Can't drag video from source monitor to timeline

I have been working a few years with Premiere Pro (now CC) and this never happened to me before.
I can't drag video from the source monitor to the timeline. What is happening? The sound can be dragged but there is a hand with a 'no sign' for the video??? How can I solve this problem without starting over again?

Please dont double post!!!!

Dropping audio when dragging clip from Source Panel to Timeline

I have having issues with audio being dropped when dragged from the Source Panel to the Timeline. Audio is present in the Source Panel and plays great along with video, but when I drag the selected clip to the Timeline it drops the audio.

Premiere Pro CC: Drag from source monitor to timeline

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why this does not work. I can only drag video from the Source Monitor into my timeline. But when I try to drag audio, it just shows me a stop sign and no errors. So I can't really figure out why this is happening.
The workaround for this is to make the clip in the project window into it's own sequence, cut the clip and it's audio, and paste into the working timeline. However I don't think this is a good way of working and it's really annoying. Tried looking for results on how to fix this and only found ways of going around the problem instead of getting the problem resolved.

How funky, thanks Kevin. This solved the issue, I knew it had to be something extremely small that just kept bugging me.

Can't see video in Source Monitor, or play it in Program Monitor

Hi there
I have been using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 fine for months now, doing the same tasks on a daily basis. However yesterday morning the computer crashed whilst editing some footage and now it doesn't function properly.
I have re-installed the software and this hasn't fixed issues, and also performed a system restore which fixed some but not all of them.
The main problem is I can now import video into the project and drop it onto the timeline (which I couldn't before the system restore) but now I can't view the original footage in the Source Monitor, making editing tricky, and it doesn't play continuosly in the Source Monitor, only giving a still image wherever I leave the playhead.
I can hear the audio and it plays without any breaks, it's just the video.
Can anyone help?

Can anyone help? I use it for work and basically I can't do any more work until it's fixed.
Things I've tried:
Uninstall and reinstall
System restore
Checking opacity on clip
Checking which workspaces are open
importing old footage and other formats
opening old projects
updating codecs
emptying media cache

Question about going from source monitor into timeline prior to going into program monitor?

In FCP you had to take a clip from the equivalent of the Source Monitor to the Program Monitor and either do an insert or overwite edit with the clip from there. I see that Premiere has insert and overwrite buttons built right into the Source monitor window. Are there any issues with doing it all from here and not dragging them into the Program Monitor first?
Thanks.

Typical NLE behavior is to go from the Source Monitor to the Timeline. The Program Monitor shows whatever is in the timeline. If FCP forced you to go from Source to Program, and then to timeline, that is very unusual behavior for an NLE since, again, the Program monitor is supposed to show you what's in the timeline.
What PP now allows you to do is drag a clip from Source to Program, but this will simultaneously add the clip to the timeline because, as I said, the Program Monitor's purpose is to show you what's in the timeline. With most any NLE out there, if it ain't in the timeline, it won't show up in the Program Monitor. And if it shows up in the Program Monitor, then it must already be in the timeline.

Link sound and video in source monitor

Hi,
I'm using CS3. I have a mpeg video clip and a wav sound file on the timeline. The video / audio is not multiplexed. They are linked on the timeline. What I'd like to do is link the video and audio and go into the source monitor with the material.. so I can edit subclips etc from source monitor and put into a new video layer on timeline.
When I put both video and soundfile into source panel , edit video, and drag onto timeline only the video goes to timeline.
Is there a way to link them in the source monitor so both video and sound can be edited to timeiline?
Thanks
Rod

