Reinstall of Premiere Elements 11 Freezes

I had both Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11 working on my Windows 8 machine. I uninstalled Premiere for troubleshooting reasons. I am trying to reinstall from disc. The disc spins a lot, I select the Premiere button and then the installation process freezes. wal1.

Hello ATR,
I checked that the Adobe Premiere Elements was not installed. I verified on the on the uninstall screen in control panel. I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 and 10 installed. When I uninstalled the Adobe Premier Elements 11 I asked it to keep its settings when prompted.
I downloaded the ccleaner. (backing up the registry settings) last night.
This am, I tried to connect to the internet to check email and such. My cisco Linksys E420 wifi router stopped talking to my cable providers Motorola Surfboard modem. Only the top four green lights were on and the yellow blinking PC/activity light failed to light. Cisco AnyConnect says it can't do anything because there is no internet connection. I connected my laptop via Ethernet cable to the cable modem, bypassing the router to get web and email connectivity.
My priority now is to restore function with my wifi service to the household.
The reason that I was troubleshooting and uninstalled the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 was that I have Pixela ImageMixer SE 3 that came bundled with my Canon Vixia HF20 and was trying to restore functionality to the Pixela video library and video editor. I like the way that it renames sequential .mts files to the format (folder=YYYYMMDD and contained within is the YYYYMMDDTTTTSS.mts) format, it makes it easier to find files manually through File Explorer. The Pixela SW was locking up after reinstalling it and gave a window that said updating files then froze. The SW is light and simple and provided an alternative to the heavier Premiere. Pixela Support suggested a SW conflict with another CODEC and suggested uninstalling the Premiere Elements to see if that worked and then reinstalling the Premier Elements from disc. No guarantees that it would work correctly with Windows 8 though. Premiere Elements then failed to reinstall.
I may be on and off the air until the wifi is working properly.
How do I revert to the old registry settings. Or, am I better off trying to get the CiscoConnect going by its smart key or other settings.

Reinstalling a Premiere Elements 10 I have had for several years. However, now S/N is rejected as invalid. This is the first unsuccessful reinstall I have ever had. Ideas? Suggestions?

Premiere Elements freezing and closing after adding a Menu.

I have been making movies with Premiere Elements for awhile now. Ever since I started, I have had the same problem. It would hang, and eventually close on me. I then got the new version, PE8 a while back. Unfortunately, I still had the same problem.
I made an entire video having trouble with the freezing problem. But I put up with it and saved every few minutes. Now I get to the end and made the Menu pages. When I almost finished it, it closes on me. I keep trying to go back into it, with absolutely NO success! I have been dealing with this for a long time, so I am well aware of needing to turning off the internet and virus software with the realtime scanning. I also have been manually closing everything I can in my startup menu.
Every so often I restart to see if that helps, but no help. So, I have been looking at the conversations here for a while recently and have tried what I think is everything. I made sure I had the updated version of Elements 8. I updated everything, all the important and optional updates. Made sure my graphics card was up to date. I don't use QuickTime, but I updated it anyway. I ran Disc Cleanup and Defrag. I did the MsConfig disabling bonjour, apple mobile, ITunes, Reader. I had it boot without GUI. I even disabled the Windows Indexing feature.
Even after all that, every time I open PE8, I gives me the warning message that it is running low on memory! I don't know what else to do. Please help.
Now I know you all want to know what the details of my system are, so here it is.

After un-installing the corrupt Adobe Premiere Elements 10 I was trying to install it again from the disks (starting with disc #3) and typing correct serial number installation started but ejected the disk with few prompted messages (Exit Code 7). What can I do to complete this installation? Can you help me? The version 10 was sufficient for the work I am using it for. SOS

How can I reinstall Adobe Premiere Elements 12 after computer crash without my old keys?

I need to re-install Elements 12, but I can't find my product key.

My World
You should have two choices for obtaining working installation files....
1. If you purchased the installation files from Adobe....go to the Adobe web site, sign in with your Adobe ID and Password, go to the Search field at the top right of that web page and type in My Orders. Then follow the My Orders to your orders and select the order involved. There should be a place there to download new installation files.
2. You can go to the following web site and download and install Premiere Elements 12 tryout. During the installation of those files, you insert your purchased serial number to make this your working copy of the program.
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
The important matter with this route is read and carry out carefully the web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" and the "here" button in the instructions so that you do not get Access Denied.
Please let us know if any of the above works for you.
Thanks.

