Premiere Elements 11 no longer recognizes Canon HV30

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated to my problem.  I have been using PE 11 to download HD camcorder footage from my Canon HV30 camcorder to hard drive.  I've gone through about 15 tapes and all was going well.  Two days ago I went to download the next tape and PE no longer recognizes the Canon.
My setup:  Windows 7.  Canon HV30 connected to PC using Firewire cable.  Drivers updated, etc.  The cable appears fine (if I force PE to switch to "standard definition camcorder" the Canon appears as "Microsoft Camcorder" and PE will control the camcorder).  I have tried plugging/unplugging cable at various times; starting PE with and without camera plugged in; uninstalled and reinstalled drivers for the firewire card.  I am now at my wit's end.
The only change between when I last downloaded footage on Sunday and Wednesday was a MS Windows update and Quicktime update.  So I have uninstalled Quicktime.  Went through the same tests: start with/without Canon turned on; reboot, etc.  Nothing works and I'm at a loss.  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

First thing, quickly reinstall the latest verison of  QuickTime or use the version that was just updated. QuickTime is a requirement.
If you want the 7.7.4 prior version, please try the following link. But, for now I would go with the latest version of QuickTime 7.7.5.

Download and install HDVSplit and do a capture firewire with it. That will give you split clips MPEG2.m2t to put on your Timeline.
Here we are using it as a troubleshooting tool. If it works, it may become your permanent tool.
Did you remove the Windows Update?
In Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks, where do you have the Captured Video and Captured Audio fills directed? How much free hard drive space is at that location?
Please review and let us know if any of the above had any impact on your situation.
Thanks.

  • Premiere Elements 11 no longer recognizes my external blu-ray burner.

    I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today, but for some reason Premiere Elements 11 is not recognizing it. Windows 7 sees it just fine. Premiere Elements 8 (which is still loaded on the same computer) also does not recognize it.
    What do I need to do? Samsung's website is no help, but I have a feeling it's an Adobe issue since Windows 7 still recognizes the drive.

    When is your Blu-ray burner not recognized
    Premiere Elements 11: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, burn to AVCHD on DVD disc, or all?
    Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, or both?
    and when you wrote:
    I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today
    Did "....many times before today" imply that you could use the burner for Premiere Elements 11 and 8.0/8.0.1 before. I am trying to get a whether this is a "it worked before but now" or a "it never worked before" type issue.
    Do you have the USB 2.0 cable connected to a USB 2.0 computer port directly or via a USB multi port hub? I take it that this burner does not have AC support? If you are using only 1 USB 2.0 port, can you set up the burner for 2 USB 2.0 ports?
    Does the computer involved have an internal burner? Or is this the only burner that you have available to you external or internal for the computer?
    Let us start here and then decide what avenues of further troubleshooting are available to us.
    Thanks.

  • Premiere Element 12 does not recognize AVI movies.

    Premiere Element 12 does not recognize AVI movies created with Casio Exilim EX-FH100 camera.
    The operating system (Win 7 and Windows Media Player) recognizes these files without problems.
    While trying to load an AVI movie in Premiere appears this inscription: This file type is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.
    How can I fix the problem?
    Thank you.

    Thanks to your advice I solved the problem.
    I installed the codec Morgan M-JPG from an existing link (http://morgan-multimedia-mjpeg-codec.en.lo4d.com/download) different from what I have proposed, this link was continually blocked by my anti-virus.
    After restarting Prenmiere Elements 12 (without reboot) AVI movies of my Casio have been read.
    The operating system of my PC is Windows 7.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere elements 10 doesn't recognize avchd from my canon camcorder

    I have a canon HG20 with Hard Disk but premiere doesnt recognize it and so I cant import video to the organizer or directly to Get Media. Only the flash memory SD of the camera recognize the photos. Im new with premiere elements and Im not sure what it is correct to do. I hope from some help
    Thanks

    Have you ensured that you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program requirements?
    When you started your Premiere Elements project, did you ensure that you selected settings that precisely match your video and audio specs? For instance, if this camcorder shoots in 1920x1080 with 5.1 audio, did you ensure that your project was set up for Full AVCHD 1920x1080 5.1?

