Can't view/monitor copy-pasted video prem elements 7

Hi folks
Wierd one this.  We've got Premiere elements 7 in college on some awfully slow computers (2GHz dual core cpu with 1GB ram).
Sometimes, when a student has copied some video and pasted it on another track/later in the session, they'll try and play it but it won't show in the monitor.
The screen goes black, but you can hear the audio.  However, when you double click the video itself, it will open in that  window you use for fine tuning a cut, and you can see it playing ok.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Bob

1GB RAM is nowhere near enough to run PRE7 comfortably (I'm quite surprised that it works at all). Other likely problems are inadequate free disk space and out of date drivers.
Work through these basics to see if it cures your problems.
Install all Windows Updates.
Install latest version of Apple QuickTime (v7.6.9 at time of writing). Even if you don't use QuickTime, PRE relies heavily on it.
Install most recent graphics and sound drivers from the manufacturers web sites.
Install PRE7 v7.0.3 update.
Delete BadDrivers.txt (in Windows 7 this is likely at C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Premiere Elements\9.0\BadDrivers.txt)
Run Disk Cleanup.Run Defragmenter.
Reboot your PC.
Temporarily disable any anti-virus realtime scanning.
And give us some information about your clips and hardware:
Use the GSpot Codec Information Utility to analyse the file and post screen image.
What project preset did you use?
Where did the clip come from?
How did you get it into PRE?
Post back here with the necessary information described here: Got a Problem? How to Get Started

I can still view them in my Videos which is not in orderly manner or arragement like i wanted unlike in the Playlist. There is some sort of restrictions i guess. I already checked the Allow All Movies but still the videos does'nt appear. What should I do?
    Please HELP ME.
    Thank you very much.

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

  • HT201302 copy/pasted videos have quicktime logo icons instead of a picture.. please help!

    I manually copy/pasted my pictures and videos from my iphone into my computer. No problem coping, however videos copied into my computer as icons with quicktime face on them. I can't tell which videos is what! How can I change the face of the icons from quicktime logo to initial pictures of the videos? I thought this may be hapenning because I don't have a MAC, but when I view my videos via iphone icon in the computer, face of the videos are all there and normal. So, I guess the issue is not the type of the computer.

    OK, this seems the closest thread to what's going on here. I've got a late-2008 Macbook Pro, 10.5.8. Icons on the desktop and in finder windows are showing generic icons instead of the application-specific ones. Funny thing is, if I do a relaunch of the Finder (option-click/hold Finder icon in dock to bring up the menu), the specific icons will show up, but after a second or two will switch back to the generic ones. ??

  • Since updating can no longer use copy/paste for copying internet material into my Word documents

    There was a recent update on Fox which I automatically downloaded. Now when I attempt to copy select material or articles I find online the usual copy/paste functions no longer work when I try to copy into already established or new Word documents

    I have the same problem.
    All of a sudden, I can't drag or cut&paste anything from the Character Viewer into my word documents.
    I think it changed when I upgraded to Mavericks.
    I get the circle with the line through it when I try.
    I hope that someone reads this and has pity!
    thanks

  • Copy paste video edit to another drive

    In windows I was able to just copy-paste to another drive to temp save it..How is it dome in Mac
    ..I have it on 1 500gb and ant to send it to a 750gb..
    will the video be intact and can I access it from my software from either drive?
    Thanks for any help

    in addition to dragging you can copy/paste in exactly the same way as in windows. select the video file in finder and enter command+C. then go to the directory where you want to paste it to and enter command+V.

  • Copy & paste video

    Hi, is there an easy way to grab a slice of video and copy/paste it to another video track without moving the original? I am used to easily doing this in logic by holding the apple key and dragging a part, but when I do this in FCP it behaves very strangely and sometimes it doesn't copy, and other times it inserts space into the timeline...
    to try to work around this, I tried to apple-c copy the video clip, and then select the video track I wanted to copy to-- and then paste.. But for some reason, it still pastes it on the previous track.
    How can I avoid this?
    Thank you.
    -patrick

    It's that dang track selector. Paste goes on the track above the highest track that has the selector thingie on. Or some dang thing like that. It takes some getting used to.

  • Can not view mobile me gallery videos on IPHONE

    Can any body tell me why i can not view my mobile me gallery videos on my Iphone? When i bring up my gallery on my phone it only shows some of my posted video not all of them and the time has 0:00. If you try and play it you get an error message.

    When you send an email announcement for others to view a MM gallery, you can Bcc yourself with the message - to your MM address.
    If you store all sent messages on the server, you can access the sent message in your MM account's Sent mailbox. This will provide you the link to your MM gallery, which you can bookmark for later use or create a web clip which will be placed on your iPhone's Home screen for faster access.

  • How can I view just music - not videos - in the libary and playlists?

    I've noticed that when creating smart playlists and viewing the libarary I cannot filter out videos... is there a way to do this without having to just uncheck the videos and pretend they aren't there or is this something that apple didn't think of?
    I want to create smart playlists to listen to in my car and want to back up my library on dvd-roms, that is where this becomes a problem. If anyone knows how to change the settings so that videos don't show up in certain playlists or on the libarary I would appreciate it a lot.

