The Catalog backup fails

Hello

I am trying to create a backup of my adobe photoshop elements 7 data so that I can transfer it to a new computer. I have not saved to in the prior application.

The old computer is a Windows Vista with 7 elements. I tried to repair the catalog and optimizing it. In accordance with the following instructions:

Troubleshoot catalog | Organizer | Items 6 and later versions

The only aspect that I had not done a check the box 'Re-index of Visual similarity data", who do now, just wait on that at the end I can see if that solves the problem.

The problem I have is that when I asked him to back it up, he came to 5.05 GB and stops and I get a generic message saying there was an error. No code, no indication of what to do...

The new computer is a Mac with 13 elements. I had tried before writing all data from keyword/tag for export of keywords and albums and photos and then import into the new computer. It did not work (albums were empty). I understand reading online that it may not be the only data lost if I can't transfer the catalog...

Then...

  • can I manually back up the catalog and upload it? (I found the catalogue under "all users > Adobe > Photoshop elements > catalogs ', is it possible to simply copy the folder (4 GB)?)
  • can I upgrade the version of photoshop elements at 13 on the old computer and try to convert the catalog and then save? or will it get worse?
  • I have to give up and surrender account that I have lost all the album and related information?

Thanks in advance!

For anyone else who sees this... I've updated the software on my PC using a trial version of Photoshop Elements 9. I converted the old catalog of PSE 7 through 9. Then I backed up the catalogue of the PES 9.

From there I could restore the backup of PES 9 to 13 PSE on my Mac.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium... weekly back ups fail, get the message "backup failed."

    Recently my regular weekly back ups fail to find. Everything seems to go well until maybe halfway through the procedure when the backup stops & I get message "backup failed." Unfortunately, did not keep a note of relative error code... no useful guidance please.

    I'm glad to hear that you managed to solve your problem.

    Flash drives are a medium of reasonable storage but not the best. I recommend that get you a disk 2.5 "500 GB hard in a USB enclosure. They cost less than $60.00. Here's why:

    • They tend to be more reliable than flash drives.
    • They have a much greater capacity.
    • You can (and should!) use them to store an image of your installation.

    On this last point: this time you could solve your problem with system restore and FixIt. The next time you is maybe not so lucky. You may need to do a full reload of Windows which is tedious and often exceeding the capabilities of the user. By creating a picture now, you will be able to restore Windows to its current state, anything.

    You begin the process of creating image via the control panel / backup and restore.

    If you already have a backup flash drive then you could alternate backups between the flash and drive 500 GB. That would give you a rock solid backup system!

  • After using Windows 7 backup, Windows said: "the last backup failed."

    I use Windows 7 Pro backup each week to a separate hard drive. I needed to use the backup today. After using action Center says now that my last backup failed. It is still listed in the backup and it worked, then why is it listed as failed now?

    Event ID 4 means the backup completed successfully

    Have you compared the last backup to backup other files?

    You can try to perform a new backup to make sure that it works correctly.

  • Lightroom crashes after closing and the Catalog backup. Requires "Force quit" on OSX El Capitan (10.11.1). (Both set to upgrade to this week.)

    Hello. I upgraded OSX earlier this week in the latest version of El Capitan. Not using Lightroom since then I think. This morning, LR wanted to update and I let him. Now, LR crashes when I close and let him make a backup of the catalog. I use oSX 'force quit' to close. Otherwise he not re-open.

    Can you please have a look at this issue?

    PS I spotted the new import dialog. Can't say that I like that too. I don't know that I'll get used to it.

  • The Catalog backup of opening after the failure of the computer

    Hi people

    I'm obviously a dunce...

    I back up my images and catalogue on a second internal drive and two external drives...

    Recently, I suffered a complete failure of PC which has resulted in the 22nd of startup that need to be replaced and reinstalled all the software...

    "I use LR 2.6 and thought I could open LR and go to"

    FILE / open catalog... / and then select the second internal drive that has all the files intact and open the catalogue...

    But when I select the required catalog, I get the message;

    "Restart Lightroom with this catalog? ."

