Premiere Elements 9 Will No Longer Work

I can no longer bring up my projects on Premiere Elements 9. I get a serious error and need to close the software. Working backwards by going to a project and starting from there, the software starts to load then disappears. What is happening?

SydandBlue
What did you delete when you wrote
I did a search and deleted a bad video text file to see what would happen
Was that the BadDrivers.txt file? And, that helped? Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 was notorious for its display card error messages. The line of defend was
a. make sure that you have your video card driver up to date according to the information at the web site of the manufacturer of the video card.
and, if that does not work, then
b. delete the BadDrivers.txt file (typically a winner to get rid of the display card error message).
Let us get to the matter of how you are opening these older projects. I get curious when you wrote back door in the following description.
I can go into Premiere 9 through the back door now by going to a .pre file and opening it. Premiere comes up with the project file in the workspace. I can then start a new project by going up and clicking on File New.
I thought that the problem was that you could not open the old projects. You just said that you just did.
Are you saying that you have a new problem in that you can now open the old projects but not the new. That is why you are going about what you describe to open a new project? What you are calling the "a .pre file" is the project.prel file, correct?
Excuse me for asking, but I do not want to take anything for granted, please confirm that you are not trying to import a project.prel file into another project.prel file and that all you are trying to do it open an old or new project.prel file
a. File Menu/New/Project
or
b. File Menu/Open Project
or
c. Or, right clicking a project.prel file, selecting Open With, followed by Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1
Please do not hesitate to let me know if I am off target here in my interpretation of your results.
Thanks.

Video playback on Adobe Premiere Elements 8 no longer works

Windows 7 Professional 64 bit OS
Lenovo T420
i5 Second Gen Proc
8GB RAM
Premiere Elements 8.0
Latest Version Update and Driver Update Installed
Majoirty of video pulled from Flip Camera
What other information is necessary?
I've been working on a video for the last couple of months, and have about 15 minutes of footage. Recently when I opened up the project to work on the last 25% the playback feature stopped working (no sound or audio when play is pressed). I noticed that background rendering was disabled so I re-enabled it, but I am still facing the same problem. I've saved my video in several formats including AVI in hopes that I will be able to finish it at a later date. I am only slightly technical, so please don't waste your time correcting me (I'm sure I've made several mistakes and provided information that is not pertainent to the issue at hand)! Just looking for help, so I can finish my project.
Thank you in advance!

Great news, and actually much better than I had expected - kudos to Lenovo!
Video (and audio) drivers are very fragile things. In regular computing, they are only moderately important, but with programs, like PrE, 3D and CAD apps., the program must interface very deeply with the video driver, and it must be stout. There are many things that can "break" the video driver, and a common one is OS updates. Most Windows OS's are still set on the default update options - fully automatic. This takes place behind the scenes, and the user is seldom aware that the OS has been updated at all. Suddenly, a program like PrE stops working correctly, while most other programs seem to be just fine. Immediately, the user looks to PrE, which is **** just what it did before the OS update - running perfectly fine, but between the program and the Video sub-system, that driver has broken, so things go wrong.
One workaround is to use a System Restore Point, from before the OS update that broke the driver, BUT OS updates are a very, very good thing. Catch-22, if one cannot install an updated driver, that works well with the update status of the OS.
Glad that you found a better solution - new and improved video driver. While you are at it, you might want to check for a new audio driver too, as they are just as fragile, and can bring PrE to its knees.
Good luck,
Hunt

A P Elements 3 no longer works with win 7

A P Elements 3 no longer works with win 7, crashes when I click on preferences and no sound works in editor. So I want to upgrade but not seeing any dates with newer editions. Whats the oldest I can go to work with win 7 64 bit? Like maybe APE 10? Or maybe there is an update to fix 3?

dfishead
I have Premiere Elements 4 through 13 on Windows 7 64 bit, and all are working fine.
You really do not want Premiere Elements 10 on a computer that uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card.
And, 13/13.1 does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or OSX 10.7.
Do check System Requirement as well as computer resources.
How far are you getting with the Premiere Elements 3 install on Windows 7 64 bit? Depending on the answer to that question, have you been installing the 3.0.2 Update
after the 3 install?
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0.2 update
Have you right clicked the desktop icon for the program, if you got that far, and selected Run As Administrator?
When you are trying to get Premiere Elements 3 on Windows 7 64 bit, are you at least doing that by ignoring the "not compatible" messages and moving onward through
the installation dialogs as long as it will let you?
Please review and then let us know the outcome.
Thank you.