    How can I view my full billing history for the app and music stores without iTunes installed?
    No.
    If my account has been compromised
    If you even think this may have happened, immediately change your password.

  • Getting rid of Multiple Spaces in Code View (after Copying/Pasting)

    Hello,
    I'm trying to find a way to get rid of multiple spaces between words in Dreamweaver CS3's code view.
    Oftentimes, when I copy/paste text from elsewhere (e-mail, website, etc), the Dreamweaver code shows up with multiple spaces. Normally, that wouldn't be problem -- except that my blog's auto-tag plug-in doesn't detect selected phrases when there are multiple spaces between words, e.g., it'll detect "Swiss Alps" in a post but not "Swiss  Alps" (notice the extra space between words in the second phrase).
    If at all possible, I'd like to be able to keep Dreamweaver's text formatting option when I copy and paste, as that means I don't need to manually put words in bold/italics.So, is there a way to keep that option while getting rid of all the extra spacing between words?
    By the way, I'm familiar with Wordpress CSS, but not with Dreamweaver CSS. Not sure if there's any difference.
    Any assistance would be much appreciated.

    I make it a point to never paste formatted text into HTML pages.  Formatted text from MS Office usually contains a variety of junk you don't want and I don't have that much faith in MS Word code removal tools.
    Bold and Italics from Word or Outlook should be changed to current HTML tags of <strong> for bold and <em> or emphasis for italics anyway.  Also see Logical Tags here:
    http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/logical.html
    Find and replace is good for removing whitespace if you know how to do it correctly. Make backup copies just in case things go wrong.  http://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/whitespace.asp

  • I would like to download a production desciption into my website like I have before, but it says I can't use the copy/paster method anymore. Why?

    I have a website - www.pawsitivepamperings.com, and I have been adding products for the last 6 months. I have been using the copy/paste method from my drop shipper. Since the end of last week, it hasn't been working. It has totally stopped my progress! I need help in using this function again - as soon as possible. Can you help me?

    I right click, and Copy from an HTML description from my drop shipper. Then I go to my website and right click to Paste.
    One of two things happens. (1) if it does copy, the text prints over the image; OR (2) I get a message that Firefox does not apply a Cut/Copy/Paste.
    The wording at the bottom of the description box says: Path: table> tbody> tr> td> p> font.
    I was told by my webmaster to eliminate the following but I don't see it on my products page: <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="100%>.
    When I have been on a 'live chat' with my support team, a couple of them have overridden the issue and I could precede, but I go to the next product to add, the whole process starts again and I cannot proceed.
    Does this make sense?

  • Can no longer cut/copy/paste and drag items with my mouse

    I can no longer cut/copy and paste items. I've tried restarting and loading all updates, but that didnt help. I can also no longer drag items using my mouse. This includes in programs and on my desktop. Any ideas?

    Many months ago I had a problem with my mouse on my iMac G5. Basically, I just wasn't able do much with my mouse anymore, sorta like you. It was terrible, having a mouse but not being able to do much with it.
    Is your problem the same one I have? Don't know, but it sure sounds familiar. I did manage to fix the problem by accident, because I'm not really sure what I did to fix it, but I wrote down the incident what I was doing when it was corrected. I stored it away just in case it ever happened again.
    I don't even remember what forum I was on when I wrote this, but here's what I wrote and maybe it will help, hopefully:
    *Ok everybody, I finally got proper behavior, it's just too bad I'm not sure of the procedure.*
    *"When I go to bed I usually run the mouse pointer to the upper left corner to activate the screensaver. Of course it didn't work. But I also knew that clicking a button causes the mouse to be sensed, so I was pushing some of the buttons while in the corner to see if I could get the screensaver going.*
    *Well, after doing this, everything is back to normal operation again. So, I fixed it totally by accident. Makes me wonder if there's some features that are turned on and off somehow by doing whatever it was I did up in that corner."*

  • I can't seem to copy & paste while I am using Firefox; but I can with Internet Explorer. What am I doing wrong? I guess I just don't understand how to do it.

    I am working in Ancestry.com. If I am in Internet Explorer, I can copy a picture & then paste it in my pictures, on my computer. If I am using Firefox, I don't understand which things to do to copy & then paste a picture, like I can in Internet Explorer. I prefer to use Firefox, but need to be able to use this copy & paste feature, often. I just downloaded Firefox, & started using it, again, yesterday. I just got a new computer in June.

    When you run out of keyboard short cuts, enter the addtional names in the name field in the keyword editor. That will start a new Keyword Collection. You can apply the addtional keywords to multiple cllips on the event browser. Or you can drag the clips into the Collection in the Event Library.

  • HT4009 How can I view all my past in-app purchases on my account?

    I want to view all my past in-app purchases that were made on my account and cannot find a single place that allows me to view this information. Please help

    You can only view your entire purchase history via your computer's iTunes (that will show your full history, you can't filter it by type of purchase) : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
    You can see a cut-down version of your purchases (the last 90 days) and filter by purchase type (I haven't made any in-app purchases but I assume that they will show as a tab on the screen) via http://reportaproblem.apple.com (that page also allows you to optionally contact iTunes Support if you have a problem with a purchase).
