Premiere CS4 files won't reopen after being hung up

Although I'm relatively new at Premiere, it seems strange that twice with 2 different Premiere CS4 files, I get files I cannot reoppen after I export them using the Media Encoder. My i-mac is new and has 8 gig of ram and the processor is a 3.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
So here I am stuck with 2 incomplete Premiere files that I can't do additional editing to because they won't open - they start to open quickly but hang up just before the progress bar is complete and remains that way before I force quit 5 minutes or so later. It seems that Encore has hung things up and I can't risk loosing files I spend hours on.
Any help appreciated

Hello all,
The first thing I tried worked. This was opening an older Premiere file and importing the Premiere file that wouldn't open.
What happened originally was when I exported the Premiere file (Media Encoder), I immediatedly saved the Premiere file after it finished exporting - it was during this saving process that it became hung up/frozen and wouldn't reopen. This time when I exported, I saved it before I exported and immediately quit when the exporting was done. It reopened without a problem.
Thanks for your help - appreciate it

  • PDF file won't open after saving it from the web.  get error message file is damaged.

    My PDF files won't open after saving them to Docs from the web.  I get error message file is damaged. Can someone help me correct this problem on Mac Air w Mountain Lion? 

    I wonder if the image is being embedded somehow and there is not enough scratch disk space to render the file. Just a hunch. Check your hardrive to see how much free space is available. Also, check your RAM and see if you can upgrade ( install more, install much more ) to max out as much RAM as possible. At a minimum, check for fragmentation and do a "Correct Permissions" via Apple's Disk Utility.
    But, weird things start happening when a font becomes corrupt. Not that one is, but it may be in your best interest to acquire a font management utility like Font Agent PRO ( if you don't have one already ). A good font management program can detect and disable corrupt fonts.
    CS1 and OSX10.4 should be fairly compatable with the 7500, but you may have gone as far as you can go. Think about upgrading to a G4 or a G5. I believe the 7500 was pre G3 ( which I think is the minimum requirements for CS1 ).

    I use the free Unarchiver: http://unarchiver.c3.cx/unarchiver

    However, as you have been told, normally Windows executable files cannot be opened or used on Macs.

  • Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days.

    Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days due to power cable breaking. I got a new cable and it still will not charge. Is my phone broken in any way? What can I do to fix this?

    Hey TalkBack12,
    These are the recommended troubleshooting steps I found for when your battery does not charge:
    Battery does not charge
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    via: iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
    Since you got a new cable, I would concentrate on trying a cable other than the new one.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Sincerely,

  • AME WON'T LOAD PREMIERE CS4 FILES

    Probably been answered somewhere ... but, I'm playing beat the clock (who isn't?) ... and gotta find a solution or work-around, and FAST.
    PREMIERE CS4 WON'T EXPORT TO ADOBE MEDIA ENCODER.
    It goes through the motions; but never actually loads the elements to render.  It just hangs after you tell it to "Start Queue."  "Loading (project name)" just sits there, and I eventually get a "non responsive program" notice.
    I'm running 4.0.2.002.
    My usual work-around is to take the project into AE and render there ... but, this is a multi-camera project and they don't enport to AE.
    HELP!!!

    Welcome to the forums
    gotta find a solution or work-around, and FAST
    Then you need to call Adobe Tech Support and get it sorted out in real time.
    Otherwise try these troubleshooting tips.

  • Indesign CS4 files won't open in CS6

    Installed CS6 on new MBP. Moved CS4 design files over to new computer.
    Files won't open in CS6. Get the following message:
    Cannot open "filename.indd". The file "filename.indd" is damaged (Error code: 4).
    This happens with ALL of my CS4 Indesign files. (*Note: they DO open on old MBP)
    I tried exporting one as IDML on old machine - same thing.
    Any suggestions? I was told all older version files will open in NEW CS versions. True?

    The Voodoo is in the basics. - turn it off...turn it on?
    I just quit InDesign CS6 and reopened...now all of my files are opening fine in CS6!
    @Bob - just to double check - moved files from old mbp - onto external hd - then brought them over to new mbp...is there a better way?

  • Dissolves made in Premiere CS4 lost in "bridge" to After Effects

    I have a number of video dissolves in my Premiere CS4 video.  I click on (forget the exact command since I am not in front of my After Effects computer) "replace with After Effects composition"
    In after effects I see the dissolves are gone.
    What is the best work flow to ensure the dissolves are retained.
    Note:  This is HDV footage.
    Here is one thing I tried to do unsuccessfully:
    When the replace with After Effects composition lost the dissolves, I tried just exporting the video.  I tried doing a quicktime export, but Premiere did not allow me to do a high quality HDV export.  The video was pixilated,etc.  (In After Effects I could choose Quicktime / Animation /Millions of colors" but I don't see that exact option (millions of colors or millions of colors PLUS) in the Premiere export dialogue.
    I see two AVI export options.  Windows AVI and Uncompressed AVI -- would that be a better choice than quicktime?
    I have a windows pc.
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Rowby:
    It's a bit confusing, but it's there. If in the Adobe Media Encoder dialog you get in Premiere Pro, you pick Quicktime as the Format, Animation as the codec and then set codec settings to "32 bit", it will render RGB+Alpha. Even if it doesn't state that clearly.
    If you have Premiere Pro and After Effects as part of Production Premium, you can just drag the Premiere Pro sequence from PPro's project panel to AE's project panel, and this will show as a clip/layer in AE which is dynamically linked to the Premiere Pro sequence - any changes you perform in PPro are updated automatically in AE. No need to export a video file at all. But again, this doesn't work if you got PPro and AE as individual products.

  • Premiere CS4 - File Linking Problems

    For some reason Premiere is mixing up my imported After Effects CS4 files.  For example, while Im working it will suddenly associate my After Effects file named "SceneA" with the file named "SceneB".  If I try importing "SceneB" again it brings in "SceneA" instead.  It will do this with several of my files and switch everything up.  Im only working with 4 After Effects files and am scared I'll have 20 or so files and it will start mixing those up, which will be a disaster.
    Anyone else experiencing this?

    I import several files straight into after effects for editing (multi tga, jpeg, psd, etc), then import the AE file straight in PrPro for ading text and organizing.  To work around the problem I had to put each AE file into different folders to keep PrPrp from mixing them up.  Never had this problem with CS3, but doesnt sound like anyone else is experiencing this, which leads me to believe its something with my computer, I dont know.
    I am running windows XP and have a second operating system (also windows XP) installed.  Had to work around a virus that took over my computer.  Could this be a contributing factor I wonder?  Would delete the 2nd operating system but it wont, so cant test that theory.

  • Picture files only partially display after being published

    Recently .jpg and .png pictures I have created only partially display after being published.  I've tested it using Paint, Publisher and Gimp with mixed results. The pictures display correctly when I view them locally on my pc.
    Here are the test pictures I made in each program:
    http://www.bgchamber.net/images/GimpTest.jpg
    http://www.bgchamber.net/images/PublisherTest.jpg
    http://www.bgchamber.net/images/PaintTest.jpg
    The only pictures that fully display are those that were taken from a camera, but after I resized one in paint, it also didn't display properly. My question really is, is this an issue with Microsoft Expression Web or with the server hosting the files?

    Publisher is NOT a photo editing program. Neither is Word. Nor is Paint.
    You need a real, and simple, photo editing program. Paint.NET is a good, free one. I find GIMP cumbersome (but it's batch processing is handy). And your graphics aren't being created and saved properly. For example, the events.html page has graphics on it
    that total well over 3 MegaBytes! Pity the poor soul with a wireless connection. The graphics on the events.html page are largely illegible, and as such serve no real purpose (and make the site look bad).
    Let's take an example...on the home page gallery is a graphic for the 2015 Chamber Scholarship. It's displayed at 525 x 340 pixels, yet the image sitting on the server (and which must be downloaded by the visitor) is 1275 x 825 pixels. So you have an unnecessarily
    large graphic taking space on the server, having to download to the visitor's computer at full size, and then be shrunk by the browser to only 17% of the original area. That file should be created and saved in a proper graphics program at the final size you
    plan to use (and in this case, use PNG format). The larger file takes at least 5 times the storage space on the server as a properly sized file (and takes 5 times as long to download and upload).
    I've superimposed the display size on top of the full size and shrunk them down to display here in the forum. See below.
    All the graphics that I have checked on your site have the same problem, and if your site has been up a long time and you haven't cleaned out the old files on the server, you may have run out of server space, which would corrupt the new files.
    Smaller files will also upload faster and more reliably. Plus--browsers stink at resizing graphics. Do that in a proper graphics program to get the best quality.
    Use JPG for photos, GIF for hard-edge graphics with few colors and no gradations/shading, and PGN for hard-edge graphics with full color and gradations/shading. And make sure you are saving the images in the proper version of the format (RGB for web).

