Adobe premiere elements 13 can not open avi on my Mac. What can I do?

I just bought adobe premiere elements 13. I hoped that it would help to open an avi on my brand new Mac, which iMovie of course did not open. (That's why I spend the money on premiere!) I got the file from a disc, and I don't know what kind of camera took the pictures. Premiere 13 should open AVI's. What is wrong?

franks
Premiere Elements 13 Mac should be an .avi import only. But, avi is just a file extension (container/wrapper format), which wraps the video and audio compressions of the file.
Although the program might support a particular video compression and a particular file extension (container/wrapper format), it may not support the combination of a particular combination of video compression with file extension for a file.
What are the properties (video compression et al) of your video file with the file extension of .avi?

  • Adobe Premiere Elements does not open after installation

    Hello,
    I have written before last week. I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 and Adobe Premiere Elements 11.
    I had a trial version of Photoshop Elements 11 and with the code I could access the full version.
    However Premiere Elements did not open after installation. I did not had a trial version so I first downloaded the full program. I went through the whole installation process and everything seemed ok, no error messages. But when I tried to open Adobe Premiere Elements after restarting the computer it did not open at all. Nothing happened.
    I have de-installed and re-installed the program for a couple of times over and over again but with not result. Also tried to download the trial version first and also this didn't work. I checked my Quicktime and updated to the latest version.
    I use a Windows laptop: Asus Intel Core i5-2430M, 2,4 GHz
    I hope you can help me out!
    Thanks!
    Inge

    Yes I saw it but PSE (refers to Photo Shop Elements??) and I have trouble with Premiere Elements..(so the video program)

    I am not sure what to do here also the link at your reply "working with your operation system tools" didn't work..(got the "broken link error")
    thanks

    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Have you updated 12 to 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update? If not, please do so.
    For your immediate issue, have you update the Online Services in preferences?
    Where are you in the program when you get the message "Not possible to initialize on-line services".
    Are you in a country outside of the USA?
    There certain online services that are just not available outside the USA.
    Please review and consider and then, based on your details, we will consider what next.
    Thank you.

  • Adobe premiere elements 9 not editing

    This is my second attempt to post (my last one a little while ago didn't appear).
    I have bought the above package mainly to edit some club videos.  It is driving me mad.
    I have a Sony Viao
    Vista Home Premium
    Service pack 2
    Intel Core DUO CPU
    2.00 GB Ram
    32-bit
    I have imported a video from my comcorder to the PC via ION EZ Converter.  The video is stored as a .mpg file.
    When I open up organiser the thumbnail is there.
    The first time I opened organiser I somehow managed to drag the video to the left side of the screen and got a timeline but when I started it up I got sound but no picture.  However, now when I open up organiser and go into EDIT, aand try to drag across I get automatically sent into video effects and can't go back!
    I was told that the problem may be due to incorrect codecs and I have downloaded K-LITE MEGA Codec but that doesn't seem to have helped.
    Before I did this I also got a message in elements
    "we have detected an incompatible display driver. To get a better and faster playback performance please update your display driver.
    Display driver details: NVIDIA Corporation - GeForce 8400M G7/PCI/SSE2 2.1.1"

    Really frustrated

    Hi, Graham WT. Sorry you're having trouble. You know, Premiere Elements has its own forum, and the video mavens mostly hang out there:

    You'll probably get more help with this if you post over there, where more people are working with video. Good luck!

  • 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,

    There is no download available for version 3 that I am aware of - version 9 is the oldest available offered by Adobe.  Serial numbers are only valid for the version they were purchased for.

    HI,
    I have the same problem trying to imports clips from my new Camileo h30 (set in HD720 30FP).
    In my case, it's possible to import the clips, but after scene detection, in the film preview window, the film is displayed with big white horizontal lines,
    The video is set in HD 720 as soon as the studio project.
    It look like an interlace problem?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

  • When I export my number file in Excel, I can not open the spreadsheet : Invalid Reference, what's wrong ?

    When I export my number file in Excel, I can not open the spreadsheet : Invalid Reference, what's wrong ?

    "Invalid reference" usually means there is a cell reference in a formula to a cell that does not exist in the document.
    In this case, it could mean that your Numbers document uses a feature that is not supported by MS Excel, and because of that, the document cannot be translated into an Excel file.
    A more specific answer would require a more detailed description of your Numbers document.

    I have ipad with IOS 7,  Some apps doesn' t work, safari not open some web site. What can I do?

    Try this and see if it helps.
    Settings>Safari>Clear cookies and data.
    Now close Safari completely. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then "swipe up" or "drag up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
