Premiere Elements 11 says display drivers are incompatible

When I start Premiere Elements 11 there is an error message saying:
"We have detected an incompatible display driver. To get a better and faster playback performance, please update your display driver. Display driver details: NVIDIA Corporation - GeForce GTX 550 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 4.4.0"
And when I click Ok the program continues to load but then the computer freeze and a hard reboot must be done.
I have the latest display drivers and had not updated anyting between the last time Premiere worked and the first time it did this.
I found some solution saying to delete a file called "Baddriver.txt" but the file is no where to be found.
I have uninstalled the display drivers and installed the latest one again, I have also uninstalled and installed Premiere again. I cant update Premiere since it freezes the computer and I can do anything in it.

Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 64 bit....
Thanks for the follow up.
For the video card...Start button, and, in the Search field above the Start button, type in Device Manager. Look to the top of that left column and click on Device Manager to open it. In the Device Manager go to Display Adapters and see what is listed under that...one or two entries and what name(s) do you see listed for video card?
For Folder Option...Start button, and, in the Search field above the Start button, type in Folder Options.
Look to the top of the left column and click on Folder Options to open the Folder Options dialog. In the Folder Options dialog, click on the View Tab. Next scroll down until you find "Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives" and make sure the is a dot next to it to select it.
Before all this, always good to assure that you have the last video card driver version according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card.
Please let us know if you need any further information or need clarification on anything written.
Thanks.

I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.

Hi,?Recently purchased a zen v+ and thought i'd gotten a good mp3 player.got home, charged the player. installed software and got excited to start putting songs on and listening to?it. plugged it in the usb slot and BAM!?"USB device not recognized" so i went into control panel/system/hardware/devicemanager then clicked on uni'versal serial bus controllers and noticed a "unknown device". so i right clicked it and went properties and its saying No drivers are installed for this device. so i went to the driver tab and clicked on driver details and a window popped up saying no drivers are required or are loaded for this device.. then i came to the support page and had a look at some posts and came across http://us.creative.com/support/kb/article.asp?l=2&sid=9287?i read and followed the instructions word for word and still didnt help. went to the creative support downloads page and thought maybe i could download and re-install the drivers for my zen v+ but they had no downloads that related to drivers. Before contacting creative i thought i would come on here and find out if anyone can help.is there a site? or can someone give me a site so i can download the latest drivers for my zen v, i've tried installing them off the cd and it says no new devices found. any help would be greatfully appreciated..thanks for your timebrett?

Photoshop/Premiere Elements 13...are either capable of making time lapse movies from still images?

Photoshop/Premiere Elements 13...are either capable of making time lapse movies from still images? I heard this feature was removed from Premiere 13, after I purchased it =(

jorgeavanza
It am not understanding clearly what program is not closing
Photoshop Elements
or
Premiere Elements
There is the AdobePremiereElements.exe for Premiere Elements (video editing) and the PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe for Photoshop Elements (photo editing).
Right now you keep mentioning Premiere Elements, but I am seeing your description more like Photoshop Elements.
Please clarify so that we can focus on the correct program and try to resolve its problems.
Thank you.

I use XP. When I open Itunes a mewssage comes up saying, Itune drivers are missing ,please reinstall. I reinstall and I get the same message. I use to be able to use Itunes for copying ,etc. but now I can't.

I have Itunes on my PC. I used it to burn and copy music which I had on Itunes. I had some work done on my PC. Now when I open it a message comes up saying, that Itune drivers are missing,
reinstall Itunes.
I did that and I still get the same message. What am I doing wrong

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Premiere Elements 11 Audio & Video are not in sync

I am using Premiere Elements 11 for editing sermons, and recently I have noticed that in all of the finalized videos the audio and video are out of sync about half-way through the sermon. I know it is not the DVDs since they have no issues when running in a DVD player or with Windows Media Player. The DVD's that are formated after service break the sermon into three files. The files, after importing them to Premiere, read "VTS_01_1. VOB, VTS_01_2. VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB" The first file runs fine with no delay, but the last two consistently are off. When I first installed this program I had no trouble with this so I am wondering did I change something or is there a better way to do this.

