I have the premier elements 3.0 version.  I have been using it successfully for years and have never

I have been using it for years with success.  Recently I had a proplem with opening the program.  I brought it to Best Buy.  They fixed it and I can make the movies but I can not burn a DVD.  I get a message, " cannot initialize  the DVD burner engine".  Can you help me.

>cannot initialize  the DVD burner engine
That MAY be related to the information in the links below
These notes are (mostly) for Encore, but since the disc burning module inside Premiere Elements is also licensed from Roxio, the steps and ideas are the same for PE
As well as the below, right click the program icon and select Run as Administrator, which is NOT the same thing as running the computer with the Administrator account, and which fixes several "odd" problems... To create a two layer DVD (or a BluRay?), you MUST have Encore set to use the Run as Administrator option

Create a DVD output ISO file (Encore) or set your DVD output to a folder on your hard drive (Encore or Premiere Elements) and then use the FREE http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)

    I have been a loyal customer for years and have a hot spot because internet options are very limited in our rural area.  I have stayed with 10G since the beginning.  Most months I don't use the 10G.  Verizon has no problem with me paying for Data I don't use.  This month my daughter comes home from College and she accidentally uses 24G.....14 over get blind sided with $140.00 in overages.  I called Verizon today......stopped in to the store today......My neighbor told me they waved charges for her one time.  Lots of charges.....But I'm am getting no help.  Not even an offer of a payment plan to help me out.  I went back just 6 months and I have over paid for 19G.....Seems like they would like to help out their loyal customers!!!!     Does anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with them?   We are not wealthy....or I would just pay this and walk away......

    There is a big misconception in what customers believe a cell carrier is obligated to do.
    You pay a set price to use up to that amount of xx data. It makes no difference if you use it to the paid limit or way under. Its like peace of mind when you don't have to worry about a data counter.
    Your daughter used the data, your plan is quite clear of what overage charges are. Why should or would Verizon wireless just forgive the charges because you are a customer? Your daughter used the data, get the money from her. That is the responsible thing to do.
    There is no "I have been a loyal customer so please remove the $120, or $250, or $2,000.00 since I did not mean to use it"
    Your electric company, or gas company or any other company does not remove valid charges. Why should Verizon wireless?
    Just pay the invoice and don't think you are being mistreated because Verizon is a business and not a charity.
    Good Luck

    I cannot sync my iPad or iPhone to iTunes on my Windows 8 PC, even though I have been doing this successfully for years. I have been through all the troubleshooting steps I can find in iTunes, to no avail. Help please?

    I seem to be having the same problem on my Windows 8 laptop... I am able to update my iPod Nano through iTunes but my iPhone is not recognized as a device in iTunes. Have been able to update my iPad until recently. Is this a bug fix that Apple can help with? I'd rather not uninstall all my Apple programs if I can avoid it...

    Hi, edward.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you are having a display issue with your MacBook Pro on your TV.  I would need a little more information regarding how you are connecting your device and what content is being displayed to provide a better answer.  However, here is the best troubleshooting resource to go through when experiencing these symptoms.

    I've been taking screen shots for years and opening them from my desktiop. Suddenly, today, I've lost the ability to open them. I can right click on the picture and do "quicklook", but that's it. They just won't open.
    Similary, if I scan an image and save it as a PDF file in pictures, I'm suddenly not able to open it either!
    Why?

    Move the com.apple.screencapture.plist file out of /username/Library/Preferences/ to the Desktop, log out and back in, and try again.
    BTW, use the default 10 point setting for text. Your choice just wastes screen space.

  • I have been using firefox successfully for some time but now it will not open. I deleted firefox and re installed it but it still will not open. What happened??????

    I have been using firefox for over a year with no problems. All of a sudden it has quit opening. I thought it might be something in my computer so I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it from your web site. It still will not open. What do I do now???????

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    You can use the Tab key to select a search engine on the bottom bar and press Enter to use the search engine to do the search.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Search+bar
    In the current Firefox 34 release there is a new "one-off" search bar.
    This search bar doesn't show the name of the search engine and a logo.
    You can type one letter to make a drop-down list appear where you can see suggestions and see the used search engine and that also has bar at the bottom where you can select other search engines that are enabled via the Search tab in Options/Preferences.
    You can use the Tab key to select one of the other available search engines and press the Enter key to search with the selected search engine.
    Click the search engine icon and click "Change Search Settings" to open the Search tab in Options/Preferences (positioned between Tabs and Content) to select the default search engine and select which search engines to show in the search bar drop-down list that opens when you start typing search terms.

  • Nothing happens when I click on the friefox icon this morning. I have been using it successfully for the past year or so until now. I am worried about uninstalling and reinstalling because i desperatly don't want to lose my bookmarks. Please help!?

    Firefox seems unresponsive today and I can't open a webpage (I'm using explorer to write this). I have followed the advice on the trouble shoot page and nothing has helped or applied to my problem. If I uninstall (to reinstall) I do not want to lose the bookmarks I have built up. I am using windows 7 on a Dell laptop.

    '''I have also been having a problem I thought it was me or my computer'''as I am not really that good with my computer ,Also there are pages that I try to go to hat says pages busy or moved can not connect,but I can from explorer.

  • HT1277 I've been using mac mail for years no trouble. mobleme to icloud has ****ed it all away. now I have no email

    Why Oh Why has my mac mail stoped working. After years its gone tits up. Keeps saying  MobileMe IMAP server “mail.me.com” rejected the password for user blah blah blah. tried everything. son now ive deleted the thing of the computer can this thing be put right or do I have to go back to using some microsoft sh-te. This all happen after the migration to icloud but slowly it went to rubbish and now nothing.
    Im on OSX 10.6.8

    MobileMe IMAP server “mail.me.com” rejected the password
    This is doing EXACTLY what I would expect it to.
    You need Lion for iCloud which it should warn you when you do the me.com/move routine.
    It's still fixable though:

  • I have been using my printer for APPS and now it wont print documents and ordinary printing

    Could you tell me why my photosmart all in one printer will not print normal documents and files from my pc or other device I have just been usong the apps on it to try out but now will not print out anything else like normal things from my computer or ipod or iphone.

    Hi, sandie18.
    Does your iPhone say "No AirPrint Printers Found?"  If you check the printer's status on your computer, is it offline?
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided.

  • I have been using an Iphone for work and downloaded an awesome book, how can I continue to read this on my pc?

    Is there any one out there that can answer my question...

    This is too bad.  I downloaded a book to my PC that I can't seem to open on my PC for the reasons stated above.
    Funny... no where during my sign up / sign in did I see anything really obvious that stated or warned me in advance.  It must be buried in the rules & agreements somewhere.  Too bad... I'm not planning on getting an iPad or any other device soon so I guess iTunes won't be getting much if any business from me. 
    At the risk of sounding like a Luddite,  this is foolishness and a waste of my time and energy.
    Good bye iTunes... there's other services more appropriate for me.
