New Project will not save, re-open with accurate or matching audio and video.

I filmed footage last week. Uploaded it into Premiere Elements and edited the footage in Elements, and saved my work as a project. I opened Elements this morning, and upon opening my saved project I was prompted by the program to locate the file. When I then selected the raw footage files, it loaded the project, but with audio and video out of order, not synced, etc.
How do I save my work as a stand-alone project file with the audio and video synced as I intended, in a format that I can load, share, re-open and work on without having to re-locate the raw video?
This seems to be a basic function of Video Editing software, so I hope it is something small I can adjust and move on from. Oh Also all the files, both project (.prel) and raw footage (.mov) are saved on the desktop of the computer i am using to run Premiere Elements.

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
After you have created a project and it has been saved, you should be expected to be able to reopen the project with the
project as before the save/close (some discussion about rendered files remaining rendered, but essentially as written).
When they do not, we can invoke the damaged project syndrome.
The following is an Adobe document on that subject.
Troubleshoot a damaged project file | Adobe Premiere Elements
If you are getting "Where is the file....?" messages when re-opening a saved closed project, typical reasons
a. you have moved, deleted, or renamed files and folders that were imported into the project after the save close...when
you import media into a project, all you get are copies of the originals in the project. But the project needs to trace back
to the originals in the hard drive location where those originals were when first imported into the project.
b. if you store your source media on an external hard drive, the external hard drive may be malfunctioning and/or the
drive letter of the external drive changing for a variety of reasons. Does any of that apply to you.
Please review and consider, and then we can decide what next.
Thanks.

    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running on?
    Has the program ever opened to the Expert workspace or the Quick workspace?
    Some of the typical drill questions:
    1. Does the problem exist with and with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? Do you have any other security programs
    on your computer?
    2. Are you running the program as Administrator in a home computer in contrast to a school or company network?
    3. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements?
    5. What video card/graphics card does your computer use and is the driver version up to date according to the
    web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    How far do you get...Welcome Screen, Video Editor, New Project or elsewhere? Any error messages?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere Elements 12, New Projects will not open

    I have tried to re-install Premiere Elements several times without solving the problem. I pick New Projects and it just goes into never never land and the arrow continues to spin. Then I have to X out of the program.

    Jim Ross
    What antivirus program does not your computer use...McAfee? If so, please disable it and determine if your issues are gone.
    Also, right click the Desktop Icon for Premiere Elements 12 and select Run As Administrator.
    If not....
    When you have uninstalled reinstalled the program, have you done so from the same installation files downloaded and purchased?
    Have you looked a uninstall, ccleaner run through for the computer, reinstall with antivirus and firewalls Off, using a new set of
    installation files either from your Orders at Adobe or from the following web site
    http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
    If you do use this link for the download, please read and follow that web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" so that you do not end up with Access Denied message.
    Have you ever gotten as far as to enter into the Expert workspace of the program?

  • New Firefox, will not save home page and opens up displaying all add-ons every time!

    Okay - for YEARS now I've used ONLY Firefox - it had the best extensions and add-ons of any other browser out there. Add to it, it was safe and very quick. So it was my default browser.
    This week I logged into my DeviantArt site and odd advertisements started showing up in the lower left and right corners of the browser, unlike anything I'd ever seen before. Add to it, they were very inappropriate! So I assumed that something was wrong, and went through three, as in 3, programs to find out if I had any 'bugs' causing the problems. And of course, there was some kind of nasty bug in Firefox causing all kinds of issues.
    So, following the suggestions of the fixer, plus the suggestions here, I deinstalled Firefox (21) then reinstalled the newer version, 23. At first, I thought, "Wow, that is really fast!". When I opened Firefox it didn't go to my home page, it went to the Firefox startup page, along with opening tabs for EVERY add-on and extension!
    So, opened Tools, Options and reset the home page to my home page, https://www.google.com
    Simple, and something I've done before. I'm a computer geek and have worked on my own additions. So, set up my home page, was working in Firefox, went to youtube to download a video and it wouldn't! So went to DLhelper, read their comments, changed one of the strings, and voila! No problems!
    So I thought it was fixed and I was happy. That was last night. This morning I boot the puter and the first thing I do is open Firefox . And what happens? Oh, yes, that's right, NOTHING THAT I WOULD HAVE WANTED! It's back to the Firefox startup page, and it opens tabs for EVERY SINGLE ADD-ON!
    Holy carp, getting tired now. So I research from 8 this morning until about an hour ago, so just over 5 hours I keep trying to fix it based on Firefox instructions. Go into about:config, work on the strings, change the home page info, etc. Save it. Go back to Tools, Options and there's my home page. Close Firefox and open it, and what the heck? Again, back to where it was, opening as if I just uploaded this browser. Now I've spent literally HOURS trying to fix this and I'm so frustrated that I'm just about ready to de-install it! My one complaint is that I searched all over to try and find this same problem and cannot find it. Is that true, I'm the only one with this bizarre problem???

    EDIT - Now that it's fixed, I shall remove my negative comments where I can. Oddly, the final reset fixed it...

