After updating Premiere to 4.1 - XDCAM EX error- files offline?

Hi!
I have a problem; after updating Premiere CS4 ver. 4.0.1. to version 4.1 files in projects are offline. There are some files (for example, CG animation in other formats as quick time) that are on timeline normally, but all XDcame EX footage is offline. That usually happened with external disks changing letter names, but the letter for disk is the same.
What to do? The problem is that I have about 1.000 clips and they're all structured in subfolders, that means that each file is in its own folder due to xdcam EX file structure and it's quite impossible to link each of them manually (or it will take 2 days only clicking on every file).
Agrhhh... once again dealing with Adobe's "improvements".
One more thing; when trying to link file, i get "The importer reported a generic error"!?
And I've just found out that there's no xdcam ex presets anymore in Premiere. How to get them back?
Thanks,
Ziga

Hi!
Well, after 4 hours of problem-solving I figured out that the main issue was that 4.1 didn't support xdcam-ex anymore. Furthermore, when reinstalling premiere back to 4.0.1 it couldn't open a project (looks like 4.1 did something to it I guess), so final solution now was to open an auto-save project, which has just opened.
Probably there is an issue with production premium to be first installed as a trial. The solution might be to uninstall all the programs and clean the registry and install it back directly with serial number. But it takes time and I have to finish project today.
I'm really confused about Adobe's solutions in last few years; every new file/software/update they provide solves 1 old problem and gives 10 new problems.
Now it's a big mess but luckily the project is now open at least. I really do not recommend anyone to update to 4.1 because of huge problems you might have with files, at least not to do it during the work on a project.
Regards,
Ziga

    Sound like something messed up somehow. Maybe you can consider reinstalling the drivers again? @28.86.2.0

    Earlier albums were edited with the same cover.
    or 3

    I think I have the answer.
    I was experiencing the exact same problem. I tried lots of different things but what I think works is to exclude your iTunes folder from Spotlight. Open the System Preference for Spotlight, click on the Privacy tab, and then drag your iTunes folder (in your user/Music folder) into that window pane. In fact, I think it is faster when I am fixing tags!
    Let me know if it works for you too.

  • Some sequences are lost after updated premiere pro 2014

    I downloaded trial ver of pp cc2014 last month and now got updated to 8.1 . before i had trouble with opening file  it was newer version of premiere pro edited and i couldn't get my file opened up again untill i have updated premiere cc 2014 in adobe application manager. and now i could get my file opened. but the main sequence is lost, i couldn't even find it in project panel either. i clicked open project choose the one i have edited before which is a month ago. and it says audio filter missing and bunch of codes. Whats happening here? please help!

    Go to HD/Library/Quictime and delete all .component files. It appears that the correct procedure is to delete all QT components and everything so far works. I have to do this every time I run after effects or Premiere Pro, and remember to put them back in again after shutting down software. Any ideas why this is happening folks?

  • After updates I am getting 'The required index.xml file is missing'

    I updated Pages to 5.5.1 after updating MacOS to Yosemite 10.10.1. Since then, when I click on a file I get the message 'The required index.xml file is missing' I can still open the file by dragging it to the Pages Icon in the Dock but it seems like the files should open. What is going on or what did I do wrong?

    You have two versions of Pages on your computer:
    Pages v5.5.1 - /Applications
    Pages ’09 v4.? - /Applications/iWork '09
    On Yosemite with Pages v5.5.1, its default file save format is a Single File (compressed folder with .pages extension). When you attempt to open this file with Pages '09, you get the dialog, "The required index.xml file is missing." and the document couldn't be opened.
    Pages v5.5.1 also offers a Package file format (folder) obtained via File > Advanced > Change File Type > Package. When Pages ’09 tries to open this document, you get the now familiar dialog, "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."
    In order to access either of these documents in Pages ’09, you will need to first export to Pages '09 format from Pages v5.5.1.

  • After updating to 8.3, Photos app pixelates TIFF files

    After updating to 8.3 on two of our iPads all the TIFF pix in the Photos app appear pixelated when enlarged. Thumbnails look normal as do all the JPEG pix. The problem is the same regardless if the images are in camera roll or separate folders.Repeated hard shutdowns did not resolve the problem. We cannot find any discussions about (or even references to) this problem online. Maybe because most people work exclusively with JPEG files?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm having the issue that the person I called can not hear me unless I put on speakerphone. 

