Help with Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor - Won't work after Maverick upgrade

I bought Adobe Elements 11 in March of 2013.  It was working fine until upgrading to Maverick.  It will not open now.  Adobe will not help without a serial number.  Apple does not provide serial numbers when you buy directly from the App Store.  After 3 hours of trying to unintall and reinstall, no luck.  Apple said to call Adobe back, Adobe says to call Apple.  Finally just asked Apple to refund me the $85.00.  They said said they ‘can’t’ since I’ve ‘had it for so long’ (7 months ?? ).  They said the problem was my fault because I didn’t check and make sure Adobe Elements was compatible with Maverick before installing Maverick.  I should mention that it states (on the App Store page) that Adobe Elements 11 is "compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or later”.   Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if any kind of resolution was achieved?   Again, any help would be greatly appreciated. 
Tony

  • Need help with Adobe Premiere Elements 2

    I can drag a large high rez jpeg into timeline. Then when I click to playback....it gets more pixelated. That's a bad beginning. Then, when I go to export it, I've tried several extensions. All look bad during playback on YouTube. This should be pretty simple. High quality jpeg, but is fuzzy in movie. What's going wrong?

    hi Bill -
    ok fine. I have PSDs too. I tried what you said.
    I put a PSD right beside a JPEG in the timeline. I rendered it (which I
    didn't know to do because the instructions don't even mention it. The
    instructions are terrible. Seems it leaves out a lot of info.)
    So, then I click PLAY on my monitor. I see no difference between the PSD
    and the JPEG yet. So, if I want to put this on YouTube, what's the best way
    exactly, without gettting too technical?  It looks like I have the choice
    between Exporting in Mpeg or Quicktime or Windows Media. I think youtube
    likes wmv.

    When you drag the stills to the Timeline, there should be a red line
    above them. Press Enter to Render the Timeline.
     
    Do not know the particulars of PrE 2, but in later versions, you can
    Rt-click on the Program Monitor, and choose Magnification = 100%, rather
    than Fit. You might have to resize your Program Monitor, but check at 100%.
     
    Also remember a few points:
     
    1.) You are looking at a DVD-quality image now, and that was designed
    with low-rez CRT TV's in mind, and NOT hi-rez computer monitors. DVD vs
    hi-rez sources and displays is probably less than what VHS vs DVD was, not
    that long ago.
    2.) You are looking at an emulation, a preview
    3.) Your images have already been compressed to JPEG once, loosing
    quality. That is why I always work in PSD, especially if there has already
    been one JPEG compression, whether in camera, or in the image processing
    stage. I keep JPEG either out of my workflow, or as limited, as is
    possible. Some do not see the quality loss with JPEG compression, but I do,
    and if I can create images that are as good as it gets, I know that my
    clients will be happy.
     
    Good luck,

  • Help with Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0

    Hello!
    I recently began fooling around with Premiere elements and I had a couple of questions about it:  First, if you could please watch this video:  http://www.youtube.com/user/iTerabithia#p/search/6/01qfQSyq1WI      In the almost beginning it shows Lucy hug Edmund and then a shot of Lucy crying fades into it and then out again.  Do you know how to do that with Adobe Premiere Elements?  And also, how is that color achieved from the very beginning of the video?  And is there any way to do audio effects?  If you could please answer these questions I would appreciate it ever so much!
    Thanks!

    John T.,
    Thanks. I should have added that info.
    What does that little "scene" look like to you? I'm thinking a Video Clip on a higher Video Track, and maybe with less that 100% Opacity. Guess that if it covers the whole Frame, it would not be a PiP, officially, but would involve the same principles.
    Appreciated,
    Hunt - who sometimes gets lost in acronyms and jargon!

  • Help with Adobe Premiere Elements window appearing!

    I've owned Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 for about 5 or 6 years now. I still have the original disc and serial number. I installed it on my laptop (Sony Vaio bought in 2009. Runs on Vista), and when I open the program up and click on "files and folders" and double click on a video, I keep getting a pop-up saying "Adobe Premiere Elements is not working." And then the program closes. It frustrates me. I can't afford a new update. Anyway this can be fixed? It never did this to me on my old laptop which I do not have anymore. Thank you for your time.

