Photos lost when upgrading to elements 13

After downloading elements 13 my photos from elements 11 did not transfer in. I even lost the photos in elements 11

I assume you're using Windows 7. If so, I can't help you with the NIK plug-ins, but with the Topaz plug-ins, do this: Computer/OS/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 13/Plug-Ins/Topaz. To translate: go to the desktop, open Computer, then open your computer's built-in hard drive, usually labeled OS, open the folder Program Files, open the Adobe folder, open Photoshop Elements 13 folder, open Plug-Ins folder. It is in the Plug-Ins folder that you want to put your Topaz plug-ins. I simply copied mine from PSE 12's Plug-Ins folder and pasted them in PSE 13's Plug-Ins folder. As for the NIK plug ins, you may be able to do the same thing with them as with the Topaz plug-ins. However, you may not be able to. In my case, I also use on-One software's plug ins and it is a little harder to get them to work. In this case, I have to re-download them from on-One's site and let the installer do its thing, which, of course, means you have to re-enter your license numbers.

Losing photo tags when upgrading

If I upgrade from Elements 10 to Elements 11, will I lose my photo tags that I've already assigned to all my existing photos?

You have to do the upgrade properly, let PSE 11 upgrade the PSE 10 catalog. This should happen the first time you launch PSE11 Organizer (it will ask you if you want to do this, and you say YES or OK).
Tags and other metadata may be lost if you don't do it this way, if you try to import the photos into PSE11.

Web configuration lost when upgrading to advanced server admin

Hello,
after setting correctly the basic configuration,and setting the web servives, we did the upgrade to advanced option and then we focues to other apple problems like getting network connection, starting xgrid,etc), and then is when we realized that the web settings, server name, etc were lost when we moved to the advanced server admin.
grrrrr!
any idea?
thanks

I would most emphatically recommend that you get your boss to sign off on you having no liability nor culpability for any results of work he expects you to do "on the side".
People study and learn for years - and appropriately so ! - in order to accomplish this kind of work effectively and efficiently.
If you are learning and have a non-production environment to work with and potentially wipe & reinstall where need be, then by all means, go for it (start learning).
But otherwise your boss should accept that s/he is getting what they're paying for, and since it is nothing, they should be prepared for that.
It is neither technically nor professionally advisable to foist a task such as this on someone and expect the result(s) to be that of a trained professional in that field. The fundamental concern is the disconnect there, and the unacceptable risk this situation could put you in, either now or in the future.
To the matter at hand, I generally recommend strongly against an upgrade, as compared to a (verified good) backup, wipe and reinstall and configure from the outset as "Advanced."
For computer management, you will want to run your server as an Open Directory Master,
and as such, you must must must have verified working DNS lookup(s) for your server's FQDN, prior to proceeding with re-installing & reconfiguring it.

Plugins when upgrading to elements 13

I have upgraded from Elements 11 to Elements 13. In Elements 11 I regularly used the Nik collection and Topaz Adjust plugins. They have not been installed in the Elements 13. How to I get Elements 13 to recognize these plug ins?

I assume you're using Windows 7. If so, I can't help you with the NIK plug-ins, but with the Topaz plug-ins, do this: Computer/OS/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 13/Plug-Ins/Topaz.

Lost tags, etc. when upgraded from Elements 2 to 6, and XP to Vista on new computer.

I was using Photoshop Album 2 on old XP computer. About a year ago, I got new computer with Vista and I installed Photoshop Elements 6 on it. I had copied files from old computer onto a flash drive, then from the flash drive to the new computer. The pictures came over fine, but I lost all of the tagging. Any way to get that back?

You need to find the PSA2 catalog file, and copy that as well. I believe the default name of the file is My Catalog.psa, but I don't know where it would have been stored. You could search your hard disk for *.psa (turning on the feature to search in hidden fodlers). Then, you will have to convert the catalog to PSE6 (File->Catalog->Convert).
Or, in PSA2, File->Backup Catalog and then in PSE6 File->Restore Catalog

How do I remedy lost old burned in CD music onto a cpu lost when upgrading to iOS 7.1?

I recently and hesistantly upgraded my iphone 4s to the new iOS 7.1 I was nearing maximum capacity on my phone (32g), via indications from itunes and was looking to minimize things I did not need to clean things up and make room for more music. While I typically upgrade iOS wirelessly, I happened to be tethered to my cpu and in itunes this time and have had a bad result from that process and looking for the easiest and safest way of retrieving the music that shows on my phone as there but un playable. Somehow while I have successfully created capacity on my phone, my itunes account now shows a significant amount, if not all, of the music I manully burned into my cpu and merged into itunes from my CD collection no longer resides in my itunes account. Again I see it on my phone under music, butr the text is greyed out and if I click the song it tries to play but then smiply skips through songs with teh same appearance unitl it finds one that I bought from itunes and plays that one?
How can I re activate or re instate my mysteriously lost or un playable music both on my phone and back into my itunes account with out losing it, or other music for that matter, again or having to manually load it back in (not something I'm likely to do). Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I just wanted to add this information to my post:
I have purchaed, free and paid, 618 apps.
In my phone apps to add to my phone when I plug it in my computer only 266 apps show up.
In my itunes "puerchased list" only 266 show up.
Thank God I have not updated my ipad. There I went to my "purchased" under the ALL list in the app store and there I do see my 618 apps!
Where did my other 352 apps go? Which many were paid.
I want my apps back.
Thanks,
Gaby

