Moving Photoshop Elements catalogues from a PC to a Mac

I have created several photo catalogues on my PC using Photoshop Elements 7. I have now moved to a Mac computer. I have imported my photos tom my new computer, and into iPhoto. However I would like to continue organising and editing them with Photoshop Elements. To this end I intend to purchase the Photoshop Elements for Mac software. However if I do this how to I move the catalogue (and stack details) for my photo collection to the Mac? Grateful for some advice.

And presumably once i have checked everything has imported correctly, i can then delete those photos in iPhoto that I now have duplicates of in my new Mac PSE folder? This would then provide a sort of safeguard on the transfer process. Will all the stacks, catalogues etc. in the new Mac PSE file be the same as on my old PC PSE file? As I have a lot of very old family photos from the early part of the last century i have numerous edits of each photo. These all appear separately in iPhoto. Presumably they will appear stacked as one photo in my new Mac PSE file? Apologies for these aggravating little questions but I want to make sure everything will be OK before starting the process.

How do I transfer my photoshop elements 11 from my pc to my mac?

How do I transfer my Photoshop Elements 11 from my pc to my mac? If I try to download it off the website, it wants my to download Photoshop Elements 12 which doesn't recognize my seriel number. I don't want to buy Photoshop Elements 12. I want to use my Photoshope Elements 11.

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 downloading, 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

How can I transfer my Adobe Photoshop Elements catalog from my pc to my mac?

What is the best way to move a Adobe Photoshop Elements catalog from a pc to a mac?

You do know the mac version of PSE has no Organizer?
You can use file>Write Tags and Properties to File(s) on your files in the organizer before sending them to your mac to write the tags into the file's metadata, which can be read by Bridge, iphoto, aperture, etc. on the mac. (It doesn't work for raw files and it doesn't always work, so do a couple of test files first.) You'll need to make tags for categories and albums, too, in order to be able to sort by those criteria again.

Edit in Photoshop Elements 9 from Lightroom 3 on a Mac

I can't seem to get the PS9 to open properly with my photo. So I'm in LR3 and I right click and select 'edit in photoshop elements 9'. It asks me if I want to 'edit a copy with lightroom adjustments' - I say yes and click 'edit'.
PS9 opens and I see the welcome screen with the PS9 editor behind it but neither have my photo loaded. I can close the welcome screen but the editor still doesn't have my photo loaded.
How do I get PS9 to open my photo so I can edit it?
Any help appreciated - I'm probably just missing something simple but it's eluding me...

Hillsitter,
I use a Windows PC and PSE Version 8.
However, I set up the link to PSE by going to Edit > Preferences and
clicking on the External Editing Tab.
I then clicked on the 'Choose' box and browsed to > Program Files > Adobe >
Photoshop Elements 8.0 and I then clicked on the Elements Organiser 8.0.exe
file to create the Link to the Elements Organiser. I could have linked to
the PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe file.
I know this will be somewhat different on a Mac but the principle should be
the same i.e. link directly to the .exe file.
I hope this helps.

Moving Photoshop Elements & files from Windows XP to 8.1

After a major upgrade of my pc I temporarily have PSE (10) on a drive running on an XP platform, with all my photos on a separate "data-drive".
Question: How can I best make programme and files work together on my new Win8.1-platform/drive without loss of data? In short: Where do I start, and how do I proceed? Can I simply install PSE on my 8.1 drive and then connect it to my PSE catalog, and if so: how?

If your media files are already on an external drive, the question is where is your catalog? It can be on the default location on your internal drive, or it can be in the external drive if you have already moved it there.
In the last case, you simply plug in your external drive to the Win8 PC, install PSE10, and from the organizer you use the catalog manager to browse to the custom location of your catalog : the folder containing the catalog.pse10db file. You can also double click on that file to open the organizer with your catalog.
If you have PSE11 or 12, you'll have to use the organizer menu to convert the catalog to the new format.
If you are in the usual default location of your catalog in the old internal drive, locate it via the menu Help / System info. Copy the whole folder containing the catalog to the external drive, just under the root letter, not inside a folder containing your image files. Once you have copied it, see above.
Of course, doing a full backup is always a good idea.
Note that when you have recovered the catalog in the new PC, the catalog and images are shared between both PCs. Both can access your catalog. If you are not interested to share your catalog, you might prefer to move or copy the catalog back to the default location on the internal drive of your new PC. You'll have more speed. The organizer catalog manager has the option to move the catalog back to the default location.

Moved photoshop elements 9 from a failed imac to a new one.

It will not activate. Error code 6. The error message also states "de-install and re-install". App is inert. Nothing works. What is my best move?

For activation problems there is a specialist Chat service at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html. They should be able to reset your code on the spot.

Hi,
Can you please confirm whether the volume on which you are installing Photoshop Elements is Case Sensitive or Case In-Sensitive? To find this out you will need to perform the following steps:
1. Launch /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app
2. Click on the Disk from the left panel (Not the Partition)
3. Click on the Partition Tab
4. Check the text that is written in the Format Tab. Is it Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)?
If it is Case-sensitive, Journaled, then you will have to make this volume as Case-Insensitive by selecting Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as PSE is currently not supported on case sensitive volumes.
Thanks,
Tarun

Googled for an instruction sheet. Got the following.

and

(Don't know why the second one didn't turn into a link, that's the url that printed out at the bottom of the page)
In any case it doesn't matter. I returned it to the store where I bought it.
Rule #1; Don't use a product if the people who produce that product (software, hardware, etc.) don't properly support it.
User forums and\or chat lines, are useful and may help. But! They do not constitute proper support (not for installation purposes anyway).

I've installed Photoshop Elements 12 from a CD onto my PC laptop. I'm thinking about buying a tablet, so was wondering if (a) can I install on a 2nd device (b) can I use the serial number online as I won't beable to install from a CD, and (c) will I beable to choose a mac, after the initial was on a PC???? Thanks Martin

A single user license allows for having activated installations on two machines. An Elements license allows for either platform in many cases (recently not the case from what I've seen). If you have the disc, see if it contains the Mac installation files... if it does then you should be able to install them via a download as well. I cannot answer with certainty for the last question since it relies on the previous question. Personally, I would not let an inexpensive piece of software dictate an expensive hardware purchase decision.

Can't find Twain plug in for Photoshop Elements 12 from App store

I'm running OSX Mavericks and have purchased Photoshop Elements 12 from the App Store. I want to be able to scan things into Elements but the import option is grayed out. I've tried to follow these directions (TWAIN not installed | Photoshop Elements 9 and later) however the file path they describe does NOT exist on my Elements 12 install. There is no ImportModules folder, nor is there even an Optional Plug-Ins folder. I've tried searching (and setting the search to include hidden, system files) but they are not on my machine that I can find.
Any suggestions? I hate to kiss $80 goodbye.

In the app store version, everything is inside the program itself. Right-click PSE>show package contents>contents and you will see it. You will need to authenticate with your OS X password to be able to copy the ImportModules folder to the regular plugins folder.
