USING ELEMENTS 9 ORGANIZER
Managing files and catalogs
Last updated 9/12/2011
To use all the available space on CDs and DVDs, Elements
Organizer enables you to burn multiple sessions onto a
disc. Choose Edit > Preferences > Files, and select the Enable Multisession Burning To CD/DVD option (Windows
only).
1 Ensure that you have a CD or DVD drive with writable media connected to your computer.
2 In the Media Browser, select the items to copy or move.
3 Choose File
> Copy/Move To Removable Drive.
4 In step 1 of the Copy/Move To Removable Drive wizard, select one or more of the following options, and then click Next:
Move Files
Deletes the selected videos and full-resolution photos from your computer after it copies them onto the
CD or DVD. If you want to burn media files to a removable drive without deleting the original files, uncheck this
option. Thumbnails of the items remain in the Media Browser.
Note: The Move Files option is not available for projects and audio clips.
Include All Files In Selected Collapsed Stacks
Copies photos in selected stacks onto CD or DVD. If you selected the
Move Files option, it also deletes the full-resolution photos from your computer. Thumbnails for the copied or moved
stacks remain in the Media Browser.
Include All Files In The Selected Collapsed Version Sets
Copies photos in selected version sets onto CD or DVD. If you
selected the Move Files option, it also deletes the full-resolution photos from your computer. Thumbnails for the
copied or moved version sets remain in the Media Browser.
5 If missing files are detected, Elements
Organizer attempts to reconnect them. Do one of the following:
•
Allow the application to search for the missing files. If it finds possible matches, the Reconnect Missing Files dialog
box appears and prompts you to reconnect the missing files.
•
Click Browse to manually search for the missing files.
•
Click Cancel to proceed without the missing files. Click Yes when prompted.
6 In step 2 of the Copy/Move To Removable Drive wizard, set the following options, and then click Done:
•
From the Select Destination disk drive list, select the CD or DVD drive to which you want to burn the items.
•
Type a name for the CD or DVD in the Name textbox, or accept the default name.
•
Choose a speed at which to burn the items. The highest possible speed for your disk drive and CD/DVD media is
chosen by default. If that speed doesn’t work, try progressively lower speeds until you find one that works.
7 After Elements
Organizer calculates the size and estimated time needed for the archive, click Done. You are
prompted to insert writable CDs or DVDs as needed.
As each CD or DVD is burned, Elements
Organizer lets you verify the disc. Although verifying is time consuming, it’s
recommended, to make sure that the discs are created correctly.
When you finish, it’s a good idea to mark any removable media, such as a CD, with the name and date of the copy.
For archiving, it’s best to use a pen specially designed for safely writing on CDs and DVDs.
