Adobe Premiere Elements 4 Crash - Windows Vista

After approximately 14 to 16 seconds of viewing any .mod video file recorded from my JVC Everio camcorder a Windows error message appears and Adobe Premiere Elements 4 immediately crashes. Is there a patch or fix for such a problem? I have checked that my computer system meets the system requirements and I am unsure what else to do other than returning the software?
Error message in full reads:
"Adobe Premiere Elements.exe has stopped working. A problem causeed the program to stop working correctly. Windows will closs the program and notify you if a solution is available"
My new HP Pavillion (m8075a) computer system includes:
Intel Pentium D CPU 3.2GHz
3070 MB (RAM)
210 GB Free Space C:Drive
Windows Vista O/S 32-bit
RealTek HD Audio
NVIDIA GeForce 7500 Le
Samsung Monitor SyncMaster 226BW(Digital)
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Regards,
Kim

My objective is to handle MOD files from a JVC Everio Hard Drive Camcorder with Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 (PE4) as PE4 crashes after a little while when using MOD or MPG files.
Sorry Steve but I dont want to use the software that came with the JVC Everio camcorder. I bought PE4 (in euros ...) to use it. By the way MOV files used by QuickTime have nothing to do with MOD files from JVC Everio camcorder! Yes I know, it's confusing.
After some months of useless forums, reading, hardworking and frustration, I finally found a solution to the problem!! PE5 works quite well and no crashes have occurred so far....
Here it is. It's not straightforward as you have to use two different free programs but the method is simple to follow.
1. Transfer MOD video files from the JVC Everio camcorder to the PC.
2. Convert MOD files into MPEG2 files with the help of a freeware program (I used Converio)
3. Convert MPG files into DV-AVI files using Free Video Converter.
This free program is very simple to use and DV-avi files output is compatible with PE4 which is not the case with some other conversion programs.
As DV-AVI files are not compressed, they are more easily handled by video programs.
I havent been able to directly transform JVC MOD files into files fully compatible with PE4. If someone knows how to do this, please tell me.
In conclusion, I feel it is unacceptable that neither JVC nor Adobe offer the compatibility of their products. The information provided by these reputable companies is deceitful for unaware users and sometimes wrong.

  • Editing iMovie files with Adobe Premiere Elements for Windows

    Hi,
    My 12 year old asked for Final Cut Pro for Christmas to edit movies he takes on his iPod touch and iPad. However, he has a Windows-based desktop. As I understand it, Final Cut Pro is not a Windows-based program. I thought we could get him Adobe Premiere Elements for Windows, but will he be able to manipulate his iMovie files easily? I have no idea what format the iMovie files are. Will he be able to download them to his Windows desktop, edit his movie, and then upload back to his Apple devices? Thanks!

    Bottom line: Making distinction between video editor project files and formats of exports.
    Details...
    The iPod touch and iPad typically offer video files H.264.mov or H.264.mp4 formats. This is not a Mac versus Windows matter because we are talking exports (.mov and .mp4) not project files from a video editing project.
    He should be able to take his iPod or iPad device videos and edit them in Premiere Elements. And, then he should be able to return them to his device(s).
    But, many of these devices record video with a variable frame rate (depending on the lighting conditions to a great extent). Premiere Elements (any version) can have problems with such video to the extend (a) out of sync audio (b) cannot import file at all. I have a iPod Touch 4th Generation and have no Premiere Elements importing/editing/exporting problems with my 1280 x 720 @ 30 progressive frames per second (H.264.mov) video from that iPod.
    Below is an excerpt of Premiere Elements 13 exports that might be of interest...

    The ideal way would be to look at the tryout of Premiere Elements 13 before purchase. If not possible, then, if purchased from Adobe direct, there
    should be an opportunity for money back within 30 days of purchased. If purchased from an authorized reseller, then the refund/return would be according to the policy of the retailer.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the above information. If you need more information, please do not hesitate to ask. If clarification on anything that I have written is needed, please let me know.

