Import presets from previous version

Having upgraded from CS to CS4 I want to import my preset crops and brushes into the new version. I can't find any advice elsewhere and would appreciate it if someone could please tell me how to do this.
Roger

Thanks again. You prompted me to save my CS presets in Edit>Preset Manager>Save Set. This puts them into folders under C/Program Files/Adobe/Photohop CS/Presets/Brushes [/Tools] from where they can be copied and pasted into the corresponding CS4 folders. Then it is necessary to activate them by double-clicking the set in the Brushes folder [or from the Load Set command in the CS4 Preset Manager in the case of Tools] and, hey presto, they appear under the right tool buttons.
I don't know if I've done it the right way because I had to create Brushes and Tools subfolders in the CS4 Presets folder. My saved brush set does not show up under Load Set in the CS4 Preset Manager but the saved crop tools do, making the procedure different for each. To me that's all very weird but everything seems to be working OK.

Migrating Presets from previous versions

There was chat about this an other thread, but I can't find it now. Someone mentioned that their Topaz plugins all worked, and as I'm betting the beta will be the primary version of Photoshop for most of us ntil the final release, it does make sense to get it fully functional.
The Topaz plugins install from an .exe file with Windows, but a quick hunt round found that it puts shortcuts to a central installation at:
and
So it was just a matter of copying the shortcuts to the same folders in CS6 (without mixing up the 32bit and 64bit versions like I did first time I tried.)
I was also lookijng for my Type DNA plugin, but the migration process had worked fine, and it was there in Adobe Extension Manager CS6 (Start > All programs), but needed to be Enabled. After that it appeared in Window > Extensions, and launched as per my custom workspace which had carried over from CS5. A big thanks to the development team. It's little touches like an easy migration of previous version settings that make all the difference.

This comment brought something to my mind...
At the moment I have Photoshop CS6 beta installed in a VMware virtual machine. As a rule I *don't* install beta software on my production host environment, because stability is supremely important to me (I rely on this system to do a tremendous number of things, and it's rock solid).
Photoshop CS6 beta works surprisingly well in the VM, but not every GPU feature is available because the virtualized display driver environment simply doesn't provide as much capability as a real display driver on real hardware. I do see enough GPU support to know that Photoshop CS6 is doing a fine job, and it seems quite stable.
What I can't really tell is how well it's going to work on my host system, with ATI Radeon HD 5670 video card. I could be unpleasantly surprised when I install it and find that there's some driver glitch that keeps things from working even as well as I've seen in the VM.
But at the moment I'm torn...
Do I go ahead and install the beta on my host system, and chance breaking something, but have more information about any potential bugs so I can be prepared for the release? Perhaps I could supply such information to Adobe and/or ATI and get them working on a fix?
Do I wait, and just deal with any issues when it's released, knowing I will still have Photoshop CS5 to drop back to for important work, and conceivably could continue using CS6 in a VM even then.
This is just a risk management issue for one who wants to have his cake and eat it too.
At the moment I'm still slightly tipped toward just waiting for the release and continuing as I am now. It's a philosophy that has worked remarkably well.

Importing project from previous version

I just updated to the latest version of Premiere pro. Now I can't open my most recent project. I click OK. Then an empty project file opens up. When I go to import the previous file into the new project, it imports as an empty folder.
How can my project be converted to the latest version of Premiere Pro?

It did not work. I do not even get the 'Convert project' dialog box anymore.
I am going to finish the project in cc7 but I would still like to figure this out.

How do I import bookmarks from previous version of Firefox (21) - they disappeared when I installed hte latest update to 22.0?

I had "Plain Old Favorites" installed as an extension and it showed all my bookmarks. Now it is blank - won't function - but I did not see any warning that it was not compatible. How do I convert/import these to use as Firefox bookmarks?

Import your bookmarks from IE. <br />
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Importing+bookmarks+and+other+data+from+other+browsers
PlainOld Favorites needs to be fixed for Firefox 22 by the developer of that extension, who had sufficient notice about the changes which were originally slated to be in Firefox 21 - six weeks ago, at least.