    To use this catalog, Lightroom must close the current catalog and restart. You want to relaunch Lightroom with 0950\Lightroom Catalog.Ircat 2 E:\Users\Justinted\Pictures\CatBackup\2010-01-08? "

    I then click "Restart" but just LR closed its doors and does nothing?

    What I do bad people?

    See you soon

    Just

    Because you have moved the images to a new disk, Lightroom knows not where they are.  Right-click on the folder in the Lightroom library and choose Synchronize.  Then you can show Lightroom where you moved the images.

  • "Backup failed. Not enough storage space.

    Original title: image

    W7 32-bit HP. Use the image via Control Panel with success for a long time. However, this morning received the message "backup failed. Not enough storage space. Have you checked and at least ten times more space on the destination like this drive would be necessary for the entire image.  The only change I've made since the last successful backup is to install an SSD on my computer as the main C drive.

    Thanks, but none of it has hit the problem!

    I now it worked. For the benefit of any person who has the problem, Image requires that there is enough space on the * source * system partition of the drive for the shadow file (when get "space insufficient" messages everyone (including me) assumes respect to the * destination drive!)  (Not so).

    This seems to happen to a lot of people who are for the first time in an SSD. Because I had previously shrunk the partition on my drive C primary, preparatory to mounting small SSD (112 GB), the system partition was too small for shadow of the image file.

    Under W7 disk management even if the main partition on the C drive could be reduced to create a space unallocated, the space could not be assigned to the system partition as requiring a contiguous space.

    So I used (free for home) Easus Disk Manager to create space * before * the partition main c and then expanded the system inside partition, making this system partition that is large enough. Everything worked well then!

  • LR Catalog backup hang up - hours

    Hi-

    I never backed up my catalogue - Yes, you heard right. Everytime I try, it goes 2 hours or more and I finally vanish. I have a ton of pictures, so don't know if this is the problem, but it's frustrating and I don't know if this is normal. It happens about 3/4 full and then crashes.

    I want to spend 5.7 LR to CC, that is why I want to make sure I have a good backup, but don't know what to do.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Theresa

    To save the catalog LR just file make a copy of it on an external drive. The Catalog backup copy not all images. You should do that yourself by copying all your images on an external drive.

    The problem you are experiencing probably has something to do with file permissions.

    What is the catalog file (not pictures)?

  • Lightroom could not save the catalog

    I get the following error when trying to save my catalog:

    Lightroom could not save the name of the catalog 'Catalogue Lightroom'.

    I use Lightroom CC 2015.5

    I have over 300 GB of free space on my drive.  I have more than 3 GB of photos.

    Backup follows these steps before the failure:

    Integrity checking,

    Copy of catalog

    Catalog optimization

    The Catalog backup compression


    Any ideas on what to do next?

    I had a chat with Adobe session live support.  She has tried everything that you guys recommended then asked me to delete a bunch of files on my C drive because it was pretty full.  She said that this drive should be at least 2 x the size of the free catalog.  Once I cleaned stuff backup succeeded.  Thank you all.

  • Failed to backup the catalog

    Hi, I have a problem with the LR 3.2 again. Whenever I try to save my catalog when I close the LR, it gives me an error at the end that LR has close without saving my catalog because something is wrong with my preview cache. How can I get rid of this error? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Yes.

    Then go to the library-> previews-> rebuild Standrad Previews to rebuild.

    It may take some time, however. What is your library?

    EDIT: If you have a large image library, try to optimize the catalog first. If it works, you can avoid the long process of reconstruction of the preview.

  • ACS 5.3 - backups fail to TFTP, work on the DISC

    Hi all

    I am setting up ACS for the first time and the configuration is complete and working, with the exception of backups of the database from the view. I created a repositiory TFTP and if I perform a manual backup or wait for a regular if he fails. I get one. tar.GPG file in the TFTP server (but cannot restore him because he is not in the "restoration" as a backup).

