Premier Elements 9 operating problems

I am just getting around to using Premiere Elements 9. I installed it and Photshop Elements 9 at one time several months ago and have used Photshop Elements with no problems.
A. When I start Premiere Elements and get to the Welcome Screen. I select "New Project" after a short period the New Project Window pops up. I can not enter data into the window. If I close that window, and go to File, New, Project. The New Project window opens again with the Name box Highlighted with "New Project". I give it a new name after which nothing can be entered in the other boxes and "OK" can not be selected.
B. At this point, I uninstalled Premiere Elements then reinstalled it with my installation disk. It promps to shut down the computer after disk 1 whick I did. After rebooting the computer, I again went to the welcome screen of Premier Elements and select "New Project". The new project window opens with the Name Box Highlighted with "New Project". I give it a new name and I can now select "OK". The program now opens. A box appears indicatiing there is limited content and asks to install additonal content with the content disk after which I then inserted the disk 2. It asks to select "Yes" but I can not select it. Therefore the Content Installation Disk will not install at this point.
C. At this point, I close the program and then Installed the Premiere Elements Content Disk. I restart the program and at the "Welcome Screen" I select "New Project". The program responds exactly as in the paragraph A. shown above with no access to the program.
D. I again uninstalled and then reinstalled Premiere Elements. At the completetion of the installation of disk 1, instead of shutting down and rebooting. I now install the content from disk 2. I now reboot the computer and go to the Welcome Screen and select "New Project". The program responds exactly as in paragraph A. above with no access to the program.
I am at a loss to figure out how to get this program to work. For your information, I am using windows 7, 64-bit on a Dell XPS 8100 desktop computer.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Tom,
Welcome to the forum.
Take a look at this ARTICLE, which starts with a checklist to get PrE working best. It next goes into a lot of troubleshooting steps to tune up one's OS, and computer.
I would also look into your dispaly driver, i.e. the video card's driver. What make/model of video card do you have installed?
What is the installed video driver's number/date?
Have you gone to the Dell driver download page, to see what the latest driver is? If not, that would be my first step, and download and install that driver.
Good luck,
Hunt

Elements 10 recompose problem

Hi I have an Elements 10 recompose problem. I unlock the background layer, choose the recompose tool, mark the elements I want removed red, but when I squeeze the picture together, the red marks immediately disappear and those formerly marked red elements do not disappear. Can anyone help? Thank you so much, I really need this feature, Thomas.

I'd first try resetting the Recompose Tool by clicking on the small white downturned arrow (far left just above the toolbox)
and then click on Reset Tool.
If that doen't work then resetting the pse 10 editor preferences might.
Hold down the Shift+Alt+Ctrl (Shift+Cmd+Option mac) keys just after starting the launch of the pse 10 editor.
Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the photoshop elements settings file.
Press Yes because you do.

Premiere Elements 12 output problem

I am having problems outputting my project. Different errors messages. One says transcoding error. Another time it says export error. Other times it crashes. And then the program won't even open.
Any suggestions?
bwatson9

Steve,
First, thank you for your prompt response. This is the first time I have used Premiere Elements 12. I don't seem to have a manual for the software.
The product was bought with my new computer. I am using windows 8.1 (64-bit) with Intel Core i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz. I have 12 GB of installed RAM. I have 1TB hard drive of which this is the first project I done.
I have checked to make sure that I am getting all Windows and Microsoft Updates. I even manually went to Windows Update and installed the optional updates.
The project is a 20 min. video using mostly photos and 2 small video clips. The project is saved in its own folder.
When I go to the timeline in Expert view I do see an orange-yellow line above the timeline. It runs the whole length of the project.
I understand from reading the FAQ's that each photo cannot be larger than 1000 x 750 pixels. I will check that and reduce their size. Is there anything else that I need to do?
Where can I find a manual?
Thanks,
bwatson9

A lot depends on a lot.
What operating system are you using? What processor do you have and how much RAM and how much free space is on your hard drive?
How long is your project? What model of camcorder is your video coming from and what format and resolution is it?
Have you ensured that your project file is saved to its own folder, with no other project files in this folder?
When you add your video to your timeline in Expert view, do you see a yellow-orange line above the clips, along the top of the timeline? This indicates a mismatch between project settings and video specs.
If you are on a Windows computer, have you set up your computer to get both Windows and Microsoft Updates -- and have you manually gone to Windows Update and ensured you have even the optional updates that don't install automatically?
When did you last run Disk Cleanup and Disk Defragmenter?