Cannot import settings from previous version because of "beta participation"

I have just upgraded to v3.6.8 and all bookmarks, add-ins, etc are lost. Message at start-up says "beta participation detected" and my old firefox-3.5 directory is renamed to firefox-3.5.abandoned. I am not aware of ever loading a beta version.

You might want to ask about that in the Ubuntu forums. The version of Firefox 3.6.8 you have is not an official version from Mozilla, it is a modified version from Ubuntu. It has the Ubuntu Firefox Modifications 0.9rc2 extension, which is part of the Ubuntu customizations for Firefox, and it isn't available ala carte, AFAIK - I have looked for it to dissect it to see exactly what those mods are, and can't find it as a separate download.

Importing Song from previous version and audio hardware

I am having major trouble loading songs created in LP6 or 7 into LP8. Since upgrading I have also gone from using a Digi 001 to an HD System with a 192 interface. All the tracks show the device as Direct I-O, which was the driver for the Digi 001 (which I no longer own!) In LP7 I can change these to Core Audio to use the new Digidesign hardware, I can then hear the audio tracks, but doing this seems to take off any plugins and virtual instruments! I can't even work out how to do this in LP8. Surely there must be a way of converting tracks to my current Core Audio setup without losing all the tracks' settings? Help please!
Gonzo

Is there really no way to do this? I found a tedious workaround by copying the Channel Settings of each track, creating a new track, pasting in the channel settings, renaming, dragging the regions onto the new track, deleting the old one. But that's very boring and lengthy for something which should be able to be changed instantly! I'm glad I went back to using Pro Tools, which handles this kind of thing so much better!

Can I import Events and Projects from previous versions of iMovie

I just installed the latest version of iMovie - but I have a bunch of projects, events, etc. from previous version - going way back. Is there a way to move those items into the new version.

Yes. File - Update Projects and Events. Your iMovie 9 folders will still be available. (I would not delete any iMovie 9 stuff untill you are happy with iMovie 10 - its quite different.)

Delayed response of when moving objects in diagram and panel, happend in LV 6, only for vi's compiled from previous versions. any suggestions?

When I using the mouse to select portion of the diagram or the panel, or when I moving objects- I found that in all the vi's that I compiled from former versions of labview- there is a delay of close to a second to the actual selection or movement of the item. This happens in 2 machines out of 5 that I tested it, and it happened both in windows 2000 and in windows 98. any suggestions?

Sometimes a video driver issue. Update your video driver.
Or turn down the video driver hardware acceleration. Right-click an
empty area of the desktop, choose the Settings tab, choose the Advanced
button.
The location of this differs in different versions of Windows.
Win2000: go to Troubleshooting, and turn down the slider for hardware
acceleration.
Win98: I think it's on another tab.

Bring back lost Creation types from previous versions of Elements?

I would like to see some of the Creation types from previous versions of Elements that appear to have been lost in the lastest verions reinstated - either within the product or as downloadable options. Specifically I use the 'Album Pages / Seasons' creations in PE4 a lot but looking through a download of PE7 they are no longer there.
If this can be addressed it would also help me enormously to be able to repeat text boxes on each page (same text, font & position) on each page in just the way I already can with headers and footers.
Any support for this type of thing?

hi.

I cannot recover back up's from previous versions?? Really??

Every time I try to recover back ups from previous versions of iPhoto, it crashes as it doesn't see the image as a jpg file. Any suggestions? These photo's are an invaluable part of my business!!

Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new library. Now insert the disc in the optical drive and try copying photos from the disc library into the new library. If you can then that means you current library is damaged.
If that's the case then make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select options #1, #2 and #6.
Fix #3
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Reconnect from previous versions of pse

I accidently deleted some files where photos are stored. Can I somehow reconnect from previous versions of pse that are backed up on cd's. I am running pse 11.

You can copy the photos to your computer from your backups and PSE Organizer will find them automatically if you put them in the correct folder which your current configuration knows about it.
You just need to copy the photos and organizer can do the rest.
Good luck.
