Premiere elements 10 trial - buttons not clickable

hello,
i am evaluating premiere elements 10 and i have an apparently weird problem with buttons and tabs. here's an example of what happens:
when i run pe10, it starts in sceneline mode. the timeline tab has a dark background and if i click it nothing happens, just as if it was disabled.
i discovered that if i click and drag a little just over it, its background becomes gray. i release the button, and from now on the tab perfectly responds to clicks and i can switch to timeline mode.
the sceneline tab remains active, so i can switch to sceneline mode and then back to timeline mode.
the same happens for example, with the motion control buttons in the monitor (play, forward...) and the project/edit/disc menus/share tabs.
what drives me mad is that when i "enable" a button or tab the way i described, after a while it gets "disabled" again, and i have to repeat the "click+drag and click again" sequence.
this is my hw/sw configuration:
intel i5 imac - 27" - ram 16gb - hd 1tb (400gb free)
snow leopard - up to date
apple trackpad with "magicPrefs" driver
the magic mouse is configured on the system, but it is off (i don't use it anymore since i bought the trackpad)
any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

hello everybody,
it looks lke i've spoken too early.
after working correctly for about one month, suddenly the buttons and tabs in my registered premiere elements 10.0 started showing that problem again.
most of them are disbled at first, and i have to click and drag the mouse over them to enable.
sometimes they are regularly clickable from that point on, sometimes they get disabled again after clicking, and i have to re-enable them (again, by dragging the mouse over them).
i can do everything i need, but this way of working is really annoying and time-wasting.
i have re-downloaded and re-installed the program.
it is regularly registered.
everything works as expected, with the exception i described above.
using a trackpad or a mouse doesn't make any difference, the behaviour of the buttons is the same.
i have no similar problems with any other application i run.
i run an i5 mac with an up-to-date snow leopard.
any hint will be greatly appreciated.
thank you
stefano barni

Premiere Elements 13 issue with the mouse on MAC OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
When I select a clip of video and move to a different place in my time line, Premiere Elements 13, will not release the clip from the mouse.
The clip follows my mouse movements and goes to other places in my time line.
I try to delete these extra insertions, but the mouse will not release the clip.
Action I’ve taken: I’ve re-installed Premiere Elements 13. Problem remains.
This issue has consumed too much of my time and does not go away. It ruins my video.
Help please.

I tried using the Guest Account on my Mac. In the Guest Account, Illustrator works perfect!
Then I started wondering what processes (tools/tweaks) I run by default on my account. Turned out the problem was called by a little background tool called RightZoom. RightZoom let's the green 'zoom' button always maximize your current window.

Adobe premiere elements trial version

in my adobe premiere elements the text 'premiere elements trial version' stays in the videodisplay, how can I remove this?

marrithoekstra
Just in case notes that may sometimes get overlooked.....
1. After purchase of the Premiere Elements, you can remove the Adobe watermark from a project file (project.prel) that you created during the tryout. But, you cannot remove the Adobe watermark that exists in one of the exports from the tryout project.prel file (even after you get a purchased serial number and are working from the purchased program).
a. The classical answer to getting rid of the Adobe watermark from your tryout project.prel files after you purchase the product is to delete the rendered files of the trial project.prel which is opened in the purchased program.
b. However, I and others have found the often just opening the trial project.prel into the purchased program removes the Adobe watermark automatically with no need to delete any rendered files.
See what works for you. Please let us know the outcome.
Thank you.

Can you tell us all about your computer, and especially your computer's graphics card/chip? What is its make/model? What is the version and date of the installed video driver? When PSE runs, but PrE does not, it is usually an issue with the video driver being obsolete. Good luck, Hunt

Adobe premiere Elements 12 will not open editor

I had Adobe Premiere Elements 11 on my laptop and worked fine. Decided to upgrade to Elements 12 and did but version 12 will not open editor, says sign in, I sign in but no editor. Organizer opens and loaded my Photos and videos. I purchased full retail version for download. My laptop runs windows 8.1 and has an Intel Core i5 dual core processor and 4GB ram.

Have you gone to Computer/Manager/Event Viewer/Windows Logs/Applications and looked for error entries that appear to be associated with this problem?
Did you purchase Photoshop Elements 12 as well as Premiere Elements 12, and does Photoshop Elements 12 Full Editor open whereas Premiere Elements 12 will not open to its Expert or Quick workspaces?
You have probably tried it, but can you open to the Premiere Elements workspaces from the Elements Organizer workspace?
More later.

On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running? Have you updated 13 to 13.1 yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates?
If not, please do so.
You have not given us enough information with which to help you.
What are the properties of your source file that is presenting in the project with audio but no video?
Quickest way to gain that information is from brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video.
I am looking for
video compression
audio compression
frame size
frame rate
interlaced or progressive
file extension
pixel aspect ratio
What does the file's thumbnail look like in Project Assets after it is imported....thumbnail with no image (gray), thumbnail with only an audio icon
within it, or other? On the Timeline, what do you see represented in Video 1....nothing as opposed to Audio 1 where you see the audio portion of
the file?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer along with Premiere Elements 13/13.1? Are you running the programs as
administrator?
Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
Let us start here. Based on your reply details, we will customize troubleshooting strategy for you.

Premiere elements 11- PitchShifter not working?

Pitch shifter in Premiere elements 11 is not working as good as it was in Premiere elements 7. Here's some of my issues:
When I change the pitch, the end of the audio is cut off/out of sync
When a clip is short, the audio won't play if it has the pitch shifter effect
When I split a clip with pitch shifter applied, the audio skips
I would like it if the pitchshifter would be more like the one that was in premiere elements 7.

Adobe Premiere Elements 12 Is Not Opening (Need Help ASAP)

Hello,
I tried to start up the program and it won't start. Previously, I would have the problem of my software not starting when I clicked on the icon. I found a way to get around that, but now it isn't starting at all. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program and nothing has changed. All I get now is a pop-up box that says that the program has stopped working. I really don't know what to do!

You realize that you are not using Premiere Elements 12/12.1 optimally on Windows Vista be it 32 or 64 bit. You still have a Premiere Elements 12/12.1 32 bit application which has computer resource issues when trying to get a larger project taken to completion successfully. With the 32 bit system, the maximum supported installed RAM = 4 GB, typically with 3.2 to 3.0 GB or less of that available. And, you appear to have only 3 GB RAM to start with.
It sounds like it may have worked before from what you wrote. How long ago did it work? And, what was your last activity in a project before you could no longer get the program to open. Are working with a home computer or is this computer part of a company network? In your present computer environment moving to Premiere Elements 13 is not a choice since Premiere Elements 13 does not support Windows Vista 32 or 64 bit.
You could go through the usual drill
a. Latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 12/12.1?
b. Running program from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
c. Video card/graphics card up to date according to web site of the manufacturer of the card?
d. Does problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
e. Where do you have the Scratch Disks directed and how much free hard drive space is at that location?
f. Did you install the program to the default location on the Local Disk C?
What was your way of getting the program to work previously when problems developed?
Let us consider the above and then we can decide what next.
Thank you.

My serial number for adobe photoshop elements 12 and premiere elements 12 does not work

My serial number for adobe photoshop elements 12 and premiere elements 12 does not work. On adobe.com it shows that the serial number I received is associated with adobe photoshop elements 9 and premiere elements 9. I have purchased those products in the past, but just recently upgraded to elements 12. I can use the the photoshop organizer, but can't open the photoshop editor.

You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.

Premiere Elements 12 will not allow me to add any more 'Default Text'

Premiere Elements 12 will not allow me to add any more 'Default Text'. Being using it fine up until today! Created over 80 words so far for subtitles but for some reason it wont allow me today!!!