Elements 11 organiser back up problems

Organiser asks me to back up my catalog which it proceeds to do. Before it can finish the following errors message comes up:
Error encountered while writing file(s)/users/user/library/applications support/adobe/elements organizer/catalogs/my catalog/catalogue.pse11db
What's this all about and how do I correct the problem?

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1050248?tstart=0
First you have to understand that the organizer does not store photo files. It only stores the path (location on the disk) for the real photos. If photos have been deleted, moved or renamed out of the Organizer, not from within the organizer, the saved path is wrong but still in the list.
- You have two choices : either use the file menu to reconnect missing files -- then select all -- then delete all. That will remove all missing files from the Organizer list. Alternatively, you can simply start a new catalog.
- Note that if you have your organizer edit/preferences set to 'watch' folders, that means that all new files in the watched folders will be searched for and you will be prompted to import them. In your situation, I would disable this preference in the edit/preference menu so that no automatic process tries to import new files.

PSE 7 Full Back up problem

I have recently moved to a new desktop using Windows Vista 64bit. I installed Elements 7 and moved all my pictures across by doing a full back up on my previous machine (XP) and restored the catalogue in Vista. All seems to work well but having downloaded more photos I have tried to complete the first full back up on Vista using an external hard drive. Having calculated the space required when the back up starts I get the following message "Error encountered while writing file". I have tried several hard drives and get the the same message on each so I conclude it is not an issue with the hard drive. Can anyone suggest what the problem is and how it might be fixed? Many thanks.

Some troubleshooting suggestions:
1. Right-click the Photoshop Elements 7.0 icon in your start menu or desktop, and select Run As Administrator. (On Vista, running as administrator is different than running in an account with administrator priviliges.) You can often work around obscure problems with permissions this way.
2. Try making a new test catalog with one pic in it and backing it up. If the test catalog succeeds, then that suggests something particular to your main catalog.
3. Try backing up to your C drive. If you can, then the problem is particular to your other drives; if you can't, the problem probably isn't permissions.
4. Try disabling your anti-virus.

Elements 13 disc problem installation

Hi, I have trialled free Elements 13 (which is still valid for 2-3 weeks) and decided to buy the disc version. It does not install or give out any message at all regards the problem.The disc is heard revolving inside. Contacted Store where I bought computer who went over many tasks which all veered to no probs with comp. He suggested since I have trial version at moment just add the serial sequence of my bought disc and all should be well in registering He also thought new disc could be faulty which I find hard to believe. So do I return disc or is there a solution please?

Thank you for quick response, I am on Windows8.1 and use Google Chrome ,followed your lead to optical disk .No Change. Because of Elements disk not being recognised at all by computer and testing out other dvd's and cd's all to be working, I now have to believe the disc is at fault. I tried it out on neighbours comp and is the same- dead . No messages just the same sound of it revolving in drawer. Shows up as totally empty in devices and drives. Phoned again to where I bought computer and they came to same conclusion again after proving all ok with comp.. I now am going to send it back get refund and download online. You say it should be straight forward to enter my serial number but unless I am on wrong page it goes towards me having to purchase again which is not on. I will wait for your guidance on this matter before returning disc.
Thanks again for your help Jeff,its the first time I,ve had to use forums.

Premiere elements trial download problems

I seem to have downloaded adobe premiere elements 10 but I can't extract it? I keep getting this "invalid checksum" pop-up.

