Problem with Classroom in a book

I have been working through the lessons in Adobe Premier Elements 11 Classroom in a book and am having a problem with Lesson 6 "Creating a Picture-in-Picture overlay.  the lesson comes with Greenscreen.mov file to be used in the lesson but when I try to use it I get the error message in a pop up "This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.  As this is the file downloaded from the CD that came with the book and can't understand why I am having a problem using it.

It appears that my first impression of your situation was correct, that is, another Classroom in a Book corrupt/damaged lesson file as confirmed by nealeh's detailed post numbered 5.
You may want to bookmark this thread and the link to the publisher since you may run into other corrupt/damaged files are you proceed through the book's lessons.
Regarding what you wrote
As a further note I went on to lesson 7 creating transitions.  You start by openning Lesson07_Start_Win.prel.  It tells me to open the file Lesson07_Movie.mov in the project assets panel and to open and play it in the preview window.  When I do that the greenscreen.mov that I could not open in lesson 6 appears to be running in the preview mode but maybe that is because the whold clip is done together as a completed mov file??
That might be explained by nealeh's report that the greenscreen.mov exists in more than one place.
The following is the link to the Premiere Elements 12 Help PDF. You might want to cross check with it as you go through your book's lessons.

Give the keyframing another look. If problems with the concept and its working through, please let us know and we can provide some step by step information on that.
Glad for the opportunity to be of assistance. Please do not hesitate to ask if you need any help with your Premiere Elements workflows.
Thanks.

  • Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated by itself and now outlook and address book have each over 340,000. What should I do?

    Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated entries and have now 340,000. I reinstalled microsoft office and, thus, outlook, and reinstalled mac OS X system and applications. While I managed to delete outlook contacts so that I can re-sync with my blackberry, the contacts at Mac Address Book were not deleted and still have over 340,000 entries. I do not mind deleting all contacts since I have back up, but I have not been able to delete them. Also, when I go at Address Book and try to delete or merge duplicated entries, the system takes forever and never ends because of such large amount of entries. Worse, when I do so I run out of RAM memory.
    My Macbook pro is just 2 months old.
    What should I do? Is there a way to delete my Mac Address Book without having the problem above?
    Many thanks

    Okay I will try. First I have lost pictures in catalogs and could not find again.I have tried reinstalling LR4 and when I do and reopen LR4 the same catalog appears in the panel and filmstrip and I have no idea how to get rid of that catalog and start over at square one like it was the frist time it was opened. That would be a big help and I think I start over and avoid the same problems.

  • Sync problem with Yahoo! Address Book

    In iTunes I selected the option to have my iPhone contacts list synced with my Yahoo! Address Book. I have added some contacts directly into my iPhone.

  • Problem with Groups from Address Book in Apple Mail

    I have set up a group in my address book. When I use Apple Mail I use this group to send specific messages to. But for some reason I keep getting error messages saying that my outgoing sever encountered a problem with the messgae. It only happens when I send messages with a group, not if I send messages to single recipients. The group consists of 90 emails, so I can't enter their emails each time I want to send a message to the group.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards

    I am having a similar problem. All the addresses are correct, and I know this because I use them all the time with no errors. BUT when bundled into a group - actually any group I set up I cannot send successfully. I have two groups in my mail program and neither will work.

  • IPhone sync problem with iCal and Address Book

    I have a new iPhone 4 that is not syncing contacts or events. It doesn't seem to matter whether the event or contact is created in my iMac or on the iPhone. Either way, the data doesn't move. During the iPhone synch process, where iTunes tells you what is going on, syncing calendars and contacts doesn't even appear. When I had my iPod Touch, all worked well. I saw a post about resetting in iSync, etc., but when I look there, I don't even see my iPhone, and so far I can't add it. My only option there is to add a bluetooth device. So I need some help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
    Chuck

    You're welcome.
    You can't hurt anything by resetting the sync history on your Mac, and doing so may resolve the problem.
    Syncing contacts direct with a supported Address Book application and syncing calendar events direct with a supported Calendar app on your computer via the iTunes sync process has nothing to do with a MobileMe account - a trial account or otherwise. Completely separate and not related even if you are syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with your MobileMe account on your iPhone. If you are doing so with your iPhone, syncing direct with the Address Book and iCal via the iTunes sync process is not required.