  • Premiere Elements 8 getting media from canon hf200

    Let me start off with I have been using premiere 4 for the last year or so using a sony vx2000 camcorder and have had no problems. My computer is a dell xps 420 useing vista, 4026 ram, 32 bit O/S, ATI radeon HD 2600 XT video card. I have upgraded to a canon hf 200 with sdhc memory and have downloaded the trial verison on premiere 8. I was told that this verison will support the sdhc format that my canon hf200 prouduces. I have tryed every different setting on the camera and in premiere and the video that I import off this new camera will not play wright. It is very jerky and the sound goes off and on. I can play this camera media type on sony vegas movie maker 9 and it looks great. The only problem is I have been using the adobe for so long I dont want  to learn how to use the sony vegas. I have called adobe customer service " WHAT A JOKE", 3 times and could not get anyone to pick up the phone, I was on the line 30 min. each time. I finally got through and I swear, I could not understand a dam thing that indian was saying. And  I dont mean American indian. Can anyone help before I go crazy over this.

    Computer optimization including frequent defragmentation is always essential to video editing no matter what the video format. And, available RAM, free hard drive space, virtual memory setup are some major considerations for successful video editing of clips whose duration is beyond a few minutes, generally speaking.
    For AVCHD editing in Premiere Elements you can find often suggestions for your computer system to include a quad core processor with 4 GB RAM. A user reports that, even with that set up, his video editing is slow and has decided to go the HD conversion route. Another may say that you do not need a quad core processor, just a faster processor, giving his workflow which includes core 2 duo 2.6 GHz.

  • Premiere elements 11 does not recognize blu ray burner

    Purchased Pawtec external blu ray burner. Premiere elements 11 recognizes it as a dvd burner but not a blu ray burner. How can I fix this?

    Long160
    There is no burn to folder for Blu-ray in Premiere Elements (any version), so we cannot use that escape route. What has been used in the past as a workaround for this "no burn to folder for Blu-ray" is creating a Blu-ray disc image with Premiere Elements in conjunction with a virtual Blu-ray burner with a virtual BD-RE disc. I have written about that in the following blog post
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/11/pe12-disc-imagephantom-burner-pe.html
    But, as for the Pawtec external Blu-ray burner being recognized in the Premiere Elements 11 burner location in burn to Blu-ray,
    a. you may just have an external Blu-ray burner that is not compatible with Premiere Elements
    b. you could try for a Premiere Elements 11 uninstall/reinstall going the route of Deactivation with in the program (Help Menu/Deactivate), uninstall via regular Control Panel route, ccleaner run through (https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner), reinstall.
    Have you tried another USB port? Does the Blu-ray burner require one or two USB connections to have enough power for functioning?
    Also, do you have all you operating system updates?

  • Premiere Elements 12 does not recognize blank Blu-ray disc.

    I just upgraded from Premiere Elements 8 to PRE12.  Now when I insert a blank Blu-ray disc in the BR burner, I get a message "Media Not Present".  It does recognize the burner, but not the blank disc.  Yet when I open PRE 8, PRE 8 does recognize this very same disc in the same burner!  Also, PRE 12 can burn a blank DVD in this same burner.  The Blu-ray disc also appears as a completely blank in Windows File Explorer.  And this is a problem even after updating to release 12.1.  The Adobe chat representative tells me this is a know issue with PRE12.    I find that difficult to accept, since why would Adobe change in PRE 12 something that was not broken? What's the truth, and when and how can it be fixed?

