Move project bin in Elements 10

In the beginning, my Project Bin (Thumbnails of open images) was at the bottom. Not good. One day it automagically appeared vertically along the left edge. Good. Then, for no apparant reason it started appearing at the bottom again. Nothing I do makes it go back to its appointed place. I don't want to minimize it, just see my thumbnails where there is more room. Thanks for your help.

Hi Gary
I keep mine on the right so that its tabbed with the Adjustment layers in the lower section of the panels; with the layers and history panels tabbed in the upper section.
Simply drag the project bin to the right and when the blue outline appears drop it.

Photoshop Elements 7 Stop Project Bin from Opening

Is there any way to stop the project bin from opening. It takes screen space I need on my laptop and also slows it down. I am using XP. Thanks for any help.
Gail

Hi,
See there is triangle in the middle of line above Photo-bin. Click on that and Photobin will collapse. Even when you move th cursor to uppar line cursor type changes to resize, so you can click and move it down upto the limit you want.
Hope it will solve your problem

Can't drag images to the project bin in photoshop Element 8

Hello,
I'm new to Photoshop Element 8 on Mac ( I was using photoshop element 5 on PC before). For some reason I can't seem to be able to drag any files to my project bin! The only way I have managed to open files in PSE 8 is trough the File-Open menu which is really annoying and makes everything very time consuming. Help Please!
D.B.

Hi DB
You can do this from the OS.
Open the Editor.
Open the folder and minimize it.
Command click on the items you want or select all and drag into the main window of the PSE Editor.
Or simply select the number of images you want in organizer and hit Full Edit.

Photoshop Elements 9 Editor not showing images in Project Bin

Yesterday I went though my PE9 Organiser and rearrange some of my files and made sure that it was more user friendly.
Today I went in to try and do some edits and not all of the folders are showing up in PE9 Project Bin. I can view some images, but not all images. I know that I can view some images that I move yesterday, but there are some that weren't moved that I can't see and some that I didn't move that i can't see.
When i go to my Organiser I can see that the images are tagged and in the folders - why can't PE9 Editor show them to me?

Hi,
Can you please tell where are folders visible in Project Bin?
I can't see folders in my PE9 project bin.
Thanks

Premiere Elements 9 can't find moved videos? How to move projects?

I have a customer with an almost full hard drive, with almost 100GB of Premiere Elements stuff. I copied the videos (.mts) to an external drive but the project can't find them there. I can open a project and go to Get Media, and if I browse to C:\My Documents\My Videos (the original location), I can get the video. If I browse to the new location (E:\My Videos), I can see the video but double clicking it does nothing.
I have looked in all the preferences in the Organizer and the Project and I can't find the path "C:\My Documents\My Videos" anywhere, so I can't change it to the new location. Projects can find them in "C:\My Documents\My Videos" even though the current path to videos is shown as "C:\My Documents\My Pictures". How do I do this?
A second question: How do I move projects to the new location? Most of the answers I have found are for Elements 4 or so. If it's obvious and is answered in another location, a link would be great.
Lew

To move a project to a new location -- such as to an external drive -- use the Project Archiver, under the File menu.
This will copy not only the project file but also all of the connected media files associated with a project without losing the links. You can then delete the original project and media files from the C drive.
Otherwise, you'll need to open each project and manually locate the links to the media clips -- which is no fun. (Although, if the clips are all in the same folder on your drive, if you connect one clip, the program will recognize the others and automatically re-connect all of the clips for that project.)

Multiple instances of the same source clip in Project bin

This is a strange one.
I think its more an issue now than ever due to tapeless format editing. I edit lots of video now shot on Canon 5d. They sometimes have thousands of individual clips.
The problem is that our project files are getting huge and premiere slows to a grinding halt.
We copy paste lots of timelines from one project to another. When we paste, all of the source clips land in the project bin (as you would expect) However, sometimes I have already made reference to the same source files in the edit to begin with (So they are already in the project bin)
However, when I paste a new timeline, it will make another reference to that same source clip in the project bin. Therefore double up reference to a souce clip in the project. Increasing the clips in the overall project, which bloats everything and slows premiere down.
Can premiere be smarter? Can it see that the source file already exists in the project and link to that existing file instead of creating another reference to the same file?
Hope that makes sence.

I am beginning to think that there is no easy way around this issue.
I have started to use Final Cut and am noticing lots of differences between the two platforms. I have been a Adobe Premiere user for 10 years and I concider myself a NINJA using this program. However, there are definitly differences between the two, this being one of them.
Final cut does not double up on source references in your project bin when copying one sequence from one project into another.
CLEVER
Its annoying that premiere doubles files up as it gets ridiculously messy in your project bin. Double ups, triple ups, quadruple ups the list goes on.
Its strange cause when you start a Prem project from scratch and import a source clip, you can set in and out points as many times as possible and drag onto the timeline, and it does not duplicate the original source file in the project bin. Thus keeping your project bin neat and clean. However, as soon as you paste a sequence, it goes and duplicates refeneces like its outta control, rather than looking at what you alraedy have in your project bin and saying to itself. (Hmmm well the source clip is already here, so we dont have to duplicate this one....move onto the next file)
Prem is great at lots of things, dont get me wrong. I freaking love the program, however, things like this let it down as the program becomes unusable as it gets bogged down with way too many clip references.
Hmmm, we shall see who wins the day in the end. Time do do some Final Cut edditing now.
P.S. Final cut can do 16 multi clips in a real time edit. Premiere...only 4...come on Prem, pick up your game!

Show organizer files in the project bin.

