How to prepare for install of Premiere Elements 10 and Photoshop 10

HI everyone - just rec'd the disks and want to prepare my pc as best as possible before installing. I have a HP Pavilion dv7 running Windows 7 64 bit
8gb ram, 640 gb hard drive
Performace info tells me:
intel core i5 CPU M 480 @ 2.67 GHz, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6370,
GAming graphics - 3571 MB total available graphics memory, dedicated graphics memory is 512 mb
Primary Hard disk 387 GB free
performace score is 5.0
I have run Advanced System Care5, spybot search and destroy, malwarebytes anit-malware, AVG free and everything looks good.
Any other suggestions to run or check beofre I do the install? I am trying to prevent any issues like I've had with Pinnacle Studio Ulitmate 14 and Windows MM  in the past - virtual memory problems(with MM) and lots of crashes (with Pinnacle)....
Thanks in advance,
Maureen

Add at least a 2nd 7200rpm hard drive for your video files
My 3 hard drives are configured as...
1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
2 - 320Gig data for Win7 swap file and video project files
When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folder and files
3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (*)
(*) for 4 drives, drive 3 all source files & drive 4 all output files
Search Microsoft to find out how to redirect your Windows swap file
http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing
Steve Grisetti in the Premiere Elements forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856208 and Jim Simon in the Premiere Pro forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856433 use USB externals for editing
A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

  • We tried to install Adobe Premiere Element and it keeps saying the E drive is empty.

    Adobe Premiere Elements 13.1 keeps saying the E drive is empty.  We got around it by changing the name to another letter.  Why did it do this?

    ireneo
    Please explain your question a bit further. Is the following your scenario?
    1. You installed Adobe Premiere Elements 13 (on what computer operating system?) Assumed from installation disc and to the default location on the Local Drive C.
    2. You are inserting your installation disc into the burner tray, the burner being the E drive? And, you get a message about empty E drive instead of the AutoPlay for
    you to click on to start the installation path?
    There is a known problem with Premiere Elements 13/13.1 where installation of this version generates a No Disc error. The fix for that is deleting or disabling the OldFilm.AEX
    file in the path
    Program Files
    Adobe
    Adobe Premiere Elements 13
    Plug-ins
    Common
    NewBlue
    and in the NewBlue Folder is the OldFilm.AEX file that you delete or disable by renaming it from OldFilm.AEX to OldFilm.AEXOLD.
    What type of Blu-ray DVD burner or DVD/CD burner was involved in this situation - internal or external?

  • Is there a path for projects between Premiere Elements and Premiere Pro?

    As an educator who has been teaching FCP7 for several years, we are preparing to purchase new equipment and most likely go to the Adobe Suite.  However, I want to know if Premiere Elements is functionally similar to Premiere Pro, and if it would be a good option for beginning students prior to moving to Premiere Pro.

    rich experience
    Premiere Elements is an excellent program and is in many respects not a second citizen to Premiere Pro.
    The principles of the programs are the same. And, although some Premiere Elements features might not be as full as Premiere Pro, they
    can get most of the tasks done.
    Is this your first experience with an Adobe product in your teaching facilities?
    If you have not, please work through or have your IT people work through the program permissions angle on this matter.
    Premiere Elements works from a User Account with Administrative Privileges. With volume licensing in a school or company
    environment, this can create problems.
    Another consideration is the level of support help to expect from Adobe once you have purchased the product.
    At the Premiere Elements level, often you are directed by Adobe to Ask the Community (us, user to user) and in some limited ways Adobe Chat.
    I have noted that Premiere Pro support channels are far more "enhanced".
    Will someone be looking at the tryout before purchase to assure the compatibility of the product with the computer environment and project goals?

  • Premiere Elements and Photoshop Organizer Crashes

    Soon after starting the Organizer in either Premier Elements or Photoshop Essentials 8, it crashes, with a crash report to send to Adobe.  I am using Wwindows 7.  Microsoft says the program is incompatible.  It worked fine until Adobe did an update to it.  This happened some time ago, but I have just been putting up with not using the Organizer.  I would like to have it fixed.  Any suggestions?

  • Can I install both Premiere Elements and Premiere Pro on my computer?

    I use elements but I want to learn premiere pro so I just installed it but in the process elements was deleted.  I still need elements to finish projects I've started in elements.  Is there a way to have both programs on my computer and use both elements when I want and premiere pro when I want?
    Is it possible to open an elements file using premiere pro CS6?  I tried but it didn't work.
    Thank you.

