Premier elements 7.0 installs but won't run, please assist

I have tried many times to install Premier Elements 7.0 on my computer. I have a very large hard drive and large ram capacity. It is able to run Premier elements 4.0 very well, with no problems. To try to resolve the problem, I uninstalled all Adobe Premier Elements components, cleaned the registry, removed almost all programs from the hard drive in order to make sure there was ample room. I checked and my resources say I have plenty of capibility to run the program. I checked for viruses.
I am able to install 7.0 and load the program. I am almost able to open a project (I have tried several projects of various sizes) and every time, just as it is completed loading the project, there is an error message and the program shuts down.
The error says there is a problem with module: ad2mpgvdec.dll and then it tries to send a report to windows online. I ran the program compatibility program with no luck. I am out of ideas. I can't understand how the older versions of Elements run just fine but 7.0 will not.
Any thoughts? I would love to use this program for editing a Christmas video for my daughter.
One other thing, the compatibility wizard says that settings for Premier Elements 7.0 are: DisableNXShowUI Not sure what that means and have been unable to google it. Other than that, it gives me no hint as to how to fix the problem.

Are you saying that the program crashes as soon as you try to start a project -- not when you try to import video into it? This is a very important distinction.
You also say you tried to run the program in compatibility mode? Does this mean you're running it on a less-than-preferred operating system?
Meantime, a Google search on that driver turns up some pretty strange things. Lots of references to Torrent downloads and spyware. Have you run a program like Spybot Search & Destroy lately? It might be a good idea.
Otherwise, if all else fails, this might be worth a call to Adobe Tech Support. There's obviously some sort of conflict going on somewhere, and they'll be able to walk you through the necessary troubleshooting.

  • CS3 installs but won't run

    Ok - not sure if this goes in this section or not.. but it's a technical question.
    My b/f bought me a Dell Laptop last week. It has the recommended minimum of everything adobe says it needs for photoshop CS3 (see below for 1721 specs)
    When I installed it on the laptop - it was slow, but said it installed. But when I go to open up Photoshop, it opens the screen - and then just hangs. After about 5 minutes it says not responding and I close it. Any of the other programs that came with won't even get that far. I click on them and it gives the little "thinking" circle (as I call it.. lol) and then nothing.
    I have read that CS3 has issues with Vista - but their site says the home premium should work. I've also read about 64 bit issues.. but the OS is 32 bit - so it's capable of running 32bit systems... I guess.
    I called adobe yesterday after installing and reinstalling CS3 15+ times... with the same issue. I was on the phone for about 2 hours with them. Basically - they have NO CLUE what it would be since it installs fine and opens with no error messages. I checked the log files and there is nothing in there I see that says any kind of error.
    I have disable windows defender, uninstalled McAfee and google desktop (all are known to cause issues with CS3), I have ALL non MS startup services turned off.. I have turned off the MS users control.. all suggested by the adobe tech.
    I have installed using the run as administrator. Nothing. Created a new admin account and installed on that user and opened on reg admin account. Nothing. (again typical things that correct cs3 install issues)
    The last thing the guy said was that it might be a video issue. I checked and there aren't any issues mentioned and no driver updates listed.
    We tryed installing this on my b/f's laptop. He bought the exact one I have (except his is red.. mine blue.. lol) and it does the EXACT same thing...
    So today we called dell. they say it's a software issue and won't answer any questions for free. Apparently only hardware support is free... But they won't accept this is a hardware conflict with the software..
    errrrr
    Anybody have any clues on this?

