Why does PE10 crash creating a slideshow?

I have created numerous slideshows with many images using the nice Pan&Zoom features. However, PE10 will crash upon creating the output video. This is dependent on the resolution chosen.
I don't seem to have much trouble with 720x480 DVD output. 800x600 will also work most of the time, but 1024x768 will fail often.
I have been able to get all modes working by simply saving my project, closing PE10, reopening the app & prj, and then doing the output video creation.
So it seems there maybe some memory leak bug or something like that. For example, when the 1024x768 mode works, if I move onto more projects & video outputs, eventually PE10 will crash.
But if I close, and re-open, then all seems to be fine. PE10 wants a clean start.
PE10 is the first version I've had where Photoshop Elements has crashed numerous times for varied reasons, and yet Premiere Elements seems ultra stable in comparison.
Sure would love to see an update for both though from Adobe - why is there no update by now?

The slideshow output process of the Elements Organizer uses Windows Temporary files.  Therefore it is my suspicion that you are reaching some limit on those Temporary files - either the disk space on your hard drive or specific Windows OS limits on Temporary files. 
Geneeral considerations are
-- Therefore doing the Windows disk cleanup process for your hard drive might make available more hard drive space for the temporary files needed during the slide show editor output process.
-- Your reported results that closing Photoshop Elements and restarting again can avoid the problem (for awhile) seems to confirm the possibility of some type of space or temporary files  problem. 
-- Since your are failing for 1024 x 768, I suspect that you are not actually burning a physical disc. So I think that 99jon's recommendation might need to be modified to say that you create the 1024x768 wmv file from Premiere Elements instead of burning a disc.
-- If your problem is insufficient hard drive disc space, then I doubt that sending to Premiere Elements for output can solve insufficient space.
-- If your problem is specifically Temporary files, then using Premiere Elements for output might avoid that problem.  However, I would try a Disk Cleanup first.

    That won't do. What I mean is you have to navigate to the file and make it active in pastebin and then copy the highlighted line like this

    I think this is done by the browser when it is saving a temporary file and there's already a file with that exact name in the temp folder.

  • Why does Safari crash?

    Why does Safari crash on my internal start-up disk and not on a booted SuperDuper external disk?
    Safari started behaving weird with very high CPU usage, then it refused to start up altogether, it doesn't even reach the safari icon when it crashes.
    Did repair disk permissions. No good.
    Around the same day i also lost the connection with my TimeMachine drive (third time this year). I've had it with timemachine.

  • TS3274 why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?

    why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?

    Hi DizzyTaco2,
    If you are having issues with an Apple application such as iBooks freezing or quitting unexpectedly on your iPad, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Why does Safari crash in the middle of a movie or show from the internet?

    Why does Safari crashes in the middle of a movie or show from the internet?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Why does safari crash after lion upgrade

    why does safari crash after lion upgrade

    Right or control click the Safari app in the Applications folder then click Get Info.
    In the Get Info panel, look for the Safari version number. If it's prior to Safari 6, updating to Safari 6 may help.
    Click here >  Safari Quits Every Time Opened: Apple Support Communities
    Then click the link posted by:  gregoryfromcork
    That will automatically download this file >  Safari6Lion.pkg.download
    Now quit Safari.
    Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.
    Then restart your Mac, try Safari.
    If you already have Safari 6 installed, post a crash report.
    If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash  information.
    Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply including the, "binary images" sesction.
    f the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.

  • Why does fcpx crash every time i try to edit titles/text??

    why does fcpx crash every time i try to edit titles/text?? I'm trying to wrap up a project for work and now fcpx thinks it needs to crash every time i click on a "title" to edit it. It's making the completion of this project nearly impossible.

    nope, i'm just using the select tool "a" to move my titles .. if the inspector is open, the second i click on any title in any project the whole program crashes. but with the inspector closed i can move my titles at will without a crash. i'm not sure what's allowing me to manipulate titles since you've said Lion updates haven't fixed this function. and i'm not sure what's making fcpx crash to the ground every time i click a title with the inpector open. all i know is that this little loophole i've found is working for me and has allowed me to complete my project this morning which is awesome.

  • Why does mail keep creating a new junk mail folder?

    Hi Michael
    Welcome to the forum.
    Do you have Stuffit installed and are saving to the desktop?
    Because in that case it is Stuffit decompressing the Pages document's package.
    Just save to your document folder.

  • Why does organizer crash @ keyword save

    why does organizer crash at keyword tag save? Elements 9 Organizer, Mac OS 10.7.4

    Hello, PECourtejoie
    I appreciate you taking to time to assist me, but unfortunately, this has done absolutely nothing for my problem.
    I've spent hours looking for a solution to this problem on the forums for the past few days, before deciding to bother anybody, and I've seen this solution has been suggested multiple times for people with similar issues to mine, but like most of them, it has not resolved the issue. I've noticed that most of those posts / questions are eventually abandoned completely and I really don't want this to happen to mine.
    EDIT:
    I forgot to add that this:
    The Plugins\Adobe Save for Web CS6\Photoshop folder is completely empty.
    Is this normal?
    Thank you again!

  • Why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported?How do I stop it from changing?

    why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported?  How do I stop it from changing? I must have a prefernce set up wrong.

    I don't know what OS you are using, or what application you are using to view the data about your exported files, but on Windows and using Windows Explorer the "Date Created" field relates only to the date that the exported file was created, i.e. if viewed immediately after export it will show the date created as being the same date. In order to view "Capture Date" in something like Explorer, you first have to ensure you have included the Metadata as Conrad outlined above, then you have to adjust the display properties of Explorer to show the "Date Taken" field. Here is an example, part of a folder I exported back on March 3rd, note the difference between that last two dates:
