Can someone please tell me where to look for detailed instructions regarding moving PSE 4, along with all of its databases and photos, to a new computer?
Thank you very much for your replies, Mike and Scott,
I was already quite a ways down a parallel path when I received your replies. After quite a bit of digging in the (Adobe) PSE 4.0 forum, I found that a couple of people had had success by doing a "Backup" (within PSE), on the old machine; and then, after installing PSE on the new machine, doing a "Restore" to the new machine. After a good measure of stumbling around I was able to make this work. (While at the same time trying to make a new network work.) Anyway, bottom line, all the pictures came across fine, and all the tags and collections appear to still work fine. The file structure was moved around a bit, but that hasn’t seemed to bother the new PSE installation. If you or anyone else is interested, I’ll try to write up what I did.
Thank you again, very much, for your responses,
David
Oh, and thanks for the FAST link, Mike — I have looked at it, and need to get into that for the rest of this project
