Opening a new project: no choice possible DV - HDV

Hi all,
recently got a problem when trying to open a new project. The pop-up menu allows DV only, the second choice is no longer available. It presumably happened when I deleted all projects I have done in AVCHD in the meanwhile. My video format is m2ts (Panasonic HDC-SD100). My PC hardware: Intel dual-core 2.8 GHz, 3.5 GB RAM, MSI Nvidia GeForce N9600GT 1GB DDR3 running under Windows XP 3rd ed. and Premiere CS4.
Thanks for any help.
Arno

Looks like Harm got the points, and well-deserved ones, I might add.
He's made me a deal, that if he gets the "lunch" at the Adobe cafeteria, he'll pick me up in Arizona to be his "guest," on his way from Holland to San Jose! I'll host him as my guest, but he'll have to find a way to get to Phoenix.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS do I get any points for a "nice" reply, even if it didn't really help you, like Harm's reply did???????

Error while opening a new project

Hello,
Our team has been working on RoboHelp 7 for some time now. I recently joined the team and they had asked me to work on RoboHelp 8 and give them a presentation on the same. I downloaded a trail version of RoboHelp 8 and installed it.
Problem:
When I open RoboHelp 8 and select Application Help or Blank Project, I start getting errors (I have tried all other options too with no luck).
Process:
Open RoboHelp 8
Select "Application Help" under "Create New"
On Clicking "Finish"
The following errors occur
And so on... It continues with a lot of other errors.
Any suggestion on how to open a new project with out these errors will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Calcasmy.

You wouldn't necessarily be aware of the problems when installing. Have you specifically checked with your IT that they do not store your profile on the network. That bit is important.
Then try http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/installing/installing.htm and see the Problem Installations section. One link helps with installs that have failed and the other removes installations more deeply than the programs own uninstall routine. You may need to install again for RevoUninstaller to work.
I suggest you work with IT using either of the links.

When I open a new project what format do I use with clips from Canon Legria (1440x1080)?

I have Premiere Pro CS 5.5 and a Canon Legria HF S100 digital video camera. My frames are 1440x 1080. I have a widescreen Sony tv on which I want to play my video when it has been edited and burnt.
When I opened a new project in Premiere Pro I set it as follows:
Editing Mode: DV Pal
DV Pal Widescreen 23 KHZ
Pixel aspect D1/DV Pal Widescreen 16:9
However, I burnt the sequence as an experiment and lost lots due to cropping in the final version.
I used to have Premiere Elements. If memory served I set it as AVCD Full HD 1080i. I had no problems. I tried the AVCD 1080i setting on Premiere Pro but this didn't work either. I still got cropping.
Which settings are adviseable to ensure I can see the full clip on screen when it has been burnt? In addition, what is the difference between Anamoprhic and square pixels?
Sorry for banal questions. I got Premiere Pro because I was frustrated with Elements constantly crashing. I have to confess to being totally bewildered by the techinical information that I've read.

Best is to edit in HD and export to SD.
You need the AVCHD 1080i 25 Anamorfic.
Or drag a clip into the New Item icon which will give you a matching sequence for your footage.

Measures to toubleshoots already taken:
- reinstall premiere and photoshop elements

For now I am assuming that you are running Premiere Elements 9 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit......and, that the problem exists with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.....
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9 running on? Have you installed the 9.0.1 Update for the program? If not, please do so from the following link from Adobe
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4929
You can install the above even with Premiere Elements 9 closed.
Can we assume that you did that when you wrote
- install all updates
Did you delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file, and, if that did not work, the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
Can we assume that you have when you wrote
- delete all elements files from users and program folder
When was the last time you used the program successfully?
When you did the uninstall/reinstall, did you do the sequence
1. Uninstall via Control Panel
2. free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts)
CCleaner - Download
3. reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled
Let us start here and then decide what next based on your details.
Thank you.

I have installed Premiere Elements 8 on a new PC. It won't open any new projects

I seem to have the same problem as LaxMan2010-11 in Premiere Elements 8 won't load recently saved project was there a resolution?

