Elements 13 organizer not responding

Installed Elements 13 a couple of days ago. When trying to open a file from the Organizer in the Editor, I frequently get "Organizer not responding." Wait ... wait ... try to shutdown Organizer, which itself takes a couple of minutes.
Did not have this problem with Elements 12.

Any comments on this problem? Thanks.
Later:
Deselecting the Media Analysis options has helped noticeably. It no longer freezes, but still seems to take longer than with Elements 12.

Just Elements 13.
Noticed something else. When I haven't used Elements for a while, things take considerably longer at first. Once I've worked with a couple of pictures, things speed up. Presumably this is due to having to swap various parts in when Elements is started. Once you're underway I'd guess the swapping is reduced and therefore things speed up.
Similarly, I notice faster response when I use Elements right after a reboot, with little else running.
I'm no technical whiz, but this suggests to me that more memory might help.
In any event, the major improvement seems to have come when I unchecked the Media-Analysis options. As things stand, the response is acceptable.
Thanks.

Elements Organizer Not Responding - Locks when gets to "100%"

This is simply unacceptable. If I understand right, EVERYONE who uses Organizer finds it does not work properly when you have a lot of pictures (I have lots). It locks as the app starts, while it searches <watched folders> - gets to 100% then "Not responding" error shows. I can't go in and tell it to stop watching folders, since it is locking. Ideas anyone, before I return this and get a refund? And shame on Adobe for allowing this to continue - there is someone who owns this function in the software development group, and they need the opportunity to find new career challenges.

My Photoshop elements 11 and 13 organizer suddenly exits. photoshop elements is not responding. Message occurs when the error is found. solicit help

My Photoshop elements 11 and 13 organizer suddenly exits. photoshop elements is not responding. Message occurs when the error is found. solicit help, That's all.

We really cannot know. So far you haven't told us anything about your system nor is there any feasible way to diagnose what this "missing file" could be, no matter what. That is, short of elaborate tracking and observation using specialised system diagnosis tools. The welcome screens can be brough back via the Help menu, but well, this might bring back the problems as well. Anyway, this is most likely nothing that a forum can help you with. If you know a computer geek, give him a call. Otherwise I don't see what we could do for you.

Adobe photoshop elements 11 organizer, NOT RESPONDING

I installed 11 yesterday and have converted existing catalogs, imported new media, including some movie clips. While in organizer I watched some of the short movies ( 2 minutes or less). I opened, watched and closed 2 or three movies and then Organizer just hangs in the "not responding" category of windows 7. This has occcurred 3 times. There are 18,000 items in organizer. This machine has 4 GB of memory and lots of disk space. Any ideas?

If You don’t need people recognition and the auto-analysis options you could turn everything off to improve performance. Go to:
Edit >> Preference >> Media Analysis
Uncheck all the boxes and click OK

Adobe premiere elements 11 not responding.

Adobe premiere elements 11 says, "not responding" and asks me if I want to close the program. I have done this multiple times and nothing has worked. I am getting very frustrated and am not impressed by this program. What can I do to fix it?

Here is what I was like you to look at and determine if this workflow behaves any differently than the one that you are using now. I am assuming that you are having similar problems with Go Pro Hero 3's 960p @ 48 progressive frames per second and with the Canon's 1080p @ 24 progressive frames per second.
Let us confine these initial tests to the Canon 1080p24, for now to avoid any complications of editing 960p48 in Premiere Elements.
1. Open Premiere Elements 11 and go to File Menu/New/Project and set the project preset to
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR 1080p24
or
PAL
DSLR
1080p
DSLR 1080p24
depending on whether you have a NTSC or PAL install for your Premiere Elements 11.
Before you exit the new project dialog, be sure to put a check mark next to Force Selected Project Settings on this Project.
2. Import your 1080p24 into the project using Add Media/Files and Folder/Project Assets.
3. In Project Assets, double click the file there to open the Preview Window and proceed to trim your video.
Here is a description of the process from my blog post. Please cross check what you are doing with the steps that I used in the blog post demo.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/06/pe11-project-assets-organization-for.html
If that is not successful, then stop and let us know.
If that is successful, then let us look at the 960p48...there is an atypical format for Premiere Elements. Here we are going to set the project preset manually as in the case with the Canon, but here we are going to use the project preset of:
NTSC
DV
Standard
or
PAL
DV
Standard
depending on whether you have a NTSC or PAL install for your Premiere Elements 11.
Before you exit the new project dialog, be sure to have a check mark next to Force Selected Project Setting for this Project.
Then continue with the import and trimming of the video in the Preview Window as you did with the 1080p24 footage.
Looking forward to your results.
Thanks.
ATR
Add On....By the way, how is your external hard drive formatted NTFS or FAT32? Depending on the results from the above mini tests, please look at importing/trimming one of your 1080p24 in the 1080p24 project but import the 1080p24 from a computer desktop save location instead of the external hard drive.

