Premiere Elements 9 window disappears after loading project

Hello all,
I've been having issues with Premiere Elements (9) lately. I have read other threads similar to my problem and followed some of the instructions (deleting the Pref file, for example).
Whenever I open a specific project (that has worked before until recently), the loading progess bar goes from 0-100 and then it stays there. After that, the entire program disappears. It doesn't crash (as it's still in the task bar), but when I click on PrE9, nothing comes up. When I mouse-over the icon on the task bar, it's just the window buttons (minimize, expand, exit).
The reason I started this thread is because none of the problems I found were really similar to mine.
Any help would be much appreciated.
(Also, please pardon me if this thread is in the wrong place.)
Thanks!

Have you looked at any possible involvement of the antivirus program in the way of recent updates for it? Recent Windows Updates? Can we assumed that you have not added, subtracted any programs that would coincide with the onset of the issue?
Have you checked to make sure that your video card is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
Recently, with Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA video card, answers have come from rolling back the driver.
I guess you tried the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file deletion. But, did you try deleting the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
Do you have the Premiere Elements 9 installation disc for installations files in case a deactivation, uninstall, run through of ccleaner, reinstall is indicated?
But, let me backup for a moment. Is this issue confined to one previously created project or to all your Premiere Elements projects either new or old?
Let us start here and then move forward according to your answers.
Thanks.

  • Help! Premiere Elements 7 won't load project

    Premiere elements 7  won't load my project.  Icon just spins - for about 10 minutes - then it freezes.  Figures that I am so close to finishing!!!  What are my options?  Can I copy the project and open on another computer?  Can I download a newer version of Pre and upload the unifinshed project??  Any help is greatly appreciated!!

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, PrE does not offer that many options, if a Project goes "off."
    However, these would be my first steps, and pretty much in this order:
    Go to the PrE AutoSaves, and change the View to Details, so you can see the Dates/Times. Try Opening the very latest one. Note: if you have not changed the default, there should be five AutoSave files, and they should be located in the PrE AutoSave folder, in the Project's heirarchy. You want the latest one, not the one with the highest increment. AutoSave 03 could be newer, than AutoSave 05.
    If that does not work, then try this - Move your Assets to a new location. Then, Open your original Project. As it loads, you should be presented with "Where is file _____?" and that is what you want.Here is the tricky part. If you have many Assets, and hopefully they are in the same folder, or a few folders, and not spread around the system. I would move all Video Assets to a Video folder, all stills to a Stills folder, all Audio to an Audio folder, etc. as you want to isolate things. When presented with the "Where is file ____?" navigate to the folder with that file, and locate it. PrE will then relink to all used Assets in that folder. This is why I would segregate Assets by type, to isolate the problem, if possible. If all of your Video files load fine, you will get a "Where is file ____?" for the stills, or the music, and repeat. If the Project fails on one Asset type, then you have located the bad Asset by type, and can repeat the exercise, by segregating each file in that Asset type, to a unique folder, navigating to each folder, when prompted, until you find the bad Asset.
    In the tests above, never do a Save, but only a Save_As, so as to not overwrite the original PREL file.
    Good luck, and hope that it is a bad Asset, and nothing more.

  • Team tab disappears after loading project

    I recently setup Project server to TFS integration. I was able to run all the cmdlets fine. One of my projects (QATASks) integrates between Project server and TFS fine. However when I create a new project (Test1) in project server and TFS run the /mapplantoteamproject
    command and then open the Enterpriseproject in Project 2013 the "team" tab initially appears and then disappears. When I open QATasks the team tab appears and when I open Test1 it appears initially and then disappears.
    I have checked addins to make sure Team foundation addin is not inactive or disabled. Pl help - at my wits end. 
    I have also compared all permissions between QAtasks and Test1 and everything is setup correctly.