  • FC studio2 editing problems with western digital my book home for mac

    hi--bought a 1TB WD my book home for mac coupla years ago because it seemed like a good deal for so much space, and provided and eSATA hookup, too. Worked ok for a while. Now, with a growing Motion project that I bring into FC for overall color/levels/export adjustments, I'm getting a long-term beachball every time I try to do anything with it. Just did a complete reinstall of FC studio (after running Techtool pro 5 rebuild and optimizing files and volume), trashed the project and recreated it incase the file itself was corrupted, but the beachball keeps showing up once i try to get past a particular edit and play the file through -- something I haven't had problems with before. Have read this harddrive is a real POS/PIA for many because of its internal "sleep" setting and other weaknesses, and am thinking of cracking the drive out of its case and putting it into a plain eSATA/FireWire enclosure. Anybody else tried this or heard of it working? Money's a big issue right now (too many slow/no pay clients), so can't just run out and get a new drive and transfer w/out trying cheaper route first. Would appreciate feedback, cuz this is makin' me lose what little hair i got left!

    My question says: "Final Cut Studio 2 editing problems"; I formatted the drive for the mac when i bought it: journaled HFS+, Apple Partition Map; 2 partitions (and connected via eSATA); which has been working fine as is up till now. The sequence and settings are those in which I've worked on many projects for years with no problems up until now. I am also completely up-to-date with all my app and system updates. I did begin to wonder after posting if the reinstall might be the source of my problems, but it was the interminable beachball waits that prompted the reinstall in the first place.

  • Problem with iChat and Address Book

    Ok, I've been having a problem ever since I used a program to remove my unwanted print drivers and language packs (I forget the program's name). Ever since then, my iChat and Address book will not open. The spinning beach ball appears, and nothing happens. Ichat just continues bouncing in the dock. All I can do with the programs is force-quit them.
    I have tried re-installing OSX (not a fresh install), fixing permissions, re-installing the programs, and re-installing the drivers and language packs. Aside from a complete fresh-install, does anyone have any ideas why these programs are not running and how to fix them?
    Thanks,
    Jared

    I have a similar problem.
    There are 3 user accounts on my iMac:
    I. The admin
    II. My account
    III. My wife's account
    Where only the admin account can administer the computer.
    All the applications work just fine when I am logged in as the admin. The problems appear when I switch to my account.
    The following apps crash immediately on their startup:
    1. Mail
    2. Address Book
    3. iChat
    4. All the Big Bang board games
    Safari browser crashes the moment you enter some input on a page with input edit controls.
    Sherlock when trying to actually use any web service.
    The crash log for any of the above always reports the same reason:
    Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
    Codes: KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000004
    The interesting thing is that each and every crash log reports the crash within the
    com.apple.AddressBook.framework always at the same place:
    c4Sequence::PropIndex(c4Property const&) + 14
    Note that the problem exists only with my account. Both the admin and my wife's user accounts are fine.
    I have no idea where I take it from here. I really dislike the idea of recreating my account.

  • Problems with Captions in IPhoto Book

    I received the IPhoto book I ordered yesterday. Six pages contain mistakes in the photo captions. In all instances the mistakes are misprints of dates (ex (048 instead of 1948). I have looked through the discussion threads and haven't come across anyone who has had this problem. I've emailed Apple Support but wonder if anyone else has had this problem. How can it be solved?
    G4 Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    VBrady:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Contact Apple via their iPhoto customer service page, http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto/customerservice/orderbooks/. You should be able to get a refund. Others have reported success in doing so with incorrect books. Good luck.

  • Problems with mail and address book

    Hi,
    I need help with my e-mail. When I try to add receivers the program jams up and the round colourful thing indicating "thinking" starts to spin. Does anyone know what could be the problem? This thing happens every time when I create a new message and try to add receivers. I have had this problem about two weeks now and it is very annoying.
    Please help!

    3 suggestions:
    1. Quit Mail. Launch Font Book. Select All Fonts under collections, and then highlight all of your fonts under Fonts (Edit --> Select All). Finally go to File --> Validate fonts.
    Based on the crash reports some have submitted corrupt fonts have been the issue.
    2. If that does not resolve your issue, then you may need to rebuild your Envelope Index. Quit Mail. Go to Home Folder/Library/Mail. Change the name of the file labeled "Envelope Index" to "Old Envelope Index". Relaunch Mail and allow it to reimport your messages.
    3. Finally, if that does not resolve the issue, then quit Mail. Go to Home Folder/Library/Preferences. Drag the file labeled com.apple.mail.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and see if the issue is resolved.
    These have worked for others with similar issues recently. Let us know if any of these suggestions help. Cheers!

  • Problem with TOC in long book doc

    Hi!
    I have a book with 16 chapters
    every chapter has its own TOC, including a heading that has its unique paragraph style
    Now, I want to create a TOC at the beginning of the book - using the heading of each chapter's TOC  - so I tell it to use that unique Para style (that I used for each chapter)
    for some reason after formatting the TOC and checking "use book docs" I get an empty TOC with the word "contents"
    any ideas what I may be doing wrong?
    maybe it can't pull from within other TOCs??
    TIA!!!

    It's good that you're looking into this before getting started.
    Search Google for terms like "indexing books" without quotes.

  • Problem with preview of iPhoto book cover

    A friend has assembled a book in iPhoto and we have previewed it by going to File-Print and choosing to open a pdf in Preview. The pdf preview looks fine except for the front cover in which the image and text appear enlarged and shifted, cutting off the top of the cover photo. Attempts to insert a photo with a white border just give the same result - the picture is cropped and shifted.
    We then looked at a previous iPhoto book which David has had successfully printed through the Apple book ordering system. This shows exactly the same fault on the cover when opened as a pdf in Preview.
    Can we be confident that the new book will also print correctly despite the incorrect cover preview? David is using iLife 09 on a 24" iMac running OS X 10.5.8.
    Andrew

    Use the recommended preview method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
    Assume that it will print exactly like this preview shows - you can save the resulting PDF for reference

  • Problem with TOC pages and books

    I'm using RH 8 and generate Webhelp.
    I created a project and had to change some TOC pages and create TOC books instead. I deleted the pages and added books, with the same name. In RH it looks fine but when I generate the TOC displays the page instead of the book. I tried deleting my cache in IE and deleting the page again. Still no help. I rebooted, and even restarted and still got the same thing. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
    Thank you.

    Hi there
    If the page is not actually inside of a Book, the WebHelp generation process will sense that.
    If you want a Book, try right-clicking the page in the TOC editor and choose "Create Book from Page". This should create a book with the page inside it. Of course both will have the same name, so you may need to rename the Book. Or rename the page. Your choice.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Problems with sharing an Address Book via .Mac

    I am trying to share an address book for my company.
    The address book is on a Mac mini, running it's own .mac account, and there are three .mac users trying to access it.
    There are over 5,500 entries and the address book size is around 12MB.
    We can access the database via logging into the mini's .mac account but it is slow and only shows a few fields.
    Ideally we want to share the address book so everyone can see, add and edit it in their own address book. When we set it up this way though within 30 minutes we have all kinds of erroneous entries with no name and some strange groups established.
    Is address book capable of sharing that size of a database?
    Is there any other way to do this?
    Thanks!

    Hi Dozza,
    The good news is YES, sharing an Address Book group(s) is easily done without .Mac
    Since you are on an ethernet network, all you need to do is:
    1. Enable Sharing thru System Preferences from your "main" computer you wish to transfer data from/with.
    2. Drag your AB group(s) or individual cards to the desktop of your main computer - the one you have all the info in... (the cards will convert to vCards automatically.
    3. Place those groups or cards in your Drop Box folder which is: Hard Drive>Users>your "Home" folder>Public>Drop Box
    4. All networked computers will be able to access your Drop Box folder even if you do not want other info shared.
    Of course .Mac is pretty darn handy too!
    Good Luck
