"Adobe Premiere Elements 11 has stopped working"

Hi,
I have been having problems with getting Adobe Premiere Elements 11 to open. It was working fine for a year and then I haven't been able to get it to open. I have tried running the program as an administrator, uninstalling and reinstalling and deleting other material from my notebook but it always comes up with the same error message.
These are my computer details:
Manufacturer: Toshiba
Model: Notebook

Installed Memory (RAM): 8.00 GB (7.89 GB usable)

Why is this occurring and how do I ensure that the program runs again? Looking at other forums and posts, I see that others have been having the same problem.@

•What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
•What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
•Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
•For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
•-you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself

Do you have dual graphics adapters?
Go to the Windows Control Panel and select Hardware and Sound and then select Device Manager... In Device manager you click the + sign to the left of Display Adapters... and see if 2 are listed

Adobe Premiere Elements has stopped working

I have had APE 9 for about a year and recently bought a new computer. I re-downloaded it, using the original serial numbers and everything was fine. I loaded up a video successfully and everything seemed fine. I have a Sony HDR CX115 camera and use APE to edit the videos. The new computer runs Windows 7, the older one was XP. During the editing process, which normally takes a couple of hours, the machine crashed about 30 times and the message above was displayed. I resorted to saving everying minute or so, and eventually got the job done. Anyone any ideas? Have I got one of the settings wrong. Assume there's no problem about re-using the original software?
Thank you

Adobe Premiere Elements 13 stops working trying to add media via videos from camera

When I try to add media selecting videos from camera or flip, Adobe Premiere Elements 13 stops working and closes. What might be the problem?

elizabethmeow
On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running? Have you had the opportunity to update 13 to 13.1 using an opened projects Help Menu/Update?
What are the full properties of your source media and how are you importing them that you are trying to import into the project? A quick way to get that information, if you do not know that information, is for you to post the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded the video.
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Element 13, and are you running the program as Administrator?
Lots of additional questions, but the answers to the above may give us the answer that you need to resolve you issue.
Thank you.

PRE 7 Error: Adobe Premiere Elements.exe stopped working

Today I started getting Adobe Premiere Elements.exe has stopped working and than the program closes. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I un-installed and re-installed it and still get the same thing.

Just as a possible additional clue. I have been editing a video of 1:40 hours length for the past 5 hours. PRE7 behaved well. Then, after saving my project, I tried to apply some colour filters (Auto Levels and Colour Balance HLS). PRE7 then crashed and is now unable to open the same project (which is 1.84 mb in size WITHOUT the filters saved in it) but can open an autosave version of 1.5mb in size. As that is 1.5 hours older, it is of little help to me, though.
(Note: this after I gave up and redid this video, after PRE8 totally crashed and PRE7 couldn't reopen this project file either.)
So there seems to be an error regarding the project file size and some weird "setting" that prevents PRE7 from opening that project.
(Note 2: I have now wasted so much time with this, that it is getting beyond just annoying. Adobe should fix this ASAP or provide all users a free copy of Premiere CS4 - if that is any better, that is. As no other video editor can import PREL files, one basically starts from scratch, which is even more annoying.
Note 2b: I have gone through all the suggestions made, am not running an Nvidia graphics card and am now at a loss as to what to do to successfully reopen this project file.)
Helmar
PS: Attached in the case anyone cares, both PREL files. The large one that doesn't open, the old one that does. Happy bug hunting, Adobe! The licensing code for PRE CS4, please send to the email attached to my profile. Thank you!

Adobe Premiere CC"has stopped working error"

Ran an update on Adobe Premiere CC last night. Now this error occurs. I did a system restore to 1 hour before the update. Adobe worked fine this morning. After I closed the program and logged in tonight the "has stopped working error" displays. Also Adobe will not import and .MOV files and the .MOV files that are already on the timeline are no longer there. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

I have just had the same thing happen to me too. Everything has been working fine but today, Premiere has crashed/stopped working twice. I have managed to get back into it now, but it won't playback either the Source or Program Monitors, saying there is a 'Low-level exception in Adobe Player (Player)'.

Adobe Premiere Elements 9 Stopped Working

When I launch Adobe Premiere Elements 9 the only menu options that are available are to create a new Project or open a previous one, all other menu options are greyed out. Creating a new project has no effect. If I attempt to open a previous project I get a message saying a serious error has occurred and Premiere must close. This product had been working fine for the past two years.