If the download is completed in the Adobe Download Assistant you can temporarily turn off the feature to verify the checksum. The following steps will allow you to temporarily disable this feature:
Open the Disk Utility located in Applications/Utilities
Go under the Disk Utility menu and select preferences
Deselect the option to verify checksums
Try mounting your DMG file
I would recommend turning this feature back on though after the installation is complete. Also if you notice this happening on additional files it can indicate a problem with your Internet connection.

Elements 10 installation problems

After a hard drive crash, and a Win 8.1 reinstall, I am getting error messages about not being able to create a file or folder on the C drive while trying to reinstall Adobe Elements Premier 10. Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 loaded from the same DVD with no problems. What now?

mikedf
Premiere Elements 10 on Windows 8.1 64 bit.
Before we go further, what video card/graphics card does your computer use? NVIDIA GeForce? If so, stop
and report back. Otherwise, please read on....
After we have the answer to that, we can explore
a. copying the installation disc content to a folder on the Desktop and then installing the program from there using
the setup.exe
b. downloading and installing tryout Premiere Elements 10 files from the following web site and then inserting
your purchased serial number into them during the installation process
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-10-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
Where on the C drive is the installation being pointed to? How much free hard drive space is there at the
location being pointed to?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.

Photoshop Elements 12 editor problem

I have Elements 12 with a valid serial number from purchase. My problem is with getting into the editor. When I click on the editor button, I get a box saying that I can't use the editor until I validate my serial number. I click the validate button, it spins for a few seconds then right back to the same box to click again. It just repeats itself and I can't use the editor. Can you help? Thanks.

Try deleting the prefs and saved application state, also be sure you are updated to 12.1.

Elements 9 printing problems with epson 3880

HI All:
Elements was working fine with epson 3880.
Problems developed:
1. Would print color pics in black and white only while in Editor; color pics printed ok in Organizer
2. Now Print Preview does not work in either Editor or Organizer
3. Now cannot print in either Editor or Organizer
I purchased Elements online. I do not have a CD for reinstall.
Any help would be appreciated.

I am having a similar problem that seems the reverse of yours in a way, though it may be related. Mine occurred only with the disk-installed version, not the downloaded trial version, and it was present from the start on my iMac. Everything worked fine with the 3880 and 2400 printing from the trial version of PSE9 (downloaded), just as it had with PSE8. CS5 and Apple Aperture are also installed and had been working normally. Then I received the install disk for PSE9 and installed it. After that, Preview did not produce a preview, PDF did not produce a PDF, and Print did not produce a print. CS5 also would not preview or print after that. Aperture, however, was unaffected. Some experimentation revealed that the problem occurred only with "Photoshop Elements Manages Color" selected and printer color management turned off. With "Printer Manages Color" selected, it printed.
I uninstalled both CS5 and PSE9 and reinstalled 8, which once again worked properly. Hoping there had been an install error as the cause of the problem with the original installation of 9, I then uninstalled 8 and reinstalled 9, and the problem recurred. So it's back to PSE8, and try to figure out how to call the problem to Adobe's attention without paying for a tech support session. Interesting that a glitch that causes a problem with PSE's printing can also affect PS's printing.
I suspect your problem is related to mine. Do you use a Mac? I think the reason the problem didn't occur at first with my system is that the trial installation is not the same as the paid one, if only because the trial version doesn't have the user sign up with Photoshop.com or whatever it is, which I had never done until I installed 9 from the disk. So it seems that something in the full, purchased version is causing the glitch. I have no idea why your version should have worked at first, then crumped.
Two more things I'm going to do now: reinstall CS5 on the iMac (should be OK, as it was before I got 9), and install 9 on my laptop to see what happens.
My advice for now is to download the trial version of 9, uninstall the current installation of 9, install the downloaded trial version, and (without entering the serial # from your downloaded version) see if it works properly. Then contact tech support. Especially if you have a Mac, tell them you have heard from others who have related the same problem to you.

