Is Premier Elements 12 working on Mac OS 10.9.2?

I am a professional editor.  My job provides me with a AVID MEDIA COMPOSER.  At home I have a 2008 imac in which I used FCP 6.  Since I upgraded to Maverick, the program is not opening.  The problem, I need to edit a project ASAP.  I am contemplating the Premier Elements as a last minute solution, since the Pro version requires 8GB and mine has only 4. 
My concern is the fact that I have found people complaining about compatibility problems.  I have OSX version 10.9.2
Is Premier Elements 12 work on Mavericks? 
I used 2 cameras.  I will need to match both.  Am I be able to add layers of videos and audios?  Is this program will allow me to isolate the audio of one of the cameras? 
I ask these questions because I tried to use Imovie and it was a total frustration.  I was hoping premier elements would have a interface similar to the pro version, and would allow me to do precise trims, not approximates like Imovie. 
Any professional editor out there who could have a word on Elements, the editing and compatibility with Mavericks?

In both the HD/Library/Application Support and the User/Home/Library/Application Support folders there's an Adobe folder that will have some Bridge support files in it.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Screenshots are from PSE 10
Note 1:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.
Note 2:  editing a RAW file with either PSE or PS creates a new file which must be saved outside of iPhoto, i.e. the Desktop, and imported as a new photo into the iPhoto Library.

    I am in no position to know just how much support you can get from Adobe since Premiere Elements 11 is no longer the current version on these Mac Store purchased products.
    You could try Adobe Chat and see how far you can get. The following link typically proves helpful for that purpose.

  • Adobe premier elements 12 sous mac

    Bonsoir,
    J'ai acheté la version 12 d'adobe premier elements ce week-end et je suis sous mac.
    J'ai un gros soucis avec cet outil car tout mes fichiers sont endommagés et impossible de les ouvrir.
    Je travaille sur une video lourde de 4h que j'ai scindé en une heure et j'ai pu enregistrer normalement sans aucun message d'erreur.
    Une fois enregistré et que je quitte, si je souhaite réouvrir le fichier, c'est impossible.
    J'ai eu ce matin le support technique d'adobe qui m'a conseillé de venir sur le forum car lui n'avait aucune solution.
    Je me pose la question à savoir si cette version est bien fonctionnelle sous mac car je travail avec adobe elements depuis la version 4.0 et je n'ai jamais eu aucun soucis, là je me retrouve bloquée.
    Avez-vous déja rencontré ce type de problème ? si oui quelle est la solution?
    En vous remerciant,
    Christelle

    Bonjour Romano,
    Pour répondre à vos différentes questions.
    J'ai un Mac Book Pro OS X 10.6.8
    Version du noyau : Darwin 10.8.0 avec extension 64 bits donc il tourne bien à
    pleine puissance sans aucun problème.
    Mes fichiers sources de mon projet sont des fichiers .VOB, il y en 4 que j'ai
    directement importé dans ma ligne vidéo.
    Je n'ai eu aucun problème tout le long de mon projet pour enregistrer et fermer.
    Le problème arrive quand je souhaite réouvrir mon projet il apparaît donc comme
    endommagé et impossible de l'ouvrir.
    A. Les réglages généraux de mon projet sont les suivants :
    Mode de montage : QuickTime DV PAL
    Bas de temps : 25,00 image/s
    Taille de l'image 720, horizontalement 576
    Rapport L/H en pixels : D1/DV PAL (1,0940)
    Trames : trame supérieure en premier
    Format d'affichage : code temporel 25 i/s
    Format acquisition : DV
    B/C. Adobe premier éléments est dans les applications du mac et crée
    automatiquement des sous dossiers dans mes documents dans un fichier nommé
    "Adobe". L'ouverture du logiciel se fait noramelemnt.
    Je n'ai aucune restriction d'espace dans mes dossiers.
    D. Je ne déplace aucun des médias liés au projet, tout est dans le même dossier au même emplacement.
    J'ai fait un test avec la version 10 d'adobe, j'ai crée un projet, importer mes médias et
    j'ai pu réouvrir mon fichier sans problème.
    Je pense réellement que la version 12 a un soucis avec les fichiers de type .vob
    Merci pour votre aide