Premiere Element Freezes When Tried to Burn DVD

My computer meets and exceeds the requirements for Premiere Element 4. It also has about 50 GB of free disk space. I put together a file (about 30 minutes) consisting of stills and video clips, sound tracks, effects, and transition. When I tried to burn a DVD the first time, the program froze at the first instance of "burn" after completion of encoding and compiling. I removed Premiere Element and then reloaded it. I was able to burn a DVD. When I tried to burn again after making a minor change (to some text on still images), I then experienced the same problem even though with the same remove/reload routine.
From your website, I tried to sort out if the problem was due to my project or my computer system. I could create a DVD folder of a simple file but not a folder for my project. So it seemed that my project file was the problem. I then took the suggested approach, i.e. to make DVD folders of segments of my project and they all worked.
Finally, I was able to export my project to my hard disk as an AVI file and then load the file as a new project. Then burning a DVD was uneventful. The burned DVD showed that the file was about 1.6 GB in length.
Would appreciate your suggestions on how to identify the glitch that prevented me from burning a DVD in the straightforward manner. I might add that I had burned DVDs of projects of almost identical composition and length and had experienced no such problem.

From your description, it sounds like either the photos were larger than 1000x750 pixels in size and/or that you needed to clear your Media Cache (in Premiere Elements Edit/Preferences).

Premiere elements freeze

When I use more then 10 minutes of video (MP4 format, 640*480 60bps),
the software freezes.
My PC configuration seems to meet the requirements,
AMD 64 X2 4200+ 2.21 GHz, internal memory of 2 GB.

Erik

Run Task Manager while editing and watch the total memory. In my experience running PE on XP Pro (32 bit), if the total memory figure gets to about 1.4GB for any reason (and editing lots of MP4s will do it), PE can either crash or freeze or get very flakey. You can even get into a situation where it will let you add clips and then the resulting project will crash PE. If you or PE saved just before it crashed, you may find that you can no longer open the project without PE crashing right away.
I have found that if I have another program open in the background, switching focus to it and then back to PE can often free up memory for a while.
Note that this is independant of the amount of physical RAM you have in the system. A 32 bit OS hands out 4GB of virtual RAM per application and that is split 50/50 between the application and system tasks so PE only gets 2GB to play with, no matter what.
I am experimenting with Windows 7 (64 bit) and things are smoother but near as I can tell, PE runs in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit OS so it can't take advantage of the additional memory space the OS can make available. I think Windows 7 gives it 3GB instead of 2GB though. Too bad, this is the one application I own that could REALLY use more memory (and I thought that a couple GB would be WAY more than I would ever need for any application). Oh, and I'm liking Windows 7.......

Premiere Elements 10 reinstalled in windows 8 the monitor give no picture during editing play of avchd video 1020x1080i 25. Have worked OK before in win 8.

I have reinstalled premiere elements 10 in win 8 and after reinstallation it is not possible to edit the video because the monitor does not show the pictures when I play the video, only sound comes OK. What can I do?

toresak91
Are you saying that all you did was to reinstall Premiere Elements 10 on the same computer? The video card/graphics card was the same before and after the reinstall? There is a serious Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue, and I just want to make sure that you are not caught up in that issue. See the fullest details and information on this in the Announcement at the top of this forum.
What worked before the reinstall of Premiere Elements 10
a. Premiere Elements 10 as a whole
or
b. The playback of this specific AVCHD file in Premiere Elements 10?
If you are using this never before used AVCHD file in the reinstalled Premiere Elements 10, there is always that possibility that you are now using AVCHD.avi which is not supported by Premiere Elements. AVCHD video compression is supported but not the specific combo of AVCHD.avi.
Please review, consider, and clarify and then we will customize a troubleshooting to get to the core of the matter.
Thank you.

Premiere Elements 13 won't launch in Windows 8.1 (Click the icon and nothing happens)

I'm running the trial version of Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 64-bit. It's a brand new PC built for video editing. Everything worked perfectly for about a week and all of a sudden I'm unable to start the program. I click the icon and nothing happens. No splash screen, no error code, no spinning circle cursor.
I have the latest video card drivers for my graphics card.
I've tried uninstalling the program, removed every last Adobe file from my PC, uninstalled all instances of Microsoft Visual C++ and reinstalled Adobe Premiere Elements 13. I tried the same with a fresh download of the program. Neither worked.
I've tried installing a couple .dll files based on a similar thread (where a program called iLivid was the issue). I don't have iLivid on this PC and adding the new drivers didn't work.
For the few days that the software was working I loved it and was ready to purchase. Unfortunately I won't be able to buy it until I can get it to launch on my PC. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

My major problem was with the reliability of the uninstall reinstall of Premiere Elements 12 Windows. I did not encounter any issues in this regard with 11. And, I have only looked at the 30 day tryout of 13 from Adobe. My computers are Windows XP 32 bit, Windows 7 64 bit, Windows 8 and later 8.1 64 bit. The following describes what got me through the worse of these hassels.

