Premiere Elements freezing and closing after adding a Menu.

I have been making movies with Premiere Elements for awhile now.  Ever since I started, I have had the same problem.  It would hang, and eventually close on me.  I then got the new version, PE8 a while back.  Unfortunately, I still had the same problem. 
I made an entire video having trouble with the freezing problem.  But I put up with it and saved every few minutes.  Now I get to the end and made the Menu pages.  When I almost finished it, it closes on me.  I keep trying to go back into it, with absolutely NO success!  I have been dealing with this for a long time, so I am well aware of needing to turning off the internet and virus software with the realtime scanning.  I also have been manually closing everything I can in my startup menu. 
Every so often I restart to see if that helps, but no help.  So, I have been looking at the conversations here for a while recently and have tried what I think is everything.  I made sure I had the updated version of Elements 8.  I updated everything, all the important and optional updates.  Made sure my graphics card was up to date.  I don't use QuickTime, but I updated it anyway.  I ran Disc Cleanup and Defrag.  I did the MsConfig disabling bonjour, apple mobile, ITunes, Reader.  I had it boot without GUI.  I even disabled the Windows Indexing feature.
Even after all that, every time I open PE8, I gives me the warning message that it is running low on memory!  I don't know what else to do.  Please help.
Now I know you all want to know what the details of my system are, so here it is.

  • Photoshop and Premiere elements 8 not working after installation

    I installed the Premiere Elements 8 and Photoshop Elements 8 on a Sony Vaio with a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 graphics card.  I can't get a new project to start in the Premiere Elements 8 program to make a DVD.  Can anyone help with this?

    I spent an entire afternoon with someone at tech support, this person was very patient and nice, but the last thing they suggested was to uninstall and reinstall the program.  I did this and still have the same problem.  We even went so far as to share screens as I walked throught he problem and still had no results.  I am about to ask for a refund of my money if this can't be fixed.

  • 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.

  • Premiere Elements 7.0 Crashing After Period of Stability

    Hello
    I have been using Premiere Elements 7.0 on my system for some time and after having had it crash about 50% of the time I finally got things to a point where they were working well.  I carefully put a project together, keeping it in small sections and rendering it to high quality video files and then piecing it together in one final, overall project.  I left it for about a month and then went back to it with a fresh mind and began tweeking it bit by bit, shortening some bits, changing some of the music etc., and otherwise greatly improving it.
    After doing these steps I went back to tweak it some more and the program became very unstable, essentially crashing after every right-click of the media on the timeline or whenever I pressed stop after starting preview playback.  I thought this could be an issue with my system, perhaps a Windows Update or new driver or something had caused this.  Well, I got so frustrated, because I had put so much effort into this project, that I ordered Sony Vegas Home Studio Platinum 9.0 Pro Pack.  I backed up my media and project and then reinstalled Vista from scratch, adding another hard drive and installing the latest drivers etc.  I reinstalled Premiere Elements 7.0.
    I tried to open the project I was working on again and the first time I tried it, with my second drive as a scratch disk, it seemed to run very well.  When I started editing the project a bit more it started crashing again in the same circumstances - when I right clicked any clips on the timeline or after stopping the clip playing after starting playback.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do?  By reinstalling my system I have essentially done the equivalent of many troubleshooting steps all at once, and I've cleaned the render cache of Premiere Elements 7.0 and stuff like that.  I'm really trying to keep using Premiere Elements 7.0 and I've mastered the program to an intermediate level by using Steve Grisetti's excellent "Muvipix.com Guide to Adobe Premiere Elements 7" and Paul Ekerts' "Creating Hollywood Style Movies with Adobe Premiere Elements 7" but I am losing all faith in the program, the kind of faith that is necessary when completing long projects.

    Sorry I haven't got back immediately, I'm on the other side of the world (Australia) so I'm asleep while you guys are responding (and I assume you guys are asleep now.)
    I tried deleting the cache etc and re-rending everything but that didn't work.  I tried altering Playback Properties to Compatible or Normal instead of GPU Accerated and I got excited when it stopped crashing whenever I right click anything on the timeline, but it still crashes when I start playback and then press stop or space bar to stop.  So a little bit of progress.
    I'm thinking that maybe it might be the latest Realtek Audio driver that I'm using which is a beta version but I'm not sure that I had it installed prior to reinstalling Vista.  But I will try it later just to see.
    As for the format that the sub-clipps that I rendered are in, they are avi files using YUV 422 10bit REC 709 format.  I think its a professional format that is very large in size.  Each clip is 1280x720 because my clip is going to YouTube.  I would probably have not used such a big file size producing codec but it worked perfect for several months which leads me to suspect that it is not the cause of my issues.  The problem I have is that some of the resources I used to produce these sub-clipps have gone because I forgot to back them up, which means that if I want to alter the codec I use for each sub-clip I cannot go back and re-render but rather would have to transcode from the YUV 422 codec to a different one and I don't know of any programs that even recognise YUV 422 10bit other than Premiere Elements.  And it's a lot of extra work just to find out that it might not even help.
    I have the final almost complete project as a rendered mp4 file that I can upload to YouTube in its partially completed form if I have to, but I think I could make it 10 times better with just a little extra work so I'm hoping I don't have to do that.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements does not open after installation

