Photoshop Elements 8 Audio Problem!

I have a problem.  I imported videos from my hard disk to Photoshop Elements 8 that are in MPEG format.  I got the video just fine.  I did not get the sound.  Can someone please tell me what might be wrong?

Can you please try and run that mpeg file in say Windows Media player or any other video player?
Initial hunch is that there might be a problem with the audio codecs installed on the machine itself.

  • Premier Elements 8 Audio Problem

    I just got a new Dell laptop last week that came with the Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and Premier Elements 8 bundle pre-installed.   I’ve never worked with Premier Elements before and thought I’d try my luck with it yesterday. I edited several movie clips that were taken with my Sony camera in MP4 format, joined the clips into one movie with transitions between them, and rendered the finished product in .mpg format.
    The video plays fine in all programs, but the audio is a different story.  It is silent in Windows Media Player and Real Player, yet plays well in Windows Media Center and Windows Movie Maker.  It also plays on my Dell PC in Windows Media Player (the same program that silences it on my Dell laptop). 
    I'm a senior citizen and have worked a little bit with Windows Movie Maker but that is all - nothing more intricate than that program.  I’d like to burn my new movie file to DVD but would first like to know what is causing the audio problem.  I'm hoping it's something simple and that this aged brain can understand the "fix".   Any suggestions?
    Thank you for any help you can offer me.

    Hello Hunt, and thank you for helping me.
    Yes, you have described the problem correctly.  In PrElements, all was 
    well with video and audio - and still is OK in two of the  video players I have
    on this new laptop.   However, there  is no audio in the other two programs
    - but only on  this Dell laptop in Windows Media Player.  There IS audio in
    Windows Media Player on my Dell PC.  That's what really confuses me.
    Yes, the original file from the camera was mp4 and was exported as mpg 
    (MPEG).  I don't remember the settings I used; I think the only thing I 
    changed was a quality setting.  Is there a way of going back and looking at  the
    original settings to jot down what they were? 
    I think that the free version of Real Player has improved over the  years
    and has a few more "goodies" now than it did in previous editions.   For one,
    I was able to capture an internet video in its entirety last year, and 
    very easily.  I wanted this video (a show trailer) for a slideshow I  was
    creating and couldn't figure out how to get it with any other  application. 
    That's the main reason I installed Real Player last  week on this new laptop  -
    "just in case" I want to do this  again.
    I will take your advice and look into the two free players...
    And, in response to your second post, WMM has given me a good start but, 
    unless I'm missing something, it does not have the capability of burning a 
    DVD.  I will check out the resources link and the Training  Series that you
    describe, and thank you so much for your help!
    Cordially,
    Anne

    Anne,
    Welcome to the forum.
    Just to make  sure that I am following you, I will restate what I think you
    are  experiencing, and then please correct me. Along the way will be a few 
    questions too.
    You have created a Project in PrElements, and have  Imported Video (with
    Audio) into the PrE Project. The files from your Sony are  in MP4 format.
    In PrE you have your Audio,  correct?
    You have then Exported/Shared that Project to an AV file  as an MPEG. Do
    you recall the settings chosen for that MPEG?
    That  Exported/Shared file plays with Audio in some players, but in others
    it only  plays the Video, but not the Audio. Is that correct?
    Knowing the  settings used to create that MPEG file might explain why some
    player software  does a good job, where other players have an issue.
    This is an  aside comment - I find that WMP, especially the later versions,
    is not a good  choice for a player. It seems that MicroSooft has done as
    much as possible to  strip it of most capabilities. Instead, I recommend two
    free players, 
    http://gofree.com/download/Video/Media-Players/vlcmediaplayer.php?gclid=CLW6soS44KkCFQoBbA odO3L2Xg  and
    http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/. Both are excellent, and will play files,  that some other players struggle
    with. Again, both are free. Because all  players are not created equal, I
    just go with what works. If you were  distributing these files to a client,
    that was locked into WMP, especially the  newer versions, then addressing the
    issue would be worth the detective work.  If that was the case, then I
    would explore Exporting/Sharing to WMV format,  rather than the MPEG.
    I have not used RealPlayer in about a  decade. I found it to be nearly
    useless then, and rather ill-behaved. I will  not let it near my computers,
    though it has possibly been improved over the  years. If you have any RealMedia,
    MediaPlayer Classic HC, can be modified with  a free plug-in, to allow
    that. If you do not have RealMedia files (usually  designated by .RM), then I
    would not worry about taht. Only install what you  need, when you need it. I
    would just ignore RealPlayer, since it is  installed.
    Good luck, and hope that this was helpful. Let us know  a bit more about
    the MPEG settings,  please.

