My Adobe Premiere elements 10 is really laggy

OKay so like the title says whenever i try to import my files and try to edit them my program runns really slow. why is this?
here is the specs of my laptop
and my camera is a Cannon Rebel t3i and i record in 1080p
please help!

Yes, an upgrade to version 11 or 12 would likely resolve a lot of these performance issues. But what are the exact specs of the video you shot? (Your camera shoots 1080 in 24, 25 and 30 frames to per second.) It's possible you can come close to matching your video specs in your current version.
Your computer is still a bit underpowered for high-def video, however. So you can only improve performance with video from this camera so much.

  • Silent uninstall of Adobe Premiere Elements 9

    On http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/861/cpsid_86151.html I found a good description for a silent installation of Adobe Premiere Elements 9 which really works fine. But where to find a description for a silent uninstall of Adobe Premiere Elements 9?
    Thanks for all help

    PhotoshopElements_9_LS15.exe should be 1.2mb so that looks ok.
    PhotoshopElements_9_LS15.7z should be 1.8gb so that does NOT look ok.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0 hangs while exporting and during peak file generation.

    I have Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0 (PRE7). I have a project which is using a single clip from a Mini-DV that was captured with Nero 8. Nero 8 was used because it was captured prior to installing PRE7. The file is 12GB and is on a USB disk drive because I don't have the space on my main hard drive (I have about 11GB free). My project doesn't do too much that's fancy. It merely uses about 20 minutes of the 60 minute Mini-DV captured AVI, and it uses simple transitions between each scene. I also have very simple titles at start and end. No themes or anything else.
    I've seen two problems. 1) While editing the project, seemingly (but I'm not positive it's related) while the peek file was being generated, PRE7 would get into a state of using about 40% to 50% CPU, and it would not let me do anything else. The other problem, 2) While using "Share" to export the video to WMA for playback on PC (about 180MB estimated file size according to Adobe), the file is exported to about the last remaining 5 seconds, but then PRE7 goes into that mode of hanging with 40% to 50% CPU usage.
    One time when it had this 50% CPU issue, I let it sit overnight, and the export was finished in the morning. The export that time was to a 90MB FLV for posting to the "web" according to the Share wizard. But when I was doing the above (issue #2), it went into the 50% CPU usage but didn't finish after waiting around 2 hours. Even if I were to let it sit that time, and it were to finish, it seems like something's wrong and that this is unacceptable.
    When this happens, and PRE7 goes into 50% CPU utilization, there is no pacifier or percentage bar advancing. It usually happens near 100% finished. Only one time did it complete successfully after leaving it unattended at 90% complete for an extraordinary amount of time.
    To recap:
    C:\ hard drive ---> PRE7, my project.
    E:\ USB drive ---> 12GB source AVI file and destination for export.
    I saw elsewhere on this forum that someone imported a mini-dv captured AVI into Window Movie Maker and then exported it to Mini-DV from that app. This solved that person's problem with hanging during peak file creation. I had the 50% hang issue during peak file generation but I'm not sure it was related to peak file generation. A peak file was generated in a project which, when exported with share as mentioned above, still did the hang 50% CPU issue. Regardless, I will try the import/export/movemaker thing and report back but I've been trying enough things that I wanted to take a second to ask for assistance.
    Does anyone have this issue, and is there a patch or fix?
    I might be able to provide a user mode dump of the 50% CPU adobe process. There is some call stack information and I'm wondering if developers would want this info if they don't already have a solution/fix to this bug.
    Thanks for any help.

