Premier Elements Trial won't run

I successfully downloaded and installed the Premier Elements Trial version.  It comes up with the Welcome to Adobe Premier Elements purple screen with Organize, New Project and Open Project buttons.  When I select any of these buttons a progress bar comes up for 5-10 seconds then goes away and back to the same screen.  Nothing opens.
This is installed on Windows 7 64 bit.

Welcome to the forum.
When a user is experiencing crashes, or hangs, I always recommend this ARTICLE. It starts with tips on setting up one's computer to run PrE best, then moves into a series of links on tuning up one's computer and OS, and finishes with links on troubleshooting, including an important link to Got a Problem - How to Get Started. That linked article lists the types of info, and how/where to find it, to best help others remotely troubleshoot the problem.o
Good luck, and if you have already done everything in the first two parts of the article, please see the link to ... How to Get Started, and post the information, so that we can study that, and perhaps find the problem.
Good luck,

  • Why won't my Premier Elements 13 video production run when I push the play arrow?  It worked yesterday.

    Premier Elements 13
    I am in the process of making a movie with Premier Elements 13; it has been functioning fine--until today. For some reason, it no longer plays when I press the play arrow button to preview recent additions to the script.  I have rendered the files.  I have exited the program and reopened it.  I have turned the computer off and on.  None of his helps.  Any suggestions?

    ATR,
    Thanks for your reply and comments.
    My Premier Elements program 13 is running on a 64 bit computer with Windows 8.1, with all drivers updated—I think.
    When I press the space bar instead of the play button, still no movement at all.
    When I created a new video with just a couple of pictures, still no luck getting the play button or spacebar to work.
    So far, I have not found the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file, even with your instructions.  When I get to "roaming" there is no file for Adobe in that folder.
    Another clue:  When I began to add narration, the microphone did not work, so I changed some settings relating to audio and recording.  The problem with the play button began, I think, as a result my getting the mike to work.  But since I am not exactly sure what I changed, I can’t go back and reset those settings.
    BTW, when I close PE 13 and open PE 11, everything that I created in 11 works fine.  That is, the play button advances the time line indicator, as it should.  So, the problem seems to not be in my computer settings, but something unique to PE 13.

  • Premier elements 12 will not run after re-install

    Premier elements 12 will not run after re-install - it is legal and registered with adobe under my ID. WTF! The reason I re-installed it was because it could not find the internet - which is working. And premier 12 was working for a while then quit - that is why as a last ditch effort - i re-installed it. Any ideas?

  • Premier Elements Trial Installation goes into oblivion

    Windows 7 64 bit 16 GB memory /  Premier Elements Trial Installation goes off into oblivion
    I started the installer, ready privacy policy (sort of), chose English, clicked Install. Installer disappears from the screen and the harddrive winks madly for about a half hour. Don't see the program in control panel or installed programs. Re-downloaded, same results.
    I've had no installation issues with any other SW including Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS4. What the heck is going on here? - Help appreciated, IM

    Troubleshooting installation issues can be a daunting task. Also, most of us on the forum have not had installation issues, so we can only go by what we have read, that has worked for others - little, to no, direct experiences.
    Usually, a failure to install is specific to certain aspects, and settings on a particular computer - after one follows the very general guidelines.
    If there is a product that is installing and working, that would be a good reason to go with that one, even though it is not from Adobe. Though I have been a big Adobe fan for decades, I still rely on some other programs, that do things that my Adobe suites do not do, or do not do as well. No shame in having a full "toolbox," for when you need something else.
    I understand your frustration, and wish that I had some easy "fixes," but after the guidelines in that linked article, things do get very involved.
    Good luck, and happy editing,

  • Video in Elements 8 / Premier Elements Trial 8

    So I tried the trial version of Premier Elements 8, using existing video from PS Elements 8.   The "Instant Movie" function split all my video into scenes, but I didn't like the resulting movie, and have passed on Premier 8 at this time.  Now all my selected videos are still split up into scenes in Elements 8, and stacked like photos!  How do I put all the "scenes" back together into one video clip??  Thanks for the help!

    To build on Barb's suggestions:
    - Be sure to never set the Auto-Analyzer to run automatically (Edit > Preferences > Auto-Analyzer Options > Analyze All Media In Catalog Automatically).  It will split your video into scene groups, even if you don't have Premier installed.
    - Before deleting and reimporting the video, write down its date/time, because PSE or another program may have changed the video file's date-modified, and PSE will use that date when it reimports the file.   You can change the catalog's date of the video using Edit > Adjust Date And Time.

