Why can't I duplicate a project?

I have been duplicating projects in the past. This morning that, and many other options under file are grteyed out. All the drives are connected and I can access all my eventys. I can export the projects, edit them, etc, but not duplicate them. I figure I have clicked on something without knowing it.
Thanks

I found my mistake. I was looking in the wrong place,,,,,,

Why can't I open my project in Prem. Elements 10?

Why can't I open any project in Prem. Elements 10? Message says Windows must close the program because of "a problem," and will notify if a solution can be identified. I reinstalled the Premiere Elements 10 portion of the (bundled) program but never installed Photoshop Elements 10, and am currently continuing to run PS Elements 8. This has worked in the past, so I don't understand what the problem is. I am running Windows 7, 64-bit. Thanks!

Am I correct in reading that you have never been able to open your Premiere Elements 10 running on Windows 7 64 bit? If so, we can rule out problems with the source media and damaged projects and concentrate on the installation and system requirements.
You write that you have attempted uninstall reinstall of Premiere Elements 10. Is that correct?.
Adobe also has a Tech Note directed at troubleshooting Premiere Elements installation issues, including how to install if your installation disc might be damaged.

It would be interesting to see how Photoshop Elements 10 installs from this same installation disc on this same Windows 7 64 bit.
We will be watching for your progress.
Thanks.

Your project is already saved in an iMovie Library on your hard drive. Re-installing iMovie will not affect your project or event files.
To reinstall iMovie, just drag the iMovie application from the Applications folder to the trash.
Reboot your Mac.
Go to the Mac App Store and look under Purchases for iMovie and click Install.
You cannot edit your iMovie 10 project in iMovie 9.
iMovie 10 is so stripped down that one really needs to either go back to 9 or, if they can afford it, move up to Final Cut Pro X. If you're strapped for cash at the moment, you can download a trial version of the new Final Cut Pro X 10.1 and get 30 days of free usage out of it, even if you've already been using a free trial of 10.0.9.

Hi
There is a limiting factor that's easy to miss.
• FREE SPACE on Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk
When this goes low then iMovie, Mac OS and all applications runs into problems. So to get a safe way to work (for me) I set a minimum that I try to never go lower than. (Sorry for strange sentence)
I never let my Mac (Macintosh HD) go lower than 25GB free space. If it does - then I move away things to an external hard disk (always Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted - as nothing else will do for VIDEO)
Else - in iDVD Time is the limiting factor. (iMovie - I never run into any - my monster Vacation epos is >>6 hours)
iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
• Professional Quality
(movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
• Best Performances
(movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
• High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
(movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.

In iMovie 10.0.2 Why can't I find iMovie projects or events to transfer to external harddrive?

I am trying to backup my iMovie Projects and all of the media for a number of events. I have been having trouble with iMovie 10.0.2, but it could also be my computer. I am running a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro with Maverick. I have a MacMini that I would like to transfer things over to. aybe I just can't process and that is why I am having so many issues with iMovie. Regardless, I cannot find my iMovie Projects or Events in the finder and cannot seem to figure out a way to find transfer them. They seem to have been lumped into a new library (similar to iPhoto) and I cannot for the life of me figure it out. Any ideas?

Yeah, since they switched to using the iLibrary format I didn't recognize things. I figured it out and was able to transfer things. Funny enough, I was trying to solve for the problem described in the other thread.
Sadly, trying a different comp (my MacMini) I was not able to make those darned clips work. They just seem doomed. Thanks for all the help though! I shall now give you more points!

Why can't I make a project progressive?

When I open a new project in Encore, I want to set it to progressive. But no matter what I try, the Video Transcoding settings are greyed out and I can't change it from Lower Fields First. This has left me with jumpy videos, and I have no idea how to correct it. I've tried googling for solutions but this doesn't seem to be a widespread issue, so I'm guessing I've missed something. Can anybody help? Any advice would be appreciated.

Export from Premiere with the desired settings for mpeg2-dvd.
Import the two files into Encore.
Encore will be set to Don't Transcode for the files.
Make menu and burn.
That should do the trick.

Why can't my existing iMovie project open in iMovie?

