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:

Adobe Premiere Elements 12 start up problem.

I just purchased and installed Adobe Premiere Elements 12. I have a new pc with windows 8.1. Premiere required that I run the program as an administrator (???). So I ran it as administrator and it starts up, but then immediately closes itself.

Thanks for the update on the issue details.
Bottom line: I am suspecting an Open With directive problem.
Details.....
Please excuse the questions, but I do not want to take anything for granted
Checking the Creation of a New Project
a. If you double click the desktop icon of Premiere Elements 12.1, does the program open to the Welcome Screen?
In the Welcome Screen can you then select Video Editor followed by New Project to open a new project?
b. Can you open the program and a new project by double clicking on the Adobe Premiere Elements 12.exe or Adobe Premiere Elements.exe found
Local Disk C
Program Files
Adobe
12
and in the 12 Folder are these two files. The Adobe Premiere Elements 12.exe should open to the Welcome Screen and the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe opens bypassing the Welcome Screen.
Checking the Opening of a Saved/Closed Project
Now for your workaround...You right click a video file on the hard drive and select Open With and have the opportunity to select specifically Premiere Elements 12. It works. You have a new project, edited, and you save/close it. But, it is the re-opening of that saved/closed project.prel file that I suspect as being at the core of the problem.
so I double clicked the project file I had been working on and it said 'The project is not compatible with current version of Premiere Elements' (even though I had only just saved it from that version).
Where is this project.prel file that you are double clicking to re-open your saved/closed project? And, how do you get to it? What is its hard drive save location - Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/12.0? If so, what happens if you right click the project prel there and select Open With, followed by Premiere Elements 12?
Please review and consider.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

Adobe premiere elements and roaming profiles problem

We bought Adobe premiere elements 12 for use in our school lab environment and after lots of struggle I now see that it doesn't support roaming profiles. Is there a fix for this or have we wasted lots of money.
Is there a way to change the default save location during deployment?

I know that it have to be installed on the c: drive. But my question is if there are any way to change the default save location during deployment. Because Premiere will be installed on c:\program files\adobe\ adobe premiere elements 12\ but the default scratch disks and project location will be automatically tried to save to their roaming profiles the first time and causing the problem.
Remember this is in a lab environment and new users will log on all the time and therefore get the error messages failures.
Again, my question is:
Is there a way to change the default start location during DEPLOYMENT (we use Configuration manager 2012) so that it will always start on for example c:\localmedia instead of their documents or appdata folders which are inside their roaming profile.

Adobe Premiere Elements 8 Template download problem

Everytime I try to download the Adobe Premiere Elements 8 templates on the (setup.exe) it says it's going to remove it. Is that what it's supposed to do?

This ARTICLE by Neale, in Tips & Tricks, might be useful. He also has a link to the Adobe KB Installation Instructions, that might be useful.
Down that thread, one user was having issues, in that they had only downloaded the 7z (archived file, like a ZIP), but not the little "installer" file.
I have never installed from a download, so am not up on exactly what needs to be done, but I think that Neale covered it pretty well. If not adequately for you, I hope that he stops by this thread with some additional info.
Good luck,

Adobe Premiere Elements 10. Is it sensible to upgrade my memory to 32 Gb?

I have the following configuration (bought in September 2011).
Asus P8Z68 DELUXE, Z68 chipset
Intel Core i7 2600K 3.4 Ghz 8Mb
Kingston
Crucial SSD M4 128 Gb
Asus GeForce GTX560 Ti DirectCU II TOP 1GB 2xDVI
WD 2Tb sata 600 (black edition).
Windows 7 prof 64 bit.
Adobe Premiere Elements 10 + Photoshop Elements 10
On the 128 Gb SSD I installed, Windows 7, office 2010, Adobe elements software and the SSD is used for temp/swap-drive for Adobe elements and Windows 7.
The second drive WD SATA 600 black 2 Tb is used for all my video and photo material.
When searching on the internet and on this forum I understand that till Premiere Elements 9 Adobe didn’t use the RAM memory above 3 Gb because of the 32 bit adobe-kernel of the elements series.
Can and will Premiere Elements 10 (or higher) use the memory above 3 Gb?
When I install 32 Gb (4x8 Gb) of DRAM Memory the recommended windows swap file will be around (2x32 =) 64 Gb. With windows 7, and some software installed there will be not much space left on the SSD drive for the adobe premiere elements temp-drive. I probably have to set the temp-drive to the WD 2 TB sata 600 because there is more free space left.
I'm not sure if it is sensible to upgrade my memory.
1 Is it sensible to upgrade my memory to 32 Gb? And will it likely increase the rendering-speed of premiere elements 10 (or a future release premiere elements)?
2 Is it sensible to upgrade my memory to 16 Gb (4x 4Gb)?
3 The 32 Gb memory-upgrade costs around 300 euro/dollar. Is there a better way to improve the rendering speed (I’m not comfortable with overclocking the system)?
Hope you can help me out with this question.
Thanx!

What RAM is currently installed?
What kind of video are you processing - Standard Def. High Def. Full HD ?
What kind of durations do your project have?
Generalising, based on what others have posted, 8GB seems to be the minimum recommendation and 16GB should be excellent - if you can get 2 x 8GB you have the option for another two later.
You might want to consider a second hard disk for your temp files.

Since Vista I don't think that generalisation is any longer relevant. It was much more appropriate to XP and when machine RAM was still measured in MB rather than GB. With 16GB or more real RAM there shouldn't be that much need for swapping to disk anyway.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 running on? Can we assume that this audio plays back OK
on the same computer when you are using a computer player independent of Premiere Elements?
What are the properties of these clips that worked before but do not know with regard to sound
For now, I will assume that you are working on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
Have you checked the Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings? Do you have any 3rd party audio devices incorporated in your computer environment?
Please delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if that does not work, then the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. The Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit path is

Did you go through the drill
a. video card driver version up to date according to the manufacturer of the video card
b. if so, deletion of the BadDrivers.txt file....for Premiere Elements 12 in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit, the path is:
Local Disk C
Program Data
Adobe
Premiere Elements
and in the Premiere Elements Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file for version 12. The BadDrivers.txt file is a file in this Premiere Elements Folder which also contains folders. You do not want anything in those folders. All you want is the BadDrivers.txt file in the Premiere Elements Folder.
Make sure that you have Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so you can see that complete path.
The rationale for the being of the BadDrivers.txt file has its origins in post 10 of the following older thread
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3177024
When you get the display card error message, is it before you import media into the project? And, when you get the message, does the program allow you to continue by pressing a Continue Button or are you stopped from going further?

Que se passe-t-il?

Thank you for the reply.
From what you have written so far, I am understanding you are having a problem opening the program. It is not clear whether you are saying opening the program or opening a project.
Let us proceed with the program not opening (launching).
a. You say that you have latest driver for the HD Graphics 4600. Please make sure that the drive update information is from the web site of the manufacturer of the card, not just from Device Manager/Display Adapters/your card and the Driver Tab. If the card is up to date, then try to delete the BadDrivers.txt file. If you are using Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer, then the BadDrivers.txt file is found
Local Disk C
Program Data
Adobe
Premiere Elements
and in the Premiere Elements Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete. The Premiere Elements Folder contains folders as well as the BadDrivers.txt file. You want only the BadDrivers.txt file within the Premiere Elements Folder and not anything in the folders in that same Premiere Elements Folder. A new BadDrivers.txt file will be generated when you open a Premiere Elements project and the problem hopefully will be gone. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path cited.
b. Be sure to be working Run As Administrator and from a User Account with Administrative Privileges.
c. What antivirus program does your computer use? Please determine if the program exists with and without the antivirus program disabled.
d. Be sure to have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer.
e. If the above has not solved the problem, then let us delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file. The path in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit is
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
12.0
and, in the 12.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work then you delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which it exists.
f. Do the uninstall, ccleaner run through, reinstall with antivirus and firewalls turned off.

-What model of camcordder is your video coming from and what format and resolution is it?
I tried to add a video with the two devices.
Samsung HMX-H300
Video settings added to the project:
Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 1280x720 50fps 12009kbps [V:
HMX-H300 [eng] (h264 main L4.1, yuv420p, 1280x720, 12009 kb / s)]

HMX-H300 [eng] (aac, 48000 Hz, stereo, 127 kb / s)]
Used settings:

The same thing happens and another video.

Used settings:
DSLR-480p-DSLR 640x480p50
the same result.
-How did you get the video from this camcorder to your computer?
Files are copied to the flash card to the HDD.
-Have you ensured that a video clip from this camcorder is the first clip on your timeline so that the program can match its project settings to your video specs?
Yes. Video clip from this camcorder is the first clip in the timeline.
Parameters of the project and the video above.
-When your project settings match your video specs, you will NOT see a yellow orange line along the top of the timeline, above your video clips, in Expert mode. Is this the case with your project?
No. I suspect that the problem occurs in the video is displayed on the timeline.
Because the assets of the project and put the video thumbnail is displayed on this video.
at the time of the drop on the timeline displays only rectangular frame that meets the duration of the video itself. let go of the mouse button. Displays only the blue rectangle.
Thumbnails of the first and last frames do not appear. takes 2-3 seconds and Pr closed.
I believe that until you see the yellow line is not reached.
-Have you ensured that any photos you use are sized to no larger than 2000x1500 pixels in size?
Yes, size is not more than 2000x1500
- You're using a somewhat antiquated 32-bit operating system that can make limited use of your RAM load (which may explain why you only have 3 gigs of RAM), so you'll need to optimize your workflow by matching project settings to your video as closely as possible in order for the program to work effectively and stably.
yes, you're right. need to upgrade to 64bit. so I put 4GB of RAM, but I can not install 64bit Vindovs. no time. and available only 3.25 GB.
I would add, I hope it will help isolate the problem.
I've been tracking work in process monitor Pr. the very moment when it closes when you move the video on the timeline.
begins after the closing lines
Registry

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\ContentAnalysisData.dll

How do I update Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and Adobe Premiere Elements 9 on a new computer?

I have previously used both Adobe Photoshop elements 9 and Adobe Premiere elements 9 on my old computer with Windows XP operating system without problems. Now I have a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit operating system. I have installed both programs but when I try to update them I get a message saying "The update server is not responding. The server might be offline temporarily or the internet or firewall setting may be incorrect. Please try again later." I have tried numerous times with the same result. I have tried uninstalling both programs and re-installing but still get the same message. What do I have to do to be able to update these programs so I can get on and use them? The information with the programs says they both work on both Windows XP and 7.
