Crashing if opening from welcome screen

Hello,
I have this issue pretty often. I will open Premiere Pro CS6, select the project(Project A), it loads and opens the premiere screen. The media is currently yellow at this point and then it crashes. Sometimes premiere crashes at a different point, such as before I see the yellow media screens. However if I open premiere and open a new project, or a less intense project(Project B) that doesn't have any effects - that project loads. Then once inside premiere I can open the project(Project A) that was previously crashing. But to add more mystery, if I get project A to load using that method and then close premiere. Open premiere to the welcome screen and try loading Project A again, instead of it crashing with a crash report and no prompt, I get the prompt "Premiere pro has encountered a serious error and will attempt to save your project." All of these seem to happen if opening the project from the welcome screen. And this has happened on two different projects.
To give a little background on the projects, they are multicam projects - I am unsure if that has an effect. And the crashing only seems to happen on projects I have applied effects to. Typically just 3 (2x three-way color and RGB Curves) effects per clip.
Lastly: this might be completely unrelated, I have gotten the corrupt project file 2 or 3 times now. These have all happened randomly where I have worked on the project for an hour or so, save it - and close everything down safely. Come back the next day and it's corrupt. I've started to just save all my .proj files to dropbox to combat this. But this amount corrupt projects and crashing when opening projects is frustrating.
I have reinstalled premiere as well. I have deleted my preferences and I have started premiere holding combinations of Shift, Alt, and Control.
Here is a crash report I get after recieving the prompt "Premiere pro has encountered a serious error and will attempt to save your project." If you need a crash report where I don't recieve that prompt at all, I'm sure I can get it to crash again lol.

Here is a crash report from when the program crashes with no prompt :

What version of Premiere Pro? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Pro CS5.5 with the 5.5.2 update).6.0.2
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)Yes
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".10.8.2
What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime".Apple ProRes (Proxy)
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?Multiple Error Messages, See above
What were you doing when the problem occurred? See Above, Full Description
What other software are you running? These errors occur when running other software or just freshly booting into the machine
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? None
Tell us about your computer hardware. Be especially certain to tell us about third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU).iMac (Late 2009), 3.06 ghz Intel Core2Duo, 8GB DDR3 1066mhz Ram, nVidia 9400 256mb, 500gb HD. No third part hardware
Are you using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration? I believe so
Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both?No
Here is another crash from recently. I can pretty much make Premiere crash whenever I want. For example if I just switch back and forth between a project (Without changing a single thing), it will cause the "A serious error has occured, we will attempt to save your project". This is an error report from that.

Photoshop Elements 8 crashes when "EDIT" opens from Welcome screen

When Photoshop Elements 8 is launched from the shortcut on the desktop, welcome screen opens and at the bottom it shows "gathering user info....". It keeps doing it as long as I don't click on edit button. When I click on edit button, the edit windows opens with my name and soon it crashes and closes the program. After the program closes, it opens a crash report window which I submitted to Adobe three days ago. I am still awaiting for the response. Sometimes, instead of closing the program, it crashes my computer and a blue screen shows up. In this case, I have to shut down the computer and restart again.
I thought I can reinstall the proram but this software would not allow me uninstall either. When I click on "remove" button on the program in the control panel, a window pops up with a message " this action is only valid for products that are currently installed".
Any help from Adobe technician is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Following could be the possible workarounds :
1)      On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
         Go to c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere else.
            Now launch PSE and check if it works.
2) Try resetting the PSE preferences by
   1. Close Elements.
   2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Edit.
   3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
3) In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall.

PSE8 winxp Can't start Organizer from welcome screen

I click on organizer in welcome screen and the welcome screen goes away and organizer screen doesn't show. There is an icon on the taskbar indicating the status of Backup/Schronize which says that is is on 164 of 839 photos. A few minustes later it was updated to 179 of 839. Also although I paid for addional space the screen says that it is updated 0-2 G instead of 22G. I can't get to Editor either from Welcome screen. I thought backup was in background and shouldn't affect me running Organizer.

Organizer should get launch even though the Sync is running in the background. Was the PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe running in task manager when you face this issue ?

