya Hard reset update software without uninstalling the applications it will happen.So do it carefully.
O yeah at first I was so scared of ds type of problem but now it is very simple thing to me.
Last thing,Connecting N(73,80,91) via USB Mode and tranferring data in the N73 is more safe and less problematic than to do it with the damn PC Suit

Task Sequence packages not installing after upgrade to R2

Hi all
As the title suggests, I've upgraded my SCCM 2012 server from SP1 to R2. The OSD Task Sequences reach the stage where the client is installed, and ends after this point. However there are several software packages after this step that it is seemingly skipping
entirely now.
Any idea why this might be?
Thanks

Ok,
After banging my head for a few days with that issue i saw the light at the end of the tunnel ( an not the
train) today.
Long story short, the culprit was the boot image. I upgraded to 6.3 and everything in my TSs is working as
it should.
Here are the details:
The recall my issue, after upgrading SCCM from SP1 to R2, none of the software packages were getting installed
in a Task sequence. A TS runs up to the installation of the SCCM agent and then it quits.
Looking at the log file in C:\Windows\System32\ccm\logs\smstslog I found the following errors:
Resuming Task Sequence in Full OS TSMBootstrap
Failed to get the environment key. TSMBootstrap
Failed to resume task sequence (0x800700EA).
Exiting with return code 0x800700EA TSMBootstrap
Earlier i mentioned that my boot images did not get updated as part of the site upgraded, so i went and updated
them to version 6.3 and after making sure it got deployed in a TS to make it available through PXE, my problem was gone.
this post helped me tremendously to realized that the boot image was the issue:

What programs need re-installing after upgrade to Mavericks?

Hi.
I'm new to Mac, currently running OSX 10.7.5 Lion with Parallels 9 - intending to upgrade to Maverick.
I'm aware that files should be backed up onto ext. source before backup but ..
Will the upgrade take out Parallels and associated Windows files/programs.
Will it take out files such as Office for Mac 2011 or am I being a little overcatious?

Parallels or Boot Camp does not matter. The same answer holds. If you want the best chance of success, I would encourage the following:
Follow proper upgrade practices;
Remove all third-party peripherals.
Repair your hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
Backup your computer to an external drive.
Be sure you have at least 20 GBs of free space on your hard drive.
Download the Mavericks installer application.
Upon completion do not run the installer, but quit the installer.
Make a copy of the installer in your Downloads folder before you proceed with installing.
Make a bootable flash drive installer.
Install Mavericks on your computer.
Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
1. After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
3. Use DiskMaker X to put your installer clone onto the USB flash drive.
Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.
My personal recommendation is that you backup your computer after making the flash drive installer, then boot from the flash drive installer, erase your hard drive, and install Mavericks. Test the system out thoroughly until you are satisfied it's working properly for you. Then restore your data from the backup you made.