In the project bin the default option is to "show open files". But there is an additional oprion in the drop down menu "Show files from Orgainzer". I am just learning to use elements 8 and am reading a book that describes this and see the drop down menu in my program but when I choose that option nothing is displayed. The open file thumbnail goes away but nothing from orgaizer replaces it. Is this a bug in the program or am I doing something wrong? Julie

Sorry for the perhaps silly question, but did you send multiple files from the organizer to the editor? It's not just a shortcut to see all the photos in the organizer--it only shows the images you've sent over for editing. Are you saying you did send a bunch of files and they still don't appear? If you click back to the organizer do those images show the red band with a lock on it?

Can't find offline media for a saved project. Premiere Element 13. I'm just a novice

I'm just a novice. I've tried to open an older project and it states that media is off line. I haven't be able to get it back in order to burn another copy of the project.

Are you trying to open a project file from an older version of Premiere Elements in Premiere Elements 13?
Or, have you done a project in Premiere Elements 13, saved closed it, and now reopen it to find a lot of colorful displays
and "Where is the file _____?" messages?
Major question...forget about the project for the moment...if you go to the computer hard drive, can you spot the files
that the project is telling you are missing?
After any of these project files were saved closed, did you move, delete, or rename files and folders that went into the project?
Let us start here, and then we can decide what next and then go into a lot more details to get your project's source
media reconnect to the project.
Never hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarification.
Thank you.

I am trying to edit a .mov video in Premiere Elements 12, but the video and audio do not sync. They work fine when played in Quicktime.

Hello,
I am trying to edit a .mov video in Premiere Elements 12, but the video and audio do not sync as soon as I load it into the program. It appears to work fine in Quicktime.
Thanks in advance.

mbgoodwi
Thanks for the reply. This is the plan.
Open Premiere Elements 12/12.1 to the Expert workspace.
In the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
In the Change Settings area, select the project preset
NTSC
AVCHD
AVCHD LITE 720p30
OK out of there. In the New Project dialog that appears, note that it has your new project preset named.
Be sure to put a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project". And, then OK out of there.
Back in the Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace, use Add Media/Files and Folders to bring your video
into Project Assets. From Project Assets drag your video to the Timeline Video Track 1/Audio Track 1.
Is there an orange line over the content in the Timeline. See screenshot for orange line to which I am referring.
There should be no colored line over the content if the project preset matches the video properties. But, if you do see
that orange line, then render the Timeline content by pressing the Enter key of the computer main keyboard or press
the Render button above the Timeline.
Do your video/audio now play back in the Edit area monitor in sync?
Please let us know the result, and then we will decide what next.
Thanks.

Open multiple images from the project bin

In Elements 9 I can only seem to open 1 image from the project bin at a time! What am I doing wrong?
Bob Dunkerley.

You need to double click on your main image and then drag your second image up from the project bin. That creates separate images on separate layers.

How do you make the project bin window Not come up in quick edit in PE9?

A few weeks ago I started to notice the Project Bin coming up whenever I went to quick edit. I don't think it did it before that. I always have to go to windows and uncheck it to get more screen space to work with.
How do I get the Project Bin to Not automatically come up when I press Quick edit in Premier Elements 9?

This is the Premiere Elements forum.
Quick Edit is a function of Photoshop Elements. If this is a question about Photoshop Elements, you're more likely to get an answer in the Photoshop Elements forum.

How do I get the Project Bin to Not automatically come up when I press Quick edit in Photoshop Elements 9?

Yes, thanks, I understand how to close it by what you said and also clicking on Project Bin title bar.
I would like to know how to change the default so the project bin does not automatically open when I open quick edit.
Anybody know how to change the default to do this?

How do you rearrange footage in project bin

Once I have imported my footage how do I rearange them in the project bin. I can't seem to grab a clip and move it into the
position in list I want ( similar to arranging clips in PP or FCP ) Thank you

You can't arbitrarily order entries in the Project panel. You can order items by any of the columns (e.g., by name, type). You can also order by the Comment column. When I want a specific set of items to be ordered in a custom order, I add tags to the Comments field and sort by that column.

Error when adding .MOV file to Premiere Elements 10

Im trying to add videos taken on my ipad to a new project in Premier Elements 10, but I get this error: Add Media Failure = The importer reported a generic error.
I've read that .mov is just some sort of container and I might need to download a codec of some sort. Has anybody already solved this problem and can just dumb it down for me? Im new to all this - its just a hobby, so Im not very technical.
Thanks!

If you open the MOV in Media Info or G Spot, what does it show as its resolution, frame rate and codec?
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
As you've said, the MOV suffix itself doesn't tell you much. Inside that package could be any of hundreds of possible codecs, most of which won't digest well in Premiere Elements.
Meantime, are you on a Mac or PC? What operating system are you using? Have you got the latest version of Quicktime on your machine, per the program's requirements?

I cannot play a video .mov file in Photoshop Elements 12, it shows as a blank white screen

I cannot play a video file (.mov) in Adobe Photoshop Elements, only can hear sound, and shows as a blank white screen.

Margie
Thanks for the replies.
I did some homework on your camera, and it appears to be recording H.264 video compression, Linear PCM Stereo, with a .mov file extension.
Let us do a check list to make sure we agree on the details...
a. You cannot play back the video in the Elements Organizer 12
b. Can you import this video into Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace with the program's Add Media/Files and Folder/Project Assets? Does it then show up in Project Assets with an image in the thumbnail? Can you drag the video from Project Assets to the Timeline and have the Edit Mode monitor display that video and play it back there when you hit the monitor play button?
From what I have read of your camera, you could be recording 1920 x 1080 @ 60 progressive frames per second. Can you supply an information on that? What are you or the project setting as the project preset (See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio.)
Could you explain what you mean by
and can play it in the video editor, but it just shows the frames, not a real video play.
I am searching the Internet to see if I can find a sample file that I can download.
More later.