    Rob - thanks for taking a stab at this.
    I have tried installing from the DVD and also from the zip file. the zip file was extracted to the hard drive brfore I ran it - and I ran it as administrator.
    And when it stalls - it gives the (NOT RESPONDING) tag on the window - which usually means that even if I leave it (and I have for up to 20 minutes) - still nothing.
    Here's the update from my dealings with DEll today...
    Dell tech support guy told me that it was a know issue that CS3 WON'T run on Vista and that Adobe is working the issue
    Told them that I knew others that were running it on Vista and it worked fine. They had no answer.
    Then I waited for the Technical support manger to call. This is after expressing my displeasure to the technical supervisor about them trying to pawn this issue off on anyone else but themselves. Why can't they go grab a 1721 off the shelf and replicate the issue and try to figure it out from there?!?!?!
    I used to work on a network helpdesk.. if I tried to pull that crap answer without trying to replicate the issue and AT LEAST try to find an answer.. I wouldn't have lasted very long at all!!!!
    The Tech manager told me to call customer support and ask for an OS swap (from vista to XP) because they don't know what the problem is and so it muct be a Vista compatibility issue
    I call customer support. They say that they no longer will give out XP since it is a step backwards. And to install XP on the machine ourselves (even a liscensed copy) would void the warranty. They suggest I talk to sales about swapping the laptop out with a "more compatible" one. Which isn't a totally bad idea since I really do think it is an AMD/ATI conflict.
    They transfer me to Sales.. ohh - you used the Employee Purchase program.. you need to talk to them.. and they transfer me.
    The EPP people tell me.. ohhhh you didn't actually go through us since you bought it off the Dell Outlet store. So they transfer me.
    The dell outlet store says they will be more than happy to swap me out to an Intel based machine.
    Only catch is the Intels are more expensive. They don't have any for the price we paid for the amd's. Fot about $40 more I can get one with a slower processer, a gig less ram, no dvd writer, but with a 160gb hd. To get compatible to mine - would be about $150 more.
    And they only have silver in the low end, and black or brown in the higher. Not that I really give a s@!t what the color is.. but it brings up the main reason I am sooo pissed abput all of this....
    Why should I have to pay more money, settle on doing without option/features want/need.. just because THEY don't want to take the time to figure out what the real issue is?!?!?! Why isn't it them doing these calls and doing all this troubleshooting.. Why am I being peanilzed for THEM not wanting to do their jobs....
    Told the B/F that I am done with Dell. That I don't want the laptop anymore and I don't want any other one from them. He says he'll pay the extra and get me the other one.. but that isn't the point....
    Not sure what my next move is.

  • Itunes 10 Installs but won't open - Please Help

    I had Itunes 10 installed working on my computer. I installed a program which also installed an older version of Quicktime which I think was version 6.5. The next time I tried to open Itunes it said I needed verion 7.5 of Quicktime to open Itunes please reinstall Itunes. Now comes the problem. I have installed and uninstalled Itunes about 10 times, everytime it install ok but does not open when I click on the icon. The itunes.exe file opens in task manager for a few seconds then closes. I have searched a few places for solutions with no avail. I have tried the correct order of removing apple programs and deleting temp folder and internet cache. I have tries msconfig but can't find any of the programs which have affected other users. I have tried creati9ng another user account for windows but Itunes still won't open. Can anyone please help. My computer is Windows 7 32 bit. Thank in advance.

    No, the program I installed was Winavi MP4 which coverts video to ipod psp format etc.
    Ack, that one's just as bad. It's been causing this sort of grief for iTunes users for over five years now.
    What it has probably done here is drop old versions of QuickTime componentry in unorthodox locations on the PC (usually down in your operating system files). So we're going to go looking for that.
    First we'll adjust some view settings on the PC.
    1. From the Start menu, click Open.
    2. In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
    3. Click the View tab.
    4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
    5. Click OK.
    Now, in Computer, open your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "System32" folder.
    What files or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file or folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Photoshop CS3 installs but won't run on new OS install

    Hello,
    I've been searching through the forums and have seen some users with a similar problem, but haven't found any info that's relevant to my situation.
    I have done a fresh install of Windows XP Pro SP2 and decided to install a brand-new copy of CS3 at the same time.
    This computer is totally fresh - there are no printers, no TWAIN drivers, no funny fonts or games installed. The only software on this machine is Windows and whatever updates Windows Update has pushed out.
    The Photoshop installer runs fine - no crashes or error messages. However, when I try to start up Photoshop, I just get the outer frame of the app window and (usually) the File / Edit / Image / Layer... menu bar. There is no splash screen, and no palettes appear. If I click anywhere in the app window, the menu bar disappears and the title bar says "Not responding".
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling from both the DVD and the web download. I've tried selecting the "repair" option on the install screen. I've tried downloading and installing the 10.0.1 update.
    I tried installing Lightroom and Reader to see if those work (they do).
    I tried installing the latest video driver for my gfx card.
    None of these change the behaviour I've been seeing at all. I opened a support case with Adobe about 4 days ago but haven't gotten a response yet.
    Any thoughts? I was able to run PS CS1 on this computer just fine before I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled everything, so I don't think it's a hardware issue.
    Thanks,
    Thomas Park

    Hi Guys,
    Ive got the same problems as you, Win XP SP2 on RAID 1 hard disk set on an AMD raid controller, but I have no driver to roll-back to.
    Ive installed Photoshop CS3 and also Acrobat Standard 8 (which used to run fine on an old system), but all i get now is the blank window with the menu and title bar and thats all.
    Can some one help?  (will this licensing patch resolve the issue - and where can i get it from?)
    Thanks

  • Photoshop CS4 installs but won't run with Vista OS

    All,
    I have installed CS4 on Vista 64 and completed without any errors. I was able to bring up Bridge and go through it without any issues. However, when I try to run either CS4 or CS4 64 bit, it starts to load and says it has quit working, windows tries to find a fix and does not and shuts the program down. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
    http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1
    The location is different for Vista :
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4
    Note to moderator: needs updating!
    You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
    This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.

