Moving Elements 6 to a new computer

Hello - I purchased Photoshop Elements 6 for Macintosh a few years ago, and have now purchased a new Apple computer. How can I install Elements on the new computer? I tried copying the program but (predictably) it does not allow this. I've also looked for a download image on the Adobe web, but could not seem to find this either.
Any suggestions would be welcomed.

You would need to install the set up again.Copying the files will not work here.
Do you mean an installation program? I don't think I have any installation program, nor can I find it on the Adobe website.
Any thoughts?

Moving Elements 9 to a New Computer

I recently upgraded from Elements 7 to 8 on an XP computer. No problem. I just bot a Windows 7. Installed 9, no problem. But I can't figure out how to move my catalog. I copied all the photos to the new hard drive. Where is the catalog file, and how do I move it?

To clarify my posting, what I really want is to have
my tags appear in the hierarchical order on the ne
w computer as it was on the old. I take a lot of
insects, etc., and they are classified down to genus and
species.

How do I move a Premier Elements Project to a new computer?

I want to move a Premier Elements Project to a different machine with more efficient RAM and SSDs. How do I move a Premier Elements Project to a new computer?

Welcome to the Premiere Elements Forum.
I constantly migrate my Premiere Projects between my laptop, and my workstation, but I set those Projects up, initially, with that in mind - which is different than having a Project set up on one computer, and then moving it to another. For my setup (remember, this is initially, when I start a Project), see these two articles:
Setting Up Project Folders & Sub-folders
Using External HDD's for Video Editing
For existing Projects, there are a couple of ways to address this. The method that you use, might depend on how you plan on moving the Project.
If you have an external HDD, and plan to use that to do the move, see the "Using External HDD's" article above, as it talks about drive letters in the OS. Getting that correct first, can save a lot of work later.
Then, one can use the Project Archiver to Copy the Project, and necessary files to that external. When one has done that, I strongly suggest that they test that "archived Project," to make sure that the Archiver has gathered everything necessary. The success of that process can depend on how one has set up their folders and sub-folders, and where their Assets (the material that has been Imported into the Project) is located. That is why I always urge one to test everything first. Then, just plug that external HDD into the new computer. At that point, they will have two options: edit to/from the external, or Copy everything to the new computer. For the former, see that "Using External HDD's" article, as there can be some limitations, such as both HDD speed and connection speed, that can impact how well things work.
Next, one could just Copy (over a a wired, or wireless network, or via an external HDD), the Project file (PREL), all Assets, and most of the Scratch Disk folders, to the new computer.
Note: there are files in the Media Cache, such as CFA's and PEK's for the Conformed Audio, that do not have to be Copied/Moved, as PrE will rebuild those (give the program time to do so, and do not edit the Project, until they ARE rebuilt). Same for the Render Files, as if those are needed, one can easily hit Enter/Return, to Render the Timeline, or part of it, again.
Keep the folder structures.
If one gets the "Where is file _____ ?" message, this ARTICLE will be helpful.
Note that the PREL (Project) file is really an XML database. It contains NO MEDIA, but only absolute links to where that media was Imported from. See this ARTICLE for more background.
Good luck, and if you have any questions, or something above was not clear, please ask, before you make the move, as the answers might save you some time, and extra work.

I moved by iTunes files to an external drive because I was changing computers. I then moved the files to the new computer. My iPod is not linking with the files on the computer. What can I do?

I moved my iTunes files from my old computer to an external hard drive. I then moved those files to the new computer. My computer and iPad are not linking up (recognizing each other?). I installed the latest version of iTunes onto the new computer to see if that would help. It did not--I got the message that an iPad can only be linked up with one computer and the new download would not work with this iPod. So the iTunes' library and my iPod are not connecting, and I have no way of installing or removing new songs onto my iPad. What should I do to correct this?

Sorry, I had a typo. The last sentence should have read "iPod" (iPad): So the iTunes' library and my iPod are not connecting, and I have no way of installing or removing new songs onto my iPod. What should I do to correct this?

use your installation files to install on your new computer. you can migrate your catalogue: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
if you don't have your installation files and if you follow all 7 steps, you can dl a trial via one of the links on this page: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-direct-download-links.h tml
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a dl problem, you didn't follow all 7 steps. typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem.

I installed Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer a month ago. It opened several times until yesterday.

You can't run PSE from a USB drive, nor can you transfer PSE to a different computer via a USB drive. PSE must be installed on a computer using the installer program provided by Adobe.

How can I move my photos from Photoshop Elements 8 to a new computer also running Elements 8?

How can I move my photos from Photoshop Elements 8 to a new computer also running Elements 8?

I am not sure this is going to work. For one thing, the preferences file is in a different place in Mountain Lion. It is at: ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.pli st. I wouldn't try to move the .plist file, I'd be very surprised if it would work.
I would do a different approach and start with just recreating the mail account(s) you have on the new machine from scratch and let them download your mail from the server. Then if there were e-mails not on the server any more, but stored in the black macbook, I'd copy them from the mailboxes folder, from the old machine to the new. I'm not sure where they are in 10.5.8, but in ML they are at ~/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes.
At each stage along the way I'd do a backup, so in case it screws things up, you can revert to a functional Mail.app.

How can I download Premiere Elements 11 on my new computer, since my previous computer broke down?

This summer I bought and downloaded Premiere Elements 11 to my previous computer, which a few months later broke down.
How can I download Premiere Elements 11 to my new computer?
In my Adobe account, I see the product listed with the serial number - but the specific download is "not applicable"...

Did you download and purchase the original installation files from Adobe? Did your old computer have a Windows operating system? Does your new computer have a Windows operating system?
I suggest that you contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat
http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=premiere-elements&topic=downloading-installing -and-setting-up
When the link opens, click on "I still need help." to bring up the Adobe Chat.
Alternatively, you could download the files from the following and then insert your purchased serial number.

Read the instructions carefully. In such a try, I am assuming that both old and new computers involve the Windows.

How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer with Windows 8?

How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on my new computer with Windows 8?

if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

Can I install my Photoshop Elements CD on my new computer? My old computer crashed

My computer was hit my lightning and crashed. Can I install my Photoshop Elements 8 on my new computer? I have Windows 7 on the new computer and I saved the DVD with Serial number on it.

Hello!
Could you tell us if you are talking about Photoshop 4.0 that was released in 1996, or Photoshop CS4 (PS 11), or Photoshop elements 4?
Older version might not work if your C: drive is bigger than 1TeraByte.

I can't find my box for the serial number. How can I start elements 11 on my new computer?

How can I activate my elements 11 on my new computer. I lost my box that has my serial numbers on it

Did you install it on your old machine? Is the old machine still around with you in working order? If so then there is a tool called Belarc Advisor that can retrieve the serial number from the old machine. It is for Windows only so if you are using Steve Jobs machine then you are in bad luck. Unless of course, you registered the product with Adobe but most people don't; I don't anyway.
