Do you have any capture cards in the computer? For example, Blackmagic, Aja, Matrox, CineForm, etc.
If so, it's software might be causing the problem. Go to "Programs And Features" in the Vista Control Panel to remove the software for the capture card. Restart the computer and then try again.
Did you install any plug-ins for Premiere?
If so, remove them and see if the problem goes away.
Also, where are you saving your projects? Try saving one to your Desktop and see if you still have the problem. If you don't, then it could be a problem with your save location.

Acrobat Pro 9 freezes when trying to edit preferences

I have Acrobat Pro 9.3.4
When I try to Edit-> Preferences, the application locks up. It eventually goes to 'not responding" and I have to kill it using Task Manager.
I found this problem when I was troubleshooting a customer's issue where he could not Extract pages from a PDF document. The Extract window would come up, he would put in the pages he wanted and start the process. It would act like its going through the motions but nothing would happen and he would have to open task manager to stop the Acrobat process.
I was able to duplicate the problem with my Administrator account. I also found the same problem when I tried to go to Edit > Preferences. Acrobat went into a not responding state and I had to kill the process using Task Manager.
I have verified that the problem is not document specific: It happens on multiple documents. If I copy the document to another machine with Acrobat Pro 9, I have no problem Extracting pages.
I have uninstalled Acrobat Pro 9. That included removing c:\program files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\acrobat* and c:\program files\common files\Adobe\Acrobat\* I rebooted the computer and then reinstalled Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. Same problem for both my regular and my administrator accounts.
I have compared permissions and registry entries between this machine and one where its working but have not found any differences.
Any suggestions on what else to try would be greatly appreciated.

You would think. However, repairing Adobe, uninstalling (including deleting registry entries, c:\program files\common files\Adobe\Acrobat\* and c:\program files\Adobe\* , etc) did not resolve the issue.

ITunes 11.1 freezing when trying to edit preferences

After updating to 11.1, so I could update my iPhone to iOS 7, iTunes now freezes every time i try to edit preferences. As soon as I click Edit -> Preferences iTunes freezes. I must Ctrl-Alt-Del to end the program. I am using a Windows 7, Dell computer. Everything else seems to work prefectly until I click Preferences.
Does anyone else have this problem? Has anyone solved this problem? Any ideas howlong it takes Apple to solve these kinds of problems?

Even though no one replied, i fixed my problem.
Don't know if it will work for anyone else with similar problem
but all I did was a CHKDSK then a defragment of my laptop and now everything seems to be working fine.

Premiere CS4 freezing with ATI 4850

My system:
Intel Core i7-920 Bloomfield 2.66GHz
EVGA 141-BL-E757-TR LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX X58 SLI
Corsair 750W PSU
6GB DDR3
and I've upgraded from a Geforce 7800GT to an ATI XFX Radeon HD 4850.
Adobe Premiere CS4 freezes after a minute or so of playback with my ATI HD 4850. The screen literally freezes and I have no choice but to force a reboot. On my Geforce 7800GT, the playback is laggy/unresponsive but it never froze.
I've sent it in to XFX for repair previously because it wouldn't play back any HD video files. But now everything plays fine except playback in Adobe Premiere. XFX even sent me a benchmark test for Devil May Cry and because my computer passed, they refuse to RMA the card again.
I've tried EVERYTHING!
- Several different versions of the drivers: 10.4,10.3,9.11, all with no luck.
- Enable ATI Overdrive: when I auto-tuned it, it immediately crashed my computer and would do so consistently upon start-up so I had to disable it.
Any advice/comments/feedback would be greatly appreciated.
This is my second ever ATI card and I must say I've been very disappointed. I have never been able to have one work 100% for even a full 24 hours!!!

I had issues with my Radeon 4670, similar but not quite the same as yours. In my case, rolling back drivers to 9.11 was the solution, but it sounds like you've already attempted that. If that hasn't solved the problem, and you're only seeing the issue after a minute or so of running PPro (my issue revealed itself immediately), I would look at a cooling/overheating problem. The newer GPUs (even though the 4000 series isn't that new) run hot even when they're not doing anything, and once you put them under any sort of load, the temperatures skyrocket. And since yours crashes during the auto-tuning, this lends more creedence to this theory; I was able to clock mine all the way up, but it's got a big honkin' aftermarket cooler on it.
I'm assuming you didn't send your whole PC in when you RMA'ed the card, so, 1) you don't know what kind of setup they tested the card in and 2) you don't know if they tested the card at all. For all practical purposes, this card should work "fine" with CS4, so the likelihood increases that there is some sort of physical defect with the card or cooling. Other folks here have a better grasp of the hardware and how to get the most from it (I'm more of a plug-it-in-and-hope-it-works kind of guy), so they might be able to tell you some ways to test the card and check its operating temperatures.

