Missing editing components from my effects panel

I just started using my Premiere Elements software on a Mac after having first used it on a PC. I am trying to edit something and noticed that many of my keying effects are missing from the effects panel. How do I find or restore them? I need the keying effects for green and blue screen but all thosse are missing. Please help. Thanks!

Although the operations of Premiere Elements Windows and Mac are very similar, there are differences.
One of the differences is in the keying effects, such as Chroma Key, Green Screen Key, and Blue Screen Key. Many will steer you in the direction of Videomerge as a possible workaround. Not one of my favorites. But, you can check it out to see if it works for you.
Please take a look at my blog post on the use of the Difference Matte as a possible replacement for the keying effects not present in Premiere Elements Mac. This blog post would apply to Premiere Elements 11 as well as 12.

As for other Premiere Elements Windows and Mac differences, I have reported some in another of my blog posts directed to PE11: Mac Information Round Up
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/08/pe11-mac-information-round-up.html
I am strictly an Elements Windows user. So, that blog post was one of my initial steps to get acquainted to Premiere Elements Mac.
Please review.
Thanks.

Missing diagram components from component palette in Jdev11

I've been using JDeveloper 11 for a couple of months and today went to create a sequence diagram and found that I had no sequence components listed in the Component Palette. The only drop-down selection is "My Components" which is empty.
I tried this in Tech Preview 4 which I still have and the selection drop-down contains Sequence components such as Object Lifeline, Message, etc.
I'm using version 11.1.1.0.1 and it's the full Studio version/role that I'm running.
Any hints on what might be wrong with my setup?
Thanks,
Gary

I tested several approaches:
- closed and opened Jdeveloper several times
- rebooted the machine and then opened Jdeveloper
nothing worked
I managed to resolve the problem in the "heavy way".
I first uninstalled/reinstalled JDev 11.1.1.0.2 but nothing changed. It didn't ask me to import settings from previous version.
I tried again but this time I:
- uninstalled Jdeveloper
- removed the directory <JDEV_INSTALL_DIR>/system/system11.1.1.0.31.52.05 (moved it elsewhere)
- reinstalled Jdeveloper importing settings of my previous JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.1 which was into the directory <JDEV_INSTALL_DIR>/system/system11.1.1.0.31.51.88
I reopened my projects and everything is back to normal.. at least for DB diagram ans Sequence diagram (I haven't tested everything).
Since I haven't changed my settings since the upgrade, I haven't lose anything.
I even closed Jdeveloper and reopened it to check if it was still working fine and it was.
So this is one solution for people having the same problem.
I don't know if there is a "lighter" way to resolve the problem.

Removing components from a J panel Help?

I have a J Panel which has on it a stack of 10 components which are composed
of either jComboboxes or textfields. Duridng program operation I need to clear the panel and then
add the components again in different locations depending on user selection.
Problem is I can't seem to get rid of the comboboxes. I am trying a removeAll and then
reinitializing/rebuilding with all text fields but the combobox won't go away.
I have used various combinations of
Even if I just do the removeAll the underlying panel jPanel2 does not clear itself completly
jPanel2.validate();
jPanel2.invalidate();
jPanel2.doLayout();
Nothing seems to work yet
Help??

You can try remove () and then call repaint, unless you've done that...

Missing edited photos from iPhoto after Force Quit

I just lost about 50 photos. I'm using a separate application to edit my photos before transferring them to my iPhoto Library. A couple hours in to editing I received an error message and had to force quit both iPhoto and my other photo editing app. I had been adding each photo I edited to iPhoto as I went along, then deleted the unedited version (emptying my trashcan also). After reopening iPhoto, all the pictures I had edited were gone and the original versions were back in the library.
Any clues as to how this happened and if it's possible to retrieve my edited photos?

Why are you deleting the unedited versions?
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

HELP please, missing the Thumbdatabase.db3 file; actions disappear from Effects Panel

I hope someone can help me, I'm totally frustrated and confused. Whenever I install a new action, previously installed actions disappear from the Effects Panel! Does anyone know what's happening and how to fix it? Also, I have no ThumbDatabase.db3 file in the folder: Photoshop Elements 7.0/Locale/en_US Shouldn't it be there? Can anyone help me with both these issues? Thanks so much.

