Why won't CS6 load a project file?

Here's my problem, I have one really big project and Premiere opens it just fine. But once it begins to load it eventually freezes. I've tried moving the files off an external drive onto my local drive, I've tried to delete some of the files in case the project just has too much memory used & I've tried to clean out the media cache folders. Nothing is solving the problem, what do you guys think might be the problem?

If those externals are USB that could definitely be an issue. USB3 can sustain read speeds to hold say footage but the read-write issues of having anything other than footage on one is a problem. If you've got a project file or cache files over USB3, it's very problematic.
Also, your RAM and CPU cycle speed are both on the low end of usability for practical things. Could run CS6 okay but won't really do too well with the CC versions. Like me, you've got a quad-core machine, more cores & faster bus speeds are better. Sigh.
The Tweakers Page is a great resource ... some of the all-time HUGE participants on these forums put together a series of real-world tests of the Adobe DVA's run through computers ... they have a file you download & it's got a resource monitoring program and a PrPro project file that's not "long" but is loaded with PrPro & AfterEffects stuff that is designed to test every part of your computer ... CPU, front-side bus & disc-access speeds, RAM & GPU/vRAM use, disc-in/out, all of it. A lot of people have run this and loaded the log-files back up to their site so they have real-world data on different computer parts & combinations and how they actually work.
Tweaker's Page ...
http://ppbm7.com/index.php/tweakers-page
Among other stuff there, they've got some great info on how to "array" your video "stuff" ... from OS, program, and project file locations on the computer to where cache files, previews, database, and footage should be placed on systems ranging from two drives to mega-drives. Project files, cache files, database ... all have a ton of read-write cycles, and so need fast access both in/out. Spreading these files out on multiple internal drives or a combo of internal/external using eSATA & Thunderbolt connections for the externals is recommended ... or putting them all on a RAID 0 4/5 disc array of say 2 Tb drives. Internal SSD discs (secondary, not the system or C drive) for cache/previews/database is also good.
Footage files need mostly simple read-times & data transport, so they can be on say a USB3 external and be acceptable, and say export files also can be on such a drive.
Depending on the connections to your externals, you may need to say move project files internal (even if on the same as the system, not optimal) and leave the footage on the externals. But reading up a bit might give you some ideas on how to proceed ...

Why won't CS6 load brush shape dynamics from brush presets?

I have a bunch of saved brush presets that I use on multiple computers and photoshop versions.
In CS6 suddenly my brush presets won't load correctly when I pick a brush.
When I pick a brush I'll get all the correct brush settings EXCEPT for the Shape Dynamics. Shape Dynamics will remain the same throughout all my different brushes.
I've done all of the following steps and in various combinations with no result:
reloaded my brush presets
resaved my brush presets
re install my wacom drivers
unplugged and re-plugged my wacom
restarted my computer
update photoshop
I'm using Photoshop CS6 (64Bit) on windows 8
My tablet is a Intuos 5 touch L
Thanks beforehand

Two things to check
The Pressure Override could be enabled for size in the tool options bar
The Lock button to the right of Shape Dynamics in the Brush panel could be enabled

IDVD won't load large project file..Help!

iDVD won't load large project file once I close the program for the first time since finishing the project. Basically, I made a compilation DVD of numerous individual files spread across quite a few folders/sub-menus totaling about 236 minutes on a Dual Layer DVD+R. I closed the project prior to burning but now, iDVD gets the rainbow wheel everytime you try to load that particular project. What's the deal?
Notes:
-iDVD does still load if I want to load another (smaller/simple project) or start a new one.
-I've tried to start over from scratch a make the exact same project. When I exited out and went to load it, it did the same thing.
-I'm running Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard and iDVD 7.1.2.
Any suggestions?

Premiere Elements is not part of the Cloud... and it has a different forum
http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere_elements?view=discussions
When you go to the correct forum, you need to provide a LOT more information
From the Premiere Elements Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042180
•What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
•Have you installed any recent program or OS updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
•What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
•If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
•What were you doing when the problem occurred?
•What other software are you running?
•Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed? How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
•Has this ever worked before? If so, do you recall any changes you made to Premiere Elements, such as adding Plug-ins, brushes, etc.? Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers; or installing/uninstalling any programs?
And some other questions...
•What are you editing, and does your video have a red line over it BEFORE you do any work?
•Have you viewed the tutorial links at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1275830 page?
•Which version of Quicktime do you have installed?

Why won't elements 12 download raw files from Nikon D810?

