jim_air Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 <p>Recently I bought a new larger hard drive G because my existing one F was too full. I copied all of the photos from the F drive to the G drive. I deleted from the Photoshop Elements 11 Catalog all my 29,000+ photos from the F drive but not from the hard drive itself, then installed the photos from the G drive into Photoshop Elements. That process seemingly worked fine however next day when I went into Elements Organiser, all of the photos were showing as missing and when I selected a photo I was told it was in "I" drive ???, but on searching Elements started to search in the F drive. Why hasn't it retained the knowledge that the photos were imported from the G drive ?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosvanEekelen Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 <p>Check (in finder or explorer) if this is a PSE thing or an operator system problem. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Ingold Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 <p>Does the computer recognize the G drive? If so, check the setup for Elements and make sure it looks for the catalog in the new drive.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_air Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 <p>Hi Jos & Edward - it is definitely a PSE problem. Windows Explorer does recognise the G drive, but not any "I" drive, which is good because there is none. <br> <br />When I go to the hierarchy view of PSE it shows everything under the "I" drive but when I go to delete the word "delete" is greyed out. <br> <strong>Edward</strong>, how do I "check the setup for Elements" please ?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Ingold Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 <p>I don't have Elements, but there should be a menu item called "preferences," which allows you to specify the location of the catalog.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_air Posted October 10, 2016 Author Share Posted October 10, 2016 <p>Unfortunately, Edward, in Elements one chooses what to import, including which drive. I chose correctly but for some unknown reason Elements decided differently. I may uninstall, then re-install the program.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