    Hello,
    I have written before last week. I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 and Adobe Premiere Elements 11.
    I had a trial version of Photoshop Elements 11 and with the code I could access the full version.
    However Premiere Elements did not open after installation. I did not had a trial version so I first downloaded the full program. I went through the whole installation process and everything seemed ok, no error messages. But when I tried to open Adobe Premiere Elements after restarting the computer it did not open at all. Nothing happened.
    I have de-installed and re-installed the program for a couple of times over and over again but with not result. Also tried to download the trial version first and also this didn't work. I checked my Quicktime and updated to the latest version.
    I use a Windows laptop: Asus Intel Core i5-2430M, 2,4 GHz
    I hope you can help me out!
    Thanks!
    Inge

    Yes I saw it but PSE (refers to Photo Shop Elements??) and I have trouble with Premiere Elements..(so the video program)
    The Photoshop Elements worked.
    I am not sure what to do here also the link at your reply "working with your operation system tools" didn't work..(got the "broken link error")
    thanks

  • Premiere Elements 8 Editor closes after clicking OK on "Full Content" message

    I downloaded the 30 day trial of Adobe's Premiere Elements 8 and installed it on a Dell Optiplex GX620.  It installed and opens certain modules fine (like the Organizer, for example).  However, when starting a New Video Project (File -> New) or by clicking on New Project, it loads the module and then I receive a prompt asking to install the Full Content from the DVD/Setup.exe.  If you click OK, it closes the Editor. I ended up downloading the Full Content, and installed it as well on the same computer.  I tried it again and it failed like before.
    Note: I installed PE8 on a different machine (Dell Latitude D600) and the PE8 Editor is launching.  I even received the same "Full Content" message, but after I clicked OK, the Editor stayed open and I could continue to use it.
    So, it seems to be isolated to just that Dell Optiplex GX620.  I tried searching around the user forums for troubleshooting tips and I tried some (http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#Delete_the_Edi tors_preferences; http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PremiereElements/8.0/Win/Using/WS96256bd4ae515969-97 c9190120d9c53f61-7fe8.html; http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406662.html; etc.), however I couldn't fix the issue.
    Any assistance would be great.
    Thank you.
    P.S. - I unfortunately posted this discussion previously on the Photoshop Elements 8 forum, so hopefully someone can delete that.

    The answer was QuickTime.  I changed version down to 7.3.1 which I got on www.oldapps.com and I am finally able to use Premiere Elements 8.
    Glad that you got it sorted out.
    It now seems that Apple has had two recent series of QT upgrades, that just kill certain Adobe applications, the 7.4.x and the 7.6.x. Not sure what the deal is, or why the QT upgrades are not tested with Adobe products, but it seems that both NLE's, PrPro and PrE, plus AfterEffects can be adversely affected. Some have put forth a conspiricy theory that Apple wants to kill use of PrPro on the Mac, so Mac-users will go with some form of Final Cut. However, this does not play with me, as AfterEffects seems to be affected and there is just no competition (from Apple, or others) to replace it. It is used on many, many Mac machines. I think that Apple is trying to improve QT, and is just not testing their updates on machines with enough software, especially from Adobe.
    Still, with the ability to roll-back QT, the user does have a workaround. Personally, I hold off upgrading QT, until enough Adobe-users report that all is stable.
    Good luck to all,

    First..
    1. Have you updated from 13 to the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
    2. Do the problems exist if you disable the antivirus and firewall(s)?
    3. Are you running the program as Administrator? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
    4. Have you refreshed the Online Services using Premiere Elements Editor Edit Menu/Preferences/Web Sharing?
    5. Have you updated the Adobe Application Manager?

    6.Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    7. Lots more we could go through such as deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole
    13.0 Folder in which it exists.
    But, I think that you have enough things going on here to warrant an uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) and then reinstall with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

    If the problems persist after all that then we will adjust to additional troubleshooting maneuvers.

  • Premiere elements 7 and project presets

    Hi,
    I have a question regarding quality of edited video and project presets. I use a Panasonic HDS-9 AVCHD camcorder which is set to record at the XA 1920 x 1080 full HD mode. Once the mt2 files are in Premiere I have tried two of the project presets. Full HD 1920 x 1080 5.1 Channel (PAL) and HD 1440 x 1080 5.1 Channel (PAL). I have burnt to folder and then used DVD shrink (no compression settings used) to package it into an iso file so I can use the file with menus on my Freecom media player which attaches to my Panasonic HD ready TV using component jacks. What I have found is that the HD 1440 x 1080 preset appears to produce very slightly better quality. I was not able to explain what the exact difference was until my 7 year old son described the difference as being 'one of them looks more shiny'. What I think is happening is that anything that has movement, however slight, is creating very marginal screen smear which makes that part of the screen seem less clear. It is not bad and had I not tried the 1440 setting I would probably have accepted it. The trouble is I am fussy, and now that I have seen the difference I need to find out what other problems I may run into if I use the lower preset as the information in Premiere seems to suggests that I should be using the Full HD preset if the footage was shot in full HD. Anybody have any thoughts on this or experienced this?
    Thanks
    Lou

