Pse 9 Restore problems

Using Windows XP and running PSE 6 & 8, I backed up catalogues to disk.  Four years worth.  I cannot restore those disks to my current Mac computer, running PSE 9.  Can anybody help, or are those pics gone forever.  I no longer have access to the original computer, and I no longer have my PSE 6 and PSE 8 applications.

If you are not sure you already have all of your photos on the iMac, the simplest method is backup and restore as suggested by Barbara after firstly upgrading the windows catalog.
If you purchased PSE9 from a shop or online retailer such as Amazon then you should have separate disks in the Box for Mac installation and Windows Installation. Use the windows disk to install PSE9 on the XP machine and select automatic upgrade during the installation process. PSE9 will then upgrade earlier versions already on the XP machine.
You will then need an external hard drive that is compatible with Windows and Mac OS.
Plug in the hard drive to the USB port on the XP machine, then open the PSE9 Organizer and choose File à Backup or press Ctrl+B
When the backup is complete you need to plug-in the external hard drive on the iMac and choose File à Restore in PSE9 Organizer. You navigate to the TLY file which contains the previous catalog.
PS
  The XML files are simply sidecar files. They sit next to the image in the folder and contain any editing done in Camera Raw.

  • Osx Lion Restore Problems

    So I decided to restore my new 2011 21.5 inch imac back to osx lion, I decided this because apparently my macintosh hd wont let my partition it in anyway and i cant put windows on here unless I do a fresh install of lion, then I can do boot camp.
    So I booted into the recovery manager option when you start up your computer and I clicked on restore osx lion.
    It took about 6 hours to download, and then the computer rebooted, and now I dont know what to do, I went back to the restore lion option in that menu and it makes me download it all again.
    Does anyone know what I can do?
    Id  be happy if someone could help with my partitioning problem if they cant help with my restore problem.
    Thanks for the time,
    Dan

    Lion Recovery Assistant should only take a few minutes to download unless you're on the slowest Internet connection known to man. Also OS X is NOT like MS Windows that has to be reinstalled at every hickup. It is INCREDIBLY stable. On the computer I'm using right now in the 4+ years I've owned it it has NEVER needed the OS reinstalled and is totally stable. I have upgraded it from Tiger to Leopard to Snow Leopard and now Lion. It has been through countless updates and still continues to work like it is a new machine.

  • Organizer back up and restore problem in PSE 9

    My attempt to restore my PSE9 catalog from one Windows 7 computer to another Windows 7 computer failed. Though the photos and keywords are there, the keywords are under "imported keyword tags" and my catagories and albums are missing. What do I need to do to get my catagories and albums to restore, with the keywords sorted into them the way they were on the original computer?

    KarenZ wrote:
    Now I see that when I restored the catalog, it created a "User" folder inside the Catalog folder.
    The restored catalog has a 'User' folder just because the original catalog has a 'User / [your name] / Pictures' folder. In the Explorer you only see the 'Pictures' folder which is a shorcut for the above level in Windows explorer. If you have a look at the new restored hierarchy, you'll see that you have duplicated folder names, but not duplicated folders contents. So, there has been no 'User' folder created, only replicated. In the restore process you can choose to keep the original folder tree, which causes the old folder tree to be 'grafted' under the destination folder tree, or not to keep the the same structure, which will simplify and create less subfolders steps, but which will lose your former hierarchy.
    If you have a new hierarchy with 'empty' subfolder steps, you can try to move the populated subfolders to a higher level, skipping the empty subfolders, by drag and drop in the left 'Folders' view panel.

  • PSE 8 printing problem with HP 8750 Printer

    When trying to print oversized (10 x 11) images in PSE 8 with my HP 8750 printer the printed image looks like a postage stamp.  I've done everything the same as I did with PSE7 and the same printer with no problem.  What could the solution to this?  It's quite frustrating, not to mention the ruined 12x12 paper, which is a bit expensive.  I upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit a few months ago and had no problems installing the printer or PSE 8.  Everything has been working smoothly up to this point.  Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Thanks for any help that you can offer.
    Lizzi

    Hi:
    What I should have said is that the image "is the size of" a postage stamp...about 1 inch x 1 inch.
    I'm still wrestling with this.  I finally got a page to print out correctly, now the 2nd page is giving me fits, and I though I wrote down all the settings, but apparently I must have missed one.

