Tags aus Album 1 in PSE 3 importieren

Ich benutze PSE 2 und Album 1.Zur Zeit probiere ich PSE 3 aus. Allerdings habe ich dort noch keine Möglichkeit gefunden, meine mühsam in Album 1 ertsllten tags zu übernehmen. Geht das überhaupt? Die Help sagt nichts darüber...Für mich wäre das ein K.O.-Kriterium. Thomas

Du kannst einfach Deinen Katalog aus PSA1 in PSE3 öffnen. PSE erstellt dann eine Kopie der Datenbank und wandelt sie in sein neues Format um.

Recovery of tags and albums from previous catalog

I recently transferred my photos and catalog to a new computer, but was not able to get PSE9 to recognize the original catalog. Adobe tech support advised me to rebuild the catalog, which was mostly succesful. However, all of the tags, albums and star ratings were lost. Is there any way to recover those from the old catalog? I have already uninstalled PSE from the old computer, but still have all of the old data files.

When I did the transfer of files from my old computer to the new one, I used Windows Easy Transfer, which moved all of My Documents folder, including My Pictures, which contains all of my photos and all of the Adobe support files, including the catalog (catalog.pse9db). I then installed PSE9 on the new computer and used the Catalog Manager to point to the catalog. Part of the problem with the catalog appeared to be that the path to the My Pictures folder was different on the new computer than it was on the old computer. I tried to Reconnect All Missing Files, but PSE was never able to find them. That's when Adobe Tech Support recommended I just rebuild the catalog.
I was pleased that the captions on the files were restored with the building of the new catalog, but the tags and albums were lost. Are they stored in the catalog or in another file? When I rebuilt the catalog, it looks like it used the existing one, since the old catalog is no longer in the Adobe My Catalog folder.
The other files in the My Catalog folder are:
backupCt.dat
collstatus.dat
face.thumb.9.cache
itemData.mk4
rmf.3.cache
tagstatus.dat
thumb.5(1).cache (has not been modified since transfer to new computer)
thumb.5.cache
tn.4.cache (has not been modified since transfer to new computer)
watch.2.cache
I've gotten some other replies that sound like I'll probably have to manually recreate and attach the tags. I've got over 6000 pics, so I'll appreciate any help you might have.

Currently have 30K pics on PC Win. 7 laptop using PSE 8, corrected issues and did full backup on portable hard drive plus saved (Extensive) Keyword tags to file. Installed PSE 13 on PC Win 8.1 laptop. Will attach same portable Hard drive to new laptop.

Will LR3 automatically transfer keyword tags of photos created in PSE when importing the photos

Hi eveeryone,
I am new to LR3. I would like to import all my photos into LR3 and all these photos have keyword tags that were done in PSE. Will LR3 automatically import the keyword tags too? If not, how would I do it?
Much appreciate your feedback.

The answer is "NO", because importing is the WRONG thing to do here.
The proper procedure is to have LR3 upgrade your PSE catalog. In Lightroom, File->Upgrade PSE Catalog. All your tags will show up in Lightroom as keywords. Couldn't be simpler!

Question on Lost Tags and Album Art

O.K., I mentioned in another thread that my iTunes library suddenly vanished, but I have been able to “Add file to library” to get everything back in there. Unfortunately, a lot of my album art and my tagging went back to the way it was before I modified it. If I open iTunes again and find nothing there (seems unfortunately to be common) and have to add the folder back in, is there anyway to do that with all the tags and album art in tact?

Hi Ken,
If this is what I think you are referring to Ken, then don't worry, all is not lost.
This has happened to me once or twice in the past when either installing a new version of iTunes or when I have re-linked my iPod to my other computer.
One thing to check first though:
If you open iTunes and look in your Library and select any track you like (you dont kneed to play it) and make sure that you have the 'Show or Hide Song Artwork' tab at the bottom left of iTunes (its the fourth one in) selected, can you see the Artwork for your track?
I know you are concerned about the artwork on your iPod, but this is important, if it is showing thats great. If not, it might just be switched off. If you look at the grey bar that makes the top of the Artwork box that views the image, does it say 'Selected Song' or 'Now Playing'? If it is the latter, then with your mouse just click on it and your Artwork for that track should appear.
Makes sure this is the case for a few others, and if so, your artwork is not lost and can easily be put back on to your iPod.
Now Make sure your iPod is connected and showing in the Sources list on the right of iTunes.
Now go into the iPod options menu by going to the Edit menu and selecting the bottom option 'Preferences' and then opening the iPod tab. You will see an option to show your artwork on your iPod. Select this then click OK out of the Preferences and do an update.
iTunes will then say its updating your iPod, and when it has confirmed that your music is updated, it will then import all your artwork back into your iPod and it should then be present when you use your iPod.
Depending how many tracks you have on your iPod and in iTunes, this might take quite some time. For me last time without about 4 tracks on an AMD Athlone this took about 40 minutes.
I hope this is of help.

Creating tags to organize photos in PSE 12

I just got a new computer and installed PSE 12. I want to organize my photos with my own tags, and can't find a way to do that with the new program.
Also, I don't want to send my photos to the cloud.
HELP!!!

Dear nealeh:
Thanks for the advice, and hope that I can find the tools I used to use to nicely. I'll report back once I have tried your suggestions.

You need to spend some time with Help> Getting Started. You can create many categories and sub-categories in your tags, the Organizer fixes you refer to are still there - click Instant Fix at bottom right, and if you convert your existing catalog then all those existing tags will come across with them (although People, Places & Events are handled differently from 8 & 9. And you don't have to store anything in the cloud if you don't want to.

Tags aus photoshop Album in CS2 uebernehmen

habe bisher mit Photoshop Album und CS gearbeitet und moechte nun Bridge anstelle von Album benutzen. Gibt es einen Weg die im Album angelegten Tags in Bridge zu uebernehmen?

Muss man nicht lange rumeiern: Die Antwort ist Nein. Du verwendest ein gnadenlos veraltetes Produkt und der Katalog ließe sich noch nicht mal in ältere Versionen von PS Elements importieren, weil das ein auf die Schnelle zusammengewürfeltes Format ist, dass mit den heutigen XMP-Daten nix zu tun hat. Alles, was nicht nativ in den EXIF/ IPTC oder sonstigen Metadaten der Bilder selbst steht, wird nirgendwoe anders auftauchen oder verfügbar sein.

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.

Stacks vs. Albums; an unholy PSE 8.0 alliance?

Upgraded recently from PSE 5.0 to 8.0 and stumbled on a problem I could not find my way around. I use stacks to prevent my browser view from cluttering up with hundreds of thumbnails. In 5.0, it was ok to assign individual photos within a particular stack to various or multiple albums (or collections in 5.0). In 8.0, if a select a photo within a stack and want to assign it to another album, the result is that all the photos in that stack get the same assignation as well! The same thing happens if I try to apply tags instead of albums.
To sum up, photos of all creatures great and small are perfectly happy to live in one stack, but albums or tags should be smart enough to separate cats and dogs if necessary (or there will be war)...
George of Finland

Starting with PSE 6, Adobe changed the way stacks interact with version sets and albums. The core issue is that Adobe intended stacks to be used in a way different than you are using them.
In Adobe's design, stacks are similar to version sets and are intended for grouping similar versions of the same scene, where there is one “best” photo on the top of the stack. The PSE User Guide gives the following examples: “For example, create a stack to group together multiple photos of your family taken with the same pose; or, for example, photos taken at a sports event using your camera’s burst mode or auto-bracket feature.” Some people try to use stacks instead of keyword tags to group disparate photos of the same subject (e.g. ten different photos of a wedding), and the stacks end up having many “best” photos buried inside the stack, with the photos having different keyword tags.
Unfortunately, using stacks this way interacts badly with the Organizer’s search – if any photo inside a stack matches the search, all the photos in the stack are displayed in the search results, regardless of whether they match. And as you've discovered, it makes using the stacks with albums more difficult. The underlying problem is that the stacks contain more than one "best" photo -- they contain multiple photos that you may want to use in different situations.
I'm not at all saying what you're doing is "wrong", just explaining how what you want to do differs from Adobe's intended uses. People have been complaining about this since PSE 6 came out, and given that Adobe puts almost no effort into the Organizer anymore, I think it's unlikely it will change.

How do you keep Tags organized when upgrading to PSE 9?

I installed PSE 9 after using PSE 7 for the last two years. Once it installed and I opened Organizer, Organizer found my existing PSE 7 Catalog and asked if I wanted to convert it. I did, but lost the organization of my Keyword Tags. All my photos retained their Tags (I write my Tags into each photo) but I lost my organizational tree. The Tags were all found, listed alphabetically and disorganized, in the "Imported Keyword Tags" Category. In other words, Tags in categories and subcategories were mixed together. I have over 50K photos and over 150 Tags. Needless to say, it was a pain re-organizing them. Unfortunately, I was unable to view Full Screen slide shows (hitting the Play button crashed Organizer) and was advised by Support to un-install and re-install PSE 9. I REALLY do not want to have to re-organize my Keyword Tags again. Is there any way to retain my catalog's organizational tree?

Thanks for the reply. I have used every PSE except PSE 8, in the past. When I purchased my current PC, I installed PSE 7 and rebuilt my catalog by using the "Get photos from files" function. Consequently, I had to rebuild my Keyword Tags organizational tree. When I installed PSE 9 on this same PC, it "found" my PSE 7 catalog and asked if I wanted to convert it. I clicked to agree. It converted my Catalog, which did contain Albums in PSE 7, but I lost my Tag's organizational tree and no Albums were present in PSE 9. They are still present in PSE 7. As I mentioned, tech support had me un-install and re-install PSE 9, which I did after your first reply, and indeed the Tags appeared and were organized when I re-installed PSE 9, but again, I have no albums in PSE 9.

How to reorder albums display in PSE 9?

Does anyone know how to change to display of your albums in PSE 9? The default is oldest to newest and I would like the inverse? TY.

The list is normally alphabetical but you can change the default setting to manual and then re-order them yourself.
In the Organizer Click Edit >>Preferences >>Keyword Tags & Albums

Tags bei Tiff-Dateien in PSE 5

Hallo!
Ich benutze noch Photoshop Elements 5 und würde dies auch gerne weiter tun. Ich habe nun leider das Problem, dass sich der Organizer weigert, meine TIFF-Dateien aus einer Nikon D 300 mit Tags zu versehen, nachdem ich den Befehl "Tag und Eigenschafteninfos mit Foto speichern" angeklickt habe. JPEG-Dateien vom gleichen Foto werden anstandslos mit Tags versehen, TIFF-Dateien jedoch nicht. Ich möchte meine bearbeiteten Fotos aber auch in Zukunft gerne als TIFF-Dateien speichern. Kann mir jemand einen Tipp geben, wie dieses Problem zu lösen ist? Oder sollte ich die Tags mit einer anderen Software einfügen?

Hallo,
ich arbeite auch noch teilweise mit PSE 5, hatte aber noch nie Probleme mit dem "taggen" von TIFF-Dateien. Wenn ich dich richtig verstanden habe, besteht das Problem nur darin, die angelegten Tags mit dem genannten Befehl in die Bilddateien zu schreiben. Dass gar keine Tags erzeugt werden können, kann ich mir kaum vorstellen.
Was mich an deiner Problembeschreibung ebenfalls wundert: " ... meine TIFF-Dateien aus einer Nikon D 300 ... " Nach meiner Kenntnis* erzeugen Nikon-DSLR nur NEF (=RAW)- oder JPG-Dateien. Auf welchem Wege werden deine TIFF-Dateien tatsächlich erzeugt? Über Adobe Camera RAW (ACR) und PSE Editor oder mit Fremdprogrammen? Sind deine Problem-TIFFs vielleicht als 16bit-Dateien gespeichert oder gar mit JPG-Kompression
Bei weiteren Hinweisen deinerseits kann ich mal versuchen, dein Problem nachzustellen

Tagging Artists /// Album Artist

Friends,
happy new year everyone.
I've never understood the difference between the tagging options artists and *album artists* which are listed in windows folder options.
Apparently iTunes does not recognize any difference, since it uses the default option *artist album* when I import a Cd into iTunes and when it's me taggign the album, whether I tag the option artists or album artist, iTunes lists the albumm together with the right artists correctly, regardless of which option I chose.
Can I anybody confirm whether tagging one thing or another (or both) is actually the same?
Or, on the contrary, if I have done wrong so far and I should tag both boxes?
Thanks in advance
Beppe

Check my previous post. If you treat Album Artist the way you've been looking at Artist this should sort things out. It's tragic bc it will take a long time to switch that over.
Album Artist is usually labeled the same as Artist bc n artist is susually on 100% of their songs. This however changes on an album where that artist allows another artist to feature without them. The result is a Herbie Hancock song, without Herbie on it, instead his featured Christina Aguilera.
Now.... If you were to search for Christina, you'd never get this one song as a result Your way. BUT if the Album artist remains Herbie, and the Artist is Christina, it'll sort better.

Problem with Composer info/Album Artist/ tags & duplicate albums

I recently re-organized my iTunes library, which is on a network drive in my home. Since everything had gotten moved to new directories, I deleted all the songs from my iTunes library and re-imported everything. I've never been much of a playlist person, nor did I do any ratings of songs, so I saw this as a reasonable solution.
Everything seemed fine -- Some artwork went missing after I imported everything, probably because iTunes no longer sells a few of the albums I have? Not really sure, but I fixed that, and then noticed that a few of my albums were showing up with duplicates in Cover flow & Grid view. More specifically, I found several albums with "Album Artist" info for the first two tracks of the album, and then nothing in that field for the rest of the tracks. Likewise, there would be composer info for ONLY the first two songs, and none for the rest.
What would cause this? Does iTunes supply composer info? I'm not even sure where it's coming from, but now that I notice it, it's bugging me that several of my albums don't have any info in this field. Album Artist is easy enough to fix, but I'm not sure how to fix the composer field. Does Genius change or import any info for these fields? I did notice this right after I ran Genius, and when I ran Genius, I did lose my internet connection in the middle of it downloading info, and had to restore it.
Most of my CD's were ripped using Exact Audio Copy, and track info came from it's built-in freeDB utility. I just find it really odd that I've got a couple dozen albums like this, out of about 12,000 songs, and only the first 2 tracks of each album have Composer and Album Artist info.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Welcome to AD!
I think WMP did this to random tracks in my library. Nicely filling in Album Artist & Compser on some tracks, and removing the track x of y info (the y went missing) and putting weird '0000 0A540 0000 ....'comments in the comment field.
Interesting that it only happened on the first 2 tracks of these albums - it was completely random on my files.
iTunes doesn't update track info from the internet, but WMP does. I rarely use WMP and it happened right after a WMP update. I have since turned off the option for WMP to get info from the internet.
Anyway....to fix the Cover flow & Grid views in iTunes, you have to make the Album Artist field match.
Select all the tracks from a CD, right-click > Get Info.
Answer yes , you want to edit multiple items.
Type in the Album Artist field. You can do the Composer field while you're at it, assuming you like having that info there.
Maybe there is some MP3 tag editor that would be faster, but that's the only way to do it in itunes.
Or perhaps you have backups that don't have this mess in the tags.

How do I create a list of files and tags in Album

I would like to create a list of all the files I have in Album. (I am using Photoshop Album Started Edition 3.)
Ideally this list will be formatted like this...
FILE NAME (WITH EXTENSION) - DATE - TAGS
Does anyone who if this can be done and how?
PS - I poked around the Menus and tried a couple of forums searches, but no luck.

Sorry. There is no way to do this [short of being an expert in MS Access and hacking the catalog file].