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Windows 8.1 64 bit? For now I will assume Premiere Elements 12 in a NTSC set up.
    Your iPhone 5s video is expected to be 1080p @ 30 progressive frames per second? Do you confirm that? Because of the source of your video, it is highly likely that you are dealing with a variable frame rate.
    Please give the following a try to see if you then have an "importable" product to take into Premiere Elements presumed 12/12.1.
    Download and install the free HandBrake program.
    http://handbrake.fr/
    Import your video file into the program.
    Make sure you browse to and set Destination (suggested Desktop location)
    Go to the Video Tab and set
    Video codec = H.264 (x264)
    Frame Rate = 29.97
    put a dot next to Constant for the Frame Rate
    Click on the Start at the top left of the workspace
    Wait for the "Queue Finished" to appear in the progress bar at the bottom left of the workspace.
    Then see if this H.264.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 progressive frames per second file can be imported into Premiere Elements 12 project with a manually set project preset of NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DLSR 1080p30@ 29.97.
    Details for setting manual project preset can be found in

  • Adobe Premiere Elements crashes on export

    Hello,
    I am working on a video project in Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0. My computer is a Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Dell XPS M1530 laptop with the following hardware:
    Toshiba MK3263GSX Disk Drive
    285 GB, 149 GB used
    burst transfer rate: 3 MBps
    5400 RPM
    8 MB cache
    Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T8300
    2.40 GHz
    4.00 GB of RAM
    Whenever I try to export my project (which is less than 3 minutes long and contains no more than 2.25 GB of 720p 30fps video), the program crashes. Usually, the progress bar will go about half way before an Adobe message tells me that Premiere is running low on system memory. Not long after that, a Windows message appears telling me that "Adobe Premiere Elements has stopped working" and it crashes to the desktop. This has occured without fail perhaps 50 times in all my tries to get this to save.
    As this project has progressed and become larger and larger, it has become more and more difficult to export. At first, there were no problems. Then, I had to start restarting the program or my computer immediately before exporting. After making a few more changes and additions, I have been entirely unable to export succesfully.
    I have set my export settings at far lower levels than would be acceptable for this project, but the program still crashes. I was most recently trying to save the file as an .mpg with the NSTC Widescreen DVD settings. Trying to save in other file formats and at other settings has not been succesful.
    I do realize that this is probably a commonly asked question, so I apoligize for bringing it up again. I have searched for information on this topic and have tried several suggestions, including changing the virtual memory and cleaning up my hard drive.
    Is my computer just too weak to export this project? Would a more recent program fix my problem? Are there any techniques or suggestions I should try?
    Thank you very much for your help.

    >chose setting NTSC HDV
    According to Kodak http://store.kodak.com/store/ekconsus/en_US/pd/Zi8_Pocket_Video_Camera/productID.156585800 you are not selecting the correct setting... that camera does not use HDV

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 9-Windows 7

    I have installed Adobe Premiere Elements 9  my new Windows 7-laptop, When I start a new project, the project settings window appears but this window is "frozen" and I can´t don anything in this window or conntinue. What can be the matter?

    There are two "zoom" for the Timeline display, and the first - horizontal - can be done via the Horizontal Zoom slider, or with the + & - keys. Also, to collapse the horizontal zoom to show the full Timeline, one can press the \ (Backslash) key. The latter is very useful when one needs to adjust the WAB (Work Area Bar), if set, to encompass the entire length of the whole Timeline.
    Then, there is vertical zoom, which is accomplished by hovering the cursor over the top of a Track in the Track's Header, until the cursor turns into a "sandwich w/ two arrowheads (two parallel lines with up/down arrowheads), and then click+dragging. Finding the active point in the Track Header can be a bit of a "pixel-search," but once one finds that, it will be easier the next time, and then the next.
    Good luck, and hope that these help you zoom the Tracks, and the Timeline.

  • Installing Adobe Premiere Elements 13 on Vista

    I know it says that Premiere Elements 13 only supports Windows 7 and 8. What happens if I TRY to install the software on Vista?

    Tomqer
    Premiere Elements 13 does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Mac OSX 10.7.
    Did you attempt to install the Premiere Elements 13 tryout on your Windows Vista and got a no go message?
    ATR
    Add On...Apparently Adobe lets you download the Premiere Elements 13 tryout even if you are doing that from a
    Windows XP SP3 32 bit computer. I just tried that. With my Internet connection, it will take hours for the download
    to complete. After investing all that time, I suspect, when I go to install the program, I will get a message about Installer
    will not work.

    What computer operating system is involved? I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit for now.
    If your Premiere Elements 9 was registered when first installed, the serial number for it may be at Adobe.
    Please go to the Adobe web site http://www.adobe.com, sign in with your Adobe ID and Password, in the Search field type My Products.
    Then follow the My Products link to your products. In the Your Products list find Adobe Premiere Elements 9 and click on it to reveal the serial number.

