Adobe premier elements 12 will not open.

Hi
My Adobe Premier Elements 12 will not open.
It did open about 12 hours ago when I was busy working on video edits. Then I closed it, went to sleep and got up in the morning to carry on editing - bt it wont open anymore. There are no error messages coming up.
I double clicked on the icon on my desks top, as well as tried oeping it from the start menu - same responce - nothing happens.
what can the problem be ?
If I uninstall and then reinstall - will this affect any of my videos that I am editing but have not rendered or saved yet ?
thanks - I need help urgently.

Lorenzochetty,
Welcome to the forum.
As one of the main reasons for PrE to not launch is the video driver (more on that in a moment), can you provide us with some details, please?
What OS version are you running PrE 12 on?
What is the make and model of your video card/chip (GPU)?
What is the installed version of the video driver?
Is that the latest from the nVidia, or AMD/ATI Web site?
Also, what anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-anything software are you running?
If you are on Windows, and have Windows updates set to Automatic (the default), then a simple OS Update can render the video driver obsolete.
Good luck, and let us know more please.

How can I contact adobe? Elements will not open and it tells me to contact adobe, but I can find no successful way to do so

I cannot open elements. I get a message to restart my computer and if this doesn't work to contact adobe. Numerous restarts have not worked and I have been trying for 3 days to reach Adobe with no luck. I cannot get through online and when calling the customer support phone number, I spent 2 1/2 hours listening to music on hold and gave up without ever hearing a human voice. This is ridiculous! Can anyone help? I really need to be able to use the software.

This is the photoshop elements forum and PSE is not part of the cloud. I would suggest that for Muse you should ask in the Muse forums:

Make sure your user account has full administrative permissions. Then, at this stage of the game, I would take the following steps:
- Re-create the Preferences file following these instructions:
Re-create the Photoshop Elements preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
Note: When you use this solution, Photoshop Elements will create a new preferences file and you will lose custom settings associated with your current preferences file. However, the file you rename in step 2 is your original preferences file. If you determine that the preferences file is not causing the problem, then you can restore your custom settings by undoing the instructions below.
To re-create the Photoshop Elements preferences file:
Quit Photoshop Elements.
Locate the Adobe Photoshop Elements preferences files. In Photoshop Elements 5.0, there are two preferences files, one for Organizer and one for Editor:
Users\[ user ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Organizer\psa.prf
Users\[ user ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Editor\Photoshop Elements 5 Prefs.psp
Rename the extension for the files (for example, to psa.old).
Start Photoshop Elements. Photoshop Elements creates a new preferences file.
I doubt that this will fix your problem, however, it is always the first thing to try. If it does not, take these steps:
- Uninstall Photoshop Elements
- Run the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301)
- Reinstall Elements
- Reinstall the 5.0.2 patch
Good luck,

Adobe Acrobat 11 will not open files in IE 10.0.06

Adobe Acrobat 11 will not open files in IE 10.0.06. Problem started about 2 months ago. It can open older files on computer but cannot open or downloadd any from internet. Using Office 2010. Already spent an hour with my computer tech support under warranty. Please help identify issue. Thanks

As a web designer - IMHO, Internet Exploder is absolute garbage disguised as software. This (and thousands of other threads in this and many other forums throughout the web) is just more proof of that. I've used Firefox since 2002 when it was still called Mozilla. It does about a million things IE can't and won't, and does them better, faster, and more sensibly.
Microsoft KNOWS that most corporate workstations have Windows and most I/T departments forbid installation of unapporved software, including browsers, so (by a very slim margin) IE is still the most used browser in the world, but... that doesn't by any means make it the best choice. Because they know so many people are literally FORCED to use it at work, they will not make it more functional than they absolutely have to, because they don't care if people like it or not, when they have no other choice.
On a home computer, it's different, and that's why Firefox is just a fraction of a percentage point behind IE in worldwide use, and thanks to iPhones, Safari is rapidly climbing the numbers too.
Rather than trying to work around something that even Microsoft won't bother to fix, abandon their junk and go with Firefox, Opera, Chrome or Safari. It won't be long till you're glad you did.