I am working on a Macbook OS X (10.6.1) in iMovie 9. I have worked on a project for hours and I read that iMovie auto saves your project when you quit iMovie, so I quit iMovie thinking that there would be no problem opening this project later on.
When I went to open the project, iMovie comes up blank with no contents, no videos etc. I see the saved project in my iMovie folders - but I've tried a dozen different things to try and get my project to open. I've tried importing my project in iMovie, I've tried just clicking on the project to open, I've tried googling information on security/permission terms. I've unlocked the permissions option to "write and read" in the "Get Info". Nothing seems to work.
Can someone please help me out on this one?

To jezz, Doug and Brian,
If you have not already tried this, trash iMovie's preference file. It's in your user (Home) folder Library>Preferences and is named "com.apple.iMovie8.plist". Close iMovie before trashing the file. When next opened iMovie will create a new file with the default settings. You can change the settings if desired - in iMovie go to the menu item iMovie>Preferences and make any changes under each of the 4 tabs.
The preference file can become corrupted at times - the main culprit being iMovie quitting unexpectedly or crashing, causing iMovie to behave abnormally. When problems arise with iMovie, the first troubleshooting tip is to trash the preference file. This doesn't always fix the problem, but is worth trying.

Why can't I open my projects in iMovie 11?

After importing a video on imovie (11), when I pressed play it wouldn't show anything but there would be sound. I went back to my projects and it wouldn't let me click on any of them to edit, except from the empty ones. How do I fix this problem?

Hi
My guess is
• corrupted iMovie preference file - trash it when iMovie is not running
• use of strange video formats (codecs) or photo file formats or audio file formats - use what iMovie can use.

Why can't I open Garageband projects?

Ever since getting my new Macbook Pro, I've had problems opening Garageband projects. I don't know if this is a permissions issue, something funky with the account that I migrated from my old Macbook or what. I can't even create a new project without getting the error message "The file couldn't be opened."

Okay, I fumbled around and fixed it. I had previously gone into system preferences/ file sharing and changed all user accounts to everyone read and write. That didn't help. I just went in to the hard drive and right clicked my user folder, clicked get info and changed the setting to everyone read and write. Then I went into applications directly on the hard drive, clicked on GarageBand and did the same thing. Now my projects are opening. I'm not sure which one fixed it but it's working. I hope this helps anyone else having this problem.

Why can't I open Premiere projects with Premiere?

For some reason .prproj files were defaulted to opening with adobe acrobat. I've tried to the change the default application but none of the options are Premiere, programs like utorrent, photoshop, and dreamweaver show up but not premiere. When I click browse and choose the Premiere executable file from the premiere folder in program files nothing changes, it still opens with one of the default programs.
Can I change this? It's not a huge problem because I can open premiere and then browse to the project but it's pretty annoying and it would be convinient if I could just double click the project file and open it.
Thanks - Jason

That is an operating system function... If you are on Windows, search http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US for help with file assocation

Why can't I prepare the project for publishing?

Hi everyone!!
I have got a problem: I can't prepare any of my projects to publish it. I have got an error 108. Can anyone help me?

Do you have any other devices connected? External drive?
"This problem may be do because of no more memory left to write. Imovie takes up
a lot of memory. I suggest turning your macbook pro completely off, wait 3 seconds and boot up again."

Why can I not see my projects in time machine

I have lost a project book and so I went into my time machine to find that projects wasn't there.
What do I need to do to either find my project or for this not to happen again.
Thanks

Not sure how you're looking, but Pondini's instructions are pretty clear;
http://pondini.org/TM/15.html
Basically, open a Finder window, navigate to where the file should have been,
Then Enter Time Machine from the menu bar icon drop-down.
Step back through the Timeline until the file you want is found,
Select it and click the Restore button.

Why can't I share a project?

Having worked on a project for a couple of hours I come to finalise, then problems start.
In the revised iMovies you hit the share button, but nothing happens!! I have tried shutting down etc but no joy. iMovie 10.0.1 is a nightmare to use!
Has anyone got any suggestions (other than scrapping 10.0.1)?

HWat version are you using? You might need to update it.