  • Premiere Elements 8 won't load recently saved project

    I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 8 to create a highlight video.  I made two videos last year and didn't have this problem but this video is slightly longer.  About twenty minutes total consisting of approximately 100 video clips.  I've added one more group of clips and not when I try to load the saved project I just get a gray blank screen.  The load message finishes but nothing appears.  The drop down menus are mostly still grayed out.  No good selections except to press load project again.  This causes a system error that shuts down the application.  Any tips or tricks are appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Dave Flick

    Bill, here is the good news.
    I updated the Quick Time like you suggested but no help.  I updated the video driver but no help.  I disabled the hardware acceleration but no help.  During this time I realized the problem started after I upgraded McAfee.  I remembered the new McAfee Real Time scanning effected my Outlook software.  So I disabled the McAfee Real Time scanning and then Premiere Elements 8 would successfully load my saved project.  What a relief.  I went back and Turned On the McAfee Real Time scanning but changed the setting to only scan programs and documents, not all files as previously set.  I'm back in business and really appreciate your help.  Thanks a million.

  • Aperture 3.2.4 macbookpro lion: image disappears after loading from any project; repairing everything on starting app doesn't fix it. Only restarting the computer works. Any help, please? ... in non-technical language please. Thanks

    aperture 3.2.4, macbookpro lion: image disappears after loading from any project; repairing everything on starting app doesn't fix it. Only restarting the computer works. Any help, please? ... in non-technical language please. Thanks

    “Hi Kirby, thanks a lot for your answer.
    I got one answer, from DMoore, saying:
    “Try Safe boot and then restart with only Aperture open.  Still doent work write back with more details like Ram, HD capacity/free space.  Are these thumbnails or Previews? Have you turned off building previews in AP preferances?
    Safe boot   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    Starting up into Safe Mode does several things:
    1  It forces a directory check of the startup volume.
    2  It loads only required kernel extensions (some of the items in /System/Library/Extensions).
    3  In Mac OS X v10.3.9 or earlier, Safe Mode runs only Apple-installed startup items (such items may be installed either in /Library/StartupItems or in /System/Library/StartupItems; these are different than user-selected account login items).
    4  It disables all fonts other than those in /System/Library/Fonts (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    5  It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/ , where (uid) is a user ID number such as 501 (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    6  It disables all startup items and login items (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    7  Mac OS X v10.5.6 or later: A Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache at (/var/db/dyld/). A cache with issues may cause a blue screen on startup, particularly after a Software Update. Restarting normally recreates this cache.”
    As I don’t know much about the technical aspects of computers, I don’t really understand the first answer, and it sounds like following it might produce unwanted changes.
    But I understand your questions, so I’ll try to answer them;
    "loading from any Project" means that I encounter the problem when I’m using a project, possibly after/because I’ve left the Mac on overnight, and/or  I’ve made a lot of adjustments, and, once the problem is there, it happens in any other project which I open – the images load then disappear.
    I can see images in the Browser, so it only happens in the Viewer(s).
    I’m afraid I don’t understand what you mean by: “If you select "Photos" from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector, does it show you all of your Images?”. I am a newcomer to Aperture, so I don’t know what some of the buttons are for yet, but when I want to look at and adjust my pictures, I import them, as referenced images, then Aperture creates a folder/project in the Library. When I click on that Project (when it’s working properly), all the images appear in the Browser or the Viewers  – without me needing to “select Photos from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector”. I selected it and looked at all the items in the dropdown menu, but none of them seems to offer the option to ‘show all the images’. So I’m not sure how to answer your question except to say that – yes, I can see all the pictures in the Browser or the Viewers (when it’s working properly), but I don’t seem to need to use the Photos button to achieve this.
    Did Aperture work before?
    Yes it worked ok for a while, but I only purchased it on 24th May.
    If I understand correctly, the difference between thumbnail and preview is that the thumbnail is what I see when the “Loading” wheel is turning, and the disappearance of this wheel after a few seconds means that I am now looking at the preview (also, the thumbnail cannot be adjusted).
    So I think the problem occurs when the thumbnail has finished loading; the viewer going blank/grey might mean that it is not showing the preview.
    But I have not changed the default Preview settings in Aperture Preferences.
    My macbookpro details:
    2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 8 Gb 1333 MHz DDR3
    Hard Drive capacity 499.25 GB
    Available 387.36 GB
    I have noticed another problem: I cannot apply the same rating to multiple images: following the instructions, I select a group of contiguous (or non- contiguous) images, choose a selection eg “5stars” using the keyboard, but the stars only appear in the last selected image – even though all the images are still showing as selected.”
    I hope this helps you to understand more.
    Thank you for trying to help me.

