Adobe Premiere CS3 (Noob Question)

I am trying to edit some footage and i am having a very annoying problem; I cant move a sequence from the project menu into either the program screen or the sequence work area, i can however move it into the source screen. This is obviously a pain in the butt as it means i cant do anything.
Does anyone know why this is happenening, im guessing its somthing stupidly simple, that ive done wrong.
Thanks
Josh

In the Project Panel, Dbl-click on that Sequence. It will Open in the Timeline.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Adobe Premiere CS3 will not open!

    Adobe premiere CS3 will not open.  When I click on the Adobe icon on my desktop, I get this message:  This application has failed to start because prm.dll was not found.  I've tried several things such as:  uninstalling the program then reinstalliing it.  I tried to open Adobe by clicking on one of my projects by opening MY Computer from start on the taskbar, then click on c drive, etc. but it will not open.  Before I started getting the error message stated above, when I clicked on the icon, the program would load to the point of showing the top portion of the page (file, edit, etc.) then stop.  It would never fully load.  HELP!!!!!   I'm in the middle of trying to meet several deadlines.

    First, search your system for every instance of prm.dll. See if you have one (could be corrupt, but a Repair Install should have repaired it) in your PrPro CS3 folder hierarchy. Do you have any more? How do the dates and sizes compare to the one, if there is one, in PrPro? Here is a LINK to a .dll site. I do not know this site, so cannot even comment on their .dll's. I'd do the first suggestion, well - first.
    Also, I do not know this .dll. It could be a VST from an Audio editing program, or similar. Some of these have been known to bring PrPro to its knees, at launch. Might be worthwhile to check into it a bit more.
    Also, take a look at Event Viewer. This ARTICLE will give you some tips on what to look for. Could be more happening, than the error message might lead one to believe.
    Good luck,

  • Adobe premiere cs3 and youtube

    Hi Everyone,
    Please give me some input on how I can use adobe premiere cs3 to create videos for youtube.... specifically... the videos that I will be working on will contain all of the same basic elements...
    1. Still Images and Clip art only... no moving video... I want help with uploading the stills/clip art and also with timing who long each still with stay up individually....
    2. Speech bubbles (the kind used in comic strips) timed to pop in above above the heads of those people or characters in the stills and clip art... I want help with timing when the bubbles come in and with creating them and saving them so that in future videos i won't have to create them again...
    3. Voice over parts done by me to read the parts in the bubbles timed for comic effect... I want help with steps on how to do this...
    4. Music added throughout the video just below my voice overs... same as above...
    All of my videos will contain these elements... and I want to find an efficient way to set up adobe premiere the first time so that every time I go in to do my youtube videos in the future it will be just a matter of uploading the stills setting a time duration each still and the speach bubbles... reading the voice over, adding the music and then uploading it to youtube... I am new to the software and would appreciate any steps that could be give to help me accomplish these four goals...
    Thanks,
    John

    the music you liked was made by chris duncan (who comes to forums but has been busy so hasnt been around lately ).. called " when goblins frolick " ...perfect title for the music.
    probably should move this discussion to the lounge area cause it sorta has to do with learning some aspects of programs in general and certain techniques etc.. not really about cs3 and youtube per se...
    but anyway..moderators will do that if they want to...
    it is a little difficult at first to use photoshop to do what you want, and to use masks in cs3 or just fade graphics in and out and make them appear when wanted..move around etc...and also text issues ( sizes that show up OK on screen are usually pretty large ( pt ). But you'll find when you get past the initial learning part it will open up all sorts of very cool opportunity.. and freedom to do what you imagine...
    AE is also used for animation stuff but I dont use AE myself...
    if you search for animation tutorials using text baloons you may find some good one that walks you through the process...and maybe even you can find samples of things to download and experiment with on your computer.
    my advice is to go ahead and learn what you can and do your own graphics etc .. cause that will open up all kinds of cool things for you to do .. not only in animation things but other things too ...
    good luck !
    local library might have a good book on animation stuff using adobe products ( versions you have).. can usually search local libraries with computer at home...

  • Were can I download a trial for adobe premiere cs3?

