Premiere Elements will not run - HELP

This is infuriating as I had the same problem with PE 8. I have installed the trial version of PE10 and when I run the application I get the "Welcome to" screen but when I click on either start new project or open project in seems to go through lots of start up loads, then - nothing. The last thing it does is say "loading Importerquicktime.prm" then it dies leaving the "welcome to" screen. What is wrong please. I had loads of issues with PE 8. It is not looking good for this latest version.

Buy and install a 2nd internal hard drive for all of your video files and projects... 7200rpm and not a "green" drive
Or, use an eSata external hard drive... again, 7200rpm
My 3 hard drives are configured as...
1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
2 - 320Gig data for Win7 swap file and video project files
When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folder and files
3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input & output files (*)
(*) for 4 drives, drive 3 all source files & drive 4 all output files
Search Microsoft to find out how to redirect your Windows swap file

Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing
Steve Grisetti in the Premiere Elements forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856208 and Jim Simon in the Premiere Pro forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856433 use USB externals for editing
A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

Display driver problem - Premiere Elements will not start

Premiere Elements 10 will not run on my computer unless I downgrade to an old display driver. I would do this but it causes other problems.
I am using the most recent driver from NVidia (but a pretty old display card). I get this message: "We have detected an incompatible display driver... driver details: NVidia Geforce GTS 250/pCIe/SSE2 3.0.0"
On Windows 7
Can anybody help with this?

Have you manually gone to the nVidia web site and downloaded the latest driver?
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
This fixes about 95% of these types of issues.
Also, you definitely do have a BadDriver.txt file on your computer. And you may need to delete it to clear this error.

Itunes error 45075, itunes will not run help

from a system clean up and deletion of restore points!! iTunes ill not run I have tied reinstalling, repairing, uninstalling following with an install and still it will not run! I have obviously deleted something relatively important and now the computer has no restore point which will resolve my issue.
Help is greatly appreciated.

The 2096 erro may be associated with running in compatabilty mode, see:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305212
None of the tick boxes on the compatability tab should be checked.
It is also worth checking iTunes.exe in c:Program Files\iTunes.

Premiere Elements will not open

I have been using Premiere Elements 11 for some time. It has been working fine. Recently, it won't open. There is a message which says to uninstall and reinstall he product. I have done that. No help. The message says to contact Adobe support and mention Error:1 Can you help?

Here is an Premiere Elements 12 Error 1 story with a happy ending. Please check it out and see if any of it works for you with your Premiere Elements 11 problem. At this point, I do not think that product licensing has anything to do with your issue, but time will tell.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/6124261#6124261
In the above link the user sought alternative installation files and that worked to resolve the issue as described in the link.
If you were to follow that approach, you could download Premiere Elements 11 tryout files from the following link and then insert your purchased Premiere Elements 11 serial number in it.
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
The above web site offers the tryouts of some earlier versions but does not sell them.
For this to work for you, you must read very carefully the Note: Very Important Instructions at that web site. Otherwise you will be greeted by Access Denied.
Please consider and then let us know the outcome.
Thank you.

Add On...I forgot to ask. Are you working from installation files purchased from Adobe or from a purchased installation disc that came with boxed packaging of the product? If the former, you could always get another download of the product at "My Orders" or "My Products" at Adobe.

One common cause of PrE hanging on launch is the video driver. While not the only possible cause, I would check this out first.
What OS and version are you running?
What video card do you have, both make and model?
What is the date and version of your installed video driver?
If you go to the mfgr's. Web site, say nVidia, or AMD/ATI, is that the latest version of the driver?
If not, download and install the latest, reboot and test.
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Elements will not install!

Uninstall, reinstall the result is always the same; I end up with error: 1. Very frustrating. Does anybody know how I can fix this? Thank you.

Thanks for the reply.
The QuickTIme issue may be our clue here; so let us explore that.
Both Premiere Elements (any version) and QuickTime (from what I have read) need to be run from a computer User Account with Administrative Privileges.
So, I am speculating that if you install and run Premiere Elements and QuickTime from a User Account with Administrative Privilege, both programs will work.
Please see
Control Panel/User Accounts and Family Safety/User Accounts. Do you find the User Account that you are currently using, and does it have the word Administrator underneath your ID there?
If you can get a the desktop icon for QuickTime, right click the QuickTime icon and select Run As Administrator.
Let us get this factor ruled in or out.
We will be watching for further developments.
Thanks.

Add On...what version of Premiere Elements are you using? I see the computer operating system mentioned by not the Premiere Elements version involved.

Unable to validate my serial number for purchased version of premiere elements will not connect to internet even though my connection is ok

i have purchased an official copy of premier elements 13. i have my serial number etc but when i go validate my sign in throgh my internet connection nothing happens. its a nightmare !! I cannot even find out how to generate a rerquest code for offline valiodation. clicking on "generate response code " does nothing. I have jjust spent £79 on this product. will someone please help. ther is nothing wrong with my internet connection.