    It works fine if I create and use a repository on local disk. I get one. tar.GPG, but also a file catalog.xml and repolock.cfg (which I did not in TFTP). Looking at the logs on the TFTP server, I can see it trying to repeatedly read the catalog.xml file, but fails:

    Request for reading of file . Mode netascii [15/07 16:05:52.167]

    File : error 2 in system CreateFile call, the system cannot find the file specified. [15/07 16:05:52.167]

    This seems correct, that the file does not exist. However he never seems to try to create it.

    (I've created 4 or 5 repositories TFTP test this, all the same behavior)

    Any ideas?

    Paul

    Paul,

    TFTP will not work because the Protocol does not support the directory, what GBA is trying to do is to determine if a backup is running by looking in the file repolock.cfg. He also tries to see the content of the catalog.xml file so that when an incremental backup is triggered, it will add a line of the first full backup, followed by all the incremental backups. Your best bet is to use ftp as the backup, and this will fix the problem you are experiencing.

    Thank you

  • How to integrate the catalog PSE in automated backup?

    Hi, I'm going to set up a backup process automated for my computer to a remote ftp site. Including my pictures are simple, but I don't know how the PSE catalog could be reliably. The help of someone who understands how this work would be greatly appreciated.

    One way that could work, even if it requires manual steps is backup in PSE. After the backups from PSE, I would include the PSE-backup files in the automated backup. The obvious disadvantages are that I have to:

    -do it manually in PSE

    -keep the files backup-PES locally, as an interim step in the procedure, pending automated backup to ftp site.

    I am considering the solution below, that would be more interesting if it works:

    1. instead of keep the catalog in the default location, I offer the catalog ('my photos') in my "D:\Data\PSE9" as a location directory in the file-> catalog dialog box. I guess I have to do this from within the PES.

    2. the "C:\Data" directory (where all the images and the catalog is now located) is backup place automatically at the remote ftp location.

    Now, let's say I have my hard drive fails and all the data is lost. So I re - install windows & PSE. How would then restore the catalog and the files? This procedure might work?

    3. from the remote backup, I restore all the files in the directory "C:\Data", including photos and the catalog folder "D:\Data\PSE9".

    4. now comes the tricky part. I assumed that I would go into file-> catalog and select custom location, set the location custom to "D:\Data\PSE9".

    5. I then would see the 'My photos' catalogue in the custom location, just as it was before the accident?

    6. then I guess that I just opened the catalogue 'My photos' and everything is back to the way in which this is the last backup time.

    This procedure would work and actually produce a reliable backup that can be restored without any problem? A caveat which I foresee is that I would have PSE closed when the backup is actually running, so that I get the file list in the middle of some update or changes. But I can live with.

    Thanks for any help and suggestions on this.

    To put it simply, I guess that your backup already deals with all types of photos and media in your catalog.

    Do not forget to backup included in the Organizer treats these files as the catalog itself (the database).

    Where the catalogue? Consult the menu help/information system. You will find the location of the folder that contains the catalog. This folder contains several files and subfolders. Just include the folder and its subfolders in your current backup.

  • Backup failed with error 18: the backup drive is not found

    Hello

    My guard time capsule saying "Backup failed" for a few days and I cannot access the old backup files either (when I enter my time machine it shows 'today', which is kind of scary, although I know that my old files is still there). I tried many ways to trouble shoot this problem, but none of this has worked. In my opinion, it's more a network problem and I made sure I connect Wi - Fi even my time capsule created.

    So far I have tried:

    -Delete the files from my internet (com.apple.airport.preferences.plist; preferences.plist and NetworkInterfaces.plist, etc.) and restart my mac

    -Remove TimeMachine.plist and restart my mac

    -Hard reset of my time capsule. Went through all configurations with success but then still backup missed (I hear the running time capsule when it is by train).

    I share this time capsule with my wife and she has no problem with that.

    I can only think of a possible alternation I did which could cause this problem.

    Because of unstable WiFi problem, I had deleted

    com Apple.Airport.Preferences.plist

    com.Apple.Network.identification.plist

    NetworkInterfaces.plist

    Preferences.plist

    or other files and reboot my mac * before * I had this problem with time capsule.

    However, this is not the first time I do it, and it wasn't a problem before...

    This could be the reason? If so, how to restore the network settings?

    Please help me with this problem. Really appreciate!
