Lost tags in move from pse5 to pse8. What did I do wrong?

I just installed pse8 and only about 25 of my total of 5000 pictures have their tags. The tags are listed under Imported Keyword Tags but there's nothing in them except a few pictures. The tags are not listed with their orignal category of people, places, events, etc. I really don't want to have to tag all 5000 again.  Any ideas of what I can do?

It sounds like that, rather than converting your PSE 5 catalog to PSE 8 format, you imported all your photos into a new PSE 8 catalog.
When you first launched PSE 8, it should have asked to convert your PSE 5 catalog, but if it didn't, you should do so manually.  See this tech note for details:

    When I updated my MAC I lost all my movies from iTunes.  They are still on my hard drive but will not reappear after I reset my preference in advance section.  How do I fix it?

    If they are still on your Mac's drive then you should be able to add them back into iTunes via File > Add To Library

  • I had microsoft exchange added and when I synced I lost all of my prior contacts. Also, thenames all turned to numbers.  Example when you get a text from a contact, their name appeared.  Now just a phone number.  What did I do wrong and can I get it back?

    Since adding microsoft exchange I sunced my phone and lost all of my old contact, notes. etc.  Also, when I do get a text message it appears as a number instead of a name.  What did I do wrong and can I get my old info restored.  When I tried restoring it only gave me the same thing.

    That number is for an apple server in the UK that is used for iMessage activation.  A hidden SMS is snet to that number when you turn iMessage on and is used to verify your phone number.  I suggest you turn iMessage off.  In settings/phone turn on dial assist.  Check with your carrier to see if you can send an international SMS as you end that possibility to activate iMessage.  Rest your phone (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).) then turn iMessage back on.

  • All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

    All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo to Iphoto from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - 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.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - 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.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    The index page copied from the template is now reading the css.  I did nothing other than shut down DW and open it again.  Maybe it just takes a while for the process to complete.  Am now creating more pages that are also not reading css.  Will do the same and see if it all connects.

  • What did I do wrong? I used to have iTunes installed on this computer and lost it when it crashed. No I can't get past a certain point in the installation point. I keep getting an error message stating that I need to verify that I have access to this file

    Help!! What's going wrong here. I used to have iTunes installed on this computer but lost it when it crashed. I've tried re-installing it numerous times but I keep getting the same error message. "Error writing to file: C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes.Resources\es.lproj\iPadLicense.rtf. Verify that you have access to that directory." I know I have access to that directory because on a different computer I can sync my iPad and iPhone. What am I doing wrong? What do I need to go in and authorize or turn on? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

    Hi, Mylenium,
    Thanks for your prompt reply, I'm afraid it hasn't helped. I don't see anything wrong in my device manager.
    I have also gone and updated every driver, especially the motherboard chipset and the Sata Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver.
    Unfortunately, this hasn't made any difference.
    Any other suggestions?
    Many thanks in advance!

  • I'm trying to hookup my new AirPort Extreme with my net gear 7550 router/modem from Frontier. I'm not getting a wifi signal from the airport. What am I doing wrong?

    What am I doing wrong?

    I'm trying to use AirPort Untility to configure the old APExtreme to extend the network, but it won't let me.
    "Extend" is only used if the two AirPort Extremes are connecting using wireless only.
    "Create" is the correct setting to use since the AirPort Exremes are connecting using Ethernet.
    Configure the second AirPort Extreme to create a wireless network using the exact same wireless network name, same security setttings and same wireless password as the "main" AirPort Extreme and make sure that you are choosing the Bridge Mode option for the second AirPort Extreme before clicking Update to save the settings.
    When you do this, everything will act like one big wireless network and computers will automatically pick up a signal from the AirPort with the strongest signal based on their location.
    This Apple document more details on this....which is called a Roaming Network.

  • Need to move from PSE5 on xp to new PC with win7 and 64 bit

    Old computer is XP 32 bit and new laptop is Windows 7 64 bit. Do I need to buy new Elements 8 for the 64 bit pc and how do I move my photos over to new computer. I am not at all technical so thanks for any help.

    Hi
    PSE5 is fine on 64 bit W7. There's various ways of moving your photos, I'd suggest "File", "Backup Catalog..." to an external hard drive or DVD and then "File", "Restore catalog" on new pc. That will transfer your cataog as well as your photos so captions,  tags etc are preserved.

  • Lost trying to Move from MobileMe to ICloud

    I am stuck in an endless loop. I try to turn on photo streaming and it tells me to move my MobileMe account to ICloud I Click the links and all I end up with is a page to ether find my IPhone in MobileMe or I click a link to ICloud and it wants to find my IPad. I have not been able to find anyway to move to ICloud and none of the documentation explains how to make the move.

    Some users have noted that turning off mobile me sync services and back to my mac, has allowed them proceed with the upgrade to iCloud. My upgrade occured as it should have so I can't confirm this workaround works.

  • Some elements on the master page move from page to page. What did I do wrong?

    I can't figure out how to solve my problem.
    The location of the logo and menu (which are on my master page) is correct on the homepage: http://psychocegep.com/
    However, the those elements move when I go on another page. It is even more annoying on this page : http://psychocegep.com/matiere.html
    In fact, the whole page goes down and it creates a blank space at the very top.
    The problem does not occur on my iMac computer, but is present on every other computer.
    What should I do to keep the logo and the menu static?

    Hello,
    Could you please check if it happens when you preview the site in a web browser via Adobe Muse?
    Do you have Menu added on a Master page or on the page itself?
    Please check if some of the element on the page (http://psychocegep.com/matiere.html) has been marked as footer which might be creating issues.

    If you no longer have the software and product key you can't use Microsoft Office. The system usually comes with the trial version, so it's likely that you never had a product key.
    You'll need to use MS Works, Buy MS Office, or find a free alternative such as OpenOffice.Org The key on the label beneath the notebook is for Windows, NOT Office.

    thanks
    rock

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

  • Finished correcting 40,000 song tags on my hard drive. uninstalled iTunes. reinstallediTunes. iTunes put every label back as it was before on iTunes as well as my hard drive. I'm ******. What did I do wrong?

    Yeah! I spent 2 weeks cleaning up 40,000+ songs id3 Tags on my external hard drive. I removed duplicates, mis-labeled, mis-numbered songs. I uninstalled iTunes COMPLETELY.  I re-installed iTunes and reloaded my music.
    iTunes loaded my music with every error I had removed and every error was magically back on my hard drive. Needless to say I'M REALLY ******.
    So what rookie mistake did I make here.
    Do I need to correct all these mistakes through iTunes rather than directly to the file on my hard drive?
    How do I make it so that if I transfer my hard drive to another computer with iTunes I dont have to do it all again???

    Uninstalling & reinstalling iTunes should leave your iTunes database unchanged. If your media files are properly tagged then they should remain so if imported into a "fresh" library, though they lose information that is only stored in the library database such as playlist membership, ratings, play counts, checked status etc.
    .wav files don't carry a tag. If organized in sensible Artist & Album folders I have a script called TagFromFilename that will extract meaning from the file path, but that only works if you disable iTunes reorganizing options before you import, otherwise these are likely to end up in a heap in Unknown Artist\Unknown Album. If you have an older database file that you can restore it may be possible to locate these files with a script called FindTracks then have iTunes rearrange the paths again.
    If you deduped from iTunes, but didn't clear the underlying files from the folders then reimporting the media folder would have imported the dupes.
    In certain cases mp3 files can have multiple tags, only one of which iTunes updates, In some cases on reimport it may read the other unedited data.
    Ideally you would backup the entire library routinely and especially before undertaking any radical change in case something goes wrong.
