ADOBE PREMIERE PRO CC KEEPS CLOSING, CREATING NEW FILE

Hi all,
I'm a complete beginner to the software, I'm using it because I need a high mark in an university assignment and my Mac doesn't come with iMovie. I downloaded the 30 day trial through Adobe Cloud. It was working fine at first, now it becomes unresponsive and closes every 3 minutes or so. It then saves the project onto a new file, when I open that the same happens, I've tried saving the file as a different file once opening it, same thing.
Please help, I've tried changing the autosave option, still no help.
OS X YOSEMITE 10.10.3 on Macbook Pro 2011.
Please advise before I get a 2.2

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CC not opening an xml file created in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014

    Hello,
    I had created a project using Adobe Premiere CC 2014 which had some minor changes, which were going to be done by my boss, who uses Premiere Pro CC. However the project file of Adobe Premiere CC 2014 was not getting opened in Premiere Pro CC giving a message of type that as this file was created in a newer version of Premiere, it cannot be opened. After searching on this forum I found that we have to convert the Premiere Pro CC 2014 project file to XML file which can be then imported onto Premiere CC. So I created a XML file by selecting File-> Export -> Final Cut Pro XML and sent it to my boss. However even the xml file is not getting opened after being imported onto Premiere Pro CC giving an error of sorts, Cannot open the file since there is a problem with the codecs.
    Have I done something wrong? Please guide me since I am a beginner to the Adobe environment and would very much appreciate any help.
    Thank you.

    Indeed..... but are they fully documented, includuing Adobe's implementation of Multicam?  
    Collapsing them should really be no more than a day or two of work for an Adobe engineer and a day of beta testing.  Seriously.  Lots of people want this - it only takes a few minutes with google to find people struggling with this exact problem.   Premiere Pro Multicam --> Resolve.
    Since we do a lot of multicam work it's something that's important to us.
    Lots of other people never go near multicam, so I guess for them it's something they really don't care about.
    I currently have > 22 hours of multicam sequences that need primary colour correction and follow on grading..... resolve would be the best choice by far. 

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 crashes after using "File"-Menu

    Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5
    Hello,
    As of yesterday, can the "File" menu no longer operate. Other submenus can not be done. The program crashes after.
    I have been three times the program is uninstalled and reinstalled. No improvement.
    Yesterday I drove down the PC and there were 21 Windows updates, are there perhaps relationships?
    Who can help me?

    Update! - FIX...
    Spent about 5 hours working with a 2nd level Adobe Support tech and we were able to track down the error. You’re not going to believe this.
    Adobe Premiere was the only application affected by the bug. AF, Encore, Audition were all able to open a WAV file with no problem. Premiere would lock up (Not Responding) as soon as you tried to open a WAV file.
    Come to find out it was not an Adobe problem after all. I installed the Smart Sound plugins in June/July of this year and that plugin was the issue. Once it was removed I could import Wav files again.
    Smart Sound has upgraded the plugin and the new plugin works just fine.
    My thanks to the Adobe tech who stayed with the problem until it was resolved. And I suggested to the SmartSound tech that they find a better way to notify users when they find a bug of this magnitude. But you might guess how well that was revived.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CC Keeps Crashing

    The following are my computer Specs for my HP with Windows 7 Home Premium
    I am a Creative Cloud Subscriber and at this point I am a really unhappy customer.  I've tried re-installing the software, running as administrator, and still I am have nothing but crashes.  Most times I load it crashes on load up.  Other times it will load a project and then crash.  I sometimes also get into a project for a few minutes, then another crash.  It's getting to a point where I am so frustrated, because I have looked over these forums and everything I see the Staff members mentioning, I try...yet still it's not working.  Someone please help me figure out why it keeps crashing, their are no error messages given to me...all I get is the Windows 7 message that it has stopped working and then a close option. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone help me, I beg of you.  I am working in Adobe Audition too for recording and most times it works and doesn't crash, but I notice that sometimes it takes 3 attempts to start the program to run properly.  Once Audition CC is open I have had no trouble.  Now that I am working with video and audio...I need to be able to use Premiere.  I hope this isn't too long of a rant, but I am sincerely frustrated with this.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 (8.2) freezes up constantly on Mac OS X Yosemite

    After the latest update (no idea which one but the latest update) Premiere Pro cc just keeps freezing up constantly. There's no indication what brings it up but after different periods of time I just get the apple wheel and the entire program freezes up. I force quit and get the "sorry, a serious problem has occured", blabla. Sometimes it's in the middle of cutting a clip, sometimes it's while trimming. There isn't a single indication what causes it. At first I thought it was only because of using a multicam clip, but that's not the case anymore. I tried reducing memory to other apps, deleting preview files, deleting autosaves, turning off autosave altogether, deleting Adobe Premiere 8.0 preference file, changing permissions, basically everything in this post: Re: Adobe Premiere Pro CC keeps crashing... (Which now also seems totally neglected by Adobe).
    Believe me, there's hardly a thing I haven't tried.
    It's getting REALLY frustrating now and it's time something is done about this. Yes I know, "don't just say it's frustrating, explain the problem", but that fase has passed now. I'm paying for this product and it needs to work like it should.
    Also I know I'm not the only one who's having these problems.
    My specs are:
    OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
    MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)
    2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    One great reason to get a Mac only version of the post. It is never a good idea to post on a Windows post with Mac problems. And when threads get so long and unruly, the team can't focus on the actual issue so it doesn't get the attention it needs.
    Now that we have that sorted out...

    Very well, did things operate any differently on Mac OS X 10.9.x? Or did you have the same problem?