  • In Premiere Elements 8, None of my projects will open. Says projects were created in Premiere Pro

    In Premiere Elements 8, None of my projects will open. Says projects were created in Premiere Pro, when they were not. Cannot create new projects either. Basically, the program is completely bricked an unable to do anything once it gets past the welcome screen.
    My projects are all saved as .prel
    They were all working, when suddenly none of them would work any more. I can no longer use this program, and I really need to. Have already tried running the program as an administrator and creating a second admin account. Also tried going to the basic graphics driver.

    Thanks for the helpful additional information. Because of the nature of the description of your problem (references to Premiere Pro which you do not have et al), I would encourage you to go directly to the following which I suggested previously by the following question.
    5. Have you gone the route of Uninstall/ccleaner run through - regular and registry components of the cleaner), reinstall?
    1. Uninstall Premiere Elements 8 via the usual Control Panel/Installed Program area route.
    2. Download and install the free ccleaner and run the computer through its regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts.
    http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
    Open the program to see something like
    Click on "Run Cleaner" with the "Cleaner Tab" selected in the left column of the dialog. Click OK to the pop up to initiate the automatic process.
    After the regular cleaner portion is done, then click on "Registry" in the left column of the dialog. It should look something like
    Click on "Scan for Issues"
    when done
    Click on "Fix selected issues"
    when pop up appears
    Click Yes to "backup changes to the registry"
    when done
    Click "Fix selected issues" in the pop up that now appears
    when done
    Click Close.
    Please read all the details in the ccleaner link before starting. If you need clarification on anything written before you begin, please do not hesitate to ask.
    I use this procedure routine for computer maintenance without issues (Windows XP 32 bit as well as Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 64 bit). It is a widesly used tool.
    We will be watching for further developments.
    3. Reinstall Premiere Elements 8 with antivirus and firewalls off. After installation of 8, now do the download and installation of the 8.0.1 update from Adobe via the link
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4653
    That 8.0.1 installation can be done with Premiere Elements 8 closed.
    Adobe set up that 8.0.1 Update so that they is no 8.0.1 shown in the program after installation of it. You will probably get a message of installation completed successful. The major evidence that it has been installed will be the turn off of the previously default "Automatic Background Rendering" in preferences. You still have to turn off the "Automatic AutoAnalzyer" in Elements Organizer, a must do.
    Please review the above.
    Thank you.

  • Premiere Elements 11 will not open Projects

    I had to rebuild my Win 7 PC. Now Premiere Elements 11 will not open Projects saying that the file types are not supported. It will not open raw DV files either.

    Henry Clayton
    Along with Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 (presumed 64 bit), do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed? Are you running Premiere Elements 11 as Run As Administrator or from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    Can you open a new project?
    When you rebuilt your Window 7, did the source media that went into the existing projects remain in the same save locations with the same file names as before the rebuild?
    How are you opening these project.prel files that I am understanding that you created in version 11 before the Windows 7 rebuild?
    What is the nature of these "raw DV files" to which you refer? Are these DV AVI standard or widescreen files from a capture firewire into the Premiere Elements Capture Window?
    Let us start here and then we can decide what next.

  • Premiere elements 11 won't load

    Premiere element 11 will not load on my Windows 7 PC.  Running the adobe premier elements11.exe file has no effect at all.
    Any help would be gratefully received!

    philw_45
    Did we establish yet if this is a "it worked before but not now problem" or "it never worked" type problem?
    Given you have Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 (presumed 64 bit)...
    Make sure that Premiere Elements 11 is closed. Right click the Taskbar, select Task Manager/Processes, and do an End Process for any Adobe Premiere Elements process that you find opened.
    Make sure that you are working with the Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active.
    Then...
    Go to
    Local Disk C
    Program Files
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    11.0
    and, in the 11.0 folder, find the files named Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe and Adobe Premiere Elements.exe. Double click the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file and see if Premiere Elements 11 opens. If it does, create a desktop shortcut for it and open the program from it. That choice will have you bypassing the Welcome screen when you open the program.
    If the idea goes nowhere in the direction of a solution....
    Do the deletion of the BadDrivers.txt file via
    Local Disk C
    Program Data
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    11.0
    and in the 11.0 Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete.
    and
    Make sure that you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements.
    Make sure that you are running the program as Run As Administrator or from a User Account with Administrative
    Priviledges.
    If no success, at this point, Help Menu/Deactivate within the program, close the program, do an uninstall in Control Panel area,
    use ccleaner on the system, then reinstall the program with firewalls and anti-virus disabled. Speaking of anti-virus, at the
    very beginning of all this, you might want to disable the anti-virus to determine if it or one of its updates has gotten you into
    your present situation.
    An, if all else has failed to work, there is always creating a new User Account with Administrative Priviledges and just opening the program there.
    Let us review the results from the above and then decide what next if necessary..
    Thanks.