  • Project will not save

    I've just started having a problem with Captivate that has
    cost me a fair amount of work. It's happened twice now, both times
    late in the day after using Captivate all day long, but on numerous
    projects. What happens is that suddenly the slide screen goes all
    black (although I can see highlights, mouse, etc.). I save the
    project and it appears to save just fine, but when I try to close
    the program it asks me if I need to save again. Being safe, I click
    'yes', and it looks like it saves the project again. However, the
    project does not close, and no saved file appears in my folder.
    This leaves me essentially trapped, unable to close the
    program without losing all my work. Of course, if I click 'no' when
    it asks me if I want to save, the program closes. But then I've
    lost everything since my last successful save.
    (PS- Does Captivate have an autosave feature like most other
    programs? I can't find it to set the autosave time.)
    Very frustrating!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    bobby

    Hi Bobby
    During the Captivate classes I conduct, I normally advise
    participants that if they will be using Captivate intensively
    through the day, they should consider closing it down and
    restarting it periodically. I advise this because Captivate
    maintains an unlimited number of undo levels. I wondered if that
    was true one day, so I tested by performing action after action,
    then proceeding to use the undo function. I counted to about 288 or
    so before accepting that indeed it must be true.
    This also seems to reveal something about the application. It
    has to be storing that information
    somewhere. My educated guess is that it's storing things in
    a temporary files location. It might seem logical to surmise that
    perhaps this location is becoming too full and not allowing the
    save to complete. Note that I'm not claiming this is
    the issue here, only speculating about possibilities.
    You asked if there was an auto-save feature. Unfortunately,
    there is not. There used to be one in Captivate 1. But it never
    worked properly. The weird part about it is that during one of the
    betas for Captivate 2, it began working. Then it disappeared
    altogether and hasn't been seen since.
    Hopefully this helped a bit... Rick

  • New iPod will not sync song ratings with iTunes

    A few months ago I bought an iPhone (my first Apple MP3 player) and loaded it up with some music and everything worked fine between it and iTunes. I would rate some songs on the iPhone and synced it up with iTunes and it transferred those song ratings over with no problems.
    I later got rid of the iPhone and bought an iPod 4GB Nano and loaded it up with music but when I rated some songs and synced it up with iTunes it would not transfer the ratings over. It would transfer over the ratings fine from iTunes to the iPod but not the other way around. I removed and reinstalled iTunes and deleted the iTunes folder within the My Music folder on my computer and reloaded iTunes and imported all my music again. Restored and reset my iPod and tried again, it still will not transfer over the song ratings from iPod to iTunes.
    So I figured I got a screwed up iPod (it was a refurb) and decided to go ahead and upgrade. Bought a brand new iPod 8GB Nano and the same thing is happening again. Although it's not absolutely critical to be able to rate songs it helps in getting my music library sorted in deciding what to keep or not.
    Any idea what to do short of reinstalling Vista or moving my music library over to another computer to sync with?

    Hi, I just sorted out this problem for my ipod touch. Jose9550 and Chris in CA did not explain very well how it is to be sorted - their posts helped me but iI sort of discovered it by accident. My main problem was that the ipod did not update itunes with my track ratings made direct with the touch screen whilst listening to tracks.
    Here is how I found out how to sort it:
    Step 1: Click on the option in the summary screen to manually manage the music on you Ipod. Back up any tracks/playlists that you don't want to lose.
    Step 2: Create a few playlists with music that you want on Ipod
    Step 3: Click on your Ipod name in Itunes side bar and then select the Music tab on the main panel on the right. Now click on the check box "Sync Music". This will bring up a prompt that all your music /playlists currently on the Ipod may be erased. Accept this message and then click on check box "Selected playlists". Now pick the playlists/playfolders you want synced. Click apply.
    Step 4: Go into the menu bar in itunes and select Edit>Preferences>Devices> and uncheck box beside "Disable Automatic syncing for IPhones and IPods"
    Now any changes made to the playlists/tracks etc on the desktop or IPod will be transferred in both directions.

    How about an update on the Apple site that just recognizes these problems & promise a fix?

  • Using Mac OS, Firefox 3.6 will not save nor open html files with spaces in the file name. Will version 4.0 do this?

    I have hundreds of saved files with names that have spaces in them (like movie 10 41.html). I could not use Firefox 3.6 because it would not open these files for viewing and had to reinstall Firefox 3.5.8 which I have now. If I install Firefox 4.o, will I have the same problem? I use Mac OS 10.5

    I have Firefox 3.6.6, and now that Firefox 4.0 is available, it crashes constantly. Sometimes less than 5 minutes after I open it. I have a Mac 10.4.11, so Firefox 4.0 isn't an option for me. When I asked Ff to check my plug-ins it said there was an error and to check back later. Twice.
    Because I didn't have any (any) problems with my Ff before the upgrade became available, I am forced to question if Ff has done something to make the earlier version crash so you'll upgrade, but I can't afford to upgrade my Mac right now.
    In the meantime, I do need a browser that works! I dislike Safari, Chrome is also not available on Mac 10.4.11, and Explorer is just plain not available on Mac.
    Do you have any suggestions on how to fix my Firefox 3.6.6?

  • Illustrator CC 2014crashes on quit and will not save recently opened documents

    I read issues in combination with Extensis Suitcase and Fusion.
    I use FontExplorer X Pro. Could that be a partypooper too?
    Please help...

    Today I had a breakthrough and seemingly solved the issue. Indeed, like Monika said: turn it off. Well, sort of...
    I somehow manage to run two versions of Illustrator CC on my PC: Illustrator CC and Illustrator CC 2014.
    I don't know the exact difference between the two, but they seem to work side-by-side.
    In FontExplorer Pro I used the tools>plugin manager to uninstall the font management plugin from the Illustrator CC 2014 plugins folder.
    Then I uninstalled and reinstalled the same plugin from and into the Illustrator CC plugins folder and now the issue seems to be gone.
    Fingers crossed, but the last four times I ran and quit Illustrator CC 2014, I did NOT have crashes anymore and the recent documents menu item
    gets filled with.... recent documents, Yeahh.
    Thanks for the input, Monika!

    It's because your hardware does not have a 64-bit EFI boot ROM. There is no fix except to sell your computer and buy a newer model that is compatible:
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
