User Account Control Problems with Premier Elements 7 32 bit in 64 Bit Windows 7

I found User Account Control Problems in other forums but didn't see much in Premiere Elements, so I hope this helps others who may be having problems with 32 bit programs in a 64 bit computor. When I first got my 64 bit I didn't have problems.
Back in February I bought a Quad Core Desktop with Windows 7 64 bit. Haven't been on the forum for 7 months since I wrote in regarding importing video with the Pyro AV Link (Premiere Elements Tips and Tricks). I was having problems importing video which started after March 28 sometime, as that was the last time I didn't have a problem importing VHS. Took me a few months off and on to find out what worked.
I started uninstalling Windows updates and any programs I had installed back to that point in time. Checked after uninstalling each item. The capture screen would come up on a delayed basis but clicking on capture did nothing. Although no driver is required for IE1394 (so they say) I read where some people using the Legacy driver had fixed some problems, so I switched to the Legacy. Seemed to work great (for a few minutes).
I had even uninstalled and reinstalled PE7 but no difference. Finally I noticed a shield in the PE7 Desktop icon. Thats weird. Never had that before. Just decided to show up after I had done all of the stuff I mentioned. Turns out at some point in time since I've had the computor Windows 7 decided to flag my 32 bit program as misusing the 64 bit system. User Account Control. I never bothered too much with UAC and just clicked on the yes box wen it popped up asking if I wanted this or that to take control of my computor. I tried using the minimum setting for safety reasons, and then finally turned User Account Control off. Bingo! PE7 capture works again and still working.
While I am not recommending that people arbitrarily turn UAC off, this appeared to be my problem. I would recommed that they try turning it off before uninstallin a bunch of stuff. Having a restore point may or may not have been a fix for me. I think one of the Windows Updates caused the problem but I am not going to uninstall any more stuff at this point, I have not been back on the internet or installed any more updates in my desktop. I am going to use my laptop for internet and used the desktop for video.
I am guessing this could be a problem for any 64 bit systems trying to use 32 bit programs. IE: XP,Vista,Windows 7 64 bit. In Vista there is also Data Execution Prevention (DEP) which you can turn on or off, supposedly to prevent misuse of memory (as I understand it), but Win7 either doesn't have it or I haven't found where it's located.
Maybe this has been covered in the forum somewhere and I missed reading it. Hope I am not too confusing. Anyway, whatever feedback you guys have would be great.

John,
    Thanks for your answer, and I did check out the link you suggested. However, I have Windows 7 Home Premium as most people have I think, and the XP program was not available. I started with Vista and now have Win 7. I never could navigate around in XP anyway so am content to just leave User Account Control off.
    Interesting side note to turning UAC off is that my desktop seemed to be using more of the CPUs, where half of them were "Parked" as I wrote in also about 7 months ago when I 1st got my desktop. I am pleased to say that video processing seems to go quicker with UAC off. Have to observe things some more to confirm.
    I just thought if others were having problems after installing Windows Updates and leaving UAC off worked then they could possibly pinpoint a problem.

Java User Account Control Problem

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium edition on an Acer 64-Bit Netbook using Firefox 3.6.10 with Java script enabled. I am logged on as the Administrator.
I installed Java jre-6u22-windows-i586-s.exe and it works fine. However, I have discovered one quirk. When I access a Web page in Firefox that uses Java it works fine. However, if I click on a Java Web page link in an e-mail in Outlook 2010 it asks if I want to run Java. I click Yes or No and then Firefox opens the Web page. Likewise, if I attempt to print from a Web page that uses Java I get the UAC message each time. How can I eliminate this User Account Control request?

Even editing my control panel information on this forum causes the dreaded UAC request to run Java.

