Premiere CC 2014 - "serious error and needs to shut down" - fix?

After a few days of successful editing, I am now constantly encountering this error message: "a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down."
I am using a 2013 MacBook Pro. I have seen this concern raised on other threads, but they seem to be addressed to Windows users.
Please help!
Best,
David Ketterer

A little more info:
This seems particularly likely to happen when I open a sequence on the timeline that has more than 5 audio tracks.
I'm using OS Mavericks 10.9.5. Video footage is .R3D. I have the crash report if that helps.

  • Adobe Premiere has encountered a serious error and needs to shut down.

    I encounter this every once in awhile and it's super irritating. I've cleared the cache a few times and even created new project files and saved them elsewhere to try and avoid the issue. Are there any updates or patches available?
    Premiere Pro CS6 6.0.1
    Thanks!

    >updates
    Yes... several... All Adobe updates start here and select product, read to see if you need to install updates in number order, or if the updates are cumulative for the individual product http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    Also, when you ask a question, you need to provide more information for someone to try and help

  • Since the iTunes update to 10.6 everytime I open iTunes there is an error message that says that iTunes has encountered an error and needs to shut down. Is there a way to fix this or go back to an older version of iTunes?

    Ever since the update, when I load iTunes it encounters an error and force closes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything Apple twice and that hasn't fixed the issue. Is there a way to go back to an older version of iTunes?

  • I cannot "download all" from the cloud ... it says that itunes has encountered an error and needs to shut down. I can download one song at a time. It is not being caused by any one song.

    I have the latest version of iTunes. When I am in the iTunes store and I click on purchased it will show me a list of all my purchased songs. Some of the older songs are already in my iTunes account. There is a cloud symbol by any songs that have not been download to my account. It always fails if I try to do a "download all" (at the bottom of the page) but I seem to be able to download one song at a time. These are songs that were purchased on my iPhone but I wanted to put them in my iTunes account so that I could put them on my iPod. The problem does not appear to be associated to any one song.

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

    Hello,
    I am running photoshop CS2 at work and had it open very slowly this morning (3minutes) and then give me an error message - Photoshop has encountered a serious error and needs to restart. I did this 3 times and it still is not working. I did a full uninstall each time, trashed prefferences, repaired permissions and restared but with no luck. Capture One is not opening either, but one step at a time here.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

  • Frequent "Firefox has encountered a problem and needs to shut down" window. Need to disable adblock plus and AVG safe search to continue. Any way to fix?

    For about a third of websites I visit, at some point I receive a "Firefox has encountered a problem and needs to shut down" window. I have to disable both Adblock plus and AVG safe search in order to continue. This used to happen for two or so sites, and I disabled the ad-ons before going to those sites. It has increased to the point that the adblock plus and safe search ad-ons are becoming pretty useless. Is there any way to rectify this problem. Sending error reports has no effect.

    I tried to update but it would not allow me to update, isn't that odd!?
    Have you changed anything in the Photoshop installation areas?  If the updater doesn't find a pristine installation it will fail.
    The only area you should ever put anything into is the plug-ins subfolder.  Everything else is hands-off.

  • I keep the itunes encountered a problem and needs to shut down . it was working fine until after i updated to 10.5 can someone plz help

    i keep the itunes encountered a problem and needs to shut down . it was working fine until after i updated to 10.5 can someone plz help

    I did get a "server busy" message when I loaded quicktime, but I'm not sure if it is related or not since I've been seeing that over the last couple of days, I can't remember if it came before iTunes stopped working or not. That message reads "This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Choose 'switch to' to activate the busy program and correct the problem." My options then are to choose switch to or retry. When I press "switch to" my Start menu opens, and nothing appears to happen when I select retry.
    that's an odd sort of a message (or series of messages).
    hmmmmm. let's try an experiment aimed at working out if there's a program interfering with the QuickTime (which is in turn causing grief with your iTunes).
    try a selective startup using MSCONFIG, with just the itunes and QuickTime background processes enabled, as per the following document:
    Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
    does QT open without the strange message after the selective startup?
    does iTunes launch properly?

  • Error Message: Sorry...serious error PRE 7 must shut down

    PRE 7 was running well. In fact I edited four movies successfully.
    But now whenever I attempt to Open Project or New Project I get the message:
    "Sorry...serious error encountered...must shut down.
    It is really frustrating to pay for a product and then not have it work.
    Any suggestions will be sincerely appreciated.

    I am running Windows XP. (latest version).
    The properties window for my drives says:
    C Drive

    I use camcorder: Sony VX2000.
    I have deleted all previously made (4) movies, hoping for a clean start and hoping that would help. It did not.
    So now I don't even get a chance to load from the camecorder because when I click on New Project, I get the message: "Sorry..."
    Since PRE 7 has worked in the past, I can only assume that somewhere in there I did something wrong to cause this problem.
    Side note: I down loaded a tril version of PRE 8 to see if that would work. Same thing. I have since removed PRE 8.
    I will most sincerely appreciate any help because I am a total computer dummie.
    Note that I did update to the latest version of Quick  Time. Did not help.
    I am so frustrated over this. I recently videoed a Puppet Show and gal is really on my case for the finished product.

  • "Sorry - serious error requires PrE3 to shut down" - every time?

    Hi - I've been using Adobe PrE3 for years to digitally enhance and transfer old home movie film (8mm-16mm) to DVD without any dramas. Always worked fine in a computer used specifically for that task.
    A few weeks ago, while trying to open an existing file, up popped the message: "Sorry - a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premier Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
    Not once, not twice, but every time I try to open any file in the programme. Have tried removing and reloading (authentic software) and still the problem persists.
    I'm using Windows XP in this computer and have no idea how to fix the problem.
    Even tried removing and installed PrE9 which I use in second computer but it wouldn't work at all.
    Can anyone help please?

    Pleasant dreams, ATR
    Windows XP (professional) is installed in the computer with PrE3 I use almost exclusively for film transfers.
    My main computer has Windows 7 and PrE9 installed in that for fancier editing I do with videos, slides - that kind of stuff.
    When I was having the initial troubles with PrE3 computer I thought I'd load 9 to see how that performed. Well, it didn't. Wouldn't work. So uninstalled it immediately and have been persevering with 3 ever since.
    I also installed PrE3 in the Windows 7 computer but it would not open up the "capture" window - just sat quietly in the corner, brooding. Mind you, PrE9 works fine in this same Windows 7 computer.
    Problem first started 7 days ago.
    Tomorrow will take the Windows XP computer to a local computer business that has been quite helpful in the past and see what he makes of it.
    Thanks anyway.
    regards
    David
