Re-Initialising Elements 11 data areas after re-installing it

I have installed Elements 11 onto a new Windows 8 PC. Due to that installation process causing an issue with the CD R/W drive I have properly uninstalled Elements and cured the CD drive issue with an Adobe support procedure. I have also deleted all photo files on the PC out of My Pictures but after re-installing Elements 11 the program still seems to have thumbnails from its previous installation although they do not appear to have real files behind them. I have a mass storage device with all the photo files and I wish to start from scatch and re-load them for Elements to recognise them as if for the first time.
How can I completely re-initialise Element's data to 'no pictures' and so allow me to start again?

Exit PSE.
Open PSE just to the Welcome Screen and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift (Mac: Cmd + Opt + Shift) and keep pressing.
Click on "Edit" from the Welcome Screen but keep pressing the keyboard keys - don't let up.
You will get a little dialog box asking if you want to delete the settings file. Click "Yes." You can let go of the keyboard keys now.
This will rebuild the file for you and often solves the issue.

Help! External HD data lost after Leopard install!

After a quirky install of Leopard that included an error message for the install DVD itself, it seems that installation has been completed and this was confirmed by Apple CS. This install was on an iMac. Apple said to disregard the error message. It "appears" to have installed, but has been quirky on not shutting down when directed, and also not ejecting disks. No prior problems whatsoever with this machine -- before Leopard yesterday morning.
BUT, the external hard drive (Western Digital 80 GB) that was connected to the iMac comes up empty after the install. That's right, EMPTY! Critical client data gone! The only item on the disk is that dark gray icon with a yellow "exec" in the upper left corner (a Unix Executable File apparently).
Efforts to assess/fix External HD issue:
1. Disk utility reveals an error-free disk with no data (both permissions and disk repair). Same problem-free assessment by disk utility for the newly Leoparded machine, too.
2. Western Digital diagnostic says all ok with disk -- ran on another machine.
3. No data when connected to Leopard MacBook or other iMac running Tiger or other iMac in Windows mode.
4. Phone consult with ESS Data Recovery Specialist -- they think Leopard might have formatted the external. Note that the external didn't show up as an install option.
5. ESS Specialist recommended trying DataRescue by www.prosofteng.com.
My observations related to other related forum topics:
1. This issue appears different as others seem to have had luck plugging their external HDs into other machines with data recovery success.
2. This issue appears different as there is no discernable error with the external HD hardware itself.
3. The external seems to have been formatted by Leopard. Haven't seen anyone talk about this.
PLEASE HELP me figure out next steps:
1. Should I try Data Rescue on the external HD?
2. Is Disk Warrior different from Data Rescue -- better, worse, different? How? I heard DW is not compatible with Leopard but can be used when booting from the DW disk?
3. Should I used a data recovery service? After one of the above (DR/DW)? What is the best service to use in terms of effectiveness and price?
4. For the iMac...
a. Does it make sense to do an archive an install to make sure any issues with the quirky install
of Leopard are cleaned up?
b. I've noticed that I might also try a reboot in safe mode and then run disk utility again, or to
reboot in C.
c. The only 3rd party software on the iMac is flip-4-mac (.wmv compatibility in Quicktime).
Should I delete it?
Thanks for your help. I hope I've laid this out so to be useful to others with similar/dissimilar issues.

Hi sillynuggins-
Greetings and welcome to the Apple boards
I have read that you should disconnect all peripherals such as hard drives before doing an update and now I suppose I know one reason why.
1,2 and 3: DataRescue is a different program than DiskWarrior. DR is what you need here. DR will be way cheaper, in orders of magnitude, than a data recovery service.
4. An archive and install does make sense. Definitely remove flip-4-mac beforehand just to make sure.

Data recovery after 'clean install'

Hello,
My daughter's Macbook Air suffered the 'hinge' problem, and was returned to Apple for service. Some idiot at the Apple Depot did a clean install of OS X for absolutely NO reason.
I'm looking for the best way to access the hard drive externally (via USB only) so I can run Data Rescue and attempt to rescue her files.
Obviously I'd use Firewire target disk mode if the Airbook has Firewire port.
Any ideas?
thanks much

There is no way to directly access the hard drive via USB like Target Disk Mode. If you have Data Rescue on a bootable DVD, then you can attempt to boot the computer from an optical drive just as you would to install OS X. Alternatively, if you have an 8 or 16 GB flash drive you can install OS X on it then copy Data Rescue to it. Then boot the computer from the USB flash drive. If Data Rescue is on a bootable DVD you can clone the DVD to a flash drive.
Note that having installed OS X on the erased drive as well as having used the drive compromises the ability to rescue files. Once files are overwritten they cannot be recovered.

