PSE 7 with Premier Elements 7

I am upgrading to PSE 7, mainly for performance reasons. I currently use Premier Elements 4 to burn DVDs only.
Is there a compelling reason to upgrade to Premier Elements 7 at this time?
Thank you for your input.

>Is there a compelling reason to upgrade to Premier Elements 7 at this time?
Now I am guessing that your workflow is that you are creating slide shows in the Photoshop Elements slide show editor and then sending the slide show to Premiere Elements to burn the video DVD for playback on your TV DVD player.
Do you use the Send Slideshow command to send the slide show over to Premiere Elements ?
-- If yes, then my understanding is that you need the "matched set" of PSE v7 and PRE v7.
Or from the PSE Slideshow editor, do you use the Burn to DVD function?
-- I think that this will work from PSE 7 to PRE 4, but unfortunately I don't have a way to test that and confirm it for you.

  • Issues with Adobe PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 plus DiskWarrior 4.4

    Since upgrading to the final version of OS X 10.10 Yoesemite I have issues with Adobe PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 plus DiskWarrior 4.4. I don't recall their being any issues while I went through the Beta testing process.  The Adobe products (PSE and PE) give me a configuration message "error 16" and it tells me to uninstall and reinstall. I have done this a few times/  It seems to go through the whole install process until the startup where it crashes.  I downloaded PSE 11 and at least it starts up but I haven't used it to do anything.  Also DiskWarrior 4.4 does not load up from the hard drive anymore (error message) and when I boot it up from disk is doesn't give me the option of correcting permission when repairing files and folders.
    At lease all of otheother software including Photoshop Lightroom 5.6 seem to be working.
    Very sad

    Barbara,
    Yes, I accessed the "updates" menu from the Help pull-down menu.  I also accessed the updates using the Mac Terminal application with results shown in my original post.  Regardless of whether I used the Help menu or the Mac Terminal app, the AAM tool still responded with:
    Update Failed
       Updates could not be applied
       The error log file may help you in identifying the problem.  The, try updating again.  If the problems persist, contact customer support for further assistance.
      The error log file read as follows:
       Photoshop Camera Raw 8.5
       There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1I210
       Looking at the the output of the Mac Terminal app, it shows:
       ... hdiutil: attach failed - no mountable file systems
       Is this relevant?
    Regarding your follow-up message pointing to:
    Update 12.1 installation errors | Photoshop Elements, Premiere Elements,
    the files referenced in this link are present, are correctly named, and they are in the correct locations, so it would appear that these issues are not related to the ACR 8.5 update problem
    Thanks

  • Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements after Mac upgrade to Yosemite 10.10 on iMac

    Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements 12 after the Mac upgrade to OS X Yosemite 10.10 on iMac. I have had a number of issues with software and things after upgrading to OS X Yosemite 10.10 and even 10.10.1.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled both PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 a number of times and everything goes fine until its ready to launch and then you get an error message. Numerous uninstalled and reinstalls don't removing the problem.  Strangely enough  PSE 11 still appears to boot up and I never owned Premier Elements 11 so I don't know if it will start. I thought with Apple dropping its Apeture software and greater integration of iPhoto and Apeture files into Lightroom 5.7 all would be harmonious between these two players. Im not sure where Adobe wants us to go it recently removed the plugin to allow you to update files from LR to Adobe Revel, whats up with that. I now own two version of Adobe software that no longer work with my Mac and now way of uploading pictures from Lightroom to Revel. Needless to say I am pretty reluctant to sign on to a subscription of Creative Cloud with long term financial obligations when I can't even get my current Adobe software to work independently much less integrate with Lightroom. Frustrated with it all!

    Get rid of 'put disks to sleep when possible' and you may see a dramatic improvement (not necessarily a cure).
    That specific problem is a multiple-Processor (including graphics processor) problem, where one of the processors lost track of whether it should be responding to interrupts. You may have a Hardware problem.

  • How to use LightRoom with Premier Elements?