Both elements 12 and premiere elements 12 crash and close when I click on edit - preferences - general

Elements 12 organizer crashes and say it has to close when I click on edit, preferences, general. Also, the text displayed on the organizer screen (such as the menu bar and the folder list in the sidebar) are so tiny I almost need a magnifying glass to read the words. How can I enlarge the font of the text? What do I need to do to resolve the oraganizer crashing and closing problem?

The Premiere Elements 12 Help PDF
http://help.adobe.com/archive/en/premiere-elements/12/premiere-elements_reference.pdf
You cannot import Premiere Elements Windows project files (prel) into a Mac version and vice versa. That I am sure on.
Files with the Mac preferred .mov and .mp4 should be expected to import.
The rest that you mention are probably under the should import but may need conversion, like mpg to mov.
But you need to make the distinction between files that will not import because of file properties versus how you
are importing the files into the project. What happens if you transfer some copies of your media stored to the external drive
to wherever one saves video to in Mac and then try to import the media into the project from there.

Reproducible both on x86_64 and i386 (acroread is 32bit anyway
on both platforms).

This is caused by deleting the libcurl.so.3.0.0 and using symlinks to
libcurl.so.4.0.0:
%elseif %suse_version >= 1030
rm
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%INSTALL_DIR/Adobe/Reader8/Reader/intellinux/lib/lib{crypto,ssl,curl,gcc_s, stdc++}.so*

That's correct, as to the sybmols and data structures, there was no change.
Only the few curl_easy_setopt() options that nobody uses anyway got removed.
E.g. Debian "cheats" by packaging a libcurl.so.3 -> libcurl.so.4 symlink, we
could do that too, either in the curl package or in acroread.rpm.
------- Comment #6 From Mike Fabian 2008-04-23 10:24:45 MST -------
[ ] Private
Apparently libcurl.so.3 and libcurl.so.4 are not as compatible as we
thought because keeping the libcurl.so.3.0.0 which comes with the
acroread tarball instead of creating symlinks to libcurl.so.4.0.0
make this problem go away.
------- Comment #7 From Mike Fabian 2008-04-23 11:48:55 MST -------

Even with the right version of libcurl it doesnt work.
With the right version of libcurl it is possible to
click on the Edit → Preferences → Reviewing category once.
Then one sees:
Shared Reviews
Check for new comments:
Every 15 minutes when the document is open [ | ]
Every 2 hours in the background [ | ]
Show Review Tracker Alerts:
Over a rolling window of 60 minutes [ | ]
[Cancel] [ OK ]
Click on [Cancel] or [ OK ] and exit acroread.
Restart acroread.
Click on Edit → Preferences.
Hangs already.
------- Comment #8 From Mike Fabian 2008-04-23 11:54:18 MST -------
[ ] Private
After entering the Reviewing setup dialog once and exiting
acroread, there are two sockets in the configuration directory:
mfabian@magellan:~$ ls .adobe/Acrobat/8.0/Synchronizer/
Commands= adobesynchronizersLockObj-lock metadata/
Notification= adobesynchronizersu80
mfabian@magellan:~$
After deleting these sockets
rm .adobe/Acrobat/8.0/Synchronizer/{Commands,Notification}
one can enter the Edit → Preferences → Reviewing dialog again. But
only for one session, the problem reappears after the next restart of
acroead because the sockets are there again.
------- Comment #9 From Mike Fabian 2008-04-23 11:56:17 MST -------

Therefore, using the libcurl.so.3.0.0 which comes with acroread
doesnt help all that much. Delays the hang somewhat but thats it.

The problem described in comment #7 and comment #8 happens
both on x86_64 and i386 platforms.