Problems with Premier Elements 7 Opening Earlier Projects

I have used Premier Elements 3 to create many 15-60 minute videos, most built from Photoshop Elements slide shows imported into Premier, and most with DVD output designed. After installing Version 7, I attempted to open these projects which it is supposed to do. A minority will open fine. The balance either cause the error "The project cannot be loaded - it may be damaged or contain outdated elements".
Does anyone else have these types of problems? I have tried all of the various methods outlined in the KB, like deleting preferences, etc., removing and re-installing, booting with nothing else loaded, etc. Nothing has any impact. I have talked to Adobe support and they are clueless and just walk me through the usual install/uninstall, etc. can anyone help? I have an enormous investment in time in these 3.0 videos and I bought Version 7 to upgrade and now it does not work! Thanks.

Just a thought....
How are you opening the Premiere Elements 3 project in Premiere Elements 7?
According to the Adobe party line Premiere Elements 7 PDF, you can open projects created in earlier versions of Premiere Elements in Premiere Elements 7, but you cannot open projects created in Premiere Elements 7 in earlier versions.
Do you have Premiere Elements 3 and 7 on the same computer at this time?
The Adobe suggestions is, if problems in this regard and instead of right clicking the project file in its saved location, then:
1. open the project from with Premiere Elements 7
or
2. right click the project file in its saved location and name Premiere Elements 7 as the Open With program
Check it out to see if I have interpreted this info correctly

Installation problems with Premier Elements 10

When trying to install I get an error message This installation package is not supported by this processor type. Contact your product vendor. I am using windows 7 with intel i5 core processor 32 bit operating system . Can someone please help me?

Are you installing from a disk, or a download? Is it a 64-bit installer, by any chance?

I can't safe reboot if I choose my user account, no problem with the rest or user's accounts

Hi to all,
Since I've installed ML and also after 10.8.1 upgrade, my account is behaving very strangely.
It does seem to work, but every time I restart in my account, it takes ages and starts up app I've already closed (as if it was frozen when restarted), I get Toast 10, Disk Utility, App Store, Safari, Mail and Photoshop. Slowly, very slowly, in this order. I had improved, as I had some reboots with the Mountain Lion installer asking to instal Mac OS X!
Oddly enought, that first times Finder didn't show when I pressed Cmd-Tab for changing applications, it would show only if I clicked on the Desktop.
I did a clean install of ML and imported from Time Machine. I also did a "upgrade install", that is, over what I had (already ML).
I can't restart or close down unless I do it on the cold way, that is, pressing the power butto, as I can get no shutdown dialog, and if I choose from the Apple Menu, no matter what I choose, nothing seems to happen. Same when I choose "About this Mac", nothing happens, I have to manually open System Profiler.
But, in contrast, I can open from the Apple Menu App Store with no problems, for example.
Now I reboot and shutdown my Mac thanks to the Terminal!
Another "minor" inconvenient is that my Mail Rules weren't imported, and I don't know how to pass them to the new Mail, so all my Mail lies there in the "Inbox" unclassificated
If I go to a different user, then everything works apparently. So it must be something I have added, but it can be something installed many System versions before, so I have no idea on how to track it down, although I've deleted many old applications and preferences, including some problematic Fonts, Perian, etc.
I tried safe boot, but when I enter in my user, screen turns light gray and it doesn't start anything, so I have to force a cold shutdown again with the power button and restart again.
Safe boot with a different account has no problem again.
Sorry for the looong explanation, but, although I can work in my user, I'm worried as my work slows down a lot.
Thanks in advance to any help you can give me!

Sorry for the delay...
I did what you've told me, new account and manually copied my files from Time Machine. I had lots of permissions problems, but at the end, almost everything is in order... It seems it had to be with some of the Apple Preferences, but I can't be sure, as most of them were dumped to the trash can.
I still don't have my Mail Rules back, unfortunately, although I did goggled some. It is a pity, as I had around 30 or 40 of them, getting my mail in order to each of its mailboxes, but it is a small price as the rest doesn't show the before syntoms.
Thanks for the help, anyway!!

