Project Assets Window Gone

Hello,
Recently my Project Assets window has completely disappeared, when I click on that section the tab highlights but no window appears.
Here is a screenshot with the window unselected:
Here is a screenshot with the window selected:
As you can see, the program appears to be aware that I have selected the tab, but no window, menu or settings appear beneath. This has worked properly in the past (3 months ago when I worked on my last project).
Here are what I believe are the relevant specs on my machine:
Adobe Premiere Elements 12.1 - updated with most current updates
Windows 7 Home Premiere 64 bit OS - Also updated with all updates from Windows Update
Video Drivers - NVidia GEO 500, upgraded to the most current version as a troubleshooting step (no luck)
Troubleshooting steps I have tried:
1. Deleted the preferences file as per several posts related to this topic.
2. Updating windows, video drivers, and premiere elements to the latest version. (video drivers needed updates, everything else was already at the most current version)
2. Adding content in both Quick and Guided mode, then switched to Expert Mode and selected the tab
3. Uninstalled Premiere Elements entirely, then reinstalled.
4. Opened old project files where this had worked (now it doesn't)
5. Saved project with a new name.
At this point I'm not entirely sure what else to try, any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Shawn

Any new developments in trying to get your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Project Assets Palette to open?
If suggestions in post numbered 7 did not advance the cause, then I have two new troubleshooting avenues for your
consideration
Thought 1.....
1. Open a new project, go immediately to Tools Menu/Movie Menus and select the General/Fun disc menu theme. Hit Continue to open to the Movie Menu
Customization area. Look to the right to where you find "Menu Background" and underneath that Video or Still. Browse to and select a jpg for the main menu insert. Click Done to get out of the Movie Menu Customization area.
2. Click on Project Assets. Does it now open to reveal a copy of the jpg that you just inserted into the General/Fun disc menu theme's main menu?
Thought 1.....
1. Open Premiere Elements Expert workspace, click on Organizer Tab at bottom of the workspace to open the Elements Organizer workspace.
2, Then File Menu/Manage Catalogs/Catalog Manger and create a new catalog.
3. Go back to the Premiere Elements workspace and determine if Project Assets is now opening and closing as expected.
What may be done here also is to delete the Elements Organizer settings file...In the Elements Organizer workspace, Edit Menu/Preferences/General
and click on Restore Default Settings.
Please let us know the status of Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Project Assets.
Thanks.

Cannot see Project Assets Window

When I open certain projects, the Project Assets Window is no longer showing when I click on the arrow that is supposed to open the window. I've re installed twice, run ccleaner, and deleted the prefs file 2 times. The window only opens on two project files and it no longer shows on new projects.

From the Premiere Elements Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042180
•What version of Premiere Elements? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Elements 9 with the 9.0.1 update).
•What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
•Have you installed any recent program or OS updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
•What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
•If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
•What were you doing when the problem occurred?
•What other software are you running?
•Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed? How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
•Has this ever worked before? If so, do you recall any changes you made to Premiere Elements, such as adding Plug-ins, brushes, etc.? Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers; or installing/uninstalling any programs?

Where is my Project Assets window?

About a week ago this thing disappeared. Go to 'Add media' from Files and Folders, and formerly I'd see what I'd chosen in the Project Assets window that would then pop up. That window no longer exists. Choosing "Project Assets" highlights the tab (the one called... you guessed it, "Project Assets") but no window appears.
Have tried with photos and movies. To no avail. Am not doing anything different.
Version is 11.0

Expert.
Windows 7 64 bit
What the config/prefs file deletion did:
Reverted to "Quick" mode when I restarted program.
Nothing else. Project Assets still don't show.
A discovery since posing the original question: in some of my old .prel files the Project Assets toggle works normally, and shows me the media I've chosen to work with. If/when I figure out the difference between those old files in which the PA toggle still works, those old files in which it no longer works, I'll post that here.
IMAGES:
Unsure if these are clear or not - but the first image is of the program without my having chosen "Project Assets." Here, I've added a *.wav file and a *.jpg. Yet when I choose "Project Assets," the only change is the 'Project Assets' tab is highlighted (though not in any bright color, maybe 'highlighted' isn't the correct word). But it does indicate the program understands I'm toggling the Project Assets off and on (which is why I mentioned this in the first place).

