Premiere CS6 Assets in bins disappears after approx 2 hours editing

I am having a reoccurring problem with CS6 Premiere -- after working on the project for about 2 hours, all of a sudden the bins are empty.  None of the assets I have imported appear in the bins -- very disconcerting!  I save the project, shut down Premiere and then reopen and it is all there, all bins come in loaded with assets.  This really slows down my work flow and appears to be happening more often.  The bins still appear but there is nothing in them -- the project still plays so the media is there somewhere -- I just can't access it.  I have tried importing new media when this happens and it doesn't import.  Has anyone had this problem?  Do you think it is a Windows problem?  Am using most current Windows OS 8.  Thank you in advance for any advice you might have!  Jennifer

I will take a screen shot next time it happens -- I realize it is a strange thing and doesn't seem likely -- but it is really happening.  Imagine the project bins all lined up where they belong - with the arrows to open the bins, but when you open the bins there is nothing there -- so the bin is there with the arrow in the dropped position, but the next bin is located under it, with nothing in it -- etc.  All the bins are there, but no media is in the bin.  I am working on a documentary and have been editing for several months after shooting for 1 year -- this just started happening in the past month.  I have edited and imported plenty before this started happening --
I am editing on a timeline -- I have many sequences in the project.  When the bins appear empty, the sequence in the timeline will still play-- I know, this is really a strange thing -- I really wish it would stop happening...very frustrating...thank you for trying to help!

  • Premiere CS6 crashing on start up after Mountain Lion install.

    Hi everyone, new to the forum.  I'm on a mid-2010 Macbook Pro i5 8GB RAM using the Creative Cloud, mainly Premiere Pro CS6.  So, last week installed Mountain Lion (probably a mistake) after I read that there were no issues with Premiere.  Well, since then whenever I launch CS6 the purple Premiere art pops up and I get a spinning beach ball every single time and the app doesn't respond.  Worked perfectly before ML install.  I have called Adobe 3 times...no help.  I have done clean installs, cleared preferences, tried on new admin users.  No luck.  I'm not super tech, if anyone has any words of wisdom, I would love that.  Thank you all.  Let me know if you need nore info on the issue.

    Did this issue ever get resolved for you?

  • Emails in inbox disappear after an hour or so

    I am a new Blackberry user and not very tech savy- pretty much clueless.  I have a Curve 8330.  My emails come in on my Blackberry, but they only stay there an hour or two and then just fall off and disappear.  This is my second Curve in about a month doing the same thing- Cellular South(my cellular provider) could not figure it out so they gave me a new.  I have had several more proficient Blackberry users try to fix it- no luck.  My email provider can't figure it out either. 
    According to others looking at my phone for me- it is not a memory problem.  We are talking very low volume of emails- 3 to 15.  It seems to be more about time, but even that is not consistent.
    It does not delete emails that I have sent or forwarded- received messages are only deleted.
    I get all incoming emails on my desktop and Blackberry.  Emails stay on my desktop, but fall off my blackberry. 
    Email provider deleted an unread email off of the server- it deleted off of my desktop, but did not delete off my Blackberry. 
    Another thing is that the last two Fridays after 4:00 in the afternoon my emails stayed in inbox for Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday- then on Monday when I got my first email they all fell off.
    Please help.

    Also check your email configuration...with any message list displayed:
    BBKey > Options > General Options
    Make sure that the very last setting is set however you want. This will affect how long an email is kept on the BB.
    You also might try deleting and re-creating the BIS conduit for this email account...it sounds like something is just not right and sometimes this process helps clear it up.
    Hopefully something there will help.

  • AVCHD AND PREMIERE CS6

    After over 12 years as an Avid editor (now on MC 6.5) I decided to switch to Adobe Premiere CS6 because I have a music documentary to edit with over 300 hours of material shot on AVCHD.  Avid still hasn't conquered the AVCHD problem (although it's getting better) and I thought Adobe had.  I've spent a lot of money making this switch only to discover that Premiere plays back slow and has lots of problems with AVCHD. When is Adobe going to fix this?  I'm scared my only solution is to sale my wonderful MacPro (16 gig, NVIDIA 4000 card) and use Sony Vegas which doesn't have any problems with AVCHD. If the Adobe fix is only days away, I can wait. If not, I've really got to go to Sony.

    I share the frustrations folks have with AVCHD editing in CS6; I know mine is due to the spanned clip issue.  It's highly frustrating to have spent good money on CS6 only to not be able to use it at all.  I'm forced to stick with CS5.5 which is fine, but I'd really like to use the new software without transcoding/converting my AVCHD footage.
    The "we don't have a timeline yet" answer isn't going to hold water much longer.  I understand software development isn't easy, but you've known about this since around the time CS6 was released and there hasn't been any visible movement on it yet.
    Figure this out quickly, please.  I'm not going to buy CS6.5 when it's released unless this is fixed before that.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Premiere CS6 Trial, where is it?

    I have downloaded the trial version for Premiere CS6 and have gone through the 4 hours of installation only to find that i cannot find it anywhere on my laptop? the only things i can find are the Installation wizard and lots of files to do with the downloads. If anyone can help please comment!

    Strange! Please make sure your system meets the minimum requirements : http://www.adobe.com/in/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
    64 bit support is required for Premiere Pro CS6.
    If it meets the system specs required you can try the following steps :
    Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref :  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-adminis trator-account-on-windows-vista/ )
    > Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-servic es-windows.html )
    > Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
    Reboot and try reinstalling the software in the new Administrator account.

  • Dragging clips to bins is very slow in Premiere CS6

    I just upgraded to Premiere CS6 from CS 5.5 (no thank you, CC) and have problems with very slow speed when dragging clips from one bin to another in the Project panel. Here are the specifics:
    I have about 1500 clips in a bin that I'm sorting through in the Project panel, putting clips into other bins as I classify them. If I have the 1500 clips sorted by the Name field, there's no delay as I move a clip or clips from the big bin to one of the smaller bins. If, however, I sort the 1500 clips by Media File Path in the Project panel (which puts the clips in chronological order because the file names reflect date and time), then doing the same work results in an 8-second delay every time I try to move a clip between bins.
    I get the 8-second delay each and every time I drag a clip between bins. It occurs whether I select a single clip to drag or drag multiple clips. As soon as I sort in the panel by Name field instead of the Media File Path field, dragging has no delay.
    I have no such trouble with delays in CS5.5, so I'm at a loss. I need to have the bin sorted by Media File Path, because I need them in chronological order as I evaluate them. But an 8-second delay each time I move a clip bogs me down so much it's impractical to get any sorting done.
    I suspect this is a bug. I've upgraded to CS6.05, but that didn't fix it. Does anyone have a workaround?
    Thanks,
    Mike Boom

    A good suggestion. I did try that earlier, but alas, no luck.
    Sorting works across all bins in the Project panel, so once you sort on the Media File Path, drags are slow from all bins, even if you segment into bins as small as two clips.
    Premiere is doing something bad with sorts after CS5.5. Looks like Adobe fell down on regression testing for the updated version. Then again, it's got to be hard to regression test as many features as Premiere has.

  • Do I need After Effects to do chroma key or titles in Premiere CS6?

    My question is pretty much as it appears in the thread title. I plan to make some very straightforward videos that will teach the viewer English. So we need beginning and ending credits/titles, plus subtitles in Japanese over our English audio. Also, we plan to use green-screen behind the teachers/hosts.
    For any of this, is After Effects necessary? Or can it all be done easily in Premiere CS6?
    Thanks in advance for any advice!
    Andrew

    AE might give you more possibilities, but it's not absolutely necessary to do this.

  • Video footage I've imported from iMovie to Premiere cs6 is missing after the import!  please help!

    I initially imported raw video footage from an event that I shot into iMovie 11, but later decided to try an edit the footage in Adobe Premiere CS6.  I successfully imported the iMovie file folder into CS6, then saved and exited the program to work on it after lunch.  When I returned and reopened the file, the footage could not be found.  I attempted to reopen it in iMovie and it came up as a missing file also.  I know it successfully opened in Premiere because I've seen the footage.  I didn't trash anything so it's not in the trash.  Where did my footage go, and how can I retrieve it?