3gpmark
Problems with the same symptoms can (often do) have different causes.
So, let us focus in on your particular situation in order to find your answer.
What computer operating system is involved? For now I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
1. Have you gone through that usual drill in the older thread that you referenced?
a. latest version of QuickTime installed
b. problem looked at with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled
c. video card/graphics card driver up to date
Now...
1. Do you have installed the 8.0.1 Update. If not, please do so using the Adobe online link
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0.1 update
2. Are you running the program from a User Account with Administrator Privileges and with Run As Administrator applied to the
program's desktop icon?
3. Is your problem confined to opening saved closed project created with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 on another computer? If yes, then
open a new project and make sure that the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalzyer features are turned off.
4. Have you moved, deleted, or renamed folders/files that were imported into the project(s) after the project's was saved and closed?
Please review the following Adobe document on troubleshooting damaged projects and determine if any of the suggested troubleshooting
works for you.
Troubleshoot damaged projects | Adobe Premiere Elements
We will be watching for your follow up.

Can I open a new project with 5 or 10 bins already in the browser?

Hi,
I'm wondering if I have to create and name five to ten bins every time I open a new project. Or is there a way to set FCP preferences to have a certain amount of bins and their names open every new project?
Thanks

You could however, create a "template" project. If you new the bins were going to be named the exact same thing for every project.
Just create a project, set up your bins and save as "template.fcp" (or whatever the fcp extension is, I can't remember right off hand.) Keep that somewhere you can find it, and then open it up and save it as a new project name anytime you need a project with that set up.
I do this for my projects because there is another editor that I work with that doesn't keep his browser very organized, so it was hard for me to figure out where he put everything when it was my turn to come in and finish the edit. So I created a template that had bins called "Graphics" "Animations" "Music" "Sound efx" "Sequences" etc.
Helps keeps things orderly.
Hope that helps
Chris

Just installed Premiere and can not open a new project, database error

Everytime I try to open a new project i get a Database is "Failed to perform the database operation as the Organizer database is busy. Please try again later."
Anyone had this problem yet?

PatrickClay
Of prime importance...what version of Premiere Elements are you working with and on what computer operating system is it running on?
So, right now a lot of generalizations
1. Close all opened projects and programs.
2. Right click the Taskbar at the bottom of computer desktop to bring up Task Manager/Processes. Look for and End Process for any traces of Premiere Elements and/or Elements Organizer whose process remained opened after you closed the program.
3. Open Premiere Elements to its Splash screen where hopefully you will see tabs for Organizer and Video Editor. Hold down the Ctrl+Alt+Shift keys of the computer main keyboard (altogether) as you do a left mouse click hold down on the Organizer tab for about 15 seconds. After that time, release just the mouse click hold down. Wait for a message about deleting the preferences/settings file. Click Yes to the message that should appear. Unhold the Ctrl+Alt+Shift, and then click on Organizer or Video Editor and try to open the Video Editor or Elements Organizer sections of the program without error.
4. Did that work for you? If not, please supply more details.
We are looking forward to your follow up with the outcome and getting your issue resolved.
Thanks.

Cannot seem to open a new project with a height less than 100px

Hi
Surely there is not a minimum limit on the size of project I can work with in Captivate. I'm trying to open a new project that is 968 x 30 px but it will not let me and defaults back to 100px height.
Is there a way for me to achieve this or is this a flaw in Captivate? I'd be suprised if theu have set a limit on minimum height!
Cheers
D

Hi there
Not sure if it's a "flaw", but it's been that way for as long as I can recall. Keep in mind that Captivate is really designed for capturing screens and creating things that are substantially larger than 100 px.
If you disagree with this and feel it should change, please consider submitting a Wish Form to ask for a change. (Link is in my sig)
Cheers... Rick

Prelude takes a long time to open a (new) project file

Hi,
I'm trying out Prelude, and I've created a new project and ingested (via link) about 20 hours of Canon XF footage in about 1000 files from an internal hard drive. All the media loaded correctly and all the audio peak files were generated.
When I close and reopen Prelude and try to open that project, the "loading project" window pops up, the progress bar proceeds to completion over a few seconds, and the window goes away. The issue is that Prelude is then unresponsive for the next ten or fifteen minutes! I can see the entire interface, but nothing responds. I can see the clips listed, but their thumbnails are not loaded. Windows System Monitor tells me Prelude is actively using CPU and accessing the disk. After 10-15 minutes, the thumbnails appear and I'm able to use Prelude, but this seems like a LONG time to load a not-so-big project on a pretty new system. Is this normal?
My system has one of the new i7-4770k processors, 16 GB of RAM, a Samsung 840 SSD for the system drive, and an internal Seagate 3TB 7200 RPM drive as the media drive for this project, so I would expect loading to be pretty snappy. While Prelude is unresponsive, system monitor shows it using 15-20% CPU, 11 GB of RAM, and only 5-10 MB/s disk access. I've tried recreating the project file from scratch several times, with the same result every time.
Is this wait time normal? Is there any way I can speed it up?
If it's still loading, it seems like it should provide some feedback about that, too.

