How do I migrate a vs5 catalog to vs9 catalog?

This has been a comedy of errors. Received a new computer for Christmas with version 9 Elements loaded on it. My new computer has a new directory for photos than my old computer. Tried to migrate my version 5 catalog to the new computer and was thinking I could just reconnect my files, but when I did that they all show up as offline. Bring up properties and they show the old directory path from my old computer. Reconnecting did not work and re-indexing also did not fix the problem. Help!!!! I have of 6000 or more pictures that I will have to re-tag.
Also, how can I change the properties so that I can see the ribbon bar? The little arrow drop-down sucks.
Thanks,
Jeanne

Use back up & restore to move your catalog.

The missing ribbon is probably due dpi scaling.
Go to the control panel and check dpi scaling under Appearance or Display.
It’s not uncommon to see a setting of 125% or higher to improve screen readability but PSE9 requires a dpi of 96 or 100%
’t.
Whilst the Editor Menu will appear at 120% the Organizer Menu won
Try a setting of 115% or 116% otherwise 100%.

  • How do I migrate my LR2 catalog to LR3?

    Ok. I've upgraded LR2 to LR3 on my iMac.  Moving my LR2 catalog to LR3 was supposed to be easy, from what I've read, but I'm challenged. 
    I've got a bunch of folders on LR2 and can't seem to find their file counterpart when I select "import" and peruse the files listed.  I can see my photo file, but am concerned that if I select that file, LR3 will just migrate all the pictures, without the folders.  Can someone help?  Thanks.

    You should be able to just open your LR2 catalog with LR3 and it will do the conversion to the new format. No migration should be necessary.

  • How to migrate MULTIPLE PSE10 catalogs to another PC

    I have bought a new PC.
    On my old PC I have PSE 10 with three catalogs.
    To move these catalogs (with several thousands of photos), I have followed the instructions in the help page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
    So, I made backups of all three catalogs to an external disc.
    I then connected the external disc to the new PC and started to restore the first catalog.
    That went fine.
    Then I restored the second catalog.
    That also went fine.
    But then I discovered that the first catalog had disappeared....
    I expected that in the menu where you can switch catalog, both catalogs would be shown.
    But it only showed the last catalog that I restored.
    To make sure, I tried to restore the first catalog again.
    Again that went fine. But now only this catalog is there, and the other one is disappaered again.
    What am I doing wrong?
    How do you migrate MULTIPLE catalogs from one PC to another PC?
    I do not know whether it is relevant: The old PC is running Windows 7, the new PC is running Windows 8.1.

  • How do I migrate bookmarks from one HD to another?

    Windows XP became corrupted (?). It was cheaper to install another hard drive, and install windows on the new drive (backing up the original HD would cost more than the new HD did....) The old drive is easily accessed. How do I migrate Firefox bookmarks from the old HD to the new one?

    This should explain how to grab one of the backup bookmarks file on the old drive.

  • How do i migrate my iTunes library to an external hard drive

    I have burned a lot of movies and have a lot of music and it's maxed out my computer hard drive.  How do I migrate it to an external hard drive and not lose it all?  And what steps do I need to take to access my iTunes?  Just have it connected all the time?  Or should I just wipe a computer and use it only for iTunes?

    1. Drag the entire iTunes library.
    2. Yes.
    3. Check that the library works and is backed up, and then delete it from the internal drive.

  • How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?

    How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?
    I used to store my pictures on an external hard drive using the latest version of Aperture. Now I tried migrating my Aperture library to Photos. However, after a short moment an error message popped up telling me that "Photos was unable to make a copy of your library before preparing it. Photos does not have the necessary permissions...".
    My external HDD doesn't need any permission repairs nor is the system prohibited to read from or write to it.
    Thanks for any advice in advance!

    My guess is that the encryption is the problem for the new app.

  • How do i migrate photos in a folder on my desktop over to my new macbook pro

    how do i migrate photos in a folder on my desktop over to my new macbook pro

    Hi d,
    Connect the two Macs using FireWire Target Disk Mode http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Then just drag the folder from your old Mac to your new Mac (it depends which you use for target and which for source, but one will show up as a HD icon on the desktop of the other; you can copy to/from that HD to/from the other Mac (the folder on your desktop).

  • How do I migrate multiple sparsebundles from my old time capsule to my new time capsule?

    My old 1tb time capsule died on me last week. I bought a new 2tb model. I have put the old disk in an enclosure and I can access the data on it.
    The old time capsule was used to backup three Mac's. How do I migrate the three sparebundles to the new time capsule? I want to keep all the backup histories.
    I found lots of sites with tips but they all assume that the old TC was used to backup only one Mac.
    I run Lion on my main Mac and all time machines were configured to backup via wireless.

    It worked. Kinda. I think.
    I did the steps outlined in option 3. It took 2,5 days to do it (maybe because I had already switched to wireless).
    Once the copy of the files was complete I actived time machine and selected the new time capsule as my backup. It said there was no backup history. But then it started backuping. Instead of the full disk (as I thought it would do, as it said there was no backup history) it only did about 35Gb. Which was what I had expected. I had just upgraded to Lion. After that backup it immediatly started again and did a backup of 40 Mb. (Why ???).
    After that was done I started time machine and all the old backups were there (eg 2010) as a test I restored a file from Jan 2010. And it worked.
    So now the other two sparsebundles to do.
    @Jolly Giant: Thank you for the help and advice.

  • How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !

    How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !

    If your "older" MBA has a Thunderbolt port then it isn't that old. See Target Disk Mode about how it's used. Note that without a monitor you won't be able to tell from the screen when it has fully started, and if it succeeded in starting in TDM. If it did, then the hard drive should appear on the Desktop of your new computer. You can then access it to transfer your files. You can even use Migration Assistant or any backup utility to transfer data. Just don't try to transfer system files.

    I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?
    My iphone and my ipad are compatible but when I try to go to icloud on my phone it says to do it on my computer.
    I would like to have my calendar, contacts, etc.. all sync like they do now. Is there a way to upgrade before June 30th? If not, will the gap be an issue or will I just be able to buy mountain lion and sync everything?
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    You can buy Lion in the App Store now, but move to iCloud now. If you wait to Mountain Lion, you will only have Mail in Snow Leopard, so you will lose syncing unless you use Lion or Mountain Lion. It's up to you
