Gary Maloney: I have an older version of Adobe Premiere. The program is working fine right up to the time I want to burn something on a disc then it wants me to activate a component but when I click on the link it gives me an error
Kapil: Hello Gary, as per my understanding, you have Premiere elements installed on your computer and the disk crahsed, now you are unable to use the applicatiion.
Gary Maloney: No crash - I am using an external disc burner. That is the only difference - I've designed the video - no problem - when I want to actually put it on a disc it wants me to activate a component. Adobe gives me a link - when I click on it - it says it's not available -

I have nothing but bad news. You are working with a version so old that some components are no longer available. No matter what the activation code is, it is not going to activate something that no longer exists.
Can you output a video file of some standard format to your computer hard disk? Depending on your goal's there are a variety of ways to play or project that type of video file.