ITunes & User Account Control In Windows 7 64 Bit

I have an iPod Touch 5G, and a PC running Windows 7 64 bit. The latest Windows 64 bit iTunes with the latest update that was released a few days ago is installed. When the PC starts, a warning screen appears asking if I want to allow iTunes to run. This is the iTunes Helper app that wants to open first and stay resident so that if I plug in my iPod Touch it will be recognized and open iTunes as designed.
Yes, on the summary pane in iTunes, the “Open iTunes when this iPod is attached” option is checked and so is the option for connecting via wireless.
The only way to prevent this is to turn off User Account Control for the entire PC which of course should not be necessary if iTunes was working as designed with the proper certificates installed.
I have removed iTunes, Bonjour and the two other Apple apps that appear in Control Panel >Programs, then re-installed the iTunes Win7 64 bit file as administrator.
It's installed as the administrator and the only user on the PC, hence by default I am the administrator. I have also clicked on Properties for iTunes, Run as Administrator, but the UAC warning screen will still appear every single time I boot the PC.
How do I get iTunes to be properly recognized so that Windows doesn’t detect it as a rouge program trying to gain access that it’s not entitled to.
Furthermore, this also prevents me from drag & dropping songs from Explorer to iTunes. The only way I can drag & drop songs from Explorer to iTunes is to turn UAC off completely.This is a feature that is explained in the instructions as a means of linking songs from your Explorer folders so they reflect in iTunes.
This appears to have been an issue since 2010 as others have experienced it also, so hopefully by now the procedure for resolving it must have surfaced.

Quicktime does NOT start
Many thanks.
In recent times, the error-message-free iTunes and QuickTime launch failures have been indicating that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Problems with downloading Photosop Elements 12 bundled with Premier Elements 12

Having problems with Photoshop CS5 running on 34 bit Vista

I recently downloaded CS5 Design premium, and I seem to be having trouble running bridge. I'm using MS Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit SP2 on an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40GHz. 3gb of RAM and 256MB GeForce 8500 GT graphics card (if that matters). I was wondering if there is a way to fix this, or maybe a 32-bit version of Photoshop CS5.
And if there isn't, is there a way to remove the bridge access buttons from photoshop? Seeing something useless in a five hundred dollar program bothers me quite a bit. Thanks in advance.

Apparently, something went wrong with your Photoshop installation. I would try fully uninstalling Photoshop and then run the "CS5 cleaner tool" (see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/829/cpsid_82947.html). Then try reinstalling making sure you turn off all anti-virus software and UAC (User Account Control) and run as an Administrator equivalent.
If you still have problems, please contact Adobe Technical support directly.
To answer you question about the buttons, no, there is no way of disabling that functionality.

CS4-64bit in Vista - Keep getting "User Account Control" popup whenever I open a file! Argh

Anyone know how to turn off the lame User Account Control switch for Photoshop? Whenever I try to open a PSD file (even from Bridge), I get the annoying Vista warning window asking me if I really want to open the file.
Anyone know?

"I'm the only one who uses this computer so I naturally log in as
administrator. In order to not get the popup when I open it with PS, are you
saying I should turn OFF administrator settings for Photoshop.exe? Or should
I create a new user (for myself) without Administrator rights?"
Neither. If you create a new user without Administrator rights, you won't
get the popup, but you may not be able to access the file because of the
file permissions. The thing to do is find out what's denying you access to
the files and correct the problem.
To start, use Windows Explorer to locate one of the PSD files you get the
popup with. Right click on the file name and select "properties". The
properties dialog box will have a "security" tab. Select it. At the top,
there is a box labeled "Group or user names". That contains a list that
normally would contain 4 entries. "System", the creator of the file,
"Administrators", and "Users". You could have more or less entries than
that. Click on each entry in turn and the permissions for that group will
be shown in the permisions box at the bottom. Normally, the default is to
allow "Read & execute" for "Users" and full control for the owner, system
and administrators. Look for any that are marked "Deny". If the "Users"
group is missing and your id is not listed as the creator, that could also
be cause of the UAC prompt.
Do you see anything obvious? It's really unusually for this, I'd be curious
to hear what you found.
At the bottom of the security tab there is an Advanced button. Click it and
under the permission tab, it will show you where the file inherited its
properties. Permission are inherited, depending on what needs to be
changed, if you make the correction at the right level, you may be able to
correct the access problems with one change. Click the owner tab and you
can see or change the file owner. Some people just name themselves as owner.
There is quite a bit of information on how to assign and manage permissions
in the help file. Click on "managing permission entries" at the bottom to
access it. It's much to involved to go into detail here. Microsoft could
definitely have done a better job with the security documentation and the
user interface. Let's hope they do a better job with the next version of
Windows.
Turning off UAC is an easy out and you will not need to learn how to
establish permissions to stop the popup, but it will also allow a malware
process to make changes using your administrator rights without your
knowledge.
FYI, the first user defined after a clean install is assigned to the
administrator group by default. Subsequent users are not and are ordinary
users. If you are paranoid or just super careful you could create a second
ordinary user name for yourself as your normal account and reserve the
administrator id for maintenance and cleanup. I doubt many will do that.

