Cant save project

Adobe Premiere Elemets 8 for windows vista 32 bit with 4 gb of RAM  I have been trying to save my project in varuious formats like windows Media HD 1080i 30 and MPEG H.264 1920x1080i 30 and it only saves a buit of the movie, its laggy, the audio isnt good and it always says : export error unknown error error compiling movie. I Tried to cut it into different parts with the workarea only but that didnt work either... PLEASE HELP

What kind of camcorder is your original video coming from? When you set up your project, which project settings did you select? Matching your project settings to your source video is vital to efficient performance.
If you are only outputting a segment of your video project, make sure that the Work Area Bar (the light gray bar along the top of your timeline) is over your entire project. To ensure this, press the \ key (above the Enter key) to display your entire project and then double-click on the Work Area Bar. It should automatically extend to cover your entire project.
As for outputs, how well a hi-def output plays depends on the speed of your computer. A hi-def Windows Media file almost always plays like crap on all but the fastest computers. But you should be able to output a standard definition WMV Windows Media file to test your video. (I know you want to see it in hi-def, but until you get the bugs worked out, you should test it in standard def.)
Beyond that, we'd need to know more specifics about your computer, including how fast the processor is and how much RAM you have.
Version 8 was probably the poorest performing of any version of Premiere Elements. (Though make sure you go to Help/Check for Updates to ensure you have the patch. It will help tremendously.) But, on a good quad core computer, you should still be able to work with hi-def fairly effortlessly.

    Cant save project as a picture or PNG help!!!!
    i edited a wallpaper den when i try to save as a PNG the save botton is greyed out so i cant save .
    i just bought the app pease any help thanks.

    In addition to greule's helpful post, I have posted several screenshots to illustrate this process.
    1. As you can see below, Tap the Share button, then Save to Camera Roll (you can also select upload to creative cloud, or share, etc). For this demonstration, I have selected the "Save to Camera Roll".
    2. The Save to Camera Roll dialog will appear, prompting you to select the photo or photos you would like to save. Select your photo(s).
    3. Once photo(s) are selected, select the file type you would like to save. In this case, PNG.
    4. When done, Tap OK.
    I hope this helped you, please post back with any questions. In addition there is a helpful tutorial on how to save for Facebook, or Photoshop.

  • Cant save project in iMovie...

    I save the project in iMovie then close the file. When I reopen the project files have been placed in the trash resulting in my havine to re-add the video clips and still pictures - re-adjust the audio used in the slide show.
    Again I save the project before closing out.
    Is there a step im missing???

    Hello, buddyhat,
    Welcome to the discussions.
    As per Sue's post above, are you sure your external drive is Mac formatted?
    You can recover your iMovie's last save, so don't save again or iMovie will save as it is now, with all the clips in its trash, and you will not be able to recover the last save. Follow the directions given by Karl Petersen in this thread:

  • Cant save or save as or export in motion 3!!!

    this ***** I cant save or save as or export in motion 3!!! what is the deal anyone know how to fix this problem???

    WOW!! Thanks so much, I've been banging my head against the wall for several days now thinking, was it something I did, reinstalling like five times, getting chewed at by my supervisor because the project wasn't completed, etc.... and all along it was Shapeshifter. I was about to call it quits and do the project in after effects, but thanks to your post I can still streamline the motion graphics portion of the project with FCP and Motion. Thanks again, you really saved me!!

  • Cant save my comp, error (3 :: 166). Please help!

    Hi,
    I cant save my comp, when I hit save I get this error: after effects error: deleting file "nameoffile.aep" (5). (3 :: 166)
    Any help would be appretiated, thanks in advance :-)

    Are you trying to save your file locally or over a network? If a network, is your connection to the network good?
    Is the directory/folder to which you're trying to save write-protected? Do you have sufficient rights to save the file at the given destination?
    If you try saving the project to your desktop, does it work?

  • BUG in PE 13- cannot open and save projects from PE11!!!!!!!

