PE9 - One of the best products of 2010?

It seems that VideoMaker has selected Adobe Premiere Elements 9 as one of their best products of the year for 2010. Just received their email announcing the decision.
What about all the issues users are experiencing, according to this forum?

Steven,
This is just me thinking, and I have done zero formal research into things, so please take it for what it is - just thinking.
On a product forum, we see a lot of problems. That is one of the functions of such a forum. There are seldom posters, who are experiencing no issues, who come to state such. The one exception will often be with some of the regulars, who may well post a "things really work well for me, with this product," sort of posts, or might include such in there replies to others.
Over the decades, the issues with an NLE (Non Linear Editor) program, normally sort out this way, and in this order:
System
Assets
Project settings
OE (Operator Error)
Real Bugs in the program
Note: the above can be intertwined too.
Because an NLE stresses the computer more than about anything other than heavy-duty 3D or CAD work (most systems doing those operations are usually designed specifically for those purposes), and then in the video sub-system area, extreme gaming. Many computers are just not capable of running an NLE properly, and most are probably not set up properly for that task - some tweaking can go a very long way.
Once one gets into the process of troubleshooting, they can examine the above list, pretty much in that order, to see where the problems are. With a proper system (and a properly tuned system), most of the problems will sort out. Next, with proper Assets in a correct Project, most of the rest will sort out. Then, one must study their workflow and how they are attempting to edit - might be an issue there. Last, there will always be Bugs, and glitches, but some programs, and versions of programs ARE better than others.
Most problems presented here can be sorted out, by working through the above list. One exception is with installation issues. Most of the regulars here do not have experience with those, but many seem to. We can only read of what worked for others, and try to apply that knowledge to help others, but do hit brick walls. Some of those installation issues can only be sorted out by Adobe T/S, or C/S. We see a lot here. The majority are easily handled, because of OE, with things like trying to install the Functional Content, before the program has been installed, issues with one's browser and security settings, when downloading. Then, there are often issues with other software, such as anti-virus, pop-up blockers and spy sweepers, that interfere with the installation. Oh, and then there are the likely issues with the OS security settings, or where one is attempting to install to, and how they are trying to perform the installation.
If one eliminates every post, with problems solved from the first four items on that list, the real Bugs only comprise a very small portion of issues. That would be the list that I would draw from, when rating a program. It seems that PrE 8 had more than its share of Bugs. PrE 9, while still having some (possibly too many yet?), seems to be a much better program, and more stable on a wider array of equipment. It also seems to work better with a broader array of Assets, than its predecessors.
Remember, the above are but observations and impressions on my part. There is no scientific study behind them. Also, I do not work for Adobe, and am but a lowly user. I do not yet have PrE 9 installed, so cannot add any first-hand impressions on that front. I plan on upgrading my aged PrE 4, when I go to Win7 64 on new computers, but will tread very, very carefully, as I use PrPro (will be CS5 on those new machines), and Steve Grisetti has pointed out some issues with other Adobe apps., like Bridge, which I use often, and PrE 9. As I make my living with PrPro, PS, AI and AE, and use PrE as a supplemental tool, I cannot afford to break something like Bridge, or to have a clean machine (no other Adobe programs), just for PrE. That said, I might be no better at doing a full review of PrE 9, if it DOES get in the way of my Adobe Master Collection. If I can do that review, I only hope that it will support the findings of VideoMaker, but until then, we will not know.

  • What is the best product for network mapping and monitoring? I am an inexperienced user). Mac 10.9.2 laptop

    I have lots of questions, but the gist is that I want to know the best product, preferably from the app store, that I can use for network mapping mapping and monitoring.
    I want to get their mac address or other police trackable etc info so I can use my computer safely.
    I am also being cyberbullied.
    I try just using ethernet but still get intruded on, for instance, messages that "other devices are using my ip address". The only other device I own is an iPod that I keep sahut off plus wifi turned off then.
    (NOTE:  You can skip the rest of this message if you want. It regards hacking attempts etc,  a little out of the scope of discussion, perhaps).
    Also a home intrusion where computer was thoroughly hacked with router(s) set up "very very close to me," according to Apple.
    Also, hackers get into my Facebook and gmail and yahoo mail, really,  no matter what I try to do on my computer and how many times I change passwords it does no good.
    Also,  The ip addresses for google and the one in syste preferences and the one looking up my ip address on ip chicken always gets three different results.
    More worrisome it that hackers got into my Wells Fargo account a week after the intrusion even though I changed all account #'s and pw plus notified bank. They also broke into paypal using my new account numbers.
    Also, stuff like Facetime pops up on my computer without my clicking on it even though I'm using ethernet to connect. I've given up on Time Capsule because I'm told that's how the hackers hacked my computer so thoroughly duriung the intrusion.
    Thanks.

    Aubry,
    why don't you send your sequences straight to Compressor first, encode your movies as MPEG 2 and AC3 audio and import all assets in DVD studio PRO?

  • What is the best product, if any, for malware removal?

    wwhat is the best product, if any, for malware removal?

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • What is the best product for keeping a mac pro running fast?

    What is the best product for keeping my mac pro running at optimal speed?

    Enough RAM. More than just so there are no pageouts.
    A fast small SSD for boot system drive that is only OS and apps and 50% free
    Backup clones of your system and data plus TimeMachine
    Avoid security suites from 3rd parties and other would be helpers (unless instructed to for a specific need and purpose).
    Replace and update older components. could be graphic card, no longer suffices wtih Lion, or causes heat and dust. And make sure that the fans cool the system properly. May need to boost the low default fan speed profile and that is one utility that can be a must. Also monitor system temp readings.
    Don't jusst idly restart after a crash or freeze, use Lion Recovery Mode and Safe Boot instead.
    Make backup clone before making updates and changes to your system.

  • Why are there 2 'after effects', 14 and regular and which one is the best use? It seems a little crazy to use twice the storeage for the same program?

    I up graded adobe cc last night and the cc app down loaded up-grades to my original cc apps, plus another app of each labeled 14. Why do we need two copies of the same app on our machines, and which one is the best to use. I hope adobe in not going down the same road as apple and screwing up the works. i still remember way back when adobe goofed it so bad I switched to final cut. Now apple has screwed up final cut and I am back to Premiere. I know we have huge drives now, but come on, why two bit eating monsters that do the same thing. Stan / Desert Wind Productions.

    The "2014" versions are new versions of the software. It's like the difference between CS5 and CS6. The new one is (most of the time) significantly better. This isn't any weird screwup, it's just a new version.
    You may want to keep the old version around for compatibility, client needs, safety, etc. However, it probably behooves you to use the current version for all of its new features, etc.

  • I,m looking for handsfree for iphone 4s, which one is the best for it

    i,m looking for handsfree for iphone 4s, which one is the best for it

    I really like the Plantronics Voyager Pro bluetooth headset.  I have tried a lot of the ones on the market and the Plantronics one that I now use has - a long battery life, excellent sound quality and very low background noise. I occasionally use it when in a vehicle (although I do try to avoid doing this) and people on the other end of the line don't even realise that I am in a car.

  • Which one is the best practice!!

    hi all,
    i have one doubt with the lov
    can we show the data in the LOV by decode function or its better to write two LOV's based on the condition.
    which one is the best practice.
    right now i am using decode function. according to the condition the data will come in the LOV.
    Thanks..

    can we show the data in the LOV by decode functionAs you already do, you can.
    its better to write two LOV's based on the condition.It depends. If its a complex lov and only one column varies based onsome condition, it might less work to use just one lov. Personally, i prefer two different lov's

  • Which one is the best way in migration from sap bpc ms 5.1 to nw7.5

    Hi,
    I am doing Migration project from SAP BPC MS to NW.
    In this which one is the best way migrating By manually or By using SAP Migration tool.
    What are the merits and demarits migrating by manually.
    The data is moving from MS to NW as it is by using sap migration tool.
    Could you please answer my questions as early as possible.

    Hi,
    You would need manual effort anyways. Some of the objects are not either migrated or you need to update manually after the migration. Example, reports have to be modifed and as they may not work due to some of the options.
    Also your packages, script logic etc have to recreated. So its upto you as the migration toosl takes across your appset, applications, dimensions and the master data etc. The manual involvement is inevitable. You need to probably take what the tool allows you to do and make manual corrections for the objects that are not supported.
    Thanks,

  • Which one is the best way to collect config and performance details in azure

    Hi ,
    I want to collect the information of both configuration and performance of cloud, virtual machine and web role .I am going to collect all these details using
    java.  so Please suggest which one is the best way.

