Install old version of Premiere Pro in Windows 8.1

I have an old version of Premiere Pro. The disc just says Adobe Premiere Pro and has the picture of the horse on it. It also says Windows XP. It previously worked on a PC running Windows XP (I think SP2 but cant remember). I would now like to install it on a laptop running Window 8.1. It goes through the install process then gives a message about DirectX. You can then choose to continue anyway but it doesn't install properly. I have tried installing it in compatibility mode but it still didn't work. Can anyone help? I need step by step instructions as I don't understand anything too technical! Many thanks

If DirectX is the hold-up, you will need to run the DX legacy installer from Microsoft to install the DX 9 runtimes. Otherwise I don't think you will have much luck on that one... The versions with the horse are pre-CS and that is like 15 years ago. Even if it installs, you may not be able to actually work with it because e.g. the program may not be able to invoke file dialogs to actually open projects and there may be any number of other compatibility issues.

  • How do I get my old version of Premiere Pro back on my system?  I don't have time to relearn 2014 CC

    I don't appreciate these forced updates -- I'm in the middle of a project and just don't have time to relearn new software idiosyncracies such as not being able to edit video transitions in effects control tab.  Also , what happened to all my presets that were installed in my former version of ProCC

  • Hi, I can't install premiere pro trial version, probably because my Windows 7 is a 32bits edition. Is there any solution or 32b version of Premiere Pro to download?

    Hi,
    I can't install premiere pro trial version, probably because my Windows 7 is a 32bits (x86) edition. Is there any solution or 32b version of Premiere Pro to download?

    I am sorry , there is no 32 bit version for both Premiere pro cc as well as After Effects cc
    You may try CS 4 version , but it is not completely tested with Windows 7 OS. .

  • In an older computer should I install an older version of Premiere Pro for DV editing?

    Hi all.  I will try to make sense out of my question.  I have a Pentium D, 3.60GHz 4gig ram windows 7 64bit computer.   Installed I have Premiere Pro CS5.  It seems to be working fine for DV editing since I do basic stuff (couple of filters, etc.). I get no drop frames and playback from the time line is decent.  But I see that on the different versions of Premiere Pro, each higher version asks for higher system requirements, so I would like to know If I install on that same system lets say, Premiere CS4 or CS3, will it run faster since the system requirements are lower, or it doesn't matter since I will be doing the same thing that is editing DV material.   Are the extra system requirements for example in CS6 mainly for the new high definition codecs that are supported, extra effects etc?  If I install in the future CS6 will I have  then lower performance that I have today for editing DV?  Thank you all in advanced for your insights on this.

    I'd like to see a comparison with say CS2. I tend think that your current software might run marginally faster. I warn you against going to CS6, as it seems to have higher computing overhead thus far, and there has been some issue with DV editors connecting to dv devices. I don't see where it could help your dv workflow very much.
    But Dude.....,Pentium D, 3.60GHz?  You could build a new PC funded solely by the electricity that you would save over 18 months. Combine that with savings from not upgrading to CS6 and join us all here in modern computing land. Editing HD natively (It will happen for you) without rendering previews, exporting to DVD and mp4 in minutes instead of hours. It is so worth it. Is this your work's or your church's system where its just not your choice to upgrade? Here at work we were finally able to upgrade to CS5 capable systems 2 years ago, and HD material had already become a big workflow issue with us, even though we were primarily working with DV. I also had to upgrade my home system to take on any freelance editing. You can rock with any modern i5 or i7 quad core, 12gb memory, and a gtx card. You could also get and AMD 6 or 8 core and maybe save a little $ there.
    I just wouldn't ever consider upgrading the software before that rig.

  • Difficulty downloading trial version of premiere pro?

    I am trying to download the trial version of premiere pro. I clicked on the adobe site to download the software and up pops a creative cloud window that says an update is available. It look like I have no choice but to install the Creative Cloud update before I can install premiere pro. However, once I click to install the update, the update starts installing but then it freezes at either the 3% mark or the 21% mark. My internet is working, though it might be a bit slow. How can I either skip the creative cloud update to just download premiere pro trial version or how can I prevent the update from freezing?

    Thanks for the suggestion! However, I just bought Premiere Pro and moved to a place with better internet connection. It seemed to work then..

  • CS4 Premiere Pro Monitor Window, Again

    I posted several days ago about the problems I'm having with displaying video in Encore and Premiere Pro in CS4.  This is incrediblyl frustrating because my older versions of these products always worked fine, and still do.
    I've come across an insight:
    AVI files that were created by using "export movie" in my older version of Premiere Pro give me a variety of problems when trying to display them in the monitor window of the CS4 version of Premiere Pro.   For example, the monitor window might be teal when I first move a clip to a sequnce.  Then I click on the mintor window with my mouse and the teal is replaced by the correct image from the clip.  But then I click the "play" icon below the monitor window and it becomes mostly teal, but with a few hash marks just to the right of center.  At other times, the display has been different.
    AVI files that were created by using the codec of Microsoft Video 1 seem to display fine in the CS4 version of Premiere Pro.  I approached this two different ways.  In one example, I took a clip that displayed fine in my older version of Premiere but looked like a mess in the CS4 version, and I used VirtualDub to created a converted version of it using the codec Microsoft Video 1.  PPro CS4 was able to import and display the version created within VirtualDub with the Microsoft Video 1 codec perfectly.  Then I took another clip that had display problems in Premiere Pro CS4, and used the "export" feature within Premiere Pro CS4 to export it to AVI, using the Microsoft Video 1 codec. I then imported that output file into Premier Pro CS4, and that too displayed perfectly within Premiere Pro.
    My system config:
    CS4 version of Premiere Pro, fully registered.  This was an "upgrade" version, installed on a machine that had an older version of CS4
    Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3 as operating system
    Sony Vaio laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo CPU
    2.93 gig of RAM
    I tried going to Sony's web site in search of updated display drivers, but that section of the site appears to not be working.  I also tried going through the control panel's device driver dialogue and clicking "update driver" and that didn't work either.  So I'm stuck with the driver versions that I currently have.
    But I wonder, are my device drivers really the problem?  I'm skeptical, because of the fact that AVI files created using the Microsoft Video 1 codec don't have the problem.
    So how can I get the CS4 version of Premiere Pro to properly display AVI files created by my older version of Premiere Pro?  I really don't want to do a labor-intensive effort of converting all my clips in all my projects to Microsoft Video 1 just to work around the poor quality assurance that appears to have been done by Premiere Pro CS4's development team.

    In Premiere Pro CS4, if I pick the dialogue for File > Export > Media, it takes me to an "Export Settings" window which contains an option to select which codec to use.  On my computer, there are 13 choices, including Cinepak Codec by Radius, DV (24p Advanced), DV NTSC, DV PAL, Indeo Video 5.10, Intel Indeo(R) Video R3.2, Intel Indeo Video 4.5, Intel IYUV Codec, Microsoft RLE, Microsoft Video 1, Microsoft Windows Media Video 9, Uncompressed UYVY 422 8-bit, and V210 10-bit YUV.
    I don't know which codec my older version of Premiere Pro uses to generate AVI files when I use its "Export Movie" option.  I just know that whatever it does, ends up displaying horribly in the CS4 version opf Premiere Pro.  However, using either VirtualDub or Premiere Pro CS4 to rewrite the AVI file using the Microsoft Video 1 codec results in an AVI file that the CS4 version of Premiere Pro can play back without problem.
    The distortion in the monitor window is different from one clip to the next.  I'll post a few examples.  In all cases, the AVI's were generated by the older version of Premiere Pro, using the "Export Movie" option.
    Example Number 1
    While playback is occurring (note that this one shows up as salmon-colored, which is another thing that has happened on a number of my attempts with other clips as well):
    However, if I click on the square icon to make playback stop, the colors in the monitor window display properly when it stops.  In this example, the clip is black and white, and here's how it looks (ie, the correct colors) after I have clicked on stop.
    I'll post another message showing examples from another clip.

  • Get older version of premiere pro??

    For a long time I have been trying to use Premier Pro with an Intel HD graphics 4000, and only now realise (from other websites, rather than from Adobe) that it is simply not compatible. Considering that this is a relatively new computer I'm really disappointed as Premiere Pro is one of the main reasons I invested in creative cloud. Is there anything I can do, or can you issue me with an older version of premiere pro that will be compatible?

    >can you issue me
    While there are some Adobe staff members who answer questions here, this is mainly a user to user forum with the space provided by Adobe... this is not Adobe support

  • Newest version of premiere pro is not opening a project because "it was saved on a  newer version"

    I have been cutting on my laptop - using up to date creative cloud version of premiere pro. Laptop too slow - so rented a desktop until i finish this gig. I downloaded the latest creative cloud aps onto the desktop including latest cc premiere pro. HOWEVER, it will not open the other project because, it says in an error message, 'the project was saved in a NEWER version of premier pro" but this version i only downloaded THIS MORNING, it's up to date. How can it have been saved on a newer version?
    Help me!
    Thanks

    super weird - the project I saved it in was made indeed on 8.1.0 (81) build - is it changing the version it downloads based on the computer? The laptop is a 2011 and the desktop (8 cores with super fast video card) is 2008… so is it taking that into account and only sending this computer an older version that it thinks it deserves?
    Wait - a mo - if I manually go into the updates window it DOES allow me to update the software - but the adobe download manager insists the thing is up to date… I'll let you know what happens - thank you!

  • The project was saved in a newer version of Premiere Pro and cannot be opened in this version

    I edited a project on CC on one computer and saved it on my external. My friend took the same project to edit it on her computer under her own name and licence. Both of us recently upgraded to CC. But the same project that worked a few hours back on Premiere Pro CC, does not work now also on Premiere Pro CC and I received a message saying: The project was saved in a newer version of premiere pro and cannot be opened in this version." Can you please help us.?

    Hi alexxxkid,
    You should be able to import the xml into an earlier version.
    Backward compatibility has never been there with Premiere and it is always recommended not to update in the middle of a project.
    As far as the crash is concerned, please tell me more about it so that i can help you to the best of my knowledge.
    Thanks,
    Rameez