    First, I tried uninstalling, register cleaning and reinstalling Premiere Elements.  This was a mess.  I kept getting error messages when trying to reinstall.  So I had to do a system restore to just before I uninstalled PRE.  After that restore, PRE would not open.  So I did another uninstall from Control Panel and reinstall, without touching the registry.  Then, I was back in operation, several frustrating hours later. But still the BR drive would not recognize Blu-ray discs.
    So then I loaded a BR-RE disc, instead of a BR-R, and still no recognition.
    Then I installed the external Blu-ray burner, and finally PRE12 recognized the blank Blu-ray disc.  I had a sign that this would work when I attached an external DVD drive to burn a AVCHD file, and PRE12 recognized the blank media, whereas it did not recognize any blank DVDs in the internal BR drive for burning AVCHD files.  As a alternative to borrowing an external BR drive to see if this fixes the Media not Present message, I suggest using a much more readily available external DVD drive and try to burn a AVCHD file first.  If that works, then one can be much more confident that purchasing an external Blu-ray drive will provide the solution.
    Yet I deeply resent having to purchase a $125 piece of hardware, which is otherwise useless to me, to fix a bug in a program.  The box promises the ability to export a Blu-ray disc.  Since their lawyers use the weasel word "compatible" Blu-ray burner required, I fully expect them to take the position that now only an external burner is "compatible", and do nothing to fix the compatibility with internal burners.  Potential buyers be forewarned!
    As an alternative to paying more money to make their software work as indicted on the box, one might want to settle for only being able to write AVCHD files to a DVD.  Most every computer (except Ultrabooks) has an internal DVD burner, which supposedly all that would be needed to burn this kind of HD file.  But first, we all need to know, will PRE12 return a Media not Present message when burning a AVCHD file to an internal DVD burner?  What are the field reports of any problems incurred doing this procedure?  Please advise.
    And one more question.  When I burn an AVCHD file to a DVD, the DVD is not finalizied by PRE12.  After burning the AVCHD file, the DVD shows free space available, but after burning a DVD Video, there is no free space available.  Moreover, ImgBurn does finalize DVDs after burning AVCHD files to them.  So Is this failure by PRE12 to finalize another bug?  Can ImgBurn now finalize an unfinalizied AVCHD disc left by PRE12 -- without having to run another session of PRE to burn to a folder now, of course?  If so, how?

  • Premiere Elements 9 Doesn't Recognize AVI file

    I've recently downloaded three long videos from youtube (using a program called "youtube downloader hd"), so I could put together a short little  video. The program originally downloads it as FLV, but gave the option of converting it to AVI, which I allowed. However, when I started a new project with Premiere Elements 9, it pops up saying that the "File is not supported, or the right codec isn't installed." I'm getting frustrated, because I need to finish this video ASAP.

    Thank you in advance!

    Great news, and actually much better than I had expected - kudos to Lenovo!
    Video (and audio) drivers are very fragile things. In regular computing, they are only moderately important, but with programs, like PrE, 3D and CAD apps., the program must interface very deeply with the video driver, and it must be stout. There are many things that can "break" the video driver, and a common one is OS updates. Most Windows OS's are still set on the default update options - fully automatic. This takes place behind the scenes, and the user is seldom aware that the OS has been updated at all. Suddenly, a program like PrE stops working correctly, while most other programs seem to be just fine. Immediately, the user looks to PrE, which is **** just what it did before the OS update - running perfectly fine, but between the program and the Video sub-system, that driver has broken, so things go wrong.
    One workaround is to use a System Restore Point, from before the OS update that broke the driver, BUT OS updates are a very, very good thing. Catch-22, if one cannot install an updated driver, that works well with the update status of the OS.
    Glad that you found a better solution - new and improved video driver. While you are at it, you might want to check for a new audio driver too, as they are just as fragile, and can bring PrE to its knees.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Premiere Elements 9 no longer supports video files from Nokia Lumia 920 (it used to do)!

    I've edited many videos from the same phone (.mp4) with the same software before (last time was 8 months ago). Now the software claims that the "file format is not supported or the required codec is not installed". How can it be? I haven't uninstalled or installed any codecs. The phone is the same. I can still open the old projects on Premiere Elements. I need to get this fixed so I can edit my videos!

