Adobe premier element disk pile up

It seems like som working files i premier element gets left on the c disk even after deleting projekts. I can´t find those files on my c disk and I dont know what file ending they have.
Need help.

Have you followed our advice and created a new folder whenever you create a new project? If so, all of these files will be saved in that folder and removing them, once you're finished with your project is as simple as deleting the folder.
Otherwise, you'll need to manually delete these files. They're locating the following folders, in the same directory where you saved your project file:
Adobe Premiere Elements Auto-Save
Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files
Encoded Files
Stop Motion Capture
If you're interested, I've got many more tips and tricks for working more efficiently (and saving you a lot of time and trouble) in my books.

Adobe Premier Elements 7- crash-when burning says" Please insert a blank disk" and already a disk in

I have a Adobe Premier Elements 7. I have had a lot of problems with it of crashing and not burning.. I just had my computer wiped out and installed everything back on like windows xp service pack 3..etc. First I have Windows XP service pack 3 with an Intel Core 2CPU ,6400 @213GHz, 2.13 GHz, 1.98 GB of RAM. When I went into disk menus premier elements 7 crashes... why is that??? also I tried to burn a DVD and does the progress of burniing and almost done burning WHILE there is a dvd in the drive and says"Please insert a blank disk and click ok to burning" why doe sit do that also? I just had adobe reinstalled and my computer wiped out? Please respond and help.. I am using this program as a business of video editing and nee this solved.

Along with Steve's questions, let's talk about the process of Burning a DVD-Video.
From PrE, which is doing the authoring of the DVD-Video, the first thing that happens is a quick check of the Project and the Menu Set chosen. This happens in an instant. Next, the program must Transcode the Timeline to MPEG-2 that is fully DVD-compliant. This takes some time and is a very intensive process, stressing the computer, and also heating things up greatly. This process will often cause a poorly ventilated, or poorly cooled computer to crash with either a reboot, or a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death). Every component, save for the video card, will be stressed like few other programs can do. PrE uses a 2-pass Transcode, where it goes through the entire Timeline, and maps out sections with high motion, or great detail. It builds a "script" on how to proceed, and then goes back at the Timeline with that script, but also still looking for ways to improve things. This is about 90% of the entire Burn Disc process. Nothing has yet to be burned. Instead, files are created in the Scratch Disk folders. Now, the program takes those newly created MPEG-2 files, the Menus, and all navigation such as Markers, and assembles them into another working folder, in the full DVD structure of VIDEO_TS folder with the IFO, BUP and VOB's. When this is done, the actual physical Burn starts. This is quite a ways into the total process. It is at this point, that the program looks at the burner and the blank media, and not before.
When the program cannot get the necessary info from the burner, or the blank media, it will throw an error message, similar to yours. Also, "SenseCode Errors" usually indicate a problem with the burner, or the media.
Now, let's address this last bit. Is the firmware for your burner up to date? If not, update/flash the firmware. This will be available from your burner mfgr's. Web site. Next, what brand of blank media are you using? Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden are the most recommended brands. Memorex, TDK, newer Ritek and all store brands should be avoided at all costs. Last, is your burner a fully-certified multi-drive? If so, it should be able to handle +R, or -R media. What type are you using, and are you sure that this is blank media, and not a disc that you have already burned, or even attempted to burn?
Hope that we can stop the crashes, and get you to burning.
Good luck,
Hunt

Upgrade to Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 plus Adobe Premier Elements 2.0

I currently have Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0
I would like to purchase the Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 plus Adobe Premier Elements 2.0. for more photo and video options.
I'm offered one of two options. Either buy the Full Version or the Upgraded version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 plus Adobe Premier elements 2.0.
I don't want to lose any of my videos or photos in my Adobe Photoshop Album Starter editon 3.0.
Will the Upgrade over the Full Version be sufficient?
Thanks,

The upgrade only applies if you already have a paid-for version of these programs. You cannot "upgrade" SE.
> I don't want to lose any of my videos or photos in my Adobe Photoshop Album Starter editon 3.0
That isn't an issue. Your pictures aren't "in" PSA SE, it is just cataloging what's on your disk. In any case, the catalog will be usable by PSE 4 Organizer, so all your tags etc. will be preserved.

Install Adobe Premier Elements 9 results in Windows Installer window pop up

Installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 fine. When installing Adobe Premier Elements 9, the installation fails during 'Configuring Windows Installer' and a pop up window appears with the title 'Windows Installer'. What do I need to do to get this software installed?

You need at least 30GB (or better, 60GB) free defragmented space for PRE9 to work. Do you have this? You may have been on the borderline during install and your first project, so when you rendered your project, or restarted the machine, (possibly Windows creating a system restore point) your free space dropped below the limit.
Can you also confirm that you didn't install any new software between the saving and opening of your project.
Here are some general points you should work through to maximise your chances of success
Install all Windows Updates.
Install latest version of Apple QuickTime (v7.6.8 at time of writing). Even if you don't use QuickTime, PRE relies heavily on it.
Install most recent graphics and sound drivers from the manufacturers web sites.
Run Disk Cleanup.
Run Defragmenter.
Temporarily disable any anti-virus realtime scanning.
And give us some information about your clip and hardware:
Use the GSpot Codec Information Utility to analyse the file and post screen image.
What project preset did you use?
Where did the clip come from?
How did you get it into PRE?
Post back here with the necessary information described here: Got a Problem? How to Get Started

new project help
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements running on?
Have you gone through the typical drills of
1. Latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements?
2. Running program from User Account with Administrative Privileges as well as from Run As Administrator applied to the desktop icon
with right click of the icon, followed by selecting Run As Administrator?
3. Does problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
4. Even though the Premiere Elements 12 Editor will not open, can you open the Elements Organizer 12?
If Yes to all of the above, please review the following for a possible solution...
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Premiere Elements 12 Editor Will Not Open
Please review and consider the above and then we can decide what next which might include trying to open
the program directly from the .exe files. (If Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit, Local Disk C\Program Files\Adobe\

ADOBE PREMIER ELEMENTS 7 Starts OK but Crashes during Editing

This program lets me open and import up to 30 small Video clips ,while editing it's about this stage that it displays the following warning box :- ADOBE PREMIER ELEMENTS IS RUNNING LOW ON SYSTEM MEMORY. PLEASE SAVE YOUR PROJECT & PROCEED WITH CAUTIION........OK (button).
My computer is a HP ELITE PAVILION with 4 gb. of system memory , I have taken it for granted that this should be adequate for this type of program.... is this correct or there something else wrong ??
The program case has a note that it is for Win.XP or Vista & I am using Win.7 is it posible that it might nead a patch to make it better ??
I would appreciate if someone could ASAP be of a help to me....All the best....Bill Ellis

Hi Bill
Open the program and click Edit >>Preferences >>Scratch Disks
This should show the amount of spare memory for performing tasks.
If low you could add more disk space e.g. an external hard drive rather than main memory.
In general the software pre-dates Windows 7 but if it will run on Vista it should perform satisfactorily on W7.
If you need any more advice I would recommend going directly to the video forum.

Adobe Premier Elements 11

Using Adobe Premier Elements 11 I experience "freezing" when I:
add some info to a picture while making a DVD, save the program then access the button to continue scanning the photos for the next spot in which to add more info. Not always, but often if freezes the program. Norton tells me I'm using 4,095 MB of memory and I have 8 GB in the Dell Inspiron desktop. Sometimes the program quits when I've asked to, "Wait for program." Any help?
I have noted that my installation shows two instances of (Adobe Premier Elements 11 and Adobe Premier Elements) as having been installed at the same time. One is 96 Kb large and the other is 1077 Kb large. Is this normal?

Yes, Normal.
Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe (95.9 KB) opens first
and
Adobe Premiere Elements.exe (1.05 MB aka 1075 KB) opens second
Two processes of Premiere Elements 11. They are found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit

Adobe Premiere Elements 11
and in the Premiere Elements 11 Folder are these two .exe files.
When you install the program, the desktop icon for the program targets the Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe to open to the Welcome Screen. You can bypass the Welcome Screen by creating a desktop icon for the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe and using the latter to open Premiere Elements each time so that you do not run into the Welcome Screen.
Alternately, you can set the Welcome Screen "On Start Always Launch" = Video Editor.

Although we are glad that you believe you have found your answer to the issue presented, I would ask
a. What are the formats and pixel dimensions of the photos being imported in Premiere Elements project?
b. Not sure what that " ...continue scanning the photos for the next spot to add more info" is all about. Are you going into the Elements Organizer 11 which comes with Premiere Elements 11 and using File Menu/Get Photos and Videos/From Scanner? If so, where do you scan the photos to? How are you importing them into Premiere Elements 11 Expert workspace - Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets and to Timeline or something else?
Besides photo formats, pixel dimensions, and computer resources, your workflow sequence of events (maybe some multitasking) may be involved in this freezing (other than you are too fast for the program).
Please review and consider.
Thanks.