  • ** URGENT: ** MEDIA IS OFFLINE for Mp4 files after updating Premiere Pro CC to 8.1

    Hi there,
    I upgraded recently to Premiere pro CC 2014 and I am working on a project that is already late. 
    I was having some small issues then I thought that after upgrading to latest version everything would be fine.
    I just started Premiere and opened my project and had an error message, just like this guy
         Premiere Pro CC 2014 seems to  Corrupt projects created with earlier versions
    Then I deleted the preference files and the project could be opened again.
    But the MP4 files haven't opened and has the imagem MEDIA OFFLINE
           (and I have LOTS of MP4 files that were working absolutely fine before)
    I tried to make links again but it didn´t worked.
    I tried to drag and drop MP4 files it didn´t worked too. (unsuported media file)
    I renamed the folder ADOBE from \user\appdata\local and roaming  twice.
    I tried to start with SHIFT ALT to delete preferences againa - didn´t worked too.
    I tried to reinstall Quicktime.
    I tried to reinstall K-Lite codec pack.
    I REALLY need your help before formating and starting everything from scratch.
    Thanks and best regards.

    So if you got here looking for an answer, this is what worked for me:
       (se você quer uma resposta em portugues me avise)
    - Exit all adobe software (including Cloud)
    - Delete preference folder (adobe) in my documents.
    - Rename Adobe folder from \userfolder\appdata\roaming and \userfolder\appdata\local to old.adobe
    - Uninstall any codec package that you might have installed
    - Uninstall Premiere via add/remove programs
    - Look for *.xmp files and remove all
    - Remove rendered files too from your project folder.
    - Restart computer
    - Use a Registry utility to clean up your computer from traces (I use Glary Utilities)
    - Install Premiere Pro CC
    - Restart computer
    - Install Quicktime 7
    - Restart computer
    - Everything should be fine by now.
    =)
    Good luck!

  • Can't get any video playback in program or source monitor after updating premiere

    I'm having a problem I hope someone might be able to shed some light on. I just updated my premiere pro cc to v8.2 Everything Worked fine before I updated.  Now I can't get any video to play back. I can hear the audio in my timeline but the video does not show up. When I export though everything is fine and the video is there. So basically I cant get any video to play in my program monitor or my source monitor.

    Please double-check that the same sequence that's open in the current Timeline is also loaded in Program Monitor. We recently discovered a bug that resulted in the Program Monitor having a different sequence loaded than the active Timeline. The scenario in which this occurs is as follows:
    Open two sequences (or more) in the same panel, say Seq_A and Seq_B.
    Set focus on Seq_B.
    Maximize the Project Panel.
    Double-click Seq_A in the Project Panel.
    At this point, the Project Panel reverts to its normal size and the Program Monitor loads Seq_A, but Seq_B remains in front of Seq_A. This disconnect persists if you set focus on the Seq_B Timeline; when Seq_B is played with things in this state, you will hear that sequence's audio, but the Program Monitor will remain static.
    This is not likely to explain your situation, but it's worth ruling out before pursuing further troubleshooting.

  • "the file has an un-supported compression type"  appears today after updating Premiere Pro CC

    Started computer, Opened up TX ATTO project today and portions of an existing project is off line after project opens, and does not ask you to relink as it is opening.
    A segment of a sequence in the timeline is Off Line. Go to Relink, then find clip, select, then “the file has an un-supported compression type” appears as you select the correct clip to “relink”. Will not let you relink. Fun Fun
    I did nothing but edit yesterday and e-mail. Nothing new or opened, except update CC PP. The clips that it need to link with are there.

    MTS files, from a SONY FS100 camera. First time we have seen this occurrence with multiple boxes running PP CC.
    I tried some just basic tests.
    It was only one clip. So I copied it to the desk top, renamed it something different and it relinked that specific clip thru the entire timeline. Weird. Something with the clip name with in the project got corrupt, because even the specific back up  of the RAW media clip on our server said the exact same error.
    Problem solved.
    Thank you for responding!

  • After updating Firefox I keep getting a 3259 error message trying to download songs from I Tunes

    After using Firefox for quite some time after one of the updates, I can no longer download songs from ITunes, it gives me an error message 3259. ITunes says it is coming from my software. Any suggestions?

    Not there aren't any special settings for this. You just use the Open In feature to save the document into Pages. You could have a font in the document that Pages doesn't like, maybe something that you copied and pasted from somewhere into the document that went corrupt. But there is nothing special about the way that you save a Word document into Pages. You save it like you save any document or file into a compatible app.

