Transferring catalogue to a new computer/updated Elements

I am currently using Elements 8 on my existing laptop. I am about to instal Elements 10 on a new laptop. In order to transfer my existing catalogue do I simply do a back up in the existing Elements 8 and then restore in Elements 10 on the new laptop? Many thanks

Yes.
Sewe these notes which apply from PSE6 onwards.

How to import the catalogue onto a new computer in Elements 9?

I have a new computer and was using ELements 9 on the old one. I have downloaded the programme and aslo copied the catalogue over from the old computer. How do i import the catalogue? When I click on Import, it doesnt mention catalogue, only Frame for Video and Wia support.
Margaret

Thank you very much. The only problem with this is that there is no option to “restore catalogue” in the drop down File menu in my newly downloaded PSE 9. There is no mention of the word “catalogue”. There is an Import option but this is only for “Frame for Video” or “WIA Support”
With best wishes

I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC transfer program. CS5 started up on the new computer OK, but now does not recognize raw files. Should I uninstall and reinstall again?

I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC mover ultimate. CS5 appeared to start up normally, I had to insert the serial number from my original CD. However, now the program does not recognize CR files and Adobe bridge is not working properly. I get messages that CS5 needs to be updated, but the updates fail. What should I do? Should I uninstall CS5 on the new computer, uninstall CS5 on the old computer using the original CD, and then reinstall CS5 using the CD on the new computer?

Transferring programs does not work well with Adobe applications. You should install them.
As far as having the program on different machines goes, you are allowed to have two activated installations so if it is working on the original machine there is no reason to remove it unless you need the space.

How can I move actions from old computer using Elements 6 to new computer using Elements 12?

I downloaded some actions onto my old computer using Elements 6. I would like to move them to my new computer using Elements 12. How do I do that?

Does she have any photos in the iPhoto library on her new machine?
What version of iPhoto does she have?
The general answer is to trash the iPhoto library on the new computer (assuming it is empty) and drag the old iPhoto library to the pictures folder of the new machine and launch iPhoto letting it convert the library

Transferring camera roll into new computer.

So... I got my laptop stolen and decided to get a new one. The thing is that I can't seem to download the Photo Library pictures from my old computer that are stored in my iphone, into the new laptop... is there anyway i can do that?
Thanks!

Photos captured by your iPhone and a photo saved from a received email, from a website, or from a received MMS are stored in your iPhone's Camera Roll. Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
The title of your post is "Transferring camera roll into new computer" which you aren't asking about. You are asking about importing or transferring photos from your iPhone's Photo Library, which is completely separate from and has nothing to do with the Camera Roll.
Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are stored in your iPhone's Photo Library, which is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone as part of the iTunes transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced on your iPhone.
Photos stored on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data - stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only which should be kept in a separate location from your laptop in the event it is lost or stolen. The iPhone is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device.
There are some 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction, but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost in the process.

Can't open Raw files after transferring CS5 to my new computer

I just transferred cs5 to my new imac computer using my time machine backup. I now get a "photoshop does not recognize this file type" when I try to open a raw file from photoshop. When I try to open my raw files through bridge I get the message "you do not have permission to open the document. I have checked my permission preferences and have reading and writing permissions and updated to 6.7 ACR. I dont know what to do next?

Curt,
I have an imac OSX 10.8.2. So is the application folder the correct location for the CS5 folder? There is a lot of unclear information about this out on the web.
Everything I loaded today has a CS5.1 name to it. I assumed that it was an updated version from my original CS5? If I click on the CS5 folder located in my user file it opens photoshop (probally means its not uninstalled... hum). I cant access it through utilities/adobe installers/uninstall CS5. So maybe I should do the Script cleaner like you mentioned? Or maybe CS5 and CS5.1 are the same program like you mentioned?
When I follow the path to camera raw you mentioned I get to a photoshop raw "pop up" but ACR doesnt open up. Are you asking for me to locate the Camera Raw plug in folder or look for multiples of the file inside my plugins folder? Their isnt a ACR file in my CS5 file that I found in my user folder or the CS5.1 file in my applications folder. Where would I typically find it? Im having a hard time finding it at all.
Im on my 2nd day of troubleshooting and Ive read so many articles and help threads. Ive had a call back order requested from adobe... Im still waiting 3 hours later. Im afraid they might just reject my request for help since I dont have CS6. You have by far been the best help Ive found. Thank you very much! If you can think of anything else to resolve this please let me know. Im so frusterated at this point... trying to be positive though, Im learning alot.

New Computer - Updated iPod - Syncing Issues

Greetings!
I bought a new computer in January. At that time, I transferred my songs over to my new computer from my old computer using a cross over cable. At that point, both of my iTunes libraries were the same.
Since then I downloaded more songs and updated songs in the library, so I decided to finally sync my iPod classic to the new computer. I knew that I would have to restore the iPod, but since the libraries were the same, there should be no problem, right? Wrong!
Before erasing the iPod and syncing the songs, I stupidly decided to upgrade the software for the iPod (which I haven't done since I got it, due to reading related problems on here). So that goes fine and erase the iPod. Now on to syncing the library.
All the songs sync perfectly. The problem is with my video files. I had these movies on my iPod before I updated and erased the iPod. But now, iTunes says that the files are incompatible! I do not understand since they worked perfectly fine before! What happened?
According to iTunes they are MPEG-4 video files. The movies were made specifically for an iPod, so I do not understand what is going on. I figure that it might be due to the upgrading I did, but when I restore the iPod it always comes back with the same version (since there was no previous version on the new computer).
Is there a way I can fix the MPEG-4 problem or download and install the previous versions of the iPod software since iTunes does not give me an option? Should I try going back to previous version on my older computer (will this even work)? Mainly I would like to know why the MPEG-4 file that worked perfectly before is giving me problems and if it can be fixed.
Thank you!

