Premier Pro CS4 will NOT EXPORT

I have just installed the CS4 Premier Pro and have a really strange problem.
When I select File/Export/Media the dialogue Box comes up asking for my format preferences, location of saved file etc but when I hit OK a very brief small dialogue box comes up "Exporting Data".
But no file is exported.
Whats happening?

>it cannot find the file
Are you getting the "
Encoding Failed Could not read from the source" message?
Cheers

  • My trial ended, now my premier pro file will not open on a different machine (it has opened on this machine before). It is saying the "file is damaged" I don't want to loss my edit, how can I access it?

    Steven is correct, you never can go back to an earlier version with Adobe Premiere with the project file.  If your preceding version was CC you might try the trial version of CC 2014, but remember that once you enter the trial version cycle you never can go back.
    There was a way to hack the project file on the CS versions but that disappeared with CC.

  • My adobe premier pro CS6 will not install

    Hi there
    I am trying to install the adobe premier pro cs6 trial version, when I go through the set up, it say's that Adobe Encore CS6 and Adobe Premier pro CS6 do not meet os requirments, 64 bit os recommended.
    I really don't have much idea what that means or if there is a way around it etc. is there another version of the trial that doesn't require 64 bit? My computer is operating a 32 bit system.
    thanks
    Bex

    Unfortunately not.
    Premiere Pro CS6 and Encore CS6 are 64 bit only. They will not run on your machine.
    http://www.adobe.com/au/products/premiere/faq.html#64bit-support
    You could have a look at Premiere Elements which runs on 32 bit and 64 bit.

  • Premier Pro 2014 will not launch

    I've downloaded Premier Pro 2014 and tried to launch it, but it freezes every time and won't even force quit. I have to hard crash the whole computer to get out of it.
    I've tried reinstalling, setting the permissions to read/write in the Adobe folder in the library, and tried to reset the preferences on launch as described here. But nothing works.
    Also I'm having basically the same problem with After Effects 2014.
    I think it has something to do with Media Core, but I can't figure out how to remedy. Earlier versions of PP CC and AEP CC are both working fine. Just these new versions will not launch.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Computer is a MacPro, 2.93 Ghz Quad-Core with 10GB of RAM.
    Thanks!

    It's working! Yay!
    Strangely, there is no 8.0 folder in the Plug-ins folder. So I pulled the plugins out of the 7.0>MediaCore folder and then was able to launch PP 2014. After getting it running. I quit PP and dragged the plug-ins back into the 7.0>MediaCore folder and was able to launch PP 2014. And this time it launched with all the plug-ins.
    I was also able now to launch After Effects CC 2014 with all its plug-ins working.
    Is it possible there's a different file structure for PP 2014 Plug-ins?
    Anyway it's working. Thanks for your help.

  • Final Cut Pro X will not export Audio

    Everything looks / works fine on the timeline. However, when exporting there is no audio. When trying to export audio only, I receive Quicktime Error 0. This just started happening in the last couple days. I've had it since it came out and haven't changed anything in the settings, etc. I'm clueless. I have a project that took me a couple days to put together. I've had to capture the audio using iShowU and then sync it up in Premier Pro - not a good workflow at all. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Well - I was slightly wrong. I was zooming in on the timeline to do some screen captures and there actually was a cross disolve I couldn't see when zoomed out to the full timeline. So, I'd heard people having issues where dissolves are so I removed it. Sure enough everything plays (and exports) fine. However, I go to re-add the disolve and the sound again shuts off right at that point on export. Any solutions to that problem?

  • Premiere cs4 will not export sequence

    I am not new to Premiere, but I am  new to the CS4 version. I have set up a simple serquence with a single  dissolve between clips. But i cannot export it to any format. I am on a PC using XP Professional.
    My Procedure: I  select the sequence created in Premiere; I go to File>export>Export Media; there is no "export" button available. I can hit OK which opens the  Adobe Media Encoder and shows the file statis "waiting". If I go ahead and encode, I get an error message. It says something about that it cannot find the files. I tried this in an earlier version on Premiere and it works fine-no error. Any ideas about  what I am overlooking to get this thing rendered as a Qicktime (or any  other format)? Thanks.