    For 1 month I'm requesting a TECH Support to resolve a BUG in Adobe Premiere Elements 13 that cannot load and save projects from PE11. I already provided all details several times (about my PC system & exact steps to reproduce a problem, etc) & posted in this PE forum as well.
    Adobe is the WORST company I have ever came across that shows NO SUPPORT for its clients. Not only they don't have a phone line, but lacking in providing its clients with other channels to contact Tech Support (if such exists??) via emails or a chat. It is unheard of that a company would SELL its products, collected money & then had NO responsibility to correct problems they introduced. SHAME on you! I will post this opinion in Facebook and everywhere. I will warn people they should beware on spending money on Adobe horrible products where a company refuses even support these products and where a company only relies  on common users who also already spent money and now experiencing all sort of problems. Unbelievable!
    Adobe team, if you are not helping with resolving your last bugs, you should at least send me a link for the old PE11 that I could finish my projects. I hope that someone will finally contact me

  • My iphone 4 will not back up when it syncs. A comment comes up stating it cant save back up to my computer?

    My iphone 4 will not back up when it syncs. A comment comes up stating it cant save back up to my computer? I have enough space on my hard drive, I have the new version of itunes and iphone software, and have tried restarting my computer several times. I ran apple diagnostics which found no issues! I'm not sure how to resolve this issue, please help me.

    I kept getting this last week. Really annoying. I found this solution:
    Remove (delete) ALL photos and videos from your iphone. Reboot it. Connect to your pc again.
    This worked for me, however I've since taken some more pics and it doesn't sync again, so I'm not sure what permanent solution there is, although I've read lots of technical ones by googling it.

  • How do I save project in IMovie 3.0.3

    I am tearing my hair out. I can't load footage into the Mac with IMovie 4.0.1, and I can't save project in the Mac with IMovie 3.0.3. I work for an hour (or now for a minute) and CAN'T save the project. What am I doing wrong??? Thanks. I can save project with 4.0.1, but I can't load footage into it, and it isn't as easy as you would think to schlep the hard drive around. Marcia

    What's the error message?
    You must save to a Mac-formatted drive, not a PC-formatted drive.

  • CS6 Freezing on Save Project

    When I try to save a project in CS6, Premiere displays the Save Project dialogue and freezes completely.  The progress bar does not begin to move.  If I click cancel, I get the beach ball.  The only way to get out is to Force Quit.  Also, if I let that it remain in the frozen state for more than a few minutes, it grinds my entire system to a halt with hard drive read/writes and eventually system memory errors (which I've never seen before).  I have 8 gigs of RAM and few things running.  It also bizarrely knocked out my system sound, which has not returned after a restart.  The volume speaker icon is now grayed out (different from muted) with no fix that I can find.  The sound thing could be a coincidence, but that seems unlikely.
    The project I've been playing with was started in CS5.5.  It's a simple project, just a demo reel that I figured would be a good thing to use to test out CS6.  It has one AE comp, but nothing crazy.  So I opened it in CS6.  It converted, and I saved it to a new location.  I made a few adjustments and saved it again without a problem.  The auto save was also working.
    I opened another project from 5.5, also no problems, although I didn't really make any changes.
    When I opened the first project again, everything seemed fine until an auto save which froze as described.
    I Forced Quit and reopened the project.  As soon as I hit save I got the same freeze.  I figured some kind of corruption had set into that project file.  So I started over with the original CS5.5 project file again.  I was able to save it, this time with incremental file names, and make the same changes.
    After a quit and relaunch, I opened the project and again couldn't save.  That was the case for every one of my incremental saves. I've now gone through this cycle a lot trying to figure it out.  The only project I can open and save is the original CS5.5 project file, but if I make any changes and then close the project and come back to it, the freeze on save happens every time.
    I'm not particularly concerned about the reel project, but the other project I'm working on is a client piece that I started in 5.5. I'm pretty terrified this will happen to that project as well.  I'll soon find out as I need to move forward with it.
    I'm psyched about CS6.  I like what I've seen briefly, but this is obviously disastrous.
    Various error messages have also popped up.  Here they are:
    Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
    [/Volumes/BuildDisk/builds/mightykilt/PremierePro/UIFramework/Make/Mac/../../Src/Workspace .cpp-209]
    Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
    [/Volumes/BuildDisk/builds/mightykilt/PremierePro/UIFramework/Make/Mac/../../Src/Applicati on.cpp-3118]
    Adobe Premiere Pro
    Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project.
    Anyone else experiencing this?  I'm running Mac OS 10.7.4.