    Before you focus on the Premiere Elements 4 itself, let us look at the computer environment and the properties of the video that you are importing into the project.
    1. Given you have Premiere Elements 4. Is it installed on Windows Vista 32 or 64 bit?
    2. What are the properties of this video that you are importing into the new project and what have you set as the project preset to match the properties of that source media?...I am looking for video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, pixel aspect ratio, duration. If you were to import a few jpg photos into a new project would that shut down the project/program as well?
    3. Do you have the latest verision of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 4? Do you have the program set for Run As Administrator and set to run from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    4. Is your video card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
    5. Is your computer optimized with a program such as ccleaner (regular cleaner and registry cleaner)?
    http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
    6. Please describe your computer resources?
    Let us start here and then we can decide what next based on your details.
    Thanks.

  • My adobe premiere elements editor doesn't work

    I recently purchased Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Elements as a package. My Photoshop works fine, but my premiere isn't working. The organizer allows me to import photos and videos, but it won't allow me to do any edits. I have windows 8.1 with my PC. Any ideas as to what i can do to let the editor for premiere work?
    Thanks

    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 64 bit.
    How far do you get into Premiere Elements 13....Can you Sign In and see the Welcome Screen and/or one of the workspaces?
    a. Do you import source media into the Premiere Elements Editor, and the program freezes and crashes when you try to do that
    (if so, what are the properties of your source media?)
    or
    b. Is it that you cannot import any file into the Premiere Elements Editor- you cannot get beyond Video and New Project in the Welcome Screen
    or
    c. Is it that you can import source media into the Premiere Elements Editor, you start to edit the source media on the Timeline, then the program freezes or crashes
    (if this is the case, what are you doing in the Timeline when this happens?)
    Above I have taken for granted that you are importing into the Premiere Elements Editor with one of the Add Media choices like Files and Folders. Are you instead importing into Elements Organizer 13 and trying to switch from there to the Premiere Elements workspace for video editing?
    For whatever is happening, are there any error messages associated with the event? Have you checked the Computer/Manage/Event Viewer/Windows Logs and its Applications for error or warning messages?
    Bottom line, please supply more details so that we can plan troubleshooting strategy for your issue.
    Thank you.

  • Need help with Adobe Premiere Elements 9 for the Windows XP PC

    Just got it today, so I could make my own video and audio files from pre-existing ones.  I first used a version of Adobe Premiere back in school in the '90s, and seemed to easily make them there, while not working on school work.  There was a row for inserted video, and a row below that for inserted audio.  I'm out of college currently, and just bought Elements 9, as said, but am struggling with it.  Could someone please tutor me to get me started?  Perhaps even talk over the phone?  I'm trying to combine different video and audio tracks into a new singular video/audio file.
    Thanks in advance.
    >>
    Welcome to the forum, but unfortunately, you have posted to the Premiere Pro, CS 4 and Earlier forum.
    Instead, you should post to the PrElements Forum, as few here will know anything about PrE 9.
    Now, the starting secret of PrE is your Source Files. Can you tell us the full details of those?
    Next, matching those to the correct Project Preset, is the next step. Can you tell us what you chose at New Project?
    For a list of some of the resources for learning PrE, see this ARTICLE.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    >>
    What are Source Files?  You mean the videos I'm using?  The main one is here:
    http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/bones.php
    Two to four additions to it will be used with video parts from here:
    http://www.tfarchive.com/cartoons/videoclips/us_commercials.php
    And my first project is a .prel file.  Is that what you meant?
    Is it possible I could get assistance over the phone?
    Thanks.