    Hi,
    There are four main tasks to use Azure Diagnostics:
    Setup WAD
    Configuring data collection
    Instrumenting your code
    Viewing data
    The original Azure SDK 1.0 included functionality to collect diagnostics and store them in Azure storage collectively known as Azure Diagnostics (WAD). This software, built upon the Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) framework, fulfills two design requirements
    introduced by Azure scale-out architecture:
    Save diagnostic data that would be lost during a reimaging of the instance..
    Provide a central repository for diagnostics from multiple instances.
    After including Azure Diagnostics in the role (ServiceConfiguration.cscfg and ServiceDefinition.csdef), WAD collects diagnostic data from all the instances of that particular role. The diagnostic data can be used for debugging and troubleshooting, measuring
    performance, monitoring resource usage, traffic analysis and capacity planning, and auditing. Transfers to Azure storage account for persistence can either be scheduled or on-demand.
    To know more about Azure Diagnostics, please refer to the below article ( Section : Designing More Supportable Azure Services > Azure Diagnostics )

    We want to create an online contract form with different options which will determine different prices as they make their choices. We will also require a legally binding e-signature. Is Acrobat the best product or even an option for this?

    You need to use form fields. See the Acrobat help section and this site: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/
    However, that last part (receiving an automatic response when a form is submitted) has nothing to do with Acrobat, or even with the PDF file. This is something you'll need to set up on your web (or email) server.

  • BCS Data Model (which one is the best)

    Hi,
    We are implementing SEM-BCS 6.0 with SAP BI 7.0.
    We have 2 possibilities for a data model and we need help to decide which one is the best.
    The first possibility is:
    1)       SAP ECC 6.0:
    a.      Define 2 (two) charts of accounts (company chart of accounts and consolidation chart of accounts) that are mapped/linked in transaction FSP0;
    b.      Define Balance and an Income Statement hierarchy for the group/consolidation chart of accounts;
    2)       BW (BI 7.0)
    a.      In BW we also have both charts of accounts, with a Balance and an Income Statement hierarchy for the group/consolidation chart of accounts. These ones were replicated from source system SAP ECC;
    3)       SEM-BCS 6.0
    a.      IN BCS we update the Financial Statement Item automatically based on/equal to consolidation chart of accounts (and not based on Balance and Income statement);
    b.      For reporting issues, we will define BW workbooks,  based on the Group Balance and Income statement,  for Consolidation reporting. In resume, we will have the Balance and an Income Statement hierarchy for the group/consolidation chart of accounts, created in SAP ECC, replicated in BW in order to report consolidated data.
    The second possibility:
    1)       SAP ECC 6.0:
    In R3 we only have the company chart of accounts. For consolidation purposes  we will define a Balance and an Income statement item hierarchies, one for legal report and the second one for management report, which the superior nodes (items) are the aggregation of G/L Accounts (below nodes).
    2)       BW (BI 7.0)
    In BW we will replicate the Balance and Income Statement that was created in SAP ECC.
    3)       SEM-BCS 6.0
    In BCS we would have to:
                                                      i.      Create automatically the Financial Statement Item, based on the items of Balance and an Income Statement hierarchies, which would be a concatenate of the two item hierarchies.
                                                     Or
                                                        ii.      Create 2 Financial Statement Items, where which one would depend on the balance or the income statement hierarchy.
    Which of the possibilities is the best?
    Having 2 charts of accounts (company and consolidation) or just have one chart of accounts (company) and have a balance item hierarchy consolidated and create the financial statement item in BCS having this hierarchy in account and not a consolidation chart of accounts?
    In our opinion the first scenario is the best one, because is seem to be more flexible and as we have the intention to use SEM BPS in the next year, for budget purpose. Furthermore, we think that with the first scenario we can have a FS Chart of accounts (in BCS) that is not dependent of reporting purposes (based on Balance and Income statements). 
    Is this interpretation correct?
    Thanks

    Hi Ricardo,
    Yes, The first one is the best choice and it is the way to work.
    SAP has given some How-to documents, which are available in service market place. These documents also suggest almost same path as first choice.
    Thanks

    (need a help)
    I'm a university student .

    They can both read PDFs. It will really boil down to what screen size you prefer and how portable you want it. The iPad Air has a larger screen, but weighs more than the iPad Mini2. Either one will work for you, its just a matter of preference.
    Hope this helps!
