In Premiere CS5, I opened an old project I had edited using Premiere CS3 and now its all pixelated!

Hi everyone. I just got Premiere Pro CS5 and started the program and opened up an old project I had edited using Premiere Pro CS3. Premiere Pro CS5 said it had to convert the project for editing in CS5. I clicked "okay" and the project opened up in CS5. Now, when I play the project on the timeline, everything has some pixelation! The footage was nice and sharp without any artifacts when I edited in Premiere Pro CS3. How do I get rid of this pixelation in CS5 so the footage looks like it is supposed to?! Thanks.

Well, there's really no rationale for the project conversion to somehow drastically alter the appearance of footage, particularly something like DVCPROHD. Adobe changed the way its software handles pixel aspect ratios between CS3 and CS4, but that affects SD footage, not HD footage. There may be some degree of weirdness since in CS3, you had a project that was set to a specific format/frame rate/codec/whatever, whereas in CS4 and later the project is just a container for sequences of any and all types.
Instead of opening the original project and going through the conversion, try creating a new project and importing the old project as if it were any other media file. Premiere will reconstruct the old project within the new one; this probably is not going to have any change, but it's worth a shot.
Can you describe (or better, show) the pixelation you're referring to? It's hard to visualize without, well, a visual, and that might help better pinpoint the issue. Also, is the pixelation only during playback, or is while the clip is paused in the sequence, as well?

I just opened an "old" project in a newer version of iPhoto and the pages in the book doubled in number with the seam in the middle of each page. Suggestions?

Start with Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file delete the contents the following folder:
User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
If that doesn't help continue with:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Help: Opening an old project in CC

Hi all
I have a simple question really. I'd like to open an old project, which was created in a version prior to CS3 on Windows, in the new premiere CC, now running on a Mac. It's not letting me. I get the following error:
'This project was saved in a version prior to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and cannot be opened on a Mac'
I'd basically like to open the project (.prproj), and export as a final cut xml (fcpxml). Can somebody point me in the right direction? I've been searching online for days but can't seem to find a solution.
Thanks in advanced
S.

Hey guys.
Thanks for the advice so far. I got it slightly wrong, I'm trying to open a .ppj file (so it's even older than I thought) and Premiere CC won't open these. It's not even a supported file type. I've read online that some people can just rename it to a .prproj and it will work, but not in my case. Does anybody have an old version of Premiere that can open .ppj files that is willing to open it for me, and just export it as a final cut xml. Or if there is another solution, I'd be more than happy to try it.
Thanks
Sotiris.

I Reinstalled Premiere Pro CS3, loaded a project I edited using CS3, and NOW I get jagged edges!

Hey everyone. I was using Premiere Pro CS3 to edit some footage I shot with my HPX170 in 1080i 24p Advanced. The P2 footage looked great in Premiere CS3. I upgraded to Premiere CS5, imported the same exact project into CS5 using the same 1080i 24p Advanced setting, and I got jagged stair stepping edges on the objects that were in sharp focus in my footage. Okay, I thought, I'll just reinstall Premiere Pro CS3 and continue editing the footage in CS3 since it looked normal in CS3 with no jagged edges. But, to my surprise, I'M GETTING THE SAME EXACT THING NOW IN PREMIERE PRO CS3!!!! What in the heck is up with that? How can the footage look normal when I imported and editied it before in CS3 and NOW I get jagged stair stepping edges?!!!! I even tried importing a fresh clip from the footage and that clip still has the jagged stair stepping edges. This makes no sense whatsoever! Does anyone know what's going on with this? It seems like an interlace artifact problem BUT, if that's the case, why didn't it do this the first time in Premiere Pro CS3? And trust me, I would have noticed right away if it did!

Hey Shooternz. Which exact playback settings are you asking about? I set the one of the playback settings to "Highest Quality" instead of "Automatic" and nothing changed. I unchecked 24p Pulldown in the "Interpret Footage" section and nothing changed (I don't even remember "24p Pulldown" being in the Interpret Footage section the first time I installed CS3, which is strange. Was that added in an update?). I tried different sizes like HD 1.5, HD 16:9, etc. in the Interpret Footage section and the jaggies are still there. Nothing seems to work. ??? This is weird because they weren't there the first time I edited the footage in CS3 when I installed CS3 the first time. One thing I noticed is, when I installed CS3 the second time and loaded the project, as the project was loading, I got a message that said something like "These project settings cannot be loaded. We will now switch to Desktop Mode." Would that have something to do with it you think?

you have a ps cs4 license for mac and you have some way of finding your serial number.
if yes, download an install the installation file. if you already have the installation file, what is its name and file extension? (eg, if it's one file, it should be a dmg file.)
if you need the installation file,

At first I saw my old photos, then the whole thing went down, and now I have a new Lightroom 5 trial, and none of my edited photos. Can I retrieve all these photos from my first trial?

Yes, you have to find the catalog file from the CC trial (use your operating system to search for it, the file name ends with .LRCAT), and then once you find it, open the LR5 trial and open the catalog you just found using File->Open Catalog

You cannot merge accounts.
Why did you start a new account?

Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

I just created a new iPhoto library with holding the option key down and then opening iPhoto with version 7.1.5. I changed the name of the first library to iPhoto library 1 and now I all my photos are gone. My operating system is Mavericks.

launch iPhoto wile holding down the option key and select the original library - when you create a new library of course it is empty
And you seriously need to backup your iPhoto library and purchase and install iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store and download and run the iPhoto library upgraded \then run the new iPhoto - 7.1.5 is not fully compatible with Mavericks

PS you also need to update your profile - it states that you have OS X 10.6.8

HT3798 my iPod was originally connect to an old HP. The HP has since died and now I own a Macbook pro. I want to transfer the music from my iPod (originally synced with the HP) to my Macbook Pro. Is this possible without losing the music on my iPod?

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the PC as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.

I moved my FCP events and projects folder onto my external hard drive and now everything is gone on FCP. When I tried to reload those folders onto FCP nothing happened. I still get the missing files image.

I moved my FCP events and projects folder onto my external hard drive and now everything is gone on FCP. When I tried to reload those folders onto FCP nothing happened. I still get the missing files image. When I try to import the folders manually something pops up that says it is incompatable. It is possible to retrieve everything that was lost?

"When I tried to reload those folders onto FCP nothing happened"
Brownale6 how can u reload folder in to FCP.
As you said folders are moved to external disk but have you checked it should be like this
For Event
external disk>Final Cut Events>your event folder.
For project
external disk>Final Cut Projects>your project folder.

In Premiere CS5, I opened an old project I had edited using Premiere CS3 and now its all pixelated!
