It is my understanding that the library continues to be in a separate download. But that does not explain the presence of the menus.

I also understand that, returning to the method of several versions ago (CS2?), this will also be true for installations from disks.

I have not yet installed CS6, Can someone who has let us know?

Where, at the bottom of each post, it says "was this helpful", we need a new option: "informative yet irritating". I guess I need to reinstall Premiere Elements for now.

I have the same problem. I didn't know that the package wasn't complete when I purchased CS6. I need the library content to finish a project so I went back in CS 5.1 (still installed on my drive) but all the library content is gone. Is there a way I can have access my content? Did CS6 overwrited something?

There's nothing. I went to reinstall the Adobe Encore CS5.1 Library and in the installer, I have an "X" mark at the right of "Adobe Encore CS5.1 Library 4.1 GB" and it says "A newer version of this product is already installed". I can't install it.

That is worrisome.

Is your CS6 the cloud? Or a traditional (perpetual) license.

What do you see at this path:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Encore CS5.1\Library

Ann/Bill, you have bothinstalled CS6? Do you still have your old libraries?

At least one other post suggests that installing CS6 is deleting the CS5.1 library. Brother!

It seems the CS6 functional content installer does removes the previous 5.1 FC from the machine(although the path at which CS5.1 and CS6 libraries are installed are different, 5.1 FC is at C:\program files (x86) and 6.0 FC is at C:\Program files)

The solution to this issue would be - copy the cs6 library from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Encore CS6\Library and place it at another loacation and rename it.

Now uninstall the CS6 Content and reinstall the 5.1 FC using the disc or the downloded FC you have. In this way you will recover back your 5.1 FC and can also use the 6.0 FC by pointing Encore to its location. I tried it and this works.

Alternately, you can use the 5.1 FC for CS6 by pointing the Encore CS6 library to its location.

I would also suggest that if you have the 5.1 functional content already then you can wait for the full downloadable FC because the CS6 provides only a limited set of menus.

And this problem will no longer be faced once the downloadable full version of CS6 FC will be available.

Can you please provide a best estimate date as to the availability of this content?

Thankful I found this thread. My CS5.5 Library was still intact so I created a new folder in CS6 which didn't have a LIBRARY folder.

I copied and pasted the files from from CS5.5 LIBRARY folder and everything works okay.

I do not know a date as yet but I think it will be available pretty soon.

Vola!

ok, here is the real issue...the "content" templates pretty much suck from Adobe anyways...not super great. Maybe this will change one day.

Download the option that is available and just modify one of those menus. It will have the conventions in place. Starting with a template can help by gettng the right size for your start.

And go here:

So... any news about when it will be available? I bought Adobe Creative Suite 6 Production Premium CS6 on may 7 and there is still no library content and I can't use Premiere Pro because it can't yet encode files from my XF100.

Not having the Additional Functional Content is not how Adobe usually does things, but who knows what all was going on?

All right; time for some wild speculation.

For several cycles, the Encore library was separated from the traditional "functional content," which had been on a different disk for optional install, and put into the main program install. Well, except for those who installed from downloads, in which the installs were like the traditional - from a separate, optional source.

This cycle (CS6) it is back to an optional separate install, BUT it also appears to be, in its preliminary versions at least, a very reduced library. (This might be because it was all missing, and this is the part they rushed to add back.) But with problems with "the installer" I think they had a problem with the system that was created to deliver the new, combined functional content.

Obviously a huge problem, and probably a big embarrasment for someone.

No reason to wait. I was conrfused in my last post here, and the full content can be installed.

Go to this link (same as post above).

Look down the page for "Additional Solution: Install the Resource Central library content."

Follow the instructions there; all the Encore content will be there.

Read the directions under the "Install Resource Central." When you  unzip EncoreContentEnglish, you have a second "zipped" folder (.7z). Step 1 and 2 under that section are both "extracts."

Congrats!

I have downloaded and extracted the premiere 6 content files however, during installation I get this message that a pending shutdown has been detected and to quit the install.  There is no pending shutdown can anybody help?  Can you help please.  Thank you