Organizer elements 11. Problem with your internet connection

I am trying to access facebook and Flickr via the Organizer with elements 11. I went to preferences and cleared the oline services, when I try to refresh the partner services I am greeted with the error " there is a problem with your internet connection, check your firewall settings" .
Windows 8, updated. I tried disabling the firewall. I have also tried making sure permissions are set up to allow all adobe products access through the frewall when it is enabled. No other network managment services or virus scanners installed. just default 64bit windows 8.
I am currently left with no partner services; facebook, flicker, picasa, etc.... I could reinstall organizer i guess to get the default services back...
I found discussions on the web but none with a solution. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4035670
Any help would be great

I apologize for the delay. An update was released shortly after I posted the question that resolved the issue. Thank you for your assistance though. As soon as I read your advice I went to my laptop to follow your instructions. Upon opening photoshop I was prompted with an adobe update message. After the update the issue was resolved. Again, sorry for not updating the situation.

Elements 12 signin problem

PS Elements 12 continues to report that there is no internet connection or the pc clock is not set correctly; this is not the case. It reports this when the signin to the editor is made. The firewall is off, the antivirus is off, the clock has been reset; what else is there to do to login to the editor? Never had this problem with PS Elements 10.

Is this the first time you are trying to launch the editor with a view to registering it and activating it? If so then I suggest launch the editor in Trial mode and before doing anything, go to:
Help >> Updates
Let it finish updating the product and then you can now go back to:
Help >> Complete Adobe ID .......................
This should make sure the PSE is awake and can go to the Internet.
Good luck but post back if this worked or not.

Reformatting WD Elements External HDD problem

I have a problem with my WD Elements 2TB hard drive.
So a little background.
I have a mid-2010 MacBook, 8GB RAM 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo, 250GB HD, OSX Lion 10.7.4.
The hard drive is a 2TB USB external Western Digital Elements formatted to NTFS.
So, I used this disk to backup all my pictures and documents from all of the house computers.
I had the only Mac, and the rest were Windows 7 PCs and one running XP
The NTFS worked seamlessly with my PCs and I had NTFS-3G and MacFuse reading the NTFS on my Mac running Lion with no problems at all. None. I never experienced any problems with the NTFS-3G/MacFuse setup that I read about online.
A few weeks ago, I was putting some documents onto the disk from one of my W7 PCs.
After I believed it to be through copying, I clicked “Remove Hardware Safely” in the bottom right corner by the clock.
I was in a hurry to get out the door, and forgot you had to click the bar icon, then select the device from a list that pops up.
I just clicked once and yanked the USB
Then, I realized it was still transferring another file.
Uh oh.
I didn’t have time to plug it in and see what happened, so I left.
A week later, I needed to transfer a rather large .mov file from my PC to my Mac for editing. I plugged in the Elements, and waited for it to come up. And waited. And waited.
And restarted the PC, and waited.
Nothing.
So I plugged it into my Mac.
No icon appeared on the desktop like normal, but “WD Elements” showed up in Disk Utility. I verified and repaired it, not too worried.
It sat there repairing it for about 15 minutes or so, then it came back with an error saying it could not repair the disk.
This was two weeks ago.
I have now found that the drive is corrupted.
When i plug it in now, it shows up, but it takes a very long time to open files on it, and copy/paste and navigate.
it needs to be reformatted.
but, it has 264.3 GB of files on it, a conglomeration of PC and Mac files.
and my hard drive has 60 GB of free space.
I need to get the files off, reformat, the put them back on.
i cant lose any of these files, some are pictures i have no where else (i know, i know...)
if i make a disk image of the drive with Disk utility how large will the file be? 1TB? 264.3GB? or is there some way i can compress it or something?
and, if I make a disk image of the drive, how will i be able to get the files back on?
Thanks.

Take the drive to a Windows PC and install Data Rescue ($100) and let it work on reading the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, outputing the recovered files to another large external hard drive (formatted exFaT on the PC, not on the Mac and not NTFS!)
This is going to take hours to complete, so buy the software upfront and get it over with.
Once it's finished you can hook up the drive to the Mac and it will read it, no NTFS reading/writing software required.
If the PC your using is a Windows XP machine and there is no exFAT, then install the free exFAT for XP from Microsoft first.
Take a second to learn about drives and formatting, it's not wise to use NTFS software as you see now the problem.