    "What I have found is that the HD 1440 x 1080 preset appears to produce very slightly better quality" is what you say.
    I have sought out your camcorder and checked its specifications and found:
    From what I have read and what you have said, it sounds like your Panasonic HDC-HS9 is recording AVCHD (video MPEG-4 AVC/H.264; audio Dolby Digital 5.1 channel sound) 1920 x 1080i50 (if you have a PAL version of the camcorder = 25 frames per second or 50 fields per second). At this point, I am not sure if you are recording to the camcorder’s hard drive or to a memory card.
    So, I find it appropriate that you select your Premiere Elements project preset (New Project dialog) = PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 5.1 channel sound. Typically it is suggested that the project preset be as close as possible to the properties of the imported video to give you the appropriate frame work for editing. This does not prohibit you from making other export choices and downsizing as in this case. Although how well Premiere Elements 7 can downsize is another question. And, I suspect that your imported video has Fields = upper fields first.
    If you tell me that you are burning to folder, that means to me that you are creating DVD-VIDEO files (presumed PAL 720 x 576 25 frames per second, with 16:9). And these DVD-VIDEO files would have Fields = lower fields first. And you are going from 1920 x 1080 with square pixels to 720 x 576 with a 16:9 flag. I am thinking Fields issue or 16:9 flag issue. But, then the question comes up, why not for both choices of project preset.
    Here comes my questions.
    1. How repeatable and consistant is this slight difference that you are seeing and relating to the project preset (New Project dialog)?
    2. Are you taking the same video, doing the same edits for the comparison of the project presets of PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 5.1 channel and PAL AVCHD HD1080i25 5.1 channel?
    3. I may be overlooking something tonight, but I cannot invoke a scenario to target the project presets unless you are doing something grossly different in the edits or using different videos in the comparison.
    Since there is a lot going on after the DVD video files are generated, is there any chance you could do a mini comparison creating menus and burning to DVD in Premiere Elements 7 and determine if this difference exists then?
    I need to think on this some more to include some aspects that I did not include here now.

Make sure that you are working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path shown. After you deleted the BadDrivers.txt and reopened Premiere Elements, the program will generate a new BadDrivers.txt file but now the problem should be gone.

  • Full startup disc, applications freezing and closing down

    Hi,
    My computer is freezing and closing applications down. It says my startup disk is full. My HD has 120GB and 113GB of it are used. But my iPhotos and iTunes only take up approx 40GB. Where is the rest of the space?? Help topics recommended to check Consol messages; I have 3,524 but have no idea what they mean or what to do about them. For example, the latest is
    06/10/2013 23:15:34
    Finder[144]
    pearlBrowserSelectionChanged.
    Can anyone help please? Many thx in advance!

    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
    iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as "Backups." The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
    To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

    glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies
    to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of
    the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere
    Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
    Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports

  • Differences between Premiere Elements 11 and Pro CS6?

    Hello,
    I would like to know the differences between Adobe Premiere Elements 11 and Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 in relation to video editing. If someone can point me to any resource on the web like a comparision chart of features, differences etc that would be perfect. I understand the Premiere Pro CS6 would have a lot of extra bell and whistles, special effects etc... but what I would like to know if there is a difference in terms of the the quality of the Final Product?
    Our needs for a video editor are very simple. We need to create simple titles and text overlay to show the name of the speaker and/or topic. A few times we the audio was not recorded on the video camcera but we do have the audio recorded for the event on a separate audio recorder in .WAV format. So we would like to sync up the video with this audio. Can this be done in Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
    And in cases where the audio was recorded with video, we would like to increase the gain/volume for the audio or clean up some hum or background noise. Can this be done in Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
    That is it, we do not need any special effects or animations etc... Please let me know if Adobe Premiere Elements 11 can help us meet our needs. If there is any other software that would be more suitable please advise.
    Thank you!

    I cannot speak for CS6.  Here are thoughts from a new APE11 user's view:

    APE11 provides simplicity and good functionality for this stated need.

    If your video and audio contain a clap, you can manually sync by sliding the audio peak along the video.  The audio wave form will be blanked out when sliding, with a frame counter showing how many whole frames you have moved the audio at each moment, so it is a "drag, stop, compare, drag another frame or two, stop, compare" process that works.  (Finer adjustment than whole frames is not possible.)  Once the sync is achieved, select both audio and video track and link them. (The stability of the sync over time will depend on the accuracy of the recorder, and can pose a problem in long recordings. )  
    increase the gain/volume for the audio or clean up some hum or background noise. Can this be done in Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
    APE11 allows adjusting the volume levels and also provides level normalization if desired, but more involved audio cleanup such as hiss and hum removal, compression, or auto gain are not available.
    Please let me know if Adobe Premiere Elements 11 can help us meet our needs. If there is any other software that would be more suitable please advise.
    You should download the APE11 trial to judge for yourself how well it will meet all your needs.