    I have some more info on the hang which I've been experiencing during export/share of a project which uses an AVI as its one main clip. Adobe Premiere Elements 7 (PRE7) appears to be hanging because it's looping endlessly in ImporterAVI.prm. I'm wondering if this info can be passed onto Adobe developers and/or if I can submit this information elsewhere for such processing. I also have a process dump file which might be helpful, not to mention the original project files.
    I used Process Monitor to help analyze this situation, and prior to PRE7 getting into the endless loop, it appears to be reading from the AVI file little by little, and WMEncodingHelper.exe is writing out little by little to the destination file, both of which I would expect. When PRE7 gets to the end of the import/export, Process Monitor appears to show all the aforementioned disk activity ceasing. I see neither process reading or writing. This would be normal if the share/export procedure had completed. But PRE7 is not complete. It is hung and is operating at 50% CPU utilization.
    Far below in this post are technical details which may be helpful to an Adobe developer determine why the importer could get into this endless loop. In those details, there is a jump instruction, "jb ImporterAVI!xImportEntry+0xf32", which will always jump if a particular compare always turns out a certain way. But in my review of the counters being compared, it never will get to a point of exiting. When I modify a flag (the carry flag) to be 0, the loop exits. When I did this, my export/share of my project completed successfully. So it was done, but for some reason, PRE7 was looping and looping in its AVI importor instead of completing the export (aka "Share").
    I cannot say that this certainly indicates a bug with PRE7, but it seems to me that there's enough data for Adobe to be at least investigating this particular issue. I'm not the only person who has seen this as there was at least one other message describing the same problem which the user resolved by effectively re-creating the AVI file via a no-op import/export into and out of MovieMaker. My AVI also goes through MovieMaker, import/export, without a hitch.
    In a sense, I view PRE7's "share" as essentially an import, processing of imported information (i.e., effects and transitions), and an export. It's an import of all clips into the project at the right times, a processing of all effects, and finally an export to a destination. I realize this is simplistic, but the point I'm making is I have a simple project with a single AVI, and it appears that the "import" portion of PRE7's Share option is choking on the only clip used by this project. I also don't have much but simple transitions and a beginning/ending title on the project, so I'm not thinking this use of PRE7 is much more than what I'm doing with MovieMaker when importing/exporting this AVI.
    I fully agree that optimum hardware can be either required or critical for certain types of video editing, but PRE7 is a consumer program and I'm not using anything extensive about it and the symptoms are that PRE7 is looping on its import of a file other programs don't have a problem with. I already tried purchasing a 1TB external, which I'm glad I did, but I really think Adobe developers should look at this issue. There may be a problem with handling certain AVI clips used in a project when those clips come from certain sources. If there is an issue, perhaps it could warrant a fix that would make PRE7 more compatible with these other clips.
    Does Adobe have a procedure for people to upload (or mail) projects and files to it so that they can troubleshoot why the importer gets into this state? I also mentioned earlier that I have a full user-mode dump of the process which may be of value to a dev. Can I submit this information anywhere?
    Here are textual technical details:
    Plug-in which loops: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0\Plug-ins\en_US\ImporterAVI.prm
    The following are the instructions at the "bottom" of the loop which never ends. Below, I put "***" at the jump instruction I mentioned earler. If I force the carry flag to be 0 at that point, and the jump is skipped, the export completed successfully. Additionally, notice that [esp-0x1c] is 0x2000, and that both eax and edi are 0. When I see it loop, eax stays at 0 and never reaches 0x2000. I wonder if something about the AVI is causing values used by this importer to be such that it causes this endless loop, and if that's the case, and if such values are valid/good, I'm wondering if the importer can be fixed by being able to detect such values so as to not choke (if in fact it's an importer issue).

  • Can't open Adobe Premiere Elements 9

    I've had some problems with Adobe Premiere Elements 9 recently, and right now I'm not able to use it. I'm not sure what the problem is really or how to fix it so I'll just write down what has happened here and hopefully someone knows what to do.
    A week or so ago my laptop started to crash repeatedly, but fortunately that was solved. But then I noticed that when I opened Adobe Premiere Elements, that's when it crashed and only then. It stopped crashing altogether except for when I opened this program (if it is of any importance I also tried opening Windows Movie Maker to edit there in the meantime but the same thing happened there, which seems strange and kinda random to me). I decided to get an antivirus software and install that and see if that took care of it, which I have now done. That didn't exactly take care of it though. The laptop did stop crashing when opening the Adobe software, but nothing happens once it's opened. The tabs on the top right are there but the whole program is just grey (where you would normally have the timeline on the bottom, video to the left, and the files etc. to the right) and nothing else comes up. I then tried to uninstall Adobe Premiere Elements 9 from my laptop altogether and then re-install it with the CD I still had from purchasing the laptop a couple of years ago. But after re-installing there is no change. Just a grey screen once again, except for the tabs and all that on the top. Now I'm not sure what else to try. It's frustrating as I need this program to work right about now. Does anyone know what to do? Thanks.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor: how to get support when you purchase at Apple Store?

    [Moving to Premiere Elements... JTS]
    I purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor software at Apple Store in May/11/2013.
    I could use the product no more than 2 times because it started to have problems to open, since then I could not use anymore. In December, when I was trying to use the software again, I couldn't and started to call Apple and Adobe to try to solve my problems.
    Apple Support advise me to uninstall my Operational System (@Mavericks) and to install back the older version @Mac_OS_X_Lion_10.7. I did that and Adobe didn't work again. IT downloaded to my computer, but it couldn't be opened. As you can see the print screens below.
    After many tries going back and force to Adobe and Apple and now that the software is no longer available in Apple Store I am not sure why, I did not even had chance to try to reinstall and Apple said that they can't do anything. Also Adobe says that I can't get any help besides these forums because I have no Serial Number to provide (Apple never provided me this number).
    Anyone had a similar situation like mine? I would appreciate to have some help on this.

    Hi ATR,
    Thank you very much for your contact. This is the first person from both companies so far who tries to really help me.
    As follows are your answers, I would appreciate if I could get some help with that matter.
    SERIAL NUMBER FOR MY PRODUCT: The only document I have is the Invoice from Apple/iTunes Store (image below) for my Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor purchase, which I believe makes Apple responsible for my product as well. However, last time I talked to Apple, the advisor who spoke to me said that Apple could not do anything else, since the product was no longer available in their Store. Neversthless, Apple never provided me the serial number for the product, which I bought from Apple Store and downloaded directly to my computer. On the other side, all the times I called Adobe, the representatives could not attend me because I don't have the serial number to provide to it.
    What is the present situation
    a. Do you have Premiere Elements 11 Editor installation files saved to your computer?
    Ans: It disappeared from Apple Store in my computer and from iTunes Store as well. However, the software was in my computer before as can be seen in the images below:
    b. Is Premiere Elements 11 Editor currently installed on your computer?
    Ans: It was installed in my computer when I bought it, and I did use it in 2 occasions. However, after I started to face the problem trying to open the software and use it, Apple advised me to change my Operational System from Mavericks to Mac OS X Lion 10.7 to be able to work with Adobe Premiere Elements 11, since it could be facing problems with Mavericks. After have installed Mac OS X Lion, I tried to install Adobe Premiere again, but now it is not even possible to do from the Apple Store.
    c. If you went to http://www.adobe.com, signed in there with your Adobe ID and Password, and went to My Products, do you see your Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor listed there and does it include the serial number?
    Ans: My Adobe ID doesn't show Adobe Premiere, so that's one more reason why I don't have the serial number for my product. The only document I have for it is the Apple Store invoice and through it I can't have other number besides the order # or invoice # from Apple.
    d. Miscellaneous...Did you ever have QuickTime installed on your computer with the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor?...Are your computer preferences and privileges OK?...What is your current computer operating system?
    Ans: I used to have my Quick Time when I used Adobe Premiere in my computer. Since came back to Mac OS X Lion 10.7, many softwares were lost when the Operating System was changed.
    I hope I have provided enough information, but please let me know if you have any questions.
    Best,

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12

    I am using the above program and have saved the file which is 1hr 59 minutes into a folder as MPEG that has 1.71TB free of a 1.81TB drive. I am trying to burn the 5.9GB file onto a DVD which is dual layered.  The disk says the space is free and have tried multiple disks.  When I go to burn it, it gives me a response saying that the disk is something like 4.89GB to small.  I can't burn from my original file b/c I don't have enough hard drive space for the temporary files to burn.  Deleting programs really is not an option.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

    SlugHammer
    Let us back up on this so that I do not take anything for granted.
    You wrote
    The size of the file through the Publish+Share states Space Required: 7.41 GB(Bitrate 8.00Mbps) when Burn to: Disc is selected.   When I hit burn it states “Insufficient disk space on drive for creating temporary burning files.”
    If the Space Required and Bitrate readings that you quoted were your readings with a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space", then the usable DVD double layer single sided disc capacity should have been OK. But, the message does not mention disc capacity. It appears to be targeting "...creating temporary burning files". For me, that means the free hard drive space where the Encoded Files Folders - typically in Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/ . Where is that Encoded Files Folder located and how much free hard drive space is there?
    Then you wrote
    If I click Burn to Folder with choice 8.5GB it states Space Required 1.58GB(Bitrate 1.69MBps), and if I chose the same DVD-Burn to folder 4.7GB it states 1.58GB(Bitrate 1.69Mbps) both have Status as “Insufficient disc space for burning” and both show folder location in my C Drive.
    Here I think that you are in trouble with that Bitrate of 1.69 Mbps. That is the lowest possible Bitrate setting. The lower the bitrate the lower the file size, but the lower the quality. Even though you were doing burn to folder here, did you remember to put a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space"? That should have given you readings similar to those for burn to disc. Use of "Fit Content to Available Space" would be expected to get rid of the "Insufficient disc space for burning" message in the burn to folder.
    Please critically distinguish between Insufficient space on DVD disc versus Local Disk C.
    Two critical items for considerations as I see it
    a. Free space for the scratch disks
    b. "Fit Content to Available Space" use
    Please review and let us know what is happening.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed

    Hallo! I use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on my computer (PC, windows 7). When I try do re-open my projects on Adobe Premiere Elements I get the message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed. The file type of my saved projects is: Adobe Premiere Elements Project (.prel). The same happens when i try to re-open the auto save files. This is very annoying because I losse all my earlier work. I would be really grateful for help. Best regards, Stefan

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12 will launch and then vanish

    Okay so just bought Adobe Premiere Elements 12. Loaded it up and went to run it. First time I ran it I get the Adobe Premiere Elements 12 Launch pad, you know where you select the Organizer or the video editor. I select video editor, it gives me a sub menu asking if I'm opening an existing Project or a new project. I select new project. the Video editor opens and I get a pop up windows stating "Please Log-in with an Admin account to access Adobe premiere Elements." I hit 'ok' and the video editor promptly vanishes leaving me at the launch pad which I close. I go to the short cut, right click on it and select "run as administrator." and I re-launch the program. Back to launch pad, select video editor, select new project. The video editor loads and appears to be working for about 3 seconds and then it vanishes. No error window, no crash report nothing. Just 'pop' it's gone.
    Any idea what I can do about this? I'd really like to use the software I just bought.

    - the NVIDA GeForce GTX 460 is my only video adapter.
    e. Does the problem exist with and without antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    - Yes. I shut off Kaspersky and tried running the program via the launch pad. no change.
    You say that the crashes occur when you select Video and new project. What happens if you select Organizer instead? Still crash?
    - If I go into Organizer the system seems to run fine. I loaded Organizer about 20 minutes ago and it's still up and running just fine. But in that same time span I've tried to launch premier elements several times. It still crashes after a few seconds.
    New data though. Can't tell if it's from Premier, or something else. a couple minutes after the latest attempt to run Premiere Elements I found a new window with the header "CAHeadless Debug Event". The Window reads:
    CAHeadless has encounter an error.

You need to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat to discuss that as soon as possible if that is something of interest to you. There may be some debate about the way to make contact, but, if you purchased from Adobe direct as an online download, I would contact Adobe Chat by clicking on the following and following through with Chat Panel.

    If the link does not open as set, then you will need to navigate to Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
    If you stay with 12, then there are several areas to pursue
    1. Can you open the program by going to the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file, right clicking it and selecting Run As Administrator, and then double clicking the .exe in an attempt to open the program direct to the editor?
    See
    Local Disk C
    Program Files
    Adobe
    Adobe Premiere Elements 12
    and in the Adobe Premiere Elements 12 Folder are the Adobe Premiere Elements 12.exe and Adobe Premiere Elements.exe. You want the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file.
    2. If you create a new User Account with Administrative Privileges and install and run Premiere Elements 12 from there, does the program open?
    3. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Adobe premiere elements 12 with diamond vc500 one touch video capture device.

    Adobe premiere elements 12 and using Diamond vc500 one touch video capture device.
    AVI files will not load into Adobe premiere elements 12.
    I bought what I thought were the two best software and capture devices.
    I am archiving old VHS tapes and using Diamond vc500 capture software called EZ grabber. I thought the best archiving format would be AVI files. As I just started this project. I am willing to do what is needed.
    That even being, going and buy another capture device that being for a VCR to PC using a USB are even a Video card.
    EZ grabber software ask you to record in what format. I picked AVI. There is DVD - SVCD - VCD - MPG4. I want to archive then go back and edit. The DVD or SVCD format, is that not the same as mpeg 2?
    You and I know the drill. Saving in what long term archive format and that dare thing about video compression and losing quality of the videos. Its all a nightmare.
    Once again I am willing to buy another capture device for a VCR that will work with Adobe premiere elements 12.
    Help please with long term archiving format and capture device.
    Thanks

    The answer is B.
    Capturing the VHS content to computer (via the Diamond vc500 and USB connection and EZ grabber) to obtain an .avi file on your computer and then trying to import that into Premiere Elements with its Add Media/Files and Folders?
    When I do that, the Adobe premiere elements 12 crashes or only loads a 2 mins of video.
    The firewire connection device "Canopus" product sounds great. But I really don't want to spend that much on my home videos. My PC does not have a Firewire connection. So add a new card for that and the Canopus product. I could just pay someone to do my VHS tapes.
    Diamond vc500 $35
    Adobe premiere elements 12 $65
    Firewire card $50 plus
    Canopus $180
    $330 is way too much for simple home VHS videos