    In AME (Adobe Media Encoder), you need to load the Sequence into the Queue, set the Export attributes, and then start the Export. If that is what you have done, then it might be useful to have the full text of the error message, as something else might be conflicting.
    Good luck,

  • Priemere Pro CS4 will not save , project file is very large

    I have a recent project (music videos) that was started in CS4 and upgraded to CS5. ( OS = Windows 7 x64)  Things were great but then I hit a wall, at about 8 sequences it would take 1/2 an hour to save.  I split up the project by making copies of the project file, renaming it and then deleting selected sequences from various copies of the project thus limiting it to 4 or 5 sequences per copy.  This seemed to help for a few saves but it got worse.   Now I can no longer save any copy of the project using "Save", "Save As" or "Save Copy As".  I deleted the preferences file as explained in another thread but it didn't help.  I deleted my renderd files but it didn't help.  The entire project has become unworkable and useless.  I cannot remove sequences from the work area, I cannot save changes.  Attempting either locks up Priemere.  Also, as the problem got worse the size of the project file doubled even though the project had become smaller.
    I have other projects started in CS4 and upgraded to CS5 but not opened and saved anywhere near as much as this one and not saved as many times at it took this one to fail.  I have no projects created in CS5 that have been used enough to see if this behaviour presists.
    Does anyone have any clue how to save this project?
    Thanx,
    Mel

    Mel,
    If you have not done so yet, take a look at this THREAD.
    Hope that helps and good luck,

  • Final Cut Pro X will not export my project - error 1

    Hello everyone,
    So Final Cut is giving me a hard time. I have a project about 15mins long that I would like to export as a master file and it just doesn't want to work. When I first finished and tried to export, I was using verison 10.0.8. I would select master file for the export and it would just sit there, stuck on 0%. I then realized that I needed to update. I updated to 10.0.9 and tried to do the same thing again - no luck. Next, I closed final cut and trashed preferences. I then opened up and tried exporting again, same thing happened, stuck on 0%. Then I closed again and trashed preferences again. I opened final cut, turned off background rendering, and trashed project render files and event render files (as was suggested in another discussion for export problems). After doing that, I again tried to export - still nothing. At this point of course, I had trashed the render files, so I figured I should just let the project render again. I turned background rendering back on and opened my project - now it would not render! It was stuck on 0%! Okay so I closed and reopened again. I first tried to copy my whole project into a new project and try letting it render that way - nope, didn't work. So I closed and opened again. I turned off background rendering and started a new project. I pasted just a section of my video into the new project and manually rendered that section, which worked. So I pasted the rest of the video (in chunks) into the new project, manually rendering chunk by chunk. Finally I had my whole project again, and the whole thing was rendered. I tried exporting again and got the error 1 message, "The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 373 (error -1).". This is my current state of affairs, and its driving me crazy. I just want to export my project!
    Please help....Thanks

    Thank you. I found it now. This is a location where I did not expect this. I tried to do this using the GUI elements controlling how clips are displayed in the time line. I also was looking for a context menu item on the clip. I did not expect it in the preferences.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 will not export the full project sequence

    I have a project consisting of  videos, photos, and audio. The full project is just over 12 minutes long. I can export it out in chunks, but when I try to export 11 or more minutes of it, I'm able to export new projects that are longer, but have less tracks, just fine.

  • Blending mode in Adobe Premier Pro CS4 not working???

    in Adobe Premier Pro CS4, the "multiply" blending feature is not  working properly. When there's no video underneath the "blending" layer,  it SHOULD not show anything, but instead the clip instead just shows  up.