Is your Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit?
How are you getting those VOBs to the Expert workspace Timeline?
Are you placing your DVD in the DVD burner tray, opening Premiere Elements 11 to use its Add Media/"DVD Camera or Computer Drive"/Video Importer with "Add To Timeline" and the ripped VOBs select in the Video Importer dialog? Or, other?
Please clarify what you are exporting your Timeline to for this playback that is out of sync...file saved to the computer hard drive or to DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen format on DVD disc. Are you setting the correct project preset? If your DVD represents DVD-VIDEO standard is your project preset NTSC DV Standard; if your DVD represents DVD-VIDEO widescreen is your project preset NTSC DV Widescreen?
Each VOB cannot accept more than 0.99 GB. So, when more data are involved, another VOB is generated. Right now it looks like you have 3 x 0.99 GB on your Timeline. What total duration are you seeing? When you get to the burn dialog for one of these projects, what are you seeing in the burn dialog for Space Required and Bitrate.
When quality and out of sync audio occur with the ripping of the content into the video component VOBs, some have tried a seamless DVD.vob approach (combined VOBs in one file) using the computer Command Prompt and then importing the DVD.vob instead of the individual VOBs. I have written about this in a blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/09/pe-dvd-videoseamless-vob-ripping.html
I do not know if we are ready for this just yet.
Let us confirmed the details of what you are doing now as per the questions that I have asked.
Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thank you.

In windows 2nd monitor says no input - what display drivers are used and how can I update them?

HI. I am using windows side of my macbook pro. Yesterday, for some reason, the computer quit recognizing my 2nd monitor. Nvidia is one of the drivers used but I have updated this and it is not working still. Someone said that I should contact the maker of the laptop, apple, and get graphics drivers from them. But I don't know how to do this. Help would be appreciated.

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iBooksX
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

We have two iPod touch 2nd generations, one had to be restored a few days ago and is now not able to have some of the apps back on it saying that they are incompatible with the iPod. Is there any way to "copy" the apps from 1 to the other??

Is there any way to get an older version of the app that can be compatible or to "copy" the app from one iPod to the other?
Or maybe to update the opperating system??

you can by downloading iTunes to your computer/laptop but before plugging it in to the computer make sure all of your apps are on it then just sync the restored iPod to your computer and all of the apps on the computer will go to your iPod.. Good Luck

DVD Studio Pro saying m2v files are incompatible

I have a ProRes 422 QT file that I have compressed using the DVD presets (Best Quality 90 Min) in Compressor. I have used the same preset with no problems on other similar files, but now DVDSP refuses to import the file claiming it is an incompatible format.
Using DVDSP v4.2.1
compressor v3.0.5

Thanks for the help Drew13,
I figured it out.
The file would play fine in QT which was made it so confusing to me.
Here's what I think the problem was. The original ProRes 422 .mov files were saved with a strange start time (was showing up in the Compressor inspector as"-20:-8:-57:-36")
I edited the timecode to start at 01:00:00:00, and that appears to have solved the problem.
Apparently that timecode was corrupting the m2v file and DVDSP didn't like it.
Very strange.

Premiere Elements 12 Incompatible Display Driver problem

I recently bought Adobe Premiere Elements 12 and installed it with no problem. I tried to run it but it keeps saying that my display drivers are incompatible. My AMD Radeon 6950 has up to date drivers and I even tried deleting the BadDriver.txt, but it keeps appearing when I try to open the program. I would appreciate any help. I have tried almost everything.

truevagabond
Great job in solving your own issue.
Just a note, when you delete the BadDrivers.txt file, it is normal for the program to generate a new one when the program is opened again. And hopefully the program now works without display error messages.
That BadDrivers.txt file deletion has its origin in the days of Premiere Elements 9 and has continued to help others with later versions as well...after updating video card/graphics card driver is not the answer. The rationale behind BadDriver.txt file deletion can be found in post 10 of the following older thread
Premiere Elements 9 Tryout Serious Display Problem

Premiere Elements 9 Tryout Serious Display Problem

I will confine my editorializing to "Deja vu, all over again" and describe the Premiere Elements 9 problem that sounds like I was reliving the release of Premiere Elements 8.
I downloaded and installed Premiere Elements 9 tryout, and it worked great for about 7 days. With no changes in the computer environment, suddenly when Premiere Elements 9 was loading a new project, it would stop at PlayerMediaCore.prm and pop up a message:
"We have detected an incompatible driver. To get a better and faster playback performance, please update your display driver. Display driver details: NVIDIA Corporation GeForce....." and it went on to fully name my video card driver. When I clicked on OK, the program continued to load completely and opened to the workspace where the Edit Mode Monitor performance was, best described as, wacky....Timeline content that would not present in the Edit Mode Monitor, Preview Windows that froze in the Edit Mode Monitor, etc. And, Edit Mode Full Screen Previews did not work at all. The technical irony in all this was that I have Premiere Elements 6, 7, and 8/8.0.1 all installed on the same computer, and all were still performing great when I was using them one at a time as a control.
When I went to Hardware/Device Manager and attempted to "update" my NVIDIA card driver, the "update" that installed automatically was older than what is was replacing. BUT, now Premiere Elements 9 did work as expected. HOWEVER, now my Premiere Elements 6, 7, and 8/8.0.1 were crashing at various times from loading to opening of the workspace. I am still hunting for a replacement NVIDIA driver that will fix the Premiere Elements 9 display issue and not kill my Premiere Elements 6, 7, and 8/8.0.1.
In investigating this matter, I noticed that the Premiere Elements 8/8.0.1 "Enable GPU Playback" is gone in version 9. And, now, if you right click the Premiere Elements 9 Edit Mode Monitor, you have a Playback Quality option of Automatic or Highest. That tells me that Adobe was at work making changes in the name of better. And, I am wondering if what I am encountering is related to Adobe's attempted improvements in display which was one of the issues in Premiere Elements 8.0 when it was released. Or, could this be related to making AVCHD a native format? Lots of possibilities.
The above is my long way of saying "Has anyone run into this type of situation with Premiere Elements 9, any workarounds found (other than buying a new video card just for Premiere Elements 9, ???"
At this point, I know of one other person who got a similar message from Premiere Elements 9 and resolved the problem by updating the NVIDIA card driver. But that still raises the question "Do we need a special video card driver just for Premiere Elements 9?" and "Why?"

To Vijay and A.T. Romano:
I am happy to help out any way I can. First, I do plan on installing PE9.0 on 2 other computers, both running Windows XP. Currently, both of these computers (Dell desktop and laptop) have PE2.0 running, with no problems. I will try to do these installations later on today.
The 2 new computers have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. While I have installed PE2.0 on these computers, the program runs slowly. I assume PE2.0 and Windows 7 are not compatible. As I mentioned before, PE 9.0 runs fine on the Dell desktop. It does not play videos on the Sony laptop.
The contents of the text file are..
##FALSE#0#0#0
The error message when the program is launched is..
Display driver details :NVIDIA Corporation – GeForce GT 330M/PCI/SSE2 3.0 NVIDIA 188.67
I do hope this help. I can only guess that the problem is wide spread.
Thank you again.

In a video (Premiere elements 12) how can I control the time a still photo is displayed? I would like a shorter time than 5 seconds, maybe 2 or 3 seconds.

In a premiere Elements 12 video, how can I have a 3 second display of a still photo?

toothdoc1
What computer operating system are you running your Premiere Elements 12 on? Are you working with a NTSC or PAL setup?
Assuming NTSC setup...
You can set a Still Image Default duration so that all the stills that are imported after that set import with the same duration (the default is 150 frames equivalent to 5 seconds in a 30 frames per second system) See Expert workspace, Edit Menu/Preferences/Still Image Default duration.
Once you get your stills on the Timeline (at the preferences set), if you want to, you can change the Still Image duration for one or more of the stills on the Timeline. To do that for one, right click the Timeline still, select Time Stretch, and , then in the Time Stretch dialog set the duration that you want. There the format is 00;00;00;00 (hours;minutes;seconds;frames). So, a 3 second duration set would look like 00;00;03;00.
If you wanted to do the Timeline still duration change on more than one at a time basis, then adjust the first, followed by a copy and paste effects and adjustments in the selected rest.
Please let us know if you are Ok with the details or you need an clarification on anything written.
Thanks.