    I've looked all over the internet for a trial of adobe premiere cs3, but the only thing I can find is a bunch of links leading to the adobe website which only has adobe premiere cs5 avail able, but I can download that because my computer is only 32 bit. Does anyone know a secure website were I can get it downloaded?

    Since I have never used a trial I can't help with this one
    I did see mention of a company with an archive link... could have been prodesign, but not 100% sure
    A forum search for
    cs4 trial
    or
    cs4 trial prodesign
    might give some results... but that is cs4, not cs3... so going 2 versions back may not have any results

  • Capturing HDV using Adobe Premiere CS3 - more than 20 minutes of video

    Hello,
    I'm facing a weird situation with Adobe premiere CS3, I use a canon XH-A1 video camera to capture video & recently started using adobe premiere for editing, the issue is if I start to capture HD video for more than 20 minutes, adobe is not able to capture the video (shows a red screen), but it works fine, if I capture upto 20 minutes of video.
    I have in the past had to break down a single tape into 3 halves, to successfully capture the video, this is NOT the ideal way, as I have to babysit the video capture, to limit the capture to 20 minutes & restart it.
    Has anyone faced this error? Any advice/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Kalyan.

    Could the reason be that you are capturing to an FAT32 format hard drive and it is only allowing you a limited maximum file size? Not sure but I think it is 4GB which would equate to 1/3 of a DV 13GB hour ...or about 20 minutes.
    If that is correct, and you should be able to tell because the capture window will display the file size limit as space available during capture, you could do one of two things:
    * reformat the drive as NTFS which removes the file size limitation (I have just done this on an external drive for exactly the same reason), but do look up online instructions for this and do it carefully.
    * if the material is not long continuous shots of over 20 minutes, switch on Scene Detect during capture; it's wise to cut material up into smaller chunks in any case as huge files become very unwieldy and handling them could slow your machine right down.

  • Adobe Premiere CS3 Keeps Shortening My Video Duration?!!?!?!?!!??!

    Okay, so I'm doing a school project and adobe premiere cs3 isn't letting me show my whole videos. I have about 8 Videos that is about 6 to 10 seconds long. There is one video that is 8 seconds long but it cut it short to 6.07 seconds long. There's another video which the audio is completely off and another Video that was doing perfectly fine but then soon after, it was limited to like 7 seconds from 10 seconds. This isn't cool lol. Do I need to do something to my videos to make it not do this? My project is due on this Friday :C

    (A) Make sure your Work Area Bar or your (B) In /Out Points cover what you want to export..then check which of those options to use in the Media encoder.

  • Adobe Premiere CS3- CS6

    I buy an update version of Adobe Premiere CS3->CS6. Can i install on a PC with Adobe Creative Suite CS3 ? Can i install this version on a PC without CS3 ? Thanks.

    Yes you can. You only need the serial number of CS3 during the installation process.

    I don't have any experience about that. But as fas as I have heard you can install both versions.

  • Adobe Premiere CS3 not activating

    Have a copy of Adobe Premiere CS3 which I bought years ago. Had it running on an old laptop but want to install it on a more recent one and for some reason it refuses to activate. My internet connection is fine so no idea why it is not activating.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I enter my serial number in the section reading 'I have entered my serial number and want to activate now.' Then I click next and choose to activate now using the internet. I get a green loading bar that runs for a few minutes and then just get a message saying: Activation - no connection.
    Simple as that; just several options for other types of activation (internet is only suitable one for me) as well as a note about HTTPS not working behind some firewalls and looking into proxy settings. I don't believe this to be the problem however.
    My internet is working fine but the product won't activate for some reason...

  • Capture(or import) from Sony DCR-SR75E to Adobe Premiere CS3

    Hello,
    I have an Adobe Premiere CS3 installed in my mac.
    I have used it with my Sony Fx-1 perfectly.
    I purchased an new sony dcr-sr75e handycam and have problem capturing or importing.
    When I connect the camera to the computer, I don't open capture, and when I try to import the mpg files, I only get the video of the files and I don't get the audio, and the video is imported very low quality. Can you please help me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Levent 

    Copy the files from the camera to your PC then import them into Pro. Pro only captures through firewire.
    If the audio contains ac3 copy the ad2ac3dec.dll file from Encore in Program Files and paste this in the root of Pro CS3.
    Reimport all files or start a new project.