Rod,
I feel your pain. Many years ago, my cousin came to me to design a Web site for her trout ranch. Fine, no problem. I sent her the normal assignment list of questions: audience, their specific demographic, intent of Web site, history, services, etc., etc. Never got a thing back, but tons of e-mails on her ideas on how the site should look and the sites that it should link to. "OK, those are useful bits of info, but lets get back to the questions. I need those first." More sites to link to, and a couple of shreds of paper with ideas. "What's that on the bar napkins?" "Oh, that's the history of the ranch." I traveled to her ranch and shot for several days, and sent the select images on DVD for her to do a final edit. She sent those to Orvis, to use in a calender, without even credits! Luckily, I had not sent the chromes. She contacted me and asked if I had more stock shots, as Orvis wanted to save money on having someone shoot for them... Uh, not quite.
Finally got some useful ideas, and did a complete layout of the site. I kept pressing for the "Who We Are" material, and got more napkins and backs of envelopes with some real Joycean writings. I took all of that info to a copywriter friend, who owed me for some photoshoots. He worked for a few weeks, e-mailing me lists of questions. I FWD'ed those to cousin, and never got a reply. When he was done, I sent the copy to her - not even close. I asked her to write it all down in a TXT, or DOC file and send it to me. A few weeks later, I got legal sheet of lined paper with words that would have made Kafka ponder.
Still, I plugged along, and sent the complete layout. "Where's the canoe rental?" "No one ever mentioned canoe rentals." "Where's the horse boarding?" "What horse boarding? When did that get added?" On it went. I finally managed to do a mock-up of the site, which was now about 60 pages, and linked to over 300 sites around the globe. Well, now there was an espresso stand on the highway, a dog boarding concession and a half-dozen other additions. Plus, the interiors of all of the rooms had been redone, since I shot them. I built the changes in Photoshop, and "redecorated" each room, per the descriptions of those decorations.
Even then, the Who We Are was not right, and incomplete. After four months of work, I issued an ultimatum - I am done, until you get me the info requested in that first form, with a BTW - here's another copy. [Sounds a bit like Harm's 5th request for necessary info.]
A month elapsed, and then I got an e-mail. A friend of a friend had designed a wonderful site for her in trade-out. I went to the URL. It was a two pager with zero links to anything. It did have a Who We Are, but it read like Lawrence Ferlinghetti.
Next e-mail was "would you be my Webmaster and update my site weekly?" My answer was that because I was so busy, I was not the right person for that job. I taught her Acrobat, and did add a few PDF pages for her, but that was it.
In the end, it was hard labor and little fun. The site was passable, but nothing like she stated was necessary. I do not know if she ever updated any of the PDF's, but highly doubt it. I never even got a thank you note from Orvis either. Loads of fun. Remember my comment in another thread on the "Three Reasons for Taking an Assignment?" Could have been fun, but it was not.
I wish you luck, as I have "been there - done that," and it ain't no fun.

Open video in Source monitor from extension / ExtendScript?

Hi,
I want to write a panel extension which browses a remote asset management system, downloads proxy videos, and shows them in the Source monitor; similar to the Media Browser panel.
However, I can't find any way of getting a local file to open in the source monitor. The script functions I have tried either expect a Premiere project, or will open the file in QuickTime Player.
Does this functionality exist in Premiere?
- Matt

Oops, yes, meant to post it in the SDK forum.

Can't drag video into timeline premiere cc

Been working with PP CC since it came out and have had almost no problems. Now I have a head scratcher. I can't drag a video clip from the project panel to the sequence. The audio comes but the video won't. All I get is the close hand with a line through it when I hover over any of the video tracks. The clips play fine in the source monitor but still cant drag it from source to sequence either. Tried this with clips from several projects and cameras but no go. Started a new project, different name, folder and footage, still have the problem.
[Text formatting corrected.]

Can I import video from a Firewire camcorder using the Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter?

I have an older camcorder that has a firewire interface. My new iMac does not have any firewire ports. Can I import video from the camcorder using a Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter or is the Thunderbold adapter only used for hard drives and displays?

Rather than an adapter, I would suggest you purchase a 4 pin to 9 pin Firewire 800 cable to run from the camera to the Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter. Those FW 400 to 800 adapters frequently do not work so well for importing video in my experience.
The Firewire cables are pretty inexpensive if you get them online. For example try Monoprice.

Can i drag files from one computer to another

can i drag files from one computer to another

You can, if you want to transfer files between macs I advies to use AirDrop(wi-fi needs to be enabled). Use shift+command+R, this will take you to your AirDrop in finder. Do this on both computers and you should see the user of the mac where you want to transfer files to.
If the seconds computer is a Windows, you can alway use a USB Drive, External Drive, through Dropbox(install dropbox on both computers and download the files that you need on the second computer) and if the file is small even mail.

Jeroen

How can I transfer videos from my PC to my iPhone's CARRETE? (Not to videos)

i Would like to copy some videos from my PC to post them on Instagram but i can only select videos from "photos/carete", and when i copy the videos to the iphone they apear in videos (with the movies).
Any idea on how to copy to CARRETE?

If you are referring to the Camera Roll, there is no way for you to sync video from the computer to the Camera Roll. And, as you have already discovered, when you attempt to sync video to the phone it appears in the video app, which is where they are supposed to appear. The only way for video to appear in the Camera Roll is for it to have been taken by the iPhone and not deleted from the Camera Roll.

How can i send video from my iphone 4s to email

How can i send video from my i phone 4s to an email address?

Mail attachment size is determined by your ISP, & limit that size to betweem 10MB's & 25MB's, depending on ISP. So, unless it is a very small video, you won't be able to.