    I created a more precise list of what I wish to combine to make one new video program:

    Not sure if I can get all of these videos in, in the 33 second time limit. I'm willing to cut either the trypt.mpg clip, and/or the youtube link-clip below it.
    I have a youtube downloader program, so no worries there. Also need to know how to cut video so I can make these clips that are from youtube and tfarchive.
    I also want the video to contain the same quality as shown from each file here, and all fit the size of the largest file (the youtube one, I think it is).
    Please LMK how to do this, and if any of this is unclear. Things like this are all I really want to use APE9 for, so I won't be asking much else here.
    Thanks.

  • I need help with adobe premiere elements 12

    I just bought premiere elements 12 and i tried to upload a video to youtube and it was longer than 15 minutes and it said it was to long to upload to youtube. I have uploaded a 22 minute video before how can i upload a longer video thanks.

    YouTube won't allow you to  upload a video that long directly from Premiere Elements.
    If you've got a modified YouTube account that allows longer videos, you can do so by manually uploading a video you output using Publish & Share/Computer/AVCHD with the YouTube HD preset.

  • Problem with Adobe Premiere Elements 10 : error DW046

    Dear community members,
    I have bought Adobe Premiere Elements  10 and installed it from the DVDs on my MAC OSX10.5.8 on december 27, 2013
    When creating a new project , I get the following message :
    following a serious error, Premiere Elements 10 must stop
    Then I click OK and I get a new message :
    The Premiere 10 application has closed suddenly after having been rebooted
    Then I end up to the error report window. I have sent the error report  to Apple  ( I can send it to you if you want)
    I have also got the following error message :
    DW046 : following conflicting process were running, block : dynamiclinkmanager
    Notice : it seems this problem is occuring since I underwent a power failure while working on a project. When I want to open an existing project I get the following message :
    it seems that Premiere Elements has closed in an unexpected way during the last session. Do you want to open the previous project?
    When I say YES, I save it and it comes back to the welcome menu and I cannot see this project.
    I have tried to deinstall and reinstall Premiere 10 : this is impossible since I am required to deactivate dynamiclinkmanager that I cannot find.
    Notice that Adobe AIR is unable to find a solution whilst it recognizes there is a problem.
    Thanks you for your help

    AT Romano,
    The various links you have provided were very helpful. I could kill the dynamiclinkmanager.
    It seems that it is now working.

    Do you go to the last AutoSave to open that or do you go to the save location of the project file (project.prel) to open that file?

  • Problem reading GoPro Hero Black 4 files (1080p 120 fps) on my iMac with Adobe Premiere Elements

    Hello,
    I have a problem reading GoPro Hero Black 4 files (1080p 120 fps) on my iMac with Adobe Premiere Elements : the file is read but the quality is quite bad. When I watch it with other software like VLC or MPC, the quality is perfect but the video is sometimes slowed or there are some jumps in the reading.
    What is the issue with this ?
    thakns for your help !
    Olivier.

    This is easy. I do it all the time. FCPX ingests GoPro footage just fine. Optimize, and you're good to go.
    BTW: A common hiccup occurs when dealing with over-cranked footage. (60fps or 120fps.) Be sure to "conform speed" to actuate the slo-mo. 'Tis also important to designate your project / timeline at 24fps or 30fps to realize the speed difference.
    I've gotten burned in the past. I'll drag my over-cranked GoPro footage to the timeline. As it is the "first" clip layed into the timeline, the project assumes THAT speed as a default. (As per my preferences.) Thus, when I "conform speed," nothing seems to happen. That's because my project is displaying at the higher rate. A 60fps timeline showing footage shot at 60fps looks "normal speed."
    FYI. (And disregard if you know all this.)

    Help with Adobe.premiere.elements12. Please
    It would appear under the organizer tab that the photos are organised in the lowest folder in the folder structure within Windows Explorer.  How can I use the Windows Explorer structure to organise the photos within Elements.

    In a situation such as yours, I tend to consolidate items into folders so I have folders of nice workable numbers of images, somewhere between 20 and 200 images. Now, whatever, once you've imported, do your moving within LR, not the OS! I will select all in a folder and drag into a folder a level or two or three above, and then delete the newly empty subfolders. I hope this helps a bit!
    Once you've reached just new Imports of camera output, you'll be flying along.
