Media Offline for No Reason

I've come across an issue with some Premiere Pro projects that sometimes randomly disconnect media from the project--even when the media hasn't moved. This happens when I open up the project. I'll go to export the sequence and a couple clips have disconnected themselves from their source files. It's even more difficult in Premiere because you can't search for offline media. Instead, I've had to go through a 30 minute show to find the couple tiny clips that are offline.
What's a good way to manage this? What could be causing it? Anyone else come across this?

...even when the media hasn't moved.
Are your media files located on an internal or an external drive?
Are you using any preference or utility that 'spins down'
or 'times out' a drive after a certain period of inactivity?
Your version of Premiere?
Your OS?
It's even more difficult in Premiere because you can't search for offline media. Instead, I've had to go through a 30 minute show to find the couple tiny clips that are offline.
Instead... select everything in your Project Panel (Ctrl/Cmd+A),
right-click, and select "Link Media".
Premiere is smart enough to figure out that you only want
to link the offline media, and will prompt you as many times
as it takes to locate the offline clips.

  • Media Offline for long m2t files

    I'm using Premiere Pro CS6 and when I import a m2t video into it it sometimes says "Media Offline"  even though I have not touched the source files at all. Usually all I have to do in this situation is relink the files, however here that is not the case. I shot all the video with the same camera so I know it's not premiere not having the correct codecs since some of the work. The only difference I'm seeing between the different files is that it seems to be having more issues with the longer videos (more than about 1 hour and about 15gb in size). I can provide any additional information you may require.
    Thanks for your help,

  • Vonage Adapter on Network Magic Pro goes offline for no reason

    1. Network Magic version: 5.5.9195.0-Pure0
    2. Internet connection via Texas Communications in Bryan, Texas which is line of sight tower transmission to the dish receiver
    (modem) on my home. http://www.tconline.net/default.htm
    3. Texas Communications Modem - Motorola Canopy (Motorola Wireless Broadband Platform)
    4. D-Link Router DIR-615, Hardware version B2, Firmware 2.25
    5. Problem device is Vonage Voice over IP box (Vonage V-Portal Digital Phone Adapter) wired to the router.
    6. Computer uses Windows XP Home Edition with sp3.
    7. AVG version 10.0.1204 Anti-Virus Free Edition 2011
    8. Windows firewall.
    The problem occurs when the Vonage adapter drops offline (according to Network Magic Pro) for some unknown reason. The icon for  Vonage dims in the NMP map but the Vonage phone continues to work at a degraded level (about every 2nd or 3rd word spoken is not received).
    I've tried port forwarding the Vonage adapter but this doesn't keep the adapter online.
    Once the Vonage adapter drops offline the only way I've found to correct the problem is to delete the adapter from NMP then
    re-install it again. There doesn't seem to be a way to wake up the adapter once offline. I can reboot my network computers and this doesn't affect the Vonage adapter.
    Help!

    You have to do a little better than that.
    Printer?
    current drivers?
    Network? wireless? or bad USB cable?
    1st I've read here.

  • Printer has gone offline for no reason! I have downloaded HP diagnostics, restarted computer, etc.

    Help!  My Officejet 6480 goes offline whenever it gets in the mood.  It's a wireless hookup.  Everything looks fine--wireless light is on, printer is on, etc.  I've downloaded the HP Diagnostics which seems to think everything is fine, judgin by all the green checks.  This has been a  problem ever since I switched to Windows 7.
    Please help!

    I have to reboot my router for the problem to be resolved. I have assigned a static IP in the router for the printer as some suggested.  But as soon as the printer goes into sleep mode I seem to lose connectivity between the router and printer. The router reboot sloves my problem, but it's a pain. The HP diagnostics does nothing for me except to suggest I have to run setup which is crazy in my opinion.

  • Voice-over audio goes offline for no reason.  Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

    This is happening on both my editors.  I will add a voice-over track to the storyline and if I close out that project or close out FCPX, sometimes my voiceover track is offline.  NO, I DID NOT MOVE THE FILE OR ERASE ANYTHING.  I appreciate any input.

    Hey there 79usma79!
    I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
    iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
    This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:

  • Mail keeps going offline for no reason

    During the course of a day Mail keeps going "Offline" and coming up with a dialogue box asking for me to re-enter my password. I've checked in my "account" and the information is still there so I manually have to click to go back "Online". But it repeats about every 15 minutes. Restarting the computer does not fix it and it's been happening for about 2 weeks now. Sometimes when I click to go back "Online" it doesn't happen straight away and I have to wait a few minutes. Very frustrating!!!. Sending mail is fine, it just affects receiving mail.

    If Mail keeps asking for your password when retrieving mail, then it may very likely be that the password you entered has become corrupted in the Keychain. You should try this:
    Open Keychain Access>Passwords and scroll through the list to find that specific entry and delete it; quit Keychain Access.
    Restart Mail and enter your password again when it asks, and check the box to save it in the Keychain. If things work as expected, it will not ask you again unless your Keychain or an entry in it becomes corrupted again.