  • Premier elements 9 won let me do anything at all.

    I have reinstalled Premier  element 9 after my computer crashed and it loads the splash screen but if I click new project etc. the main window appears but it is a gray box with nothing in it. All the menus are greyed out apart from a couple of options in the help menus and the new or open project. If I click either of these nothing happens. Am I doing something really stupid? I am beginning to get very frustrated.
    Any help would be appreciated. The screen shot shows what I get and what is shown for the menus.

    Try to reset all Skype settings. Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old. Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder. Restart Skype. N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

  • Where can I find a version of Premier Elements 11 that will run on 64 bit Windows 8?

    Hi

    I just installed Photoshop and Premier Elements 10 on my MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8. Photoshop works fine.

  • Newly installed Premiere Element 13 won't run.

    I just installed Premiere Element13. The program launches but when I select either "New" or "Existing" project, a pop-up will show with the message"Adobe Premiere Element.exe - No Disk" "Please insert disk in drive D". The pop-up cannot be dismissed and the program is stuck there and won't even close. I have to go to Task Manager to end it!  I am running Windows 8.1, i5 4670K CPU, 8G RAM, 1T HD with DVD burner. Any suggestion?

    Heliossss
    I just installed the purchased version of Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 and 8.1 64 bit.  Interesting....
    1. Beyond the usual, there seems to be a problem with this version's Interpret Footage and Properties readings for the .mod widescreen 16:9 file
    Premiere Elements 13 Major .MOD Widescreen Concerns
    2. With the Sept 2014 tryout there was a video transition named Funnel which is not there now in December 2014 in the
    purchased version.
    3. In the Sept. 2014 tryout, there were 2 new Movie Menu themes in the Kid's Corner category (Recital and Back to School). They
    are not there in my December 2014 purchased Premiere Elements 13.
    4. There are some reports about some .m2ts files having no sound only in the Elements Organizer 13 player. More news on that.
    This just might be a problem with AC-3 (Dolby Digital) support in this particular user file in the Elements Organizer 13 player. If you run into this type of issue, please let us know.
    But, right now all is moving along nicely. Hope all is going well there.

  • Premiere elements 12 won't run

    Hello.
    I have an issue with my Adobe Premiere Elements 12.
    Purchased bundle Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements year ago and installed with no problems.
    Did not use Elements till now and when run it, it requested log in to Adobe account which I did, asked for my incense which I added but after that it started from the very beginning asking for logging in etc.
    So I un-installed it and re-installed. No issues whatsoever. Then asked to provide license detail, everything ok. When pressed Accept T&C the Premiere shuts down.
    When restarted the same thing happens - it asks for license then shuts down. I can't make it run.

  • Premier Elements 11 Won't Open!

    Hi! I am running a HP Personal Computer with Windows 7. I have been using Elements 11 for months without problem and have been very pleased with the product.
    I went to open it today and was unable to. It would not load past the "Welcome Screen," which seemed to be working fine. If I try to open a file, or a new project, it will load indefinately. If I go to the files directly and bypass the Welcome Screen, it will open the loading screen, but will not get passed "Initializing applications." After a couple minutes, I will get an error message saying the program has shut down. I have tried to uninstall it, but the uninstall process would not move forward and then it shut down. I re-entered my seriel number, and that whole process worked fine. I've tried opening many files with no positive results.
    I used the program a few days ago without problem. I remember something similar happening to Elements 8 when I was using it, but I forgot how I fixed it.
    Help?

    HiddenWhiteFang,
    If Steve's FAQ does not fix things for you, my next step would be to check the video driver.
    What is the make and model of your video card/chip?
    What is the date and number of the installed video driver?
    Is that the latest version from the nVidia, or AMD/ATI Web site?
    If not, then I would download and install the latest, for your model of card/chip and your OS version, and test.
    PrE needs to interface directly with the video driver. All sorts of things can render the video driver obsolete, such as a simple OS update - things work one day, along comes the OS update, and suddenly things do not work at all. Simple programs, like Word, etc., do NOT have to interface with the video driver, much at all, so they continue to work well.
    I would try the suggestions in that FAQ on licensing first, and if it works, wonderful. If not, check that video driver.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
