PE7 Catalog Restore in Win7

I did a complete catalog backup of my 18,800 photo catalog to an external hard drive before I upgraded my PC to Win7 Ultimate and now when I'm going to restore it I'm getting over 5,200 photos that are disconnected. I've tried restoring both to the original folder structure and used the option to ignore the original folder structure, but the same problem happens either way. To make matters worse, I've gone through the tedious process of reconnecting all the photos (more than once), but every time I have, when I quit the program and come back, they're disconnected again.
I've read some other forums online and seen somewhat similar discussions, but none of the methods discussed seemed to work (other than tricks to speed up the reconnecting process).So, does anyone have any ideas? This seems like it should be really straightforward, but I've already wasted hours on it...
One other point worth mentionining is that the photos that keep getting disconnected are in folders called My Catalog-xxxxxxx where the xxx's are replaced by a long string of numbers. I have upgraded from previous versions of PE over the years and these are older photos, so I'm guessing they were created by previous versions of the app. The photos are definitely in those folders, but the app cannot find them.
Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated.
Bob

Thanks John...here it is.

So, my question now, is, how do I fix it? As I mentioned, I did a complete backup of the entire catalog to an external drive, then tried to restore it (both using PSE 7, btw) and came across these problems--which, theoretically--I should not.

    Hi:
    I can't help you with that specific issue, but if you can't get it resolved and you can read the 25 character Microsoft Windows product key on the bottom of your PC, make your own W7 installation media to reinstall W7.
    Here's how:
    If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
    Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
    Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
    Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
    Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

  • Can I delete these files (see screen shot) after a catalog restore?

    I have Photoshop Elements Organizer version 9.0.3.0 and am running Windows 7 64-bit SP1.
    After I got a new computer, I created a backup of my catalog (via the file drop-down menu in Elements Organizer).
    I then restored the catalog to my new computer (via the same drop down menu in Elements Organizer).  It went fine and my catalog is just as I left it.
    Now I'm trying to clean up the look of things in my "My Pictures" folder (I'm a little OCD, lol).  The restore made a folder within a folder within a folder... so I was wondering if I can delete all these files that the restore made? (see screen shot) This is the entire contents of one of the folders the restore created.  The other folder just contained all my photos by themselves.
    I don't know what all those folders do, so want to make sure they will not damage/corrupt my catalog or the organizer if I delete them.  I will later make another back-up, of course.  I'm hoping that all these files will just recreate themselves?  I just want to delete them so I can get rid of so many excess folders in my "My Pictures."  I just like to click "My Pictures" and have my pictures be RIGHT THERE.  It's annoying to have to click through like 4 folders to get to them after this catalog restore.
    Thanks for any guidance!

    @99jon,
    Thank you for your help!  And, dang it, I did choose a custom location for the restore.  The instructions I was following said to do that (I didn't really know what I was doing so I made sure to follow them to a 'T').  Looks like the file path for the catalog *is* pointing to that folder in the screen shot of my original question here. 
    So does this mean there is no way to delete them?  I wish I could just start fresh (but of course still have my catalog with all my images and the right categories/keyword tags, etc).  I don't mind the wait for regenerating things or moving things and stuff. 
    I don't remember ever seeing all those breeze files and cache files, etc, on my old computer.  I never saw any files of the sort until I did the back-up.... of course, maybe that's because they were stored somewhere other than right inside "My Pictures?"

  • Problems with Catalog Restore

    Using Photoshop Elements 6
    Am trying to restore on a new computer from a computer that died.
    I had a backup.  The files were originally on a drive H: on the old computer.
    When the old drive was placed in the new computer, it was recognized as E:
    Did the restore to a new directory on C:, keeping the original folder structure.
    Everything looks fine.  There are now files on the C: drive in the directory I specified.
    Except Organizer shows E: as the drive in the file properties.
    If you disconnect the E: drive, Organizer thinks the files are detacted and only has the thumbnails
    At that point Organizer shows the "H:" drive in the file properties.
    I'm not understanding why the restore would put the files on C: but still use E: as the source.
    I tried the reconnect, but Organizer says that there are no files to reconnect.
    All this is making me totally rethink if I want to trust a catalog system to manage files.
    This is fine if it works, and up to now it's worked really well.
    I'm hoping this is something simple I'm overlooking or that there is a simple fix.
    Thanks in advance for you help.
    - Craig

    The output is below.
    I did the reconnect all, and apparently it did reconnect some of the files this time when the E: drive was disconnected, but many are not.  There was a dialog box that listed them, and some show the question mark in the organizer.  Is there any way to reconnect these hundreds (or thousands) of files that aren't connected.  I don't understand why it would find some but not the others.
    I appreciate the help.