Cannot resize project assets window

I am unable to see the files in project assets window. The handle in the lower right corner shows up but when i try to drag the handle nothing happens.

On what operating system is your Premiere Elements 11?
Has the problem persisted even if you start a new project? Is this a "worked before but not now" problem or a "never worked" problem?
What is in the Project Assets area when you attempt to resize it? How many files (videos, what properties including duration, how many; photos, what pixel dimensions, how many)?
If problem remains when starting new project, for starters, try deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file. The route to it in Windows 7 or 8 64 bit is:
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
11.0
and in the 11.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. To see that path, make sure that you have the Folder Options Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active.
After you reopen Premiere Elements 11 after that deletion is the problem still there?
We will be watching for your results in order to decide what next if necessary.

How do I sort clips in the Project Assets window by date and time before dragging into the timeline?

I am using Elements 12 and don't seem able to sort clips by time and date (when using clips from different cameras) as we were able to in an earlier version of the program.

Roger A
I will think about it some more to make sure I am not overlooking anything, but, as far as can be determined, your sorting choices in Project Assets are under Sort by, with only two options:
a. File Name (ascending)
b. Duration (ascending)

Premiere Elements 12 Project Assets panel will not drop. Reloaded software and problem persists.

My project assets panel went kaflooey. I've seen this question raised in other Premiere 12 forums, but never fixed. I removed and reloaded the software and the problem persists.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running? I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit for now.
First try...deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs.
Local Disk C

Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
12.0
and in the 12.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which
the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives enabled so that you can
see the complete path cited.
If no success with the above, then...
With video or still in Documents and Premiere Elements opened to the Expert workspace, right click the computer taskbar and select Cascade Windows.
Then drag video or still from Documents into the Premiere Elements Expert workspace Timeline.
Does Project Assets pop open?
Please review and consider, and then we will decide what next based on the details in your reply.

Premeire Elements 13 - can't import files into Project Assets, Expert Mode. Win8.1

Hello there - I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Can't seem to figure this out. In other computers, I have imported files into the Project Assets area to "pre-edit" before adding to timeline. I can add media directly to timeline in Quick Mode, but it's too cumbersome. Really need ability to select segments of media in the Project Assets list.
Any help greatly appreciated as I spent a ton of $$ on a new computer and program!!
Thanks folks!

Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
What is the typical outcome...
a. Expert workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders/and no import into Expert workspace Project Assets, but you do find the import switching to Quick workspace Filmstrip?
b. Quick workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders and media goes directly to Filmstrip. And, if you switch to Expert workspace, you find copy of import in Project Assets?
c. Other

No encoding occurs in "Project info" window

Can anyone explain why no encoding seems to occur in the "Project info" window? I have a small project with a single "Asset," a .mov file. To the right under "Encoding" is an empty progress bar region. Even when I save the project as a disc image, there is no activity in this region. Looking at p. 342 of David Pogue's "iMovie '09 & iDVD," the graphic suggests that these assets should be encoded.
Jim

Identical Problem.
In addition , the pulldown menu in Advanced, is partly grayed out, "Encode in Background" is grayed out and not active. If I remember correctly this is what allows all assets to be encoded before burning the actual disk. A tell tale sign it is working is when your project file becomes huge on your hard drive.
trying to Burn a disk just goes no where for a long time, then eventually spits out the blank DVD....
Tried DVD+R, then tried DVD-R with no luck on either type of blank disk.
Also, in the Project Info window, the assets are also grayed out, and no progress ever occurs in the Encoding progress bar.
The Project file is fully functional and all the assets are accounted for and working.
Any help appreciated

PrE11: Project Assets box hides part of Preview Monitor

When you select the Adjust or Applied Effects buttons the displayed menus convienently slide the Preview Monitor to the left. When you select the Project Assets button and the menu drops it partially hides the Preview Monitor. It can be more or less depending on the adjustable size of the Project Assets menu. The Preview Monitor does not move out of the way like with the Adjust or Applied Effects menus.
Can the Preview Monitor be somehow moved or made to move? Can the Project Assets box be moved?

The computer has a NVIDIA gpu, but I can't how or if tell if PrE actually uses it.
Here is what it looks like two ways:
Expanding the time line window will shrink the Preview Monitor enough that it does become 100% viewable.

My macbook suddenly shut down, and when rebooted, imovie project was completely gone. No record of it at all. Have been working on it for days, and it has always been there. Any way to restore it? Thanks.

My macbook suddenly shut down, and when rebooted, imovie project was completely gone. No record of it at all. Have been working on it for days, and it has always been there. Other projects are still there. Any way to restore it? Thanks.

I figured it out!!!
Hey guys! Here's what I did that saved my project.
-SHORT VERSION-
Use the Finder window on your Mac to copy and paste your old project (the one not showing up in imovie) to a new folder so that iMovie will see it.
-LONG VERSION-
CONDITIONS:
The project has to exist on your hard drive. To see if it's hiding around somewhere go to:
Home (your name)>Movies>iMovie Library (right click and select Show Package Contents)
In the iMovie Library folder (the default is usually the date) open it to see if your Project is inside. If it is, you are in luck!
RESTORING PROJECT:
Open iMovie
start a new folder under the iMovie Library (again, the default is usually todays date)
Close iMovie
In the finder window (as explained above in the CONDITIONS section) select the files and folders of your project and copy them (in my case these consist of folders called Analysis Files, Original Media, "MYPROJECT", Render Files, Shared Items)
There should now be a folder with today's date in that Show Package Contents folder.
Paste a copy of your project;s files into this folder.
When it is done copying, open up the "Original Media" folder and all of your images and clips should be present.
reopen iMovie. Your project should show up in the Libraries list.
*If your full project isn't showing in the iMovie timeline (mine just had empty bubbles where all my clips and audio should be) try dragging and dropping the clips and images from the project's "Original Media" folder into the import section of your project. Once the files were reimported, iMovie recognized them all and put them back in the correct place for me.
Hope this helps someone!

Audio ok in Project Assets but disappears in TimeLine

Hi
Am in APE12. OSX Mavericks.
Importing video from Panasonic HCX920.
All was good.
Suddenly - exactly the same conditions - new clips have lost their audio when played in the TimeLine.
The audio is there and fine if the clip is played when the clip in the Project Assets area is double-clicked and appears in the small window.
Also in Organizer the new clips are not playing audio when previewed in the big window that opens for them.
Old clips from same source are playing fine.
In Properties I cannot see any discernible difference, but I am a newbie and may be missing something.
Thanks for your help.
William

William
Conforming of audio is very relevant even for "short" clips with audio.
And, when you import your video with its linked audio or just audio for the first time, did you observe a conforming bar at the bottom right of the Expert workspace in action? If so, did you wait for the conforming to go to completion before moving forward in the project?
I would delete whatever you have in the Media Cache Files Folder (if the Mac version has one). I am not targeting hard drive space consideration at this point, rather I would like to rule in or out damaged/corrupt conformed audio files.
Under the circumstances, I do not see that happening easily but...
I checked your Panasonic HCX920 video and audio specifications. From what I read you could be recording Dolby Digital 2 or 5.1 channel. Which one are you using? And, what are you setting as the project preset? Are you recording 1080p or 1080i?
Have you checked in Input/Output settings in Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO? Or the Mac counterpart.
Also, it may be worthwhile to take an in depth look at the properties of the old and the new. The MediaInfo program is the best for that (use Tree View)
http://mediainfo-mac.en.softonic.com/mac
If you decide to pursue that thought, just be careful with your download and install choices to avoid unwanted downloads in the process.
We will be watching for your progress. Some Premiere Elements Mac users may be by with suggestions specific to Premiere Elements on Mac.

Do not have the option for the universal counting leader in project asset menu

I don't seem to the option for a universal counting leader under the "new item" action, located in my project asset menu on expert view. I am using Premiere Elements 13, on a Mac, version 10.9.5. The others are there -- adjustment layer, title, bars and tone, etc, just not the universal counting leader. Any ideas?
Thanks!

inatgybderstorm
The Universal Counting Leader is there in Premiere Elements 13 Windows 7 64 bit.
I am strictly an Elements Windows user so I am not sure of the history of the Universal Counting Leader in Mac versions.
If you do not find it, it is probably one of the Windows Only features when one compares Windows Mac versions of the program.
Unless a Premiere Elements 13 or earlier Mac user comes forward to confirm one way or the other, I going with this one being a Windows Only for
Premiere Elements 13 and possibly earlier versions as well.

Issue with turning on project 2010 / 2013 - "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."

I get the following error after the installation and configuration window of MS Project: "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."
It happens both with MS Project 2010 and 2013 on a Windows 7 desktop.
I tried installing / uninstalling Office 2010, MS Project, tried installing 32 and then 64 bit versions, clean up, disk error checker, startup changes (msconfig), anti virus, running as Windows 7 and then Windows XP compatible mode.
Nothing helps. I see this issue reported as early as 2007 version of MS projects on Microsoft forums, but I do not see any solution anywhere. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue without having to reformat hard drive? Every other application, including
all other Office programs work seamlessly.
I also tried Microsoft support, after an hour and a half of basically doing what I did before, I was told I have to pay 99$ for "premium" support, so someone can look at this bug.
I have 16 Gb RAM and more than 200Gb or hard drive free, so actual memory is not the problem.

This issue was originally reported with MS Project 2007 and keeps popping up since.
A quick Google search provides more than 200K pages of results of this issue:
https://www.google.ca/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=There+is+not+enough+memory+to+complete+the+operation.+To+free+up+available+memory%2C+close+programs%2C+projects%2C+or+windows+you+aren't+using%2C+and+then+try+again.
And 193K results on Bing:

Computer was defragged already. I run more tests, and specifically when MS Projects tries to run, it tries to take all memory, more than 300Gb, on the computer. (DropBox was running at the same time, and warned that there were no space. As soon as MS Project
stopped attempting to configure itself, everything came back to normal and the available space became available again.)
Looking through older forum posts, looks like this application tries to take "unlimited" amount of memory. Some registry fixes are mentioned potentially, but I was not able to apply them.
Since everything else works, this is a MS Project bug reported by multiple users on various versions of Windows, including Vista and 7, so please provide a fix and not 'not a know bug' lie. All the premium support will say, is to format the hard drive, unless
they have a patch or a registry edit solution. If the latter is true, since the issue exists for multiple years, it should have been already been provided to users.
Also, I am not running a SQL server, or any server, this is an installation on a local machine.

I have a finalized project in iMovie '11. Shared it on Youtube, Facebook, and Vimeo. Then, when I shared it to iDVD, it reverted to a previous version of the project, so my titles and pictures were out of sequence. My final project is now gone!

Then, when I shared it to iDVD, it reverted to a previous version of the project, so my titles and pictures were out of sequence. Now, in my list of projects, my project is there, but finalized as the previous version which is all out of sequence. My true final project is now gone! What happend?
I didn't notice this problem until after the DVD was burned in iDVD. Then, when I played the DVD in a public setting, I was a bit embarrassed by what played.

Hi
My first thoughts are
• iMovie ill behaving - Trash the iMovie pref file - use to set things right
• in reg. to Photos - Did You change iPhoto Photo Library - Then iMovie get's lost as it peeks into iPhoto on start up to see where photos are stored. Set iPhoto back to first Photo Library (when iMovie is not running) then start iMovie.

Where has my airport utility window gone ? when I double click on the icon all I get is an image of a globe and a base station with no options to make changes in my airport extreme.

Where has my airport utility window gone? When I double click on the airport utility icon all I get is a picture of a globe and a base station with no further options available to modify my airport extreme.

Sorry, you lost me on that last post.
Let's start over again.
Open AirPort Utility on your Mac
Are you asked for a password at this point? If yes, enter the base station or device password that you used when you originally set up the AirPort router. Depending when you did this originally, you might have been given an option to use the same password as the wireless network. If you were not, then you have a separate password for the base station.
You need that password to be able to access the settings for the AirPort router in AirPort Utility.
If you see a window listing basic information, click Edit in the upper right corner of the window.
If you are asked for a password, you must enter the device password or base station password that you established when you first set up the AirPort router as explained above.
If you forgot the password, a Soft Reset will allow you to go in and reset the base station password. Might be a good idea to write down that password.
If you are still stuck, then the only option that you have at this point is to perform a Hard Reset to return the settings to factory defaults and then set up the AirPort router again.
If you prefer, you can also do a Factory Default Reset. It's the same as a Hard Reset except for the timing of holding in the reset button.