    Assuming you are not manually managing your music, verify the following:
    You are using the latest version of iTunes
    On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings you have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos"
    In your music library you have checked all the songs you want to sync to your phone
    There are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
    You have authorized your computer for all Apple IDs for purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize this computer)
    You have checked "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings
    When everything looks correct, sync your phone.

    Have there been any reports of a faulty installer with Premier in the Boxed set? Photoshop installed so seamlessly it's odd that this is popping up.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Eitehr your Windows installer is damaged or you run without sufficient user privileges. Run Windows Update to repair the installer and make sure to run as admin. also turn off any security stuff temporarily.

  • ADOBE PREMIER ELEMENTS 7 Starts OK but Crashes during Editing

    This program lets me open and import up to 30 small Video clips ,while editing  it's about this stage that it displays the following warning box :-  ADOBE PREMIER ELEMENTS IS RUNNING LOW ON SYSTEM MEMORY. PLEASE SAVE YOUR PROJECT & PROCEED WITH CAUTIION........OK (button).
    My computer is a HP ELITE PAVILION with 4 gb. of system memory , I have taken it for granted that this should be adequate for this type of program.... is this correct or there something else wrong ??
    The program case has a note that it is for Win.XP or Vista & I am using Win.7 is it posible that it might nead a patch to make it better ??
    I would appreciate if someone could ASAP be of a help to me....All the best....Bill Ellis

    Hi Bill
    Open the program and click Edit >>Preferences >>Scratch Disks
    This should show the amount of spare memory for performing tasks.
    If low you could add more disk space e.g. an external hard drive rather than main memory.
    In general the software pre-dates Windows 7 but if it will run on Vista it should perform satisfactorily on W7.
    If you need any more advice I would recommend going directly to the video forum.

  • Rosetta Stone TOTALe (Spanish) 4.5.5 Fatal Application Error 1141 Installs But Won't Launch After MacBook Restarts

    I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9.4 (Maverick) and am trying to add Rosetta Stone Latin Am Spanish to this laptop, after having successfully installed it several years ago on a older MBP.
    I was given the latest download file TOTALe 4.5.5 by Rosetta Stone Support for this purpose.  It will install fine and work, immediately upon installation, but when I shut down and restart, I can no longer launch the program and get the Fatal Application Error 1141 code instead.
    I have been through this issue many, many times with Rosetta Stone Support already and have followed, alone and with them, the troubleshooting link set up for this problem without success. (Here is the link:  https://rosettastone.secure.force.com/en/language-learning/articles/Error-1141-a ppears-when-I-start-the-Rosetta-Stone-TOTALe-application#macdiv)  Rosetta Stone has run out of ideas to resolve this issue. (I have saved about 10 chat session transcripts where the support people have me run through the same steps over and over, despite my informing them of the previous lack of success in following these steps.)
    My OS X is up to date. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem running Maverick.
    Any thoughts would be greatly  appreciated.
    P.S. This is a relatively new MBP and the only add-on software other than Rosetta Stone is Microsoft Office.

    I have the same problem.  Back in 2011 I bought Rosetta and got the very same problem, talked and talked to their support to no avail.  On that instance they returned my purchase money.  This time around I asked beforehand if the software was totally compatible with Yosemite and they said yes.  I just got it, tried to unit and got error 1141 again.  It is very frustrating! I will talk to them again but my hopes are very low.  I guess one needs to understand that the software is crap!

  • ITunes 7 is installed but won't run

    I recently installed iTunes onto my computer and it opened, but I wasn't able to connect to the music store. A friend suggested uninstalling, performing a system restore to an earlier date and try again. Well now iTunes installs, but it won't run. HELP!

    Hi Everyone.
    This is a real disapointment from apple to us!
    At this moment all we know that this is a BIGGER BUG ISSUE on the V7 upgrade.
    I can't figure out how the apple guys give us an update that ***** in the main pourpouse of it ...LISTEN MUSIC!!!
    I recommend that you uninstall the itunes as the quicktime, then reinstall to the V6.5 version and I hope that you have an iTunes Library.itl file backup because as a very GOOD ENDING the V7 give a new structure to this important file and will not be read again for previous itunes versions.
    You can find the iTunes Library.itl at \My Documents\My Music\iTunes if you have a previous version to replace it.
    By now, I hope that apple give us another new V.7 version fixing this bug among others and the testers can do their job as they receive their checks.
    This is a very "punchself" for Jobs and Apple team then their last days announcements.
    Good luck to all!!
