How to restore Elements 8 after a crash

I had a hard drive crash, but had my hard drive backed up. However I can't seem to recover the file information/organization before the crash. Looking for advice.

If you mean that the Organizer's catalog is empty, search your entire computer for
*.pse8db
and use Organizer's File...Catalog...Custom Location to browse to the directory that contains the largest *.pse8db file.

  • How to restore edited messages after Thunderbird crash?

    I work with several messages opened usually to check details of a conversation or for preparing the answer. When Thunderbird crashes all these open messages are lost. Some I edited are in the Drafts, the ones I just viewed are lost.
    Is there a way to restore a Thunderbird session? For Firefox this is a standard, for TB it should be as well.

  • HT4061 How to restore my ipad after downloading itunes?

    How to restore my ipad after downloading itunes?

    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring:
    Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
    Back up your device.
    Transfer and sync content to your computer.
    Restoring your iOS device
    Connect your device to your computer.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. Select the Summary tab, and click the Restore button.
    Click Restore.
    After a restore, the iOS device restarts. You should then see "Slide to set up". Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant.
    If needed, restore your device from a previous backup.
    If restoring does not finish successfully or if a restore error appears, see iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages.
    Additional Information
    If your device is continually restarting, not responding, or showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, place the device into recovery mode and try restoring again.
    Devices with cellular service should activate after a restore. If activation is not successfu, see the options below.
    Symptoms
    Your iPhone may display one of the following messages when you attempt to activate it:
    "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
    "The iPhone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service."
    "iTunes was unable to verify your device."
    Resolution
    Perform the following steps if you receive one of the messages above:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to Wi-Fi if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Applefor assistance.

  • How to restore safari bookmarks after osi update

    how to restore safari bookmarks after ios. update

    The only way is to restore from a useful backup, if you have one.
    If you sync the iPad to iTunes and use Time Machine regularly, you would likely have the appropriate backup to restore from. In that case:
    Restore the iPad backup set from Time Machine from a date before you overwrote the bookmarks. The location of the backup is ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ (you can get to it by pressing Cmd+Shift+G in the Finder and entering this path).
    Connect the iPad, run iTunes and restore from the backup.
    If you use iCloud Backup, then you can restore from iCloud and choose which date's backup you'd like to restore from. You can check if you're using iCloud Backup by opening the Settings app on the iPad, then going to the iCloud submenu and looking at the status right below "Storage & Backup", where it would say "iCloud Backup is off." (or "iCloud Backup is on.", as the case may be).
    In any case, keep in mind that restoring from a backup means you lose all application data changes after the date of the backup.

  • Renaming session restore backup doesn't work, how do I restore old session after a crash?

    Computer crashed and Firefox didn't remember my session. It happened a couple weeks ago so I had looked up how to fix and I learned from my mistake and saved the sessionstore.bak file before restarting Firefox. I closed Firefox, deleted sessionstore.js and renamed .bak to js but on startup it still doesn't bring up the restore session. Restore previous on the history tab still greyed out, about:sessionrestore brings up no tabs. I even tried copying that same file and also naming copies as sessionstore-1 & 2. How do I get it to work?

    You can try to restore a previous version of the sessionstore.js or sessionstore.bak file. You need to rename the .bak file to .js to make Firefox see that session.

  • How can I reinstall Adobe Premiere Elements 12 after computer crash without my old keys?

    I need to re-install Elements 12, but I can't find my product key.

    My World
    You should have two choices for obtaining working installation files....
    1. If you purchased the installation files from Adobe....go to the Adobe web site, sign in with your Adobe ID and Password, go to the Search field at the top right of that web page and type in My Orders. Then follow the My Orders to your orders and select the order involved. There should be a place there to download new installation files.
    2. You can go to the following web site and download and install Premiere Elements 12 tryout. During the installation of those files, you insert your purchased serial number to make this your working copy of the program.
    http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
    The important matter with this route is read and carry out carefully the web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" and the "here" button in the instructions so that you do not get Access Denied.
    Please let us know if any of the above works for you.

  • I reinstalled Elements 12 after a crash.  Editor and Create does not work.  Getting "you must purchase" message.  It was purchased already.  What should I do?

    Please help....purchased Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12 in August.  My hard drive crashed and I had to reinstall.  Now Elements does not allow me to use editor or Create and keeps telling me to purchase the software I already have.  What do I do?

    Peggy-D
    This is not Adobe. Rather user to user.
    From whom did you purchase Premiere Elements 12? Or, did you purchase from an authorize reseller?
    Either way, you are well beyond the typical money back within 30 days of purchase type of arrangement.
    But, as I said, this is not Adobe with whom you are communicating here. If you purchased from Adobe, then refund decisions are from Adobe.
    If you purchased from an authorized reseller, then you need to deal with that company's refund policy.
    I am surprised but glad that you got through to Adobe/Chat/Tech Support people. Typically they will only deal with current version/purchased/registered, and it is well into version 13 by now (13 was released September 24, 2014). When did you contact Adobe? Do you have a case number with Adobe Tech? Did it give you a troubleshooting scheme to follow? Were you supposed to get back to it? Did it work after your interaction with Adobe Tech?
    Post 2 of this thread highlights the things that worked for me when I was in situations such as your with Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12.
    Have you gone through the drills
    a. determining if the problem exists with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled
    b. creating a new User Account with Administrative Privileges and installing and running Premiere Elements 12 from there.
    If you purchased from Adobe direct and want to get an official decision on a refund, you can try using the following link to Adobe Chat Orders
    Contact Customer Care
    Premiere Elements
    Membership, Account, Payment
    Payments, invoices, orders
    Chat Panel
    As of a few moments ago, the Chat Panel was visible. If the link set does not hold, then you will need to navigate to the Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
    We will be watching for your decision on how you want to proceed.
