Problems with Premiere Elements 8 after updating to Nvidia driver 195.81 or later?

Hello PRE8 users,
If you have an Nvidia-based graphics chipset, and you've updated to Nvidia driver version 195.81 or later and you're still experiencing frequent crashes and freezes in Premiere Elements 8, then we'd like to hear from you in this thread. As mentioned in the announcement at the top of this forum, we believe most of these issues are caused by a problem with an Nvidia driver that was released after PRE8 was developed, and that the issues should be resolved by updating to Nvidia driver version 195.81 or later. Notes from the announcement I mentioned above are copied below for your reference.
Best regards,
Chad
For Nvidia users, there is a driver update that will fix both of the following issues:
Premiere Elements 8 does not restart after closing on Windows
Frequent and inexplicable crashes with Premiere Elements 8
To resolve these issues, you should update your GPU (graphics card) driver to version 195.81 or higher, by following the steps below.
1.      Identify which GPU driver you have by right clicking on the Desktop > Properties > Settings and in the Display field it will be displayed.
2.      Go to http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us and download driver for your GPU card. Its size varies from 80 to 120MB depending upon the GPU card model.
3.      After the download is complete, run the driver install Installation. This should take less than 2 minutes.
There are no known issues that the latest driver update will cause.
This is an announcement. There is a separate discussion topic located here.
***If the update steps shown above do not upgrade your system to version 195.81 or higher, then you may need to download the driver directly. Use the link below only if the steps above do not update your driver to 195.81 or higher. The download page for Vista and Windows 7 is located here:

Up here I copied and posted my PC's spec's.  Since upgrading to the new driver, my problems increased.  I seem to experience more crashes than before.  Happens randomly and I can not see a pattern.   (I have noticed dragging clips from one area to another on the time line is no-no)

    fair enough.  No need for any unnecessary posts either.  You issue had been addressed ad nauseum already in this forum had you bothered to search this forum (as forum etiquette would dictate) before posting.
    In any case, I hope that your problem was solved.

  • Problems with Premiere Elements 9.0.1 on Mac OS X Lion

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Lion and I am having several stability issues with Premiere Elements 9.0.1 now.  None of these issues occurred on Snow Leopard.  I experienced these issues on a machine that was upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion after Premier Elements 9.0.1 was installed and I also had problems with a Premiere Elements installation on a clean install of OS X Lion.
    I noticed the following issues:
    1) System hangs when trying to save a project.  The "save" window stays open at 100% completion.
    2) Nothing happens when dragging footage to sceneline.  The clips do show up on the timeline, though
    3) System crashed when trying to upload a video to YouTube
    Could you please get these issues fixed and provide a patch for Premiere Elements?
    Thanks.

  • Problems with Premiere Elements 12

    I've been using Adobe's "Elements" applications since Vs 3.0. Each release seems to include undocumented features that cause problems, and don't get fixed until a next major release, for which we are charged a tidy sum.
    "Premiere 12" and its associated "Organizer" are no exceptions. Background:
    1. FINALLY am running a new PC considering I'm using AVCHD "m2ts" file formats generated by Sony HD Camcorder, for which previous PC and versions of Adobe Premiere Elements (8, 10, etc.) were fairly sluggish with their performance. New PC: Windows 8.1, 32GB RAM, >7TB HDD space, Intel i7 CPU, GIGABYTE MB, NVIDIA GeForec GTX 770 Video Adapter...plenty of computing power!
    2. Installed Photoshop/Premiere Elements/Organizer on C: drive, default locations.
    3. Experienced following problems, for which several have been kind enough to offer suggestions for repair, but none so far have worked.
         a. When adding "text" captions, after a few have been created the control panel for text loses contact with the "Style" and "Effects" modules, making these capabilities non-functional.
         b. When creating menus for discs, the DVD menu navigation operates correctly, but the Blu-ray menus do not. The "Stop" markers, while functional for DVDs, are not functional for Blu-ray discs. When a video is played that encounters a "stop" marker with a DVD build, the end action is properly realized with the main menu then making a reappearance, allowing one to make the next choice. When a video is played through to encounter a "stop" marker with a Blu-ray build, the video does NOT return to the main menu, but rather continues playing into the 2nd movie (or beyond) until it reaches the absolute end of content on the disc...at which time we are then returned to the main menu. Finally reading the manual, it indicates that this is a problem! FIX!?
         c. "Organizer," which works with both Premiere and Photoshop Elements, is highly unstable when working with AVCHD files, while it performs "normally" with still images (photos, etc.). I have over 4,000 AVCHD (m2ts) video clips that I was attempting to bring into Organizer. My first attempt was to let Organizer "see" all of the files and to "bring them into" its catalog. However, after a short period of time, with less than 100 or so video clips identified and thumbnailed, Organizer either stops working and hangs, or crashes totally. I found that to get these 4,000 files into Organizer I had to manually pick around 50 or so files at a time, which Organizer seems able to begin its "first stage" of identifying, creates "placeholders" in the Organizer's screen, then crashes or hangs. At that point, I must restart Organizer, which will then continue on to successfully build thumbnails. This process was repeated until all 4,000+ files were recognized and ID'd. Regarding this issue: I just updated my "Nero" to "Nero 2014 Platinum," which comes with its own "Organizer" or "Media Manager." it is VERY similar in nature to Adobe's "Organizer," with one major difference...IT WORKS! Nero's manager imported not only the 4,000+ AVCHD files into its catalog, but rumaged around my entire system finding photos and video files I'd long since forgotten about! I've not yet used the new Nero video editing/production tools, but won't be surprized if I find that all works equally as well.
    Not having any "fixes" for these problems, I find I am forced to use other applications (Vegas 12, Pinnacle 17, or perhaps now "Nero" as well) to get on with our production work. Note: I had been using Adobe Premiere 6.0, then CS-4, for a while but with changes in OSs found that these products as well evolved with issues of their own. Not going to spend the big bucks to purchase more expensive problems that don't otherwise get addressed without spending even more $$$ for the next major updates!
    Help?
    George

    Bill;
    YES! It WAS Sonic that I’d suspicioned was at the core of these issues in the past. I’d run into problems a few years ago with various versions of “Creator,” “Roxio,” etc. as well as another similar products, and found “Sonic” to be the common denominator with all similar problems. I had NO idea that Adobe had also chosen to implement a 3rd party’s product (Sonic) as part of their offerings! Well, that says a lot!
    Also did NOT know that Sonic had been sold off to Rovi! Searching the internet…shows this was a big deal back in 2010! Hadn’t been following these things! Looks like Rovi is out to capture the world…would be a nefarious event indeed if they fail to maintain what Sonic has sold to various entities which have incorporated their modules into the various products we continue to own and purchase today!
    I don’t know which cave or rock that Rovi’s been living under, or which marketing outfit they’d signed up with that provided the evaluation that Rovi appears to be reacting to, but we at least are still engaged in sending off videos around the world via DVD/Blu-ray media (and on rare occasions, VHS tape!). Their assessment that delivery of video by physical disc is dead is either wishful thinking or badly mistaken in my opinion. Try, worst case, supplying a video to a person living on an island off of Queensland, Australia, for example, who has NO internet connectivity!
    I know that streaming is a big deal (Netflix, etc.), and that the new buzzword “Cloud” has taken over a lot of the computing world’s philosophy of late…but neither of these “new” ideas are implemented to the extent they would like to believe…and are the domain of mostly “new” users living in areas where these technologies are available. They are cutting off a vast number of video watchers who employ neither of these technologies nor have access to them, who, believe it or not, are still using VHS video tape, DVDs, and/or Blu-ray media to watch videos! The relatively small percentage of individuals who use (can afford, or have access to) either streaming or the cloud does not justify not taking care of business and dropping support for all these products that implement their procured technologies.
    I for one have great/fast access to the Internet (50Mbps +), but really am not of the mindset that I trust uploading/saving critical data to the “Cloud,” and do not do so…even though Microsoft’s latest “Window 8.1” and several other procured applications provide plenty of opportunity to do so! I think the latest stories re Hacking proves this point…and I have experienced the loss of stored data (websites) over the years via professional website hosting facilities to the point where I know I don’t yet trust the “cloud” to be the repository of my data either…a service which cannot guarantee either the presence or security of data!
    I do also enjoy Netflix’s streaming technology…even though there are occasions whereby a movie is interrupted to buffer additional video data. Sometimes much more frequently than I would appreciate! So…streaming is also not the end all of video watching either! OK…I have rented a DVD or two in the past from Netflix which had been scratched or badly handled, which also provided aggravation as well!
    So long as the industry continues to sell the technology of the day to us consumers who invest in their products, and so long as industry will do what they do best…to continue refining and upgrading capabilities, they must also continue to provide the “cross over” technologies, the continued support that would span at least a few generations of video products that will allow us to continue viewing videos obtained at an earlier time. Right now we see VHS tape is already at its end of life usefulness…and yet there remains support for converting such media. We also see the vast majority of products purporting to support DVD and Blu-ray builds…the latest of video products…and yet, the underpinnings of these applications appears to be diminishing already…
    Thanks so much for the feedback and update and the opportunity to vent! Do we know how Adobe is/will be reacting to these events? Will they spend the bucks to come up with their own code to replace that which is not supported any longer by 3rd parties?
    George

  • Problems with Premiere Elements 10, please help!

    Hello,
    I am in the process of editing some videos for the charity I work for using Premiere Elements 10 but I am encountering some problems...
    Firstly, Elements keeps crashing for no reason... It happened time after time when I was trying to edit a title, to get around it I had to delete the title and then insert a new one and it was fine. However, it has started again. I am just trying to select multple scenes and a title to group them and elements just crashes citing a runtime error. Anyone know how I can solve this problem? An update may be needed.
    Normally when moving around clips on the timeline you get a strong verticle black line across the timeline to indicate when the clip in next to the beginning/end of another clip/title/item on the timeline so it is easy to line things up. This feature has disappeared from one of my projects which is very annoying as I keep accidently chopping bits of clips off. Why has it disappeared? How do I get it back?
    These current issues are making it difficult for me to work and are very frustratig, any help would be gratefully received!
    Many thanks,
    John H.

    Ouch! To work with AVCHD footage both your processor and RAM are way underpowered. Most would say you need a Quad-Core or I7 processor and a minimum 4GB RAM (more if you are using W7 64-bit).
    As it is your project is most likely having repeatedly swap memory to and from your hard disk - which is bad.
    I'm guessing that this laptop is a few tears old and probably has only one disk drive with very little free space. To find out:
    Press the Windows key

  • Problem with Premiere Elements 11 uploading mp4 files

    I tried to upload a video footage for editing. The video was taken using a GoPro camera and the output is mP4. The footage playback on Premiere Elements 11 was choppy and stalled often. I asked someone else with the same program and he experienced the same issue- so much so that he quit using Adobe's software and switched to Mac/iMovie. Any thought on why or how to fix the problem? I emailed Adobe support a couple of times for the problems encountered in both Premiere and Photoshop but have gotten no response from them. Thanks.

    Gumbie10
    Appreciated the follow up. Would like to offer some considerations....
    1. If you are looking at choppy video, then you must be on the Premiere Elements 11 Expert Timeline or Quick Filmstrip in order to see the choppy video in the Edit Mode monitor. Consequently, to see the video you had to import it.
    a. How did you import it? Add Media/Files and Folders to get the files into Project Assets from where you dragged the files to the Expert Timeline. (In the Quick Filmstrip route, there is no Project Assets intermediary. It is Add Media/Files and Folder/with direct to one of the scenes in the Filmstrip).
    b. Once you had the files on the Expert Timeline or Quick Filmstrip, did you render the files there by hitting the Render button or by hitting the Enter key of the computer main keyboard?
    2. Premiere Elements 11 automatically takes over setting up the project preset for a new project. The project preset should match the properties of the source media. Sometimes it does the set OK; sometimes, not. Check to see what the program has set if you did not set the project preset yourself manually. (Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, and Frame Size.)
    3. If you are using the GoPro Hero 3 Black at the 1080p set, then the video codec (compression) is AVCHD (MPEG4 AVC/.H264). The question becomes at what frame rate...30, 60, or other progressive frames per second. From what you wrote, apparently what you have has a .mp4 file extension (that is what is called the container, the format that wraps the video and audio compressions).
    4. Then we come to the matter of your photos. What are the pixel dimensions that you are trying to use for this Premiere Elements project? Have you gotten to importing the photos or is it only the videos that you have tried to import into a Premiere Elements 11 project?
    Please review the above.
    But, I am also concerned about
    Meantime, for still images, I did my editing on PS Element 11 and used Live Movie Maker to put together the video. It works for me. I had trouble with the output (to burn DVD/Cd and to upload to PS showcase) in the PS Element as well.
    Thanks again for the input. I'll give an update later.
    Do you want two separate projects, one for video and one for stills or is all that a workaround for overall issues.?
    Please do not hesitate to ask for clarification on anything that I have written. I will rewrite if necessary so that we are in sync.
    The answers are in the details.
    More later.

  • Problems with Premiere Elements

    1. My biggest problem with Adobe Premiere Elements 10 is it closes out on me all the time. I have a windows 7 computer. When I open it up it will stay up for about a min. then it pops up Adobe premiere elements has stopped working and shuts down on me.
    2. The videos are jerky. When I go to play them they won't play smoothly. They are AVI files.
    have the inspiration browser updated, I have installed quick time player, the computer is all updated, the videos are rendered. I don't know what is going on with it. It should be working.

    It sounds as though these AVI files are not from a digital video camcorder.
    What model of camcorder are these videos from and what resolution are they?
    If they are from a still camera or smart phone that shoots in MP4/AVIs, they're not going to work in that format in Premiere Elements.
    If you see a lot of red lines above your clips when you add them to your timeline, that's a pretty good indication of problems.
    Is that the case in your project?
    BTW, please don't start  a new thread if you're continuing to discuss the same performance problems. It makes it very difficult to follow a discussion because we're not sure what  you've already discussed and tried and what the history of your problem is.

  • Problem with Premiere elements 8

    Hello
    I have the software Adobe Premiere elements and I have a problem.
    Yesterday I tried to launching a new project in the welcome screen and suddenly nothing happened.
    It only said launching New Project and after 30 seconds it gone and nothing happened but earlier this week I edited something with the software.
    I tried to reinstall the software it didn't help.
    How I can fix this problem?
    Thank you in advance

    Eden K,
    Do you mean Export/Share to FLV (Flash)? If so, then yes, and you will do that via the Share tab. You have two FLV CODEC choices. I like the On2 CODEC, over Sorenson, but some like the results with the Sorenson.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Low Memory/Crash problem with Premiere Elements 8

    I am having a problem when editing a project in Premiere Elements 8. I can only edit for about 5 minutes and I get an error from the program saying the program is low on system memory and I need to save and proceed with caution. Within a minute or two of this error appearing, the program shuts down. This has happened when working with projects that use .MTS and .AVI files in the same project.

  • Skype problems with Airport Extreme after update

    I use Skype to call regular phones and landlines. For over a year now it has worked well with my Airport Extreme, however, I noticed that around the same time I updated my Airport utility to 5.5.2 and Mac OS X update on 1/7/11 I am having problems with audio getting scrambled, the person on the other end dropping out, and my voice dropping out of their calls and the sound of me "being in a long tunnel," as they describe it. If I plug the ethernet directly into my computer there is no problem so I know it is the Airport base station.
    I have tried plugging and unplugging the base station and I had comcast reset my cable modem but nothing seems to be working. I have 12 mbps internet so I know it is not a bandwidth problem.
    Please help! Thank you!

    Indeed I have the same problem.  I ended up buying a new router because I thought mine was malfunctioning.  After buying the latest generation Airport Extreme, turns out it's having the same problem.  I agree that it was not a problem until 5.5.2.  Also, I use YouSendIt constantly and it also chokes the Airport Extreme.  It appears to happen in scenarios of high bandwidth usage.
    5.5.3 maybe coming soon?