    I have recently learned LightRoom 5 and feel fairly comfortable with it. I'm now in the process of working on movie editing starting with Premier Elements 11. I'm just starting to go through it and I see that it integrates with an organizer that seems germaine to the Elements group. Issue is that I'm already using LR for organization. Am consequently a bit confused.
    Can anyone suggest how to work with LR and Premier Elements together?
    A secondary question has to do with audio file management. I see that the Elements Organizer also includes audio files. But LR doesn't. To date I've managed audio with Windows Media Player. Can anyone offer any suggestions for moving forward with audio management?

    I use Lightroom 5.2 and Premier Elements 11 on a fast video optimized i7 PC laptop with lots of memory.  It even has a Blu-Ray burner!
    My photo and video files are first copied and stored by camera and date.  Then I use LR to organize and preview, review and select both photos and clips.  IMO, the clip preview ability of LR is very good.  LR will let you make some simple edits to clips but I don't use that for video, only photos.  My photos will be a mix of JPG and RAW and I will tune them with LR.  Some of the photos may get some extra masking or HDR work elsewhere and then brought back into LR.  
    As I've preview the clips, as well as photos, that I want to use I put them in a LR collection.  Next I prepare a project specific folder on my SSD named something like "Vacation Trip".   If it is a big project, I may make some sub folders such as city names.  
    The big step is to "Export" copies of all the assets I've selected for the collection.  I open the collection and select everything in it.  Right click, pick Export, set the destination, rename them if desired, select "include video", select "Original" video format, select PSD for images and push the Export button.
    The reason for "Original" video is because I don't want any extra compression or processing of the video clips.  I want Premier Elements to do that.  The reason for "PSD" is that I want my LR adjustments of the still photos to be included before I put them in the project. 
    Next I open a new PrE project.  Before adding any assets, I make sure the the scratch disks are assigned to the project folder. 
    With the scratch disks set, I then load the assets.  I make sure one of the primary video clips is the first to be placed on the timeline as that adjusts the "Project Settings" if necessary.  Then I start building the video with the security of knowing I'm only working on a set of image and clip copies.
    My audio file management is done entirely the old fashioned way in Windows Explorer.  I have an audio assets folder and a system of descriptive folder and file names.  I can preview them from Windows Explorer before I import a copy to a project folder.  Adjustments to volume and clip length are done to he copy in PrE.  I frequently buy a $2 audio clip from Vimeo specific for the project because I like having a license to use the music!
    When I'm done, I move the entire project folder somewhere for long term storage. 
    Hope some of this works for you.  If you have suggestions, I would appreciate hearing them.

  • What file do I play on my computer in a AVCHD disk folder created with premier elements 12?

    What file do I play on my computer in a AVCHD disk folder created with premier elements 12?

    Phantomkeeper
    Just in case note...the DVD-VIDEO folders/files structure is different from that of the AVCHD format.
    For DVD-VIDEO (burn to folder)
    VIDEO_TS Folder
    and your menus are typically found in VTS_01_0.VOB file in the VIDEO_TS Folder
    and your video is typically found in VTS_01_0.VOB file in the VIDEO_TS Folder
    For AVCHD format (burn to folder)
    BDMV Folder
    and your video is typically 00000.m2ts file in the STREAM Folder
    and your menus are typically 00001.m2ts and 00002.m2ts files  in the StREAM Folder.
    If you want a single file (not yet on a disc) that will play back your Premiere Elements export, then I think you need a consider disc image file (.iso or .vdd).
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/11/pe12-disc-imagephantom-burner-pe.html
    If you take the BDMV Folder from the Premiere Elements AVCHD (with menus) burn to folder into a 3rd party software like ImgBurn, you can put the BDMV Folder on a DVD or Blu-ray disc (to get BDMV Folder and an added CERTIFICATE Folder) and play that back with menus on a Blu-ray player that supports those formats on a supported disc type.
    You wrote
    but I was looking for the file like the VIDEO_TS file that plays from the menu in a DVD folder.
    I have never gotten the VIDEO_TS.VOB file (standalone file) in the VIDEO_TS Folder to playback with a computer player or any other. So, please explain how you have accomplished this, including the player name and whether standalone or computer.
    Please review. If you need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask. The situation above is my take on the matter.
    Thanks.