Date and Time lost when upgraded to PSA/SE 3.0

I have upgraded from Photoshop Album Starter Edition 2.0 to 3.0 - my tags seem to be intact, but the dates on all of the photos reverted back to January 1, 2003 regardless when I took them. There was no warning about this happening, no recommendation to back up the files in a way to save the date info. I had spent hours posting corrected dates into many of my photos when accessed by PSA/SE 2.0 only to have all that work dissappear once the upgrade was installed. I liked being able to search for photos based on approximate date taken. I realize there is not likely any quick way to restore the dates, but if there is I'd sure like to know.

When updating I just followed the prompts. I did not choose to cusom install anything. I let the software do all the work.
A large number of my photos are not in the "Adobe" file and must be reconnected as well. I was hoping that once reconnected the date would return, but, sadly, I was mistaken. As I had mentioned when I first installed 2.0 I had to change the dates and times of all my pre - existing photos. They had also defaulted to January 1, 2003. Now I'm back to square one with them all.

Originals of photos lost when updated to 9.3

I've just installed the iPhoto 9.3 update, and found that I can no longer access edits to any photos more than two years old – which is 80% of my library. Most of those older photos had been cropped or adjusted in some way, and I often need to undo a crop or readjust an edit.
The message I get is "Image Cannot Be Edited. This photo was previously edited with another application or with an earlier version of iPhoto. Duplicate this photo to edit it."
Has the iPhoto library upgrade deleted the originals and replaced them with the final edits? Can I retrieve the originals?

Excellent – thank you.
It's a bit of a faff, but it works. The original is in there, and it opens with preview, but iPhoto won't accept it into the library (because it thinks it's already there). I duplicated it and saved it under a different name, and it imported correctly into iPhoto with its original date and metadata.
So all that's lost, it seems, are the settings I used to edit it from the original to the final edit, should I want to recreate most but not all of that editing process. Seems unfortunate (and somewhat needless) but I can cope with that. Thanks for your help.

Recovering calendar lost when upgrading to iCloud

So I downloaded the new OS10.8 and in short order screwed up. I lost my iCal data (was running 10.6.8).
I have two Apple ID logins - I had a mobile me account (let lapse by not upgrading OS) and the one for my iTunes purchases, etc. I don't think that is any problem, but when I logged into iCloud to begin to resync everything on my laptop with the new OS, I logged in and the calendar data showed up, but the 'Notes" app said something about which email it would use to send me things, and I decided to log out of iCloud and relogin with my other account (other Apple ID). To log out you have to delete the data from all the apps iCould syncs apparently. Long story short I logged out and back in a few times to try to figure out which data was associated with each login and the behavior of iCloud and wound up throwing away my calendar data from the cloud - which is apparently the 'mother' file that pushes to all devices. Luckily (I hope) I did a time machine back up on an external drive just prior to downloading the new OS, so I should have the iCal data somewhere?? I can't figure out a) if that backup was done under the OS 10.6.8, could I just dig up that file without a total restore? b) is there one file that has all my iCal info in one spot (with multiple calendars)? c.) how do I get that file to the cloud under the new OS 10.8 to be the Mother file and push to all my devices?
Thanks for help in advance.
Thanks,
Chuck

So... you aren't in iCloud forum (there is one), this also is not Mac notebook Community, and it isn't a notebook issue. There is a forum for ML.

HT4236 REcover photos lost in upgrade

I do not have backup from Itunes and the phone freeze and I do the recovery and upload a backup from april and I lost photos in between the backup and the icloud set. I want to know if I can recover photos and videos that I lost

I upgraded my iPhone 4 to the iOS 4.2 and about 2,000 photos were wiped. Such a disappointment. Any ideas how to get them back? It looks as though they may be taking up the space on my phone but there is no way to access them (even through iPhoto or Image Capture). The fix explained here also does not work for me (as I had no music files on the phone) http://techcrunch.com/2010/11/22/ios-42-bug/
Thanks!

New Photos Lost when Loading them from Camera to IPhoto

Heres the story. Have a new Powerbook G4, Fuji S7000 Digital Camera, and a Scandisk imagemate Disk Reader for my XD Card. I've used this camera / drive with my PC for a couple years with no issues on importing....but with my Mac, it seems that if I take a group of pictures, and then wait a day and take some more and go to import them are lost. The photos will show on the camera as being take as I always check to make sure I got the shot....but its happened to me twice on my honeymoon where i've taken about 10 photos, and plugged my XD card into the Scandisk reader to import them....and the new photos are GONE. The pictures I'd taken the day earlier are still there...but the new ones are no where to be found. When I remove the disk and put them back in the camera to see if they are there....they are removed from there also. Help!!! I've lost some amazing photos and am getting "spooked" about losing more or even thinking about loading them onto IPhoto. any help / suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Bill,
Until you or someone here can figure out what is going wrong I suggest using Image Capture to download your images. I also suggest you not to use the option of having Image Capture or iPhoto "delete the photos from the camera after downloading" You should always delete the photos from the camera yourself after you have seen they have downloaded safely to your computer.
Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
Under the General button choose
Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

Mail lost when upgrading to Tiger - help!

