Adobe Premiere Elements 13, "No disk in drive E:"

Just installed Adobe Premiere Elements 13, every time I open it I get an error dialog box that states: "No disk in drive E:" If I click to retry or continue 3-4 times it goes away. Comes back every time I close. Have done full uninstall and reinstall.

Thanks for the follow up.
You are right. The No Disk error issue of Premiere Elements 13 was not addressed in the 13.1 Update. Have you see the thread that
I started here on the 13.1 Update details and what has and has not been fixed (from users' perspective)?
Premiere Elements 13.1 In Depth Look
For Premiere Elements, Expert workspace Help Menu/Adobe Premiere Elements and the pop up should display the version
number at the top.
For Elements Organizer, Help Menu/About Elements Organizer.
If you go to Premiere Elements, Expert workspace Help Menu/Updates, do you get a message that the program is up to date?
Please let us know if you have questions or need clarification on this.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 13 Adobe Premiere Elements.exe-no disk (window) There is no disk in drive. Please insert a disk into drive\Device\Harddisk\DR3.

I just updated to Photoshop & Premiere Elements 13, by downloading the 64-bit Windows version from the Adobe website. Windows keeps popping-up (multiple times) "Adobe Premiere Elements.exe-no disk" window. Circle X - comment "There is no disk in drive. Please insert a disk into drive\Device\Harddisk\DR3. After 6 to 18 times (choses cancel, try again, continue). The window finally goes away. How do I get rid of this problem?

I chose Adobe Elements 11's preferences to be installed into the Adobe Premiere Elements 13
program. It was an options , when setting up the Version 13 program.
Was there something extraordinary about your Adobe Premiere Elements 11 preferences?
It is interesting situation...maybe a coincidence, but 11 was typically hit with No Disc message, and
most of the time the problem was related to SmartSound which was discontinued in versions 12 and 13.
If no extraordinary reason for this preferences transfer which I have not run into...

Have you installed Premiere Elements 13 to the default location on Local Disc C?

Please help! I have used PE9 for several months. I tried to open PE9 and I get an error message in a dialog box titled: Adobe Premiere Elements.exe - No Disk. "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk1\DR3."
I try clicking on cancel, Try Again, Continue, but the dialog box continues to show after hundreds of clicks. I cannot use my PE9 at all.

Removeable drives do cause problems when the program tries to find files
That is why I always copy all video files to my data drive before starting a project, so the files stay in one place
My 3 hard drives are configured as...
1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
2 - 320Gig data for Win7 swap file and video project files
3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (*)
(*) for 4 drives, drive 3 all source files & drive 4 all output files
Search Microsoft to find out how to redirect your Windows swap file

What you describe is a known issue with Premiere Elements 13/13.1.
Adobe has given us the fix which appears to be deletion of the OldFilm.AEX file.
Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
Local Disk C

and in the NewBlue Folder is the OldFilm.AEX file that you delete or disable by renaming the file from OldFilm.AEX to OldFilm.AEXOLD.
Please let us know if it works for you as it has for others.

Adobe Premiere Elements.exe - no disk

I purchased a copy of Premiere Elements 11 in April, I installed it on my laptop and it worked fine. I just purchased a new dell desktop with windows 8, I uninstalled it on my laptop and installed it on the new desktop. When I tried to create a quick movie I recieved and error that reads "Adobe Premiere Elements.exe - no disk, There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive D:"
I contacted Adobe Support, after everything was said and done. I was told that the dll files on my install disk were corrupt and that I needed to upgrade to a new version for the mire sum of $150.00. Has anyone else run into this ?

This error seems to be related to SmartSound. Have you ensured that Smartsound and Sonic Fire Pro are properly installed?
You can download them directly from this page. Just download the free trial of Sonic Fire and you should be all set.
http://www.smartsound.com/sonicfire/downloads/
You'll also of course want to make sure that Windows 8 is fully updated and that you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements.

I have downloaded Adobe Photoshop digitally but when i activated adobe I keep getting this error message Adobe Premiere Elements.exe - NO DISK. There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive/device/harddisk/dr1

It sounds like you downloaded the wrong application, namely Adobe Premiere Elements.
If you meant Adobe Photoshop Elements, you're in the wrong forum. This is not the Elements forum.
Here's the link to the forum you want:

I down loaded Premiere Elements. When I start the program a box pops up saying Adobe Premiere Elements.Exe- No Disk . Please insert disk into the drive

Can anyone help me with this issue?