  • How do I open projects created using Premier Elements 8 with Premier Elements 13

    how do I open projects created using Premier Elements 8 with Premier Elements 13

    ATR
    The DVD Creator.dll file was in the proper location but I could not find a Run As Administrator Option.
    I did delete Prefs file and try again to open the app then the project and received the same problem.  And the scratch disks were all directed to the Elements 13 path
    Yesterday I did try additional solutions
    Removed the Elements 13 App vis the Control Panel, copy the original downloaded .zip File to the Desktop and reload the entire application with no success solving the problem
    In addition to that I contacted a site called Rescue.com? and the guy told me that he was a representative of Adobe, which I was not sure was the truth.  He looked at my system and told me that Premier 13 was not compatible with Windows 7.  I called BS on him told him that Adobe site said it was compatible and he told me I had a Trojan on my system and he would refund my money for Elements 13 and sell me version 12, which would be compatible, along with a better security system than the Norton 360 I told him I had.  At that point I immediately terminated our communications and called Norton to have additional checks performed to ensure no additions were added to my system.  They had me download and run Power Eraser from them and it found nothing wrong. 
    I also temporarily turned off the firewall and tried to use the Elements 13 but had no success.
    I also went to Microsoft Windows site and searched for the Exception code: 0xc0000005 that was displayed in the event viewer and they indicated there was a hotfix available and they would email me that fix.  ave not received the email yet.
    I’m getting very frustrated but thank you for your help.  I will update you with and additional results or actions I get or perform.

    Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
    Do a backup,  preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors.  Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

  • Any chance to have a working system with Premier Elements?

    I've tried a good number of different video editors for HD video editing and they all lack certain features here and there that I find necessary for myself. I don't want anything out of this world, just a good, solid performance combined, ease of use, easy video clip import, good image quality from rendering and - that's it. Nothing special. No fireworks, do dancing girls...  Now, out of all the programs Premier Elements seemed to be very good, BUT it lacked the stability. Big time... Once I was working with that, the program just kept on crashing. Even if it would crash only once every 30 minutes, I could have taken that, but no... Had to be every second minute...
    But, that was still with Windows Vista, and I blame Vista for much of the problems. I've upgraded - with blood, toil, sweat and tears, to Windows 7, which already has proven to be much, much more stable than Vista. So, the question is that do I have a chance to have a working solution with Premier Elements and Windows 7, running with multicore processor and 8 Gb of memory and soon with dedicated HD's for operating system and program files, video files and intermediate working storage? Will my dream ever come true?

    Welcome to the forum.
    It is possible, as many here report great success running PrE 8 on many different systems. Probably the biggest consideration is the optimization of one's hardware and their OS. This ARTICLE will offer a few tips on the software end of things, and for Win7, be sure to look down the thread and see Black Viper's optimization page.

  • AVHCD my HD experience so far with Premier Elements 7

    Hi
    I thought I would try and contribute to the ongoing discussion about HD video, and in particular the use of AVHCD media with Premiere Elements 7. I
    wandered into this arena rather than planning my way in but luckily I am having a good time. I hope my experiences may be useful to others here.
    My aim is to shoot and edit video at the best quality possible but remaining comfortably within the current capability of my PC and its
    operating system.
    I am no editing expert by any means but I have been editing my home movies for several years using various bits of software and operating systems
    along the way.
    I am brand new to the world of High Definition and I currently intend to playback my movies on a Sony PS3 and a high definition tv. I archive my
    finished movies on hard disk rather than burn to DVD. I dont yet have a blueray burner.
    My current equipment.
    ================
    Camera
    ======
    My camera is the Sony AVCHD HDR-TG7VE. It has 4 HD recording modes.
    HD FH = 1920 x 1080/50i 16M
    HD HQ = 1440 x 1080/50i 9M
    HD SP = 1440 x 1080/50i 7M
    HD LP = 1440 x 1080/50i 5M
    For further details see here
    http://www.sony.co.uk/product/cam-high-definition-on-memory-stick/hdr-tg7ve
    Computer
    ========
    My editing system consists of the following;
    Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz
    4 GB RAM
    3 SATA Hard drives, for for system files, 2 WD caviar black drives for editing.
    Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 32bit version.
    Premier Elements 7 full version.
    Windows System Assessment
    CPU Score 5.60 (Calculations per second)
    Memory Score 5.90 (Memory operations per second)
    Graphics Score 5.90 (Desktop performance for Windows Aero)
    D3D Score 5.90 (3D business and gaming graphics performance)
    Disk Score 5.70 (Disk data transfer rate)
    Windows Experience Index 5.60 (Base score)
    Current workflow
    ================
    I have only been experimenting for a couple of days but this is my current
    workflow.
    I shoot my video in HD HQ.
    I use the supplied Sony software to get the files into my PC
    I convert those files into MPEG2HD using Free AVCHD Converter V1.0 as recommended on this site.
    I leave the output format as standard except I raise the Video bitrate to 2500 Kbps as recommended in other posts on here.
    I use the HDV 720p 25 preset for my project
    I output as a PC file, MPEG HD720p
    Using these settings I have a pleasant editing experience and the finished product is certainly much better than using standard definition. When I add my clips to the timeline I don't get the red bar across the top of them unless I add an effect. This saves rendering time and provides for smooth playback within Premiere Elements 7 as I check my edits.
    Now, I have no idea if what I am doing is correct and I would dearly love to hear suggestions for how I can improve things further. The good news for me however is that I can use my new camera without having to upgrade my PC.
    Regards
    Ken