Elements 4 crashing immediately after install on mac OSX 10.4.11, can anyone help ?

I have an infuriating problem with Elements 4 crashing immediately after an install on mac OSX 10.4.11, can anyone help ?
I was given the computer, which still had Elements 4 on it although it always crashed on opening, i removed the program and bought a 2nd hand hard copy of Elements 4 from eBay.
When i install the new copy it opens up with the "credits" but at the bottom right it still shows the past owners name as licensee briefly, then crashes before fully opening.
Does anyone know what is going on? I know it's an old version but i find elements4 perfect for my needs
Thankyou for reading.
Simon

More information needed. Are you saying you're just running the computer from the PO's user account? I would very strongly recommend erasing the disk and starting over with a fresh install of OS X for a number of reasons.

Sync doesn't work after re-install

''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1015872 /questions/1015872]''
I had sync working on my windows machine, and firefox was always up to date.
After re-installing windows I connected to my Sync straight away account and nothing is updating, no bookmarks, history, passwords, nothing.
No, I haven't upgraded to a new sync or old sync or anything like that, i didn't even know there were different ones. How do I get my data back and sync working again?

Sync isn't meant to be used as a backup device, but merely to sync data between multiple devices.
So it is not guaranteed that you can restore data from the Sync server.

Elements 9 freezing up after loading project and wont load up dates

help, elements 9 freezing up after loading project .

Unitedmoviemaker
Have you looked at any possible involvement of the antivirus program in the way of recent updates for it? Recent Windows Updates? Can we assumed that you have not added, subtracted any programs that would coincide with the onset of the issue?
Have you checked to make sure that your video card is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
Recently, with Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA video card, answers have come from rolling back the driver.
I guess you tried the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file deletion. But, did you try deleting the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
Do you have the Premiere Elements 9 installation disc for installations files in case a deactivation, uninstall, run through of ccleaner, reinstall is indicated?
But, let me backup for a moment. Is this issue confined to one previously created project or to all your Premiere Elements projects either new or old?
Let us start here and then move forward according to your answers.
Thanks.

Add On...Usual...confirm that you have the latest version of QuickTime installed, you are running the program as the 9.0.1 Update, and you are running the program Run As Administrator or from a User Account with Administrative Privileges.

Payment term and Baseline date are not appear after residual clearing

Hi Friends,
We have an issue in Payment term. Recently small changes were made in OBA3.Here they enable the option of "Payment term from invoice". the function of this is to - copy the payment term and baseline date form invoice to Partial item .Due to enable of this function after residual clearing the payment term and base line fields are get empty.
Now user want to get these fields to be updated even not changes take place in OBA3.Can you please suggest me the way, with out changes in OBA3 can we get payment term and baseline date field after residual clearing .Please suggest .
Thank you
Regards,
Dharma

Hi Julie,
Thanks for your reply..
Here the issue is, the user using Baseline date for two specific purpose.
1.Due day calculation-auditing purpose
2.Agning report
For due day calculation they recently enable the option "payment term from invoice in -OBA3".Due to active the function,system copy the payment term and baseline date from invoice to residual item.it means the residual item having baseline data as invoice date not posting date.
But for aging report purpose it has to be update posting date.
now user want to meet these both requirement .How can it possible .Please suggest.
Thank you
Regards

Column headers and data are mismatched in Data tab of views after move col.

Hi,
Currently, I am using Windows XP, SQL Developer Version 1.2.1 Build Main 32.13.
Java platform 1.5.0_06
Oracle IDE 1.2.1.3213
I'm having trouble with display of data from views in the "Data" tab of SQL Developer. If I move a column left or right of its original place, the data no longer line up with the proper column heading. The data are in the correct order, but the column headers are out of whack. Also, in the Single Record View, the data and column headers are mismatched.
Refreshing the view, closing the view, closing and reopening SQL Developer do not "reset" the view so that the data and proper column headers are lined up. Even dropping and recreating the view does not force SQL Developer to use the proper data-column header match.
Just to be clear, the data within the view is fine. It is the display of the data-column headers in the "Data" tab of SQL Developer (and the single record view) that is wrong. The mismatch seems to occur after a column is moved in the view.
Is this a bug? I like the ability to move columns around within the display of the view. However, much more important that the column headers and data line up correctly.
Thanks,
Morgan

