I lost my hard drive and my backup drives. I paid to have my hard drive recovered to a new external drive. I have purchased a new PC and reinstalled Photshop Elements 7.0. I recovered my pictures. How can I copy my catalog files from the data they restored for me to my new PC? What are the files I need to copy and where are they? I have 7 years worth of data. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you! It worked. In my first attempt, I went to the wrong location and copied my old Catalog from Version 5 of Photoshop Elements. I read all of the instructions carefully this morning, and discovered that Version 7 stored the Catalog in a different location. Therefore I went to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\ Photoshop Elements \Catalogs\My Catalog and copied everything in My Catalog, on my recovered drive, to the same location on my new PC. I opened Photoshop Elements 7, and it worked. All of my Catalog entries, Tags, etc. were there. Case closed. It is easy when you do it right. Thanks again. This is my first experience using a forum and it was a life saver.
One other mistake I made was choosing a different account name on my new PC. Because the account name is part of the path, for example C:\Documents and Settings\Karl Johnson\My Documents\My Pictures, I had to go back to my old account name. (I thought I would shorten it from Karl Johnson to Karl but I had to change it back.) -
How can I backup my iPad to another iPad backup I have on my same iCloud account. The old one is totally gone. Both backups are listed on my iCloud account. So is there any way I can backup the one I have now to the other one. I really just want the pictures that are in the old backup. I have tried resetting and erasing all settings and data on the one I still have, but when I go to restore by iCloud; it only gives me the choice of restoring the same iPad. Then in iCloud>storage>backup, I'm still not able to choose which backup to backup to. I've even tried deleting the backup to the iPad I still have, then resetting all setting and data on the iPad, hoping that in resetting up the iPad it would give me the option to backup to my old iPad. But it doesn't. It still has memory of the backup of my newer iPad.
I JUST WANT THE PICTURES!!!
Thank you!!!
iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 6.1.3, iCloud BackupYou now need to get your pictures back! The similar to you, after I updated my iPad Mini, I can't get my some files on device.

How can I make different catalogs from the same image
How can I make different catalogs from the same image where that image has been changed in some way between the catalogs. For instance if I wanted to have a catalogs for cropped images and have 3 catalogs one for 4x6 , 5x7 and 8x10 cropping. When I tried this , if I changed a file in one catalog that same image in the other would change also.
Do not confuse the creation of the crops and the display in collections per crop ratio.
Of course one virtual copy (VC) per crop ratio is needed. If the same image should be cropped in all 3 mentioned ratios there would be 3 VCs.
The OP asked how to have/see a set of same-crop-ratios.
After having created the virtual copies for whatever crop ratio he wants, the way to display this result in the fashion asked for is via smart collections, provided they can be found. Without a plugin the naming of the VC with the crop ratio applied is a straight way to achieve that.
IF the wish is to get new crops automatically added. (See my answers 2+3)
IF the wish is to creat static collections per crop ratio for a certain set of images, I'd go as follows:
1. Select all images you want to have cropped in that way,.
2. With this selection click on the + to add another collection and fill the dialog box like this:
Then navigate into this newly created selection and perform the 4x6 crop - according to taste individually or by synchronizing the first crop.

My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?
What you need to do is temporarily set up your new 4. Just long enough to update the operating system. Then you can erase all content and settings - which puts it back to its out of box state, then set it up again, this time restoring it from the backup of your two.
So, using the same Apple ID on both - just to keep things easy - set up your 4. Just basically choose 'set up as new' to activate it, then immediately update the iOS to 7.1.2.
then erase all content and settings, which puts it back to 'llike new'...but the operating system will not reset, it'll remain 7.1.2
Then set it up again, this time choosing to 'restore from the backup' of your 2 and your 4 will be a near clone of your two. -

I want to upgrade iOS from 5 to 6, but when I go to synch everything in preparation, it tells me I will lose all my stuff on the iPhone and iPad which is/are unique. How can I backup or do a "real synch" (both sides have same data at end of process) and then upgrade?
You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer. -
How can I backup my iphone 4 using iTunes 9.1.1? Is there a workaround for this?
How can I backup my iphone 4 using iTunes 9.1.1? Is there a workaround for this? I need to backup my phone for replacement but it tells me I need 10.1 or later. All software is up to date, Operating system is 10.4.11. Thanks!
No sorry. You need to upgrade to v10.5 Leopard (minimum) in order to sync an iPhone 4.
iPhone minimum requirements:
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 10.1 or later
iTunes Store account
Internet access
You can upgrade to Leopard if your Mac meets v10.5 requirements.
Requirements for Mac OS X v10.5
If your Mac is Intel, you can upgrade directly to Snow Leopard if your Mac meets 10.6 Snow Leopard - Technical Specifications -
How can I backup my MacBook Pro to an external hard drive
How can I backup my MacBook Pro to an external hard drive?
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
1. Cool Drives
2. OWC
3. WiebeTech
4. Firewire Direct
5. California Drives
6. NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver. -
How can i backup Address Book & iCal using TM?
How can i backup Address Book & iCal using TM?
just back up your whole computer and those things will be backed up along with everything else. Time Machine is not well suited for cherrypicking just a few things to back up and it's a bad idea anyway. if you insist on backing up just those two things back up homedirectory/library/application support/address book and homdirectory/library/calendars.
