Small Flip video AVI files - can preview in Organizer but not Elements

Hi all,
I just spent $110 to buy Adobe Premiere Elements 9.  I installed it to my Dell Vostro 1520 Intel Dual Core 2.2 GHz, running Windows 7 Pro.
I have a few small (5-10 seconds each) Flip video .AVI files (standard definition) to use for learning.
To learn, I brought the little .AVI files into Adobe Organizer, and can now double-click on each thumbnail and see the video play clearly, no problem, in the Organizer preview window.  All well and good!
Next I created a new Project in Premier Elements, and used the Add Media button to reference the same little .AVI files.  But when I attempt to preview them in Premier Elements by double-clicking on a thumbnail, I instead see a green/teal-colored rectangle where the video should show in the preview window, although I can hear the audio fine.
Can anybody help me?  Any thoughts or ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Meomoto

Steve --
I have Windows Live Movie Maker.  It offers many of the same features as Adobe Premiere Elements 9, but not all of them.  For example Premiere Elements 9 offers Picture-in-Picture, nicer titling features, etc., etc.  That's why I've just shelled out $110 to buy Premiere Elements 9 (whereas Windows Live Movie Maker is totally free if you have Windows 7 Pro).
Windows Live Movie Maker is a PC-based video editing program, and it does not require and does not use use Apple Quicktime.
So I don't understand why you say Quicktime is a necessity.
But I do appreciate your reply and your thoughts.
I'm still looking for someone who has successfully used Adobe Premiere Elements 9 to edit Flip Ultra (standard definition) .AVI files.
Thanks.

    I'm keen to know if you get a response to this.  I've been running Elements 12 for a year now, and suddenly my Editor is not working.  I'm running Windows 8.1 and just get a message that says "The Editor is not working".    Not very helpful.

  • Flip Video-AVI files HELP

    We bought our daughter a Flip Video camera for Christmas. I was able to download the videos but now they play with sound and a white screen instead of video. The files are AVI. Someone please help me figure out what the heck to do!

    Search these forums.
    In a nushell: According to the directions you install the codec contained on the Flip onto your Mac. Then grab the videos from the DCIM folder and save them to your Mac. You should be able to watch them.

  • Flip video avi files . . . now what?

    Just rec'd 10 or so avi files made with one of those cute flip vid cams. Now what?
    I'd like to edit them in imovie hd 6x but of course I'll need to convert them first. Right now I only have white screen and audio. Do not have QT Pro, but installed Perian. Still same look --white screen and audio. What other components do I need to get going?
    Thx for help.

    My bad . . . I forgot about mpegStreamclip. Opened avi file and converted to dv. All is well, maybe.
    Interesting how original avi file at 12 mg exploded to 82 mg as dv. I used default conversion settings in streamclip. Is that correct? Is there a better conversion format/container I should use for editing in imovie 6 (or FCE)?
    Thx.

  • Avi files work fine on iMac but not new MacBook Pro

    I've had an iMac for three years and recently purchased a new MacBook Pro.  I have a ton of .avi files (movies) on an external drive and have had no problem playing them on my iMac; however, I'm not able to play them on my MacBook Pro.  I have installed Flip4Mac on my MacBook Pro but I'm still getting an error message saying "avi is not a format that can be played."
    Any ideas? 
    Thanks in advance for the help!!!

  • Can see a AVI file on OSX 10.3 but not on 10.4

    There is a AVI (DivX) file on the bottom of the webpage
    http://www.mondatlas.de/lunation.html
    I can see it with Quicktime 7.04 (on OSX 10.3.9 - iBook)
    but on Quicktime 7.04 ( on OSX 10.4.5 - Single G5)
    I do not see anything. What is the reason?
    Yes, I am a complete beginner on multimedia.

    DivX playback and encoding is free even though they attempt to induce you to pay for Pro features.

  • I have Photoshop Elements 8.  I can open my organizer but NOT my editor

    I tried alt ctrl shift and deleted the settings and that didn't do anything.  I tried to restore my system to last week because I unsuccessfully installed a printer the other day.  My computer wouldn't let me restore my system (I've tried at least 8 different times to do this).  I have norton 360 and I don't know how to close out all of the antivirus things that might not be allowing my computer to restore.  I even went as far as uninstalling the whole Photoshop program and re-installing it.  I've been working on this for 5 hours now....please help!

