PE 10 shuts down when for no apparent reason

I have problem with Premier Elements closing during editing.
I have read as many posts on the subject as I can find. I have a Toshiba Satilite L500, Core 2, with 4 GRam, Windows 7 Premium Home. Just purchased and downloaded the PE10.
I have updated the latest Intel chip set video drivers, update all other software and drivers.
The program runs for a few minutes but as soon as I start to populate the timeline board I get a message the Adobe PE is no longer working. I have tried it several times and sometimes it works until I try to add an effect or transition.
The organizer keeps working through the process.

  • Iphone 4s turns/shuts down completely for no known reason, why?

    my new iphone 4s shut down completely...and only holding the home button and on/off button reboots the phone.  but what causes it to automatically shut down to the point where itunes does not recognize the phone?

    Ok, well thanks for confirming this.
    I have two other questions...
    I found this : '' If you're getting the unit fixed by Apple, be aware that you must have the original HD installed. If it's a third-party SSD or hybrid, Apple will tack $950 to the bill; if you don't have the original drive anymore, Apple will return your laptop unrepaired. '' 
    Is that true ? Because I actually have a hybrid HD and don't have the original...nor 950 $ ...
    I found this information on : http://logicboardmac.blogspot.ca
    Finally, I also found information about a flat rate repair option ?

  • Acrobat XI breaks down printing for no apparent reason until restart.

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a very weird situation in the office. One of our employees would have her computer stop printing from office and acrobat for no reason and then freeze both office and Acrobat until restart. Restart fixes the situation for a few hours but then it would happen again.
    We are a document service business, so pdf (read, create, edit), Office Suite and printing are the bread of what we do and having downtime for 10-15 minutes twice a day is not really ideal.
    The reason that led me to believe Acrobat is the culprit is because I have been combing through the Event Viewer Logs looking for something to help me diagnose the problem. I did not find anything specific enough to let me drill deeper but everytime this happen I would get a 1002 application hang error of the follwoing sort:

    Things I have tried so far - repairing Office, repairing Acrobat, running several adobe tools to troubleshoot acrobat problems, disable protected view, re-installed printers.. My next step will be to wipe the OS although I would really love to not have to do that because of downtime and other considerations.
    Please respond if you have ever experience such problem. We have about 30 workstations within the office, all with more or less the same software and hardware and this is the only one we have these annoying issues with.
    Thank you

    veseling47731589,
    Some further observations ...
    You say that this is happening only on one of a number of systems similarly configured? Is there any difference in how the printer drivers are configured? And difference in printer driver versions or settings?
    Also, is this happening when printing to a specific printer, to any number of printers, etc.? Can you share what particular printer model(s) you are printing to, the PDL used (PCL, PostScript, etc.)?
    Acrobat as well as other Adobe applications usually stress both video and printer drivers much more than other applications due the graphical complexity of what often needs to be rendered. In the case of PostScript printers, these applications “pass through” PostScript to the printer via the driver and spooler using special printer driver “escapes” designed by Microsoft and Adobe. If you have a custom PostScript driver or the Microsoft driver with vendor/printer model-specific plug-ins, there may be an issue there.
    You obviously know your way around Windows if you have gotten to the point of knowing about the Spooler service and experimenting with restarting same.     I'll think about this one some more and see if I can guess at some other issues that might cause this. I guess the good and bad news is that this is only on one of  your systems.

    Hi ohmghimire,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you're seeing unexpected behavior when using USB devices, try resetting the SMC on your MacBook Pro:
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    You can find the article with these steps here:

  • W500 broke down for no apparent reason

    Dear all,
    I have a W500 that worked fine for 4 years and suddenly started being faulty for no apparent reason.
    I've searched the web and tried many fixes, but I still haven't been able to pinpoint the problem. At this point I suspect that the problem might implicate faulty hardware, though I am not sure. I would really appreciate any suggestions that could help me figure it out and (hopefully) fix it.
    The laptop is a ~5 year-old W500 that came with Vista install but was upgraded to windows 7 after a couple of months. I made the BIOS upgrade at that point, but not since.
    After trying to rescue it without success, I eventually reset the BIOS to default settings and reinstalled windows 7, and I am now able to use the computer but with many persisting problems.
    Current symptoms
        Slow boot time (4-5 min until I can start using windows) with occasional failure to start windows (hangs for hours before log on screen, but without crashing)
        Initially failed to shut down, but uninstalling the dvd drive in windows seems to have fixed this.
        Black screen appears on two occasions during boot. (1) between the "please wait" screen and the log on screen, and (2) after logging after the "welcome" screen. Each stays for around a minute (I guess they also show on healthy systems but too short to be noticed)
        Windows is generally slow and prone to failures. Browsing windows explorer sometimes works fine, sometimes hangs for several tens of seconds. Launching programs takes an unreasonable amount of time (up to several minutes in some cases). Installing programs is incredibly slow and often fails.
        Initially, after reinstalling windows, it looked like windows explorer did not refresh itself automatically anymore: if I created a new folder for example, it would not appear until I hit the refresh button. Somehow, this issue seems to have resolved itself, perhaps when uninstalling the cdrom, but I couldn't swear.
        Booting in safe mode hangs after loading CLASSPNP.sys, which apparently is a recurring problem. In my case, after re-installing the OS it only hangs for 2-3 minutes and eventually safe mode successfully starts.
        Yesterday the graphics driver failed multiple times, which never occurred before (well, maybe once, and a long long time ago). The first time the computer restarted automatically, and the next couple of times the screen just went black but the computer was still running.
        Apparently I am unable to restore to factory state using the rescue&recovery environment. The partition which I believe to be the recovery partition (it has drive letter D: and no name, it guess this happened when installing the new OS) cannot be accessed from DOS (I/O error comes up, I am not sure if this is normal or not), and browsing it in windows explorer causes it to freeze. In safe mode it does appear in disk management, where is says 9.8GB, RAW, primary, healthy, 100% free space. Rescue and recovery environment does not start (perhaps as a consequence of this).
        Since reinstalling windows the fingerprint reader does not work, and the "mouse wheel" function of the touchpad is broken (looks like the drivers are missing, but I can live with that for now)
    Additional details
    As I mentioned above I've had this laptop for 4-5 years and it always worked properly without major glitches. Then one day windows suddenly failed to start without reason, although on rare occasions I was able to log in after a very long boot (which suggests to me that it might not be completely broken but just took forever to start up windows), but then it would also fail to shut down (hanged forever at the "windows is shutting down" screen.
    Thinking back, the laptop did on rare occasions fail to start windows, but would always start the next time and never failed to shut down as far as I remember. Lately I also noticed freezing on some occasions, which at that time I thought might be related to the DVD because they seemed to happened only when the DVD was in use.
    After many unsucessful attempts to recover the current system I reinstalled windows 7, and now windows is more or less running, but with the symptoms described above.
    I've run chkdsk /F /R /B, sfc /scannow, and windows memory diagnostic multiple times, as well as several lenovo diagnostic tools (CPU, memory, optical, graphics and perhaps a couple of others); none of them returned any error (1 bad sector added to list by chkdsk last time it ran).
    Questions
        Any suggestions/feedback?
        At this point, is there a chance it could help to reformat the entire drive and reinstall windows?
        In particular, I'm not sure why I need the recovery partition if I (1) it doesn't work and (2) I have an installation CD for the OS anyway.
    Also, would it safe to remove the SERVICEV003 partition?
        I've read somewhere that to restore to factory state you need to mark the recovery partition as "active" - is this true, and could it be the reason that rescue&recovery environment does not start?
        Is it any use updating the BIOS at this point?
        Also, is there any chance that playing around with the BIOS config could result in a working configuration?
        If the problem is a hardware problem, how can I figure out which is the faulty component?
        Is it possible to completely disable, e.g., the DVD drive, without physically unplugging it (BIOS doesn't seem to allow this, and even though uninstalling it in windows seemed to fix the shutdown problem, I know that the DVD is still working because e.g. I can boot from it).
        Is there a way to completely disable one of the graphics card to check whether problem could come from it?
        I've been considering pulling out the HD and memory to check if there is any misconnection/dirty connector. Is is even worth trying (I usually try refrain as much as possible from messing with laptop's inside) ?
    I will update if I remember anything important or if there is any major new development.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    137 attempted reallocations with 6 currently pending. Your drive is probably on its way out.
    Back-up your data immediately. You could try running SpinRite or HDD Regenerator on the drive to try and fix it, but chances are you should just replace it.

