Premiere Pro cs5.5 will not open after double-clicking icon

I have uninstalled and reinstalled from disk.  I double-click the icon and the opening screen begins and then closes down.  I've run windows update to make sure everything is up to date and it still will not open.  Any suggestions on what to do?

I don't think that is a graphics adapter, that is an I/O device... from what I have read
--Windows 7 click START and look on the right side
--Go to Windows Control Panel from START popup
--NOTE that I do not have Win8 so can't give instructions
--Click Hardware and Sound and then click Device Manager
--Click the + sign at Display Adapters
--Right click the display adapter and select Properties
The "usual" is some model of ATI/AMD or an nVidia adapter
I have nVidia GTX285 with driver 296.10

  • IPhoto 08' will not launch after double clicking icon in dock

    I recently had to reinstall the Tiger OS and did so through Archive and Reinstall option. After everything was back up and running I installed all updates available through Software Update. But, iPhoto does not launch. The icon bounces up and down twice and then stops... nothing happens after that. I tried looking for the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file and could not find it in the preference folder. Funny thing is that all the other iLife apps work just fine.
    Any ideas not involving reinstalling iPhoto through the CD? I just moved and am still trying to located the iLife CD.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • CS5 will not open after upgrading to Yosemite

    CS5 will not open after upgrading to Yosemite

    Hi Clickchris,
    CS5 Photoshop is supported on Mac OS 10.5.7 and 10.6.
    It has not been tested on Yosemite as it is a very old version of the product.
    Please refer to below document.

  • Events will not open with double click/double click not working.

    Have just upgraded to iPhoto'11 and finding it a pain to use after previous iPhoto.  Events will not open with double click (even though highlighted in yellow) and photos will not open with double click or videos play.  How can we fix this please?

    That sounds very like an issue with your mouse/trackpad and not iPhoto. Go to your SystemPreferences and chck the speed you've set for double clicking

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

  • DVD Studio Pro 4 will not open after installing Leopard

    I had trouble opening my film project in FCP studio 2 but resolved the problem by trashing the preferences. This did not help other programs like DVD studio pro which will not open at all or crashes as soon as it is open. It also gives me strange messages while it tries to open like" Media-application quit unexpectedly." Would re-installing help? I would have to begin with FCP studio pro and then update all the programs again. Is there an easier way to solve this problem? (Leopard is causing other programs to quit unexpectedly but I don't get messages that some part of the application has quit).

    So far it seems the advice when going to Leopard is to due a total clean install of Leopard on a clean drive before installing the applications.

  • Premiere Pro CC will not open any prproj files.

    I'm working on a feature length.  We have a premiere in 2 weeks!  My PC computer shut down yesterday afternoon so I did not restart.  (It sometimes does this)  When I switched it on this morning, I tried to start Premiere Pro but it moved at a crawl and then went into a Not responding mode.  I tried several other times to no avail.  I did an update...no help.  I uninstalled Premiere Pro and reinstalled...still will not open a file.  I need to finish this edit!!!  Any help is appreciated.

    I agree, Jim. Ronn, check out this blog post I wrote on the topic: http://blogs.adobe.com/kevinmonahan/2014/01/13/computer-shuts-down-with-premiere-pro-or-af ter-effects/

  • Premiere Pro CC will not open

    Premiere Pro will not open/start. I click on the icon from the start menu and nothing happens. I've cleaned out my installs and reintalled so many times only to have the apps work once and then not work the next time I reboot. Grrr!

    Sounds like the program is not actually closing.  Check Task Manager to be sure it's not still in memory, as it won't restart if it is.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 will not install on a brand new PC

    I am trying to install CS5 on a brand new PC running Windows 8.1 Pro . The installer says that my computer does not meet the requirements to install Premiere and AfterEffects. However, I know that the hardware meets at least the minimum requirements. Any ideas on how to bypass this and install the two components? THanks.

    Hi aarroyave,
    CS5 has not been tested on Windows 8.1 Pro.
    64 bit support is required for After Effects and Premiere Pro CS5

  • Photoshop CS2 will not open to double click in Snow Lepard

    Since loading Snow Leopard I have been unable to open Photoshop files with a double click. Double clicking .psd file opens PS with the message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." Right click "open with" gets the same result. I CAN open files through the file menu in PS. But, files opened via the file menu and saved as... will not open with a double click.
    The "Open with" in the file info window reads "Adobe Photoshop CS2". Even forcing it to open in Preview and then back to PS CS2, sort of like hitting it with a hammer, does not improve the situation.
    CS2 on and year old dual quad.
    Before you knee jerk a "CS2, what did you expect..." CS2 seems to work fine once open. And I have access to another brand new iMac 24" with CS2 and Snow Leopard that does not have this problem, files open with a double click.
    On my troubled machine the thousands of files in question opened yesterday, pre Snow Leopard. I have found a few PS files that are several years old that do open to a double click.
    Thoughts?

    In a partial answer to my own question...
    I have discovered that the Adobe CS2 files (as well as Illustrator CS2, Microsoft Office X, Silo, etc.) will open with a double click in some cases.
    Files on my main hard drive (Mac pro dual quad with four one terabyte hard drives, Snow Leopard 10.6.1) is a RAID made up of two of the internal terabyte hard drives will not open with a double clip. (They do open via the file menu in the given program).
    But files on non-RAID drives open with a double click as expected.
    It appears that the RAID drive (Apple software RAID) is the culprit.
    It is likely that a simple fix from Apple in the operating system to correct the opening of files with a double click from an Apple sotware RAID drive would solve the problem as the various programs all work fine otherwise with Snow Leopard 10.6.1.