  • Error Message for "Media Pending" or "Media Offline"

    This is INCREDIBLY frustrating.
    It is my job at a church to produce broadcast-quality segments for our local tv stations for 28 minute slots. I am working with HD-quality videos, bumpers, audio files, etc. It takes my PC about 30 minutes to render each segment and I work with about 4 segments a week. Add that up, and it takes me two straight hours to render each finished product (not counting any edit work), all which have to be done in a day because we broadcast most of the stuff that happens on Sunday the following Tuesday.
    That said, I render the final product, after everything has been through quality-control, through encoder because of the FTP option. When I leave every Monday afternoon, I start the queue for the four segments, which, in turn, will spit out the product and FTP it to our server at the tv stations.
    But when I come in Tuesday morning and find that AME has rendered four USELESS videos because, instead of informing me when I started the queue there was something wrong with fetching the video files, it decided to render some stupid stock frame of either, "Media Pending" or "Media Offline" - which makes ABSOLUTLY NO sense, for when I open premiere or after effects, it renders quite fine through AME. You can't sit here and tell me that the rendering software requires the project to be open in Premiere or AE. That would be counter productive and impossible for anyone batch-rendering.
    Here is what I need: Just a simple, "Hello, there was something wrong with fetching all of the media files in your project (blank, blank, blank) - please check your project file."
    Thanks!

  • ** 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.
    Lucas Selbach

    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!

  • Why does my media appear offline for a split second? It's messing up my exports! FCP 7.0.3

    Every so often, while I'm working, I'll see some of my media go red, with the slash, just for a split second. Just a red flicker almost. It doesn't require me to reconnect or anything, which is weird, as FCP usually makes me go through all the steps of reconnecting.
    I'm working off of servers, managed through EditShare. I work for a local TV station, so I don't know all the ins and outs of our network. But this isn't the real problem....The issue above doesn't really matter. I don't even notice it happen most of the time. But, I believe it's the root of my real problem.
    You see, I like to use "Share..." instead of export, which lets me continue to edit other things while it background exports in a small, floating window. THE PROBLEM is if my media 'flickers' during a 'share export' I get the red 'MEDIA OFFLINE' page in my video. If I 'Share' it again, it always comes out fine. But that 'MEDIA OFFLINE' page has made it to TV occasionally.
    VERY embarrassing. And nobody wants to hear it only happened because I wanted save time.
    So, I'll just have to double-check EVERY clip I export this way, which is super annoying. Anyone have any advice?

    You might try doing a "send" to compressor, instead of share, which also allows you to continue working.    But it might have the same problem.  I don't work with shared storage and I generally prefer to do a self contained export at current settings (which if your project is fully rendered is pretty fast) and then bring it into compressor for compression which allows me to continue working.  But I do occasionally use the "send" to compressor function (again without shared storage) continue editing, and have never seen this problem

  • Media file thumbnails in browser say "media offline", but files are online and available for viewing/editing. How do I get a thumbnail of the clip back?

    I am moderately experienced with FCE, but cannot figure out this issue. The thumbnails in my browser say "media offline", and no longer show a thumbnail of my video clip. When I try to reconnect the media files, the reconnect dialog box only checks for "online" media. I am able to view and work with the media files in my project even though it says they are offline. This issue seems to occur after a power outage. Its more of an annoyance than anything else, but I would still like to find a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Figured it out.

  • Mail takes all accounts offline for apparently no reason

    For reasons unknown, Mail takes all my accounts offline. If I take all my accounts online and then click "get mail" all accounts are taken offline. This started with one account and suddenly spread to the other accounts. They are all POP accounts. The first account that did so for some reason would not allow me to change the smtp and the only choice was "account name - offline". Any ideas? I check mail manually and dont have it set to check automatically so it is not a question of checking too often. My iPhone is not set to check the accounts either...I dont have mobile me. Thanks...

    I can't help here... but give my input about mail- I get sporadic weird things with mail and just learned to ignore them like a fly buzzing around the head. After a while it goes back to normal. Things like mail asking for passwords (I now just cancel this instead of re entering passwords), accounts going off line, mail freezing- this happened like three times this week... but not last month...

  • HT1277 i have all the correct settings for my e mail but i can't send for some reason it keeps taking my outgoing server offline

    i have all the correct settings for my e mail but i can't send for some reason it keeps taking my outgoing server offline can anyone help

    If you can receive mail and your connection to your ISP is otherwise working, but cannot send mail, then your SMTP settings are incorrect; the SMTP server port is wrong, your SSL setting is wrong, or the username or password credentials don't match what the ISP has, or your attempted accesses are being blocked or your ISP SMTP server is offline.
    And in general, don't use port 25 for your outbound mail, unless your ISP specifically requires that; these days, that port is best left to communications between mail servers and (usually) not used by any mail clients.
