Move tags from photoshop elements 10 to photoshop elements 13

I have thousand of pictures all tagged with people, places, events in PE 10. Just got PE 13. When I bring in pictures the tags go under Keywords under Importated Keyword Tags and can't be moved to People Tags; Places Tags; Event tags.
Is there a way to get them to come in as imported Tags?

If you 'bring in' pictures by re-importing them in a new empty catalog, the organizer will find the tags recorded in the picture files themselves. It will not find the keyword/categories which are recorded in the catalog... unless you have saved that hierarchy before, which I'll explain later.
- If you install PSE13 on the same computer, you don't reimport your picture files. You simply agree to the conversion proposal in the installation process. A new catalog is created including everything in the keyword/categories hierarchy and your albums, stacks, version sets etc. If you don't agree at installation time, you can always use the catalog manager later to convert any older catalog.
- if you install on another computer, use the backup/restore method. Use Backup, Restore to move catalog | Organizer | Elements 6 or later
- If for some reason you choose to re-import your files after using the 'write metadata to files' function, save your categories hierarchy in a text file : small drop-down menu in the title bar of the keywords panel. Create the new empty catalog in the new PSE version, and use the same drop-down menu to restore the hierarchy. Then you can import your picture files and the tags will go in the right hierarchy. Note that you won't recover albums etc like in the two previous solutions.

How to move tags from PSE 5 windows to PSE/bridge 6 for Mac

I have all my photos in PSE 5.0 windows. I bought a mac and PSE 6.0. how do I import the photos with the tags as keywords into the new version of the software on the mac?

You can't convert from the Organizer to Bridge.
Bridge is only a browser, you don't
"import" files into it, you just browse your files wherever they are in the Finder. Anything you move in the Finder, Bridge will see it immediately, and vice-versa. Bridge doesn't create libraries or albums.
Two very different, incompatible paradigms.

Can I merge duplicate tags from facial recognition in Elements 11?

How can I merge duplicate tags from facial recognition in Photoshop Elements 11? For example, if I mistakenly created two tags, both called Bill, how can I put all Bill's pictures in one file? I found an answer for previous editions of Photoshop Elements, but Photoshop Elements 11 has changed the organizer so I can't figure out how to do it. Also, it doesn't seem possible to see two sets of tags at the same time - is this a glitch?

OK - I figured it out.
1. Go to Media in the Organizer.
2. Click on View at the top, and click on "Show People in Tag Panel."
3. Click on the name you want to merge - the file name you want to get rid of.
4. Edit > Select All
5. Drag the tag you want to use to the selected photos, so that they have both the old and new tags.
6. In the Keyword Tags pane, click on the old tag, go up to where it says "People Tags." There is a plus and minus sign next to this. Click on the minus sign and click on Delete. The tag you highlighted will be deleted.

Importing tags from Photoshop Album to Photoshop Elements 5

I have had Photoshop Album 2.0.2 for several years and it currently holds the information of 13000+ tagged items. I have a detailed tagging system set up which I don't want to lose. I also have Photoshop Elements 5 and having just discovered that Photoshop Album is now discontinued I wanted to transfer my existing information into Elements.
I have spent some time trying varies options but cannot find the solution I want.
If I select a photo from file to import into Elements then the tagging information does not come with it.
If I export an image from Album to desktop and then import it into Elements no tags come with it.
If I email a photo from Album to myself then import that image it does come with the tags into Elements.
Obviously I can't email all 13000 images to myself to import them but can someone suggest how I can transfer this data - obviously the photos themselves don't need to move as both programmes only keep a link to the original location to the photos.
I'm not interested in using the online storage system but wonder if one solution might be to upload all my phots to that temporarily then reimport them to Elements.
Additionally is it possible to import my current tag structure rather than have imported tags all appearing under a 'imported tags' tag.
Any help grately appreciated.
Thanks
Gill

Thank you so much it worked - the only thing that didn't transfer was the folder pics I'd chosen for the tags so that didn't take long to redo - many thanks - I'd never have found that. It would have been so much more obvious if it showed 'open' or 'select catalogue' rather than just the word 'catalogue' with no other options visible from the dropdown menu.
Happy Bunny here!

Transfering tags from Album 2.0 to Photoshop Elements 9.0

I'm trying transfer my pictures and tags to a new computer. the old platform was Win XP with Photoshop Album 2.0 (PA2) and the new computer is Win 7 64bit with Photoshop Elements 9.0. (PE9)
So far I have been successful in moving the photos to a directory on the new computer and I can view the photos in PE9. But the tags did not transfer to the new catalog.
I must be missing something basic. Is there an additional file that needs to be transfered to make the old tags work on PE9?
Looking forward to anyone's suggestions.
Cheers,
Andy

In theory, yes you can transfer tags from PSA2 to PSE9, however because of the large distance between the versions, sometimes the method fails.
The preferred method is to convert the PSA2 catalog file to PSE9. To do this, you need to create a backup using PSA2 (File->Backup Catalog), and then move everything from this backup to the new computer, launch PSE9, and then File->Restore Catalog. As I said, sometimes with older versions of PSE/PSA, the method fails, you won't know until you try it.
Another possibility (not really sure if PSA2 had this capability) is to have PSA2 write the tags to the individual photo files, then copy all the photos to the new computer and import to PSE9.

