Premiere Elements

I just started with PE upgrading from Windows Movie Maker would you believe!One thing I do a lot of is trim unwanted footage from clips.I have watched multiple YT vids and read instruction posts but am having trouble.If I cut a clip (say the first part) and then use ripple delete to delete it, when I start playing the remaining video the audio is out of synch with the video and I am forced to undo it. This happens wherever on the timeline I do it so I have not been successful in deleting any footage.I would appreciete it if I could be directed to what I am doing wrong.Thanks.

When introducing text to video, playback is distorted (flickering). Any suggestions on how to fix this problem.

Hi new user here. Try to create custom keyboard shortcuts. No problem.Save the Custom set. No Problem Reported. However if I close and re-open, it goes back to the default set and does not show the saved set in the dropdown list. I couldn't find an answer in either the forum or the help files. Steve 

At this URL: https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/premiere-elements/using/dock--undock--group-and-float-panels.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com, Adobe talks in detail about docking and undocking of panels. Does this function work the way it is suggested? If so, I can't make it work and I've had Adobe products for decades. The two most obvious contenders for the process are Project Assets and Add Media. Yet these seem pretty immovable.Now I know full well that Elements is not Pro. I have Pro; I geddit. But why go to great length to illustrate a feature in Elements that doesn't seem to do anything useful? Related to the this, why does the dual monitor mode not releaee all the function panels and why does full screen mode not offer a choice of monitor?

I am loading Elements 2024. The Editor will open fine, but the Organizer will open for a few seconds and then shut down. I have removed it and reloaded it, but no success.

Why was the scissors option removed from the playhead in 2025? I find it makes editing more  cumbersome.  It was so much easier to be able to cut a clip from the playhead without having to specifically enable the scissors tool from the quick tools panel or keyboard. I remember when this feature was added a few versions back and I said "This is a great idea."  And now someone thinks it's an "upgrade" to get rid of it? It is one of several changes from 2024 that make editing less efficient by adding extra steps not needed before. Such as now when you right click on a clip the option to delete either the video or audio portions of a clip are gone and now you must first unlike the auto and video and then clear the porton you don't want.  I don't understand how removing features improves things.  2024:

I noticed that my timecode was running too fast (about double speed).  So, for instance, if I imported a 1 min long clip, it would show as 2 mins.  I fiddled with the settings and changed it from 'drop frame' to 'non drop frame' and things work normally.  The source material is 60 fps, and my project settings are 1440p @ 60fps, so everything matches.

Le montage vidéo est impossible car PLUS DE SON à cause de la raison invoquée en titre.Quelqu'un aurait-il une explication ou une solution. Réponse en français SVP 

I have a backup of a old drive of mine from 2016 with an install of Adobe Premiere Elements 14 & I'd like to see if there's a way to retrive the serial number from the drive it's installed to. I had a boxed copy of the software from the same time, but I can't find it at the moment. Looking through old emails & booting up Premiere Elements 14 when booting from the drive, it was linked up to a old Adobe account that I believe was been deleted due to not logging into it for a while (which I never got any notice about). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just upgraded from Premiere Elements 18 to 25.  In this version, it seems that I cannot change the volume of an Audio channel multiple times within a video.  If I start with Audio 1 at 1dB, for example, then decrease the volume later while I'm narrating, the initial volume also decreases to the same level -- is it possible to have volume changes in a given channel during a video?  How do I do that?

Has Steve's Muvipix.Com website been moved? When trying to connect to it via the Firefox browser I get a page from IONOS stating that "This domain has been registered via IONOS and is not yet connected to a website."

Hello community,  The drop down menus (File/Edit/Find/ etc.) and the Sort By: & Filter: drop down menus do not work. This has been an issue from the first time I downloaded the Elements bundle after purchase. I contacted Adobe support and requested a remote session without any success.  Adobe support did not correct the issue. Previous 2023 Elements products were unistalled.  Recently I thought I would attempt to use the Organizer and maybe attempt to fix the issue. The issue is still present. If any users have solved this issue please share your solution. Thanks. Daniel 

I try to add 113 images for a video as a group, and there are many that have added the word opacity to it.  What is that about?

in Premiere Elements 2025 I find no way to create a list of frequently use Effects   [Typo in title and body fixed by moderator]

Is there a way for doing that for adding titles ?

