How can I delete ALL offline files in the catalog?

I have Photoshop Elements 10 and a catalog with more 60 000 items in there.

About 10,000 of these items were on an external drive ("E: drive"). The E drive crashed, and all of these files are now on another external drive, drive F.

On the E drive, they were in a folder structure very disorganized with hundreds of subfolders. I think the best thing to do is just dump all the entries in the catalog on the E drive and re - catalog them the F drive, with a better structure.

However, the only way I can see to do this is to manually remove EACH of the hundreds of subfolders.

Any ideas for me?

Thank you!

Mary Miller

OK, Mary, one step at a time:

  1. Close PES.
  2. Open the Task Manager Windows and the 'Processes' tab, kill all processes running Adobe or PhotoShopElements.
  3. Use Windows Explorer to access your catalog directory.
  4. Copy the directory catalogue, including subdirectories, to another folder for extra security.  This will allow you to come back where you started if...
  5. Back in your catalog directory, make a copy of the
    Catalog.pse10db
    file (which will become 'catalogue - Copy.pse10db'.
  6. Open Database.Net and use the button "Connect"... "SQLite"... 'Open' to open your file "catalog.pse10db".
  7. Right-click on the "volume_table" in the left panel, and select 'Open (lines Top 500)'.
  8. Note that the values in the column 'id' for your volume "E:" and that "F:".
  9. Click on the "New query" button to the left of the button bar.
  10. In the new tab, paste this query, substituting your ID values between the quotes:

    Update media_table

Set volume_id = "."

where volume_id = "."

11. click on the "Run" button in the button bar.

Disconnect from the database, output Database.Net, cross your fingers and open the Organizer.

  • How can I delete all related files to Itunes from my PC.

    I am trying to completely remove iTunes and all the files associated with my PC. NOT my account, just the files on my PC.

    I have followed the instructions to uninstall, followed all the steps and even manually delete the folders he has missed.

    Method 1

    I suggest that you scan and remove any malware or computer virus infections and check if it helps.

    You can also use Microsoft Security databases to scan your computer

    If the previous step fails, then check if the problem persists in the safe mode and after back with the results.

    You can (and should) get the free mp3tag: http://www.mp3tag.de/en/

    Install mp3tag.  When you install, let it be added to the context menus (an option during installation).

    Open mp3tag and in tools, Options, Tags, Mpeg do option Write ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1. Those are tags favorite rocket, and once make you it by default, whenever you save tags in mp3tag you will get tags Fuze and respectful.

    Your albums may not be labeled at all, or may be marked in ID3v1, who will not read the "rocket". So he goes to the title, if there is a title tag or file name if there are no tags.

    You can now right click on an album folder and see mp3tag as an option to open it. When you click mp3tag, you'll see the files listed. Put them in order from top to bottom - you can try clicking on the header of the track-number or the name of the header file if they are 01-Track 1. If you can align them up and down, highlight all the and click Dial automatic tools Wizard with the option of leading zeros. Bingo: Track numbers 01, 02, 03, and they will play in the order.

    Sometimes people put numbers to track on the file names and they list in alphabetical order by song title - not good. If the "rocket" Impossible to find track numbers and the name of the file is FirstSongTitle-01 (rather than 01-FirstSongTitle), the "rocket" will play them in alphabetical order by name of file: FirstSong, FifthSong, FourthSong, SecondSong, SixthSong, ThirdSong. Then you will have to put in one of the track numbers.

    Because it's a new account (even if with the same name), the restore procedure is unable to put files and folders in the same place, they came (because this place technically no longer - if yes, then the process is done and the transfer is complete). It can create a set of separate files (maybe even under a new user name, if it has been stored in this way).  If so, all you need to do is copy the data as you would copy any other files and folders (not the main files of the user profile themselves but the data in them) on the new files in your user account and who will take care of the transfer. Here is more information about the restore procedure which may help you in the process.

    Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

    This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

    Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

    I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

    1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

    2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

    3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

    4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

    5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

    6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

    7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

    8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

    9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

    10. and you press "next".

    11 guess what... no error!

    12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

    13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

    I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).

    I hope this helps.

    I thought that my computer was destroyed.  Nothing I tried would bring it to the top, so I decided to use the system recovery disc that

    came with my computer.  I've also downloaded all the drivers for the application.  My computer is back on, but I lost everything.

    without success.  Is it still possible to recover these lost files?  Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello

    I'm sorry, but when you did the recovery of the system you have disabled your hard drive of everything, including your files.

    You now have a new computer.

    You can try this program (it's free) to see if he 'can' find and recover your files. no guarantee:
