Customer Reviews
Premiere elements is bug ridden crashing unusable (windows 7)
I regret that I didn't check the other reviewers here. Photoshop elements works fine but premiere elements is another matter.
It crashes or freezes all the time. Contacting support does not work, they reply once with a webpage link that says words to the effect of "it is your computers fault if there are crashes or freezes it must be a driver problem our software works perfectly". They try to claim it is your computer, not their software bugs. I have quite a fast PC with 4Gig of memory, lots of hard disc space, all my drivers are fine, no windows system errors, no third party codecs, and a clean windows 7 install just a week ago. All my other software works perfectly. My computer exceeds the minimum requirements.
Don't waste your money on this software. It may work for you but if it doesn't adobe will get you to follow steps on a webpage such as remove everything but their software or reinstall your o/s, checking for system errors etc but all this will have no effect. The software quite simply doesn't work on my computer and I have had no help to fix it, they have stopped replying to my support requests.
The problems are random crashes, high cpu use on exit, the process never goes away until you kill it. Program freezes for minutes everytime you play a video, or start DV capture.
You can get some results from it but it will take you hours of work after you start again after each crash or go and make a cup of tea during every freeze.
It could be a windows 7 thing, however it says it works with windows 7 on the box, that is why I purchased this newest version.
Windows 7 Compatability
Sorry:
Be aware that Adobe does not provide support on this product. I have contacted them several times & they simply do not reply.
DO NOT BUY IF YOU EVER THINK YOU WILL NEED SUPPORT!
It appears that Photoshop Elements 8 & Premier Elements 8 DO NOT make use of the 64 bit Windows 7 operating environment.
This means they cannot use the extra RAM that may be available which would speed up the programs which can be frustratingly slow, even on fast computers.
DO NOT BUY THIS VERSION: - Wait for a Windows 7 version.
Adobe elements 8
Recently bought this to upgrade from Adobe elements version 7, It was easy to install and works really well ( does what it says on the box ) and better value than purchasing both seperately. The ideal combination if you want to correct and adjust your photographs and import and make your own movies. It could have done with a manual being included though for begginers. Books can be purchased seperately on Amazon which take you through it all step by step. I dont see much improvement from my older version 7 but it is always good to have the latest version to hand.
Summary:
1 A good well tested software bundle
2 Needs a manual for new users though help can be obtained from Adobe's home page
3 Good value bought as a bundle
4 Not as sure it is worth upgrading from version 7 if you already own that.