Coming from APE 2021 I used the time remapping feature just fine.  The window opens to allow zone additions and all that it does.  Upgraded to APE 2025, using the same computer, Win 11, the time remapping window doesn't open.  I have used this before in 2021 and do know I have to select the clip etc.  In 2025 all that opens is the right side panel with a range slider with 2 blue sliders that allow for ONE range setting only.  There is also a range speed slider, clip duration and ramp checkbox.  Save and exit button.  No window opens with the thumbnails below to select different zones and speeds.  How is this an upgrade Adobe?My search through Adobe instructions all picture this necessary window in their 2025 information.  I can't find anyone else that has expressed this problem, on boards, google, or Youtube.It does function but without the window I can only do one time zone per clip.  This sucks, what am I doing wrong? I've looked EVER

Hello again. I really want to use Adobe Premiere Elements 2018 again, but my key no longer works as I have used them all and don't have access to the computers to deactivate them. So my question is this - can I buy additional keys for Adobe Premiere Elements 2018? I have the new version, but it is missing quite a lot of features from the 2018 version.

I'm upgrading from Premier Elements 2021, to 2025, and the drastically changed/new/different interface is tripping me up. Three main Q's:1. Is there any way to ask Elements 2025 to shift back to a "legacy appearance", comparable to the 2021 version, or other prior versions?2. What command do I use to rotate a video by a controlled and limited amount, rather than in 90 degree increments? For example, if someone was holding the video camera at a slightly off-kilter angle, such as 4 degrees clockwise, how can I return the video to normal vertical?3. How can I zoom in, using a controllable slider, rather than the 1.5x, 2x, and other fixed increments that show up in the list of zooming options?Any help on ANY of those would be truly useful, and appreciated.

Hallo, wie kann ich mein Premiere Element von Window jetzt Mac aktivieren.

I am trying to align several clips in Adobe Premiere Elements 2020 but I can only "nudge" the clips (or the CTI) in single frame increments.  IOW, if I try to nudge either the CTI or the clip, they move a full frame length, no less. Does this have anything to do with snapping? If so, how do I turn it off? How can I move my clips by only a franction of a frame length? Thanks

I am using Premiere Elements 15 on 2 PCs running windows 10. One an older Dell XPS 9000 and the other a brand new Dell XPS 8900. Both machines have I7 processors, lots of memory and lots of disk space. The older machine has had the same issue in Premiere Elements 14 and 15. The new machine was just setup and is only running Premiere Elements 15. Both machines pause in the exact same way. After hitting play the video randomly stops. It does not make a difference which clip or it it has been rendered or not. Clicking play starts the video again, and it will randomly stop again. I adjusted many setting per dozens of discussions I've seen. I tried turning off services and upgrading and downgrading drivers. I removed the RealTek audio drivers. I tried rendering. I tried removing the video card and using the motherboard video only. I tried unlinking the audio from the video and deleting the audio (so only the video played) and I tried deleting the video (so just the audio played). I ran the

I have a 16:9 landscape video project. Within the timeline there is a clip which is a landscape photo media element. This photo shall be overlaid with a portrait 9:16 video clip from a second video track. Unfortunatly the vertical margins arround the portrait video clip are rendered black not transparent. Hence the underlying photo is no longer visible. How can I make the margins of the portrait video clip transparent instead of black? I tried several things, including the "Transform.Clip" effect, but I did not succeed. (Premiere Elements 2025, Windows 11)  

Die Steuerung über die J-K-L Tasten ist sehr praktisch. Leider muss ich bei meinem PRE v21 immer erst einmal auf den Cursor in der Timeline klicken, ehe die Steuerung funktioniert. Ohne diesen Klick haben die Tasten keine Funktion.Weiß jemand Rat? Gewünscht wäre, dass die Tasten wie vorgesehen wirken, solange man in der Timeline (oder dem Source-Monitor) arbeitet.Vielen DankWendelin