  • Moving a Photoshop Elements 3.0 Catalog -- Restore Fails

    I have tried to use the back-up / restore-to-new-location method to move a PSE 3.0 (Windows XP) catalog from my hard drive to a mounted network drive (Seagate Black Armor NAS 220).  The backup works correctly, but the restore doesn't quite work.  The files do get copied to the new network drive location appropriately, both using and not using the full former directory structure, but the catalog file that is created still references the original hard drive locations of the files.  I also tried this after (finally) adding the PSE 3.0.1 patch as well, with the same results.
    It is hard to believe that an issue like this wouldn't have ever been  fixed.  Has anyone successfully moved a catalog in 3.0/3.0.1 via this method, or has anyone else seen this issue?  Are there any fixes or alternate methods out there?
    Being that the .psa catalog files are Access databases (in the old versions of PSE), I'm about to try directly updating the catalog file for the correct locations, since I can do it fairly easily (i.e. via SQL instead of file-by-file location updates)., but I still think there has to be a way to do this without resorting to modifying the catalog file directly.
    Thanks,
    Doug Newton

    Doug,
    First I want to say that I have no idea how effectively PSE 3 will process a catalog or the photo files residing on a Network drive. I mention this explicitly to that you do not interpret any other comments that I make as encouraging you to run from the Network drive with PSE 3.
    I have more expereince with this in PSE 4 when periodically using a Backup and Restore scenario to take a catalog and photo files from a desktop machine to an old laptop. 
    What I did experience was that if photo files were still referenceable at the previous folder location then the PSE 4 Restore command did not update the PSE Catalog pointers to the new folder location. This symptom does appear to be similar to your current problem with PSE 3.
    Therefore I changed my process to make the previous folder location not referenceable (even with any automatic adjustments that for userid differences on different machines that PSE Restore would make) before doing the Restore command.  That did solve the problem of the catalog pointers to the photo files of the restore not being updated.
    In your case, since you say you know how to do the SQL to adjust the catalog database, that might be a good option. Otherwise you could delete what was placed on the Network drive, make the original photo file folders not addressable and then do the PSE 3 Restore again.
    A general but I think important comment.
    Usually I do not recommend people upgrading to a new version just for the sake of upgrading. However in your case, you are running version 3 (which was the very first version which had the Organizer combined in to Photoshop Elements) and yet you are expanding your use of Windows operating system functions to practices common now but not common for consumers back in 2004 when PSE v3 was first available.  
    Therfore I suggest that you consider upgrading your version of Photoshop Elements.
    I am not saying go to PSE v8. PSE 7 does seems to be still available from reliable sources.  Some people still run PSE 5.

  • Catalog Restore crashes Photoshop Elements 4.0

    I appreciate that I have an old product (Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0), but it has worked perfectly for several years on an IBM R50e laptop running Windows XP SP3.
    I need to replace my old laptop and have installed the product on an Acer Aspire laptop running Windows. I selected the option to run it in compatibility mode and I have tested it carefully using my old catalog on an external drive.
    As far as I can tell everything works perfectly apart from one thing.
    I can backup the catalog succesfully, but when I try to restore the catalog (using the option from the file menu, Photoshop Elements crashes.
    This compromises completely my future use of the product, as I will not be able to rely on a backup to restore if I get problems.
    Is there any advice, solution or workaround that you can suggest?
    I am keen not to lose my 1000's of photographs!

    Hallo, can you speak or write in german? I can`t English very well.

