Incorrect in catalog after new SSD drive letter

Had a new SSD installed in windows 7 desktop computer.  It is now the C drive and the old hard drive is F.  All pictures are on C as it's catalog (by the information in the title of the help system), but the catalog shows the way for all the photos on disk F. There are no pictures on the F drive.  I can open pictures, but can not add new ones.  New digitized photos go to C and elements automatically 'find' but the new photos screen is just a '? ' and the items cannot bring in the catalog. I have about 10,000 images. Any help wood enjoyed. Thank you

This is how works the Organizer. The drive is not recognized only by the letter but also by the serial number of the drive. (The reason for this is that removable drives can change letter when it is plugged according to other devices already connected). That's why one of the tips more repeated during the replacement disks or computers is to use the backup/restore method.

Using Backup, Restore to move the catalog | Organizer | Elements 6 or later version

What can you do now? I guess you don't have the necessary full backup for this process.

You can 'log' files:

Photoshop elements (PSE) knowledge base.

It is not easy and a lot of time, generally.

Or you can copy your folder tree of photo to their original position on the F drive (except those newly imported). Who should reconnect everything.

Once reconnected, remove all the image on C files.

You can use the backup and restore method to recreate everything in your C: drive.

Or simply use the Organizer to bring back these files from F to C.

In the left panel of folders, you can drag and drop your folder from F to C tree (be patient for this copy). The files in the Organizer will not be cut.

    You have the same start-up problems 8 win using the original HDD equipped Tecra R950?

    From my point of view, it would be possible that this laptop does not start successfully because of the new SSD.

    I recommend you check the previous HARD disk.
    If the laptop could start correctly, the problem is related to the new SSD drive.

    In some cases, it would be possible that the SSD firmware must be updated.

  • The value of creating a section of boot on a new SSD drive, an HP recovery disc?

    I got a Kingston SSD 120 GB for Cristmas. Happy me! I have problems because the instalation of all recovery discs fails by copying the files from the recovery partition. Then starts the copy function, but stop at 12% and then nothing happens. If I try to reboot the computer tells me the man is no boot disk. Is there anyone who has had the same experience? What can I do? I just bought a full set of HP recovery disks.

    Unfortunately, he says does not work. I got a message that there was an orror with the disc, and a recovery was not possible. I reduced the size of the recovery so that my new drive was big enough, but it won't work.

    I bought a HP recovery media something like $ 50, espesialy designed for my installation. He din will not work either.

    I downloaded Windows 7 Home premium software of windows, installed forum Web site a TI went well spent, except my password that I have only an OEM license. Software OEM can only be downloaded, isen can't this sad!

    Now I suppose that I wil have to buy a new win 7, with lots of media, to get because I guess I give up with HP and missing support. I will newer buy a HP computer again it comes in terms of dealing with HP, even computers normally work well. I think that I bought about 5 HP PC so far.

    At least, I hope I get a refund on the useless software that I have purchased from HP.

  • Move catalog to new external drive

    I'm trying to move a large catalog (including photos) on a larger external drive.  I have "supported" to drive a third.  And then "restored" to my new drive.  But when I gp at file > catalog and that it points to the folder where I placed the restored catalog, the button OPEN is not enabled.  I can't get PSE8 to open the new catalog.  Help, please

    Thank you

    The "restored" catalog appears in the folder when you go to file-> catalog and select the folder containing the catalog 'restored '?

    What happens if you click once on the name of the catalog? The Open button becomes selectable then?

  • LR break during importation and development after installing SSD drive followed by 10 Windows

    I recently had my hard drive replaced w / a SSD and also had installed Windows 10. I was already running Windows 7 Home Edition. Had problems installing the creative cloud app manager, followed by matters more LR and PS installation. LR would launch, but eventually crashing. Contacted Adobe support and must go and fix some file due to error that I was getting (does not solve it) and do not remember the name of the file now. It was like last week some time. Uninstalled and reinstalled LR, always crashing while importing and developing.

  • Difficulty of startup disk after copying the OS to new SSD

    This morning and used EaseUS partition wizard to copy the recovery partition, OS partition (C :) and unnamed in the SSD partition, I received a shiny new SSD. I should have used one of the many software migration available but I didn't, so I've been running a few problems. I have everything but the d: more expanded and copied in the new SSD drive C (on the SSD) to occupy all of the space allocated.

    From there, I set my BIOS to boot from the disc SSD and Windows loaded normally, so I assumed that the new drive was working how I wanted and erased everything except the D drive on the old drive. After the reboot, I have met with a cursor flashing instead of the windows logo 7.

    After some research, I think my problem might by one of the following:

    The operating system on the new drive partition was not set up active, is not loading at startup.

    The system partition does not recognize the new, larger OS partition and must be reset to match the new partitions.

    The OS copied on the new SSD is simply not bootable.

    I used my laptop (Ubuntu) to check the SSD drive, and all the OS files are there, exactly how I expected to be after you copy the files using EaseUS.

    I have the Windows 7 installation disc, as well as the old HDD and the new SSD. I can do to fix the OS on the SSD so that I don't have to do a new clean install, or who is my best option?

  • Reinstall Windows 7 on new SSD after failure of hard disk, damaged, incomplete product key

    I have a HP Pavilion.  The HARD drive recently failed completely, no possibility to recover data at the moment.  I ordered a set of HP recovery disks, but they seek the recovery on the HARD drive partition; There is no such partition that I replaced the HARD original with a new SSD drive.  To make things worse, the place that HP has chosen to put the Microsoft product key sticker resulted in the product being partially faded key.

    So, to summarize: HP not Pavilion with a corrupt OEM HDD and so far no data recovery possible. a new SSD with no partitions on this subject; a set of recovery disks from HP that don't just work; a sticker with the product key with the first two digits of the product key (as well as some of the barcode, etc.) rubbed off because they have chosen to place the sticker on the bottom of a working computer instead of, say, under the battery, it can be protected.

    If someone in the community has a suggestion as to how to install Win 7 (must be 7 on this system, cannot be an iteration of 8 or 10) from scratch, without having to buy it and with a corrupt OEM disc and a partial product key, I'd love to hear it.  Maybe it's time to install Debian on it?

    Ahh, this is the crux of the problem... the bootmgr is missing.

    To restore the windows off the factory restore DVD, you must configure the BIOS to use the DVD drive as the primary boot device. The machine will then start on the first DVD, and you will not get the above message.
