Don't want Sierra, but impossible to move to El Cap?

10.7.5 running. Need to upgrade the operating system, but do not want Sierra due to application compatibility issues. However the App Store won't let me download El Capitan because Sierra is now available. Help! Is there anywhere else I can find OS 10.11?

If you have a Mac that is either running Snow Leopard or is not compatible with Sierra, you can use them to download El Capitan. Otherwise, there isn't a way.

You should always download each OS if you intend to install it. If you do this, you will still be able to download again from the purchases tab.

Still, Apple withdrew the free OS once it is released.

    If you burn to a DVD disc in first items 10 and later versions, some choices are

    a. DVD-VIDEO standard screen or 4:3 16:9 on DVD disc

    Both will have the frame size of 720 x 480 pixels. But the big screen comes with a 16:9 flag that extends approximately 856/480 16:9 display video after encoding. The screening is not adjustable by the user... and you end up with the DVD-VIDEO format @ 29.97 images per second interlaced.

    b. format of the AVCHD on DVD

    Here is the video display 1920 x 1080. And, depending on the version, can be 29.97 images interlaced per second, or 23.976 progressive frames per second (if not just 29.97 images per second interlaced). Although you can generate some AVCHD DVD with a regular DVD burner, DVD AVCHD is in need of a blu - ray player that supports supported AVCHD DVD or one of these drives multimedia multi which is also.

    c. If the player allows... you can export your Timeline file saved on a USB Flash drive and then insert this USB Flash drive in the drive to get the reading of the file. On this route, you can set the Premiere Elements avancΘs to customize your choice of export preset.

    Is there a way to manually move photos from my Mac to my iPad and iPhone?   I don't want to use photostream because I don't want to use my memory on my devices moble with my collection of photos together.

    With iTunes Sync Photo, you can copy the albums selected to your library of Photos of the iPhone or the iPad.

    See: Sync photos to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch in iTunes - Apple Support

    But this method is available, if you use not iCloud photo library on your mobile device.

    I want my pictures to download on my iCloud but I don't want all my previous photos on my phone because there are just a lot of space and I have run out of space.

    Thank you

    iCloud is a synchronization service, NOT off of storage of the unit.

    You could cut the phone out of sync from your library. Just move them to your Mac and synchronize your Mac with iCloud. Now, you'll have plenty of space on your phone, but no pictures.

    From your Mac, you can then make an album with photos that you want to access from your phone. This will require ongoing work, but will keep your clear phone in most of the time.

  • upgraded to pse 14 but I don't want to lose structure files or metadata within the PES 11

    I am considering upgrading from PSE11 to PSE14.  I intend to buy the normal via Amazon rather than the upgrade version because the full version is cheaper.  However, I don't want to lose my folder/file and metadata structure (for those photos where I forgot to save the metadata in the files - I don't know what are those who are).  What is the best way to replace the PES 11 with PSE14 without doing any damage or loss of information, please?

    Nothing special to do.

    If you install PSE14 on the same computer, your file/folder structure cannot be changed at all: the catalogues contain no files, only links to their location.

    In the installation process, you will be asked to 'convert' the current catalog of version 11 to 14. A new catalog will be created with the same name as before, with all kept, tags, captions, etc.

    You don't need to write metadata in files: version 11 catalogs information is preserved.

    Two different situations:

    -you install PSE14 in another computer: use the backup/restore process: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html

    -Old catalogues are no longer available, only the photo files: then you re-import your files, and Yes, if you did not write metadata to the files, you cannot recover them. Even if you wrote them, you can retrieve tags, notes, notes and legends, but no batteries, sets of version or creations.

    Note: If you don't know which files are missing "written metadata", you can select all and run this command again. Just need some patience.
