Merging "projects" into one

Another problem I cannot seem to find an answer to.  I have created 8 seperate projects (using Premiere Elements) to make sure I did not loose any time cut off any single projects.  I wanted to merge these "projects" into 4 seperate projects.  However, when I try to import the projects (prel) into the organize window using "get media & PC files" PE says it does not support the file type.  WHY NOT?  PE wrote it, why doesn't PE support it???   If I am doing something wrong or if there is a procedure I am not aware of please advise.  Thanks.

With your 8 sub-Projects, I'd think about naming conventions to make things very easy on you. Given 8 total, with 2x each of 4 combined Projects, I'd look at something like 01_Film_01.AVI, where the first is your Project 01 and the second number is where it falls in that Timeline. Here, it would be first. Now, if you know your sub-Projects' names and your combined Projects' names intimately, this might be overkill.
When I am Exporting for Import to Encore, I make sure to accurately name each Sequence (think mini-Projects in PrE0 in PrPro and then make sure that I rename each Button in my Menus. When I get to Encore, I know that Button "Liz_at_Home" will Link to "Liz_at_Home" in the Timeline Panel. Keeps things simple.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - one of the great features in PrPro is the Sequences, which are like mini-Projects in one Project. I'd love to see this trickle down to PrE, as it would do just what you, and many others, want - combine Projects.

  • Combining multiple projects into one?

    from a recent vacation i have imovie projects for each city, 6 in all, each being between 2:45 and 5 minutes long. i did each in its own project to keep clips organized better, but when the final project plays, i want the cities to run one after the other, without kicking out to the menu everytime. basically what im asking is is there a way to merge these seperate projects into one, or do i have to compress each and then make a totally new imovie from that?

    welcome phiphika to the  board…
    in terms of convenience, I would indeed export/share all 6 movies.
    to tape, or as Quicktime/FullQuality…
    both methods create a lossless copy of your final movie(s).
    in step II, import all 6 project into a new iM project, as said above, you don't loose ay quality with that back'n forth copying... only some time ;-)… you can set then chapter markers etc....
    besides, your workflow is as mine on larger projects: not 678 clips into one monstrous project of some dozends Gigabytes, just segments…

  • I have iTune accounts under two separate Apple IDs.  Can I merge them into one account under one ID?

    I have iTune accounts under two separate Apple IDs.  Can I merge them into one account under one ID?  I have purchased music and video in both.

    No, it is not possible to merge accounts.  Choose one as the primary account and keep a local backup of all purchases so you don't get into the mess where you encounter a 90 day freeze on re-downloading past purchases from multiple accounts.

  • I have two apple Id accounts how do I merge them into one account

    I have two apple Id accounts how do I merge them into one account

    you can't merge Apple ID's
    From the FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

    I ahve two itunes accounts with different Apple ID's.  How can I merge them into one account?

    Apple has no provisions for this. You cannot merge multiple Apple ID's into one ID. Content is always tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase it.

  • I Movie 09 can I combine projects into one project?

    Can I combine 3 seperate IMovie projects into one so I can burn a short film to DVD?
    I had three different people shoot 3 different sections of a short for me, now I want to put them in one project together in order and burn a DVD.

    you can copy (copy all) the clips from one project and paste them into another clip, but music and titles will not come with that. If you export one project as a .mov file and then reimport it into iMovie as suggested, that will easily work, but you wont be able to edit that movie's music or titles.

  • Convert different types of files and merged them into one pdf

    Hi, everyone. I'm girl from China.
    There is folder containing severl files of different types, like doc, msg, jpeg etc.   And I want to convert and merge them into one pdf following a certain order. I know that PDFmaker can do that nicely, but the problem is that I have like 3000+ fodlders that requires the same work.
    I want to do it with VBA and Acrobat. I have a Acrobat XI Standard Version and a perfect license, by the way
    And I have got the code(Thanks, Karl Heinz Kremer) of merging two pdfs into one, but how can I convert them into pdf first?
    Thank you very much.
    If I can finish this, I would like to publish my code on this forum.

    Wow, that's great news. But how should I add the Action?
    1. There is no action named "Covert files into Pdf" in the tools panel....
    And if I write Javascript code to do this action. How should I write it?
    app.openDoc({
    cPath: "/c/temp/myPic.jpg",
    bUseConv: true
    These code only works when I specify the path of the file.
    If you know how, pls tell me..........

  • How can I open all my itunes libraries and merge them into one?

    Some of my music can't be opened by itunes because it says it is in another library.  As there are several of these and they won't open,I can't see where the songs I want are.  Therefore I would like to open ALL the libraries and merge them into one.  Thanks for any help.

    Hmm, read that post of Dave Sawyer's and thought well, that's Ok I have it on my iPod, but no, it's not there either.  Then resorted to Time Machine (not used for a few months (took it away with us when we evacuated to avoid Cyclone Yasi) only to find that is playing up also, and it doesn't appear to be anywhere there either!
    One thing leads on to another - Time Machine has only backed up to 3 months back; then there is nothing beyond!  yet there is tons of stuff on it.  Maybe it backs up the whole system each time, and not just the changes made inbetween times.   The prefs. won't appear and so I can't change the setup.
    All this just because of one sone!

  • How do you import multiple iMovie projects into one iDVD project?

    Hi.
    I'm 17, and am trying to create a DVD of when the family went on a cruise. For different places/days, I've created different iMovie projects.
    But, when I want to export to iDVD, it only lets me put one iMovie project into one iDVD project?
    I've tried dragging the actual iMovie project files into iDVD but that doesn't work.
    I know I could export to QuickTime and then drag it into iDVD, but it seems exporting just to iDVD is much quicker, and the quality is better.
    Anyone know how I can do this?
    cheers
    +P.S. If it helps, it's iMovie '11 with iDVD '09.+

    That is not true. You can use them all in one DVD. I have just created my first DVD which has a trailer, a movie with chapters and several different slide shows.
    All you have to do is save each project to Media Browser. (Choose Share in toolbar). Open iDVD and choose your theme or no theme. On the right will be all your options such as audio, media photo's etc. Choose your various video's/projects etc and just drag and drop which ones you want to the page and they will automatically put themselves there with the given name of each video/project.

  • My document seems to be in three distinct sections. I think that because the thumbnails have three distinct yellow frames around them. Can I merge these into one document?

    My document seems to be in three distinct sections. I think that because the thumbnails have three distinct yellow frames around them. Can I merge these into one document?

    Gill,
    The three sections are one document. There are usually good reasons for Section Breaks, so you'll want to be sure that you really need to delete them. To get rid of the Section Breaks, just place your cursor at the top of the page following the break and press Delete until the Section Break goes away. It should take only one click for each case.