  • Shuts down when moved

    I'm having a very bizarre and confusing problem with my Macbook (White, 2 GHz, 1 GB RAM) which started about two days ago.
    Basically, when I move the Macbook, it shuts off. At first (two days ago) it was only happening when it was tilted to its left side. Now, if it is sitting on a desk/my lap and I so much as attempt to lift it *note: i'm not even really lifting it off of the table by more than a milimetre* it will shut off completely.
    The first time it happened and I rebooted, I would get a perpetual beachball over the spotlight icon and the Airport card was apparently no-where to be found. Booting into safe mode and clearing the cache files seemed to fix everything, though. In subsequent movement-induced-shutdowns, this has not happened.
    I don't know if this is related, but when I plugged in the USB cable for my iPod in the USB port next to the Firewire port I saw an orange flash/light in the firewire port.In an attempt to reproduce this orange flash/spark, I discovered that this too, will trigger the Macbook to shut down **however, it will not always cause it to shutdown**. This happens regardless of whether or not the Macbook is running off of battery/plugged in.
    Obviously this is a bit disconcerting, since I can't carry the laptop anywhere while it's 'sleeping'. In fact, I can only use it on stationary objects! So ... arg.
    I'm not sure what to do, or if this is fixable by me, or if this has been mentioned before? Any help ?
    I suppose I should add that i've never dropped it or caused it horrible harm, and up until this point I have had no issues with it. I believe, if I am deciphering the serial# correctly, that this is a week-26 Macbook.
    Thanks for any help,

    Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2.0 Ghz, 1 GB RAM

    My daughter's Macbook has begun to experience intermittent shutdowns for no apparent reason. We purchased the machine new in June. I have been wading through the do-it-yourself "help" literature on the Apple website, but not being a Mac person myself, I feel like I am on a bike mounted backwards. I did find a notice posted Sept. 13 telling users of Macbooks experiencing intermittent shutdowns to contact Apple technical help - that took me on a loop back to the same tech help website page. I notice there is another thread addressing shutdowns, which I will now turn my attention to in search of answers. In the meantime, is there anyone out there reading this reply who can offer advice, help?

  • Pre Turns Off or Shuts Down when I close the keyboard

    Is my pre screwed or is it OS?  
    It shuts off, not the version that other people have had where you have to pop the battery (the power button still works to turn it back on) out to get it to restart.  Anyway, it shuts off when I slide it closed.  I thought maybe something loose so I did it very slowly, not allowing it to even go all the way, the minute that the sensor tripped it back into "no keyboard" mode it turns off.  
    It's especially bad when on bluetooth...happens every single time.  
    Is there a solution for this.  Please palm, a lot of people are having this problem and there is no answer yet? 
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Palm is on deathwatch.  The Pre could have really kept them afloat, but there are too many problems with it.  When I first got my Pre in June, it was awesome!  Everything worked great.  But now, I am always having problems with it.  Here is the list:
    1. Pre turns off or shuts down when I close the keyboard.  (I had to make this one the first on the list since it is the topic.)
    2. Pre turn off or shuts down for no apparent reason and the only solution is to remove the battery, wait a second, put the battery back in, then turn it back on.  This takes forever.  Plus, because I have removed the back so often, my Pre squeaks when I am typing (from the plastic).  It is very annoying.
    3. The navigation system has a glitch where most of the time, it cannot find my current location.  The message says to make sure I am in clear view of the sky, but i always am.  There are many posts about this problem in other sections.  There are some solutions, and the often work, but it takes 5 minutes to reset the system.  It is a beating.
    4. The navigation system voice is usually very clear, but sometimes, the voice will skip over the names of streets as she is calling out the directions.  Ex. "Turn right on ________ Drive."
    5. Sometimes the keyboard will stop working.  I have to remove/replace the battery.  Again, this is time-consuming and further contributes to the squeaking problem when typing because you have removed the back so many times.
    I like Sprint because I can get unlimited data, txt, and mobile-to-mobile calling for $70/mo.  So, I hope that someone comes out with a great touch-screen phone (not the BB Storm), because I want to stick with Sprint.  If you go with an iphone, you have to get AT&T, which will cost you at least $100 for the same.  That is a $360/yr difference!  I am sticking with Sprint.

  • Itunes shuts down when clicking anything

    My iTunes shuts down when I click anything on the screen other than the music. If I click anything on the sidebar (Store, Playlists, Library, etc.) or the album artwork it shuts down. I have tried pulling all the iTunes preferences out of the library and restarting the computer. This does not fix the problem. This has been going on for a few months, but I have been downloading the newest versions of iTunes and it continues to happen.

    Hey chaimoy,
    It seems like you may be experiencing an unexpected quit from iTunes when importing a file into the iTunes library. I have an article for you that addresses this circumstance, and it can be found below:

  • My Satellite laptop (A305) shuts down when run on the AC charger/adapter

    The problem is that my Toshiba _A300 series laptop (A305) shuts down when you try to run it on the AC charger/adapter_. You can boot it with the power cord plugged in and it will get to Windows Desktop and maybe a few minutes more at most before shutting off.
    It will boot and _run from battery without problem_, but if you plug in the AC while it is up and running on battery the machine will normally click off instantly and reboot to the message "Windows was not shut down correctly."
    The _AC adapter works fine_ reading a steady 19.19 to 19.20 volts with a voltmeter. It also _charges the battery fine when the computer is off_. I have two Toshiba brand batteries and they both work fine.
    One interesting thing is that the _computer runs fine on AC when in safe mode_.
    I _did a reformat/factory restore_ of Vista to assure it was not software and drivers, and still got the same problem before any external devices had been plugged in.
    It has the latest BIOS and I tried resetting it to default values in case anything had gotten changed. It made no difference.
    This is _not a heating issue_ because _while it is run on battery I can watch long videos_ without it shutting off. I ran compressed air through the vents just to make sure, but it makes no difference in behavior. Usually with an overheating shut-off, the computer cannot be started until it has cooled some, but these shutdowns are accompanied by an instant reboot.
    I have seen on some threads that this type of problem one can work around by disabling one of the processors in Device Manager, but I don't think that is much of a lasting solution or good for the computer.
    Has anyone seen this problem before and have you come with a full diagnosis of the problem and a real solution?

    I have Satellite A300 and until now everything works OK.
    I would like to know what happen when you remove the battery and use notebook with power supply only. Does notebook shuts down again.
    If not let OS run and put the battery.
    Is the battery recognized properly? Does notebook switch off again?
    To be honest I cannot imagine this issue has something with software or background processes. Recovery image you got with your notebook is designed for this certain notebook mode. Recovery image is tested and I dont think preinstalled OS has anything to do with this.
    Full diagnosis?
    And how to do this? You know very well that diagnosis can be done with diagnostic tools only and such tools have services only. I hope you will find answers but Im 99% sure there is nothing you can do about that. Maybe you should contact service, explain the situation and ask for help.

  • Why does Macbook Pro have gray "curtain"and msg to shut down when playing video online?

    Hi,
    I have a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard v 10.6.8 and have put on all the security updates.
    I bought this machine just days after the newest MBP's were released with Lion because I wanted to stay with Snow Leopard
    From the very beginning I would have occasional "gray screens" with a message that I'd encounterd a problem and needed to shut down.  It always occured while I was watching a streaming video online (Flash?) but it didn't always happen.  I updated my Flash plugin and that seemed to help.  I use both Safari and FireFox and both are now updated to the latest versions.
    I had also noticed via iCleanMemory that my memory availability was very low .....I always have many tabs open in my browsers and have backup software that backs up to online storage running and when I watched a video, it dropped to almost 0 and everything ran slow.  I had 4 GB Ram.
    So, I ordered new ram and put that in and now have 8 GB.  Machine runs fast. Love it....except it keeps giving me that veil of gray and the message to shut down.  It happens several times a day now and while usually in conjunction with watching a video clip, it's not always the case.  But I have lots of available memory.  That wasn't the issue.
    I found an Apple Support paper relative to needing a video update on some mid 2010 MBP's and downloaded it.  It won't install and says it won't run on my system so that didn't help.
    I'm at my wits' end trying to keep this thing running.  Everytime I have to shut it down it means a minimum of 8 min...sometimes more.....before it will restart.  If I try to restart sooner than that, it begins to boot and then just has lines and lines of numbers and code running across it....and often continuous beeping sounds and I have to hold the button down to shut it off again.  If I wait long enough, it does boot back up and sometimes runs fine as long as I'm not watching video clips, a streaming tv show or clicking on a lot of links in web pages.
    I don't believe it has shut down when I was doing anything that wasn't web related....i.e. on a browser. And, when I was running with only 4 gb ram, it rarely shut down, just ran very, very slowly.  Now with 8 gb ram it is speedy but doesn't seem to want to keep working!
    Anyone have any ideas what I should try next?
    Thanks
    Paula

    Hi Allan,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I have been closing iCleanMemory but the shut down (kernel panic) was still happening.  Not sure how to go about uninstalling it as it's one that runs at start-up and dragging it to the trash might not get rid of it completely.  I"ll find it's web site and see if they have any info.
    Haven't checked your web link yet (it's late and gotta get to bed) but will do so tomorrow.
    I also run Backblaze and DropBox that begin at startup and are constantly updating in the background, iStatMenus and Sharpshooter. 
    The kernel panics were happening....tho much less frequently.....before i put iClean Memory on.  If I remember right, I installed it just because I had those periodic shut downs and wondered if it was a lack of memory.  Because I then saw that memory was very low all the time, I decided I must need to put more memory in.  And that seems to have made the issue worse while also making the machine work faster for the time it is running.
    Now, I've been working on here for a couple of hours and had no problem at all......but I haven't asked it to play any kind of video.  Before I quit for the night, I'll try to watch the last one I tried that caused it to shut down and see if it does it again.
    I do appreciate your help as I have just enough knowledge about these things to be dangerous.

  • IMac shuts down when using Safari 2.0.4

    My iMac shuts down when I visit certain websites such as Pogo or video sites. Took it to the Apple store and of course the problem wouldn't replicate there. They kept it to check out the scripts and logs to see if they could find a problem - without success; although they did suggest my house is haunted. Brought it home and it quit again.
    We thought perhaps we were getting interference from other wireless devices and unplugged our cordless phone which worked for a day. The computer always turns back on so its more of an annoyance than a real problem, but I'm baffled.
    It also happened once when I was downloading from the iTunes store, but is most prevalent with Safari.
    We have wireless internet connected via ethernet to an Airport Express.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    Hi Barry -
    Yes I do live near a ghost town (kinda) - Virginia City, NV. And I did tell any unwanted visitors to leave.
    Actually, in the last year, they have replaced the Super drive, power supply, inverter and logic board. The only reason I'm not thinking power issues is that it only happens when I'm in Safari or iTunes. I would use Firefox except I've got java issues with that. I can (and do) use the machine for other things all day long without problems. I can use Safari all day long as long as I'm not playing on Pogo or certain video sites. Maybe Pogo is haunted?
    It also doesn't happen on my husband's iMac on the other side of the house. Is there something that could cause enough interference to actually make the machine shut down? Oh, the antennae for the satellite TV and internet are on the roof directly above me, if that would have anything to do with it.
    Thanks for your help.