I am not sure if the above will work for you with 13. But, it would be worthwhile to check them out.
Since you are dealing with current version 13, it might be a good idea to get Adobe via its Adobe Chat involved, with the hope of some remote control of your computer troubleshooting to try to get to the core of the issue. Chat Panels have been hard to come by for some of these issues, but let us try this route.
Please click on the following link
Contact Customer Care
Premiere Elements
Adobe ID and signing in
Adobe ID, sign in, and account help
Chat Panel
If the link does not hold its set, then you will need to navigate to the Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
Depending on the outcome....if you purchased Premiere Elements 13 from Adobe direct within the last 30 days, you can request your
money back from Adobe. If you purchased elsewhere, then you are left to deal with the return policy of the seller.
We will be watching for further developments.

Premiere Elements 9 PC: Major Importer Failure

I think that I have gone down every troubleshooting road on trying to discover why "all of a sudden" Premiere Elements 9 PC will not import anything via Get Media/Files and Folders into its Organize interface as is its default behavior. The program fails at that point and shows the message "the program is not responding". Yet if you force the closure of that particular project and reopen a new one, you find that those media that failed to import into Organize in the first project now are live and well in the Organize of the new project. You can drag them from the Organize to the Timeline and use them in this new project. All other functions of Premiere Elements 9 PC appear unaffected by this import failure. AND, source media can be video (any format and size) and photos (any size). This happens even with import of the first and only file being a jpg (800 x 600 pixels).
My history of Premiere Elements 9 PC/baddrivers.txt file/ and "incompatible driver messages" is well documented in these forums. That involved Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit and a NVIDIA display card. And, I have been moving along successfully with Premiere Elements 9 PC for several months. About two weeks ago, I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit Intel Graphics Card, and Premiere Elements has been performing great until yesterday when what I call "major importer failure" struck. The computer has about 800 GB free hard drive space and about 2.5 GB out of 4.0 GB of available RAM. All of this worked great for about two weeks and now suddenly this yesterday. Did I do anything different or unusual? I think not. I also have Premiere Elements 7 and 8 on this same new computer, and they continue to function perfectly in all respects, whereas Premiere Elements 9 does not. AND, yes I have had the Premiere Elements 9.0.1 Update installed and in use before and after the importer failure.
Troubleshooting has included
a. Uninstall/Reinstall from Premiere Elements 9 installation disc + uninstall/reinstall of QuickTime + Photoshop Elements 9 as well.
b. System Restore (as well as a restore of an earlier version of the installed Premiere Elements 9.
c. Removal of possible interferring program, such as, Nero InCD.
d. Removal of recent Windows Updates
e. Uninstall/reinstall of Intel driver since at one point in the failure the Edit Mode Monitor was displaying part of the Disc Menu Section while the program was in the Organize Mode.
f. Have looked at permissions, running as Administrator, etc.
One of the things that I will try this morning is installing Premiere Elements 9 PC on the previous system Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit to see if there is any major importer failure there at this time.
If anyone has the time, I would appreciate any comments on a troubleshooting avenue that I may have overlooked. This appears to be another Deja Vu all over again. I hope not.
Thanks.