    ATR,
    I agree completely.
    Without every version, over the last 10 years, of each program, it's almost impossible to tell a poster, "Yeah, that will work... "
    It's the same with Premiere (not Elements, but the program before the "Pro" designation) and Premiere Pro. I inherited a big Project, originally started in Premiere 6.5 on a Mac. I had PrPro CS 2 on a PC, and all of the Project files Opened very well. IIRC, there were a half-dozen Transitions, that I did not have, but PrPro gave me the name of the Transition, plus the TimeCode of where it was used. All I had to do was change the missing one to Cross-Dissolve (do not know why the original editor deviated from that?), and all was good. However, when Adobe went with the Pro version, it was ONLY ported for the PC - no Mac support at all. Then, with PrPro CS 3, X-platform support WAS added. If a Mac user had an earlier Premiere, or Premiere Pro Project, before CS 3, they had to find a PrPro PC-user, with PrPro CS 3, who would Open that earlier file, then Save_As, so that they could Open it on their Macs, with later versions. Real "hands across the aisle" thing. We PC guys helped many Mac users to get them up and editing, but it was tough to explain all the ins-and-outs to them. Lot of confusion in those days. We do not see it that often now, as Premiere, up through version 6.5 are fading into history.
    Also, to add to that confusion, Adobe shook things up, with the release of Premiere 7.0, also officially called Premiere Pro 7.0, but also Premiere Pro 1.0, at the same time. Most countries got only PrPro 1.0, but not all. Even some Adobe Staff folk do not realize that there were three, coincidental names for basically the same program. And, as that was the point of transition to PC-only, puzzle over what version a user really has. I have had a few state that there was NO Premiere Pro 7.0, and that it was ONLY Premiere 7.0, or Premiere Pro 1.0. I have seen the boxes that show that some folk DID get a program officially named Adobe Premiere Pro 7.0. Just a bit of arcane history.

  • How to prepare for 1Z0-204, 1Z0-225 and 1z0-226 certifications?

    Hi everyone,
    I am done with the instructed led training from Oracle University for Oracle SCM Apps(ESSENTIALS, INV, PUR, OM).
    I would like to take the basic certifications like 1Z0-204 (ESSENTIALS), 1Z0-225 (INV and PUR) and 1Z0-226 (INV and OM) for further growth opportunities. Since i am totally new to SCM field, i would like to know if the materials(Student Guides) given by Oracle University would be sufficient for my preparation or should i have some implementation exp before i take up these exams.
    Please note i am not asking for dumps, just want to know if the materials given by ORACLE UNIVERSITY are enough for my preparations. Are questions based out of those slides or do they come from implementation exp as well. Seniors who have recently taken up these exams, please guide me.
    I already have 4 yrs exp in I.T. . would be shifting to Oracle SCM Apps in the near future.
    Thanks,

    Krishnakumar NI never attempted those exams but I can speak of my experience with 11i/R12 Sysadmin, Apps DBA, and 9i/10g/11g OCP certification that most questions are from the student guides. However, having experience with implementation might make it easier for you.

  • How do I install Adobe Premiere Elements when I get this error message...?

    I have bought the DVD bundle of Adobe Premiere Elements and Photoshop. They both come on a single DVD. When I attemp to install Premiere I get the error message... "This installation package is not supported by this processor type. Contact your product vendor".
    My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5536, AMD Athlon, 64 x 2 dual-core, 2.1 GHz. I bought it in 2009 and it runs with Vista.
    Is my laptop too old or not powerfull enough? Or is there a problem with Vista? Please help.

    johnfallan61982
    Your problem with the Premiere Elements 11 download blows the following question away, but I will ask it anyway.
    If you purchased the bundled Photoshop Elements 10 Premiere Elements 10, how many discs did you receive. It should have been five. And, with Windows Vista 32 bit and Premiere Elements 10 in the equation, you should have been using the disc labelled 1 of 5. Was all of that the case?
    What service pack do you have for your Windows Vista 32 bit? And, do you know if your laptop's processor has SSE2 support?

    A blank drive needs to be formatted first, you do that hold c boot (or hold option key boot) from the 10.6 install disk (or Lion USB)

I am thinking it is something easy I am missing. Do I simply shoot a video of my computer screen as I am navigating the site, or can my computer record in video format what I am doing on the screen? I am using Vista on a Toshiba laptop.

    It's been a while but, in the past, I've used both the free 'CamStudio' and 'Wink' software (I think I found Wink the better of the two).
    Adobe also selll their own video capture software 'Captivate'.
    Or here's a whole page of video capture software: http://capture.software.informer.com/download-capture-video-and-record-screen-action-in-av i/.