"Adobe Premiere Elements 13 has stopped working"

I got a copy of Premiere Elements 13 on "Black Friday" (one month ago). I am using stabilization and sometimes get "Adobe Premiere Elements 13 has stopped working". I have been guessing at the problem and run several experiments - one being; stabilize a clip in it's own project and create an MP4 to use in the final project. The latest clip seems to render fine, but crashes on playback (sometimes this happened on version 12 but not so consistently and often. I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium, with 6GB RAM, 3.30GHz, Intel Core i3 - 4 core processor. I use two monitors with the built-in video hardware. Rendering max's out all four cores while stabilization taxes the RAM. Where can I look to find out more details about this problem (only guessing with anything less)? Thanks for the help.

Ray
Thanks for the reply with further details and results.
The generalization is that you (manually) or the project (automatically) sets the project preset to match the properties of the source media.
But, if you have more than one format to import, you can still import that "atypical" format into the project (a project cannot have more than one project preset). But, the Shake Stabilizer will not stabilize it since it's properties do not match the description of the project preset. You can easily understand this by looking at the description of the project preset that has been set for the project and comparing it with specification of your video source. But, I have not yet found that such a situation creates a project/program "stopped working" as in shutting down the project/program.
I suspect a major factor when you run into a Shake Stabilized induced project/program shutdown is computer resource demands of the feature for the video which is requiring the stabilization. And, I have found that the stabilization times can be long.
Consequently, if the Shake Stabilizer does not cause the project/program to shutdown when asked to stabilize a video clip (without other effects). I am very guarded in the outcome, especially stabilization times, when the Shake Stabilizer is asked to stabilize a video clip to which other effects have already been applied.
We will looking forward to your results.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 4.0 stops working when adding a title

Whenever I add a title, it quickly goes to "Adobe Premiere Elements.exe has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"
What to do? Thank you in advance for any input on the matter.

Let me premise my responses by, Prem Elem had been working fine and this issue just started not too long ago
Processor: 3500+ AMD Athlon 64 processor

Defrag space: just analyzed. All ok
OS: Vista, not sure if fully updated...need to check
QT: just updated
Camcorder: Panasonic PV-GS80
Proj Settings: Not sure what you mean, "New Project?"
I'll make sure Vista is updated. Thinking about getting more RAM. It does say 1GB for on the "System Reqs" for Prem Elem

The Adobe email on my Elements 11 no longer works.

The Adobe email service on my Photoshop Elements 11 no longer works. I have had people tell me they are not getting my photos so I tested it by sending to two different email accounts I have. Nothing received. I checked the History tab in the Photoshop Elements Organizer and it lists the email with attachments as having been sent. This is a handy feature that I really want back. I upgraded from 10 to 11 about 8 months ago and will not be upgrading again if I can't get this feature to work again!
I have Windows 8.1 and use Windows Live email as my default. Since I am using Adobe's email service does my default email service have anything to do with the problem?
I do appreciate any assistance I can get.
Thank you,
Dwight Donnelly

Hi,
I solved my Adobe email service by changing my email address to another account and got a new verification code. I still do not understand why my other email account stopped working? Anyway I am back in business, at least for the time being!

Adobe premiere elements 13 has stopped working message

Every time I open adobe premiere elements 13 and download any form of media, in about every 2-3 minutes when i'm editing my video, A message will come up stating that "Adobe Premiere Elements 13 has stopped working." It forces me to close the application. I went to a computer expert and he said that my computer meets all the requirements of the software and even exceeds some of them since it's only 2 years old. Why does this keep on happening to me and how do I fix it?

senseimike
Premiere Elements 13 on what computer operating system?
Have you updated 13 to 13.1 using an opened project's Help Menu/Update? If not, please do so.
Now the usual drill questions...
1. Do the problems exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
2. Are you running the program as Administrator?
3. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
4. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card. According
to the Device Manager/Display Adapters, how many video cards/graphics cards is your computer using? Are you running
a multi- monitor system?
5. Is the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer along with Premiere Elements 13/13.1?
6. What are the properties of your source media including file extension and duration? Knowing brand/model/settings of the camera that
recorded the videos is probably the quickest way to get at that needed information. What project preset are you (manually) or the project
(automatically) setting?
7. What specific edits are you doing in the project when the program crashes/shuts down? Is there any consistency to the "stopped working"?
You talk about every 2 or 3 minutes in the workflow. But what is the size of the project by the time the problems set in....2 or 3 minutes
from the time you started the project or 2 or 3 minutes after you have been working on the project for 10 to 90 minutes?
Please review and consider the above, and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 10 has stopped working

Actually it has not worked yet.
I just installed the Premiere Elements 10 - again, followed all the details.
My laptop is Acer Iconia 6102 dual screen touchbook
Windows 7, Intel Core i5 CPU M480@ 2.67GHz, sys mem= 4gb
Toshiba MK6465GSX disk drive, Intel HD Gaphics
The computer is new.
The dialogue says that Premiere Elements 10 has stopped working and will shut down.

This machine has only the one drive listed, nothing hidden. 512 gb free, removed some unecessary files. I did manual updates for the hardware and all software, everything is up to date. Went through the preceeding steps. There was no need to scan suorce files, I have nothing uploaded. The program will not complete its startup. The splash page pops up,dialogue flashes all the drivers and files being loaded, then quits. Does not open. The Organizer opens, but I still cant get PE to open thru it either. My computer wont allow me to change resolution. Could the fact that this machine is touch screen, dual display have anything to do with it? Using up too much resources? The resuorce monitor is idle @ 0. My Windows Movie Maker works fine.

Clicking on iTunes ikon and I get the message the item iTunes.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly. What can I do, I can't open Itunes. I have over 4000 songs in iTunes that I had

When I click on the iTunes ikon I get a box pop up which reads Problem with shortcut. The item iTunes.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly.
My computer which is a packard bell vista operating system, recently stopped working as the power supply overheated and blew up and it has recently been sent back to the Know How team at PC world and it seems to be since it came back I now cannot open iTunes. I have also tried to search for iTunes in the search bar, I can see several files, but can't seem to open any of these either. I think that quicktime isn't working, either.
I have over 4000 songs in iTunes that I had recorded from my collectiong of CD's am going to loose all these now? Can anyone help, with very easy instructions as I really don't know what I am doing??
Thanks

I would copy over the entire thing if you have room. With iTunes 10.4 though, you can download any previous iTunes purchases you have made in the past with your current iTunes account. While in iTunes, look at the left hand side of your screen and select "Purchases" and look at the bottom right corner of the screen and select "Download Previous Purchases". If you have an iPhone, iPod and/or iPad...you can do the same thing from each device. Nice new feature...just remember that those ripped CDs need a back-up!!! Enjoy...

I have a ibook G4 which has become redundant as my phone will no longer work with the version of itunes installed (latest it can use), how can I back up my phone to transfer to a new computer (a PC now)?

My iphone 4s (7.1.1) will no longer work with my ibook G4 which is running 10.5.8. I have a PC which i'm now going to have to use, I've manually transferred my music and photos, but how do I go about transferring my contacts and calenders. What does itunes on PC sync to in terms of contacts and calenders?
Thanks!