  • Premiere Pro CS3 Will not open

    New install of PremiereCS3 gets as far as the purple window (loading Dlls etc), never gets any further. Happened with 3.0 then downloaded the patch for 3.2.0 update, same problem.If I press ctrl+alt+del premiere is not shown to be running. I have tried other workarounds that have been posted eg creating new windows user account  and deleting workspace.cfg (interestingly
    F:\Documents and Settings\Nearlyworks.NEARLYWORKS\My Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\3.0 was empty - I created workspace.cfg, then deleted it, still won't open)
    I previously had Cs3 running fine on a Athlon 64 200/Asus KV* deluxe 1gb system and worked fine but getting a bit slow esp with HDV so have rebuilt my system:
    GA-73PVM-S2H Motherboard
    NVIDIA GeForce 7100 / nForce 630i Chipset - onboard graphics, shared system memory
    4gb Corsair RAM (DDR2 800)
    Intel E5200 CPU @ 2.5 Ghz
    Creative Audigy zs2 platinum audio card using Kx project audio drivers
    Windows XP pro (MCE) service pack 2
    No antivirus software
    graphics appearance set to best performance (ie Windows classic look- no animated or translucent windows).
    Screen resolution 1360 *768 32 bit (best fit appearance for LCD TV/monitor that I am using)
    I have done a repair installation from disc, still no joy.
    The only thing I remember is that during 1st installation a dialogue box came up suggesting I did not have minimum spec screen resolution - I didn't take of note of what it exactly said but my resolution appeared to be higher than what it wanted so I just scratched my head and continued.I have experimented with other monitor resolutions (which look wrong in terms of aspect ratios) to see if premiere opens but it still won't.
    I have also installed Encore CS3 (that came with the Premiere disc) and this works fine.
    Very frustrating to build a new system in the hope that premiere will run smoothly then find out it won't run at all.
    Should I uninstall premiere and start again?
    Any wisdom or answers most gratefully received.

    When CS3 is attempting to load, what is the last entry with regards to the .dll's. You have to look closely to see them go by. I've found that setting up a video camera to shoot the screen can help. Just pause your tape at the point that it fails, and see which .dll it's struggling with.
    If you have many VST plug-ins, one of those would be a likely candidate. Do you have any Audio programs, like Native Instruments? PrPro will survey your entire system, looking for VST's. Unfortunately, there are some that it cannot use. These usually give only an error message that appears the first time that PrPro tries to load that one. You never see that message again, even though PrPro still cannot use it. Most are fine and PrPro knows that it cannot use the VST. Others, will cause exactly what you are seeing.
    Now, that is not the ONLY reason for such behavior, but I want to rule out VST's first. Still, that last line will give you a clue. It could be that .dll, or the next one (whatever that is), that is the issue. The .dll could be corrupt. If it's an Adobe .dll, your updates should have fixed it. If it's someone else's, then it could be tougher to track down. If you can get the name, then a search should tell you which folder and which program has that .dll.
    Good luck,

  • Flash Pro (CS3) will not open after file 'AuthPlay.dll" removed from Acrobat 9.

    A recent Adobe security issue recommened removal of 'AuthPlay.dll' from Acrobat Pro v9x.  When trying to open Flash Pro (CS3) the program throws an error " The AuthPlay.dll/Lib is missing from the configurration folder" and the program will not run.  Anyone know of a workaround or a way to open Flash Pro without the dll in question?

  • Adobe Premiere Pro Cs6 Will Not Open

    I have an issue.
    Essentially I began installing Adobe Premiere Pro, and it installed halfway before concluding it had allegedly finished installing all the updates.
    This is not true as I cannot click the application in Creative Cloud, and my arrow remains as the standard cursor.
    This is the second time this has happened, as I was forced to reinstall Creative Cloud and all of my Applications.
    I thought a clean install would have helped the situation but it seems to have made no difference, there is no way to open this application, it merely says that it has been installed though is completely unusable.

    What is your operating system?
    Yosemite sometimes has problems, often related to "default" permissions needing to be changed

  • Premiere Elements 11 will not open after required restart following the installation

    An Adobe support tech assisted me with the installation of Photoshop Elements 11 & Premiere Elements 11 using live chat.  Before disconnecting live chat, the tech reminded me to restart my computer before using these two programs.  I restarted the computer and Photoshop Elements 11 opens and Premiere Elemenst 11 did not.  How can I fix this?

    Jeff, 
    Thanks for helping.  I tried going to the link and it offered a few different selections to choose from.  I tried them all.  The one thing it did do, is had me download the Adobe Support Advisor.  This checked for problems which it identifed a few things.
    When I click on the underlined link, it took me to a website telling me there was conflict with another adobe program running during the installation.  I clicked on the button sending the "package" to adobe for their reference.
    I have attempted the whole process over again after going into msconfig and disabling everything in the services tab (with MS items hidden), made sure there was nothing in the startup that was adobe related, and disabled the security.  This still had the same outcome - doesn't open up after install. 
    As directed by the link, I tried to look at the install logs located in :/program files (86)/common files/adobe/installers.  This "installers" folder doesn't exist. 
    Everytime I install this program, it ends telling me the program installed correctly.
    Am I following your instructions right?  I'm learning as we go. 
    Let me know,
    Thanks!

  • Premiere Pro cloud will not open...

    Installed Creative Cloud for a 30 day trial.  Photoshop and other files seem to work fine, but I can not get Premiere Pro CC to open for me.  Any suggestions? 

    Also, What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
    What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
    Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
    For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
    -you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself
    ATI Driver Autodetect http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/auto-detect-tool
    nVidia Driver Downloads http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
    Do you have dual graphics adapters?
    Go to the Windows Control Panel and select Hardware and Sound and then select Device Manager... In Device manager you click the + sign to the left of Display Adapters... and see if 2 are listed
    IF YES, read below
