Great book for someone new to the software. It was a huge help. Excellent index for the beginner.
 Premiere Elements IS a Dummy January 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found the book well written and quite enlightening! Unfortunately, the product Mr.Underdahl is 'teaching' us about is a faulty one at best. After following the book, word for word, I attempted to 'cut my show'. BTW, I am NOT a 'hobbyist'. The book addresses the 'Windows XP' platform and there are a few differences with the newer "Vista". Still, the book describes the many 'functions' of this software with understated humor and precision, but it doesn't address the multitude of problems one will encounter while right in the middle of a delicate 'cut' or transition. The 'error' message pops up and literally shuts down your project. I thought it was just me until I visited the 'user to user' Adobe forum and discovered that many, MANY people experience the same frustration and ultimate problems with this program. Oh yes, I as well as the others have downloaded the '3.0.2' patch...not good enough as yet another 'error' will subsequently appear and mess it up. Sorry folks, the book is fantastic but the product is not. Adobe simply wants us to upgrade for yet more money. Not acceptable. Good luck!
Photoshop Element 5.0 for Dummies/Photoshop Premiere 3.0 for Dummies October 25, 2007
Both books that I ordered were handled in an excellent manner and arrived on the date specified. Very good documentation was provided as to the departure and arrival. I was impressed with the efficienty of the order. Thanks very much.
What a dissapointment ! April 12, 2007

I was looking for a manual for Premiere Elements 3.0 but this book doesn't cover this version. Maybe it is good for version 1.0
Helpful book, but doesn't reflect Premiere Elements 2.0 January 16, 2006
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
I bought this book because I found the Premiere Elements user guide less than helpful. Adobe Premiere Elements for Dummies does contain a lot of helpful information and tips, but my impression is that I'll need to read the book cover to cover rather than using it as a reference guide. Be aware that this book's screen shots do not reflect Premiere Elements 2.0. I don't know how different 2.0 is from previous versions, but this was a source of frustration for me when I was trying to find out how to "single step" through a clip.
