Windows message that reads APE's has stopped working

I have a new Sony Vaio and Premiere Elements 4 was preinstalled when I bought it. I'm now trying to create a movie and I've never used PE before, I can add various clips into the sceneline as well as titles, but when I go to preview my video in the preview screen it plays about 10 secs of a clip before just closing the whole program down and coming up with a Windows message that reads
"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."
I haven't had a solution! Please help, its really frustrating, I just want to get started with my movie and I can't.
Thanks
Gemma

You don't say what operating system you're using, what your system specs are or, most importantly of all, what type of camcorder your video came frame, but all of these things can affect the program's performance.
Another large factor is outdated firmware and, especially, outdated Quicktime.
Because there are so many possibilities, I'd recommend you contact Adobe Tech Support and do some troubleshooting with them.

  • I purchased Premiere Elements 13 a few weeks ago, it downloads without issue, but I can't open it. I get an error message that reads "Elements 13 has stopped working" HELP!!!

    I purchased this online, downloaded it without issue, and it won't open. I get an error message that states "Elements 13 has stopped working"
    I have removed it and redownloaded it several times, and still no luck... HELP!
    When I contacted Adobe support that's all they suggested, to reinstall...

    What computer operating system?
    Uninstall, free ccleaner run through, and reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled is not a bad idea. But, let us look at some other
    factors before that.
    1. When you try to open the program, how far do you get....Welcome Screen - clicking on Organizer or Video Editor or other?
    Have you tried to open the program directly from the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file after you have applied Run As Administrator to that file?
    2. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? Are you working in a school or company network?
    3. Are you working with a pen and tablet device instead of mouse?
    4. Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the website of the manufacturer of the card?
    4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed and are you running the programs as administrator?
    Let us start here and then decide what next based on the details in your reply.
    Besides uninstall/ccleaner/reinstall, we may next try deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file or the whole 13 Folder in which it
    exists or installing the program in a newly created user account with administrative privileges and trying to run the program from there.
    But, let us rule in or out the first 4.
    Any questions or need clarification on any of the above, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

    Hi juderocks14,
    Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
    If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
    Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
    Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
    Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows  Media Player:
    Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
    More reference:
    What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?

  • HT1414 In syncing my iphone to my itunes account, it proceeds fine until step 6/6 music.  Then there is a message that I tunes software has stopped working.  This has happened multiple times.  I am on a windows 7 Dell laptop.  Thank you.

    I keep getting the same error message when syncing my iphone in itunes with my windows 7 Dell laptop: The software has stopped working and will be shut down.  Can anyone help?

    Hey preachit,
    It sounds like we are running into issues with the iTunes software connecting to your device. If possible, lets try plugging your iPhone 5 in with a different cable. Also, try plugging it in to a different USB port on your computer:
    iOS: Troubleshooting USB connection
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286
    We may need to isolate the issue down to the iPhone or the current installation of iTunes. If the above steps have not resolved your issue, remove and reinstall iTunes:

  • Why can't I open iTune Store on my PC?   When I click on the iTunes Store box, I get the message that the iTunes Store has stopped working.  This happens everytime.  What is wrong with my download?

    My PC is running Windows 7.  I have downloaded the new OS Version for iTunes onto the computer.  It all works fine from the iPod Touch, but when I click the block for the iTunes Store, I get the message that "iTunes has stopped working".  What is wrong? How can I fix it so I can purchase from the store on my PC instead of having to use the small keyboard on the iPod Touch?

    There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
    It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
    I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
    As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
    However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

    Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

    iTunes crashes when doing a power search. I get a Microsoft Visual C   Runtime Library Error message: Program C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe R6025.  Pure virtual functional call.  If I select ok, Windows 7 pops up with iTunes has stopped working and then it shuts iTunes down.  Anyone else every have this issue.  Any ideas on a fix?
    Thanks,

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I get the following message: Mozilla Firefox plugin-container has stopped working properly. What do I do?

    the message:" Mozilla Firefox plugin-container has stopped working properly" appears regularly in my maintenance center. I am on Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.17

    I had the same type of failure. It was caused by a FF upgrade from V4 to V9.1. Dearing 1955 did not say what version caused the problem. My USB ports started acting up. I could not install the Webcam that was installed before. The HP Scanner of my OJ 8500 stopped working (USB). Did get it to work via Wireless. Removing FF did not clear the problem. Believe I have infected USB driver now.

  • Sync Outlook Calendar message "Apple Outlook DAV Config has stopped working"

    Hi There,
    I've installed the Windows iCloud Control Panel tool, and I'm trying to sync some of my Outlook data to iCloud. Contacts works fine, and tasks appeared to work fine the first time, but syncing my calendar consistently fails with this message:
    "Apple Outlook DAV config has stopped working"
    My calendar is rather large, but it was larger still (over 5000 entries), so I archived some older items, but it still fails now at about 1800 items out of 2000.
    Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Trevor

    Hi Levanterman,
    Yes I tried that, and there were errors. I fixed my pst file. But then my I got a new error. Which resulted in the process actually generating an email would you believe it to Apple support staff, I presume saying:
    Help Apple improve its products by sending us diagnostic and usage information about iCloud.
    By sending this message, you agree that Apple will collect and use this information as part of its support services and to improve its products and services. This information is collected anonymously. To learn more about Apple's Privacy Policy, see http://www.apple.com/legal/privacy.
    Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.
    Error: 0x80040604: No reason set
    So you can imagine my frustration with all of this, but I agee, I think with dylanfromhuxley above, it is probably some errant specific calendar item. Unfortunately, I'm not willing to go to the trouble of "demolishing" my calendar to re-build it again, just to get the iCloud sync going ... I'l probably revert to doing good old wired syncing here, until I here confirmed reprots that that this clearly 1.0 version of the Outlook integration has matured somewhat.
    Cheers,
    Trevor.

    trying to launch photoshop cs3 on a mac running OS10.6.8 i keep getting the error message: Licensing for this product has stopped working  you cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT adminstrator or Adobe customer support for help
    I already Uninstalled and reinstalled the product and it still does not work.

    Hi,
    Try to uninstall the software again and you have to manually
    Delete the following folders:
    [Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD
    [Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
    [Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/backup
    [Startup Disk]/Library/Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/
    [Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/FLEXnet Publisher/
    Go to Applications-->Utilities-->Disk Utility, Open it and Select the MAC HD and then click on Repair permissions.
    After that try to run the cleaner tool as mentioned by kglad.
    Restart machine and then try to install again.
    *** Make sure , you only delete these folders if there is no other adobe applications installed on the machine. As if you have any other Adobe application of the suite ( not free applications ) then it will be a problem.

  • Firefox crashes with error message: "Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working"

    When I open Firefox it seems to be working fine for one minute, then everything freezes and I receive the following error message:
    "Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working
    --> Check online for a solution and close the program
    --> Close the Program"
    Neither option restores Firefox and I'm left with a frozen (white blurry Not Responding) screen. When I click on the X button, then I get the regular "Firefox is not responding" message and the whole program just shuts down.
    Should I disable all plugins and / or this plugin container? How can I do that, if Firefox keeps crashing?
    Basically, how can I fix this? Thanks a lot!

    I found the issue was with the Nik Filters I was using. The filters were messing with Photoshop's initializing. I uninstalled and reinstalled the filters and now Photoshop works like a charm.
    It appears this forum is dead?!
    Thankfully, I was able to troubleshoot on my own and figured out the problem...