Hi Michael,
I tested out Prelude with approximately half of the same footage of my
larger project. It still had a brief unresponsive period but,
interestingly, the relationship to the amount of footage didn't seem to be
linear. Whereas a project with all the footage takes 10 minutes, this one
only took about a minute.
I should also point out that, although this is all Canon XF footage and all
the media is in numbered subdirectories with metadata like on the card,
they are not contained within the "CLIPS001" directory that your Canon XF
importer uses to identify XF media. Therefore, when I import them, the
import dialog doesn't identify the media directories as such. I don't know
whether that makes a difference, just wanted to try to help narrow it down
in any way I can.
Hope that helps. Will you update me when you have something?
Thanks.

Opening a new Project, getting blank screen

When I start a new project, give it a name etc. I get the menu bar at the top and a black and blank screen (no Timeline or anything else). I have resorted to opening past projects and cleaning them out to begin another. What am I doing wrong? I am fairly new, so I know it's probably something that I am doing...
Thanks

Premiere Elements 12 won't open a new project

I recently installed premiere elements 12. It is the first time install of any version of this software. When I open the program and click on Video Editor, then New Project ...a black and purple ribbon scrolls for about 2 minutes, then nothing. I have a Dell Inspiron One2305 running Windows 7 - 64 bit, AMD 2.8 Ghz processor. I have 4 gb of RAM and 916 gb of hard disk space. Reading through suggestions, I have tried the following without success:
1. I updated the driver for the AMD 4200 Video Driver.
2. I loaded the software as the administrator, but I unstalled, then created a new administrator account, and reinstalled under the new administrator account.
I'm not a techie by any means, but I can follow directions pretty well. Any help is appreciated.

This is my processor: AMD Athlon II X2 240e
I also loaded the latest version of Quicktime today (forgot to put that in my "what I already tried")
I just ran the Windows Update and one failed with this error: Code 800B0100 Windows Update Encountered an Unknown Error. When I click Get Help with This Error, nothing runs.
Running Disk Clean up and Defrag now.

Thank you for trying to help, Bill.
I had read about the fingerprint problem in the forums and deactivated that before my first post.
I am reasonably proficient with CS6 web/design, but I don't have a lot of tech knowledge.
While working today, I had trouble with Acrobat X and had to uninstall/reinstall. I have done more restarts in the last 36 hours!
I uninstalled/reinstalled PrE ... in case something that I had done had helped! Organizer opens but not PrE.
I will put the EventViewer stuff at the end of the post. I didn't know there was an EventViewer until today!
It says something about PCI bus. I went to control panel, etc., devices and there were two instances of PCI bus. I asked Windows to update the driver for both and got a message that it had the most up to date driver. Also indicated they were working properly. When I sent the link at the bottom of the EventViewer info to Windows, I got a screen saying it was an unknown error.
I bought PrE on Saturday ... to replace NERO. I thought it would be more consistent with the other programs I use, but maybe I should cut my losses and go back to NERO??? What do you think?
I really do appreciate the help.

Wont open a new project

When you open garageband it comes up with usually a list of what you want to do new music project new podcast and so on. For some reason it wont let me click any of those icons listed. I cant even click the help sign. Well then i tried to click new under file and it wont let me do that either. It just does nothing when i click it. But if i open a pervios recording i did it will come up with that recording and i can do everything else but open a new recording and clicking some of those icons. I have no clue what it could be but im thinking it could be its missing a code for allowing me to do that but i might be wrong. Please repost if you no whats causing this.

it wont let me click any of those icons listed.
Somehow I'm picturing GB reaching out and grabbing your arm. But I'm sure you don't mean it won't let you, but rather nothing happens when you click the buttons, yes? (because if you have a version of GB that has an Arm, I'll buy it from you!)
The first two things I would suggest trying, in order:
o Repair Permissions
o Delete GB's prefs Files
. (Search your Hard Drive for "GarageBand" and delete the files that end in ".plist" and ".cs")

Mainstage will not open a new project

I have mainstage 2 on my macbook and when I open it and try to create a new project nothing happens?

Cant find any demo concert file? I reinstalled mainstage- same thing - wont open a new file