  • Photoshop Elements 4 Animation Problem

    Hey everyone.
    Sorry for posting this in the iMac forum, but there really was no other forum for my problem. I am using Photoshop Elements 4, and whenever I try to save an animated gif, I cannot edit the frame delay or loop options, they will not respond to anything, but EVERYTHING else will. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, and repairing permissions, and everthing else I can think of. Please help!
    Thanks
    Max

    Hmm... Well, this *****. It's wierd, I got it to animate succcessfully once, but only once, then I couldn't again. Just one more reason to wait for and buy 5 Universal when it comes out I suppose. Thanks for your help.

    Hi all!
    I've a problem with Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor.
    I bought Elements 10 Editor from the app store (I've a Mac) some months ago and I chose the english language during the installation.
    Today it happened that, when I opened it, I found it totally in German! How can I restore english language?

    This has been happening a lot to people who upgrade to Yosemite. Here's what adobe suggested a couple of years ago when it was happening to a few people:

  • Photoshop Elements 6 edit problem

    When I try to import a picture from a file on my computer to edit,  my Photoshop Elements 6 says windows has detected a problem...searching for a solution...never does so I am unable to use the full edit. How can I fix this?

    Hi,
    Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
    Solution 1:
    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 4:
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  6\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 Licencing Problem

    Photoshop Elements 8 (s/n 1057-1463-2368-0256-2492-2362) has only ever been installed on 2 machines; one was my current laptop Computer which suffered a HD crash, but no problem, I still had a third licence left unused. In late December the same HD failed completely and was replaced by an SSD, now reloaded with Photoshop Elements 8, but I have no licences left. The 2nd and 3rd licences were used up on the same laptop computer I am still using, but there had been no opportunity to deactivate them before the HD unexpectedly crashed.  What must I do, please?

    You need to contact support directly for activation/deactivation and other installation issues. It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. You will need your serial number.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 installation problems

    Downloaded the bundle and extracted the files to my desktop, however when the installation wizards starts up (setup.exe) it wants to remove the files rather than allow me to go through the installation process (entering serial number, etc.).
    I've tried to remove the files and download the program various times but keep getting this same problem.

    It sounds like Photoshop Elements may already be installed.  Have you tried opening the software from the Start Menu or Screen?  Which version of Windows are you using?

  • Photoshop Elements 2 installation problem

    I want to install Photoshop Elements 2 on my new computer which has Windows 8.1.   I have previously used it successfully on Windows XP and Windows 7 Professional.   I have used the CD to install it but when I try to open the program I get this error message:
    'Could not start Adobe Photoshop because the volume Windows is using for Virtual Memory does not have enough free space, which could lead to stability problems'.
    I have PE6 but have not installed that because I prefer PE2.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi 99jon
    Thanks for your suggestion.   I am sure that you are right about when PSE2 was released it was designed to work on disks no bigger than 1TB and that is the cause of the problem.  I went to the link you suggested and saw the suggestions there.  However, the IT expert, who has been installing Windows 8.1. on my new computer, is against partitioning for this purpose as he says Windows 8.1. is easily ‘upset’ particularly on a Dell computer and says he won’t do it.   Although I’ve had a computer since 2000 I am no expert so I have to reply on his advice although I can see the problem could probably be resolved.   Fortunately I managed myself some time ago  to install PSE2 on my laptop with Windows 7 Professional and if I need to use the program I can use that although the screen is small.  Otherwise I shall rely on Gimp which seems a possible substitute, though I mourn the loss of PSE2.
    I suspect I should have answered this in the forum but I couldn’t see how to do it.  I am grateful for your help

  • Photoshop elements 13 - RAM Probleme

    Ich habe Upgrade von Photoshop elements 11 auf 13 gemacht. Leider kann ich nun nicht mehr als 4 Fotos (RAW à 30MB) öffnen. Fehlermeldung "zu wenig Arbeitsspeicher RAM" vorhanden. Habe versucht mit den Voreinstellungen in Photoshop etwas zu erreichen und am PC (4GB RAM, 32Bit) diverse Änderungen (msconfig, page files, 4GB Grenze aufgemacht und nochmals 4GB RAM installiert, etc.).
    Fragen: Braucht PE 13 tatsächlich so viel RAM oder liegt ein Problem vor?
    Kann ich PE 11 löschen?