  • DV6-3122us/ after and during Factory restore problems

    This is a DV6-3122us 64 bit notebook, 500GB hard drive, 4 GB ram, Windows 7 Home Premium OS. I restored it from the Factory purchased recovery discs, and I had a problem with that, had to do it 3 times kept locking up at 9% on the restore part. It finally went through then said couldn't install, turned it off, and it was installed. This is Windows 7 Home Premium. Now I have lock ups when updating. The HP assistant  loads but says it has errors at the very top, and doesn't show the system information at the bottom. The hard drive only shows 80 GB allocated, and 397 unallocated. This is all the original hardware, which has been tested and has passed, memory has passed. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

    1. Right click on the partition ( C:\ ) you want to Extend into the now unallocated partition and click on Extend Volume.
    2. Click on Next for the Welcome to the Extend Volume Wizard window
    3. Select the amount of space in MB you want to use from the unallocated partition to use to Extend this partition
    4. Select all of the available space .
    5. Click on Next.
    6. Click on Finish in the Completing Extend window
    You will now see the Disk Management console with the new extended partition volume ready to be used.
    7. Close Computer Management.

  • IPad 2 Restore Problem

    So I recently restored to iOS 7.1.1 with iTunes. When I was restoring from an iCloud backup a message popped up saying that the restore can't be completed and that I should choose another backup. I looked at the support articles where it's said that I should check iCloud Server Status. There everything was normal. So I selected another backup, but the problem still persisted so I decided to do a restore with iTunes again, but that didn't work. So I decided to set up my iPad as a new iPad and erased all the content and settings. Didn't work. So now I'm stuck here with my iPad failing to get the iCloud Backup data to my device. I never had a problem like this before. Please help!

  • System Restore problem on Satellite C660-115

    Hello everyone,
    The Satellite C660-115 my niece has a problem and I would like to make it serviceable for his Christmas.
    Turning on the computer's voltage giving as final result the message: * Can not find the operating system will ", so I tried System Restore by first pressing the 0 key, and after many tests, changing the order of the boot and the other (with F2 or F12) ... But there was nothing.
    From there, I realized that I could not go further without original recovery DVD from Toshiba. So I ordered last Saturday and got today Thursday. After as indicated by Toshiba (boot sequence beginning on CD drive), the system begins to upload (Windows is loading files ...) and then propose, on a nice table, the available languages, and choose .. .dropoff window
    If, until then, everything seemed to unfold as it should, that's that clicking the "next" button to validate my choice of language an error message appears in a dialog box named RecoGUI:
    ERROR:. IOCTL_GET_DISK_LENGTH _INFO \\ \ PHYSICALDRIVE0 The device is not ready.
    When I press OK, then it is in French:
    The hard disk # 0 is not available or incorrect RAID configuration!
    I still presses OK (I do not have much choice) and then present the following window restoration that requires me to validate the language of the operating system to install ... French (Windows Win 7)
    and states: The current size of restoration is to: Expert Mode
    Again, I click OK and a warning box warns me that: All hard drives will be completely erased. Would you like to continue?
    OK ... and cmd prompt appears that says (in short)
    Checking for Drive V: V Drive not mounted ...
    Ckecking for Drive C: ... C: unmounted!
    ending with: ERROR Copying of Recovery Base files failed!
    Press any key to continue (if I do, I find the Toshiba screen, and another cmd prompt that says so;
    Waiting for ODD To Become available ...
    ODD Drive D: ready.
    Check for medium in Drive D; ...
    Continue ...
    Drvload: Successfully loaded X: \ Windows \ inf \ battery.inf.
    No RAID - Normally continues ...
    Installation in progress ...
    Press any key to continue ... which, if I do, then placed below:
    X: \ Windows \ system32>
    That's where I stayed, because I always come back to the same.
    Could someone be kind enough to help me solve this problem?
    A big thank you in advance ...