Thank you for your interest in this issue.
I still have not pin pointed why my Premiere Elements 9 works great EXCEPT it will not import media into the Organize with Get Media/Files and Folders and attempts to do that drive the program into unresponsiveness and extreme difficult closure, even with the Task Manager.
Yes, I have already looked at the workaround that you suggested for moving forward in my Premiere Elements 9 PC project, that is, entering all my source media into the Elements Organizer (can do from Photoshop Elements side) so that the source media thumbnail will be in the Premiere Elements Organize "ahead of time", and I will not have to depend upon Get Media/Files and Folders to get that job done.
But, until I hit the key to this, I think I have an almost perfect better way. My computer is now Windows 7 Professional 64 bit that comes with the Windows XP Mode. Essentially what you have in this mode is a virtual Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit machine (best I can determine, Microsoft Generic Card). I can install Premiere Elements 9 (same serial number as on the Windows 7), and IT WORKS, no problem with the Get Media/Files and Folders. The one glitch in this perfect solution is setting up to burn to DVD. The Windows 7 Windows XP Mode Virtual Machine will not recognize installed internal DVD/CD drives when you go to write a DVD. The explanation is that the optical drive in XP Mode is a virtual device - read only. I have confirmed this. In order to use Premiere Elements 9 PC burn to disc in this Windows XP Mode , my answer here appears to be plugging in an external DVD burner USB and then using the USB Attach of the Windows XP Mode.
When Premiere Elements 9 PC was released, I was forced into much troubleshooting of the display issues which are very widely documented here. But then I was using "a real" Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit" with a NVIDIA card. In the trial version, the BadDrivers.txt and VideoRenderer.dll got me through that episode. For me, the purchased version "essentially" was not afflicted with these same problems, and it has been running great. Now when I go to a new computer system for better performance/greater computer resources (by the way, Intel HD Graphics card), Premiere Elements 9 runs great for two weeks and then this no Get Media/Files and Folders matter sets in accompanied by program going completely knocked out by the event. In all of this, old or new, I have Premiere Elements 7, 8, and 9 installed on the same computer. While Premiere Elements 9 is being hit with these issues, Premiere Elements 7 and 8 are not , same computer environment, same source media, same project preset, et al. For me, the Premiere Elements 9.0.1 has not hit the mark.
I have done extensive troubleshooting of the this current matter, too long and involved to go into now. I am preparing a full detailed description of the issue and the troubleshooting that went into the search for a fix. I will be posting it at the forum that I frequent. When I post it there, I will supply a link to it for whomever is interested. I have filed a bug report with Adobe on this matter in abridged format as per the space provided in its bug report online form.
Thanks again for posting.

Error "Registration information is invalid" when you start Premiere Elements 7 (Windows)

Issue
When you start Adobe Premiere Elements 7 for the first time, Premiere Elements returns the error message "Registration information is invalid. Please reinstall Adobe Premiere Elements."
Solution
Do one of the following solutions:
Solution 1: Install Premiere Elements 7 using the Premiere Elements 7 serial number.
If you purchased Premiere Elements bundled with Photoshop Elements, you may have used the Photoshop Elements serial number included in the pack to install Premiere Elements. Uninstall Premiere Elements and reinstall Premiere Elements using the Premiere Elements serial number.
Note: The Premiere Elements serial number starts with the number set 1143. The Photoshop Elements serial number starts with the number set 1057.
Solution 2: Use a Company Name with 40 single-byte characters or fewer, or 20 double-byte characters or fewer.
When installing Premiere Elements, you are asked to provide a user name, a company name, and a serial number. While the company name field is not a required field for installation, if you choose to enter data, do not enter a name that contains more than 40 single-byte characters or more than 20 double-byte characters.
Note: A single-byte character is any character in the standard ASCII character set. English language characters are all single-byte characters. Double-byte character code uses two bytes to represent one character. The double-byte character set was developed for the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean characters sets. Many extended ASCII characters are also double-byte.
Solution 3: Install Premiere Elements to a location that does not contain extended ASCII characters in the file path.
Do not install Premiere Elements to a location that uses extended ASCII characters in the file path. Extended ASCII characters include characters such as , –, ›, †, ‡, ‘, Ÿ.
Note: The default installation path for Adobe Premiere Elements does not contain extended ASCII characters.

Thanks. I thought of that. But won't I get whammied for registration again? I just registered this at adobe last month after rebuilding a crashed system. In other words, will Adobe know that I've uninstalled it, and therefore have an available license? Thanks for the welcome. I've been a Studio premium user for 3 years, and now that my product is no longer supported....I need support!
Thanks.

Is Adobe Premiere Elements 10 compatible with OS X Yosemite?

I have Adobe Premiere Elements 10 that I use on my IMAC. I recently updated my operating system to OS X Yosemite and when I go to use the add menus portion of the the program it consistently crashes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and it still crashes when trying to add disc menu's to my movie? Is Adobe Premiere Elements 10 not compatible with OS X Yosemite? Do I need to upgrade my version of Adobe Premiere Elements for the program to work? Larry

Lawrence3973
I am strictly an Elements Windows person and do not have a Mac computer to road test this one. I do remember that question being asked before. My recollection is that Premiere Elements 10 is, but it a recollection which I would need to research. Most of the threads with that question can be found unanswered.
Does Premiere Elements 10 run on Yosemite?
Most of the "Elements" discussions with information revolve around Photoshop Elements Mac and Yosemite.
Are you running the program as Administrator and do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? Is it only disc menus that bring the project down? Is it all disc menus or just one or two that are involved in the issue?
But, first I would ask "What video card/graphics card are your computer use?" Therein may be the problem if the card is a NVIDIA GeForce one.
You could try delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file which I believe can be found in Mac
Users/Owner/Libraries/Application Support/Adobe/Premiere Elements/10.0
Please review and consider.