TexasErin, you have solved the whole problem!!!! You have me jumping for joy! I've been dealing with this for three days and ready to give up entirely, completely discouraged that no one seemed to know the cause or how to fix this "case of the disappearing actions"! (BTW, I found the missing ThumbDatabase.db3 file in the Photshop Elements\ 7.0 folder. But I had to click the 7 and completely open the folder to see it. It was not visible in the "tree" on the left side of the panel where all the drives/folers are displayed.)
Your answer completely nailed the issues and fixed them! Most helpful was your suggestion to paste actions directly into the Photo Effects folder, and NOT put actions into their own folders in Photo Effects. I made that mistake and had about 3 folders containing actions in Photo Effects. I got rid of them, pasted all the ATN, PNG and XMLs directly into Photo Effects. I deleted the MediaDatabase.db3, started PSE, and waited a minimum of 30 minutes for it rebuild.
That was another piece of very helpful advice you gave -- to wait unitl the rebuilding message disappears, cursor returns to normal, etc. Your entire answer was so clear and precise and right on target, I'm going to print it and hang it on my wall. Are you one of the Adobe Experts? You definitely sound like one, or should be considered one if not! I'm SO grateful, thanks a million!!!

Remove Components from Library

I'm new to Catalyst, so this might be a stupid question.
I created a bad datalist and as soon as I realized my error I deleted it from the Artboard, but it is still in my Library. Now every time I run the project I get an alert that says that DataList1 is missing a required part and will produce an error.
I don't need DataList1 and I'm not really interested in fixing it. In the current build of the application, is there a way to just remove this component from my library so that I don't have to deal with the error anymore?
Thanks.

Currently you cannot remove components from the library panel, but this is something we are working on. There is a temporary solution though: switch to code view and you'll see a panel on the right side of the screen that shows all the files in your project. In the components folder there should be a DataList1.mxml file. Right click on it and choose delete.
Note that if you follow the above steps and delete a component that is used elsewhere in your project, your application won't compile.

Acrobat Support

I just reinstalled PSE 9 and now my edit effects panel doesn't work when I click on it. Help!

If anybody had this problem and has the solution, please share and I'll be a happy camper again. I have Window Vista. Thanks.

Hi,
When you are saying that the edit effect panel doesn't work, Do you mean there is nothing in the panel (It is an empty panel) or there are items but when clicked nothing is happening ?
Also, Is it the case with Edit Effect panel only or other panels are also behaving in same way ?

You may want to search within the Photoshop Lightroom forum to see if someone else has asked the same question previously.

Missing New Document Window when opening new document, along with other menu items: Object style, effects panel, etc.

I am missing many elements, it seems in my InDesign program. How can this be? I am taking a course at the local college (inDesign CS6), and when going through the book and steps, I keep noticing that I am missing things. For example: When I open a New Document - no new document window shows up on my screen, and there is no way to change the page size, etc that shows up. 2.) There is no Object Styles panel - Window>Styles>Object Styles - but the Object Styles option doesn't exist. 3.) There is no Effects panel to be found, either. As I continue the course, more and more things keep showing up like this. What is going on? I am not doing something wrong; my instructor verified that indeed these things seem to be missing. I purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium disk for Windows OS. Please help!
I did have trouble installing the disk, but thanks to someone in the forum, I was able to drag everything to the desktop and it installed that way. Could that be why this is happening?

The Knowledge Base plugin is not required, but the Master Page is, so there's definitely an install problem. Go back to Help, and hold down the Ctrl key while you click on About InDesign. What is the full version number in the upper left of the dialog that appears?
Also, go to Adobe - Exchange : Download the Adobe Extension Manager and download and install the latest version of the CS6 extension manager.