Photoshop Elements 10 not responding Win 7

I've tried re-installing, cleaning temporary files, reseting to Win 7 compatability and running updates - but as soon as I open the organizer or editor is stops working and says Photoshop Elements is not respondng. Any suggestions before I scrap adobe and try something new? Much appreciated

Elements 11 - not responding

I'm constantly receiving messages that Photoshop Elements is running, but not responding - prompting me to either wait for the program to respond or shut down. I've called my technician and verified that I've got enough free disk space and video card reader is good. Is it possible I need updates that I'm unaware of?

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.
OR
GO to Edit->Preferences and you will see Reset Preferences on next launch
Click this button to ensure that all product preferences are reset to default settings when Elements Editor is restarted next. Available at Preferences > General.
OR
Try with normal JPEG image also.
Thanks,
Garry

Photoshop Elements 9 not responding

I am using Photoshop Elements 9, but I am beginning to get the error message that it is not responding. What could be the problem and how to fix it?

It could be any number of things -- but you haven't given us enough information to be able to help you.
Are you running the 64-bit version of Windows 7? You may want to check out the 64-bit version of Windows 10. It runs like the wind on that OS!
New computers are usually full of outdated drivers, temp files and fragmentation.
Have you manually gone to Windows Update and downloaded all of the latest updates? Do you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements?
When did you last clean and defragment your system? In my books, I recommend Advanced System Care from iobit. It cleans your temp files, tunes your registry and defragments with a single button. And it's free!
http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.html
When does it lock up? When you first starting the program or when you're in the midst of editing? What is the source of the video you're editing when it locks?

Elements 10 not responding

I previously used Elements 8, and recently started having lagging and freeze up issues. If I click on the drop down font menu, a pop up appears at the top saying 'program not responding'. I bought and installed Elements 10 yesterday, and it is doing the same thing. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I think I found the problem. In the properties under the compatibility mode, it was wanting to use XP not Windows 7. Not sure why XP was there, but anyway, I changed this to Windows 7 and it seems to be fine now.

Preimere Elements 10 - Organizer "Import to Elements Organizer" Not Working...

APE v10
Windows 7
No Keyword Tags are added.
No star ratings are added.
Nothing has been manually added that is used to filter files from view.
1. Import .mts files to organizer, all files import fine.
2. Next time you open the folder (after closing Organizer and reopening) most of the time, not all videos show up now.
Try to reimport. Nothing new is added.
(Yes, I can confirm ther are 10 files, but only 3 are imported.)
3. Clicking the "Show All" button has no affect.
4. Renaming the folder in Windows Explorer, then Open Organizer, all videos are reimported.
The "Import to Elements Organizer" doesn't refresh files that don't show up in the view.

How did those MTS files get into your computer in the first place? And are they are on your C or main drive or on a second or external drive?
I always recommend opening a Premiere Elements project using the proper settings for that camcorder and then using the Get Media tool to open the capture tool or Video Importer.
This often activates components for working with and viewing that video that aren't otherwise activated.
And, of course, make sure you also have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements.

PSE 9 Organizer Not Responding

I just bought PSE 9. I started tagging people in organizer and it seemed to be working fine. Now I can work for a few minutes and all the sudden the little blue Window oval appers and it says that PSE Organizer is not responding and it gives me the option to close the program or wait for the program resume. I can hear my hard drive working like crazy when this happens It usually takes about 10 minutes to recover. It has gotten to the point that it often stops responding when I click on any thing in Organizer
I am very unhappy with this situation, does anyone have any idea whats is goin on and how I can fix it?
I am using Windows 7 with 6 meg of RAM

Same problem, have seen post that suggest it is a problem with your catalog.
I have since had to make up three new catalogs, this is getting very old!!!
If anyone has other solutions, please let me know.

PSE 10 Organizer NOT RESPONDING

Organizer has worked for several months. Two days ago stopped responding. Got Adobe Tech support to help un-installing and re-installing, but no change. PSE 9 Organizer works OK. Thumbnails load okay, but when move slider or try to edit get "Oranizer Not Responding" message and screen dims. When re-installed settings change so goes to Organizer automatically on opening, so Home/welcome screen not available. Before re-installation tried tutorials, etc. and they worked okay. I'm essentially out of business on PSE 10. How do I get Organizer to work?

I just followed advice of others to turn off all Media Analysis and Backup Synchronization and the Organizer appears to working normally again! Many thanks!!

PSE11 Organizer - Not Responding

I have a Windows 8.1 laptop with 8GB memory, 1TB Hard Drive, and Intel Core i5. When running PSE11 Organizer the organizer will hang up and I receive a message "Not Responding". Then the Organizer closes and I have to reload everything. Is there a setting I'm missing? Also I heard that the resolution of my monitor could be a problem. Is that possible?
Thanks for any input. I really enjoy my PSE11 but this is making me crazy!!

Try changing the settings in prefs by going to:
Edit >> Preferences >> Media Analysis
Uncheck all the boxes for people recognition and for the auto-analyzer. That often improves performance. You can re-start them at any time e.g. when you are away from your computer or niot editing photos.