    Ken,
    Welcome to the forum, and thank you for taking the time to post your workflow.
    While the CPU could be beefier, it's comforting to see that your I/O sub-system (your HDD's) are set up better than 99% of the people out there, for editing. Way to go! BTW, if your CPU is doing it for you, I'd not worry about it, until you build your next machine. You are getting more out of yours, than many with Quad-core chips, and some with dual-Quads. That is a testament to a strong machine and a clean one too.
    With your sucess, I feel that your workflow might well be a useful baseline for others.
    Thanks for posting,
    Hunt

  • Problems with Premier Elements 7 Opening Earlier Projects

    I have used Premier Elements 3 to create many 15-60 minute videos, most built from Photoshop Elements slide shows imported into Premier, and most with DVD output designed. After installing Version 7, I attempted to open these projects which it is supposed to do. A minority will open fine. The balance either cause the error "The project cannot be loaded - it may be damaged or contain outdated elements".
    Does anyone else have these types of problems? I have tried all of the various methods outlined in the KB, like deleting preferences, etc., removing and re-installing, booting with nothing else loaded, etc. Nothing has any impact. I have talked to Adobe support and they are clueless and just walk me through the usual install/uninstall, etc. can anyone help? I have an enormous investment in time in these 3.0 videos and I bought Version 7 to upgrade and now it does not work! Thanks.

    Just a thought....
    How are you opening the Premiere Elements 3 project in Premiere Elements 7?
    According to the Adobe party line Premiere Elements 7 PDF, you can open projects created in earlier versions of Premiere Elements in Premiere Elements 7, but you cannot open projects created in Premiere Elements 7 in earlier versions.
    Do you have Premiere Elements 3 and 7 on the same computer at this time?
    The Adobe suggestions is, if problems in this regard and instead of right clicking the project file in its saved location, then:
    1. open the project from with Premiere Elements 7
    or
    2. right click the project file in its saved location and name Premiere Elements 7 as the Open With program
    Check it out to see if I have interpreted this info correctly

  • I have Acrobat Standard 9 that came with Premier Element

    I have Acrobat Standard 9 that came with the Premier Elements and Photo Suite 9 when I purchased my machine and now when I open the program it says I don't access and that the license stopped working.

  • PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 Sound Card Compatibility

    Specs say need a Direct X 9 or 10 sound card or one that is compatible.  Is DTS sound+ card compatible?  Found a Windows laptop on a Black Friday special that meets all the other requirements but can't find an answer about the sound card.  Hope someone has a quick answer since the sale on the laptop ends tomorrow.  Thanks.
    And now I know thre answer to my question.  After almost an hour on the phone with HP, I know that the sound cards are compatible--the tech that helped was really great and ended up running around their call site to check with other tech reps to find the answer.  Apparently not a very common question, since before I submitted my question here, I had talked with Best Buy and the tech I spoke with there didn't have the answer.
    Thanks to all who stopped to look at my question.