Transferring files to a new computer

I have both an IPOD 20G and a Nano. On my old computer, the Nano is its own playlist within my library. I got a new computer and want to transfer files for both.
I have so many songs that I do not wish to burn them all on cds and reload. Not all of my songs came from itunes, some were uploaded or downloaded from other sources so I dont want to lose those either.
I followed the directions to manual update and enable disk use. When I get on to my new computer, I try to move the file from my ipod by dragging it to my new itunes file. When I pull it up, my new library is empty and all my music and playlists just so up under "my devices". So clearly it never transferred to the new location. I can only listen the music when the IPOD is connected. I have not even attempted to try to update my nano yet.
I tried copying my files to an external hard drive and then transferring them the new computer and only some of them transferred.
Anyone have any easy, step by step methods for transferring my old library to my new computer complete with playlists and all. I start from scratch with my nano if I have to, I just dont want to lose my library.
Thanks

I did copy the entire Itune library from the old computere to the new computer. After downloading/updating the itunes software on the new computerI went to open the itune file--all the music is there but no playlists. Also when you connect the ipod to the computer, if you allow it to sync it wants to erase all the music on the ipod. I need to keep until I get the playlists on the new computer--the ipod is the thing that has them now.

Transferring IPod Librabry to new Computer & Hard Drive Failure

My main computer had a hard drive failure and after I got a new hard drive I can't find a way to transfer the music library from my IPod to the new computer. I can't de-authorize the old computer beacuse the hard drive is dead. Does anyone know how to do this with out losing all of the music on my Ipod or burning it all to CD's ?

Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump and iPodRobot.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
More information is contained here.

Afterwards, take the advice of others and make a back up *_other than the iPod._*

How to transfer records from old computer with Elements 7 to new computer with Elements 13

I have transferred my music to new computer but music is not showing in iTunes - although is on the computer as if I select a song from the folder it will play that song via iTunes. How can I get my music to show?

I have transferred my music to a new computer following the instructions carefully but for whatever reason the music does not show on iTunes on the new computer. The music is there as I can access it via My Computer and if I select a song it will show in iTunes and play - however I can not do this for every single track! Can anyone suggest something I have done wrong????

Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

How do I move my trial and catalogue to a new computer?

I have 18 days left on my Lightroom 5 trial. I'm now using a new computer. How do I access my trial and catalogue? Thanks.

You can't move trials and you shouldn't attempt to move non-trials.... installing is the way to go to help insure proper performance.
If the trial is currently on your older machine, then it has the 18 days left. If you install the trial on your new machine you are likely to have 30 days left.

I have music in iTunes that was purchased with an account that no longer exists. I'm transferring music to a new computer so the new iTunes is asking me to sign in to the old account to authorize the old music. Is there a work-around for this?

Just to clarify: I purchased some of my older music in iTunes with an account that got deleted. I cannot recover or use this old account. I transferred music from my old iTunes to a new computer and that new iTunes on the new computer is asking me to sign into the old account to authorize the music. So, is there another way to transfer this music to my new iTunes? I'm using a USB thumb drive to transfer the music. Also, music that was purchased with my current account tranfers just fine.

Transferring iTunes library to new computer with Windows Vista OS

Using the Apple Support Guide I have tried to move my iTunes library to my new laptop using my iPod as the back up device. When I went to copy my music to my new computer by dragging the iTunes folder out of the Music folder to the desktop, a message occurred saying I must be the Administrator to do this (I am) so it would not complete the task. Instead I have located the iPod in Computer and dragged the iTunes folder into the Music Folder and replaced the iTunes folder in Music with the iTunes folder from Computer (i.e. iPod).
When I open the iTunes folder in Music, all the folders with all my music are there. However when I open the iTunes program there is no music in the library that shows up. If I sync my iPod will all the music then be transferred into the iTunes library?
As we have moved overseas I no longer have the old computer so the backup on my iPod is the only backup of the music we have so I don't want to risk deleting it.
Many thanks for any help.

thanks Bocaken , just bought new pc. will be useful

Transferred all files to new computer. My iTunes does not find my music. The "scan for media" button doesn't work and I cannot get the iTunes to see the music that is clearly on my new computer.

I am stumpted. I transferred and have all my music in my iTunes folder on my new computer and I also have it on an external hard drive. I've added the new computer to the list of authorized computers and followed the "advanced" preferences options to select my iTunes folder and still nothing happens. No music, no playlists, NOTHING. The I am completely shocked that none, NONE of the apple support pages can help me. I have Windows 8.1. Please can someone help me. I cannot believe how hard this is.