  • Photoshop Elements 8 license problem: supposedly using one version on more than one PC

    Hi!
    I've got a problem with my license. Photoshop tells me that I can only use it for 30 days, since my license is already being used by 2 computers. In order to fix that I'm supposed to deactivate at least one version on another computer. Now the problem is, that it's the same computer but once I formatted the harddrive and the other time I had to exchange the harddrive. So as a result I'm still only using one Photoshop Elements, though Adobe thinks I'm already using two and I'm unable to deactivate the other versions, since they do not exist anymore.
    How am I supposed to fix that now? I'd appreciate a solution if anyone can help me.
    Thanks

  • Photoshop Elements 6 Testversion Problem

    Gestern habe ich mit die Testversion von Photoshop Elements 6.0 von der Adobe Homepage heruntergeladen.
    Möchte ich das Programm nun öffnen, erscheint folgende Meldung: "Problem mit Testversion. Beim Laden des Testzeitraums für Adobe Photoshop Elements ist ein Fehler aufgetreten."
    Die Installation erfolgte unter einem neu aufgespielten Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit.
    Das Adobe Produkt wurde vorher noch nie von mir benutzt.
    Weitere installierte Adobe Produkte sind der Flash Player, der Adobe Reader 8.1.1 und Lightrom 1.2 als registrierte Vollversion.
    Während der Installation liefen keine weiteren Programme im Hintergrund. Auch das Installieren auf anderen Partitionen brachte keinen Erfolg.
    Sobald ich Elements deinstalliere, wird auch der Flash Player mitdeinstalliert.
    Ich habe versucht Adobe telefonisch zu kontaktieren, jedoch nach fast 45 Minuten Musik vom Band war ich bedient

    Hallo!
    Hab seit kurzem Windows Vista Home Basic (32-bit) und möchte Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 installieren. Die Installationsdatei von Photoshop startet nicht automatisch, nachdem ich die CD ins Laufwerk geschoben habe. Wenn ich die exe-Datei von Adobe so anklicke, dann beginnt zwar die Installation, aber am Ende kommt folgende Fehlermeldung:
    An error occured during the installation of assembly component, dann folgt ein langer Zahlen-/Buchstaben-Code.
    Habe in diversen Foren gehört, dass man evtl. vorhandene Antiviren-Software vorher beenden muß, um die Installation von Photoshop durchführen zu können. Nur leider kann ich über die Diensteverwaltung AntiVir PE Classic nicht einfach so beenden/starten wie andere Programme. Muß ich AntiVir vorher komplett deinstallieren, dann Photoshop installieren und dann schließlich wieder AntiVir aufspielen?
    Das gleiche Problem hatte ich bei einer anderen Software, die ich unter Vista installieren musste. Habe mich auch vorher als Admin angemeldet. Auch die UAC habe ich vorher ausgeschaltet. Gott sei dank gab es dort eine vernünftige Hotline. Man sagte mir:
    Probieren Sie eine Neu-Installation durch Start der SETUP.EXE aus dem
    Verzeichnis TOOLS\OLDSETUP oder Steuerprogramm\TOOLS\OLDSETUP von
    der Programm-CD.
    Eine vergleichbare Datei konnte ich bei Photoshop nicht finden. Wer kann mir helfen?
    Tausend Dank im Voraus.

    Hi!
    In case that the receiver of my email above doesnt speak German I try to translate my email above. Since a short time I have Windows Vista Home basic 32-bit-Version. I try to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 6, but at the end of installation I receive the following error: An error occured during the installation of assembly component.
    In addition to Vista I have AntiVir PE Classic (anti-spy-software ). I was told to shut down this software before installing Photoshop. Is that correct? Afterwards I should have to install AntiVir PE Classic again and Photoshop should work properly, hopefully. I also have shut down the UAC at Vista.
    Do you have an idea how to solve my problem? In the past I had a similar problem with an other software in connection with Windows Vista. The hotline told me to start SETUP.EXE from a path called TOOLS\OLDSETUP or Steuerprogramm\TOOLS\OLDSETUP on the installation-disc, but I could not found a similar path at the Adobe-installation-disc.
    Manny Thanks