CS4 Premiere (and Encore) crash on opening with blue screen

I have been having a terrible time with CS4 Premiere Pro crashes over the last month or so. Initially PP would just disappear from the screen as it was opening up, and if it didn't crash it was quite often after the Matrox RT.X2 logo came up after selecting the project to open. I had less problems starting a new project than opening a previous one. Sometimes it would open and crash during the work process without warning...forcing me to save after every change. Then it got worse.
I looked to the Adobe CS4 bulletin on crashes and it was suggested to update drivers. The first driver I looked at needed an update (Nvidia Quadro FX1500 256 MB) so I had their download service do the work and installing. During the process it stopped with 'Nvidia display pannel extension cannot install due to a version mismatch. Resetting the display drives may solve this problem' without any suggestions on how to do that. I have 2 Dell 24" monitors slightly different from each other but worked great before all this.
From this point everything got even worse. System Restore to the previous day did nothing. Everytime I tried to open Premiere (or Encore) the whole computer crashed (blue screen) and restarted automatically. I can no longer play any video without crashing -- not an AVI, MOV, WMV, etc. Not even a finished DVD will play on the computer now.
I have the latest versions updates of Premiere Pro 4.2.1 as well as the Matrox RT.X2 tools.
While the Nvidia driver update situation made the situation worse, I was having problems with Premiere Pro CS4 way before this with 'instant' crashes and no warnings. Strange that Photoshop CS4 works just fine as this has evolved into a video problem...and I need your help to get PP running again.
I'm not a techie so please reply in novice language. When CS4 came out it took Matrox quite a while to get off 'beta' tools upgrade so I waited until it was off beta (April 2010) and had my computer hardware expert upgrade my computer with CS4 and the new Matrox install -- way too technical for me to do. It worked great...until about a month ago when all this started.
I don't think the equipment I have now on my 2006 computer would work with CS5 - maybe you can look below and tell me.
For reference, here is my equipment: XP Professional SP 3; AMD Athlon 64 x 2 dual core processor; 4800+ 2.41 GHz, 3.25 GB RAM; Nvidia Quadro FX1500 256MB; 2 Dell monitors - 2407WFP and ST2410; Matrox RT.X2; 2TB WE Raid Edition SATA 16MB; Blu-Ray burner BDR-2058BK; Pioneer 111 Dual Layer DVD Rewrite Burner; Sound Blaster Audigy4 24 Bit; Built in FD controller 2 IDE on the main board.

Thanks harm for your suggestions but I'm lost. I am not a techie. Went to your thread on building a new computer and it was way way over my head...so I'm back here asking for your suggestions as I couldn't even figure out how to copy/paste my equipment listed above and post this message there instead.
Took my box back to the vendor who put it together for me in 2006 for $6000 and he's going to try and get it up and running again for me. I told him about your recommendation to lose the Matrox and he doesn't think it's the problem if I want fast rendering, etc. He says he's used RT.X2 in a ton of systems he's put together and work just fine. He's going to try getting my present computer running, first of all without any new additions and then make suggestions. It ran beautifully under CS2, so much so I skipped CS3 and was very late adding on CS4 ... and that's when the problems started. Perhaps CS4 was just too demanding for my 2006 equipment...which probably means CS5 is even more demanding.
So....two questions:
1. If I upgrade what I've got, where do I start? Or is it worth upgrading or better to start brand new (budget problems no doubt)
2. If I start brand new, what do I put in the new box? I looked at your 3 different cost areas and the budget config is probably not what I need but warrior level too high. Even the middle road you recommened looks a little low for what I want to do making BR disks, but you would know.
I assume some of the current equipment I've got could still be used, perhaps even the Matrox if that keeps costs down by not having to replace it with something else. There is a new C drive for my programs and a new 2TB internal hard drive for files (which I mirror backup to an external 2TB drive).
Could you make some build recommendations that I could give to my vendor? Many thanks.
Brian
ps...how do you copy/paste on this forum?

Can't launch PSE 11 Organizer from Welcome Screen

I was trying to see if there was an easier way to scan my photos directly into PSE 11. i found this on the Adobe site. http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/twain-installed-photoshop-elements-11.html (See Windows 64 bit) I went into the Program File... Optional Plug-In and right clicked and copied. Then I went to the Program File... Plug In file and was going to copy it but didn't. I really didn't know what I was doing so I stopped and closed out of the Program Files. I was able to scan my files on my Epson scanner and get them into the Organizer without doing this.
I can't remember if I had the Organizer open at the time I was doing the above or opened it afterwards. Anyway I was scanning and organizing, backed up my pictures on a flashdrive and all was good and closed the Organizer. I then connected an External hard drive I hadn't used for a while to see what photos were on it. Then I went to open the Organizer as I wanted to do a backup on the External hard drive. Now as stated above, I can't open the Organizer from the Welcome Screen or from the Editor.
Did I screw something up from what I was doing in the first paragraph or what. Help!!

See if this link helps:

Having trouble opening from Welcome Window

I am not able to open the Editing window from the Welcome Screen. The organizer works but not the editor. Help!?

You can try using an older version of Reader, but you'll have to uninstall 9.5 first... or
Download a 30 day trial of Acrobat Pro and open, then save the document, with compatibility for newer versions.

After installing updates-Removing user-opens to Welcome screen

As the title says, I am setting up a computer for a relative and since the time I worked for Apple, I have forgotton the terminal commands to remove the test user I set up and reverting back to the welcome screen so the new user can set up the machine from scratch. I looked around here and could't locate anything pertaining to this specific issue using 10.7.X. I am not sure if the process changed since 10.4 or 10.5 but hope someone on here can assist me.
Thanks Much!