You can use iTunes to sync the contacts, calendars, notes, Safari bookmarks, and email account information on your computer with your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. iTunes also syncs this information from your device to your computer—for example, if you add contacts on your iPad, syncing adds those contacts to Windows address book or Outlook Express on your computer.

Itunes will no longer work on my Windows 8 PC. When I attempt to start the program a message says: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

Itunes will no longer work on my Windows 8 PC. When I attempt to start the program a message says: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. I have tried to uninstall iTunes but the Windows uninstaller will not delete the program I get a message that says: A network error occurred while attempting to read file: C:\Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi. How do I get iTunes to work again?

Whentrying to uninstall iTunes (the first program that must be uninstalled per the instructions) I get a message: A network error occurred while attempting to read file: C:\Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi. I can't even uninstall iTunes?
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page).
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
(2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Getting error message : the item Itunes.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved so this shortcut will no longer work properly. I get this either using the start menu or the desktop shortcut. I tried going to programs /itunes and repair.

Getting the error message:
the item Itunes.exe that this shortcut referes to has been moved or changed so this shortcut will no longer work properly.
I tried going into the control panel/programs /itunes and selected repair which didn't fix it. Any suggestions on restoring the broken shortcut without removing and re-installing the program?
Running windows 7 home premium SP1
Thank you

I think it is some sort of permissions issue preventing the installer from updating the shortcuts. Is your account an administrator of the machine? If it is and you still have the problem then you may need to explicitly use the "Administrator" account for the install.

My Iphone 5 will no longer work wiht my Bose Dock? The dock is two years old and I'm using an "Apple" 30 pin to Fire adapter? It stopped after software upgrades?

I Have the exact same issue. Bose sound dock 3 and it does not work for me with my iPad air 2 and iPhone 5 anymore.

Is it to do with updating to iOS 8.1.3?
Thanks.

I have made a website using iweb, as this will no longer be supported by apple, does that mean the gallery I have created on my website will no longer work even though I am hosting it with a different hosting provider. Will the other widgets no longer work?

There are a few things that won't work on other hosting sites; hit counters and pop-up slide shows for sure.

Which Apple app's will no longer work in Mavericks?

I am using OS 10.8.5 on my MacbookAir. I was contacted by Apple to download a free update to Mavericks, OS 10.9.
I am very suspicious after having been many times forced to buy new apps working under newer Apple operating systems, because some previouly working apps suddenly no longer did after an Apple System upgrade was installed.
I lost mountains of important files created with Applesworks, including important spread sheets and data files which suddenly no longer opened because the Apple appllication used to create them was no longer supported by the newer Apple OS.
I also recall the total mess with earlier iMovie and iDVD updates most of which ensured that previous iMovie and IDVD schemes coukd no longer be opened or used.
Since Apple does not inform users of such problems before the updates are downloaded, maybe it will be of great benefit to get
a reply from other users who have upgraded already to Mavericks.
So which apps, if any will no longer work, if the OS is upgraded to Mavericks?

You were contacted by Apple to download Mavericks? Really?
We wouldn't be able to give you a blow by blow description of which apps will or will not work with Mavericks. There are a lot of people who have upgraded to Mavericks and are not having any issues whatsoever.
There are others who seem to be having every possible issue you can think of.
I would imagine that the difference in experiences here is due to the types of sofware people are running, the amount of CPU capacitity they are using to run various apps, games, etc. Whether or not they are running non-Apple applications, how often they have dropped their laptop, etc.
Since you seem concerned with messes, and problems, and losses of files, then unless you have some burning need to upgrade right at this very moment in it, it seem like it might be prudent to wait.
That's what I am doing. I am perfectly happy with Mountain Lion. There is nothing in Mavericks that I feel I can't live without for awhile. Eventually, I will be upgrading to Mavericks, because I don't want to fall behind in OSX levels for my machine. But for now, there is simply no pressing need to do so.
Bugs are being worked out. Fine tuning is being done. Enhancements are being made.
So, why rush into somehting that has been out for only two months....what's the hurry? It's not going anywhere anytime soon....