    Well, the problem is that you're assuming that the "nothing" in the gaps in your PPro sequence is "something," when really, it actually IS "nothing"...
    OK, existentialism aside, when you see black in the Program Monitor that results from a gap between two clips, from a digital standpoint, there really is nothing there. Empty spaces in a PPro sequence are actually a fully transparent layer, created by an alpha channel that encompasses the entire frame. Since the Multiply mode is expecting RGB values to operate on, when it doesn't encounter any (due to the alpha channel) the effect is just ignored--that's why you see the clip with the Multiply mode when it crosses those gaps.
    You can correct this by filling your gaps with "real" black, either from an imported graphic or from the black video generator in PPro. Simply edit a bit of it into the gap so that there are no holes, and your multiplied clips will disappear.
    And for that matter, it's never a good idea to leave empty holes in a Premiere sequence; it's often the cause of rendering and exporting headaches.

  • Can't export to tape on Premier Pro CS4 Extended

    When I attempt to export to tape from Premier Pro CS4 Extended, version 4.1.0, to a DV Cam, the tape rolls and records (with device control) but I get no video or audio.
    I have:
    -selected the timeline for the sequence
    -the work area bar is over the entire sequence
    -I’ve made sure the tape is record enabled
    -I have tried two DV cameras, and three fire wire cords
    -I am able to capture video into the computer using all of the above
    -I’ve tried moving my project from my external hard drive to my internal one
    Still no export…….
    Any ideas why?
    -I am using a Dell computer with:
                - Windows XP Professional 2002 Service pack 3
                - Intel[R] Core [TM]2 Quad CPU
                -Q9450 @ 2.66JHz
                -2/66 GHz, 3.25 GB of RAM
                -Physical Address Extension
                -Unfortunately I can not find the name of my video card but this computer was   built specifically to edit video so I am sure it has one.

    Make sure External Device under Export is enabled in the Playback Settings of the Program monitor.

  • Adobe CS4 will not install on new macbook pro [was: pro]

    Adobe CS4 will not install on new macbook pro. It is coming from my other macbook.

    Install normally means running setup from the orginal discs or the downloadable trial version. If you are copying from a backup or another computer, that won't work.
    Best advice is to download the CS4 trial, and have your serial number ready in order to convert the trial into a licensed version.
    Get the trial here. Follow the instructions carefully or the download link won't work.

  • Am editing with red files in premier pro and when I export and then upload to youtube it is not showing as an hd video.  can anyone help?

    am editing with red files in premier pro and when I export and then upload to youtube it is not showing as an hd video.  can anyone help?

    Then it's probably YouTube - have you checked here to see that you're watching the hi res version? It could be that YouTube is choosing an easier version to display based on your internet connection.
    You can see on this screenshot that although the video has up to 1080 specs, my connection is making YouTube show me the 360p version by default.

  • Serious error when Exporting to Media Encoder Premier Pro CS4

    Hi I have a 64 bit HP7900 16 GB memory and Vista Home premium edition
    I have taken the automatic upgrades and it has completely screwed over my Premier Pro CS4 making it unusable.
    I decided to co back to version 4 and installed everything again.
    Now I cant export to Media Encodet.
    All my driver are up to date and I am using scratch disks.
    Error message enclose.
    My business is now shout down can anyone please urgently help me
    Thanks
    Nick

    A number of people have been bitten by an update bug. When updating to 4.1 some have been reverted to trial status, losing all MPEG capabilities. Mostly this is caused by having had a trial version earlier or a faulty installation to start with. The only workable solution is to completely uninstall, run the Clean Script utility 2 or 3 times, reinstall and then reapply the updates. Cumbersome and time consuming, but the only solution.
    Look in the Adobe KB for info on the Clean Script CS4 utility.

  • Premier Pro CS4, not recognizing .mpg or .m2ts files

    Hello, I downloaded the 30 day trial of Premier Pro CS4.. So far it works great other than the following:
    Cannot recognize .mpg or .m2ts (avchd "high def") files... It recognizes only .wma files.  Is this because I have the "free" trial
    version? My currect Premiere Elements 7 reads all the above files with no trouble.

    OK, I good with that... but what's the point of trialing if you cannot manipuate videos ??  I'd hate to spend the $700+ without being comfortable with Premier Pro CS4.   Allright, I guess I'll have to make .wma files to test.
    Thanks for your feedback!
