ImporterProcessServer.exe Stops Working and Crashes the Program

Why does this keep happening?  It's been happening to me with CS3 as well except less frequently.  It happens almost randomly now, with Premiere and Media Encoder.  Whenever it stops working, the encoding fails and/or Premiere crashes shortly after.  I have Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
EDIT: It's happening every time now..  10 seconds after I click to start the queue, this executable fails.

I wasn't talking about SLI or Crossfire.  Still even without it...  3 points: 1) I don't have another computer or space for one.
2) It's quite an expense and isn't a solution you really suggest in a thread like this (Uninstalling FFDShow IS ONE but using one computer just for editing really isn't).  Maybe if I had a business utilizing video editing; but in that case, I'd obviously know to do so.  I'm just a casual user..
3) Either way, it's a huge inconvenience.
I uninstalled FFDShow and when I get back home, I will check to see if it failed again.  One more thing I'll try after that if it still fails and if that doesn't work either, well then, it's something other than FFDShow that's causing the problem.  The thing that I mentioned earlier about it could've been a coincidence (though I doubt it).  Think about this though, if a program requires to be installed all in lonesomeness in order to work properly, is the problem with Adobe or the program that supposedly crashes it?  The FFDShow video decoder is only doing what it's programmed to do.  Adobe should block interferences and isolate itself from other processes.  If you guys have never believed it to be so, try to consider it at least for a short time and not just respond with the common answer you usually give.  I love Premiere, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and many others in the collection - that's why I'm struggling to get this right (but only in a direct method - otherwise it's not worth it in terms of my purposes).  Premiere has always been very unstable with many users whereas Sony Vegas (as an example) isn't.  It has less problems - I just don't like it though.  I've never had 3 consecutive renders that succeeded; this is even before I had any sort of codecs installed besides DivX...

  • Elements Organizer (photoshop elements 11) stops working and shuts the program down.

    I have had Photoshop Elements for several years - first used version 3   then 8 (lost in the 2010 Nashville Flood)  bought 9 last year) - then 11 purchased in Dec 2012.
    I had trouble installing 11 (Premier and photoshop kept locking up in the install process)   finally installed after 8 hours of problems when I did a clean boot uninstalled Virus protection etc.
    Very Frustrating.  Installing on HP Pavilion purchased after the flood - 3gigs ram - windows 7 operating system.  I have over 2000 pics and HD video clips on the hard drive and during the final installation the files were (converted)  according to the install
    I tried the "Online Chat" and was cut off
    I've been unable to use the new Organizer since it shuts down.   Tried several times over several days with the same results.  
    Today I transfered a number of photos (jpeg) from Zip drive to the hard drive - followed the instructions on page 9 of the all too brief booklet and
    - the pics came up on the screen --HOORAY
    UNFORTUNATELY THE CELEBRATION WAS PREMATURE - Organizer stopped AGAIN   HELP!!!

    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Organizer.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete settings file; click Yes.  It will open with default preferences.
    Solution 3:
    Start PSE to get to the Welcome screen.
    Hold down the Shift key and click Organizer . Keep holding down the keys until you see the Catalog window.
    Select your catalog and click Repair.  Select “repair anyway” even if PSE doesn’t find problems.
    Then for good measure, click Optimize.
    If repairing resolves your issue then fine else repeat the above steps, but click New to create a new catalog.  If you’re able to import photos into the new catalog and the Organizer works fine, then problem can be old catalog.
    In that case you can try regenerating the thumbnails.  Do Show All, Edit > Select All, and then Edit > Update Thumbnail.
    Please delete the following files from the location : C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\9.0\Organizer
    psa.prf
    status.dat
    Now go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 9 Organizer\ and run the exe PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe with Admin rights.
    If you are on MAC, you will get the files psa.prf and status.dat at ~/library/app support/adobe/elements organizer/9.0/organizer. Post deleting them try launching Organizer.
    try and let me know your comments.

  • My iTunes isn't working? It keeps coming up with 'iTunes has stopped working' and closes the program?

    My iTunes closes itself everytime I open it after saying 'iTunes has stopped working'. It's really frustrating and I am rubbish with computers so not sure what to do
    can anyone help me?

    Go to your computer's System Tray and try ejecting.  If you can't eject, there is an application that is trying to access your iPod.
    Go to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx and download ProcessExplorer.
    Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555665 and follow the instructions under Resolution.
    Note that this is a good, general process any time you can't access any file.
    In my case an update to RealPlayer installed a program called RecordingManager that was accessing my iPod.

  • Everytime I click on iTunes Store it stops working and closes the whole itunes program

    I have restarted the computer several times, repaired several apple related programs from the control panel, but the problem persists. It is only when I am using the itunes software on my computer too. The regular library works fine and i can even play itunes radio, it only happens when I click the little "Itunes store" rectangle. It loading bar will show it had loaded about 3/4 of the store then it just stops and closes The whole program

    I am having the very same problem with iTunes, I'm running Windows 7 64 bit and started having the problem after the latest update. I just upgraded to the new 5s and was syncing everything to it, so I figured that I would update my itunes software as well. Which I never do after updating one time and had trouble with it on my old laptop and had to rollback to a older version of itunes. I have tried every suggestion that has been posted in the Apple Discussion area and on other websites no luck what so ever. I figured I will wait till Apple comes out with another update and try again. In the post above I am having the exact problem with iTunes.  I'd love to know what thef-ing problem is because this is extremely annoying!

  • I purchased a toshiba laptop in 2013. I also purchased and loaded a word 2013 software package for which I paid $139.99. This software has stopped working and all the valuable documents, presentations, and valuable family photos are now accessible.

    My son is going off to college and uses this computer to apply to colleges, write essays, and verify scholarship statuses. This is a great hindrance for my son as well as our family endeavors. I feel very distraught regarding this issue it has held unbearable
    consequences for my family. I am just an every day mother of 7 who has striven for success and requires the same out of my seven children. My youngest son Isaiah J. Davis, has exemplary character, determined drive, and admirable enthusiasm. For him to miss
    out on any part of his destined future. 
    I also was suppose to receive Word 10 software as a bonus for purchasing the Word 2013 package. Now I'm really regretting utilizing the software system that I learned to love over the 20 year duration of employment within various customer service fields!
    I thought I had a company I could trust and reference to others as a reliable system to utilize.   
    I don't believe this is how customers, especially paying consumers should be treated and trust me I know.

  • Running OS 10.9. When I open Microsoft Word, all my previous Word documents open at once and crashes the program.

    I open a document and all my documents open one after another. i cannot access anything in Microsoft Word. After about 30 seconds of opening documents, Word crashes. This behavior only occurs in Word.

    The images were orinigally just copied & pasted onto the documents from the Internet. There was no linking to pictures. Copy & paste & they have been on those docs for years. Now when I open the same docs up in Pages, it states that the document has been adjusted and that headers, footers and images have been removed. I press ok, open the new Pages version of the doc, and hey presto - all images have gone, text moved around etc.

  • Color adjustment on Multi-cam clip in 10.1 not working and crash the app

    In version prior to 10.1, I can do color adjustment on multi-cam clip and I can see the color change right away.
    However, when I do the same action in 10.1, the change doesn't reflect immediately on the viewer. I need to move like a frame to have the effect shown. Sometimes, FCPX shows an error when I do that action and force me to quit the application.
    Anyone having similar issue?
    Any solution?