  • IPod 6th Gen won't restore on Win7 but will on Win8

    I bought a 6th generation 80GB iPod classic from eBay. I've tried everything to get it to connect and sync using iTunes but it's nothing but issues. It will initially connect and tell me it's corrupted but I get either a 1415 or 1439 error. I've been through all of that troubleshooting multiple times as well as the 5Rs with no success. I've run chkdsk /r and performed a low level format, restarted, and tried to restore but still nothing. I'm running 64-bit Windows 7 on a Toshiba Satellite. I have access to 2 other laptops: a Lenovo, also running 64-bit Windows 7 and a newer model Toshiba Satellite running 32-bit Windows 8. The Lenovo gives me the exact same issues but the Satellite running Win8 does not. I am able to connect, restore and sync with no issues. I haven't been able to find a similar situation through all of my Google searches. Does anyone know what could possibly be the issue with my (Win7) laptop? Some setting or missing files/update?

    appreciate your response - just tried this approach. cycled to apple sign, so I plugged into usb cord, immediately went to that **** do not disconnect warning - will let it set for a while to see what materializes.
    Couple questions - out of curesicity (sp) -
    1) when you plugged in did the system reconize your ipod? I thought there was a spot between store and playlists that ID's the devce - i see nothing. use to say the name I had set for my iPod
    2) did you ever have to go thru restore?
    3) did you have to pull down your playlists from your library to sync - I can not get to the "sync Ipod" selection
    I have wiped all apples files and restarted from scratch - still no luck.
    again thanks,

  • Error 'RecoveryMgr.exe is not a valid Win32 application' when trying to restore in Win7

    I really hope someone can help as this is driving me mad!
    System details - G62 Notebook running Windows 7
    The notebook crashed after a Windows update and wouldn't boot up.  I made it into the recovery manager and back my files before restoring to factory settings. 
    Since getting back in I am unable to get my files back.  I have tried through the recovery manager but it does not allow me to see the files on the dvd.  I have also tried through backup and restore but no joy there either.  When I click on RecoverMgr.exe on the dvd I get error 'RecoveryMgr.exe is not a valid Win32 application' and it won't open.
    I hope someone has managed to solve this before as I would love my files back.  All suggestions greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

    Thanks Mumbodog.  Unfortunately I have tried and the files won't copy.  Starting to think they are corrupt!  Have tried on a few different PC's but no luck.  Really annoyed   Any other suggestions?

  • How can I open a catalog created on Win7 LR 1.4.1 on new Mac with latest LR 3.6 download? Too new!!!

    Any ideas please...I have transferred the media files and catalogs via my network, definitely onto the pictures folder of my MP 2011 Intel Mac. I go to open the catalog and get this peculiar message saying..
    The Lightroom catalog named “Lightroom 3 Catalog” cannot be opened because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom. Would you like to select a different catalog?
    The catalog appears to have been created by a version of Lightroom that is newer than the Lightroom version you are using.
    Is the Mac latest 3.6 version of LR really older and unable to read a latest PC 1.4.1 coded catalog?
    Is there anyway of saving the PC generated Catalog in an older catalog format d=so that a mac with 3.6 LR can read it?
    any answers very greatfully received!!

    I know this was a long time ago, but just in case someone else has this problem.  It happened to me and what happened is that I still had LR 3 installed on my computer.  Instead of opening LR4, I opened LR3 and it had some photos missing.  When I went for my backups, of course they were too new, because they were created with LR4 and I was using 3.  Both were side by side and I didn't realize I had opened the wrong one.

  • Properly Restoring a Catalog

    I have a new computer.  I copied my entire My Docs, including My Pictures folders to my new computer.  I originally backed up my catalog on the old computer under PE7.  However, when I restored it on PE9 on my new computer I realized I didn't include my keyword tags.  So I created another backup on my old computer under PE7 and restored it again.  It worked.  Everything looks fine in PE9 including tags.  However, when I look at My Pictures through Windows Explorer seems the restore created duplicates.  I have some pictures three times after doing two restores.  The duplicates do not exist on the old computer.  What is the proper way not only to restore the catalog but ensure pictures don't get duplicated in the My Pictures folders?  Every single picture in My Pictures is in the PE7 catalog.  Thanks.

    "I copied my entire My Docs, including My Pictures folders to my new computer."
    This is not necessary when you use back-up and restore.

