HeY!!! I just bought Adobe Premiere Elements and the first thing I want to do once its all installed, it doesnt work. When I want to add a media, I cant add any video I shot with my video camera that are on my computer...I can add videos I have on my computer that come from internet or any other video I didnt shoot with my video camera...I dont understand why.... :( Format of the videos I can't add : mpeg...When I click on them to add them, it says Adobe Premiere Elements have a problem and must close...Im sorry if Im not so clear, thats because Im french and my program is also in french. Help me please!

Bonjour Curly, bienvenue.

Hmmm> Uninstall Adobe Preimer Elements and then re-install. It does look as though the installation is corrupt.

Bon chance!

Hi Curly

I've tried the same thing and adobe won't open mpeg files. As far as I know it will only handle .avi and .mov. I've never tried this but have you ever opened the mpegs in windows movie maker and then saved them as .avi's and then try to open them in adobe?