  • How to fix audio  of a video captured from DV output of camcorder using Adobe Premiere Elements 8?

    Hello,
    I purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 8 about one week ago.  I installed it and everything seem to work well in my first project.  I am new at editing videos but I was succesful in testing it by loading an existing video file in avi format from my computer and then doing some very basic editing (I splitted 2 scenes and added a title). 
    After my first succesful project (described above) I started a brand new project. Here, I want to capture a one hour video  from the dv output of a video camera. So I connected the camera to the PC and then started adobe elements 8.  Before starting the capture I only checked the boxes that said "capture video" and "capture audio" (the other 2 boxes that said download to timeline and autoanalyze were left unchecked).  After that I started the capture process.
    After the video capture was completed, a small window opened at the bottom saying that a PEAK FILE was being generated.    After the peak file generation finished, I looked at the captured video.  The video looked perfect.  However the audio of the video was too fast. By this, I mean that the voices of the people in the movie were like they were speaking at more than twice the normal speed.  Or to explain it in a different way, they sounded like the  chipmunks.
    So now I come to the question of this thread I started.  Is there a way that I can fix the audio part of the video I captured?  I will appreciate any help on this. Below I listed a few additional details in case this is needed.
    Thanks,
    ronel_8
    PS.  Here are some more details about my system:
    1) Operating System: Windows XP
    2) I am capturing the video on an external drive with 40 GB of available space. The external drive is connected to a PC via a USB connection.
    3) Computer CPU: 2.4 GHZ
    4) Computer RAM: 1.25 GB
    5) Video tape is about one hour long.

    Hello Bill and Steve,
    Your responses are very helpful.  Although I was not able to fix the problem yet I do seem to think from what you both say that my system may be too slow to capture the one hour video. In any case I will copy below more details about the system as you requested:
    1) Results from running Gspot:
    The audio section of the Gspot window was blank. That is, no information was there.  The File and Container sections say:
    File Size: 12.6 GB
    Note: 7.63 GB unneeded bytes at the end of the file
    DV Type1 AVI
    2) I did run the Gspot on another good avi file (captured to the PC with same camcorder) and says:
    Codec PCM Audio
    32kHz 1024 kb/s tot (2 chnls).
    I suppose these are the audio settings from the camera.
    3) Yes, I am capturing video from a miniDV camcorder (JVC GR-D70U).
    4) I did not defragment the external drive prior to capturing the video with the audi problem.  So I will give that I try and see if it solves the problem.
    5) The external drive I am using is formatted to NTFS.
    6) The computer is a Dell Dimension 2400, CPU: 2.4 GHZ, RAM: 1.25 GB
    7) HDD Size=74GB and 11 GB of free space.  But I am downloading video to external drive that has 60 GB free space.
    One last piece of information that may be useful.  If I open the AVI file (that I captured with Adobe Premiere Elements) with Windows Media Player, the audi sounds good.  However if I open it with Adobe it has the problem I mentioned in my previous e-mail.
    I'll aprreciate any further hints.
    Thanks again,
    ronel_8

You can download both programs simultaneously if you have a fast connection, other wise I would recommend installing Photoshop Elements first. Then download Premiere Elements 64 bit. Finally update the content fpor |premier Elements and you are good to go.
     

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0 - programme closes everytime I open my project within 5 seconds - HELP

    Please can somebody help with the above.
    The programme closes with no error message or anything, every time I open the project I am working on.
    Thanks

    ellaf
    How long have you been working with Premiere Elements 8.0 successfully? Are you a newcomer to the program?
    I will start with the usual questions and then we can fine tune next.
    1. Are you working with the 8.0.1 version of the program? If not, then download and install the 8.0.1 update.
    Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0.1 update
    2. Do you have the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalyzer features disabled. If not, please do so.
    For Background Rendering, see Premiere Elements Editor Edit Menu/Preferences/General and the Background Rendering preference
    there. For AutoAnalzyer, go to the Elements Organizer workspace, Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalzyer Options and disable all those
    options.
    3. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    4. Does this problem occur only when you are opening a saved closed project and trying to continue working on the project? Does
    the problem occur even if you open a new project? Can the problem happen even before you import media into the project?
    Let us start here and then decide what next which might include questions about the properties of your source media, project settings,
    computer resources and other as applicable.
    Please review and consider.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.