  • Adobe Premier Elements 12 on MAC

    Can I transfer my Adobe Preimer Elements 12 from my Windows PC to a new MAC OX X 10.9.2

    adjhk
    Thanks for the reply.
    You should not be able to use those Premiere Elements 12 Windows downloaded installation files on the Mac.
    How long ago did you purchase Premiere Elements 12 Windows from Adobe. If purchased from Adobe, you should be able to get your money back within 30 days of purchase.
    Then you can consider what next, for example, purchase the boxed packaged product from an authorized reseller. Adobe sells only the download, not the boxed packaging, for Premiere Elements 12. The boxed packaging will contain a Premiere Elements 12 installation disc for Windows and one for Mac.
    If you need to double check any of this information, you could try to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat to discuss Downloading, Installing, and Setting Up. To do that, click on the following link, and, when it opens, click on the question "Still Need Help? Contact Us." to bring up the Adobe Chat.

  • Premier Elements 13 on MAC. trying to use motion tracking. immediately get error "the media file seems to have an invalid entry in the catalog. Please rename it for use."

    Anyone resolved this issue?  What is the "catalog".  All I did was import a file (1080/60) and get started.  Everything else seems to work fine.

    Assuming you're not shooting in 3D mode, I'm not sure why this is happening.
    As long as you're not shooting in 3D mode, this is a standard AVCHD camcorder, which I've done lots of motion tracking with.
    Since you manually copied the file from SD card rather than getting the media using Premiere Elements' tools, it is quite possible you grabbed the wrong file. Try this: Plug your camcorder (with SD card in the cam) into your computer via USB and set the camcorder to VTR/play. Then go to Premiere Elements' Add Media/From Flip or Camera and use that tool to get the video from the camera to your computer.
    This should resolve your invalid catalog entry issue.

  • Where is the green screen key in Premier Elements 10 for Mac?

    Anybody know where the green screen key feature is?  Or how to edit green screen videos?  Plenty of tutorials on YouTube but I can't find the Green Screen effect.  Thanks.

    There are some PrE Effects, that are only available on the PC, though not for the Mac, but I do not have a list handy,
    I do not recall if Green Screen Keying might be one of them.
    Perhaps our MOD, Steve Grisettin, who is fully X-platform, can comment.

  • Mac vs Windows functionality on Photoshop & Premier Elements

    Hello,
    I am very interested in purchasing both Photoshop and Premier Elements from the Mac App store however that was until I did some further investigation and found the following on Adobe's site "(Windows only) Create a slide show in Photoshop Elements 6.0 or later with captions, transitions, effects, music, narration, graphics, and titles, and then bring the slide show into Adobe Premiere Elements for further editing or to burn to DVD. Or, bring individual photos into Adobe Premiere Elements and create the slide show there." statement. This functionality is my sole purpose of purchasing the product. I am a Mac owner running Lion and I am keen to hear feedback from other Mac users who can perform this functionality (and how).
    My particular interest is that I have a slideshow that I want to put onto DVD.  I want to align songs to specific photos. For example, I have a song I want to play over my first 10 photos, then another song for a set of 5 etc, all in the one chapter so to speak.  Can anyone help? I'm finding iDVD very limited in audio allocation to groups of slides.

    Great, thank you all for your valuable input. 
    I will play around in Garage Band (as demonstrated to me by a very helpful Next Byte staff member today) and iMovie and see what I come up with. In the meantime, my aim is to eventually purchase Adobe Photoshop Elements as that will at least give me some more editing options than is currently available in iPhoto.
    Again, thank you all for taking the time to reply to my query.

  • Styles in Premier Elements 12 (Mac) isn't working at all (Text).  Any ideas please?  Thanks.

    I'm using Premier Elements 12 on a Mac (version 10.9.4) and Styles isn't responding at all.  There are no problems with any of the other text options.  Can anyone help me with this please?

    rosalie gibb
    This is an old story.
    There is a Text Style issue only in the Expert workspace of Premiere Elements 12.
    Adobe remedied that situation by going from 12 to the 12.1 Update via an opened project's Help Menu/Update. Have you been there and done that?
    Before the Adobe 12.1 Update, the workaround was to do the Text Style in the Quick workspace and work between the two workspaces.
    Please let us know if that 12.1 works for you.
    Thanks.

  • Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements after Mac upgrade to Yosemite 10.10 on iMac

    Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements 12 after the Mac upgrade to OS X Yosemite 10.10 on iMac. I have had a number of issues with software and things after upgrading to OS X Yosemite 10.10 and even 10.10.1.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled both PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 a number of times and everything goes fine until its ready to launch and then you get an error message. Numerous uninstalled and reinstalls don't removing the problem.  Strangely enough  PSE 11 still appears to boot up and I never owned Premier Elements 11 so I don't know if it will start. I thought with Apple dropping its Apeture software and greater integration of iPhoto and Apeture files into Lightroom 5.7 all would be harmonious between these two players. Im not sure where Adobe wants us to go it recently removed the plugin to allow you to update files from LR to Adobe Revel, whats up with that. I now own two version of Adobe software that no longer work with my Mac and now way of uploading pictures from Lightroom to Revel. Needless to say I am pretty reluctant to sign on to a subscription of Creative Cloud with long term financial obligations when I can't even get my current Adobe software to work independently much less integrate with Lightroom. Frustrated with it all!

    Get rid of 'put disks to sleep when possible' and you may see a dramatic improvement (not necessarily a cure).
    That specific problem is a multiple-Processor (including graphics processor) problem, where one of the processors lost track of whether it should be responding to interrupts. You may have a Hardware problem.

  • Adobe Premier Element 11 not working on Mavericks....

    After upgrading Mavericks OS, my adobe premier element 11 purchased at Apple Store is not working and keep on crashing. Any solution?

    1st - exactly which operating system?
    2nd - From the Premiere Elements Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042180
    •You MUST use an account with Administrator Privileges to run Premiere Elements
    •(Doing Run as Administrator http://forums.adobe.com/thread/969395 [says Encore and also for "All" versions of Premiere] will sometimes fix "odd" errors)
    •What version of Premiere Elements? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Elements 12 with the 12.0.1 update).
    •What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.9.4"---not just "Mac"
    •Has this ever worked before?  If so, do you recall any changes you made to Premiere Elements, such as adding Plug-ins, brushes, etc.?  Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers; or installing/uninstalling any programs?
    •Have you installed any recent program or OS updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
    •What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
    •If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
    •What were you doing when the problem occurred?
    •What other software are you running?

    Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
    Do a backup,  preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors.  Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

  • Premier Elements 4 (Mac) download location

    Since Premier Elements 7 is not out yet for Mac, I want to try PE4. I can't find the download link for this. What is the dl link for Premier Elements 4 (mac) trial?

    Christopher,
    I understand. That's why I mentioned the steep price. It's a wonderful program (I've been using CS2 for some years now and love it), but only viable for someone doing NLE work professionally, or a very dedicated hobbiest with deep pockets.
    Other than the dedicated Mac programs, like FCP, I do not know which other NLE's are ported for the Mac. I believe that the iMovie thru FCP group have the majority of the market share.
    Now that Macs (certain flavors) offer PC compatibility with many programs, there might be other options. Unfortunately, I do not know what works, what does not and what might be made to work. In the Premiere Pro forums, there are now a lot of Mac folk, using all sorts of X-platform and adapted PC programs. There might well be people there, who can give you more, and more correct info. Back when CS3 was current, Adobe had the forum split for PC & Mac users. In CS4 they are combined. Still, a post to the CS4 forum might yield suggestions for you, other than PP CS4. I wish that I was more knowledgable, regarding all things Mac, but am just an old PC-guy. I do know that a lot of users really like FCP & FC Express though. The "Express" version might offer what you want at a more palatable price.
    Good luck,

  • Premier Elements 13 Organizer Works. Editor doesn't. Log in doesn't work

    I downloaded and installed Premier Elements 13 last night. In using it today, Organizer works, but when I select Editor, I am required to log in to my account to activate it. When I do so, then I eventually reach the agreement to terms page, accept it but Editor still doesn't work. Contacted Chat and had an extremely humourous but extremely frustrating chat before the chat stopped working (??????)  Here is a copy and paste of the chat up until Chat stopped working:

    Gordon Stogre: That was last night
    Gordon Stogre: Why?
    Amit Kumar: Download and install itagain from this link.
    Gordon Stogre: It took about 2 hours to set it up on a fast internet connection
    Gordon Stogre: Why should I have to do it again. It is already set up and installed.
    Gordon Stogre: The problem is with the Editor. The Organizer works correctly.
    Amit Kumar: There is some issue with the software.
    Gordon Stogre: What is the issue. Please explain
    Amit Kumar: Some files did not download that's why it is not working.
    Gordon Stogre: Are you saying that the Adobe file download is faulty?
    Amit Kumar: Yes
    Gordon Stogre: Everything downloaded correctly and it installed correctly
    Amit Kumar: Ok
    Amit Kumar: One moment while I transfer you to the specialist that can assist you.
    Gordon Stogre: I want a refund on what I paid for Premier 13. This is ludicrous that I should have to spend this much of my time downloading and installing.. I want it free now.
    Gordon Stogre: This is absolutely ridiculous that Adobe uploaded a faulty software. My time is extremely valuable.
    Amit Kumar: I have arranged refund for this product.
    Gordon Stogre: I have spent a total of 6.5 hours downloading, setting up and installing and then trying to get it working.
    Gordon Stogre: But I still want to use this product with the properly working software. Is my licence still valid if I download and reinstall it?
    Amit Kumar: I have arranged refund for this product now.
    Gordon Stogre: WILL I STILL BE ABLE TO USE IT ????
    Gordon Stogre: Will my licence that I purchased for Premier Elements 13 still be valid???
    Gordon Stogre: I want to use it but am very frustrated and annoyed by the problem.
    Amit Kumar: You will not be able to use it.
    Gordon Stogre: I NEED TO USE IT !!!
    Gordon Stogre: Do you understand?
    Gordon Stogre: I want a refund and an operating version of Premier 13.
    Amit Kumar: But I have arranged refund for this product now.
    Gordon Stogre: Please escalate this to your supervisor if you are not able to do this.
    Gordon Stogre: Or I will publish this all over internet
    Amit Kumar: Would you mind waiting for 2 - 3 minutes while I research on this issue?
    Gordon Stogre: I will wait
    Gordon Stogre: 6:13 local time now. About 9 minutes since you asked me to wait...............
    This continued on until 6:39 when the supervisor told me he was transferring it to "the group that could help me with this issue"  Then the chat shut down.

    At the forum level, there is no instantaneous reply. And, there is no "how long before I get someone to post in my thread" expectation.
    This is not Adobe. Rather user to user. Although I personally try to see that every thread has a viable reply before the end of the day, there are no guarantee how long it will take for a thread to be answered with some information that may actually help you resolve your particular issue. I am not affiliated with Adobe in anyway. Just a user with an overactive troubleshooting gene.
    From what you wrote, you no longer have a purchased product. You demanded your money back from Adobe via its Adobe Chat, and you got what you demanded, that is, your money back request put into action. So, I am not sure what you are left to work with.
    If you purchased from an online download from Adobe and the install apparently did not take, then it is not unreasonable to be asked to uninstall/reinstall the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled. That may or may not help. There are certain troubleshooting drills that need to be followed as one systematically goes through the progress of ruling factors in or out of the problem equation.
    Part of the drill might have included:
    a. What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running on?
    b. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus installed?
    c. Are you running the program from a User Account with Administrative Privileges and with Run As Administrator applied to the desktop icon?
    d. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card? How many video cards/graphics cards does your computer use, 1 or 2?
    e. Is your computer connected to the Internet?
    f. Is the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer along with Premiere Elements 13?
    g. Other
    But, none of the above is going to be of use if you do not have a purchased copy of Premiere Elements 13 to work with. You need to sort out your Adobe situation with Adobe.
    We will be watching for your progress. We want you to succeed.

  • I am attempting to upgrade from Adobe Premier Elements 9 to Adobe Premier Elements 13 after using 13's trial version for a few weeks.  I am unable to find where and how to do this without losing the project I have been working on.  Please help?

    I am attempting to upgrade from Adobe Premier Elements 9 to Adobe Premier Elements 13 after using 13's trial version for a few weeks.  I am unable to find where and how to do this without losing the project I have been working on.  Please help?

    Vere Clarke
    Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and Premiere Elements 13 are standalone products.
    So, you can have both on the same computer, but only open one for your work.
    The classical recommendation is to finish a project in the version in which it was created since there
    is no guarantee that a project from an earlier version will open in the later version. Probably will, but
    no guarantees. And, when you do explore this, do it from a copy of the earlier version project. Once you
    take the earlier version project into a later version one, you cannot go back to edit the later version edited
    project in the earlier version program.
    If you have both versions (9 and 13) on the same computer and you have not moved, deleted, renamed any of the version 9's files/folders,
    right click the saved closed Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project file, select Open With, and then Adobe Premiere Elements 13.
    (Your 9.0/9.0.1 saved closed project file should be found in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0.)
    Please review and consider. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Thank you.