Thanks for the reply.
The uninstall and reinstall has been known to be successful in some cases, but I would not do that with using a free ccleaner run
through between the uninstall and reinstall.
The full suggested scenario would be
1. Uninstall the program using the usual Control Panel way.
2. Do a free ccleaner run through to get rid of leftovers from incomplete installs/reinstalls.
CCleaner - Download
3. Reinstall the program with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
Also, before starting the above, go to the Task Manager/Processes and determine that there are no Premiere Elements 13 or Elements Organizer 13 processes open. If found, do End Process for each found.
Depending on the results for the above, we might then try deletion of the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs File for 13 and, if necessary, the whole 13 Folder in which that Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists.
We will be watching for your results.

if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-10-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
and activate with your serial.
if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps. the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

Adobe Premiere Elements 11 file saving

I have installed Adobe Premiere Elements 11 onto my C drive.
When I edit video files I know they are large so that is why I save them to my D drive that is very large.
Even though I save my video files and finished files to my D drive Files are still being saved as well to my C drive. IT IS EATING UP ALL MY SPACE ON MY C DRIVE AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO

Major Paul,
Welcome to the forum.
I agree with Steve 100%. Much of what you are likely seeing on your C:\ are the Scratch Disks for Premiere, which are "working files." One has the option of where to locate those, in Edit>Preferences, and if you take Steve's advice of creating your Projects on your D:\ to begin with, then I would adjust the destination of all of the Scratch Disks to "Same as Project," and they will then reside on D:\, below the Project's folder in the hierarchy.
Also, there is a recent thread on Scratch Disks (though the discussion does include Photoshop's Scratch Disks, which are different) here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1156141?tstart=0
As Steve also suggests, keeping one's C:\ as clean, as is possible is a very good thing, and I could not agree more.
Good luck,
Hunt

How to install content cd for Adobe Premiere Elements 10?

I am unable to install the content cd for Adobe Premiere Elements 10. Please help.

I removed the programs from my computer and reinstalled them. I installed
both Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 10 from disk
1. Then I installed all of the content folders from disk 4 (content).
When I open the Premiere Elements Program a dialogue box asked if I wanted
to add content, I checked yes and an internet site opened and I was able to
download the content.
There must have been something wrong with my original installation of the
program as this didn't happen before.
Thank you so much for your assistance and your kind patience.

Adobe Premiere Elements 12. Scratch disks are write protected or unavailable' Help

Adobe Premiere Elements 12. Scratch disks are write protected or unavailable' Help

Thank you for your help....
I'm Mac based with iMac that is about 3 months old, 8GB ram and 1 TB disk. OS 10.9 Maverick. I have a Lacie Thunderbolt 3TB as my main disk and a 4TB Lacie for back up...
a. When I create a New document I select where I want the scratch disc to be directed, I add the content and make edits, save the file and then render it. The rendering goes all fine to where I have directed it. As long as I do NOT quit the project or close the project I can create Blu-ray, DVD's, .mov files and all.
BUTTTTT if i quit and reopen that file I get these two alerts first alerts says "The scratch disks are write protected or unavailable." the second comes up whe I go to render "Invalid Scratch Disk path for video previews. Please change it to some other location."
I can not do anything because it can not render or can not write to disks so I can not make DVD's or data files. Could it be OS 10.9?.
FYI I have redirected my scratch to the internal Mac drive and same problem.
See enclosed attachements.
That is where I'm at. Is it a global thing on my internal, exteranal HD's, OS 10.9 or what.
Any ideas?

Adobe Premiere Elements 9 Driver Update Problem

I have had Adobe Premiere Elements 9 for almost a year now, and I had just made a movie with my friends. When I go to launch Premiere Elements it says "Incompatible display driver, please update your display driver. I am on a Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop. (I know, it is not a great computer for video editing, but it is what I am stuck with.) I have tried to delete the BadDrivers.txt file and it is still no use. I have also reinstalled my drivers (there were no updates after 2008) I have been able to use Premiere Elements perfectly until today. I don't know what is going on, so somebody please help me.
Thanks,
Eric

That machine is pretty underpowered for PRE, as you acknowledged, so it could just be that your current project is too large or more complex than your previous successful projects. The maximum memory is only 2GB and that is barely enough to start PRE on top of Windows itself.
But, encouraged by the fact you have had successful projects, I'd first look at how much defragmented disk space you have. Really you should be looking for at least 40GB free and defragged. That your machine supports only a maximum 100GB drive strongly suggests to me that you just don't have enough available.
For general disk space cleaning take a look here: Re: Clean, Lean & Mean Editing Machine - One Workflow. Check out the rest of that discussion - lots of good advice on optimizing a PC.
For PRE specific cleaning I suggest you remove all cache files through Edit> Preferences> Media> Clean.
Also look to your past complete projects. Consider using the Project Archiver to archive off completed projects to an external hard drive, and then delete the Adobe working folders for those projects (much easier if you have managed each project through a project specific folder). You can also manually check for the working file folders by looking for their folder names:

How to change \Adobe\Premiere Elements\12.0\Encoded Files location to another drive?

Hello. I am using Premiere Elements 12. I am not able to burn blueray disk because I have insufficient disk space. I am using SSD drive so I need to move Adobe\Premiere Elements\12.0\Encoded Files location to another drive. How can I do this?

tolppa
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 running on? For now, assuming Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit....
In the Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Expert workspace, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disc and set the location for the category
named Disc Encoding.
Please let us know if that works for you.
Thank you.