Add On...From what you wrote, I am guessing that you are working on Premiere Elements 11 running on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. If so, that would put you in a better computer resource position than otherwise. Also, watch out for antivirus interference.

How to download Adobe Premier Elements 10.0 and Adobe Photoshop Essentials 10.0

Two years ago or thereabouts I purchased Adobe Photoshop Essentials 10.0 ande Adobe Premier Elements 10.0. I lost the disk. I want to download the programs from the internet. I have my serial numbers.

I'm not exactly sure what 'Essentials' is, but you can get Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10 from https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html in the 'Downloads for older versions' section.

Adobe Premier Elements 12 on i7 4500U Turbo

I'm considering acquiring a Sony Vaio Flip 15.
Hoping to get "the best of both worlds". Wanted mobility of laptop, with added feature of a converable (to tablet mode), while still having enough power to support my video editing using Adobe Premier Elements.
The System Configuration of the Sony Vaio Flip 15 I am considering:
4th gen Intel Core i7 4500U (1.8Ghz / 3.0Ghz with Turbo Boost)
Windows 8 PRO 64bit
15.5 Full HD IPS TRILLUMINOUS Display for mobile (1920 x 1080) Touch Screen
NVIDIA GeForce GT 735M w/ Optimus (2GB) hybrid graphics
256GB (256GB x 1) solid state drive (I also have 1TB of NAS - 2TB mirrored) that I use to store my media)
16GB (8GB x2) DDR3L-1600Mhz
Specs for Premier Elements System Requirements indicate a 2GHz processor of faster.
My questions:
Will the overdrive capabilities of the i7 4500U (1.8GHz / 3.0GHz with Turbo) support Elements needs - and I don't just mean "install"?
I've seen post regarding Elements support for NVIDIA drivers. I specifically looked for an NVIDIA card figuring Elements would perform better on and non-integrated video card. Will I have issues with the NVIDIA card?
Any enlightening responses would be greatly appreciated.

Bill and Steve,
Thank you for your replies.
Latest update:
I've abandoned the idea of including my requirement for a Convertable/Tablet. Given the processor requirements suggested by Steve and Bill's suggestion of a second storage drive, I began to reseach Gaming Laptops. I found two within my price range that seemed to have the cababilities that would support my video editing needs.
The Alienware 14:
4th gen Intel Core i7-4700MQ (8MB Cache, 2.8 Ghz / 3.8 Ghz with Turbo Boost) PaasMark = 9321
Windows 8 PRO 64bit
14" WLED FHD (1920 x 1080) Anti-Glare Display
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M with 2GB GDDR5
256GB mSATA Boot + 750GB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s
16GB Dual Channel DDR3L at 1600Mhz
The Toshiba Qosmio X70-ABT3G22:
4th gen Intel Core i7-4900MQ (6MB Cache, 2.2 Ghz / 3.2 Ghz with Turbo Boost) PaasMark = 7936
Windows 8 PRO 64bit
17.3" FHD TruBrite LED Backlit Display (1920 x 1080)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M with NVIDIA Optimus Technology 3GB GDDR5
500GB HDD (7200rpm, Serial-ATA)
256GB mSATA solid state drive (SSD)
500GB HDD (7200rpm, Serial-ATA) [2nd Hard Disk Drive]
16GB DDR3L 1600Mhz SDRAM (8GB + 8GB) - Expandable to 32GB
I do use my 2TB Western Digital My World Bood Edition II as NAS for backup of my household PC, as well as primary archived storage of my media (video, photo and music). This NAS is actually mirrored (1TB each) and 4 years old, I am considering purchasing at least one 2TB WD External Hardrive for "offsite" backup - though I'm also evaluating alternative archive and "safe" backup implementations.

I am planning on purchasing Premier Elements 13, would it be better if I bought a new program rather than download an upgrade, just in case the upgrade doesn't load properly due to the error with my existing program?
If I the deleted Premier Elements 9 on my PC would I lose all my existing videos that were produced using Premier Elements 9 or would they be saved so that they can still be worked on in Premier Elements 13?
Does Premier Elements 13 work with Windows 7?
Thanks
Terry

Premiere Elements 13 absolutely works with Windows 7!
In fact, I'd highly recommend you download the free trial and give it a test run.
Meantime, go to Windows Update and make sure you have all of the latest Windows updates, including those that don't install automatically. Then go to the nVidia or ATI site and ensure you have the latest driver for your graphics card, and go to Apple.com and ensure you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements.

Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premier Elements to shut down.

I have Adobe Premier Elements 7. When I launch the application then try to begin using it an error is presented which advises Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premier Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project. When I click OK the program shuts down. I have tried fixes I have found on the Forum. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the program.

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.

I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution. When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom. How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels? I have read other forums on burning HD DVD's but I do not see the option to turn the 8 pi into 40 pi the one forum recommended. I want my DVD to be HD so I may sell these videos online for my business. I can't sell them the low quality they are burning now. Hopefully you can help me. Thanks.

Thank you for your reply.
You cannot burn your high resolution video that you can view on your computer to an AVCHD on DVD disc
that will replay through a regular DVD player. But players are marketed under a variety of names with
different support opportunities. One manufacturer may call its product MultiMedia Player, media player, Blu-ray player,
etc.The bottom line is the specifications for each of the players that are candidates for the playback of
the AVCHD format on DVD disc or the format of interest.
If you upload your HD (1920 x 1080) video to YouTube, YouTube converts the video to flash format, but it goes up as the HD video.
But, beware. Look at the YouTube viewing setting when your uploaded video is playing back. The YouTube default is not
HD. It might be 360p, 480p. If you have a 1080p video, then before the YouTube playback, you should be looking
at the video with the YouTube 1080p HD setting for best viewing. That is a YouTube matter.
Best results depend on you
a. setting up the Premiere Elements project preset to match the properties of the source media. That means, if
you have 1080p source, you (manually) or the project (automatically) set the project preset at
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR [email protected]
or the PAL counterpart, depending on your region need.
b. if you upload your video to YouTube using the Premiere Elements feature, there is a HD preset, but you cannot
customize it.....if you need customization, then you can export your Timeline to a file...in this example
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or PAL counterpart
and then customize the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset. In increase quality, you might look to increase
the Bitrate under Advanced Button/Video Tab settings - without compromising the file size.
Then you would upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
All of the above are factors that need looking into in order to determine the why for what you wrote
I have published a shortened advertisement video to YouTube- say 5 minutes-
and it is low quality
Often SD video upscaled to HD can present poorly. But, you are dealing with a HD workflow so that should not be introduced into the matter. The setup of the project and
the properties of the source video are important, but let us start with the above and rule in or out those considerations first.
Thank you. As always, any clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.

Vere Clarke
Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and Premiere Elements 13 are standalone products.
So, you can have both on the same computer, but only open one for your work.
The classical recommendation is to finish a project in the version in which it was created since there
is no guarantee that a project from an earlier version will open in the later version. Probably will, but
no guarantees. And, when you do explore this, do it from a copy of the earlier version project. Once you
take the earlier version project into a later version one, you cannot go back to edit the later version edited
project in the earlier version program.
If you have both versions (9 and 13) on the same computer and you have not moved, deleted, renamed any of the version 9's files/folders,
right click the saved closed Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project file, select Open With, and then Adobe Premiere Elements 13.
(Your 9.0/9.0.1 saved closed project file should be found in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0.)
Please review and consider. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Thank you.

Adobe Premier Elements 10 has stopped working error message/Audio issues

I'm working on a project for about a week. I almost finished it, "shared" it to my computer, and watched it thru windows media player. I thought of something else that I could add to the audio, so I went back into the project in PE10 and put small (2-3 seconds) audio clips on audio track 3. Once I did that, PE 10 would not allow me to put any audio effects on that track. (I went into some older longer projects that I have and it allowed me to put effects on any audio track).
So, I moved my short audio clips to the Narration and Soundtrack tracks. It finally highlighted the App;y button for the audio effects. Now, the problem is that I can't play or click onthe timeline or move the timeline indicator without PE10 closing out of my video. As soon as I try to do anything, it says "Adobe Premier Elements 10 has stopped working" and it closes the program.
I can open my other projects and everything seems to work fine on those and it doesn't close out, but it won't allow me to do anything in this particular project.
Again, I have been going into and out of the project for a week and all of the sudden it won't let me work on it. It's only about a 3 minute project, so I don't know why it would have trouble.
Oh, and it also un-rendered everything.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