    Try these steps and see if it works for you:
    -  Go to C drive, open Program Files, open Adobe, open PSE file, open  Locales file, click on en_US, open Plug In file, open import export
    - Now right click on Twain_32 and choose rename, rename it to read say 1Twain_32
    - Close out and launch editor again.
    See if this works for you.
    Thanks.

  • My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.

  • How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?

    How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?  I am fimilar with changing the setting for all network partitions(defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true), but that is undesirable when I connect my laptop to my home network. A preferable solution would be where I could control the writing of these files based on disk format (NTFS vs HFS+).

    Go to MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for ds_store. There are numerous utilities for preventing them from being transferred to Windows systems.

    Downloads - I want to open some PDFs/other file types from the internet but not have to save them. I can't figure out how to view them and close them without having to save them first. When I click on a file, the downloads box opens and depending on the setting, it auto saves the file or asks me where to save the file. What if I don't want to save it anywhere, I just want to view it and close it?

  • When I make a video with the camera ipad mini seen but not heard I can do ?

    when I make a video with the camera ipad mini seen but not heard I can do ?

    Yeah, of course you can. All you do is, open PhotoBooth, record your video and then, once you have stopped the video recording just drag the movie out of the bottom of PhotoBooth onto the desktop. It is in .mov format so you can then add it to iMovie for further editing or just upload it to youTube as it is.
    Easy as pie!

    Hi chrisb64054279,
    Are you referring to files stored in your Acrobat.com online account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files? If so, what happens when you try to delete the files? Are you receiving an error message?
    Please provide a few more details about the issue that you're encountering, including what operating system you're on, and what browser you're using (if any). We'll get this sorted out.
    Best,

  • I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

    You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:
    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
    You then need to watch this video to get hang of it:

  • Bonjour - Mac A can see Mac B but not vice versa

    Hi
    Very odd behaviour with Bonjour. Up until yesterday, my macbook pro (call it A) would see my mac pro (B) - it would appear automatically in A's sidebar, I could listen to B's iTunes library on A and so on. No problem and there hasn't been for a couple of years. B could not see A - but I didn't really need it to and this wasn't an issue.
    Suddenly, this morning, the situation is completely reversed. A can no longer see B at all, but B can see A.
    I can connect both ways by using 'Connect', I can ping both ways, but I can't get A to discover B using Bonjour.
    The only think I've done that I can think can have caused the changes is to use Omnifocus sync (with B holding the sync server) - it worked fine all day, but overnight Bonjour seems to have reversed itself as described above.
    Bonjour Browser shows me that B can see A, but A can't see B. I have identical settings on both machines for sharing, network, firewall (all everything).
    Bizarrely, for one two minute period a couple of hours ago, the situation reversed itself (A could see B but not vice versa), but then immediately went back to B can see A, but not vice versa.
    Both computers are running the same version of Leopard (10.5.7). I've reinstalled the OS on B, just to see, but this hasn't improved matters.
    I can find nothing on google or this discussions forum to explain this bizarre behaviour - most support threads seem to peter out without being resolved. Has anyone any idea what's going on please? I'm quite happy getting stuck into the command line, if that's needed.
    Many thanks
    David

    The Macbook Pro is connected wirelessly to the router, the Mac Pro connects to the same router by ethernet.
    As far as I'm aware, I'd made no changes to any of the setups (computers or router) before the problem occurred: bonjour worked fine, but in one direction only (the MBP could see the Mac Pro, but not vice versa). Now, the Mac Pro can see the MBP, but not vice versa - and this is a problem because my printer and itunes server both sit on the Mac Pro.
    I've set all the firewall and security settings I could find to transparent access - and (except for the obvious difference between the wired and wireless links), the setups are identical on both computers.
    By the way, I can connect to the Mac Pro easily enough and transfer files, I just can't see it via bonjour or use Screen Sharing (again the settings haven't changed since they were working!)
    Many thanks
    David