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 10 not working on both my Computer

    I just bought Adobe Premiere Elements 10 to use with my Sony Handycam HDR-XR160 but it just dont work
    I first try to install on my PC: Intel Quad Q6600 with 8 Gig of Ram and a 500 Go WD Black Edition and a GeForce 9800 GT with 1 Gig of Video Memory .... really jerky video editing interface and the play back is really bad a lot of pixellization all over and also really realy jerky
    then I tried with My Mac Pro 2008 2XQuad Core Xeon 10 Gig of Ram 2 x 1TB WD Black Edition (Scratch Folder on second HD) and a ATI  Radeon HD 3870 same problem but now the video play back just stop every 5 seconde it s also hard just to drag the video in the time line at the botom of the screen
    This is computer I use for My Recording Studio and it's working like a DREAM. I did the same manipulation with other program like IMovie and so on with NO PROBLEM AT ALL .... and the interface was responsive unlike Premiere
    I bought your programe thinking I was going for a upgrade from what I was using before and now I can't take it back cause the box is open so please tell me you have a fix or someting cause at the moment ...  i'm really not to impress
    Thanks for the help

    Hello Steve
    Thanks for a your help
    I still have the same problem I did change the recording from 60p to 60i but the video are still jerky , I know i'm probably the one who's got the problems but I just don't see it !!!
    This is the setting I have on my Camera:       Image Quality/Size
                                                                      Image Quality = HD
                                                                      Frame Rate = 60i
                                                                      Recording mode = High Quality FH
                                                                      x.v.Color = On
                                                                     Connection
                                                                     TV Type = 16:9
                                                                     Component = 1080p/480i
                                                                     HDMI Resolution = Auto
                                                                     CTRL FOR HDMI = On
    From thoes Info can you tell me what's the Best Preset in Premiere or if someone is using premiere with a Sony Handycam HDR-XR160 can you tell me your exact settings for both the Cam and Premiere
    Thanks

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 7 With Worthless Error Messages.

    I have been a programmer since 1984, and if I saw a programmer in my team wrote these worthless error messages, I would go into my office and kill myself.
    I Googled them, and I found them discussed; but the responses were of no use to me, mostly.
    1. The error message I got that brought me to the edge of a cliff is: "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that require Adobe Premiere Elements to shutdown. We will attempt to save your current project."
    Then it crashed.
    When I was taking Operating Systems in my computer science class, a crash means you will get no more than 60 (out of 100). At IBM, a crash is always a SEVerity 1 issue. There is no way around it. Crash means the program is worthless.
    I Googled it, and Adobe suggested it could be some drivers using virtual audio. I uninstalled everything I could find, and this problem is not going away. I looked at the sound device configuration, and it's using physical audio, not virtual audio.
    I uninstalled Premiere Elements 7 five times and reinstalled them. They still failed. Finally, I reinstalled it at a different location, and it managed to "Found default catalog. Trying to open the  default catalog." Then crashed.
    If I wanted to use the default catalog, I would have said so. If I knew where they are, I would have set them on fire.
    Anyway, I have a project due this afternoon, and I am stuck with these worthless Adobe Premiere Elements 7 error messages. No wonder Steve Jobs banned Adobe Flash. They are pretty worthless.
    Sorry I am so upset, because none of you need to read my frustration; but I am up to my neck with Adobe. Once I get my project done, and I am switching to SONY Vegas.
    But, for now, would someone tell me how to get rid of these problems so I can get the video edited? Thank you.