We finally upgraded to Tiger 9from an earlier version of OS X. When we opened mail, we were prompted to import messages. But only the most recent messages appear in the new mailbox -- we've lost thousands of e-mails!
How can we recover the lost e-mails and import them into the mail program in Tiger?
Thanks!

The conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken. Take a look at the following thread to better understand the problem:
Help! "You need to take this account online in order to download it."
More specifically, if this is a POP account, the following procedure should allow you to fix the Inbox problem. A similar procedure should allow you to fix other mailboxes that might also be affected:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to fix the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
3. Create a new folder on the Desktop and name it however you wish (e.g. Inbox Old). It doesn’t need to have an .mbox extension.
4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/.
5. Move the files mbox and Incoming_Mail out of INBOX.mbox, into the Inbox Old folder just created on the Desktop. These files contain all the messages that were in the mailbox before the upgrade to Tiger, and maybe even some messages that had been deleted. mbox is the most important. Incoming_Mail may or may not be present.
6. Move any strangely-named Messages-T0x... folders to the Desktop (not into the Inbox Old folder). These folders are to be deleted after fixing the problem. They are temporary folders created during an import or an indexing process, and Mail should have deleted them when done. Their presence is a clear indication that something didn’t work as expected. If you’ve been using Mail after the conversion and have already tried to fix the problem by rebuilding the mailbox or something like that, they might contain messages that are neither in Messages proper nor in the mbox file, so keep them around until the problem is fixed.
7. Move everything else within INBOX.mbox, except the Messages folder, to the Trash.
The result of the above should be that INBOX.mbox contains the proper Messages folder only, and the Inbox Old folder on the Desktop contains the mbox and Incoming_Mail (if it exists) files only. Now, proceed as follows:
8. Open Mail.
9. The account’s Inbox should properly display in Mail as many messages as *.emlx files are in ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/. If that’s not the case, select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.
10. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Other as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the Inbox Old folder that’s on the Desktop.
As a result of doing the above, some messages may be duplicated now. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may find useful.
Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move the messages anywhere you want and get rid of the imported mailboxes afterwards.
If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
Take a look at the following article (also referenced in the thread I mentioned at the beginning of this post) to learn what you might have done before upgrading to minimize the risk of this happening, and what you may do after fixing the problem to avoid similar issues from happening in the future. DON’T do now what the article suggests, though, as that would make things worse in the current situation:
Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

All photos disappeared when upgrading from iPhoto 4 to Photo 8.

Yesterday I bought a new MBP 2.5 GHz 15" to substitute my older laptop, an iBook G4 12". In that iBook I used the original iLife package bundled, including the iPhoto 4. All my pictures were stored in an external hard drive, into an iPhoto Library folder.
I used Migration Assistant to transfer all my data from that iBook to my new MBP, through Firewire. Everything went nice except for few programs that weren't universal which I'm still fixing.
When opening the new iPhoto in this MBP, it asked for the iPhoto Library Folder, and I indicated the old folder located at my external hard drive. After selecting it, appeared a dialog box saying that the new iPhoto Library folder wouldn't be readable in older iPhoto versions, and I selected ok. Than it created all my albums inside nicely but to my surprise (and despair) all my pictures were gone. To make things worse, I don't have backup of those hi-res, only the ones formated to my iPhone that I already recovered from it.
I don't know what to do, and I'm desperate since invaluable data from years worth are simply gone because of a stupid upgrade that Apple made. I can't understand how Apple didn't make and option to duplicate the iPhoto folder or ask if I wanted to backup it before upgrading if there was such a risk.
Since this happened I tried to recover the data using Data Rescue II, and I haven't cleaned the trash yet, but I can't find the files. If someone could please give me a suggestion I would really appreciate it.

Migration Assistant is known for not handling iPhoto libraries very well. I suggest you copy the old library again but this time manually and put it in the Pictures folder. Thendownload and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name in the owner section and Staff in the group section. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
After that's complete open iPhoto and let it convert the library again.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Graduated filter migration to lightroom 4 (editing lost when upgrading)

After upgrading from 3 to 4, some editing is lost. In my case, the use of graduated filter with various effects are completely lost. How can I recover the edits?

How did you upgrade? Are the "effects" zeroed or just changed? Did you
update process version to 2012?

HT4236 Is there a way to recover photos lost when phone is accidently restored?

I recently restored my Iphone by mistake. Is there a way to recover my lost photos?

If the photos were not imported by your computer and your iPhone's backup was not updated to include the photos prior to restoring the iPhone, the photos are gone unless you had Photo Stream enabled with your iCloud account settings on the iPhone and all photos in the Camera Roll were copied to your Photo Stream prior to the restore.
iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos on the Camera Roll.
