Thanks for the reply.
Some general comments...
Regarding:
THERE ANY WAY I CAN PUT MULTIPLE RANDUM TRANSITIONS IN TO THE TIME LINE WITH JUST ONE CLICK ? .
There is no transition choice for random transitions across the Premiere Elements 12 workspace Timeline. But, the Elements Organizer 12/Create Menu/Slideshow and its Slideshow Editor does have that random transition choice. So, one possibilitity would be to create your slideshow in Elements Organizer 12 Slideshow Editor and then move the slideshow into Premiere Elements with the Output of Edit with Premiere Elements Editor command.
Pending more details of the slideshow you are creating, I think that you would get your best photo quality and overall results staying with Premiere Elements 12 workspace (1080p) project and the transitions randomized manually.
perhaps applying the default to all (all at the same time),
using Timeline Menu/Apply Default Transition,
and then replacing transitions randomly for the random transition look).
Please let us know if any of that worked for you.
Thanks.

Every time I try to upload MOV files from my iphone 5s onto my adobe premiere elements on windows 8 i get 'the importer reported a generic error'

What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Windows 8.1 64 bit? For now I will assume Premiere Elements 12 in a NTSC set up.
Your iPhone 5s video is expected to be 1080p @ 30 progressive frames per second? Do you confirm that? Because of the source of your video, it is highly likely that you are dealing with a variable frame rate.
Please give the following a try to see if you then have an "importable" product to take into Premiere Elements presumed 12/12.1.
Download and install the free HandBrake program.
http://handbrake.fr/
Import your video file into the program.
Make sure you browse to and set Destination (suggested Desktop location)
Go to the Video Tab and set
Video codec = H.264 (x264)
Frame Rate = 29.97
put a dot next to Constant for the Frame Rate
Click on the Start at the top left of the workspace
Wait for the "Queue Finished" to appear in the progress bar at the bottom left of the workspace.
Then see if this H.264.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 progressive frames per second file can be imported into Premiere Elements 12 project with a manually set project preset of NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DLSR 1080p30@ 29.97.
Details for setting manual project preset can be found in

The details that I have posted in this reply are customized for Premiere Elements and should work fine for you.
We will be watching for your results.

Trying to relink video clips and getting "import reporting a generic error" using Premiere Pro CC 2014 on a Mac

Moving a project over to another computer and I was trying to relink video clips and getting "import reporting a generic error" message.

Did you find a solution? I'm having this same problem.

Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 (presumed 64 bit).....
1. Music files and error message...are these music files from iTunes? If so, convert them to .wav in iTunes to convert them to wav version, and then import the .wav version into Premiere Elements 13 project using Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace's Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets from where you drag the wav version to the Soundtrack.
The following are the instructions for the iTunes converting
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1550
If any problems with the instructions, please let me know, and I will go through them with you.
2. How you set up the project and the export settings that you select greatly influence your end product result.
a. What are the properties of the source media?
b. What project preset did you (manually) or the project (automatically) set to match the properties of the source media.
(If you do not know, please tell us what you see for the readings of Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, Pixel Aspect Ratio - even
if the fields look grayed out.)
c. For your export...Publish+Share/Computer/and then what? And what preset? Did you use the default settings of the preset or did you
customize the export settings of the preset under the preset's Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thanks.

"Importer reported a generic error" message while importing ProRes 422 clip

Hi all. I am getting an "Importer reported a generic error" message when I try to import a ProRes 422, linear PCM clip into Premiere Pro CS6. I have imported other ProRes 422 clips in previous projects without a problem, although those clips did not have the linear PCM codec included. I have tried to solve the problem using advice on other forum threads. Changing the file name did not work. Removing underscores in the file name did not work either. Copying the file and pasting to a different folder before re-importing did not work either. The file DOES open in AE, but I am getting the error message without fail when I try to import into Premiere. Any thoughts on how to remedy the situation? FYI - I am still running version 6.0.0 of Premiere. Thanks for your help!

Try going to Help | Deactivate in Pr. Close Pr. Reboot. Launch Pr and activate if requested. That procedure has helped some users restore missing codecs and presets, maybe it'll help your Dynamic Link.

Dynamic Link/ Replace with After Effects Composition between Premiere Pro CC to After Effects CC won't work. Says "importer reported a generic error"

Trying to use the "Replace with After Effects Composition" to use Warp Stabilizer on a clip and transfer it back into Premiere Pro CC. The action is not "grayed out" it allows me to click it and it opens up After Effects, then asks to open a new composition, but it doesn't open up the clip for me to work on it.
Also is the Dynamic Link and Replace with After Effects Composition the same thing?
Ive watched several tutorials and read threads but I still don't understand who to fix my problem.
I have both CC versions of PP and AE, if that makes any difference.

You have not provided any system information, no details about your sequence settings, your footage and whatnot. Nobody can even guess what may be going on.

Premiere reporting a generic error at AE clip replace

Hi guys
I am currently work a project with a lot of greenscreen work.
I do all my keying in AE with keylight and mattes.
The editing is done in premiere with my "raw" footage from Sony NEX VG20 cameras as a kind of proxy footage (MTS files).
When the edit and keying is done, I right click the footage in the project field, and select replace footage. I now select the AE file containing the keying settings.
This is where the problem occurs. normally a get a dialogue box asking what comp i want to use, but now I just get the "The importer reported a generic error" error message.
What can I do, it was working before, and now suddenly it won’t work at all, not even in a new Premiere file importing a AE with just a comp.
Any ideas?

Hi Jim
Thanks for the answer.
If I replace the clips in the sequence/timeline with "Replace clip with..." it starts from frame 0 in every clip, and ignores my editing.
Can I replace a clip in the bin with another "clip/comp" from the same project/bin.?
The "Replace clip with..." is grayed out, and if I select "replace clip" I need to select a file?

I tried using the Guest Account on my Mac. In the Guest Account, Illustrator works perfect!
Then I started wondering what processes (tools/tweaks) I run by default on my account. Turned out the problem was called by a little background tool called RightZoom. RightZoom let's the green 'zoom' button always maximize your current window.
So thanks! Problem solved!

How do i put Video clips into Imovie, Without Iphoto?

Im using Imovie for a school project, and i need to put video clips into it. But for some reason my mac doesnt have Iphoto, and i've read online that the only way to do this, is through Iphoto??? Does anybody know otherwise?? please help!!

If you have a supported camcorder or camera you should be able to import your video directly to imovie from the camera. If the video is already on you computer, select the imovie File menu, then select import to library and navigate to the movie files you want to import. The article below should help you

I put video clips together and added music off of iTunes but it will not attach when I put it on youtube or vimeo. what is wrong. It plays as I made it on iMovie

I put video clips together and added music off of iTunes
but it will not attach when I put it on youtube or vimeo.
what is wrong. It plays as I made it on iMovie

Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
Thanks to all.

Warning to iPhone users. Do not start the update of the iPhone software using iTunes.
Nonsense, and very misleading advice. I've updated iPhone 3G, 3Gs,and 4 through itunes many times, never had a problem once, not with one single update in nearly 5 years of iPhones. Of course, I've never jailbroken my phones either. Hack your phone and have update problems? I've got news for you, the problems are not a result of iTunes or Apple's updates.

Dude you have a jailbroken phone as stated in your first post, no need to do a second post.
As per the forum term of service you can't get help here. Use google.
that's the downfall of jailbreaking your phone.

I would restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod on your computer and start over. It appears the iPod is associated with another account. Any media that came with the iPod does not belong to you and di not transfer with the iPod hardware.