    I noticed these errors were reported years ago, and Adobe has done NOTHING to improve it.
    Go back to my little list of how problems, crashes and errors sort out. That was how it was way back with Premiere programs, and how it still sorts out.
    Even the patch for PrE 8 was mainly to get it functioning with nVidia and ATI graphics cards. Yes, those "fixes" probably straddle the line between Bugs and system, with a nod towards Bugs. I know that Adobe takes their Bugs very seriously, and work overtime trying to find fixes for those, that do exist. Though it took a bit of time, as they gathered info, still Adobe had a patch, and that is rare for PrElements, due to the normal lifespan of that program.
    I provide some of the same answers today, that I did years ago, to fix the problems. In nearly every case, things sort out per that list. As "system" is both #1 and is also by far the largest segment of causes, that is where I begin looking. With PC's, there are myriad configurations, and most are not suited for video editing. Too many load up their e-machine and expect to edit HD material. Obviously, that is not the case here, but there could still be equipment incompatibilities, or just some tweaking needed. I see similar in the PrPro forum, as the Mac-users put the program on their MacBook Pros, with one tiny HDD, and a very weak CPU, and things go horribly wrong. If PrE was ported for the Mac, we'd have the same issues here. Usually, my first question will be about the I/O sub-system, i.e. the HDD's, their size, speed, free space, controller type and how they are allocated. Video editing is highly I/O intensive, and most computers are not even close to being able to efficiently handle it. I recommend a minimum of 3x SATA, physical HDD's, and suggest that they be setup to spread the I/O workload over all three. Some manage with a 2x I/O, but that is below MY minimum, and is the real minimum from Adobe. A single HDD I/O is just going to cause bottlenecks, and there is no way around that.
    Once, it was more the domain of the PC, that one had system issues, as Mac's were so limited and controlled. Now, as they have gained the ability to expand beyond the absolute control of Apple, those users are finding out that systems DO matter.
    Notice #2 - Assets. Not all AV material is meant to be edited. Some, like AVCHD (a consumer format) will require a pro-level computer, just to get smooth playback! The second most common issue is trying to edit material that has something like the Xvid, or DivX CODEC.
    Number 3 - Project, is very important too. One must match their Project Preset to their source footage. If not, then there will be problems. The failure to do this match is one of the biggest causes of issues, though usually not crashes, or hangs.
    Number 4 - OE, is when a user decides to push a button, and expects something else to happen, and often because that's how it worked in another program. Many argue with me that #2 and #3 are OE too, but I am much more lenient, than they are.
    Then, there ARE the Bugs. PrPro CS4 had a bunch. CS4.1 fixed a few, but broke some other things. It was not until CS4.2, that things got corrected, mostly, with that version. Then, CS5 hit, and seems quite good, but has a few Bugs too. Some were left over from CS4. A new update for CS5 is coming, and soon. Will it also fix those lingering Bugs? Only time will tell. Will it be a perfect program? Doubtful, but I'll bet that it'll be a "better" program.
    Think back to when you started programming. You were writing apps. for the majority of the install-base. However, what happened if the user had Extended Memory? What happened if they had Expanded Memory? What happened if they had both, and a software manager to handle those? Most still had 640KB. By that time, I had 2GB, though my MoBo could only handle 1GB with the managers. How could you write for me? I was 1:1000000, or maybe even less. I had to do my programming on the fly, and often had boot discs for different programs. It's not that much different now, except that I would not be such a rarity any more, but hardly mainstream.
    I'll bet that we can sort much out, by tackling the "Big 3," and then working down, if necessary.
    I like doing test Projects, keeping things simple, and testing as we make them more complex. That helps isolate the issues in most cases. In another thread, the poor user says that all Project Presets, all formats and all Export setting yield issues. My first thought is to isolate on one Project Preset, one set of Assets, and see if it's a system issue.
    Sometimes it's easy, and that is good, 'cause the user gets to editing and not fritzing so much. Just nailed one in Encore, but the poster gave me all the data necessary, and my memory did not fail me (maybe it was not "wine-thirty yet?). One post, and one correct answer. Life is good. Sometimes, it takes days, and many posts, to narrow things down. In but a few, there is an answer. In those (like the PGC error in Encore) one never does really solve the issue, and the only hope is to get the OP to start over, do everything by the book, and hope for the best, this time around.
    Good luck, and be assured - I do feel your pain. If I have not had one of THOSE error messages, believe me, I have read of them too many times.

  • Adobe premiere elements 10.0 uses more than 100% cpu on macbook pro lion osx 10.7.3

    Hello All,
    We have a macbook pro 17" 2.66Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB DDR3 running lion osx 10.7.3.
    When trying to run a video in adobe premiere elements 10.0, the video really lags. I checked the activity monitor and the cpu usage for the elements app process goes above 100%. Sometimes even 170%.
    No wonder why its struggling to render the video.
    Anyone noticed this issue too?
    All suggestions welcome.
    regards
    Ankit

    Hello OgelThorpe,
    Thank you for the suggestion. I will try that soon. My macbook meets well over the hardware requirements for that package. Also only the cpu usage is high, i have 4GB ram and only 500-700 MB of that gets used by adobe premiere.
    I have have run the hardware test in a loop and it passed everytime, so i dont doubt the hardware.
    regards