    From my point of few we should consider two possible issues.
    1) faulty image on the new recovery disk
    2) problem with HDD as well as the partitions
    In my opinion you should check the HDD firstly.
    You can run some tests, for example you could try to install the Windows system using a clean Microsoft Windows CD (image)
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit image can be downloaded here:
    http://msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net/msvista/pub/X15-65733/X15-65733.iso
    But of course, you will not be able to activate this system without a valid serial key
    So you can use this image just for testing purposes.
    In case the image installation would run flawlessly, your recovery installation problem might be related to the faulty recovery media.
    In such case you should try to contact the recovery media provider in order to get another, new good working media.

  • Ipod Shuffle Restore problem

    I was trying to add songs to my ipod shuffle today. but it told me to restore it as it is currupt; and so I did. However, when I clicked restore on itunes 7.0.2, the progress bar began to move; but i waited for over 2 hours, and it still didnt complete.
    I could still listen to the music on my ipod as well as carry everyday tasks with it. But my computer refused to restore it.
    p.s. it didnt show the ipod in windows explorer nor in itunes, only in device manager. I fixed this by using the "Safetly Remove Hardware" tool, then replugging it in.
    Also when using the ipod software to update my ipod, it crashed.
    I'd suspect it as an usb fault, but im not sure.
    Please help me solve this problem, thanks in advance!

    after my 20G crashed a co worker loaned me his shuffle to hold me over until I made a new purchase. It seems like every time you upgrade in ITunes it creates problems. I have experienced mutiple problems with this guys Shuffle (corrupt messages, Ipod not recognized in USB). After several restores on another PC I was able to load my music again only to not have all the songs play on the shuffle. When docked, I can see them but they won't play. I have restored, deleted, reloaded everything. I don't know what else to do.
    The problem seems to be with purchased songs only.
    I find the docking to a new pc helps with the restoring issue. Once back to the factory settings, try docking to pc with Itunes library and see what happens.
    If anyone can weigh in on my issue, I would appreciate the help.
    I can't live without my music!!

  • Apple TV 1st gen Factory Restore Problems

    I have an Apple TV 1st generation that I tried to do a factory restore on.  I did not unplug durring the progress bar.  It then started up with the apple, then the opening video with all the tv screens.  It asked me for the language, I selected English, then had me choose the correct internet connection so I typed in the password for our Wi-Fi, then it came up with the code to connect to our home computer and started flashing a new code every 2 seconds.  I unplugged the Apple TV and waited about a minute then plugged back in.  It again had the normal start up, but then after the opening video it began flashing between a screen with the apple then a blank black screen then to a menu screen and cycling through each screen about every 1-2 seconds.  I unplugged again and waited about 10 minutes but then had the same results.  Is there anyway I can do another system restore as I cant get it to stop flashing. 

    I FIXED IT!!!  So here is how to fix your Apple TV 1st generation if you are having the problems listed above.  I am listing it step by step as I have not found the solution to my problem ANYWHERE and I have been looking all day and figured it out myself.  Here we go:
    If you have done a FACTORY RESTORE and it is now flashing different through different screens I recomend doing a FORCED RESTART from the totally awesome guys at MethodShop, here is the link: http://methodshop.com/gadgets/tutorials/appletv-fix/
    If their instructions do not fix your problem here is what I figured out (assuming the diagonstic test says that your Apple TV is working correctly).
    Keep your Apple TV plugged in, and allow it to go to sleep.  It can take up to 45 minutes.  Once it has gone to sleep (the screen will have photos scrolling on the TV) press the MENU button on the remote to wake it up.  The Apple TV will wake up on the MENU screen.  Scroll down to SETTINGS then select SYSTEM UPDATE.  Follow all instructions to update the system to the current update. 
    WARNING: If you take too long once you have woken up the Apple TV it will start freaking out again and you will have to let it go to sleep again.
    I have tried this twice now to make sure the first time was not a fluke and its working perfect now.
    Hope this helps someone else!

    I hope that by now you have that problem solved.
    It is in fact infuriating. I've been there...
    And that is only one of the vast array of problems Nokia PC software brought me.
    However I recently reinstalled Nokia Nseries PC Suite latest version, and just out of curiosity I tried the backup and restore, and bingo, it worked fine.
    But as it was too good to be true, the included Nokia Music Manager refuses to run.