Trial version, windows 7 user account control box comes up

Downloaded trial version of InDesign CS4 on Windows 7 64 bit OS system. I've also downloaded the most current update. Initial problem during installation of the program was that it wouldn't allow me to dowload all components, I think when I followed the technical link, it said something about having to edit the registry and something to do with ICC profiles. I skipped that for now, didn't really want to go in and edit the registry until I played with the program a bit.
The question I have right now is, that while I can eventually get in the program and run it, when I click to start it, a Windows 7 User Account Control box pops up asking if I want to allow this program to make changes to my computer. When I click details, it appears the Adobe certificate for this probram is not Windows 7 certified?? Does this happen to anyone else operating on Windows 7?? How do you get rid of that pop up box?? I know I can change my user account settings to not notify me, but that would leave my computer very vunerable so I rather not do that.
Only other program I had bring up that pop up on Windows 7 was Netscape 7, and that pop up box got pretty annoying so I had to go to another browser (yes I know Netscape was out dated, but I loved the email program vs. IE Outlook. I thought maybe it had something to do with my Norton antivirus and called their tech support and they told me no, it was a problem between Windows 7 and the program compatibility.

It's a brand new HP desktop PC with Windows 7 Professional factory insta
lled. Yes, I'm the ony User, have Admin rights.
I looked at the certificate details when the pop up comes up and it lookes like the certificate is outdate, expired 12/10/09. I wonder if I'm getting an expired certificate because it's only a Trial version of InDesign CS4.
I went into the Windows User Account and tried to figure out the certificate manager, but I just don't understand it and can't figure out how to get it to allow this certificate so I don't get this annoying pop up window asking me if I want to allow this program to make changes to my computer everytime I start the program.

Run As Admin - User Account Controls prompt

Unfortunately it doesn’t seem that the problem with User Profiles (where the user profile doesn’t reside in the default location C:\Users\XXX) has been resolved… took two days but I finally was able to down load and install Master Collection…
In Windows there is an Administer Icon on lower 1/3 of the Photoshop Icon, indicating that you need to “Run As Administrator” which wasn’t present in the Beta. And when application is launched “User Account Controls” does prompted you “Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer”
On the - Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe I have changed the “Change Settings for All Users” to “Run this program as Administrator” but as with the Beta I still get the User Account Controls prompt each time I launce Photoshop!
It was a real problem with Lightroom 4… I was never able to create a smart object psd in Lightroom. And creating a psd file required that I create the PSD using Photoshop 5.5 and only after creating the 5.5 PSD could I open the file in Photoshop 6.
Is there some stem that I have missed or some other work around???

You could just turn off UAC? The rest sounds fishy and once for the millionth time boils down to permission/ user privilege issues - just because you run apps as admin, doesn't fix file permissions or group policies. Especialyl since you already mentioned having your user home directories in a non-standard location that could indicate that they are wrongfully inheriting security tokens from the drive's root, which on secondary drives of course would be different fro mthe system root and if they are on a network, that would complicate matters further. You realyl need to check those things and untangle them. and I wouldn't give a penny when something works differently in a Beta - that package may simply not have had a security certificate/ signature or used the one from CS5 so it was recognized as valid...
