Retrieving missing keyword tags from a previous version of Photoshop Elements

I just purchased an upgraded version of Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12, but after all my photos were converted to the new version, all of my keyword tags from the previous version are not showing.  How do I retrieve them?

Thank you so much.  I had tried to use both of those buttons, but I didn't know that I had to use them in that order in order for the tags to show up, and I couldn't find the answer in the Adobe help section, either.  Looks like all my tags are there and the problem is solved.  Thanks again.

  • 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.

  • Disinstall previous versions of Photoshop Elements?

    Starting with Photoshop Elements 8 I always upgraded the software to now PE 11 (following the instructions, I never disinstalled the previous versions). When running, the program (both, organizer and editor) is incredibely slow. Looking at the computer task manager, I notice that all previous versions of Photoshop Elements are still running (starting from the version 8) - in fact, i never disinstalled them. Question 1: is it normal? how can I prevent this? Question 2: if I now disinstall the versions 8-10, do I lose any data from version 11? (e.g. catalog) Thanks.

    My guess is that what you are seeing in the task manager is the downloader for all versions. That should not explain any slowing down. Try going into the previous versions and disabling the automatic start of the downloader. Only the most recent downloader task should remain.
    Two reasons may explain the sluggishness : try disabling all autoanalyzing features in the Organizer - and using the 'optimize' option in the catalog manager. That may require some time, be patient.

  • How do I migrate my exhaustive keyword list from my previous version of PS, CS5 to CS6?

    I upgraded to PS CS6 and failed to export the exhaustive keyword list I had created by adding personal keywords to the "Controlled Vocabulary Keyword Catalog" I was using in CS5. I thought I'd be able to open my previous version of CS5 to export that catalog, but every attempt to open PS CS5 or the Bridge CS5 defaults to CS6.
    I would love to go back and open my previous version to export that catalog rather than trying to recreate it from a new Controlled Vocabulary Keyword Catalog download.
    Thank you in advance for any help you may provide.

    Thank you for your help, but I found a file called Adobe Bridge Keywords.xml that only contained the default keywords that are contained in the startup version of PS. I didn't find the exhaustive list that I created in CS5 Bridge. Is there another place that I could find that entire list including the heirarchy?
    Or is there a way to open the old version of Adobe PS Bridge CS5?
    Thanks Curt Y

  • Transfering tags from Album 2.0 to Photoshop Elements 9.0

    I'm trying transfer my pictures and tags to a new computer.  the old platform was Win XP with Photoshop Album 2.0 (PA2) and the new computer is Win 7 64bit with Photoshop Elements 9.0. (PE9)
    So far I have been successful in moving the photos to a directory on the new computer and I can view the photos in PE9.  But the tags did not transfer to the new catalog.
    I must be missing something basic.  Is there an additional file that needs to be transfered to make the old tags work on PE9?
    Looking forward to anyone's suggestions.
    Cheers,
    Andy

    In theory, yes you can transfer tags from PSA2 to PSE9, however because of the large distance between the versions, sometimes the method fails.
    The preferred method is to convert the PSA2 catalog file to PSE9. To do this, you need to create a backup using PSA2 (File->Backup Catalog), and then move everything from this backup to the new computer, launch PSE9, and then File->Restore Catalog. As I said, sometimes with older versions of PSE/PSA, the method fails, you won't know until you try it.
    Another possibility (not really sure if PSA2 had this capability) is to have PSA2 write the tags to the individual photo files, then copy all the photos to the new computer and import to PSE9.

  • Reinstall previous version of Photoshop Elements

    How can I reinstall Photoshop Elements 10 after upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 8.1?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-10-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

  • How do I activate purchased version of Photoshop Elements 12?

    I purchased a package through QVC that included Adobe Elements 12 with a Dell Inspiron Computer.  I installed the program and was able to import pictures, but when I try to use the editor it wants me to sign up for the 30 free trial version of PE12.  I entered the serial number when I installed.  Because the Dell has Microsoft 8, I also changed my email to Outlook.  I had a previous version of Photoshop Elements where I used a yahoo email.  Now I am confused about which email I associated with PE12.  Help!!!

  • How do i import keyword tags from PSE12?

    I have just downloaded PS and LR5 from Adobe CC. I was using Photoshop Elements 12. How can I import my keyword tags from the PSE Organizer. I saved them as .txt files but they will not import because they contain "special characters." What do I do?  Please do not tell me I have to start over... ~

    is there a way to import tags from PSE 12
    The PSE 12 Organizer and LR 5 use different file formats for exporting and importing keyword hierarchies. PSE uses XML format, while LR 5 uses a tab-separated format.  If you're a programmer or technically minded, you could convert from one to the other using your favorite scripting language.
    But the approach suggested by dj_paige can be modified to accomplish what you want without scripting, by copying the keyword hierarchy from the "upgraded" LR catalog that was created from your PSE catalog to your "good" LR catalog:
    1. Make a manual backup of your "good" LR catalog: Lightroom Help | Back up a catalog.
    2. In LR, open the catalog that you created previously by upgrading (converting) the PSE catalog -- you can usually get to that catalog by doing File > Open Recent.
    3. Go to grid view in the Library by doing Window > Library followed by View > Grid (usually you're already in Library grid view, but just in case...)
    4. Make sure the Keyword List panel is showing on the right by doing Window > Panels > Keyword List.
    5. You should see the keyword hierarchy from your PSE catalog.  If you don't, stop and post a screen shot of the entire LR screen.
    6. Do Metadata > Export Keywords to export those keywords as a LR-format text file.
    7. Open your "good" LR catalog by doing File > Open Recent.
    8. Do Metadata > Import Keywords and select the file you exported in step 6.
    9. All the keywords that were exported in step 6 will be added to the current catalog, and there will be duplicate keywords if there were already keywords of the same name in the catalog.  Those new keywords will not be attached to any existing photos in the current catalog.

  • In latest version of MF there`s missing button, which was in previous version: between buttons back/forward and the typing bar there used to be little flash, which showed few last pages I have just browsed. How can I restore it?

    If you mean the drop marker then you can still get the History of the Back and Forward buttons if any by either Left-Click and hold for a second or by Right-Clicking them.
    If you still want the drop mark there also then there is this Extension at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/

  • Trusted certificates from your previous version of Adobe Reader were found.

    After upgrading Adobe Reader from 10 to 11, some users are getting "Adobe Reader Security - Trusted certificates from your previous version of Adobe Reader were found.  Would you like to import them."  I need to know what registry settings we can modify to either set this automatically to "Import" or "Use Default"  I need to add one of these options into our Adobe Reader Settings GPO that is using group policy preferences.  This only appears for users who have data in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\Security and only the very first time the user opens Adobe Reader after the upgrade per user profile on a given server.

    I'm not sure this is true: "If they don't exist then there is no dialog. " Could be, but I've never heard of it.
    However, acrodata files perform a number of functions for several features, so removing them is unwise. Also, they will just come back when a user exercizes certain features.
    Better to just turn off the feature with the supported preference.
