Why can't we delete clips from previous projects when I start a new project?

We have tried eveything... but there is a red line above the clips and they will not delete or move to the trash or anything. please help.

Thanks for the follow up.
Unfortunately, if you want to see the new project dialog at the start of each new Premiere Elements 11 or 12 project, you are going to have to open a new project and go to File Menu/New/Project each time to get the new project dialog. All this before you import your source media.
I have never seen what you describe
The very first time I used the software, I was presented with the settings box, probably to establish the defaults.
By setting box are you specifically referring to the new project dialog that you worked with in version 9.0/9.0.1?
This automatic setting of the Premiere Elements 11 and 12 project preset based on the first video drag to the Timeline is great in principle; however, it does have its shortcomings. When it is wrong, it does not give you the closest to what you should have. It gives you its default NTSC AVCHD Full 1080i30 or its PAL counterpart. In versions earlier than 11, the default project preset is NTSC DV Standard or its PAL counterpart.
My blog post on the Premiere Elements 11 (also applies to 12) project preset automatic set may be of interest.

There is no workaround that I have found to give Premiere Elements 11 and 12 that earlier than 11 project preset handling.
Please let us know if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thank you.

    why does Terminal pop up each time I start the machine???

    The first thing I would check is your login items.
    System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items
    If it's there, remove it, and you're good to go. If not, post back and we'll dig deeper.

    Why can't I delete Mail from my iPhone? it just allows me to Archive, and where do the archives go?

    You'll have to go to your Settings -> Mail, Contacts, etc -> Email Account -> Advanced -> Deleted Mailbox
    Turn off Archive mode, Turn on Trash
    You can also put the phone in airplane mode to delete them real quick, but that's only a temporary fix.

  • Why can't i delete songs from older i-pod touch, delete feature greyed out and right click or holding control and clicking do not offer delete option

    Why can't i delete songs from older i-pod touch, delete feature greyed out and right click or holding control and clicking do not offer delete option in I-tunes. I've tried using both a Mac Book and PC with newer and older versions of I-tunes.

    It sounds like you are try to delete the songs by connecting the iPod to other than the computer from which the songs were synced. You can only delete songs synced to an an older iPod (pre iOS 5) by connecting the iPod to its syncing computer and unsync them.
    If you want to change syncing computers see:

  • Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

    Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

    What happens when you try to delete them from the iBooks app on your Mac ? If they are downloaded into the app (i.e. they don't have the cloud symbol on them) then you should be able to select them and then press the delete button on your keyboard to delete them.
    In terms of the cloud, you can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show for redownloading, which you can either do via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    Or for the iBooks app you can go into the Store in the app, and on the Featured tab select the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the screen and hide them (hover your mouse pointer on a book and it should get an 'x' on its top left corner, click that to hide the book).

  • Why can't i delete photostream from icloud ??

    I was trying to delete some picture that i don't want to share with anyone so why can't i delete or where it the button say that is should be somewhere say DELETE BUTTON on photostream??
    I did go to icloud and click on advanced to reset my photostream but it keep saying error urgh why am i getting this again and again?? it shouldn't be so difficult just to delete only few pictures but why should i reset whole picture why WHY?? I think you guys struggling since RIP Steven Job passed away and you should be able fix this by now so please please help me on this thank you....

    I didn't say SJ announced the lack of a delete facility.
    I meant the way it works now is the way it worked when it was announced by him back in June because the OP was implying that due to SJ no longer being with us, somehow that had some bearing on there being no delete function, and somehow that must mean Apple are struggling without him.
    Too frequently on these forums lately, people attribute what they see as "bugs", "omissions" or "oversights" as being a result of Steve Jobs no longer being around, when in fact these things were decided long before Steve even stepped down as CEO.
    Photo Stream wasn't developed in-between 5th October and 12th October, so SJ would've known about the lack of a delete function way back in June, and long before that too.

  • Why can't i delete videos from my ipad mini 2?

    Hi,
    I'm running out of space on my iPad mini 2, 32gb, ios8.1.2. I want to delete some videos I shot on holiday last year, so I can make some more this year.
    In the camera roll, I hit select, select the vids to delete, but the trash can icon goes grey (inactive) instead of blue (active). Deleting photographs is not a problem.
    These films are not on my Cloud drive. I copied them onto my laptop - for editing purposes and backup. They are in a sub-folder in Movies, not in iTunes, as far as I can tell.
    This doesn't explain why they are still on my iPad, despite all attempts to delete them!
    Please help -  I dare not shoot more vid until I know I'll be able to get rid of it!
    thanks
    James

    Hi ayliffesmith,
    Is it possible that these videos are being used in an iMovie for iOS project? That would cause it to be impossible to delete them. See this article for how to complete the deletion -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Why can't I delete photos from iPhoto (ios)

    The whole point of the app seems to be to edit and organize photos, so if I've taken the time to hide some number of photos, why can't I then delete these? Instead I have to go to the Photo app and delete them there, which doesnt show me any of the tagging or organizing I spent time on in iphoto... It should at least then show me "hidden" photos in Photo so I can delete them there, or let me delete from iphoto and it just removes it from Photo after, it seems pretty simple.  Why has iphoto (ios) been limited in this way?

    Adunn83 I agree, this needs to addressed by apple in the next update. You should be able to delete photos that are on the iPad camera roll from within iPhoto, end of discussion. 
    This stops the iPad being a pc replacement without this and iPhoto on the iPad was why I bought the largest iPad and not a mac, I'm not impressed and it should be a simple fix.
    Does anyone know how we can let apple know to add this to the next update I tried to look how to email the developer but it just went thought to apple support and wanted to phone me. I just want to let the developers know its something customers want fixing, do the iphoto developers read this forum ?

  • Why can't I delete items from  my iPod (and not from my library)- I tried creating a playlist as manual suggested but this no longer works,  any ideas?

    Previous to latest changes in iTunes I have been able to delete items on my iPod by simply clicking on and deleting when prompted for action by right click.  This has become impossible and even the instructions to creat a playlist by clicking on "add to" no longer work.  I seem to be unable to delete anything unless I delete it from my iTunes library.  Anyone out there know the solution or working on the problem?  Seems to me that if the product wasn't broke Apple should not fix it.....they should stop tinkering with it, please.

    You've posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question isn't related to. You will have better luck posting to the iPod Nano forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/ipod/ipod_nano

  • Why can't I delete photos from my album?

    I created an album today and am trying to sort through it by keyword to check that each photo is labeled correctly. I have been doing this by going to the search box below and choosing one keyword. However, iPhoto will not allow me to delete any photos from this album if I have any keyword selected in that search box. If anything is entered in the search box, and then I select photos and hit "delete", the following photo just gets highlighted, instead of the selected photo being deleted. How can I select all the photos in an album that have a particular keyword, then delete them from the album?
    Also, earlier I clicked a box that said "do not confirm before deleting", when I was deleting several photos from this album. Now I'd like that confirmation box to reappear. How do I get that back?
    Thanks for your help!

    Here's an example :
    - Say I have a group of photos flagged. I navigate to the "flagged" smart album. I then click open the "info" pane on the right. I see that a picture of my husband and son is wrongly keyworded "cousins". I click on the picture, then on the keyword "cousins". I hit delete and tab. "cousins" reappears. I try deleting "cousins" and hitting "tab" instead. The deleted keyword reappears again. I delete it about three more times before "cousins" finally disappears for good. Then I add the keywords "brett" and "noah" and click off the picture. Select the photo again, only see the keyword "brett" - no "noah". Yes, I could hit command-K and open the keyword menu, but that's an extra step that I shouldn't have to take, seeing as keywords are available in the info pane. I simply can't figure out what they are wanting me to do in order just to simply delete a keyword using the "info" pane. Is there a particular keystroke that makes a keyword addition/deletion "stick"? I have tried using tab, return, clicking off the keyword box, and no matter, those stinkers just keep undeleting themselves.
    Another example of incorrectly adding/subtracting keywords:
    - Again, in the "flagged" smart album, let's say I have clicked on the search box, and chosen to search for all photos with the keyword "san francisco". Now I look in those photos for ones of my husband. I highlight only those particular photos (by holding down 'command') and then using the info pane, type in the keyword "brett". Instead of adding "brett" to the selected photos within the keyword "san francisco", "brett" is added to ALL the photos with the "san fran" keyword.
    - Same scenario, only this time I want to delete a keyword from selected photos in the "san fran" group - but it gets deleted from ALL the "san fran" keyworded photos.
    I can get around this problem by adding photos, such as the "san fran" keyworded group, to a regular album, and then adjusting keywords, and the problem doesn't seem to repeat itself. To me this seems like an unnecessary step, but it does work. Anyways, within the flagged album, and I would assume within other smart albums as well (though I haven't tested this theory), I am having trouble with iPhoto adding/subtracting keywords as described above.
    Seriously, thank you again for taking the time to help me out here!
    P.S. I have deleted the preferences file 3-4 times already, and that doesn't seem to have any effect on these particular issues.

  • Why can't I delete music from my iphone using itunes match anymore?

    I thought for sure I used to be able to swipe to delete albums or tracks on my iphone - on my iphone 5 I can no longer do this. I found that if I turn itunes match off, I can delete. But turning itunes match on and off a lot is really a huge issue. It seems every time I do this the iphone loses track of some of the music.
    Why why why can't these problems be fixed?!

    Awful, awful awful.
    Apple ... what were you thinking, and why did you mess up your product so badly?
    Why are you screwing over those who are the most devoted, who paid for an extra?
    Really.  Could this be more frustrating:
    You download a great new album!
    You want to listen to it on your iPhone!
    Oh wait, your iPhone is full.  Over capacity.  AND YOU SPEND AN HOUR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET SONGS OFF YOUR IPHONE, reading every forum and every trick to somehow make the product work the way it should.  Trying to clear some space for that great new album you just got!
    But it still doesn't.
    ... frustrated, you end up deleting the whole library.  Because there seems to be no other way to clear space.
    And re-download.
    But "use cellular data" is back on, so it downloads when you're out.
    And your phone bill is now $300 because you live in Canada and the data caps are so low.
    Great.  Now I paid over $350 to get my music I already own onto the phone.
    At this point, the old USB seems like a better option.  Or even the firewire 400.  Longing for the days of my 10 gig iPod with a FireWire cable.
    Thanks. So much for "positive user experience".
    Easy to buy music, hard to get it on to your device.  But as long as I've already given you my money, who cares right?!