    nome2014
    In the case that you are presenting, are you importing new Nokia video into a new project? You say that you can open old projects in Premiere Elements. Do the old projects contain Nokia video from the same camera? If so, open one of the old projects and try to import the new Nokia video into that old project. Imports or not?
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9 running on? Are you running the program as the 9.0.1 Update? If not, please do so either
    a. from Help Menu/Update in the opened project
    or
    b. from the 9.0.1 Update downloaded from Adobe online (Premiere Elements closed during download and installation).
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4929
    I have just downloaded a sample from your Nokia Lumia 920 (1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second* AVCHD.mp4) and had no problems importing it into a new Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project set with the project preset of NTSC DSLR 1080p DSLR 1080p30.
    *Potential issues....
    the Nokia video comes with a variable frame rate, in my case, 4.201 to 30.090, showing a value of 29.272. Premiere Elements (any version) is known to have issue with cell phone video recorded with a variable frame rate. The problem can manifest itself as audio out of sync or just not being able to import the video at all. Remedy...take the video into HandBrake and convert the variable to a constant frame rate.
    http://handbrake.fr/
    Do you need a step by step how to on that? If so, we can supply one.
    From what I have read, the Nokia can record with AVCHD video compression as well as MPEG-4. Both have a .mp4 file extension. Is what you used before the same video codec as you are using now? Please check the camera settings.
    Please review and consider. You can post a sample of your problem video here as a Dropbox link, and I will road test it in my Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 that is working with a sample download from your brand/model cell phone.
    We will be watching for your follow up.
    Thanks.

  • Premiere Elements 10 Does Not Recognize Camcorder

    Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get Adobe Elements 10 to recognize my Canon Elura 60 camcorder?  The program worked fine on my Sony Viao laptop, but the laptop died and has been replaced by a new desktop computer.  The program recognizes my Canon Legria HV40, but not the Elura 60.  The HV40 can not playback the tapes recorded on the Elura 60, so using it to transfer the data is not an option.  I did notice after upgrading the Elements 10 that the list of supported devices did not include the Elura 60.  Could this upgrade be the diference between the original program working with the Elura before but not now?  Any help gratefully received.  Thanks for your time.

    Hi Steve
      Many thanks for getting back to me re this issue.  I am using a Firewire connection and as I said before Elements 10 does recognize the HD camcorder, but not the digital SD camcorder.  I am baffled by the fact that the program was working fine on my Sony Viao laptop that perished.  At that time I only had the Canon Elura 60, as my HV30 was stolen in a break-in at our second home in France.  The HV40 was purchased so that I could record in HD to replace the stolen HV30.  I may try on of the ''freebie'' programs recommended by another forum contributor.  I will buy another software program before I call Adobe tech support at £35 a pop.  If I could only get the tape data onto the hard drive I am certain that I would be home and dry.

  • IMovie no longer recognizes Canon XL2 firewire

    OK, I don't know if anyone else is having this issue. I have rented several Canon XL1 / XL1s / XL2 in the past, and was < easily > able to import the miniDV footage into iMovie. However, with the latest operating system and my G5, iMovie HD 6 does not recognize there is a camera attached via FireWire (4-pin to 6-pin). At first I thought it was the cable, or the camera, but it will connect to a Dell laptop via the 4-pin to 4-pin FireWire cable (but that doesn't help me because then it imports the video in AVI -- yuckkkk). Any suggestions. Canon's website says the camera is compatible and there are no drivers to download. Thanks.

  • Iphoto 6.0.5 no longer recognizes canon ixus 50

    Hi,
    I am unsure whether this is the right forum, but it seemed to be the best match.
    I've been using my canon ixus 50 with iphoto 6.0.5 and tiger 10.4.8 with all updates installed on an intel c2d imac with much joy.
    One day it just stopped working, however. The camera is recognized in system profiler's usb menu, but iPhoto fails to see it, as does image capture, no matter how many times I turn it on, off, pull the usb cable, etc. It's very frustrating and I have no idea what has caused it. It may have been the latest security update as it definately didn't work after that one, but that may just have been a coincidence.
    Any advice? I should mention that the camera still works fine using gphoto2 on my linux x86 machine, so I don't think it's the camera or cabling.
    Sincerely,
    -Kenneth Straarup

    Hi,
    I just tried out parallels and winxp to see if that would properly detect the camera (to try and rule out hardware defects). Upon selecting the camera from the usb menu parallels responded that the device was being hogged by another application.
    I'm guessing this is the reason iphoto or image capture doesn't detect it as well. Now I just wonder what I could do to find out what application that is...
    Sincerely,
