Video playback slacks, why can't i fix this?

Premiere CS6 pro, once a video is in it and pressed play it plays for about 2 seconds and then just lags out while the audio will still play fine the whole way through. I downloaded quicktime player, no hope, i upgraded to quicktime player pro, still nothing.
Here's my specs of my laptop
HP notebook G56 6.1.7600 build 7600
My harddrive has 158GB free of 281GB
AMD V140 processor, 2300 Mhz 1core(s), 1 logical processor.
Graphics card, ATI mobility radeon HD 4200 series
I've changed all graphics settings all the way to lower quality, better performance still no help.
My memory on preferences says i have 2.7GB of installed ram, it won't let me remove any more than the 0.8GB of ram reserved for other applications leaving only 2GB for premiere pro, now is there a fix for this before i go out and waste money i don't have on more ram?
I also updated the adobe programs i have with absolutely no success?
Any help will be much appreciated

MasterGall,
The specs say you should have a more powerful multi-core CPU, and more RAM.
You only have a single core for processing, while an Intel Core2 Duo or AMD Phenom® II processor, or better, is recommended at the minimum.
4GB of RAM is recommended at the minimum, and you have only 2GB.
I would first suspect that your underpowered computer system is at the heart of your issues. Without enough RAM, you're starving your processing power. If you don't meet even the basic system requirements for your computer, I would not expect Premiere Pro to behave normally for video editing. It's great that it works with other video duties, like playing back online videos and game playing. Video editing is definitely more demanding than these other things.
Other people might have a different problem related to Mercury Playback Engine issues, but yours appears to be hardware related.
This all being said, you do seem to meet the minimum system requirements for Premiere Elements. Here are the specs for that: http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere-elements/tech-specs.html

  • Two Apple IDs Why can't you fix this?

    Why can't you fix the problem for those of us who ended up with multiple Apple IDs and permit us to merge just once? I understand that IDs are tied to software updates but surely you chave the capability tod o this?

    These are user-to-user forums, they are not monitored by Apple (there are too many forums/threads/messages for that to happen). It is not currently possible to merge, or transfer content between, iTunes accounts -  if you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

  • CC Bridge encountered a problem, why can't i fix this?

    Opening bridge brings up
    Trying to purge the cache in preferences makes Bridge lock up, it shows "Building criteria..", is totaly unresponsive to any klick commands, and can only be shut down in Task Manager.
    Ever time I open bridge, it opens the last folder I encountered the problem with, and I have not found a way to fix this yet.
    I can't get into the application folder where the cache resides, because Windows 7 has a default tendency to lock you out of certen places in the operating system.
    Please has anyone an answer on how to fix this.
    Thanks,
    Oskar F. Neuhold

    I am just grasping for straws, to get to the bottom of this. Right now CC Bridge is useless, because I never know when cache can't be accessed and freezes the whole operation.
    For NIK try both these links if you have not already done so and be sure to have the latest versions installed:

    As for Cache, if you double check you have deleted the cache file manually and followed other remarks Curt made you should be able to run a Bridge CC with a clean cache file. Also double check for hidden cache files in your folders (menu view / show hidden files) and look for Bridge CacheT files. They can be conflicting and are the result of the setting to write cache to folders when possible. A setting that did more harm then providing productivity to my opinion...

  • Plugin-container 1.9.2.3989 fails, freezes up continuously and crashes on my computer. you install new ones but non seem to fix the trouble. why can't you fix this issue?

    The other error message I get every day is that a script isn't working, and do I want to stop the script? Is this my computer or your program causing the issues?

    Thanks a million for your input. I really appreciate it. I found the fix though in the troubleshooting section in the book I purchased from Dr. Smoke from the Forums. It's his X Lab for Tiger book. Dr. Smoke is THE BOMB! :~D I have to thank him again for his guru abilities!
    There was a plugin that was afoul. The Xerox Accounting plugin was causing my print option not to respond along with the other buttons in the print window. I removed it from the plugin folder and now I can print. I'm glad that's all it was.
    Thanks again!

    why is itunes so hard to use - and why can't apple fix it
    I dont know anybody who likes the way itunes works.'
    This last version is beyond awful. It took an already hard to use program - but one that I had at least figured out and made it even harder.

    Wendy,
    If you are experiencing a particular problem, please post specifics, and most likely someone here will be able to help.

    Well, there is no one from Apple here, but you can take a look at Apple's support document for that error. iOS: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting to a Windows PC

  • Error message after upgrade to iTunes 11: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."  At this point my PC running XP loses all audio.

    Several attempts to upgrade to iTunes 11 have failed.  After an upgrade to 11 the error message reads: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."  At this point--after the upgrade to iTunes 11--my PC running Windows XP loses audio playback for all functions--in iTunes, in the browser and the volume icon disappears from the System Tray.  Only by removing iTunes 11, and then using System Restore to turn back the OS settings can I return the PC to normal functioning.
    I did that.  I reinstalled iTunes 10.5.  Everything seemed fine, but when I try to plug in and copy a CD to my iPhone 4S an error message reads roughly: 'iPhone 4S requires iTunes 10.5 or higher to work.'
    What might be the problem with my audio configuration?
    Why doesn't my iPhone 4S work with iTunes 10.5?  It used to work with iTunes 10.5.
    Please advise.

  • When I Share my project using QuickTime the top of my video is chopped off, how do i fix this?

    when I Share my project using QuickTime the top of my video is chopped off, how do i fix this?

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system is it running?
    - Mac OSX; Premier Elements 11 v11
    Where is the audio in the project - numbered audio tracks, Narration Track, and/or Soundtrack? Any chance that you are using a XviD.avi file?
    - audio is either in the soundtrack , or in audio 2 when part of a video
    Besides the full properties of your source file including file extension, what are the full export settings that you are using presumably for Publish+Share/Computer/MPEG?
    - i was just using the default for MPEG, which is the NTSC DVD standard, file type MPEG2-DVD
    What player are you using? Does the file playback video and audio using the VLC player? Does the problem exist in a new project?
    - i have tried in quicktime and VLC, both have the same effect (picture works, staccato background noise).  I have not tried in another file, but will do so now.

  • When I attach a JPG file in my email and send it to a Windows friend they get the message "The file type being saved or retrieved has been blocked when they try to open it." Anyone know why and how to fix this problem?

    Your Windows friend should ask in a Windows forum why his email client won't open attached jpg files. We have no idea what email client he is using or how his Windows security is configured.

    I just installed Photoshop elements 11. Install of the application was fine. When I clicked to open Organizer, I received a messaging indicating that it was out of date and coudl not be upgraded. How can I address/fix this?

    Thank you for the replies. I'm afraid neither one helped.
    kglad, I never get to any error code so your link can't help.
    Jeff, I looked at your link and
    a) again, I never make it to an error code
    b) I'm definitely connected to the internet
    c) I can access secure sites; I tried connecting with the firewall disabled and the same thing happened, so I don't believe it's a firewall issue.
    d) I don't understand the checking host sites - this is far too complicated for a novice user. It should not be this difficult to get a software running. I don't want to mess with these kinds of settings.
    e) I followed the steps for the global sign in root CA and my screen looks the same as the picture here.
    I can't activate the software offline as there is no option to generate a response code when I click on having trouble connecting to the internet. All I get is a prompt to change my password.
    If the problem were simply connectivity from my computer, then why does the box completely freeze? Can't cancel, can't click on the little X to close it, can't right click on the box to close it. I have to reboot every single time. I know others have had the same problem and I haven't found any answers that I could apply.
    I don't understand for the life of me why Adobe does not have TELEPHONE customer support. I have spent 2 days on this, this is crazy.

  • My iphone 5S will send texts as imessage but frequently switches to regular (green) messages even for people that I know use imessage - since we have exchanged (blue) messages previously. Is there something I can do to fix this or is it a unit problem?

    Please help.

    You can try to log out of iMessage and then sign back in.  However, even under optimal conditions, iMessage will not always work.  That's why the option of 'Send as SMS' is so important.  There might be temporary outages in the related iMessage servers.