Adobe reader X will not open files on the web. It works fine on off-line files.

If above steps doesn't work then let me know which Browser you are using, may be we have to do some settings there.

Adobe Premiere CS3 will not open!

Adobe premiere CS3 will not open. When I click on the Adobe icon on my desktop, I get this message: This application has failed to start because prm.dll was not found. I've tried several things such as: uninstalling the program then reinstalliing it. I tried to open Adobe by clicking on one of my projects by opening MY Computer from start on the taskbar, then click on c drive, etc. but it will not open. Before I started getting the error message stated above, when I clicked on the icon, the program would load to the point of showing the top portion of the page (file, edit, etc.) then stop. It would never fully load. HELP!!!!! I'm in the middle of trying to meet several deadlines.

First, search your system for every instance of prm.dll. See if you have one (could be corrupt, but a Repair Install should have repaired it) in your PrPro CS3 folder hierarchy. Do you have any more? How do the dates and sizes compare to the one, if there is one, in PrPro? Here is a LINK to a .dll site. I do not know this site, so cannot even comment on their .dll's. I'd do the first suggestion, well - first.
Also, I do not know this .dll. It could be a VST from an Audio editing program, or similar. Some of these have been known to bring PrPro to its knees, at launch. Might be worthwhile to check into it a bit more.
Also, take a look at Event Viewer. This ARTICLE will give you some tips on what to look for. Could be more happening, than the error message might lead one to believe.
Good luck,
Hunt

Photoshop elements will not open

My photoshop elements 10 and my phoposhop CS3 will not open at all they go to a black screen.Three days ago it opened. before that it had not opened for several days. Before the problem with it not opening, it would not load photos to edit them. I have tryed to look at the compatability, etc.
I am afraid to delete and reinstall. When I look in my photos I do not see the photos that I have edited. HELP

Start PSE to get to the Welcome screen.
Hold down the Ctrl + Shift keys and click Organizer. Keep holding down the keys until you see the Catalog window.
Select your catalog and click Repair. Select “repair anyway” even if PSE doesn’t find problems.
Then for good measure, click Optimize.
If repairing resolves your issue then fine else repeat the above steps, but click New to create a new catalog. If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works fine, then problem can be old catalog.
Check for Task Manager and end the "ElementsAutoAnalyzer.exe" file and then try.
- Try launching Organizer directly from the exe with Admin rights.

My Adobe photo shop will not open

All files,without prompting, come up missing. Now adobe will not open because of missing files directs me to re install but I cannot do that it appears without buying back in. We just erased the version once and downloaded again prompted by your tech but Now I am out and cannot get back in. Lost some very valuable images not replaceable. Purchased the program Nov 23, 2012. Lots of trouble with it. Would gladdly settle with my money returned but if not need to have the program work. I am out a lot of money if I lose my images. My email is
[email protected]

Sorry I did not know you do not have techs is it more important to know
that than why in hell your program loses images and now I cannot get
back in. I explained I tried to download but was directed to a window
which payment plan I wanted one yr two years three years and the costs.
So myh question is can you help me? Someone representingt Adobe took
over from Iyogi trying to help and took over the downloading but the
downloading was not complete at first I could only access one have of
the page of Adobe Photoshop element 11. So do you have some advise for
me or are you more concerned with the accuracy of my misdirected
queries. This is the first time I have every had an answer like yours.
Do you have someone in yhour company who can help with my problem or
not. I can use other methods if necessary to have my money returned.

Adobe Premier Element 11 not working on Mavericks....

After upgrading Mavericks OS, my adobe premier element 11 purchased at Apple Store is not working and keep on crashing. Any solution?

1st - exactly which operating system?
2nd - From the Premiere Elements Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042180
•You MUST use an account with Administrator Privileges to run Premiere Elements
•(Doing Run as Administrator http://forums.adobe.com/thread/969395 [says Encore and also for "All" versions of Premiere] will sometimes fix "odd" errors)
•What version of Premiere Elements? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Elements 12 with the 12.0.1 update).
•What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.9.4"---not just "Mac"
•Has this ever worked before? If so, do you recall any changes you made to Premiere Elements, such as adding Plug-ins, brushes, etc.? Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers; or installing/uninstalling any programs?
•Have you installed any recent program or OS updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
•What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
•If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
•What were you doing when the problem occurred?
•What other software are you running?
•Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed? How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
•How many and what speed are your hard drive(s)... ie 5400rpm or 7200rpm or?
And some other questions...
•What are you editing, and does your video have a red line over it BEFORE you do any work?

Adobe Bridge CS6 will not open

Just started trial of Adobe Photoshop CC ( CS6 and Bridge CS 6)
Photoshop downloaded ok but Bridge CS6 will not open after installation.
I have used Adobe Bridge with CS2 before but since removing CS2 and installing CS6 and Adobe Bridge 6 64Bit Adobe Bridge will not open.
Help
watchet7

CS2 seems to conflict with CS6. One user found this to work. AppData is a hidden folder in case you try this.
I finally got it to launch via instructions from another web page. In my case, I am running Win 7 Professional 64-bit and previously loaded Photoshop and Bridge versions CS2 (along with Illustrator and InDesign CS2), which might have been part of the problem. The solution for me was to create an empty "Bridge CS2" folder in the C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\. Worked like a charm.
You might have to use the Adobe Script Cleaner to get rid of traces of the CR2 files.

Adobe Bridge CC will not open

Hello,
I have quite a few CC products downloaded. Everything has been working fine, but then Bridge stopped opening. I uninstalled Bridge CC and reinstalled and I still can not open the program as a stand alone, or from within Photoshop CC. I click on the application, the icon bounces on the bottom doc and then closes. In Photoshop, I click "browse in Bridge" or "open Mini Bridge"-I get a message, "waiting for Bridg"e and then the program does not open.
I started having a problem when I followed Adobe's directions and tried to add the "Import Workspace ( I was trying to made contact sheets in Bridge) into the approporiate application's folder in Bridge. For some reason, this computer did not like me doing this. On my other mac, (not running maverick), everything (the import panel was successfully added) is fine. I went ahead and unistalled Bridge and reinstalled it on my laptop, but still can not open Bridge.
Before I uninstall and reinstall Bridge CC again, I have a feeling there must be something else I should be doing or checking to see what is going on. Is there a hidden cache? I have just updated all my cc apps and thought maybe there was a bug, but the program still will not open.
I am using mac, Maverick.
Here is a screen shot of the program folders.
Help would be appreciated as the hold time for Adobe is 30 minutes plus.
Thanks,
Cheryl

Probably same fix posted on Feb 5.
If the person posting the original post would Mark post correct then people would know problem has been solved.

Ok, 6 hours later it's a fix for me!
Not sure if it'll work for you but it was quite simple.
Open Finder > (go) Computer > Macintosh HD (for me) > Users > Click once on the Home icon (main admin) > Get Info >
click on lock and authorise bottom right > click on cog wheel drop down > click on 'Apply to enclosed items' > OK
Close info window and try to open bridge

Help! Urgent and worried about deadline! Adobe Premiere CC will not open. Is there a way to open the application? Thank you!!!

My Premiere Pro file crashed during closing and now PP will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and it still doesn't work. I get the same message on another computer too.
Thank you! I will miss a deadline if I can't get this to work!

My adobe CS2 programs will not open on my macbook pro osx 10.5.8

Today my adobe cs2 suite programs will not open. They were working just fine a couple of days ago. And they have worked fine for years. I did not update to any new os that would cause them not to work. I really need to get some image work done soon and this is a real monkey wrench in my plans. I uninstalled everything and tried to reinstall from the disc and it would not let me do that either. I tried to download picasa just as a quick alternative to get some images edited tonight and it would not let me open that either, even though it said it was good for 10.5 or above. So the only thing I can think of is that I downloaded something that changed some settings?

Try http://www.lemkesoft.com/ GraphicConverter instead.
Mackeeper can also be a problem:
