  • Premiere Export media Window Won’t Come Up

    Posted by Nathan Weatherford on February 7, 2010 at 1:43 am

    Hi!

    Looking for some help on an issue that randomly popped up tonight. I go File > Export > Export Media in Adobe Premiere CS4 on Vista 64 Ultimate and the Export Media window does not come up. Premiere grays out and won’t let me click on anything, as if the window were open. But, it’s no where to be found, even by Alt-tabbing!

    I’m forced to Alt-F4 and close the “invisible” Export Media window… and left with no way to encode anything out of Premiere for the time being. It may be notable that I’ve been using a dual monitor display and moving Premiere from screen to screen for a few weeks. But, that has not interfered with the application before. And, disabling the second monitor does not fix the problem. Please help! : D

    Ok, I finally got it figured out. The Export Settings window was located off screen (apparently in a kind of no-monitor land).

    Here’s how I got it back in view:

    -Hit Alt + Space
    -Hit the down arrow once (to select “Move”)
    -Use the arrow keys to move the window back into view.

    I’ve never really experienced a window being open but not visible because its hanging out off screen so I think that’s why I got so confused.

    Thanks guys and I hope nobody else runs into this and gets as stumped as I did, ha ha.

    I had the same issue. When I tried to move the window like you suggested, I couldn’t grab it/didn’t know where to grab. I realized I had previously had this hooked up to a second monitor, so I plugged it back in and as soon as I had the dual-monitor view, I could see the media encoder to move it back to where I wanted it.