  • Windows 7 64 bit won't resume after being locked

    Hello,
    My Windows 7 Pro computer will not resume after being locked.
    I use a Domain controller based on Windows server 2008 R2, and if I login with my username on any other PC, I do not have this Problem.
    When I lock it to go out for some reason, it won't resume at all. I left it on the welcome screen for an hour or so, and it didn't start.
    Do you guys have any idea what might be causing this ?
    Thank you very much for your help

    If this behavior is not exhibited on any other systems in your environment, I believe it's safe to assume the issue is with the local client.
    First things first: check that you have the latest drivers for your system. I know this seems like a canned answer, but I've seen hundreds of cases where a missing or legacy disk controller driver causes all manner of strange behavior on an otherwise healthy
    system.
    Years ago, when SSDs first starting becoming popular, I purchased a handful of them from a specific vendor. We started seeing issues with resuming from S3 sleep that confounded us for months. We found out that the vendor used a specific brand and chipset
    on their SSD controllers that wound up causing firmware faults when Windows was resumed; even to the point that we had to shut down the PC, unplug it, and let the caps drain before we could boot it again!
    We wound up replacing the drives with a more mainstream/popular brand and the issues never happened again, but the problem was hardware related. Your post reminded me of those few months of confusion.
    Check that all of your drivers are up to date, esp. disk and video, and don't rely on the Microsoft generic drivers. If you can find the drivers for your mobo/gfx cards, prefer that route.

  • Keynote '08 files won't open after cable replacement

    After what I've read, I'm so glad I didn't have the Apple Store install Maverick when the cable had to be replaced in my MacBook Pro as a work around to a possible drive failure. I thought I had successfully reinstalled everything via disk and back up restoration, but no, my Keynote '08 files won't open in the original program that created them and need "a newer version." Not acceptable. Can someone help me with this? I teach and need my original files for editing!

    I presume you mean Keynote version 4, part of the iWork 08 suite, (there is no version 08)
    1 -  Delete the complete iWork 08 installation, you must use an application removal tool to do this correctly.
    2 -  (Appcleaner from Mac Update is free and works perfectly for this)
    3 -  Re-install iWork from the Installation CD and test

  • Display won't sleep after being in suspend once.

    When rebooting the computer, the display sleeps after set interval and can manually be put to sleep using shift+ctrl+eject.
    However if the computer goes to sleep or I myself close the lid to make it sleep, the display won't sleep again.
    The display won't sleep after set interval in power settings and when I press shift+ctrl+eject the keyboard backlit turns off but the screen stays on.
    The only way to make it sleep is to close the lid.
    I have tried resetting SMC and NVRAM but to no avail.
    I have the first generation aluminium macbook.
    Does anyone else have this problem?
    I have had this problem both in 10.6 and 10.8

  • Both Firefox & Thunderbird won't reopen after closing. require reboot

    When I close Firefox or Thunderbird, they do not reopen later. Dialog box says they are still running, but process won't close in task manager. System requires reboot to get back in

    Maybe your security (Anti-virus) software is checking files while Firefox is starting and takes so much time that Firefox can't access them and decides to skip loading those locked files. If that happens with sqlite database files like places.sqlite then bookmarks won't work properly. A second start works because the AV software had already checked the file. So you need to check the rules for Firefox in your security software.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