Will photoshop elements 12 import tags from photoshop elements 5

will photoshop elements 12 import tags from photoshop elements 5?

See:
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
I suppose you are using the organizer : you'll be able to recover your PSE5 catalogs either by a catalog conversion on the same computer or by the backup / restore process.

Hi. Migrated photos from Photoshop Album to Phtoshop Elements 13. Lost all tags Any ideas?

Hi. Migrated photos from Photoshop Album to Photoshop Elements 13. Lost all tags Any ideas?

I'm not sure but it sounds a lot like the question I posed to the forum a little later today. It may be that the newer versions of PSE are not compatible with transfering all the Categories, Sub Categories and Tags from versions up to PSE 10. I am presently using PSE 10 because I couldn't figure out how to save all the organization I have put into Elements over the past 10 years or so.
I'm hoping for an answer to my question.

You cannot move or copy software between computers. You must reinstall. You will need the serial number. Check your account details on Adobe's site if you registered.

Retrieving missing keyword tags from a previous version of Photoshop Elements

I just purchased an upgraded version of Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12, but after all my photos were converted to the new version, all of my keyword tags from the previous version are not showing. How do I retrieve them?

Thank you so much. I had tried to use both of those buttons, but I didn't know that I had to use them in that order in order for the tags to show up, and I couldn't find the answer in the Adobe help section, either. Looks like all my tags are there and the problem is solved. Thanks again.

Can I keep tags etc when moving to Photoshop Elements 9 from version 5?

Have just installed Elements 9.0 on new PC wth windows 7. Have moved pictures from old PC which had Elements 5.
Can I transfer (restore) the tags etc from old version to new one?
What do I need to do?
I have not yet connected pictures to Elements 9 - they are just in My pictures file/folder.

Hi Bill
There was a major change in the user interface and program coding between PSE5 and PSE6.
Make sure you have the 0.2 update for PSE5 before doing the update.
The backup/restore may work but catalog upgrade/conversion may be better when you load the new software.

Importing Photos From Photoshop Album To Photoshop Elements 9

I recently transfered about 14,000 photos from Adobe Photoshop Album into a new computer with Photoshop Elements 9 installed. In Photoshop Album, I often edited my photos and saved the originals. However, only the edited version appeared on the organizer screen. With Photoshop Elements installed, a thumbnail appeared for each Album-edited photo on the organizer screen as a version set with tags and photo description in place but no image. In most cases clicking on the black right-pointed arrow brings up another imageless box (to the right of the previous thumbnail) that is identical to the first one, tags and all. In a few other cases, the edited image appears to the right with tags. The latter isn't too bad since I can delete the original imageless thumbnail from the organizer.
I have tried importing a couple of files of photos from the new hard drive into the organizer. I get the original which is tagged and the edited photos untagged. I want to be able to bring up my edited photos when I use certain keyword tags rather than the originals so don't have to hunt for them in the organizer. At the same time, I want to avoid having to retag several thousand edited photos. Can anyone help. Thanks for reading this message.

Hi Fred,
I don't recommend using this software for anything other than
cataloging. If you want to move your images you should consider
Photoshop Elements because it is meant to perform this activity. PSA SE
is just a little cataloging applet that would get really confused if you
even tried it. You would have to completely redo your catalog.
Cheers

From starter edition to photoshop elements 12

how do we transfer the collections and tags from windows xp (adobe starter edition) to windows 8.1 (adobe photoshop elements 12)? There are close to 200 collections in ADOBE STARTER EDITION 3.2. It looks like elements 12 calls them albums.

Trial version is a fully functional version of the product that you can use for thirty days. you can download and install it from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us.
Photoshop Elements consists of two components. The Organizer with which you manage and organize your media. This is where collections and tags will show. The Editor with which you can edit your images.
If it does what you want, you would install the product from the trial download onto your Windows 8 computer. Then backup your catalog from your XP machine and restore it to your Windows 8 machine.

How do i transfer all my pics from Picasa 3 to Photoshop Elements 13

I'm sure their all saves in My Pics on my HDD so perhaps just pull them all into 13. I just want to make sure I have all my pics and videos off of Picasa 3. Side note, does PE 13 allows me to get rid of of multiple copies of the same pics.
Thanks

If your program is Photoshop Elements 13, you have posted in the wrong forum. Some how your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator to see your thread here and move it from there to there.

How can I open grouped folder layers from the full version of Photoshop into my Photoshop Elements 10 verison?

I have gotten a PSD from a coworker who asked for some help. He has the Full version of Photoshop and I have the Elements 10 version. I cannot open the grouped folders into individual layers and manipulate the current design that needs work. How can I get more functionality out of Elements and ungroup these layers?

You could get elements+ which is a very cheap add on.