  • Adobe Premiere CS3 keeps crashing everytime I attempt to export to Encore

    Hey folks,
    As the title suggests, everytime I try to export my project onto the Adobe Encore CS3 programme it crashes, with the message "sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your project."
    Can anyone help at all? My gut feeling tells me that I'm going to have to reinstall everything again but if there's any suggestions to do something other than this it'd be greatly appreciated!
    Cheers!

    I agree with your gut feeling, especially since all relevant details were left out. Some suggestions

  • Adobe Flash CS3 Rollover Question

    This should be a relatively simple question. I am using Adobe
    Flash CS3. I created an image in photoshop with layers and imported
    it in to flash. Basically the image I have is a map with a bunch of
    different states and my goal if when a user rolls over a state I
    want to state to display a color. As many of you know states are
    not in perfect rectangles, so when I do this click on a layer,
    convert to a symbol, then change the rollover state to the way I
    want it, the active rollover "hotspot" overlaps with other states
    because the layer outline overlaps with the other layers. Therefore
    I can not produce the ability to click or rollover neighboring
    states. Basically I need to use some type of hotspot function or
    tool to get rid of the default rectangle that revolves around the
    state.
    Please give me specific directions on how to change the layer
    shape to conform more with the actual layer rather than a rectangle
    surrounding the layer.
    Please let me know if you have any questions,
    Neil

    How to install
    When you click a link, a download of the installer file occurs to your Downloads Folder usually located next to your Trash Can or in your Users Folder.
    Open the folder and double click (or File: Open) the download and icon can appear on your desktop which you open and inside is a installer package which you double click on to launch the installer.
    OS X will check the download to make sure you intended to start it and that it's not malware it knows about.
    Follow the installer instructions to install the software onto your computer and quit when finished.
    Some require the browsers to be closed first, others require the machine to be restarted to enable the software.
    Once the install is completed, remove any and all downloads from your Download folder, it's safer to keep this folder empty so you can keep track of what appears in there.
    Drive by downloads of malware can occur and reside in the Downloads folder, mixing in with files residing there and await your click to install.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements Collage Question

    If this is the wrong place for this type of question please let me know.
    My end goal is to use Adobe Premiere Elements 8 (or 9) to create a collage of images that appear on the screen.
    What I want to happen is to have an image on the screen for a second, then spin and reduce in size to the background, only to have another image appear on the screen and repeate the process until you have a stack of images scattered across the background.
    THe method I came up with was to have several background images, the first with one picture, the next with two pictures, etc with the background changing as each image spins into place.  The problem I've run into is that I can't seem to control the spin, nor make the images get smaller as they do spin.
    Anyone have any idea of how to get this effect?

    Steve and Bill,
    Thank you for your assistance so far.  Until you had mentioned "keyframing" I had never heard of it, but after doing some research into it, that looks exactly what I need to be doing.
    Looks like it has a pretty steep learning curve, but after some trial and error (mostly struggling to understand that you had to set a keypoint at where you want the animiation to start rather than having Premiere read your mind) I'm starting to get the hang of it.
    Thank You,
    Scott

  • Problem reinstalling Adobe Premiere CS3 PRO

    Hello,

  • Problems to install Adobe premiere cs3.Help me Please

    Hi!
    I have once installed Premiere on my machine and a few days later I have uninstall it. Now I am trying to install and at the end of the initialization of the installation when it is at the end I get a message saying that there is another adobe´s installation going on at the moment and I should finish it first but there is no other installation. I have looked at the programs I have installed on my computer and there it is one instance of adobe premiere. If I click it to uninstall it doesnt do anything.
    I have try to go to regedit and delete it from /microsoft/windows/currentverion/uninstall but I still cant install it.
    What should I do ?
    thank you
    Eduardo Tavares

    There are several
    installation troubleshooting documents available, however, since installation support is free, contact Adobe directly as Harm suggests.
    Cheers