Hi, After I try to load either an existing or new project in Adobe Premier Elements 9 I just get a blank grey screen with none of the timeline, etc. boxes on view. This has suddenly happened, one day OK next not! At the top of the screen I get the normal Pre icon, File, Edit, Clip, etc.
I am planning on purchasing Premier Elements 13, would it be better if I bought a new program rather than download an upgrade, just in case the upgrade doesn't load properly due to the error with my existing program?
If I the deleted Premier Elements 9 on my PC would I lose all my existing videos that were produced using Premier Elements 9 or would they be saved so that they can still be worked on in Premier Elements 13?
Does Premier Elements 13 work with Windows 7?
Thanks
Terry

Premiere Elements 13 absolutely works with Windows 7!
In fact, I'd highly recommend you download the free trial and give it a test run.
Meantime, go to Windows Update and make sure you have all of the latest Windows updates, including those that don't install automatically. Then go to the nVidia or ATI site and ensure you have the latest driver for your graphics card, and go to Apple.com and ensure you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements.

I bought a new, larger external hard drive. I have my iTunes library on the external drive instead of C: drive, Using Windows 7.
I copied my itunes library from the old drive to the new one, changed the libarary location in Edit/Preferences/Advanced to the new drive.
iTunes will not start or run unless the old hard drive is plugged in.
If I disconnect the old drive iTunes shuts down.
Any ideas. ??

Hello kskip,
Thank you for providing so much information about what is going on. It sounds like you have setup iTunes to save new content to your new external hard drive in iTunes>Preferences, but it sounds like iTunes is not opening iTunes Library.itl file on the new external drive. You have one last step to take to have iTunes point to your new external hard drive rather than your old one:
Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
You should see the following screen:
Additional information
If you do not see the screen above, then you did not hold the correct key at the correct time. You may want to try again. Note that if you pinned iTunes to the Start menu programs, and open it that way, it may not work.
Once you select "Choose Library," you will need to navigate to the iTunes Library.itl file on your new external drive.

Any work you do in Lightroom is in the catalog. It is impossible to use Lightroom without a catalog.
In addition, your photos are filed in a specific location, which is determined when you import the photos (this may be a location you have specified or it may be the default location chosen by Lightroom).
So ... unless you specifically choose to delete your photos, your photos have not been deleted. To find them, open Lightroom and select File->Open Recent and select each catalog shown there until you find the one with your 170 photos.
And now ... a word to the wise: as gvb279 and Keith said, you absolutely need to stop doing whatever it is you are doing and learn the basics of Lightroom. You are clearly in need of such basic understanding. In addition to the links given above, there are many valuable instructional tutorials here: Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV

Hi Pat
Regrettably your reply did not help at all.
I had previously seen the link you gave me. However it gave no assistance as it provided no link to any of the offered solutions or advice of how to use the advice
Your reply would have been helpful, if you had told me, what it took me another +/- 30 mins to find out, that the link was in V10.
You can now help me by advising why was it removed and what alternate feature V11 uses to achieve the same purpose?

After I updated my 2 Iphones and one Itopuch the bluetooth on one of the phones and the Itouch will not stay on. When you go to the general settings to turn it on it shows on but the icon disapears when you go to home scree or leave general seetings.

After I updated my two Iphone 4's and my Itouch bluetooth problem occurred on two of the three devices. One of the phones and the itouch will not keep the bluetooth on. When you go to the general settings to turn it on it show on and the icon pops up but as soon as you leave the general settings the icon disappears and will not show up in the home screen. It will not pair with any devices. It will search for and find them but won't pair because the icon will not show up meaning it is off. What can i do to fix this problem that I believe was caused by the update.

Sounds like we have a similar problem. Four days ago I was playing music through a wireless Bose speaker via bluetooth and everything was fine. Then I was texting while listening and got 2 texts about the same time as I was typing one and my phone went black. I pushed the home button and it worked, went into my texts and all were there. However ever since then the time isn't right, so it can't keep time no matter what I do. The bluetooth works only at times, the wifi keeps jumping on and off, sometimes my data won't work and the other day I couldn't even turn it off, so had to wait until it died. The battery life display at that moment wasn't correct either. Took to Verizon, they couldn't help. Suggested a factory reset, which I did last night and still the same issues! One day I couldn't even text my husband on his iPhone. Just wouldn't work at all. Did everything suggest and still not good. Seems like after stalking these pages today a lot of people are having this problem in Dec/Jan and of course also I'm 3 weeks out of my 1 year warranty and so were many others, by days. Very strange, and all on the 5C. What did you do? Is it working now?