Hi There,
I'm having a similar issue, having not used Premiere Elements 9 for a few months, which I'm only discovering now.
My issue seems to be only with the "Instant Movie" option.
When i select "Create/Instant Movie" The PE window opens and loads to a grey screen only.
I installed the 9.01 Update - Same.
I deleted the Prefs file - Same.
I deleted the whole 9.0 folder - Same
So i decided to do a full uninstall/reinstall and the same issue occurred. Again i tried the update, deleting the prefs file and the 9.0 file and I'm still in the same situation.
BTW i have also tried setting compatibility mode to (XP Service pack 2 and 3, Vista SP 1 and 2 and Win7)
Do you have any ideas on what might be causing this?
I'm running Windows 7 and currently running the Premiere Elements 9.01 update.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

"Adobe elements has stopped working."

I've received the error "Adobe elements has stopped working" and then the program closes. It has happened numerous times and now happens more and more often. Does anyone have any fixes for this?

I've been having the same problem.
Win7 64bit 8GB RAM, 500GB free hard drive space. All Win updates in place on a regular basis (last time was 2 days ago).
I often get the "stopped working" popup message on my desktop right after I close the program (well, yeah, I would hope it would stop working when I close it) and also increasingly get it on the desktop when I open the program (before the PE12 screen opens). This latter popup "stopped working" message will persist until I close the popup window, even though the program is working just fine.
The most occurrences of actual crashes seem to be when doing a lot of titles (new or editing existing), when saving, and when exporting.
For awhile it seemed (very subjectively) that rendering the project before saving or exporting possibly helped reduce the number of occurrences, but just now the "stopped working" message popped up and the program quit while I was rendering (got about 80% through).
This time I checked the "check online for a solution" box, but to no avail--there was a brief period while Windows searched online, and then the program shut down anyway.
I've tried rebooting, making sure other programs were closed, etc. but nothing really seems to have much effect. The same project will save or export just fine on one occasion, then if I so much as change a word in a title it will become unstable. The entire project is 26 minutes long. One video track (2) with titles, one main video track (1), one audio track (mostly empty) of ambient sound with the video, one sound track.
I will try Steve's suggestion of Ctrl-Alt-Shift for awhile on opening. (This helps when PSE tools freeze up.) Thanks for the tip!

Adobe Photoshop CS4 has Stopped Working on Windows 7

Hey guys and girls. I recently got a new computer running Windows 7 64bit. I still have good ol photoshop cs4 and wanted to use it on this new computer. The install process was completed and as I started the program, I get the "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working" box. I've looked through some forums, and a lot of them mention the wacom tablet issue, which is not the issue since I've yet to install the drivers for my tablet. Has anyone come across this problem at all? This is what shows up when I get that error box.
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\WERCA9F.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\WERE1B8.tmp.appcompat.txt

Please help, thanks in advance

The first thing that I would do is insure that you have the latest video driver installed (but do keep any older ones, just in case you must roll-back - newest is not always the best).
If that does not help, then open Even Viewer, and check for all warning, or error messages in System and Application tabs, for the time that PS crashed. If you find any with links, follow those links - be patient, as some might take a few moments to send data to MS, and then for MS to process it, to open the proper page for that link plus the data gathered. This ARTICLE goes into a bit more detail, and I do not think that it is too Adobe Premiere-centric.
Good luck,
Hunt

HELP! Adobe PS Editor has stopped working

I just installed Adobe PS Elements 7 and I immediately get the following message when trying to edit , organize photos: Adobe PS Editor has stopped working. I have tried a few things I noticed on web but nothing has worked :(

Heather,
Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the PSE Editor might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash. I recommend the following troubleshooting steps:

During app load, Premiere elements 11 stopped working all of a sudden. Why?

Premiere elements 11 stopped working all of a sudden. Says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly" I re-installed it but still the same.
I haven't installed any other apps except adobe reader and there were a few Windows updates but that was it. Some history - I had defraged my hard drive when this started to happen. Wouldn't the re-install have fixed it if the de-frag caused this problem? What is causing elements to stop loading at the splash screen?

