Windows 8 and Premiere 11???  Please help

Hi
I'm on windows 8 (64 bit) and PE11.  Today I lost all my work although I had saved regularly and I have to re-render very often.  Tonight as I'm trying to re-do my day's work, I'm losing sync and entire clips keep disapearing.  It seems to be becoming increasingly unstable.  I really don't know if I'm doing something wrong or, possibly, Windows 8 and Premire Elements 11 aren't the best fit.  I've noticed a few other post mentioning Window 8 problems although they seem to differ from mine.
The head of IT at my company wants to remove windows 8 and install windows 7 on my computer (mainly becasue of a VPN issue) but I am afraid I will lose all my work.
Can anyone suggest a way, or a number to call, to tell me how I can save my work, rid myself of windows 8 and then re-import my work into a windows 7 enviornment?  I fear 2 weeks of my work is going up in smoke. 
PS I posted earlier, I am also having increasing frequent crashes.
Please Help
Thank you

Hi Nealeh,
I think it is more than 'gut' feeling about Windows 8.  I had the same experience sometimes things worked, other times they didn't. Colleagues & I have problems with other programs after the Window 8 upgraded.  Infact, my VPN would not work at all with Windows 8 but works fine on W7 (luckily so I can work from home on this snowy day) 
However,  since my last post I've had a new weird problems, although all the annimation footage that I generated in Photoshop/Premiere import just fine, I have to re-import them every day.  However the .MOV which worked perfectly on the Windows 8 platform now have the 'importer reported a generic error' in Windows 7.  According to the forums it may be a codec problem so I'm going to try re-importing them into the computer or try this codec solution I read about (although it seems very confusing)
I didn't want to convert to Windows 7 mid project, but with all the major crashes I had no choice.  If you are mid project, maybe you can publish the project as is to use with the new platform.  I wish I had been able to do that, exspecially with the animations as they took a long time to build, and it looks like I'm going to have to start from scratch.
Good luck with getting off Windows 8.

    It sounds like you've installed language packs instead of dictionaries, because there's no South African dictionary available.

    This is the English (British) add-on you need installed to have a dictionary in that language:
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/british-english-dictionary-/
    After you've installed it, right-click a text field and make sure the "Check Spelling" option is enabled. Then in the Language submenu you can find "English (United Kingdom)". You can use the following add-on to automatically switch the language for the spell checker.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!

    Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!
    Hi,
    I have the following set up:
    * Lenovo T-61p
    * Windows XP Pro, SP 3
    * HP Photosmart 8250 printer (with nothing plugged into the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer)
    I am getting the following error:
    Windows - No Disk
    Exception Processing Message 0xc0000013 Parameters 0x75CE023C
    0x84C40C84 0x75CE023C
    I have done a lof experimenting and thru process of  elimination, and believe I have determined that this only happens when the HP Photosmart 8250 printer is plugged in to the USB slot of the computer.
    I can stop it from happening by safely removing hardware, and removing the drive that the 8250 creates on your computer when you plug it in.  In my case, this is drive E.  I'm guessing if there was something in the the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer, that's what those would be, but I don't those use those functions of the printer.
    I understand there is more at work than simply the printer, because I did not used to get this error, so some software changed as well, that is scanning all ports, and finding a drive that has no disk, and producing the error.
    A simple google search finds a lot people all over the world having this problem, and are solving it in different ways, because the suspected source is different: Norton, HP, etc.
    I have tried everything I have read, and the only thing that works was my own idea, of manually safely removing the drive the printer creates each time I plug in the printer.
    Anyone every any better, more permanent solutions?  Or know what the real root of the problem is?  What is scanning all the drives and being showing an error message because it found an empty drive?
    Thanks and Happy Holidays/New Year!

    I've been getting the same error on my 4G nano for the past week. I've had my nano for about a month and the first few weeks were fine. Tried it on 2 different computers (Vista and XP) and same problem. Tried it on a 3rd (XP) and it started ok. Problem started coming back after a day.
    I was able to find a quick fix though. I noticed that sometimes the message says something like "iexplore.exe... no disk..." even if I don't even use IE. What I do is end iexplore.exe on task manager before running iTunes and syncing my nano. I don't get the error whenever I do this, but one drawback is that the contents of my nano suddenly pops up in a window - even when disk use is not enabled.
    I've reset/restored my nano dozens and dozens of times to make sure it's clean. Leads me to believe it's a driver issue. Either that or I have a friggin malware problem I can't seem to find.
    I'll be posting updates every now and then. I'm no expert so I'm hoping an Apple expert also steps in to give some input.

    Same as, although a new development on this last night, I borrowed a mates USB hub that has it's own mains power supply and for a short time my laptop recognised my IPOD, I obviously thought i had found the solutions as it started to sync at which point the smug smile left my face as i could smell burning plastic. Yep, the usb cable was melting in to the USB hub. so not only won't the sodding thing work properly it is a god **** fire hazard. Luckily our producst that cost hundreds of pounds are supported by friendly and helpful people at Apple!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Oh and i downloaded itunes 7.6 last night and nothing.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Collect the PDFs you want to link to in your site. Then link to them in
    the Inspector palette just like you'd link to other pages. If you want
    the PDF to open in a new window use target _blank as before.
    What actually happens on a visitors computer however depends on whether
    they have the PDF viewer plugin installed. In that case the PDF will
    display in the browser window. If they don't have it installed, the PDF
    will download to their computer and they'll need to open it manually.