    Hi Ann, Hi JSW,
    I looked around a bit and noticed that this same problem sometimes happens in iMovie itself. People lose their media because it gets copied inside the project file itself. If you right click to see the package contents, you might be able to locate the media and copy it to a dedicated folder, then reconnect media to it in Premiere Pro. See this post on the apple website: Source clip missing | Apple Support Communities
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Premiere Titles Don't Open in After Effects (CS6)

    I created a few titles in a premiere cs6 project using premiere's built-in title creator.
    Saved the premiere project file.
    Opened After Effets and imported the Premiere project using "File / Import / Adobe Premiere Pro Project
    The project loads into AE
    When I open the main composition, all the elements seem to be there, but each of the title layers have been replaced with a black Solid of the same name.  There doesn't seem to be any title information that has translated over. 
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks.

    This is unfortunate news.  With integration between Premiere and After Effects being a main selling point, it seems strange that something seemingly simple such as text should be able to go back and forth between the two.

  • Adobe After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 wont work on OS lion

    I just bought a teacher Edition of Adobe Production Premium. I installed the softwares on my Mac which is running OS Lion 10.8.2. Everything works except Adobe After Effects CS6 and Adobe Premiere CS6. It always start up with the splash page then a pop up window opens that reads unexpected error occured send to apple.
    I don't understand because Photoshop, illustrator and the other softwares worked fine.
    I have tried uninstalling, re-installing, re-starting and even tried to download the After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 on creative cloud thinking that maybe those on the web will be more updated to address the issue.
    But still I cant get it to work.
    Please help.

  • Why does Adobe Premiere CS6 slow playback after importing some audio?

    Adobe Premiere CS6.0 v6.0.2
    Mac Pro:
    1, 4 core - 3.2ghz CPU
    16gb ram (4 sticks of 4gb @ 1066 MHz)
    1 Tb dive with OS/Apps on
    2Tb 7200 RPM media drive
    ATI Radeon HD 5770
    Sequence:
    30Fps
    1920x1080
    Media:
    mostly .MFX files from a Canon XF100 however these clips commonly play nice with Premiere.
    Issue:
    After importing some audio clips (.wav/.mp3, possibly other extensions) to the timeline on occasion the video playback will become choppy and the audio will slow down 3% creating any voices in the video to become deeper and slows down.  Choppy video playback as well.  The problem is very annoying but  it can be temporarily fixed with a computer restart but it will come back.
    Things to note:
    Creating a rendered ID (Exporting the movie out to a .mov) the slowed choppy video does not appear in the final movie.
    Temp. Solution:
    The only way I can fix this problem is by restarting the computer.  Simply restarting Adobe Premiere and closing any non-essential applications does not fix the problem.
    Any ideas on how to fix this are much apperciated.

    Try converting your MP3 to AIFF ,QT or something else Macs like. See if that helps.

  • Video tracks disappear when changing between sequences in premiere CS6

    Dear people, can you please help me find out why video tracks disappear when changing between sequences in premiere CS6.
    All it shows is the audio track and it is maximized to the first frame of the sequence. Video tracks are there but hidden - although video IS showing up in the program monitor.
    When I pull the tracks down in the timeline window using the dividing line between the video and audio tracks and set the sequence work area back it works fine, however it is a great annoyance having to do this every time when i swap between sequences.
    Can anybody please suggest a solution to this?
    I'd appreciate any help.
    MD

    This is the audio tracks problem i cannot overcome:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1586025
    (basically every type of audio i drop/place onto the timeline becomes left channel only, regardless of it being music or camera-recorded audio.
    In the source monitor everything plays back just fine, but when placed to the timeline - it becomes LEFT only.
    Weird.... (or am I and not it)

  • WARNING: Premiere CS6 won't load past "Loading ExporterQuickTimeHost" after QT 7.7.3 update

    Just what the subject line says, Premiere CS6 won't load up past the splash screen and "Loading ExporterQuickTimeHost" after I updated to QT 7.7.3 (Win7).  No other updates done, my CS6 is up to date.  I reverted back to 7.6 and problem went away.  Just an little word of warning to those who see the update pop up.
    If you run into the problem, here's the link to download 7.6.  You will have to uninstall 7.7.3 then instal 7.6.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime

    I ran into a similar issue on Premiere Elements 11:  On program launch, the system hung on "Quicktimehost.pm".  After some troubleshooting with no success, I:
    1) Uninstalled Quicktime version 7.7.5
    2) Installed Quickitme version 7.6
    3) rebooted my machine
    4) SUCCESS-> launched Premiere Elements 11 without issue
    Hope this helps a few others!
