Moving pictures from laptop to EHD, keeping photoshop elements 10 on laptop need more space

I have asked this question in another forum and came so close to getting a resolution but the person was not familar with photoshop elements 10.
He suggested a drag and drop method but could not give me any specific step by step directions.
Can anyone help me?
Please read my previous question posted I believe it was Sept 25 or close to that time.

Thank you for your response.
Can you explain step by step how to drag and drop within the elements organizer.
The directions that I was given by someone in my previous post was for later elements.  I have elements 10.
Does anyone have any help with making sure pictures do not get corrupted in the transfer?  I have a lot of pictures to transfer to the new EHD and do not want to have to go through my pictures one by one on my back up to find the picture and get on the new EHD
I have only had nightmares when changing to an updated version of PSE or to a new computer even though I have followed the directions on the photoshop web site.  I am so so afraid that this will be an even bigger nightmare  because I can find no step by step directions on how to do this.

  • Moving pictures from laptop to iPad

    Trying to move pictures from laptop to the iPad. Made the mistake of putting them here in the first place, but now I have the adapter to connect to my tv so we can show pictures to folks on a bigger screen.

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Moving picture from laptop hard drive to larger external hard drive

    I am not changing anything in my system.  I am using windows 7 and will continue to.  No change in elements version (10).  Please give me a step by step instructions on how to move my pictures from my computer hard drive to an external hard drive (this will NOT be a back up) but the primary locaton for my pictures.  I will keep elements program on my computer and when I want to work on my pictures or download more pictures from my camera  I will connect to the external hard drive.

    A few questions
    When I drag and drop my pictures am I looking at my pictures in elements organizer?
    No, there are two ways to see your folders in PSE11 and PSE12 :
    By default, it's the 'My Pictures' view. It shows a flat list of all the folders containing images registered in the catalog; all the folder of the last level, without the tree organization. You may have missed (like many, many users...) the 'Pictures' view which you obtain in clicking on the small yellow icon in the title bar of 'My Pictures'. You are shown all your folders and subfolders, all your different drives. It's very close to the folder view of Windows explorer, and you can do most of the operations you would do in the explorer.
    You'll understand better if you take the time to play with the 'Pictures' view, where you can collapse or expand subfolders, or right click to show 'display all folders' when they are collapsed.
    Let's say you have all your pictures under the default 'Pictures' folder of Win7. You should see the list of your drives in the lower part of the same left panel.
    I suppose you don't want to change the default 'Pictures' location in Win7. If your external drive has the letter F:, you'll create a new master folder : 'F:/My Pictures bis' for instance. To test the process, you'll select one of your folders under Pictures, drag and drop on F:/My Pictures bis. Then you can check the result by viewing your pictures in different order, by testing your tags, albums etc. All should work exactly the same as before as long as your external drive is plugged in. (If it is not, you'll get 'missing files' warnings which will disappear if you plug in your external drive).
    When you are satisfied with the process, you can move other folders (their subfolders will follow).
    You could move only the upper level 'Pictures' folder of Win7 in a single step, but you'll feel more secure by doing this in several moves, since moving a big amount of files takes a long time (not longer than a move via the explorer,  moving a library of 150 GB like mine requires maybe 2 hours...)
    Since you are on Win7, be sure to give all the access rigths to your external drive...
    Another Windows trick : the catalog will remember and register the letter drive, F: in our example.
    If you plug-in another  accessory in the meantime and the drive is now assigned G:, you'll have problem.
    The best way to avoid such a case would be to assign a letter like M: so that your external drive will be recognized in all cases.

  • How do i  create space on the start up disk by moving pictures from i photo but keeping them readily available

    how do i get pictures off of my start up disk but in a way that i can recll them into iphoto

    You will first of all need an external hard drive. There are lots of them available. Search MacSales or NewEgg for one that suits your needs. Get one that is bigger than you think you'll need.
    Once you have an external drive, format it using Disk Utility (in the /Applications/Utilities folder) if it has not already been formatted to work with a Mac.
    Copy your Pictures folder (which should contain your iPhoto library) to the new hard drive.
    Launch iPhoto while holding down the option key on your keyboard. It will ask you to select an iPhoto library. Select the library on the external hard drive. Confirm that all your pictures are there and you can work with them.
    Drag the iPhoto library that is in your Pictures folder on the internal hard drive to the Trash.
    Empty the Trash.
    You should now have a bunch more space on your hard drive.
    If you have not been backing up your data religiously, start using the external hard drive to do so (be sure to get a nice BIG drive so you have plenty of room for backups.) Also realize that since your iPhoto library is now stored on the external drive, backing it up again to that drive is not particularly useful. I suggest burning all your important photos to DVDs. If the photo library is too big for that, get another external hard drive and back up to that. Data security is important.

  • I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac.  I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " the picture you are trying to print is in the iphoto library"  what can i do to be able to print a photo from iphoto

    I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac.  I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " unreadable file: the following file could not be imported.  the file is in the iphoto library folder"  also when i try to print a picture from iphoto i get a message that says "no page was selected"
    not sure what happened but i can pnly print when i drop the photo onto my desktop as an 8.5 x 11 size picture and i am trying to print 4x6's

    Since the new library gives you the same message log into another user account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto without getting that message.  If you get that message there also a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,

    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all available updates to it.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Note:
    Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use...

  • How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12?

    How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12? Do I restore from a backup?  I have over 12,000 pics ( a good portion with multiple versions) and don't want to lose captions and metadata. Thank you in advance for your help.

    If this is on the same computer just install PSE 12. It should find your old catalog and upgrade it to PSE 12. If for some reason it doesn't, then go to file>manage catalogs, find your old catalog and tell PSE 12 to convert it.
    If this is a new computer, then yes, full backup and restore.

  • I cannot download my pics from my flash drives into Photoshop elements 11.

    I cannot dowmload my pics from my flash drives into Photoshop elements 11. Each time I try it gets to about 15% and then Photoshop crashes. It is not the flash drives as other programmes on my computer open them without a problem. Please help

    Hi Neale,
    That was my first thought as well, I do know that Photoshop sometimes gets a surge of shite to the brain and refuses to download the movie formats.
    However after your mail I went again, through every individual pic/, about 1500 of them and yea, you were right there was one bloody movie file.
    Thanks so much really appreciate your help.

    Hi keltystu,
    You are doing 2 things wrong:
    1. you are trying to run EXE file(installer) on MAC
    2. You are trying to run a very old application on latest configuration which is not compatible and may not fulfill the appropriate requirement.
    Thanks

  • How can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

    how can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

    You can download the 7.1 DNG converter to make copies of your canon raw files in the adobe dng format, which can then be opened in pse 9.
    As said above the the latest camera raw plugin 6.5 for pse 9 won't open those files directly, but will open the the converted dng files.

    how do i get photos from iphoto library over to photoshop elements 10 for editing?
    this is an iMac that I just got so its all new to me...
    thank you

    If you set PSE as external editor, be sure you pick the right file, which is not by any means the logical choice. You want this one:
    You can also export the photos from iphoto, edit them and save them under new names and reimport the edited photos as new files. This is more trouble, but lets you save as many different versions of your image as you like (iphoto only remembers the last edited version + original).