Thanks much. I found the correct file, deleted it, and the column headers and data match up again.
I found the correct file by searching the directory for one of the column names that occurs in the view (though I had to find both instances of "COLUMN_NAME" and "COLUMN NAME" (without the underscore)). Not sure why there were files with both versions.
Do you know if there is any way to prevent those XXXXXXXXXTableSettings.xml files from writing all together (oracle.javatools.controls.nicetable.NiceTablePersistentSettings)? I looked through the SQL Developer preferences but nothing jumped out as being the setting to switch off.
Should I be doing anything in particular to bring more attention to this potential bug so it might get fixed in a future release?
Thanks again,
Morgan

Text messages and phone calls from March 2012 to date are missing after activating iphone5

text messages and phone calls from March 2012 to date are missing after activating iphone5. I backed up my 4 before activating my 5. Can i retrieve them somehow?

i would not want to bet on nokia ever releasing a patch or update in the software to allow this function on this particular phone.
if you look at nokia phones over the years, they have added functionality like this across a wide range all at once, take for example timed profiles on symbian phones. these have only just been phased in.
i do not think it is a development cop out, more along the lines that nokia is a huge company and as such would have a huge effor in market research. if they didnt pick this out through their market researc, why spend the money adding it?
the comment on annoyance is entirely personal to me, as it is important to you - you may want to consider moving to a symbian (series 60) based handset as these give you a lot of expansion for this sort of need.

After editing file in ACR 8.6 (Mac) , the file (NEF and XMP) modification dates are not updated

With both my Mac's, reset Photoshop C (2014) to previous version 2014.0. Now find that after editing file in ACR 8.6 (Mac) , the file (NEF and XMP) modification dates are not updated. Reloaded camera raw, etc., but still find modification dates are not updated, either using Finder or using Bridge to view dates. Editing other files, PSD, DNG, TIFF, etc., are updated and the information is correctly displayed.

Ok, not entirely sure what I did but it's now working (Bizarre!). The only thing I did was 'eject' the ACR 8.6 .dmg file from the finder side bar and restart PS CC, so that may have been where I was going wrong all along!
However, I now have another issue in that there is no preview of the shot in Finder on my iMac when I highlight the NEF file. I assume this is simply because Apple haven't yet released an update for the new D810 NEF files and so the computer doesn't know what it's looking at?!?
If anyone has any other ideas though, then I'm more than willing to listen.
Thanks again.

Streaming radio just stopped working Firefox version 8, but I can get everything else. Add on's are up to date. I can't recall if it happened after the Firefox up date or after listening to last.fm or what! How to fix this?

Streaming radio just stopped working Firefox version 8, but I can get everything else not on stream to work. Add on's are up to date. I can't recall if it happened after the Firefox up date or after listening to last.fm or what prompted it. How to fix this?

I installed-enabled MS win media player firefox 1.0.0.8, i still did not get streaming, error box comes up and says 'stream load error', the 'windows media test' thing did not work, i tried iheart radio-no luck, so i disabled win media player plug-in dynamic link library 3.0.2629 and tested and still did not work, i also have plug ins: silverlight 5.0.61118.0 and quicktime 7.6.9 7.6.9.0 enabled. I don't know why all of the sudden i have a stream problem with firefox, yesterday, i tried on IE which i never use and had no problem with it. i will try to do more trouble shooting and see, its really frustrating, if can't figure out, i guess will have to revert back to IE which i really don't want to do, but---oh well. thx for help.

Elements 2.0 is an old version. The message may be due to the fact that your new HD is much bigger than your older one, and not due to the classical reasons:

In IPhoto I changed movie dates after thumb nails were created in IMovie but the new dates are not showing up in IMovie. Is there someway to refresh the IPhoto event in IMovie?

Background: I'm transferring file folders from a Visa laptop via an external hard drive to my IMac. In the folders are photos and videos from different cameras. SO I first tried to import to IMovie but it would not recognize any of the files. So then I imported into IPhoto and both photos and videos were imported and I created events for each folder. When I first opened IMovie I had to wait for it to create "thumb nails". Then I could view the events in IMovie BUT the video clips are not together because they have vastly different dates and are mixed with videos from other events. I looked at the dates and said I can fix that in IPhoto which i did but those new dates are not showing up in IMovie. I think I need to somehow refresh the event data that Imovie is using but have not found how to do that in either IPhoto or IMovie.
I'm doing this on three events with about 100 photos and videos. But I have many 1000s more to do so need to know how to either fix this or delete these events, reimport, change the dates, then open again in IMovie. I'm sure that would work but I can't understand why changing the dates in IPhoto is not being reflected in IMovie.
Appreciate any tips or pointers.
OBTW this is my first question as a first time Apple owner.

It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did.
Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!