  • Premiere disappears after loading

    I'm trying to help someone who can't get Premiere Pro 5.5 to run.  He launches the program and it starts to load, then instead of coming to the recent project window, the program simply disappears.  This only happens for his user.  Other users on the computer have no problem.  He stores his projects on a large external drive that has plenty of space.  I went to the AppData folder and renamed the folder for Premiere, but that didn't change anything (looks like an Adobe tech had him try the same thing.)  Adobe was blaming it on a network problem before I got called into this.  The one thing that changed is that his Documents folder is redirected to a UNC path and our IT department changed that path over the Christmas break.  If Adobe has some default using the old UNC path, them maybe that would make it crash?  But if so, how can I clear that setting out?  An uninstall/reinstall does not help.

    Have you looked at any possible involvement of the antivirus program in the way of recent updates for it? Recent Windows Updates? Can we assumed that you have not added, subtracted any programs that would coincide with the onset of the issue?
    Have you checked to make sure that your video card is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
    Recently, with Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA video card, answers have come from rolling back the driver.
    I guess you tried the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file deletion. But, did you try deleting the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
    Do you have the Premiere Elements 9 installation disc for installations files in case a deactivation, uninstall, run through of ccleaner, reinstall is indicated?
    But, let me backup for a moment. Is this issue confined to one previously created project or to all your Premiere Elements projects either new or old?
    Let us start here and then move forward according to your answers.
    Thanks.

  • Premiere Elements 8.0 stops loading after finding specific dll

    Hi All,
    Just downloaded trial version of PE8.0.  Install went well, but aftr selecting 'create new project' from the start-up menu, the app hangs, and I have to kill it manually using ProcessExplorer.  I thought at first it was my firewall (Kaspersky) but after turning that off, the problem still persists.
    A new project initialises (according to top right status text which is continually moving) and certain applets, filters, etc start to load, but the hang happens when it attempts to load SaffireComp.dll.  Now I have SaffireComp.dll (an audio compressor plugin) as part of my plug-ins for Cubase (a sequencer package), so maybe this is causing the problem, although Cubase is not running when I have these problems.
    Is there an ini file which is loading these DLLs?  In that case, maybe I can edit out reference to this specific DLL.  Alternatively, is Premiere Elements looking at any particular folder on my drive (or maybe even the whole drive?) to see if it can find any audio/video plugins, and then attempting to load them?
    I'd be grateful of any ideas or workrounds you can come up with - I really want to buy this product. but currently I can't even get it to run.......
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It seems that the way to do this is to temporarily rename my Audio .dll folder, for me this was the VST Plugins folder within Cubase. (BTW thanks for the advice, Steve - you mentioned renaming) and then when running PE, hold down <SHIFT> over the start-up screen (and keep it held during the new project selection and the initialisation screen) .  This clears the cache of it list of available dll.s and so it scans again, obviously not finding the re-named folder.  This list is now saved and will be untouched unless you run with <SHIFT> held down again.
    After closing PE, it is safe to revert back to the original dll. folder name, and everything should run well after that.
    However, I also agree that Premiere has no business poking around in my Audio Workstation files - why does it need these?

  • Premiere Elements 8 will not load a saved project

    When attempting to open a saved prel the Elements states 100% loaded but the program becomes non responsive.  Window 7 system.  It will not open a large portion of the auto saved files.  Everything was normal until 8:30. 
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for your help

    Hello, 2481Russell. Premiere Elements has its own forum and you'll usually get better help with PRE questions there:
