Premiere Pro CS4 & Earlier - re-installing Pr 6.0 or 6.5

Hi all
After recovering from a serious loss, I have to re-install Premier 6.0/6.5 again
Is it best to re-install Pr on the primary drive, in my case C Drive or on another drive?
Many thanks in advance
Brian Emmis

I have never changed the default install location so did not pay "much" attention, but I do know that I have seen a message or two in the past from people who DID change the default... and had problems

Premiere Pro CS4 crashes after installing Microsoft DirectX

It looks like I just made the biggest mistake of installing Microsoft DirectX causing Premiere Pro CS4 to crash. When I create a new project and a new sequence to open it crashes. I submit a report and try it again and it crashes again and again. I uninstalled just Premiere Pro CS4 (I have the Production Premium Suite) and now the installer hangs up at the system check. I'm using WinXp 32bit 2.6 Quad Core Nvidia GeForece 8800 GTS 512.

Deacon,
Along with the DirectX update, did you install anything else?
After your installation of the DirectX update, did you also update your video and your audio drivers? If not, that would be my first thing to try. Both of those drivers can be rendered obsolete in a heartbeat, and because PrPro interfaces more closely with those, than nearly any other program, it will fail, while simple players, etc. still function.
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Pro CS4 Installation Failed - Again!

Hi all
We are currently using an old version of Adobe Premiere which I would like to upgrade to the latest version. I want to show everyone in the company how good the latest version is and get them to pay for an upgrade/full version.
I then noticed a free trial download for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and thought great idea. Well done Adobe I can now show everyone how good the latest CS4 version is.
5 days later I still can not get the damn thing to install and work!! :-(
In a desperate move I even tried it on a new Windows XP Pro SP3 - 3Gb RAM - Quad Core - 1Tb HD etc.. and when I try and install the Premiere windows 1.3Gb trial installation it eventually says at the end of the installation process (which takes for ever) "Installation Failed - One or more required components of Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 failed to install correctly." and it shows the following error log:

Over the last 5 days I have looked through this forum site and tried every recommendation it suggests to fix the problem including:
1) Uninstalling / Re-installing serveral times the Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 which eventually comes up with the above error.
2) Turned off all Anti-Virus applications and disabled all running windows applications.
3) I have also tried the WinCS4Cleanupscript process
4) Manually deleted and removed the premiere folders
5) I even rang up adobes technical support line and they said use the forums to solve the problem. Cushy job they have...
None of the above fix the problem...
So here I am. Has anyone got any ideas how to make it run up in trial mode ?
Your help and advice would be greatly appreciated as I suspect im not the only one having this problem.

Day 8 - OK I have finally fixed the problem. I got fed up and purchased the full Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 product and it installed and worked 1st time!!!
I must admit im very annoyed that the Trial version failed but the full product works. The 2 x Premiere Pro CS4 installation CDs went through the installation process without a hitch and I did not get any installation error messages at all.
So my no 1 question is why does the online Adobe Premiere CS4 Trial version fail to install but the full product can ?
For what its worth, here are my final observations from this whole saga:
1) The first thing I noticed on the Full Product CD Installation is it defaulted to and installed the "en_International" version and not the "en_US" language version. For some reason the online trial version defaulted to "en_US" language and I used this option during the trial installations. Maybe this language option upsets the installation process on my UK PC.
Now I have it working im not going to risk re-installing it all again. But if your a UK user and you encounter problems during the trial installation process then try selecting the "en_International" language option. You never know.
2) Another obvious observation is the trial version has numerous features removed and hacked out of it So did the Adobe engineer get carried away with the hacking process and also remove some important installation code and procedures.
After several days of trying to get the trial version to work there is obviously a problem with the trial installation process and it needs looking at. I must of installed and reinstalled it 15+ times and during this time it upset my Dreamweaver CS4 app so forcing me to re-install this application as well.
Please Adobe just give the online users the option of 2 x CD ISO Images to download and burn onto a CD as this could save other users the same frustrating time I have had and maybe give you more revenue.

Premiere Pro CS4 Choppy Playback...

So I have a new HP laptop with the following specs:
HP Pavilion dv7t Select Edition PC
• Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
• Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-720QM Quad Core processor (1.6GHz, 6MB L3 Cache) with Turbo Boost up to 2.8 GHz
• 1GB ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) HD 5650 [HDMI, VGA] - For Quad Core Processors
• FREE Upgrade to 6GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
• 750GB 5200RPM Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
• 17.3" diagonal HD+ High-Definition HP LED BrightView Widescreen Display (1600 x 900)
Anyway, I'm shooting with a hdslr and I use Neoscene to convert the files. Now, on my much worse (dual core,four gigs of ram,etc)
anyway, If I play a video cip in say, windows media player (after converted in Neoscene) it plays just fine. BUT, when I bring that same file into Premiere pro cs4 it's choppy.
Any help would be great!

Hello all,
For what it's worth I found a fix for virtually every issue I was having with Adobe Premiere pro CS4. I installed a pair of 500gb SATA drives and combined them into a RAID 0 configuration. Then I designated all of my projects' scratch disks to the RAID and no more loading or operating issues.
My system is:
Windows XP Pro SP3 32bit
AMD 64X2 2.6 GIG processor
8 GIGS of DDR RAM
2 TB of storage including RAID-0
Dual monitors run from an NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT w/1 gig of video ram
I edit both HD and 4:3 video and have no issues at all. I was at the end of my rope, looking into purchasing a non-Adobe product when I tried the RAID solution. It worked for me, maybe for you too.

Reinstalled Premiere Pro CS4 in windows 64 bit Vista and it worked, then today I am receiving error message 1

and it will not start. Before the reinstallation I was having problems with my computer entering the power save mode. I have reset the mode to high performance. I was unable suddenly to view video on source or preview monitor. Every move I made on Premiere Pro left me with a spinning circle and no choice but to shut down. Now it will not start.

Did you have the full-paid version originally, or the "trial?"
If you had the full-paid version, why did you download the trial?
If you had the trial, it does stop working after a period of time - it is limited that way. If you had the trial, you can never install another trial on that machine. It's a one-time deal.
If you did have the trial, you will want to not only uninstall it, but also run the Adobe CS4 CleanScript a few times, before you attempt to install the full-paid version, or you WILL have problems.
Let us know exactly what you had, and what you wish to do now, and someone can help you.

Error installing Premiere Pro CS4 - "The Installer Database is corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer Service"

I had to replace my hard drive and so I had to re-install Premiere Pro CS4. I tried to do that with the files I had downloaded before, but the install failed and gave me the error message "The Installer Database is corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer Service".
I assumed that the files I downloaded had become corrupt, so I logged on and re-downloaded the ADBEPPROCS4_LS7.7z and ADBEPPROCS4_LS7.exe files. I ran ADBEPPROCS4_LS7.exe and it also failed and gave me the same error message. I tried another download from a different page and got the same error again.
Can anyone suggest what I can do to get my program installed?

Error installing Premiere Pro CS4 trial version

Hi all,
i've just downloaded Premiere Pro CS4 for testing.
During installation the files were extracted and setup was starting. But after the system check the installer says that an error occured and that i have to look in the log file. So i'm not able to install the trial.
Any ideas?
It can't be a problem of the installer, i've downloaded the sources twice.

If you have not done so, make sure that your Account is an Administrator. Turn off ALL Anti-virus, pop-up blockers and sypware programs.
As later Adobe installers rely heavily on Flash, I'd make sure to have the very latest Flash Player (free from Adobe).
If this fails to resolve the issue, you might try to install from Safe Mode. IIRC, PrPro will NOT allow for this, though PS still does. Still, you can test my memory here.
Good luck, and I'm sure others will have additional ideas for you,

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 cannot be re-installed

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 cannot be reinstalled after failing for unknown reasons (no program crash but after a normal start-up after working flawlessly for years). I get the message: "Adobe Premiere Pro Startup Error: Adobe Premiere Pro was unable to communicate with the process "Importer Process Server". Reastarting your computer may fix this problem". Several trials showed that this is not true. -- I uninstalled the program using the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and reinstalled it with the original, registered DVDs. Several trials failed (the antivirus program and the firewall were inactivated). I continue to get the same message. - The Adobe Encore CS4 included in Premiere, however, seems to work normally. But the Adobe Media Encoder CS4 does not function as well. The following message is shown (miraculously in German and translated by me): The product starting point
??0NewHandlerinitializer@ErrorManager@config@dvacore@@QAE@XZ was not found. - I suspect that a faulty Premiere file remains in spite of the cleaning action by the Adobe Cleaner Tool. The black screen of the Cleaner Tool does no longer list any sign of Premiere. The Windows Registry and the C:/ disk were cleaned as well (CCleaner).
Thank you for your help!
Alex Landolt

The Permiere installation went very smoothly after inactivating the
anti-virus (Kaspersky) program and the firewall (Windows 7, Kaspersky). I
had done a first trial and forgot to do this inactivation. Premiere did not
install correctly and I received a corresponding message suggesting a
repeat installation. I used the Cleaner Tool again and removed the
leftovers of this aborted installation again.
Thanks for your efforts to help me.

Can't Initialize Install of Premiere Pro CS4 Trial

Every time I try and install the Premiere Pro CS4 Trial that I downloaded from this website, it freezes and the program doesn't initialize. But under the task manager it still takes up CPU. I extracted the premiere trial folder to my hard drive and I'm trying to run the "setup.exe" in the folder. I then have to go into my task manager and end the process or else it keeps taking up CPU.
Does anyone know why this is happening? It seems like it is only me.
My operating system is 64 Bit Windows 7 Home Premium.

Premiere Pro CS4 eats my C: drive in Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1

I installed Premiere Pro CS4 this last weekend 11-12 April 2009.
I have a Quadcore 3.0GHz with 8Gb of RAM, a 150Gb C: drive fo rthe op sys Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1 and programs, a 500Go D: drive for general data and a K: drive 2Tb RAID0 volume useable about 1.8Gb.
My C: drive was healthy after installation of Premiere Pro with tens of gigabytes free at least. Then I started experimenting with building projects. I put my files on a mix of the D: and K: drives especially the AVCHD video assets on the K:.
While importing these AVCHD assets I eventually got a message from Vista that the C: drive was full and I did a clean up and that gave approximetely 30Gb free, I went back to importing, in a couple of hours the 30Gb was gone, this can only be Premiere Pro CS4 eating the C: drive and never returning what it takes. This of course is a disaster precisely because it is my op sys drive and Vista will periodically want to make new restore points especially before applying downloaded updates from Microsoft. I ahve run also chkdsk and defragmenter with no effect. I think Premiere Pro is using some sort of secret work files on the C: drive somewhere and that they just accumulate, of course this would be a bug.
Support Center does not appear to let me open web support issues even though we are in the 90-day bug fix period and I have registered the product with the product key so that is another bug that gets in the way of fixing the first.
Any ideas please?
Thanks!
Peter.

Yeah, I did not take backups that often cos I did not intend putting the machine onto the net, then I got this device that said it would protect against everything by isolating my machine and making it invisible, I await the analysis by the company but it does appear not to have worked, the only thing that works is very real physical isolation and do not use the internet at all from the main machine. Like I say it simply is not confirmed yet but neither is it denied. You cannot actually go so far as to blame Adobe because stopping hackers is the job of the op sys vendor really so I blame Microsoft, the only blame for Adobe is the policy that some functions require internet connection in order to work when they know internet is not secure, so for instance if you want to use the emulators for things like these mobile phones they want you to be connected, I tried that one phone emulator and it said so, I wish they just put all documentation and all software on the DVD. I can roll back to an earlier Vista version from a USB backup disk that is always powered off, then rebuild as necessary, but I want the security firm to see if it is a trojan in fact first and to see if it can upgrade the security device and provide a roll out of the trojan's work. Right now I am still scripting the documentary and this second quarter is getting this Premiere Pro up ready for third quarter production so I can be philosophical for now, but yes later I will get more disciplined. But at least now I (almost) know the security device is not the all singing wonder they said it was. Oh well. I use a second machine too, a PS3 with Linux, that is what I am using now, this one doesn't seem to get hacked even though it is my sacrificial machine.

Adobe deserves criticism for its shoddy QC, but not for maing you exposing your main machine at risk on the internet. I never do that, and I never have had a virus or malware on it--never in all the years I've been doing this. I have picked up a few on my internet machine, though, but they are easily fixed with the security scheme I use.
As for restore points possibly eating up disk space, which you alluded to earlieranother never for me. Restore points are a half assed measure at best. My security system is a full clone backup of my C drive starting the day I install and OS on it, and every time I add add a program, and every day when I am working a big complex project. Otherwise, once a week. It takes a few minutes only. That way I can restore everything in equally few minutes should anything bad happen, like poorly designed software affecting other software, a virus, malware, etc, and including drive failurewhich has happened twice over the years.
Don't get me wrong, a virus checker is very useful to a point, but real security design has to start long before you install one, especially if your machine is the heart of your business, as it is for me. What is that old saying? An ounce of prevention is worth..........