Thumbnails vanished from Effects Panel

The effects panel has no thumbnails availble. When I click on the "More Menu" at the top right of the effects panel the options displayed for thumbnail size etc don't make any difference.
I purchased Photoelements 9 last week and these thumbnails were avaible when I first installed the program.
Thanking you in anticipation

Okay, then you're stuck, I'm afraid. There's a known bug in the app store version that it doesn't care bediddly about mediaDatabase.db3. You can delete it and it never comes back and it doesn't change a thing as far as PSE is concerned. It's very strange. People who have thumbnails can throw it out and they still see exactly what was there before they did.
You could try removing it and removing every scrap of anything adobe from the preferences and also the remembered state of PSE (your username/library/saved application state), and reinstalling, but I don't know if that will force it, either.

Missing iMovie components & Apps after Archive & Install

I recently did an archive & reinstall. Opening iMovie for the first time after it gave me the following error:
"Missing Quicktime Components: The QuickTime components necessary to view, edit, import, and export several kinds of movies are not installed. These components are included with the iMovie installer; please re-install."
iMovie still opened but I didn't want to entrust it with importing files. So I went here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/imovie712.html and downloaded the latest iMovie and tried to install it. But I got this error:
"Alert: An eligible iMovie application was not found in the location /Applications."
Huh, that's weird. So I looked in my Applications folder and not only is iMovie not there, but neither is iPhoto, or iDVD!
I suppose I could bring them back with the versions in my Time Machine prior to the archive and reinstall, but would they come whole? Would it be better to reinstall these from the Installation DVD's? WHo knows what else is missing? Guess that is what I get for using the Leopard Installation DVD I got for my G5, rather than using the disks that came with this MacBook Pro.
Any advice?

"Missing Quicktime Components: The QuickTime components necessary to view, edit, import, and export several kinds of movies are not installed. These components are included with the iMovie installer; please re-install."
The modal message is telling you that some of the components used by iMovie for import/editing are missing and that the easiest way to re-install them is to re-run the iLife '08 (or more specifically the iMovie '08) installer package. For instance, Imovie '08 installs a special MPEG-2 component that converts normal MPEG-2 content from a DVD or HDD camcorder to all I-frame MPEG-2 content (the equivalent of Motion-JPEG video) which can be edited in iMovie '08. The component also allows you to view such MOV files in the QT Player others others without iLife '08 installed would not be able to view them.
iMovie still opened but I didn't want to entrust it with importing files. So I went here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/imovie712.html and downloaded the latest iMovie and tried to install it. But I got this error: "Alert: An eligible iMovie application was not found in the location /Applications."
Re-install from your original installation disks. This area is for upgrading earlier versions of iMovie '08. If you are already running v7.1.4, the the software on this page will not allow you to "upgrade" your software since it is looking for specific older versions. Besides, these upgrades may assume the additional components are already install not may not even bother to check for them.
Would it be better to reinstall these from the Installation DVD's?
Yes.

Premiere Pro CS4 - editing video from GoPro video camera

I am having a problem trying to edit video from the GoPro camera in Premiere Pro CS4 (PP). Have not been able to get much help from GoPro - they just tell me to speak with Adobe. I think the video codec used by the camera is MJPEG (?). It won't play at all on the timeline. Interestingly it will in After Effects (AE) CS4 and if I export it out of AE as a Microsoft AVI file I can then play it in PP. However if I go straight to Media Encoder and import the clip and then try export the clip via ME as a Microsoft AVI the exported clip from ME won't play in Premiere Pro. I am confused. Does anyone know this camera, it's codec and why it just won't work when directly imported into Premiere Pro but it will when imported directly into After Effects. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Please see a post I made this morning under my screen name BruceERoberts .... details below
I just purchase Adobe Premiere Pro a few days ago - and subsequently updated it to Ver 4.2.1. A started a new project - I tried to import some video footage I just shot with a GOPro Hemet Cam while skiing at our local mountain. I can easlily see the clip using Real Media Player - or the Quick Time player. It is a 10.9 MB ... 7 second MPEG-4 movie clip. File name is "gopro0030.mp4"
I created a "bin" called video .... then right clicked to import the file. You can see the file name in the media browser. But the file would not import. I received this error message: "109C ImporterProcessServer.exe Application Error. The instruction at "0x05efcac" referenced memory at "0x00000014". The memory could not be read. CLick OK to terminate."
This is very frustrating - I just purchased the software - and it won't import a 7 second video clip! It did import still fotos with no problem. What can I do?
thank you for your attention to this.
