Combining projects in premiere elements 13

I have created 2 short projects in the software on a Mac.  Each project is saved separately.  How can I combine them into one longer project?

For importing media into the project, in the Expert or Export area, you go to Add Media and select the appropriate choice for your situation.
For exporting your Timeline content, in the Expert or Export area, you go the area designated Publish+Share/ and make your choices and subchoices.
What do you want to do? If you post some details of your source and how you would like to export it (to file saved to the hard drive or to disc), I

  • Can't find offline media for a saved project.  Premiere Element 13.  I'm just a novice

    I'm just a novice. I've tried to open an older project and it states that media is off line.  I haven't be able to get it back in order to burn another copy of the project.

    Are you trying to open a project file from an older version of Premiere Elements in Premiere Elements 13?
    Or, have you done a project in Premiere Elements 13, saved closed it, and now reopen it to find a lot of colorful displays
    and "Where is the file _____?" messages?
    Major question...forget about the project for the moment...if you go to the computer hard drive, can you spot the files
    that the project is telling you are missing?
    After any of these project files were saved closed, did you move, delete, or rename files and folders that went into the project?
    Let us start here, and then we can decide what next and then go into a lot more details to get your project's source
    media reconnect to the project.
    Never hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarification.
    Thank you.

  • Import a Premiere CS3 Project into Premiere Elements 7.

    Is it possible (or NOT) import a Premiere CS3 Project into Premiere Elements 7?
    Thanks a lot for any help.

    It is only possible to open some PrE Projects into the right version of PrPro, but will not work the other way around. The error message that you will get is "This Project was created in Adobe PrPro and you need to open it in that program."
    Even going the PrE to PrPro route is filled with potholes. I can open some PrE 4 Projects in PrPro 2.0, but not all - depends on what was done. Later versions of PrE will not open in PrPro 2.0, but some have opened in CS3 and CS4, though much can keep one from being able to do that.
    Sorry for the bad news,

    It has been the case that you cannot open a Premiere Elements project file (.prel) created in a later version in an earlier version.
    And, you cannot open a Premiere Elements Windows project file in Premiere Elements Mac and vice versa.

    Can you tell us all about your computer, and especially your computer's graphics card/chip? What is its make/model? What is the version and date of the installed video driver? When PSE runs, but PrE does not, it is usually an issue with the video driver being obsolete. Good luck, Hunt

  • Editing Premiere cs4 project with premiere elements 9?

    Can I open a premiere cs4 project with premiere elements 9 to edit it.
    Thanks in advance

    You are most welcome, though it's probably not the answer that you wanted.
    There are just so very many differences between the two programs. As a test recently, I took a PREL from PrE 8, IIRC, and it would not even open in my PrPro 2.0, like my simple PrE 4 Projects would. That PrE 8 test Project was also simple, with no Themes, or Instant Movies - just Cuts and some common Transitions, no Effects. Just too different to Open.
    Good luck,

    Can I open a premiere cs4 project with premiere elements 9 to edit it.

    I'm going to throw out a somewhat educated guess and say no.  Despite the similar monikers, Premiere Elements and Premiere Pro are two different programs.

  • CREATING "MASTER" PROJECT WITH PREMIERE ELEMENTS (PRE)

    I am creating a new thread following up on earlier questions re Premiere Elements 8.0 (PRE).
    I have created (authored?) 14 projects with music using PRE and burned each on 1 DVD.  I did not save to a folder, but went to Share and Burn Disc.  They show well on TV from an ordinary DVD player.  Now I must combine these projects into 3 "master" projects on 3 DVDs and burn multiple copies to send to former members of my Boy Scout Troop.  See the chart below. I thought (silly me) that I could do that straightforwardly with PRE.  I am going to start following suggestions from Bill Hunt and Nealeh.

    Hey, those ain't "newbie" questions. The first one gets posted to the Forum Comments forum weekly. The second one, well I should have posted my normal detail, but got lazy - mea culpa, mea culpa.
    1.) This ARTICLE should step you through the processes with the e-mails. If you have any questions, let us know. There are several places, where e-mail notification can be turned ON and OFF. Some are global, and some are specific to threads.*
    2.) Ah, the ImgBurn site. The top 2/3 are all ads. Hey, it's great free software, so who can blame 'em? Scroll down to where the page has the various versions and what they addressed. There is a Download button there (well below those ads). That is what you want. Normally, I mention the scrolling way down page, but you caught me here.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    * Going back a few months, while trying to help another user on the Forum Comments forum, I got hit with a global change in my e-mail settings. I got about 1,000/day, for every forum that I participate in - think 1,000 x PS, PrPRo, Encore, InDesign, Illustrator, Audition, PrE and all of their sub-fora! Fortunately, it only took about 3 days for Adobe to get that fixed.

  • How to create a custom Project Preset Premiere Elements 9?

    Hi,
    In the help documentation of Premiere Elements 9 it says that i can create a new Project Preset: "The procedure for creating a preset differs if you’re changing settings for an open project versus establishing settings for a new project. Presets you create can be applied to new projects, and if you want to back up or distribute preset files, you can find them in the Settings subfolder of the Adobe Premiere Elements folder on your hard disk." (url).
    Sadly, i can't find the specific instructions that would help me to establish settings for a new project and save it.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • How can I export a completed project from Premiere Elements?

    There are a number of formats you can export from Premiere Elements. All are available under the Share tab and the major output formats are available under the Personal Computer option.
    To export your completed video for use in another project, use the DV-AVI output option.
    To export your video for display on the internet, use the WMV or MOV output options.

    I experienced the same problem as mreingrover. The Share features of iMovie appear to be completely unimplemented.
    I had had MacKeeper installed for a short while on my previous Mac; never on my new MacBook Pro. I could not find any trace of it in Application Support, Launch Daemons, or LaunchAgents, in either my user Library or the root Library. But I figured maybe there was some trace somewhere that had been copied over from the old system, so I deleted iMovie and went to reinstall it from the App Store.
    Now the App Store wants $14.95 for an app that has never worked right, and which is (I think) supposed to be free with my new MacBook Pro Retina.

  • Error importing old project into Premiere Elements 11

    Trying to import old project backup - that I made a couple of years ago.  When importing the Project file, I get the error
    "The selected file cannot be linked because it's type (video) does not match the original files type (audio and video)."
    I try and select the file, but it then gives the error "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (audio and video) does not match the original file's type (video).
    If I skip the ones that give me the error, I get an incomplete edit - with lots of bits missing.
    HELP!!!  I need to sort this asap......for a client.
    Thanks

    filippinno
    Here is my plan, either a start to better or a dud. We are going to start small to get a foothold in this.
    My major puzzlement is you telling me that you are replacing video with video and getting the message
    The selected file cannot be linked because its type (audio and video) does not match the original file's type (video)
    .The only time I have ever seen that message is when someone is trying to replace still with video or video with still.
    At this moment, where are the source media that went into the original Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project? Let us say, all in Documents in a folder named Special - all have their original names. Given that you are 100% that they are the ones that went into this project...the type (video or still) and file name and file extension.
    I am not sure if it matters for this test whether or not you are using Premiere Elements 11 or 9.0/9.0.1, I just want to find out what is going on with your source media.
    (a) Open the project using Skip All if you are hit with a bunch of "Where is....?" messages which I assume you will be.
    (b) Go to the Timeline, pick a file with the colorful Media Offline display, write down the file name from its title band.
    Right click that file on the Timeline and select Find in Media.
    From Organize Media, delete the Media Offline thumbnail that was pointed out to you clicking Reveal in Media.
    Go back to the Timeline and this same file, right click it and this time select Reveal in Project. That should take you to Project. Delete the file there that Reveal in Project points you to. That will also delete is counterpart on the Timeline. All traces of that particular Media Offline file are now gone in the project.
    In that project, go to Get Media/Files and Folders and browse to and select the original file (with the exact same file name and kind that you just deleted from the project) that you have saved back in that Special Folder in Documents.
    Drag that file from Organize Media or Project to the Timeline in the space made available by your deletion of it as an Media Offline thumbnail.
    Does that work to replace that particular file. Is it the file that you had there originally? Keep in mind that we are identifying this file by name in each step and need a match of file name from start to end.
    If this works for one, then we can plan around this basic finding. And, if this works we may revert back to Replace Footage. But, let us see what happens here first.
    What is your estimate of how many of these Media Offline displays are there to be dealt with? How many of the media are in place on that Timeline and are no problem?
    Looking forward to the results.
    Thanks.

  • Newbe requests how to remove "applause" from Project in Premiere Elements 4?

    This is the second time I attempted to make a large slide show using Photoshop Elements 9 and Premiere Elements 4  I am having two main problems:
    1.  I do not know how it got there but every time I run the slideshow on Premiere Elements I hear applause on each photo?  Don't know how it got there either and frustrated how to get rid of it
    2.  When I move a photo to another place it leaves a blank space.  I try to get rid of the space by going onto Edit and asking to delete and close gap.  Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.  Then sometimes my only option is to remove the present photo and it does not remove it.
    3.  Lastly I wanted to change composing the slide show from Premiere Elements to Photoshop Elements 9 but the latter would not recognize the file.
    THIS PROJECT IS A HUGE RUSH PROJECT FOR MY DAUGHTER'S 25TH ANNIVERSARY.  TIME IS RUNNING OUT AND I AM PANICKING.
    Thanks for your help.
    Kathy

    Kathy,
    You say that you have PrE 4.0, but I did not see which version of PSE you have. You would need PSE 4.0, to be able to go directly to PrE from PSE. Otherwise, one would need to do, as you have, and Export from PSE as a WMV file, which would then be Imported into PrE.
    The weakness in this latter method, the Export/Import, is that a WMV file is highly-compressed, so quality, when coming out of  PrE will be compromised. Next, if one has the same versions of the two programs, and they Send to PrE from PSE, once in PrE, they can choose Break Apart, to get all of the elements in the SlideShow separated again - this cannot be donw with the WMV Export/Import.
    Now, even with the WMV Export/Import method, one can still edit, but they are now cutting on a finished AV file, and things are not so easy - they are working on one large Video file, and one large Audio file on the Timeline.
    For the blank spaces, one can just cut those out of the Video, but if the whole Clip (the WMV file) has Audio, that needs to stay, things are not quite so easy. In your case, however, it might be easiest to just Delete the Audio from the WMV, cut the Video to suit, and then Import the Audio Clips that were used in PSE, and just use those again, listening closely for the one(s) with the applause, and substitute something else, instead. This editing will be much, much easier in Timeline View Mode.
    For that applause, it might be easier to go back to the Project in PSE, find where it is being introduced, and substitute for it there.
    Now, if the applause comes during otherwise silent passeges, you can just cut it out, or can lower the Volume to the point that it is not heard. If it comes over music or dialog, there is nothing easy, that can be done. To remove it, and save the music, or dialog, will be virtually impossible and take much time, for probably little improvement.
    Let us know just a little bit more about your Project and also the version number of PSE.
    Good lukc,
    Hunt

  • Load old projects in Premiere Elements 10 - Titles corrupt

    Hi,
    if I open video projects I created with Premiere Elements 8 in Premiere Elements 10, all my text in the titles is missing.
    Even if I export the titles manually as .prtl files from PE 8 and import them into PE 10, the text is still corrupt, since all text boxes seems to have a width of 0.
    How can I fix this problem?
    Thanks
    Konrad

    Km,
    Since the specs. of Titles has not changed in many versions, and they are defined by pretty solid XML, this surprises me. That you are having issues with PRTL Templates is a bigger puzzle, as they should work in all versions, at least back to about PrE 3. Something else is wrong.
    This is but a guess, here, but can you tell us what font was used in those Titles and Title Templates?
    Did you have any Text Styles applied? If so, do you recall what they were?
    As a test, when you open one of those Titles (or one of the Title Templates) into Titler, and then use the Selection Tool (the little arrowhead symbol at the top of the Toolbox), to reveal the Bounding Box. Is that Bounding Box collapsed? If so, you should still see some Handles (little squares at the corners, top and bottom). Click-drag on the side Handle, to expand the Text Box. Do you see anything then?
    Another thought - as this could be a display issue, I would update my video driver, to the very latest, from the mfgr's. Web site (do not trust Windows, or any utility to check for the video driver updates). Test.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Can I use adobe after effects with my project from premiere elements

    Wondering if I can use adobe after effects with my premiere elements project

    drunner
    What version of Adobe After Effects do you have?
    Whatever the case, I have not found any Adobe After Effects documentation that include a Premiere Elements project.prel file as a supported import choice.
    I suspect that you are going to have to export your Premiere Elements Timeline as a .mp4 file with a After Effects supported compression into After Effects.
    But, I would ask in the Adobe After Effects Forum just to double check.
    After Effects
    More later.
