Time Stretch in Premier Elements 10 prevents moving of clips in Timeline

Time Stretch in Premier Elements 10: after using it the Icon will not go away and I cannot now click-on and slide clips in the timeline. How can this be resolved?.

Before all else, I will ask, have you clicked on the Selection Tool which should be to the left of the Time Stretch Tool that you clicked on?

Time remapping issues Premier Elements 11 windows 7 PC

I submitted some clips into my timeline that are about 2 minutes long. I used the remapping tool and specified that the whole clip be played in 10 seconds. It works. The problem I have now is a grayed out clip that follows the remapped clip and plays as a blacked out screen until the next clip comes into play. I am assuming this is the unused time slot from the remapped clip. I have tried to move my clips in front or behind the grayed out clip, and tried deleting and closing the gap. Nothing is working. How do I resolve this issue?

Premiere Element 12 when moving video clips. HELP me Rhonda!

I am currently running Windows 7 (Professional) and I downloaded Premiere Element 12 off Tech Soup so I could make a short video for my company. I am working on a specific project and I have done a considerable amount of editing already. When I try to renegotiate the positions of various clips- an "error" message appears and then the program shuts down. Is my computer incompatible??? HELP! I don't want to lose all the work I have done. Also, I am so desperate I would be willing to buy the software all over again and put it on my mac-laptop but that would be my last resort! Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Thanks for the reply. Let us see what we can do with what you have.
When I asked about computer resources, I was asking about how much installed and available RAM the computer has, how much free hard drive space, the processor and the clock speed. Most of that you can get by right clicking the word Computer and selecting Properties.
About your alternative plans...
Your Premiere Elements 12 Windows project is not going to work on Premiere Elements Mac (whatever version)
If you export your Premiere Elements 12 project to a .mp4 file (Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD with one of the .mp4 presets), you can import that into a Premiere Elements Mac project. However, that is a whole video which will need trimming to make significant further edits.
No guarantees, but your Premiere Elements 12 Windows project file should open in Premiere Elements 13 Windows. But, work with a copy of the Premiere Elements 12 Windows project as a safety net.
This is what I would like you to do.
Can you open that Premiere Elements 12 Windows project that shutdown when you were moving clips around in the Edit area of the program? If so, open to the Expert workspace. Have you placed audio transitions in the Timeline content? If so, remove them and determine if the problem is gone, is the same, or gets worse.
Also, what specific media were you moving around when the crash took place? If you can open the project, can you delete and re-import the file(s) in question? What Timeline tracks are you using and which were involved in this incident?
I am particularly interested in the answer to the last question to use the answer as a point to start the troubleshooting.
Please let me know if you need clarification on the above.
We will be watching for further developments and will keep close track of your posts.

Premier Element 8 crash when drag clip

I'm able to capture clip from my DV cam but everytime I want to drag
the clip into the timeline... the software just crash & close.
BTW I'm using the trial version.
Pls help me...

Now, when a program crashes, there is often a "breadcrumb trail" left behind. This ARTICLE will give you tips on finding "clues" in those "breadcrumbs." The trick is to follow any/all links in the error and warning messages, at the time of the program crash, in Event Viewer. This can take some time, and many of the trails will end in screens of useless code, that no one can understand.
At the very bottom of that article is "The Case of the Unexplained." It links to a MS video. It's a bit long, but funny and extremely interesting. It offers some great troubleshooting tips, plus points one to the tools. Those are extremely useful. Those are not "Easy Button" fixes, but are very useful.
Good luck,

New to Premiere Elements 9 - adding keywords to clips in timeline?

Hello to hopefully my new best friends
I am editing college football highlights. I have been using iMovie for about 3 years, but it lacks certain features that I was told (still hoping!) Premiere Elements 9 has. Anyway -- I am editing from full game videos from an external hard drive. I have imported an mp4 file (full game), dragged it to the timeline, and edited out the plays that I want to keep, then delete the rest of the footage. So, I have lots of short clips on my timeline. Before I begin the "real editing" or adding the transitions, effects, titles, etc., I would like to be able to "tag" each little clip with a keyword, such as "tackle, sack, interception, etc." - so that I can sort them easily. I see that you can add keyword tags in the "Organizer" - but that adds the tag to the "entire clip" - which in my case is a complete football game; not my edited clips. Is there any way to tag my edited clips in the timeline???
Thank you so much in advance for any help you can provide!
Kim

