Transferring photoshop elements from an old windows7 laptop to a new windows 8.1 laptop

I recently had to upgrade from a laptop running Windows 7 to a whole new laptop running Windows 8.1  I had been running Photoshop Elements only a few months and was still learning all that it can do.
It would be another six months before I can buy a whole new copy of Photoshop Elements.
Is there a way I can upgrade that is do-able without starting over?

The original license is for two installations.
Have you tried installing PSE on your new computer? If so, what happens?

    How do I move element 9 from my old xp computer to my new windows 8 computer?

    If you have an installation disc for Elements 9, then I would suggest that you uninstall Elements 9 from your old computer, de-activate during the uninstallation. On Windows 8 computer, insert the disc and install Elements 9, activate it during installation. However, it is not tested, according to this document from Adobe: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4527508. Let me know how it goes.

  • How to install Lightroom and Photoshop Elements from my old pc to my new pc?

    I have a new pc and want to install Lightroom 5.7 and Photoshop Elements 12 from my old pc to the new one.

    For LR here is a useful link:
    http://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-move-lightroom-to-new-computer/
    There is also a video tutorial which covers moving a LR catalog to a new computer:
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/how-to-migrate-lr-to-an other-computer/
    For Elements you can simply install the application and then set up the Elements Editor for external editing in the LR Library prefs. I’m assuming you won’t be using Oranizer as well as LR. That can lead to confusion and broken links unless you are very disciplined.
    If you do intend to use Organizer the method is backup and restore, starting with an Organizer backup on the old PC.

  • TS3682 how to transfere my apps from my old i-pad to the new one using PC

    how to transfere my apps from old i-pad to my new one using the PC ?

    You will need to us a PC with Itunes 11.0.1 installed.  Mkae sure you are signed in to the iTunes store with your Apple/Itunes Id.
    1.  You will need to connect the old iPad and make sure you - offload pictures in the Photoroll, sync the Apps from your iPad to the iTunes etc
    2.  Make sure that the iTunes app library has everything in it and make sure thath the device app folder has all the apps you want in it.
    3.  Make a manual back-up - once you are happy that the key Itunes folders are correct.
    4.  Depending on how you want to proceeed you can restore that back-up to your new iPad or build it from scratch.
    Cheers

  • When I transferred the info from an old ipod, broken, to a new one the contacts I received were from all over the place, many whom I did not even know.  Can I only restore from the last sync or can I go back further to get my old contacts?

    I recently had to replace my ipod touch.  The old one had a broken button and would not change the screen correctly.  Apple gave me a new ipod and told me all I needed to do was update the new ipod from the itunes which I had backed up prior to getting the new one.  When I did the sync , the info for my contacts was giving me names and addresses from all over the place except the itunes.  Can I retrieve info from a previous sync or only to the last sync that was made?

    Yes I did.  When installing the new ipod it had to update the software, then it sync'ed the information onto the new ipod.  The contacts were not the original ones, and all the phone numbers have dissappeared.  Is there any way to recover them?

  • Deactivate photoshop elements from old computer.

    I am wanting to deactivate adobe photoshop elements from my old computer, how do I do this?

    If you can access your old laptop & the application over it, you can deactivate your app by lauching it and then selecting "Deactivate" from Help menu. Please make sure you're connected to net for a successful deactivation from the server, which is related to the activation count.
    Wait for a successful deactivation msg to come for a few seconds & you're done then
    For more details, pease do folow the link Nikhil Bise has shared in his post above.

    You should probably just download the trial version of pse 12 and see if you can live with it.
    Download a free trial or buy Adobe products | Adobe downloads
    That being said, have you tried to install pse 1 on your computer?
    How much free space is on your hard drive?
    Do you have Internet Explorer 10 or 11?
    Pse 1 can run on windows 7 x64, provided certain conditions are met.

    I need help moving my Photoshop 7 from my old laptop to my new laptop which is running Windows 7 Enterprise. I’ve tried two routes unsuccessfully. I install the CD, it does not autoplay. I execute Autoplay.exe at the root directory, I am welcomed, I choose English, I accept the EULA, I get the Install/Explore choices window, with the Install button already selected, I click the Photoshop button, the CD spins, and nothing happens.  In the 2nd attempt I execute Setup.exe in the Photoshop directory, and nothing happens at all.  I’m never even offered the opportunity to enter my product code. What should I do?

    There could is likely a compatibility problem between the old software and the newer operating system.

  • How to reinstall Photoshop Elements from old Pc into Mac?

    How do I reintall Photoshop Elements Windows version into my new Mac.  PC was stolen.

    I looked at it, Barbara, but you can't download 9 without the discs.  I
    originally downloaded it online and Adobe now tells me it only has 10 to
    download.

    Did you not look at the link in the thread in my last post, Lorna?
    When you buy software it's your responsibility to keep the media against
    future reinstallations, whether you purchase via download or on disc. If
    you registered your software, for PSE 9 you may still find a download
    link in your adobe store account, if you purchased PSE that way, also.

  • Hi, How to export my Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere 8 Elements from my old PC to my new PC

    Hi, How to export my Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere 8 Elements from my old PC to my new one - both are Windows 7???

    Hi Jeff,
    Thanks for reply.
    I want to transfer/export/bring over images and videos to my new PC.
    I have one licence (and disc) in my old PC for Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere Elements 8.
    Separately I have one unused licence (disk) for  Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10.
    I also then need to understand the smartest and easiest approach to:
    Either I export software 8.0 and images and videos from old to  new PC
    - Or
    I install version 10 on the new PC and then  transfer/export/bring over images and videos to my new PC.
    Great if you are able to guide me in this.
    Regards,
    Per S

    If your copy of PS was for Win, your installation disk is not compatible with Mac.  You can't use a Win serial number on Mac either.  You would need to contact Adobe Customer Care and request a cross grade.  Depending on which version you own, this may no longer be possible.  I believe CS6 still qualifies for cross grades though. 
    Another option is to join the Creative Cloud Photography Plan ($9.99/mo) which includes PS CC and Lightroom which will run on on both Mac & Win.

  • I am trying to reinstall an old version of photoshop elements from a backup drive.

    My computer died and I am trying to install an older version of photoshop elements from a backup drive on a new computer.  I get the following error message " Could not complete your request because of missing or invalid personalization information.  Help?

    Just after double clicking or single clicking on the pse 2 shortcut hold down the Alt+Ctrl keys and keep holding the keys until you get a
    Scratch Disk Preferences dialog and point the scratch disk to your portable hard drive and maybe that will work.