DFMA
Thanks for the follow up with the very helpful information.
If this is one of those Importer QuickTime type issues, the answers are few if any.
If you have not already tried
Have you attempted to delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary,
the whole 11.0 Folder in which it exists.
then, please try the following...
My expectations for the following are not high, but worth the time -
1 uninstall the usual Control Panel way - you might want to uninstall QuickTime at the same time.
2. free ccleaner run through (regular and registry parts)
CCleaner - Download
3. reinstall QuickTime and then Premiere Elements with anti-virus and firewall(s) disabled.
Others on the list...
1. Create a new User Account with Administrative Privileges and install and run Premiere Elements
from there.
2. Use a new set of installation files either from Adobe if you purchased the program from it as an online
download, or get tryout installation files for 11 into which you can insert your purchased serial number.

I have checked all drivers and gedt messages they are all working correctly.

Thank you John for your help
I have a AMD Radeon HD 7570 Driver Version 13.152.0.0
I had already been to their site and run AMD Driver AutoDetect without any luck
I have been using Adobe Creative Cloud for the year since I first purchased this computer, and every programme except Premiere Pro is working OK. I had a similar problem a few months ago after I upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 and I then uninstalled Premiere Pro, and deleted the AMD Beta Drivers which I had installed from AMD Catalyst following a recommendation on the Forum, and when I reloaded Premiere Pro everything worked OK without the Beta Drivers, .and although I still received messages Premiere Pro has stopped working some times, until yesterday I had always opened Premiere Pro after a couple of tries.
I was going to uninstall Premiere Pro this morning, but following your E Mail I went back to AMD and thought I would try downloading Beta Drivers from AMD Catalyst and Premiere Pro opened first time of asking.
The joys of Computers, Lets hope it keeps working now
Thanks a lot

Adobe Bridge CC has stopped working -again

After many months of pain caused by Bridge CC not working it seemed to be cleared up in Sept '14. (I used just about every fix that was suggested incl. preferences changed to have no program load on startup, managing cache, etc.) I has been working flawlessly until today. My pc notified re: windows updates were ready to install. I cleaned my pc, closed all programs and installed 23 updates. (Win7, 64bit) Updates seemed to install cleanly but Bridge CC will not open and displays a white screen and the msg "Adobe Bridge CC has stopped working" This began immediately after the os updates were installed so I suspected that was the issue. I restored the pc to before the updates and CC will still not open (stopped) and in desperation I tried Bridge CS6. CS6 opened normally and I was able to open a folder. Touching the space bar should have opened the selected file to full screen image but instead I got the same error msg now saying Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working. I have the same programs on my laptop and CC opens and works properly. So that sounds like my pc and not Bridge is the problem but there is an incompatibility somewhere and I am stuck and my work is piling up as I speak. I need my bridge back!

This problem has been solved by Microsoft, rebuilt Win7. I would like to delete my question to reduce clutter here but I don't know how to delete it. A moderator may delete this if they wish or someone can add to my reply and instruct me. Thanks!

Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working - has issue been resolved?

Hello.
I am experiencing the above problem with a new install of CS6.
Has this issue been resolved?
CS6 Design and Web Premium installed on Win 7 pro 64 bit Dell Precision laptop. Error with Adobe Bridge cs6: "Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working", problem event name "APPCRASH". Error occurs when opening Bridge from Photoshop and other apps (Browse in Bridge) and directly from desktop or start menu. Also a cache directory is not being created under c:\user\<user>\appdata\roaming\adobe\bridge\. Holding ctrl key down and double clicking icon gets same message, cannot get at reset window.
Performed the following with no change: verified Bridge and full suite is on latest version (Bridge=5.0.2.4); created desktop icon directly from bridge.exe; verified application was installed and is starting with administrator privileges; verified latest display driver installed; performed complete uninstall of CS6, CC cleaner tool run, then full reinstall; Error under Event Viewer: faulting application: Bridge.exe and faulting module name: ntdll.dll; disabled UAC; tested memory for damage using MemTest86-good.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

A follow up to the above.
There appears to be a number of possible causes for this type of error. In my case it was somewhat specific. I had a stand alone copy on this same machine previously of Adobe Photoshop CS2 (only) which was completely uninstalled prior to the installation of CS6. There is an issue with Bridge CS6 being installed on a machine that has Bridge CS2 on it. I wasn't aware of Bridge being present with my copy of Photoshop CS2 but apparently there were at least some components of Bridge CS2 left after the uninstall. The workaround that solved the issue for me was the creation of an empty folder:
C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS2
For those of you who may have this situation.
Here is where I found the solution (sixth thread down):
Bridge CS6 won't open running on Win7