Kim,
I've not done this in PrE, so someone else will have to tell you where my process goes off, or exactly how to easily do it in PrE. In PrPro, I can do exactly as you have done, then create Sub-Clips from each of those segments in my Timeline. This will then place them into a Bin (like a folder that I create) in my Project Panel. I have the availability to use many different Columns there, and can even create them to suit. I can also order those Columns, so that say "Description" is the first Column visible, after the Clip/Sub-Clip's name. Some of the Columns, like Description, are text boxes, and I can easily fill them in with just the type of annotation, that you describe. When working on Projects, similar to yours, I will move Description to the head of the list, with Video Usage, and then Audio Usage next. Other attribute Columns follow along, and are ordered to my preferences.
Sorry that I am much less familiar with PrE, as most of my Projects there are rather simple. Still, I know that PrE offers one the ability to display several text Columns in Project Panel, so that part should work. I am just unsure of the Sub-Clips, so that you can easily see just what you have Cut.
Good luck, and I am sure that others will be along in a bit, and can point you to an exact workflow, that will get you what you want.
Hunt
BTW - by using single words in Descriptions, I can even Sort by that Column. Not sure where the alpha runs out - first letter of first word, or something else?
PS - Welcome to the forum!

Long delay for playback after moving a clip in timeline in Premiere CS6

Whenever I move a clip in the timeline I have to wait a really long time for the image to show up in the preview monitor after pressing play. Audio starts ok but I see a black screen for a long time (varies from aprox. 2 to 30 seconds).
This is a bit annoying as it disrupts the editing flow and really slows down the workflow.
I'm cutting a Red Epic sequence on an 2011 iMac with 16 gb of ram. I never got this behaviour in CS5.
Any suggestions?

We need to know more to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
Also, to isolate the problem, try using some other media, not the Epic footage.

Keyboard Shortcut for moving a clip in timeline to a higher or lower track?

Hi all,
Sure seems like this should exist but I cannot find it.
I want to be able to select clips in the timeline and click a keyboard shortcut to have the clip jump straight up to the next track above.
Anyone know if this is possible?
I have six hours of edited material and literally thousands of B-camera clips to move.... a keyboard shortcut would really help in this situation.
Thanks,
Matt

In the PDF files of the FCP user manual, and in the Quick Reference (Keyboard Shortcuts) menu item from within FCP.
Option-↑ (that's Option & the Up Arrow) This works provided that there are no clips in the track space directly above the clips that you're looking to move. (if there are clips, it will fail; you'd need to select those clips as well for it to work. That or move those clips first.)< </div>
So, we all have to ask, "Why isn't this in the manuals? And, we might as well ask, how many other undocumented features are there in FCP? "

Moving a clip in timeline without the audio overwrite.

is there a way to move a clip in a busy timeline in a way that the audio will not overwrite another audio.
I'm dragging the video to a clear spot on a higher track but the audio part of the clip remains in the same track (which is occupied by another clip).
thanks
arikw

I found how to do.
you drag the video portion of the clip downward pass the bar separating video and audio track . the video will remain in video track 1 and the audio will move to a different track.

Time stretch has stopped working in Premiere Elements 13.

I've downloaded the latest Adobe updates. I am using a Windows 8 64 bit computer. I have previously (in the last few weeks) used time stretch to speed up and slow down without any problems but now I can't get it to work in any of my projects. All video files shot with an iPod Touch or iPhone. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?

Chris
As a point of reference for your Premiere Elements 13 question, I have a iPod Touch 4th generation (H.264.mov 1280 x 720 @ 24 progressive frames per second), and I have no problems using Time Stretch or Time Remapping in a 13/13.1 project or other versions.
I would invoke the interference of a possible variable frame rate rather than a constant one involved with your particular type of video (from iPod or iPhone) and Time Stretch, but I am not having any problem with my iPod Touch video (with minimal variable frame rate) and Time Stretch in Premiere Elements. If you want to explore that idea further, you could convert your video's variable frame into a constant one using the free HandBrake program. Then import HandBrake's H.264.mp4 export into your Premiere Elements 13/13.1 project and determine if you can then apply Time Stretch to that clip.
Have you applied the Shake Stabilizer to your clip before trying to apply the Time Stretch? For that matter, what effects, if any, have you applied to your video clip before trying to apply Time Stretch to it?
All of the above is based on Time Stretch no working for you in a new project with new source media.

Premier elements 7.0 installs but won't run, please assist

I have tried many times to install Premier Elements 7.0 on my computer. I have a very large hard drive and large ram capacity. It is able to run Premier elements 4.0 very well, with no problems. To try to resolve the problem, I uninstalled all Adobe Premier Elements components, cleaned the registry, removed almost all programs from the hard drive in order to make sure there was ample room. I checked and my resources say I have plenty of capibility to run the program. I checked for viruses.
I am able to install 7.0 and load the program. I am almost able to open a project (I have tried several projects of various sizes) and every time, just as it is completed loading the project, there is an error message and the program shuts down.
The error says there is a problem with module: ad2mpgvdec.dll and then it tries to send a report to windows online. I ran the program compatibility program with no luck. I am out of ideas. I can't understand how the older versions of Elements run just fine but 7.0 will not.
Any thoughts? I would love to use this program for editing a Christmas video for my daughter.
One other thing, the compatibility wizard says that settings for Premier Elements 7.0 are: DisableNXShowUI Not sure what that means and have been unable to google it. Other than that, it gives me no hint as to how to fix the problem.

Are you saying that the program crashes as soon as you try to start a project -- not when you try to import video into it? This is a very important distinction.
You also say you tried to run the program in compatibility mode? Does this mean you're running it on a less-than-preferred operating system?
Meantime, a Google search on that driver turns up some pretty strange things. Lots of references to Torrent downloads and spyware. Have you run a program like Spybot Search & Destroy lately? It might be a good idea.
Otherwise, if all else fails, this might be worth a call to Adobe Tech Support. There's obviously some sort of conflict going on somewhere, and they'll be able to walk you through the necessary troubleshooting.

How to fix if timeline does not come up when Premier Elements 9 is loaded.

When I open my Premier elements 9 it comes up blank no timeline and if I try to open existing files they will not even open up. How can I fix this?

mcarter09
Currently the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum is receiving a lot of threads with this same type of problem with Premiere Elements 9. Sometimes
deleting the settings file resolves the problem, sometimes not. Some of these reports have defied resolution. The following is what I would like you
to explore. Details will be very important as we move forward on this. What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9 running on?
For now, I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit and a NTSC setup.
Important Usual Drill
1. Is this a "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before issue"?
2. Are you working from the 9.0.1 Update?
3. Are you running the computer from a User Account with Administrative Privileges as well as Run As Administration?
4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
5. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus enabled? What is the antivirus program?
Specifics
(A) Go to Computer/Manage/Services and Applications/Services and find FLEXnet Licensing Services and make sure that it is listed as started.
(B) Deletion of the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs File
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
9.0
and in the 9.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then you delete the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path cited.
(C) If that does not work, then uninstall, ccleaner run through (regular clearner and registry cleaner parts), reinstall with antivirus and firewall turned off.
CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
Please review and then let us know the outcome. Based on your reply we will plan the troubleshooting strategy specific to your Premiere Elements issue. Since
Premiere Elements 9 was particular video card issues, we may be asking for more information on the card and driver later. Right now I am letting current events
direct the line of questions.
Thank you.

Shortening the time for a picture in adobe premier elements

I am doing a video in Premier elements 10. The still picture lasts for 5 seconds. I want it to last for 2 seconds. How do I do that?

timburrell
Premiere Elements 10 on what computer operating system?
You should be able to right click the still on the Timeline, select Time Stretch, and then set the 5 (default) to 2 seconds.
From 00;00;05;00
To 00;00;02;00
(hours;minutes;seconds;frames)
You should be able to do this for more than one still at a Time by selecting all the clips to be involved before the Time Stretch duration set.
If you want all your 2 seconds stills for all your still imports then, before import, make sure that Edit Menu/Preferences/General and Still Image Default Duration is set to 60 frames instead of 150 frames (for a 30 frames per second system).
Please let us know if you are OK with the above information. If not, please supply more details or ask for clarification for any area of uncertainty.
Thank you.

Bought Premier Elements 13 yesterday. EVERY time I try to open a set of clips with Editor, I am told I have to sign into my Adobe first. I do this and wait for several minutes for the password dialogue box to open, enter my password. then wait and wait until my pw is recognized. Accept agreement. Agreement screen disappears and I'm back where I started. Try to open video clips with editor again and get the same demand to log in. Please advise asap. thx

am not sure can be used.

Opening premier elements for first time. Been "gathering user info" for 15 minutes...what to do?

Opening premier elements for first time. Been "gathering user info" for 15 minutes...what to do? Previously hit "organize", ran for 25 min till hit 100%, then "had to close"?

Unfortunately, there's not enough info listed to give you an effective answer.
Can you give more detailed system spec's. There are a lot of differences in RAM, & Hard Drive Technologies. Is your 2TB a single hard drive, or multiple drives in RAID? While a single 2TB drive is nice for the storage capacity, they also sacrifice some performance to reach that capacity... What speed is the RAM, & I'm assuming it's properly opperating in Dual Channel mode (watch your POST screen to be sure). Which Core i7 CPU are you running, & what Operating System are you running. Finally, bring up your task manager, & see what processes are using CPU cycles. Also, are you starting up PrE8 through the default shortcut which uses the Welcome screen?
A quick guess is that Auto Analyzer & the Welcome screen are behind your troubles, but can't be sure till more info is available.
There is a current thread about Auto Analyzer, & I've posted a way to bypass the Welcome screen in several threads.
See my post in this thread to bypass the Welcome screen http://forums.adobe.com/thread/516524 (2nd post in thread)

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.
