Will my catalog safely Upgrade from Elements 5 to Elements 8?

I have over 16,000 photos tagged in my Elements 5 catalog. I am hesitant to upgrade to 8 for fear of not being able to reconnect to the catalog. Any assurances or tips? Chet

As long as there is nothing currently wrong with your catalog and nothing interferes with the conversion process, you should have a save catalog conversion.
Besides, when the conversion takes place, a copy of your catalog is created. So even if the conversion fails for some reason, you'll still have your original catalog working in PSE5.

I am attempting to upgrade from Adobe Premier Elements 9 to Adobe Premier Elements 13 after using 13's trial version for a few weeks. I am unable to find where and how to do this without losing the project I have been working on. Please help?

Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and Premiere Elements 13 are standalone products.
So, you can have both on the same computer, but only open one for your work.
The classical recommendation is to finish a project in the version in which it was created since there
is no guarantee that a project from an earlier version will open in the later version. Probably will, but
no guarantees. And, when you do explore this, do it from a copy of the earlier version project. Once you
take the earlier version project into a later version one, you cannot go back to edit the later version edited
project in the earlier version program.
If you have both versions (9 and 13) on the same computer and you have not moved, deleted, renamed any of the version 9's files/folders,
right click the saved closed Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project file, select Open With, and then Adobe Premiere Elements 13.
(Your 9.0/9.0.1 saved closed project file should be found in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0.)
Please review and consider. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Thank you.

Will i have problem upgrading from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Maverick ?

will i have problem upgrading from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Maverick ?

Impossible to know. But I would make a backup before doing so, just in case. I would also do the following:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If you wish to save yourself a lot time should you need to reinstall Mavericks at some point in the future then see the following:
Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
   2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this entire command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
     sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume
     /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time. When completed it would be wise to test the installer by checking that it boots the computer and is then ready for installation.

Upgrading from Adobe Premiere Elements 10 to 13 will my working projects be deleted?

I am considering upgrading from Adobe Elements 10 to 13. Will I delete all my movies and projects I am working on now in Premiere 10? Will it save everything I have already finished? How does this work with an UPGRADE? Thank you.

joni sea
What computer operating system is involved? For now, I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. Premiere Elements 13 does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Mac OSX 10.7.
On your current computer, Premiere Elements 10 project files should still be saved to their hard drive save location. If you move any of the source media that went into those project after the save close, then you are going to have media disconnect issues. If applicable, consider File Menu/Project Archiver/Archive Project or Copy Project options.
https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/using/archiving-projects.html
Premiere Elements 10 and 13 are standalone products. When you go to 13, you do not convert 10 components into 13. "Upgrade" is an Adobe term
related to pricing depending on what earlier version of the program you have.
There is no guarantee that a project created in an earlier version will open in a latest version of the program. Probably will, but no guarantee.
And, once you edit a project created in an earlier version in a later version, you cannot go back to the earlier version to edit the project just edited
in the later version. So, best make a copy of the 10 project file, and use the copy to open in the later version.
Let us start here. Any questions or need clarification on the above, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Problem with field catalog after upgrade from 4.0

Hi experts,
We have recently upgraded from CRM 4.0 to 5.2.
I am now experiencing a problem with generation of a transport request for field catalog in transaction CTFC_CRM. I can generate the field catalog without errors.
The problem is that when I want to create the transport request in our dev system a pop up appears saying "Create object directory entry". Here I have to enter a package for some of the fields in the field catalog. The special thing is that the fields are not custom fields but rather SAP standard fields (using standard data elements). For example field BZIRK.
These are SAP standard fields but they are not standard in the field catalog. In 4.0 I did not get this prompt but this has apparently changed from 5.0.
What do I do? I guess if I need to create the objects I will need to use an SAP standard package. But how do I know what package to use?
Any comments or suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Best regards,
Anders

Firefox will not start after upgrade from 3.0.1

I have Firefox 3.0.1. I would like to upgrade to 3.6, but if I try to upgrade to any version, I cannot open Firefox. It is not like the other "Will not start" problems, because in the Task Manager, firefox.exe pops up, then goes away instantly. I have tried using Safe Mode, doing a clean install by uninstalling Firefox and my profile, cleaning the registry, then using CCleaner, then trying to reinstall, but the problem persists. Sometimes firefox.exe doesn't even show up in the Task Manager. I also cannot use any version of IE(even if I wanted to), Safari or Chrome. They all have the same results. I suspect that it is not a problem with Firefox, but with my computer, but I don't what is wrong. Can anyone help me?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded from 3.0.1

Sounds like something is killing off your browsers before they can start. I really have no idea why Firefox 3.0.1 is working somehow, though.
Do a malware check with a few different programs, you need to use all, because not all programs detect the same malware.
For each of these, make sure they are updated after installing, and run a full scan.

What will I lose when upgrading from Tiger to Leopard

I am relatively new to Macs and am concerned about what I will lost if we upgrade out Mac mini server from Tiger to leopard. There was a time when new Apple computers were not backward compatible, certainly Microsoft upgrades always have issues. Thus I have fear for performing an upgrade from Tiger to Leopard on our server without knowing what we are in for.
I looked at some of the discussion threads here and elsewhere. I see a lot of minutiae but none that would be an issue to me. Then again, no one seems to put out a publication (including/especially Apple) that say here are the possible drawbacks.
I guess our biggest concern in our existing data. Are there any types of document formats that we will no longer be able to read?
I assume Office, Photoshop and those types of programs will be fine as surely the publishers have issues the necessary updates. Is that correct?
Are there any mainstream issues that could come as a surprise to us and present serious problems?
Thank you,
Robert

I guess our biggest concern in our existing data. Are there any types of >>document formats that we will no longer be able to read?
Only if the applications which open those documents run in Classic.
And only if you do not have another program that can open them.
for example, Filemaker...I used FM5 (classic app)...OSX versions of FM were both overkill for my needs and cost prohibitive, so I never upgraded.
Lost access to all those files.
Fortunately, I was able to download a demo of FM9, open the files, export them to XLS format, then open them in either excel or numbers. Of course, lost the database functionality, embedded images were no longer there, and calculated fields failed, but at least the data fields converted.
The issue in photoshop, from what I understand, is saving to a network drive.
(possible file corruption)
Save locally, then copy to a network drive, and pshop should work fine.
Are you already on Intel, or are you on PPC? you may find some other quirks if you are also upgrading to an Intel based system.
Things like QT and browser plugins that are not Universal binaries.

Upgrading from Photo. Elements 3 Mac

I have an old, registered copy of Elements 3 for Mac.
I want to upgrade to the newest version, utilizing my serial number as the software's been paid for.
How do I go about doing this?
MB

To upgrade you just need to purchase the latest version and specify the version from which you are upgrading when making your purchase selections (go to http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html)
You should receive a new serial number for the upgrade version. When you activate the new version you will most likely be asked to enter the serial number from the earlier version to satisfy the upgrade requirement.

Will an BI Content upgrade from affect the source systems?

Our current BW has BI Content 7.02 patch 003; we are planning an upgrade to 7.03 patch 012. Will we have any impact on the source systems (ECC and SRM)? We are trying to decide if we need to archive and backup the operational systems. Since it is a lot of extra work and increases the number of people affected, we prefer not to do it unless necessary.
What type of regression testing is most common after a BI Content upgrade?
thank you very much,
LLK

Hi
As a data fetching from Source system -- the BI Upgrade does nt have any impact on Source Systems normally -- But u need to prepare a check list with before and after upgrade with DS ( Some times DS get de activated while upgradation ) and the DS are source system dependent so you may have to re activate the same based on requirement/possibilites-- And also you may have to empty the Delta Queues on Source System side -- otherthan that no impact , as far I know.
Hope it helps and celar

Will Windows 8 Pro Upgrade from Microsoft works on Lenovo's Windows 8 image?

Hi,
So kind of a strange question, but since Windows has the special price for upgrading XP/Vista/7 to Windows 8 for $39.99, I was wondering if that would work on the factory shipped windows 8 from Lenovo?
Not that I have any particular reason to do it, but it would be nice to have another backup copy since I could only currently put the recovery disk on a flash drive, Windows 8 doesn't seem to support optical ones for creating restore image. The flash drives are a bit easier to misplace I find.

My current notebook wasn't shipped with W8, so no. But it's officially supported by Microsoft. So as long as you have the right edition (Standard or Pro), it will use the key stored in the BIOS.
There was some documents lying around the web regarding this and several posts and articles.
Cheers.
If I helped you, please give me some kudos! ^^

ZSearch Help: will it remain during upgradation from ECC6 to higher version

Hi,
During upgarde from ECC6 to higher versions, will zserach help be moved to higher version automatically or will it be removed and I have to create ZSearch Help again in the higher version.
What about the ZTable, will it be there in higher version or I need to create it again in the higher version.
Thanks,
Priyanka.

Hello Priyanka
Upgrading your SAP system will <b>not affect</b> your Z-objects <b>directly</b>.
However, if your Z-objects reference (i.e. use) SAP standard objects that are changed (or, rarely, are deleted) during upgrading then you may have to adjust your Z-objects. Therefore, keep your (automatic) test scripts available (e.g. eCATT) and run them immediately after the upgrade has been finished.

Upgrade from CS2 to elements 8

Can i upgrade my Photoshop CS2 to elements 8 on line?

Most people would not consider PSE an upgrade to PS. Photoshop is the 747 of image processors, while PSE is more like a Piper Cub. The usual upgrade would be to PS CS5, not Elements. Also CS2 is the last version that qualifies for the PS upgrade pricing this time, which means you'll probably lose that if you wait for CS6.
In any case, yes, you can buy PSE online, but there isn't really an "upgrade" version, just a rebate. If you shop around you can usually beat Adobe's price on PSE at places like amazon or your local big box store, if that's really what you want to do.

Upgrading from Premiere & Photoshop Elements 4 & 6 to 9

Do I need to completely uninstall the older versions of Photoshop and Premiere Elements before I install version 9?
TIA
Marie

Nope. They can both exist on the computer indepedent of one another.
In fact, it's often recommended, if you've started any projects in version 4, that you finish them in version 4 rather than trying to open your version 4 project in version 9 (which often leads to buggy behavior).
I have several versions of Premiere Elements on my computer, and they don't in any way interfere with one another.

I have downloaded the two files needed for the upgrade of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 to version 12 but I cannot open them to make them run and install. What am I supposed to do. One is a very large .7z file just over 1gb in size.

How do I open up a .7z file just over 1gb in size? I have just downloaded this as an upgrade from Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 to version 12. I cannot see any sign of the Akamai program on my computer that is supposed to open and install the two files that I downloaded.

Thanks Hans
I don’t mind mountain climbing but anything serious to do with a computer scares me silly.
I installed the 64 bit version of 7zip and once I figured out how to tell the computer to use the right application within that to open the 7zip file, the big file opened and I was able to apply the .exe file to get things going and installed. In the end the default location the installation chose was program files x86 which I think is the 32 bit folder but it all seems to be ok now.
Many thanks again for your response.
Cheers
Peter
