How do I configure the custom external editor to work with Premiere Elements 13

Situation
I own Lightroom 5.6 and I'm experienced. I've just bought Premiere Elements 13 and I'm a video-editing virgin (be gentle with me). I've spent a day experimenting, reading, watching videos, I've tried asking my question in Premiere Elements forum, and I'm still stuck (i.e. I've tried reasonably hard to solve my own problem).
Problem
I've tried to set up the custom external editor in Lightroom 5 to send photos to Premiere Elements, so that I can incorporate images into movies. Having set it up, when I use it by selecting Photo/Edit In/Premiere Elements 13/, there is an exciting lull as a copy of the image is created and appears in LR, then Premiere Elements launches, then what??? There is no clue as to what has happened to the image regarding its import into Premiere Elements 13. It doesn't appear on the screen, it doesn't appear in the Organizer, it's no-where to be seen, other than in LR!
Resolution sought
Can anyone tell me:
1. Is it possible to use Premiere Elements as an external editor in LR5 ?
2. What are the precise settings for each field (I've played with the various field options but obviously haven't yet found the right combination)?
3. If I configure it correctly, what does good look like: what should I expect to see happen in Premiere Elements when I squirt photos over from LR5 via the 'Edit In' option in LR5?
I don't know if this is relevant: MacBook Pro 16GB 2.8Ghz i7, 750GB SSD (i.e. plenty of space, plenty of horsepower), OS X 10.9.5
I'm hoping the answer isn't 'sorry, it can't be done' because if it is possible, it would be a real contribution to my video editing workflow.
Thanks
Phil

You don't have to buy an Apple keyboard, but you probably need at least to buy a keyboard that connects via proper USB instead of through some Windoze-world adapter, which probably requires a driver that's not available for the Mac OS.
The Apple Bluetooth KB and Magic Trackpad make a fabulous combination for use with any MacBook Pro that spends a lot of time in clamshell mode, because the trackpad works exactly like the built-in trackpad. So there's no transition adjustment to make when you pack up your MBP and go portable with it.

    I also don't know if I this is the right place for my question (Adobe directed me here) so please don't shout at me if I've come to the wrong place (I expect if I get no joy here, when I post it to an LR forum, they'll shout at me too :-)

    I do not have Lightroom 5 or other version of it. I did do some work on an earlier version tryout of it.
    And, I believe now as then, that the answer to your question is No. Bottom line, if there is integration
    to be found between Lightroom, it is between Photoshop Elements and the Elements Organizer, not the Premiere Elements Editor.
    The following is the extent of my travels through Lightroom with focus the Slideshow Module.

    Good suggestion to get the Lightroom view point at the Adobe Lightroom Forum.

    You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

  • How do I change the main external editor from PS CC to PS 6?

    I put a trial version of PS CC on my computer and Lightroom 4 has changed the main external editor to the CC trial version. I don't want this to happen and I don't want PS6 to be an "Additional External Editor." I want the main editor to be PS6 at all times but I cannot seem to change this.
    Is this possible or is the only solution to get rid of the trial version of PS CC? If I trash the trial version of PS will Lightroom 4 automatically "find" PS6 again.
    Thanks

    Thanks Gener7, but that did not work.
    I also tried opening Bridge’s Preferences> File Type Associations and clicking the Reset to Default Applications button.  Then see Photoshop CC 2014 listed next to all basic image formats.  but did not work
    Also tried this: but did not work
    --Open Bridge. 
    --Use the Keywords panel menu command Export to save your keywords (not in the Bridge or Photoshop folders or their support folders).
    --Quit Bridge.
    --Hold down the Command-Option-Shift keys.
    --Launch Bridge.
    --When the small dialog box appears, release the three modifier keys and elect to replace the Preferences and purge the cache.

  • How can I raise the volume on a video clip in Premiere Elements 12?

    I want to raise the volume on a video clip in Premiere Elements 12. Can anyone help?

    jcomput
    Always good to give the computer operating system involved in case any computer specific details needed to be included. But here is your
    generalized yet specific answer for Premiere Elements 12 and increasing the volume of a video clip.
    If you are in the Expert workspace...
    a. click and drag upward the orange band that runs horizontally through the middle of the audio clip.
    or
    b. go to Adjust Tab/Adjustments Palette/ Volume Panel expanded on move the volume slide toward +6 dB.
    0 db does not represent no sound. It represents the volume of the sound when it was recorded. 0 to +6 dB increases the sound above the recording level; 0 to infinity symbol decreases the sound below the recording level, finally to muted sound.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the details above. My blog post on PE12: Audio Features may be useful to you.

  • Cannot get Aperture External Editor to work with CS2

    Hi,
    I've been trying to get Aperture to work with CS2 as the External Editor. After setting the Aperture prefs and trying it out, CS2 opens, but goes into an eternal wait state without the picture ever showing up. After this happens, CS2 no longer works correctly by itself, even after a restart. It again goes into an eternal wait state. Reloading CS2 from scratch makes it work OK. I tried again, but alas trying to get CS2 hooked up to Aperture again repeated the problem and I had to reload CS2 yet again to get it working. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong or how to get this feature working.

    Hi!
    I would suggest the following:
    Insert your Snow Leopard disk, when you are in Windows 7. Install the Bootcamp 3.0 drivers.
    Then restart your computer into Windows 7 and apply the Bootcamp 3.1 update.
    Then, you can try again running Starcraft 2 beta. However, you can not be sure that this beta version
    will be running.
    With regards,

  • How do I configured the PXI-4351 to read thermocouples with Labwindows?

    Hi,
    I have a PXI-4351 datalogger and am trying to configured it to read thermocouples, the terms on the functions don't make any sense since it asks for a transducer group...thermocouples are not transducers. Anyone has a software reference for this...the online help is not enough, i guess i need information on how to read a thermocouple. HELP!!!

    Hi,
    My question is, why do you think Thermocouples are not transducers? In the application with NI 435x, thermocouples are considered transducers just like thermistors, etc.
    1. You may want to take a look at examples here:
    C:\VXIpnp\WinNT\NI435x\examples\CVI
    If you are talking about the NI435x_Configure function, you can find the elaborate help on the function by going to Start>>Programs>>National Instruments 453x>>NI435x Help.
    Please do let me know if you need more help.
    Sincerely,

  • How can I get the keyboard program InKey to work with InDesign?

    I use InKey to type special characters, particularly underlined vowels, for another language. This has worked fine in Microsoft Word with most Unicode fonts. However in InDesign, the underlines do not line up under the letter; or, more commonly, they just display as a pink space or box after the letter. Simply using the Underline format on these letters is not sufficient to be able to check their spelling.

    Oh, cool! I never handle any Mayan stuff in my job, but many of my academic cohort have done so. Mostly Tzotzil.
    Anyhow: your sample font was Times New Roman. If you can't see the combining glyphs, then you're using an out-of-date version of the font, or something else is wrong. . Did you maybe start your work on a contemporary version of Word in WIndows, and now you've shifted to using a Mac with an older version of Office? THere are plenty of nulls in TNR (which are usually codepoints not in Unicode, usually a sign of some kind of hacky workaround on the part ofthe font designer). There should be a real combining macron below right about here, in between the crazy upper Latin and the Greek caps :
    So I'd want to know: what font are you using for this? If not TNR, then I'd suggest Gentium. I might even suggest dropping TNR for Gentium. Judging by your screen name, you may well already be aware of SIL. If not - oh hey, they make fonts for people who are in your shoes! Go check 'em out. The fonts are free, and pretty reliable. And Gentium may already have a precomposed with-line-below glyph for your typesetting needs.
    The Kerning dropdown lets you adjust the spacing between letters in a letter-by-letter way. Selecting all of your text and picking "Metrics" is the way to go here - unless you are a designer who thinks that the capital D is way too far away from the lowercase i, and want to tweak the kerning manually. "Optical" is for large font sizes where body-text-style kerning is too spacious. Avoid using it at small font sizes.