  • Photoshop elements 5.0.2 restore catalog

    I recently had to rebuild my Vista 32 bit operating system.  After that I installed PSE 5.0.2 and Premiere Elements 3.0.2 again.  After the installations had completed I started PSE with the "view and Organize photos" option and then went to RESTORE catalog so that I could restore from a full catalog backup I had taken earlier.  The restore appeared to be successful but when I remove the last CD from a multi-CD backup, PSE just seemed to freeze up.  When I start the task monitor it indicates that PSE is "not responding".  After that I terminate PSE.  I have reinstalled both Adobe applications several times with the same results.  I have also deleted the MY Calalog.PSA entries and all entries in the my pictures folders so that the next catalog restore I did would have a clean start.  Nothing changed.  I have thousands of photos in this catalog and really need to get it restored.
    I should add that the first time I restored the catalog after reinstalling PSE it appeared to be successful.  The collections and tags were there.  I then decided to create an new catalog with the name "My Catalog 2009" for any future pictures to reside in.  After that I was never able to get PSE to run again.  Anytime I started it, it appeared to freeze up.
    I checked another thread with a similar problem that suggested starting PSE and hitting cntl, alt, shift inorder to get to catalog selection entries.  I did that and renamed "My Catalog" to something else.  Then when PSE started I created another catalog and put on picture in it.  That worked fine.  Then I restored the catalog from another full backup,  thinking the one I had previously used was bad.  But the same thing happened again.  After the restore had complete PSE froze up.  All my full backups can't be bad.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I'm not sure about the backup problem.
    Freezing when you open PSE 5.0.2 in Vista is fixed via this: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb400848&sliceId=1
    Guess: This could fix the backup problem as well.

  • All photos duplicated after restoring Photoshop Elements 11 catalog

    I recently had my computer reformatted and notice that following Photoshop Elements reinstall and catalog restore all my photos have been duplicated in the Adobe/digital photos folder. I have read that this is due to my computer tech restoring all photos in the original folder structure prior to me executing the catalog restore (I should have done my research first). My question is what can I do now to eliminate the duplicates? Do I delete all photos and the Adobe folders or is there an alternative?

    Al Markunas wrote:
    The duplicates are in the same folder tree structure and, yes, the restore renamed them with a -1 suffix. The pictures with the -1 suffix are the ones I see in the Organizer.
    There is no 'smart' way to get rid of the files previously copied on your drive, but I would use the ability of the the Organizer to move folder trees on your drive.
    First I would create a new master folder outside of the old tree structure.
    Then I would work in 'Pictures' view in the left panel of PSE11.
    I would select a branch of the folder tree as a test, and drag and drop it to the new folder. Tip : there must be at least a file in that master folder to make it appear in the left panel. Then, from the Windows explorer, I would check that only the previously copied media files are showing in the moved branch... and delete the branch altogether in the Explorer.
    Once you  master the process, you can either move all your remaining folder tree from the Organizer, and delete the remaining duplicates from the Explorer or you can move branches separately.
    Be patient! Moving files requires time and you should not abort the move operation to avoid creating more duplicates.
    The main penalty of your situation is the renaming of your files with a suffix, but that does not prevent you to use 100% of the Organizer features.

  • Import Catalog from PE7?

    Does anyone know how to import a PE7 catalog into Lightroom 2.1? All it seems to want to do is import PE6 catalogs.

    It should be able to import Catalog from DVD. It won't open a Catalog on Dvd, just like it won't on a network drive.

  • Missing catalog: help me recover Organizer albums/content

    When a drive was replaced April 2014 on a Win7 computer, the old Adobe Elements Organizer 12.0.0.0 catalog went missing.
    The default new one has been in use since for new projects. It has been Optimized and Repaired, no change.
    I'm trying to find the old catalog for use.  Searched for *.TLY *.TLU *.BUC and catalog.*
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\CONVERTED ELEMENTS 9\catalog_1.pse12db is 312MB.
    Double-click or right-click/Open of this file does nothing.
    Help!
    There is a .buc file from January 2014 on an external drive, but no .TLY or .TLU with it and "catalog restore" does not cope when browsed to it.
    There is a .tly from March 2013 that is currently in the process of "restoring" to a new location, but that's missing more than a year of projects.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Andaleeb,
    Thanks for your reply.  I had asked earlier if it’s possible to retrieve it from a backup of Elements 7 program files.  I did not specifically do a backup of the catalog because at that time I didn’t know I had to in order to import it into the new Elements 11.  I had planned to just install 11 & move over the catalog then remove E7 from my computer.  Unfortunately things didn’t happen that way due to my computer having troubles. As was noted in an earlier thread.
