Premiere Elements 3 doesn't see my DVD drives?

Hi
I have been using PE3 for a long time.
I just got a new computer running Windows 7 64 bit.
I thought that PE3 was working great until I got ready to write my production to DVD.
When I get to that point I get the "No DVD drive detected" message.
I have two DVD writers in my computer both are working normally.
I put a blank DVD in each of them but no matter what I do PE3 doesn't see them.
When I click on the drop down it is blank.
Anyone have any ideas how I can get Elements to see my drives?
If this fails, can I write the project to a folder (that seems to work OK) and then just copy the project to a DVD from there?
Any help welcome
Mike

Many considerations in your present situation, but for now I will leave you with a link to the free 30 day Premiere Elements 8.0 tryout from Adobe.
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=premiere_elements&loc=en_us
Top of the list for getting started on the right foot with version 8.0
a. Download and install the Premiere Elements 8.0.1 Update (Patch)
b. Turn of the Background Rendering (that should be done automatically by the installation of the 8.0.1 Update) but check anyway...Premiere Elements workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/General.
c. Turn of the AutoAnalyzer Feature (See Elements Organizer workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalyzer Options)
There are users out there successfully using Premiere Elements 8.0.1.
I do not work for Adobe nor have any affliation with them. I will take another look at your Premiere Elements 3.0.2 issue and see if I can come up with any worthwhile suggestions.

Add On....If you can burn to folder successfully, take just the VIDEO_TS Folder from the saved folder and burn that to a DVD disc using a program such as Nero (Burn Video Files category, not Make Data Disc) or the free program IMGBurn (strange program but effective for the purpose) using the Write files/folders to disc category. In either case, the VIDEO_TS will be burn to the DVD disc with the right file system for DVD-VIDEO on a DVD disc.

  • Can Adobe Premiere Elements 12 burn a dual layer dvd disk?  If not, which of the components is at fault?

    When I spoke to a person about upgrading from Premiere Elements 10 to 12, I specifically asked if the program could burn DUAL LAYER 8.5 dvds and I was told that it could.  That is the ONLY reason that I upgraded.  Since recording in full HD the files are larger.  I video plays for local theaters. I have been trying to burn a disk that is 7.5GB (2 hours 15 minutes).  I bought RIDATA -RDL 4x 8.5GB disks.  Then had a dual layer burner installed in my computer.  Premiere Element dialog "incompatible disk" The RITDATA says the problem is Adobe, the Geek Squad says the problem is Adobe.
       SO ANSWER THIS QUESTION: Can Adobe Premiere Elements 12 burn a dual layer dvd disk?  If not, which of the components is at fault?  I am trying to burn 18 copies of this video (no copyright infringements) and don't tell me to to divide it into 3 disks.

    Can Adobe Premiere Elements 12 burn a dual layer dvd disk?
    Short answer: Yes.
    What are you burning to DVD disc - DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc or AVCHD format on DVD?
    Does your DVD CD burner support double layer single sided discs?
    Premiere Elements is supposed to (been there and done that....)
    1. burn to Folder (8.5) for Publish+Share/Disc/DVD and Publish+Share/Disc/AVCHD
    (you take the VIDEO_TS for the former and BDMV Folder in the latter to a program like ImgBurn
    for the actual burn to the DVD double layer single sided disc)
    2. burn to disc 8.5 GB/240 minutes
    Have you gone the burn to folder Folder (8.5 GB) route?
    Have you tried another brand of disc in spite of by the disc manufacturer and the Geek Squad are telling you?
    A double layer single sided disc is labelled 8.5 GB/240 minutes. In reality, that 8.5 GB is 7.95 GB. Where are you
    coming up with 7.5 GB for your disc? Was that due to typing glitch?
    Please review and consider. Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • We tried to install Adobe Premiere Element and it keeps saying the E drive is empty.

    Adobe Premiere Elements 13.1 keeps saying the E drive is empty.  We got around it by changing the name to another letter.  Why did it do this?