Dave
Thanks for the follow up. Interesting result.
What is the specific Music Score that you used in the Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Mac Soundtrack that was limiting you in the number of words that could be included as text in the project's opened Titler?
Please confirm
a. Working in Expert workspace or Quick workspace?
and
b. Was the 12.1 Update in effect before and after you observed that the Music Score soundtrack removal resolved the issue of number of words limit in the Titler?
and
c. Did the Titler problem exist if you replace the Music Score soundtrack with a non Music Score music file?
and
d. If you moved the Music Score soundtrack to one of the numbered Audio Tracks, did the Titler problem exist?
If you have no Music Score soundtrack in the project, create your title of 80 plus words in the Titler, close the Titler, and then bring the Music
Score soundtrack to the project's Soundtrack, does that strategy work for you?
The above information will help me to think about what happened in your case and give me more insight into how to prevent it happening to
you in future projects.
Thanks.

PrE 12. How to deal with black screen "Created with Adobe Premiere Elements trial version"?

I'm really considering purchasing PrE 12 and would like to try it out. (I have another video editing software and would like to try this one.)
When I add video, I get a black screen "Created with Adobe Premiere Elements trial version". When I hit play, I can hear audio, but I don't get any video (just the black screen). Is there a work around, a setting that I can change, or is the trial version supposed to show the black screen?

Adobe premiere elements 12 will not open keeps crashing

I am on a mac using osX 10.8.5 and my program will not open. It just keeps crashing. i have tried shutting down my computer several times but it will not work. The Organizer seems to to work but not the Video editor and it shuts down when i click "new project" any ideas anyone?
i'm on version 12

Hi Jacquima,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
It seems like Premiere Elements 12 is not activated properly.
Please open the finder window and click on go and choose computer.
Navigate to the below path then
MacHD>Library>Application support>Adobe
Rename the files SLstore and Slcache to Slstore.old and Slcache.old respectively.
Launch Premiere elements 12 again it will prompt you to enter your Adobe id and password and then the serial number.
By following the above steps you will have to reactivate your Adobe products. Make sure you have no other Adobe product.
If you have any other adobe product installed make sure you have the serial number for that.
Thanks

Premiere Elements 12 will not run after install

Long time Premire and Premiere Elements user. Had been using PE 9 earlier this week. Yesterday purchased PE 12. Before even downloading, to avoid any potential conflicts, I uninstalled PE 9, then installed PE12. After reboot, I attempted to launch the application. it fails.

Thanks for letting us know of the outcome of your contact with Adobe.
I do not work for Adobe nor am I affliated with it in any way. Just a user in a user to user forum.
In my troubleshooting of various Premiere Elements has have not yet run into a connection between the dvamarshal.dll and the computer's video card/graphics card. But, video card/graphics card compatibility issues can cause the type of problems that you see in the program.
What video card/graphics card does your computer use? Under Device Manager/Display Adapters/, do you see only one card listed or two? Assuming that the card(s) are up to date, then please try the following. We are going to delete the BadDrivers.txt file for Premiere Elements 12. In Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit, it can be found
Local Disk C
Program Data
Adobe
Premiere Elements
and in the Premiere Elements Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete. In this Premiere Elements Folder are folders besides this BadDrivers.txt file. You do not want anything in the folders in the Premiere Elements Folder, only the file named BadDrivers.txt file. (When you open a new project, the program will generate a new BadDrivers.txt file and hopefully all will be resolved.) Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path cited.
The rationale behind the above approach is explained in the following older thread (post 10). BadDrivers.txt deletion has proven to be a life saver for those with display issues in 9 as well as later versions.

About reverting to Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1....
We can get tryout files for 9 from the following web site, and you can insert your purchased serial number in them....
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-direct-download-links.h tml
You have to read the instructions very carefully so that you do not get hit with an Access Denied message.
But, we need to get your purchased serial number. If you registered Premiere Elements 9 with Adobe, you should be able to see it at http://www.adobe.com under "My Products".
Please review and consider the above and then we can decide what troubleshooting strategy needs to be developed.
Thanks.