Why won't elements 12 download raw files from Nikon D810? I got a message saying that the camera model is not supported by installed version of camera raw. How do I fix it?

Photoshop Elements questions should be posted in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
You can re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
My opinion on this....from the Photoshop Elements perspective...
Nikon D810 is supported by Camera Raw 8.6 and higher (latest version of Camera Raw is 8.7)
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
At the same time, the Camera Raw version needs to be supported by the Photoshop Elements version.
Photoshop Elements 12 appears to support Camera Raw up to 8.5 which does not support the Nikon D810.
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Solution...
a. switch to Photoshop Elements 13 (comes with Camera Raw 8.6 and can be updated to 8.7).
b. use the DNG Converter in Photoshop Elements 12

Why won't Aperture 2 support RAW files imported from Canon 60D when it does from my Olympus DSLR?

Why won't Aperture 2 support RAW files imported from Canon 60D when it does from my Olympus DSLR?

I'm afriad the fact that your Olympus dSLR is supported is no relevance.
The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
Support for individual camera models has to be added one by one, and Apple will update the OS to work with the most recent version of the software. That's an incentive for you to keep up-to-date. So, for support for your 60D you'll need 10.6.5 plus Aperture 3 and/or iPhoto 11.

Hi David,
Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Why can't I load plugins from file system ?

Hello.
Why can't I load plugins from file system, fore development sake for ex. ?
Thx.
Andrew.

For security reasons, the Flash Player doesn't allow applications to access both the file system and the network.
One workaround is to compile the plugins in statically (rather than load them dynamically). The Akamai Plugin Sample shows you how to load plugins either way, you can see the source here: http://opensource.adobe.com/svn/opensource/osmf/trunk/apps/samples/plugins/AkamaiPluginSam ple/.

I've downloaded the CR8.7 update - why won't PSE load it?

PSE is showing CR7.4 as the version it's using. Why won't it update?

To use ACR 8.7 you’ll need PSE13 and would need to wait until the ACR 8.7 Final is released because the RC is only ever for Photoshop, not Elements.
However, you can edit new camera files by downloading the DNG Converter 8.7 RC from the same place and using it to convert your raw files to DNGs then those DNGs will open in an older PSE/ACR combo.

Why won't excel read my csv file created with the powersell out-file automatically.

I wrote a PowerShell script that creates a CSV formatted file. The script simply creates a comma delimited string for each entry and adds it to a collection. Then the out-file command write it to a file.
When you open it with Excel each line is put into one cell. If you import the file and specify the "," as the delimiter, it imports just fine. If the data is saved out again as a csv file, the file is about half the size and opens
just fine with excel.
If you open the original file and the file created by Excel with notepad, they look the same.
So the files are different in size, contents look the same, but Excel won't automatically open the original file.
Any ideas of why this happens? Also PowerShell and Excel are both running on Server 2012 R2. Excel is a remote app.
If I do an export-CSV, I get some kind of information about the object.
Here is the script:
foreach ($group in $groups)
   $header += '"' + $group.name + '",'
   $CSVdata = @()
   $CSVdata += $header
   # Create a user entry
   $users = Get-ADUser -filter * |select SamAccountname, Name | sort SamAccountName
   foreach ($user in $users)
      $Groupmembership = Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity $user.SamAccountName
      $userentry = '"' + $user.SamAccountName + '",'
      $user
      foreach ($group in $groups)
          if ($Groupmembership.SamAccountName -contains $group.SamAccountName) { $userentry += '"X",'}
          else { $userentry += '"",' }
       $CSVdata += $userentry
      $CSVdata
      Out-File -inputobject $CSVdata -FilePath c:\batch\GroupMembership.csv

Ok the script works exactly like I want it. Thank you very much.
I am trying to understand the script but I am unable to figure out what the line "$keys=$t.Keys|%{$_}"
does. I figured ".keys" was a method but my search for it comes up blank. Do you have a reference you can point me to?

Why won't iTunes read an RSS file

I have had Radio National podcasts in itunes for a while but it has not updated since Dec 13 and I went to the website to download the new podcasts and it says that I do not have a RSS reader loaded?
Why won't itunes do it?
thanks
Lee

Are you talking about one of these:
http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/podcasts/program/
Click where it says 'Subscribe in iTunes'. When the page opens, click 'View in iTunes'. When iTunes opens and shows the Store page click 'Subscribe'.
If that doesn't answer it, you need to give more details as to what exactly you are doing.