    Please explain your question a bit further. Is the following your scenario?
    1. You installed Adobe Premiere Elements 13 (on what computer operating system?) Assumed from installation disc and to the default location on the Local Drive C.
    2. You are inserting your installation disc into the burner tray, the burner being the E drive? And, you get a message about empty E drive instead of the AutoPlay for
    you to click on to start the installation path?
    There is a known problem with Premiere Elements 13/13.1 where installation of this version generates a No Disc error. The fix for that is deleting or disabling the OldFilm.AEX
    file in the path
    Program Files
    Adobe
    Adobe Premiere Elements 13
    Plug-ins
    Common
    NewBlue
    and in the NewBlue Folder is the OldFilm.AEX file that you delete or disable by renaming it from OldFilm.AEX to OldFilm.AEXOLD.

    I bought at Media Market the CD for installing Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13 but I have no disc drive. Is it possible to install and register it online?

    I was in the same boat as you, so I went to Best Buy and purchased the box (on sale, by the way). I then downloaded the trials separately for Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements from the Adobe product site.
    In the box you should have been given 2 discs (one for Photoshop Elements (PS) and one for Premiere Elements (PE)) and something called a "redemption code" on a square of colorful cardboard with instructions on how to get your serial keys for installation. The single redemption code is NOT the serial/product key you use to install your purchase. Once you follow the instructions on this card you will be shown two serial/product codes, one each for PE and PS. Write them down, print them, whatever, you will need them during installation.
    Now go to the downloaded trial file(s) and run the installer, either for PE first or PS, it makes no difference. During the installation you will be asked if you want to start a trial or use a serial/product code. Choose "I have a code". Enter the product key and you will be golden. Repeat for the other program.
    Hope this helps!

    airport extreme doesn't see my hard drive (free agent 500Gb)

    A few things to check are:
    Make sure that the drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or FAT32. The normal Windows format of NTFS will not work.
    The USB port at the AirPort Exteme is under powered. You almost always need to use a powered USB hub with a drive at this port, even if the drive has its own power supply.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12 doesn't import MOV Files

    Hi, All!
    I'm working on Windows 8.1 64 bit and use Adobe Premiere Elements 12. I've downloaded and installed on my PC latest version of Apple QuickTime 7.7.4.1680.86 from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    I've trying to use some free stuff from http://www.detonationfilms.com/Stock_Directory.html and mix it with my video. You may download example of Pre-Keyed Explosions using direct link: http://www.detfilmsshockwave.com/DVExplosion01.zip or any other stuff from this site...
    ...but my Adobe Premiere Elements 12 with installed the latest updates doesn't import these MOV Files with codec PNG Image
    In fact, Apple does not offer ProRes components for QuickTime on Windows, but I don't know do this problem interact with my trouble?
    IMHO, it's best  to look at the crash logs for QT32Server! I've found executable QT32Server on my PC in next folder:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer\CAHeadless\32\Adobe QT32 Server.exe, but can't found any import logs on my Windows 8.1 including hidden folders. I have trying to check the windows events log for errors %windir%\system32\eventvwr.msc /s but it contains no necessary items.
    I have trying to re-install version 6.5.2 of Apple QuickTime, but without success. May be I must try to install any other older version, i.e. 7.5.5 ?
    I think perhaps such behavior of Adobe Premiere Elements 12 is in design?
    May be I'd try third party free video converter, like SUPER e.t.c. to convert MOV container to AVI?
    Please help me to find a way to fix this problem.

    What is this "codec PNG image" that is contained/wrapped by the .mov format? What are the video and audio properties of this video...frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio, et al.
    It sounds like you have Premiere Elements 12 is running on some version of Windows with QuickTime (latest version) installed on the same computer as Premiere Elements. Great. Requirement for QuickTime met.
    Where is this PNG.mov coming from? And what type of .avi were you thinking to convert to?
    Premiere Elements 12 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime does offer an export with a PNG video codec with the .mov file extension. I am in the process of exporting my Timeline to that type of file and then determining if I can import that back into Premiere Elements 12 project.
    When your png.mov will not install into Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit, what is the specific message that you are getting from the program at that time.
    More shortly after my export of the png.mov is finished. Any minute now.
    ATR
    Add On....The png.mov produced by Premiere Elements 12 Window 7 64 bit could be imported into a Premiere Elements 12 project. I am now going to my laptop which has Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit to do the same thing and see what happens there. Back soon.