  • Iphone Sim Card problems and updating and restoring problems

    I bought a iphone about 1 year ago and about 2 months ago i was not able to see any wifi connections in the area or connect to any even though i was sure that there was a wifi nearby and my fellow coleauges could connect to it with their iphone. I thought that this might have something to do with the "restrictions" so i went to turn the restrictions off but realised that it had a passcode that i had forgotten. I wasnt able to restore it within the iphone so i restored it from my computer. Once i had finished the iphone had a " connect to itunes " on the screen and it said that there was no sim car installed, even though there was. I tried cleaning the sim card and everything else, i tried connecting it to itunes but it just said no sim card installed. Now i cannot use my iphone or cant even activate it. I have also tried to restore it in recovery mode but ended up with the same problem. Please Help.! Thanks

    This forum is not a catch all problems one.

  • Windows 7 & PSE 8 printing problem

    I have Windows 7 and just installed PSE 8. When I go to print in editor (select printer is correct)...and hit print.... The printer changes to wanting to send a fax.  None of my other programs have a problem printing including CS5. I can print from the organizer.   This is a new computer and printer/fax machine. I have spent hours trying different things to no avail. I have had several versions of PSE and always was able to print from the editor.  Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    I had exactly the same problem with the same configuration; WIN7 (64 bit) and PSE 8.  After reading that deleting the FAX driver worked for you, I went to Control Panel > Devices and Printers.  My printer/fax shows up as two separate devices: HP Photosmart Prem-Web C309n-s, and HP Photosmart Prem-Web C309n-s fax.  I renamed the fax entry only, by inserting my initials at the front of the device name (before HP) ... et Voila!, PSE 8 can now find and print to the printer device rather than the fax device.  This should allow you to select and use the fax device when desired, by any program.
    To rename the device, go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers > Highlight the fax entry > Select the Toolbar's File entry > Select Printer properties > Select General Tab.  You may rename the device name here, whereas the regular properties displays don't let you rename.
    Thanks for asking the question, and posting your own resolution.  I am sure that we are not alone with this issue.

  • PSE 9 printing problem with Epson printer

    hello there,
    I am using PSE 9  with Windows XP and Epson 3880 printer. I have re-installed all programs/drivers a couple of times. PSE9 Printer dialogue will not let me print choosing "Let Photoshop Manage Colour".  It will only let me print with "Let Printer Manage Colour".  I am using Epson papers.
    When I select "Let Photoshop Manage Colour", a box appears saying "ICC profile no longer available" and it won't let me print.  Is this a PSE 9 problem or an Epson problem?
    thanks !!!

    Well, I actually found the answer. I spoke to an Epson Rep!
    I used to have the Epson 2200 printer, then the Epson 3800, and now I use the 3880 printer on Windows XP and Windows 7 on my laptop.
    When you uninstall the other 2 printers, the color profiles are still in your program files and can become corrupted.
    This is why, in PSE 9, when I checked the box Let Photoshop Elements Manage Colour, it woildn`t print and instead there was the pop-up box ``ICC profile no longer available`` because it was trying to access the old paper profiles and not the ones that came with the 3880. I use Epson papers, by the way.
    The solution was to go into C-Drive, Program Files, System 32, spool,drivers, colour, and this opens to the ICC profiles used by the printer. Then I deleted the old paper profiles associated with my former printers.
    And it worked !!

  • Restoring problem, Out of Free space

    OK, here is my problem.
    I am trying to restore from a backup and I get the following message:
    iTunes could not restore the iPhone "iPhone" because the backup could not be saved on the computer.
    Additionally my computer will say Low Disk Space:
    You are running on very low disk space on C:......
    The problem is when this first appeared I removed about 5GB worth of programs on my C drive and when I tried to restore the same problem again.
    I think that maybe when you try to restore it starts to put the information on your computer before transferring to IPhone. If that is correct, how can I delete those restores that didn't go through? (I.e. I had over 5GB of space at the start of the restore process and now I have zero space.) I think part of the problem is I have tried to restore like 6 times thus, taking up more and more space.
    Thanks in advance for the help, I am so frustrated right now. I tried looking up the answer myself online but had no luck.

    AppleRunner1,
    Right Click Start> Click Explore> Find your iTunes folder, this should contain a folder labeled previous iPhone Back-ups, erase what you need to. But be careful if you erase the wrong one you could lose alot of your most recent data i.e. contacts apps and music.
    Hope this helps,