    - Yes this has worked before, the problems started either after creating a submix (which I've deleted, without result) and/or after updating to a newer version of Premiere CC;
    Definitely do not update Premiere Pro or OS X when in the middle of a project. Wait until it's complete. If you did either or both of these things, you can cause your project to become corrupt. After your current project is wrapped, test with a brand new project.

    I have heard of others having issues with OS X 10.10 and NVIDIA GPUs. My advice is to consider downgrading your OS if you continue to have issues. I believe I have avoided a lot of trouble by sticking to OS X 10.8.5.
    Previews AKA the Media Cache are your "render files." They can become corrupt, so it's a good idea to trash them when troubleshooting. You can locate them via your Preferences > Media. Click the Browse button.

    Okay I went through that menu (which I'm not eager to do, I prefer direct contact) and came across the CUDA setting inside the project settings. I've now enabled the "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA)", which might help.
    So were you set to "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only" or "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)" prior to changing it to "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA)?

    Testing with a brand new project is not an option. I have a deadline for my current project and it's impossible to start from scratch. What I did try is start a new project and importing the existing one, which didn't help so far.
    I was just wondering if you experienced the same issues in a new project. Any project you update to a new version is suspect, in my opinion. In the future, try to avoid doing that. If your current project is corrupt, I could see why you are having certain issues.
    For what it's worth, we had another user that exhibited similar issues until they started with a brand new Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 (8.2) file.
    Since importing your 8.1 file to a new 8.2 project isn't working, make sure to triple check permissions on all the Adobe folders I laid out in my blog post: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
    It's the #1 reason Mac users experience freezing and crashing. The other one I'd look at is that NVIDIA drivers are not working well with Yosemite. Finally, if you update a project across versions, it can become corrupt. Not much you can do about that except start a new project ASAP.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Freezes/Stops Responding No Matter What I Do. Any ideas?

    My Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 keeps freezing or not responding (pin wheel of death).
    This problem started happening 3 weeks ago.
    There is no one thing that triggers it, but it does seem to happen more often when trying to read my media from the media browser.  Sometimes I get an application error report, and other times I don't.
    This happens whether I start a new project, or work in an existing one.
    I would appreciate any help the community can provide.  I've tried just about everything I could find online from changing random system configurations like language to completely re-installing the software.

  • Why does Adobe Premiere Pro modify original footage/asset files (e.g. mov)? (CS6)

    Background:
    A colleague had given me a large 33Gb .mov for use in a project, I put this file on a backup drive.
    I made an identical copy of this 33Gb .mov file and placed it in a folder that I'd use to work on a Premiere Pro Project.
    I ran Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and dragged in the 33Gb .mov file into the Sequence (imported it)
    Premiere Pro CS6 started conforming the file.
    After it had finished, I noticed that it's Modified Date was just now i.e different to the Modified Date on the original copy of the file on the backup drive (see step 1)
    I ran a BeyondCompare check between the .mov file on the backup drive (see step 1) and the one that the Premiere Pro project was using (step 2, 3) and Beyond Compare reported they were different.
    I had initially thought it was unrelated file corruption of some kind, but I have checked this several times and got the same outcome, so it's definitely Premiere Pro deliberately modifying the file.
    So I am puzzled: these are supposed to be the same file.
    Why would there be a need for Adobe Premiere Pro to modify the footage?
    What does it do to the file?
    Would it not be better to create a separate file if necessary?
    I can accept this if that's how it works and it's good to know that it was Premiere Pro deliberately modifying the files and not corruption (so my hardware ought to be healthy). But it makes more sense to me if Premiere Pro made separate modified copies for its own use. Modifying the file as it does hinders my process for checking the integrity of backups; if the original asset footage files were the same as earlier copies then it would be easy to know that the backups are OK.
    Thoughts?

    Definitive Answer (I believe): It's all about this setting, "Write XMP ID To Files On Import" - which confirms that Adobe Premiere Pro is deliberately modifying the .mov file: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/preferences.html#WSE3BD4A43-7022-4fe6-97F5-95313 935347B
    These posts give some background as to why having this setting enabled would be beneficial: one benefit being to be able to skip conforming files by matching the conformed file with the original using the embedded XMP tag :-

  • Why are Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 source and program monitors playing each others footage?

    Why are Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 source and program monitors playing each others footage? I import my footage into the project like normal. I drag it to the source monitor on the left hand side to set in and out points then I drag it to the time line. The footage drops into the time line with no problem but when I go to play the footage in the time line it plays back on the source monitor and not on the program monitor like it is suppose to. Other times ill drag the clip to the time line and trim it there and it will be fine and show up on the program monitor.  Then ill go try to set a clip to have in and out points (which is suppose to show up in the source monitor) but it shows up in the program monitor. The clip is not even in the time line it should not be on that monitor! I have updated the program to the late update. I have re installed the program numerous times and I have even ran the Adobe Clean up program. Couldn't find much on this problem. Please help thank you! I have a PC. My computer is also way over the recommended minimum specifications to have the program installed on.

  • Final Cut Pro 7 keyboard shortcuts for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows

    Attached is the file that contains the Final Cut Pro 7 keyboard shortcut set for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows.
    This file was mistakenly left out of the Premiere Pro CS5 installer, so people who tried to switch to this keyboard shortcut set were unable to do so.
    Unzip the file and then install the .kys file by copying it here:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5\Keyboard Shortcuts\en_US
    (where C:\ may be replaced by the a different volume if you installed somewhere other than the C drive, and en_US may be replaced by another locale ID)
    This file was included in the Premiere Pro CS5.5 installer, so manually installing this file is only necessary for Premiere Pro CS5.
    For information about keyboard shortcuts, including how to customize them, see this page:
    "Keyboard shortcuts"

    By the way, Mac users don't need to update this file, it's for Windows users only.