Hi, A.T.R
Thank you so much for your common sense reply. I contacted Adobe via their online chat help facility. One of their tech guys resolved the issue by re-setting the Hosts file. Now I have seen this in the forums and it basically involves making a back-up copy of the Hosts file deleting certain entries and applying again.. Thankfully this worked for me. But I would urge Adobe to look into this matter as there are many novices I am sure will be extremely frustrated at what should be a straight forward approach when validating their software. Most people would know there internet was working ok and most people would be able to disable anti-virus software etc, but to continue getting a failure to validate a serial number online would in my opinion beggar belief !! for most technically minded folks out there. Most annoying.
When anyone purchases legacy software from Adobe, no one wants this kind of problem. The software is not cheap.
My purchase was Adobe Premiere Elements 13 and it is a great piece of software for video editing. I can however recommend it. It is very good for both novice and professionals
Thank you.

CMC will not run HELP!!!! (Tried conifuring it to use SSL)

Looking for Help. I was trying to configure Business Objects to run with SSL port 443. I configured the Web Application Container Server Settings to use 443. Reboot the server and now I cannot acces CMC through port 6405 or through SSL. My first goal now is to get the BO Server back up and running and I will worry about the SSL later. I did find the config.xml file and tried to change the settings back manually, but they keep getting overwritten each time the server starts back up.
If anyone has a solution please let me know ASAP as I am in desperate need to get this server back up and running.
Thanks.

Photoshop and premiere elements will not start

If there has been an answer, I apologize for asking, I'm haven't gotten any answers from adobe chat and have reached frustration!
I have photoshop and premier elements 9 on windows 7. They worked fine for about a year then both recently stopped working, they didn't open. So I uninstalled and reinstalled from the disk and they worked.
A few days later, the same story. They stopped opening. I've only installed the programs on this one computer.
I could reinstall again and see if that works, but I think there is a 2 computer license which I might have reached since I couldn't deactivate before reinstalling because I couldn't access the program. It also seems silly to reinstall every time I need to use it.
All ideas appreciated!

Bypass the Unwelcome Screen by creating Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor, and restarting your computer.
The Editor's executable is:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
The Organizer's executable is:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
The Unwelcome Screen leaves a zombie process running which prevents the actual program from launching again.

Error -2096, iTunes will not run HELP AAAAAAAAARRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH

Anyone PLEASE HELP.......
My processor died so I now have a new one.
I have been forced to download the new version of iTunes.
Everything seems ok until I try to "run" iTunes and the following error message appears.
Quick Time Unavailable"
"Quick Time failed to initialize (error-2096)."
"Quick time is required to run iTunes."
"Please reinstall iTunes".
Quick Time operates fine on its own.
I have reinstalled iTunes multiple times with no success. Is there a fault with the latest software. Earlier versions worked fine !

The 2096 erro may be associated with running in compatabilty mode, see:

premiere elements will not accept ADOBE ID that worked for photoshop elemets 12

katmama
From one of your prior threads, you appear to be working in Windows 8.1 64 bit with your Premiere Elements 12.
Where are you when you say that Premiere Elements 12 will not accept your Adobe ID - are you at the Sign In dialog step of the end of the
installation? Whatever the location, what is being rejected or not recognized specifically - can you tell if it is the Adobe ID or password?
Are you working with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
Please check out the following troubleshooting steps and let us know if any of them worked for you

I just downloaded Premiere Elements 9 and it will not open Help!

I just downloaded Premiere Elements 9 and it will not open Help!

kmeg55
From where did you download Premiere Elements 9 at this late date? What computer operating system is it to be running on?
Do you have the 9.0.1 Update installed?
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Premiere Elements 9.0.1 update
Are you getting any display card errors?
We have just gone down this type of road with another 9 user, so let us start with what finally seems to have worked for him.
What video card/graphics card does your computer use? Is the driver for that card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of that card? If not, update the card driver. If the driver is up to date already, then delete the BadDrivers.txt file.
For now I will assume that you are working on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
Local Disk C
Program Data
Adobe
Premiere Elements
9.0
and in the 9.0 Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete. 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.
Please review, consider, and then let us know the outcome.
The rationale behind deletion of the BadDrivers.txt file can be found in post 10 of the following thread

Premiere Elements 12 will not run after installing on my HP laptop with Windows 7.

Premiere Elements 12 will not run after installing on my HP laptop with Windows 7. HOWEVER, PE11, PE10 & PE 9 all run without a problem. I contacted HP, and there are NO NEW or ADDITIONAL video drivers available from HP.
I have NEVER had a problem running ANY software on this laptop -- except for PREMIERE ELEMENTS 12!

Premier elements 12 will not run after re-install

Premier elements 12 will not run after re-install - it is legal and registered with adobe under my ID. WTF! The reason I re-installed it was because it could not find the internet - which is working. And premier 12 was working for a while then quit - that is why as a last ditch effort - i re-installed it. Any ideas?