"Anyone ever heard of anything like this???"
Yes, mine did the same thing but not after a software update. I called and Apple is sending a technician to my house today to replace the hard drive. I could not boot from the system CD, a retail CD, in safe mode,in target disk mode or even from my backup drive. Thank goodness I have Applecare cause it isn't costing me anything but some time.
If you cannot get it to start up in any manner that generally means a hard drive problem. When the drive goes bad, the computer will not do anything. At least that is my experience. The same thing happed to me about 5 years ago with a brand new G-5 iMac. In that case I could not boot up from any media or in any way. Apple sent me a new drive and I put it in myself. It was under warranty also.
This is why it is so important to have a backup. With hard drives it is not a matter of if they will fail but rather when they will fail.
Good Luck!!

X crashed, cannot open display in screen session for X apps

I had X crash and logged back in, and now in my screen session I can't open any apps that use X, ie.,:
~/.fluxbox # gedit keys
cannot open display:
Run 'gedit --help' to see a full list of available command line options.
~/.fluxbox #
Must I start a new screen to have it work again or can be fixed within current screen? Thanks for any help!

Looks like your DISPLAY variable isn't set? What does
$ echo $DISPLAY
show? If nothing, try the following in your screen session (you may have to do this for each shell within screen that you're running):
$ export DISPLAY=":0"
(assuming that it is DISPLAY 0, which is the default)

4s screen flickering, keeps crashing when opening camera, then screen inverts

iPhone 4s, iOS 7.1.1
Screen has a line flickering through it, and the graphics also are starting to flicker. When I open the camera, the graphics invert to look like 'pop art', and then the camera crashes. When using other applications sometimes the app crashes, to a black screen and usually the graphics invert. The only way to rectify is to put the phone to sleep, then when i wake it up - its back to normal, until the next time...? Its becoming more and more frequent, and has been happening for 6 days now.

Try to set it up as new device, as explained in this article:
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If it does not work after that, try again, this time without using the backup, in case it contains corrupt data.
If still no luck, get it serviced by Apple, the problem might be hardware related.

Elements 8 Organizer crashes when opening from Editor

Hi,
on my new OS Win7, 64-bit Elements Orgenizer (EO) shuts down with an error message after the following actions:
Open EO
Select a foto and open it in Elemtns Foto Editor for editing
Return to the Organizer before or after any modifications to the foto via the Organizer-Icon in the right corner of the menu bar of the Editor
After a few milliseconds the Organizer crashes and a big white box appears telling that Organizer was shut down because of an error and asking wether an error report should be sent to Adobe.
This situation newer showed up on my old Vista (32-bit) system, where I had the same version of Elemnts 8 installed. I already sent several error reports to Adobe - no response yet. Running the program in XP (Service Pack 2) or Vista (Service Pack 2) compatability mode didn't fix the problem. I think Elements 8 has a problem when running on a 64-bit system.
Are there any suggestions or hints on how to avoid this crash or how to proceed?
Thank's in advance
Helmut

Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the PSE Organizer might crash, and often it is hard to diagnose quickly the reason for the crash:

Compressor crashes when opened from fcp

Hi there,
Im wondering if anyone can help solve this prob as yet tech support hasn't been able to.
When I try exporting using compressor from fcp both programs stop responding and I have to force quit them both. Exporting an qt movie or any other quick time conversion works fine.
My versions are fcp 5.1.2 & compressor 2.3
Thanks for your help.
Lach

I use to always have this problem. I reinstalled everything, and I;m not sure if that worked. What I do now is restart the computer before I go to Compressor. Only have that sequence open thatyou are exporting and that should work.
Although it could be a corrupt file (which happened to me)

Elements 13 crashes when opened from Lightroom 5

Lightroom is set with Elements 13 as default external editor an this is shown as 'elements editor' in Preferences > External Editing.
However when I use this Elements editor crashes.
I read in earlier discussion the following which relates to earlier versions:
Make sure you are pointing to the PSE application and not an alias. It’s usually found in the Support Files Folder (see image below which is for PSE11)
I tried this to set Elements 13 as the alternative editor which shows in Preferences alternative external editor as ' elements editor app and using this Elements works perfectly.
It appears there is no way of choosing the default editor so I uninstalled Lightroom and reinstalled it but the problem remained the same.
Is there anyway I can get Lightroom to recognise / choose the Elements Editor app in the support files?

This is an addition to my problem as I forgot to mention I am using apps on McBook Pro with OS Yosemite

Itunes 11 welcome screen every time I open the program.

Yeah,
itunes 11 opens to welcome screen every time I open the programme.
OS Win8
very annoying
help?

This is what worked for me!!!!!
Close iTunes.
With Windows Explorer go to View in the top menu and allow Hidden Files.
Navigate to:
C:\Users\[which ever user is you]\Appdata\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
Delete all files in this directory.
Start iTunes and see the Welcome Screen for hopefully the last time!
I am not an expert. This was a stab in the dark based on the Mac ByHosts solution and it just happened to work for me. Give it a try and let me know if it works.
Good Luck!