  • Lost my messages after update, but I see them in profile INBOX file. How to restore?

    After one of the latest TB updates the option "Never delete messages" (translating from RUssian, dont how how in original) in the "Sync and store" section of profile options had been set to "Delete all except for last 200". Nobody changed that settings.
    All my messages except for last 200 had been deleted from the inbox folder and mail server.
    I see my messages in INBOX file ib the TB profile. But I cant restore it.
    How can I restore by messages from INBOX file?

    I have a similar problem. One day last month when I turned my computer on, I found a screen telling me that Windows was 'repairing the disc'. I let it get on with it, but later discovered two things: first, that the computer no longer allowed me to set Firefox as my default browser - each time I opened Firefox, it asked me if I wished to set it as default, but clicking the button produced no response; second, when I opened Thunderbird I found that all of the (many!) messages in my Inbox prior to that date had disappeared.
    I explored my profile, just as Timerlan had done, and found two things.
    First, the profile name has a second stop between the random string of characters and the word 'default', so it reads as '.*./********'''..'''default'. If I right click 'rename' and remove the extra stop, Thunderbird will not open; I get an error message telling me that 'Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible'.
    Second, if I open the profile and then click 'Mail' I see six folders: local folders, local folders.sbd, pop3.blueyonder.co.uk, pop 3.blueyonder.co-1.uk, pop 3.virgin media.com and smart mailboxes.
    Local Folders has all the folders and subfolders that I've created to store messages I wish to keep; these folders and their contained messages open up normally when I open Thunderbird - thank goodness! blueyonder.co.uk is my email address and was the name my ISP formerly used for its server; the ~-1 variant dates, I believe, from the time that my hard drive failed and the computer shop had some difficulty restoring my data; and pop3. virginmedia.com is the address of the server that the ISP now uses, and as such is shown in my Thunderbird settings.
    When I open these pop3 folders, I find that each of them has an inbox.mozmsgs folder. The blueyonder.co.uk one has a few dozen messages; the one in in the ~-1 folder is empty; and the one in the virginmedia.com folder has a large number of messages, which would seem to be the ones that have disappeared and that I wish to retrieve, and obviously the next step is to try Told-Hall's suggestion to see if I can import those messages.
    However, when I try to first back up my profile as he recommends by using MozBackup , I get a message saying that the profile is corrupted (which figures!) and the process is terminated.
    Would it be sufficient to use the copy/paste procedure to save the profile elsewhere before attempting this procedure?

  • After updating Bridge & PS, still unable to view CR2 files from Canon M3

    I cannot view CR2 Raw files from the Mark III on Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CS6 to convert into TIF and JPG files for a client. I have updated all of my Adobe programs, restarted, and the files are still not showing up for me. Help please!

    Thank you for elaborating.
    Your system should absolutely be opening those files.  Any of the versions of ACR (Adobe Camera Raw Plug-in) that run with Photoshop 13.0.6 can and will open those files if properly installed, that includes the current version, ACR 8.6.
    Go to About Plug-In > Camera Raw… in the Photoshop menu and see what version shows up there, just to check that the plug-in is installed correctly.  There should only be one version of ACR in the plug-in menu.
    That Canon camera model has been supported ever since ACR versions 6.7 in CS5 and 7.1 in CS6.
    If ACR only shows once in the plug-in menu and you still cannot open your file(s), then you in all probability have corrupted files.
    The fact that you can see the images in Apple's Preview means nothing, only that Preview is showing you the embedded JPEG preview embedded in the file. Such JPEG previews generally do not get corrupted even if the raw file has been corrupted.
    I hope you have the original CR2 files or good backups. 

  • After updating to FF4 I've lost my toolbar (file, edit, etc).

    This morning when I turned on the computer it ask me to update to FireFox #4. I did. Now when I'm in my e-mail there is no toolbar available at the top of the screen. It moved my bookmarks to the extreme right (used to be on the toolbar mid-left). I would rather have the toolbar than the update. Can I go back?

    I've disabled add-ons. I started in safe-mode. I cannot get the menu-bar up.
    I've used FF for years. but its becoming more like IE all the time and I hate this FF4, I can't get any tool-bars up at all.
    If i click on the menu bar ..it just removes it but never opens it, if that makes sense.