    I tried everything to fix the muted audio.  This is what worked,  You have to run the script every time you restart your computer.  Save it to your dock for easy access.
    1. Open Utility.
    2. Open Applescript Editor.
    3. Copy the following and paste it at the top half of the editor (copy everything below with the quotes in place):
    do shell script "launchctl stop com.apple.audio.coreaudiod" password "your_password" with administrator privileges
    4. Replace "your_password" with your login password. For example if your login password is ILOVEMYSON2011 then it should look like this...
    do shell script "launchctl stop com.apple.audio.coreaudiod" password "ILOVEMYSON2011" with administrator privileges
    5. Now go to File ---> Save As (in the Applescript Editor on the Menu Bar)
    After "Save As" choose a name for the file. I called mine "AudioFix"
    Under "File Format" choose "Application."
    Save it to your Applications (or wherever you like) and drag it to your dock.
    Run it whenever you restart your computer. If your problem is the same as mine, the volume indicator will pop on within a few seconds or up to a half a minute after you run the script.
    Good luck!

  • Cant save as AI but can as PDF

    Using PC Windows XP Service Pack 3; CS5 Illustrator 15.1.0, 2gb Ram, 50gb Free HD space.
    Opening an AI file sent from Japan, not sure of its PC or MAC (is there a way to find out).
    All fonts are as outlines, images embedded.
    After making a few simple changes (to the artboard, and turning off a layer with crops on) we find we then cant save the AI file, error along the lines of 'saving encountered a problem' we can replicate and post that error if needs be.
    We are also trying to place a .PSD file whilst the original is in AI format, but we get memory errors, our Memory and available HD space all check out OK in Windows Task Manager as OK.
    The workaround has been to save as a PDF, checking the 'Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities' in the Options dialogue - the file then saves and allows us to then work away as normal, saving at the end.
    I also want to know if an 'Illustrator editable' PDF, with JPEG compression turned on for Images, do the images degrade (ie are read in, sampled and JPEG compressed) each time a PDF is opened and resaved.

    1)Run the action called "Delete Unused Items"
    2) Selct all, copy and paste into a new document
    3) save as with PDF compatible off
    Whether the image degrades depends on the settings of the PDF. Obviously if you go form high to low quality, they will degrade. Even if you save with the same compression level the image degrades.That amount is very small at max quality and you won't even notice the difference. Do for example 50 saves at low quality and you will notice a difference in images between original and final. The amount depends on resolution and type of image also play into the amount of loss (Hairlines - vs- fields of color, edges). A soft cloudy sky for exampel does not degrades as much as a shot of the golden gate bridge.

  • Cant save form PDF

    I dont know if this is going to be a bit of a broad question, but we have some LiveCycle v8.0 developed forms which are distributed out to various people for completetion and sign-off. We have encountered an issue with one form that some people can and cant save. There seems to be no reasoning as some have the same version of Adobe Pro v8.0 on a variety of systems, be it Windows 2K or Vista. They are not able to save whether they have signed it or not. Those users also have managed to save other forms. Where is a starting point for me to look at what may be missing either in the form itself or their machines?
    Appreciate any advice.
    Stephanie.

    Yes you can turn on capability in Reader by Reader Extending it. There are two ways to Reader Extend your file. You can extend the file using LiveCycle Reader Extensions (this has the full set of extensions available) or you can use Acrobat which has a small subset of Reader Extensions (Local save and digitla signatures only).

  • Cant save down from CS4 to CS3

    I'm having issues with my Illustrator CS4. It's recently stopped saving files down to CS3. Says "Can't Save File" when I try to save it down to CS3.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    I will find those things out as I am not the user. Only IT Support. Was just wondering if anyone
    else has had this issue and could share there solution.
    Another user can save down the same file to the same location without any issues. Don't know if this helps at all.
    Quad Core machine running XP Pro. PDF compatibility enabled. Have not tried reinstallation. Cant save to network or computer.
