Premiere Pro 1.5 not initializing

I realize I need to upgrade at some point just can't do it yet. I was directed to the forums here after two chat sessions and a phone call with support. Seems this is the only support for Pro 1.5
Here's my issue. Software purchased in 05 and was an online download so I have no disc to reinstall. Program works fine at my office location which has the Matrox card. Program at home (where I do most the work) will not open. It launches straight to the "initializing program" then nothing, just closes.. no errors shown. I recently changed my IP address which I think might be the problem since you can't have the program installed on three computers.  I have used the program on this computer for 6 years.  Any ideas on getting me up and running here? I have edits coming up soon : )

If you have the program installed (whether that is currently the case, say if you had a crash on one), then about the only course of action would be through Adobe Customer Support (not Technical Support), as they have the ability to reset things for you. I assume that you have the full downloaded installation file(s). If not backed up to a DVD, I would strongly advise doing this now.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Premiere Pro CS6 does not recognize USB PnP Sound device connected  to iMac OSX even when activated in Audio MIDI setup. The iMac(i-7 processor,16 GB)   is working with this USB device without any problem

    Premiere Pro CS6 does not recognize the USB PnP Sound device in order to produce a commentary sound track. The USB device has been activated on the iMac OSX by using the Audio-MIDI-setup and is working correctly with the iMac. When opening > presets >audio hardware I can only select between >standard >out  integrated > digital input integrated >microphone integrated. USB PnP is not indicated at this place.
    With the built-in microphone of the iMac I can produce the commentary sound track, but I would prefer a stand alone version for better quality.
    Your help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Annemarie!

    I'm using a Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 (which has a microphone on the side). I have several other devices plugged into separate USB slots: a keyboard, a mouse, my iPhone, and a Roland keyboard midi controller.
    I've considered that maybe the webcam/mic combo is the culprit. If USB doesn't work at a constant speed, that could very well be causing the issue! The sound begins to lag badly sometimes when it's working properly, so that there's a multisecond delay between speaking and hearing my voice repeated back over the mic which is another sign that something is wrong. I've also caught it making a strange electronic sound during its "hang" time once it stops taking sound input correctly.
    Maybe I should try to use line-in and forgo USB altogether then. I think I'd need a preamp and some sort of converter for that since the Mac Mini lacks a powered mic jack. I'm only a newbie musician so I've never set up such a system but it might be a better solution in the long run.
    I'll check to see if it hangs before or after my computer enters suspend mode, that's a good suggestion too. Thank you for your help!

  • Why won't premiere pro cc will not let me add an adjustment layer

    why won't premiere pro cc will not let me add an adjustment layer

    Glad that you got the adjustment layer issue worked out. Not quite enough info to troubleshoot the other problems. The following page outlines the kind of info that helps zero in on the cause of such problems: FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?
    As to the cache files and rendered previews, you do not need to keep them. Premiere will regenerate them as needed. Because re-conforming the audio and re-rendering the sequence takes time, you probably want to keep those files around for the current project--unless, of course, you have reason to think that the cache or render files are causing problems.
    To keep things clean and get the attention of more people, it would probably be best to start a new thread for the other issues.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 does not handle AVCHD Files well.

    Loaded the master collection of CS4 when it first came out.  I had purchased CS4 for the AVCHD file format.  I had no problems using Premiere Pro until I ugraded to version 4.0.1 in March of this year then all AVCHD file selections dissappeared.  Hence, I could not create new AVCHD projects and the existing projects did not fuction properly.  I have been through a series of uninstalls (and deactivations) and reinstalls.  Reinstalls did not work.   Had to delete by renaming the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\7e74552a59eaf9fafd13f90894ac9bd to get the reinstall to work.  I have also used Windows Install Clean Up to remove all Adobe CS4 files that the windows "Add or Rmove Programs" did not remove.  When I did get the reinstall to work, Premiere Pro would work for awhile then became slow to the point the project became unusable.  Tried the all upgrades again and again the selection of AVCHD files dissappeared.  I do not need the AVCHD Intra capability.  The last uninstall I just uninstalled Premiere.  I could not reinstall Premiere until I uninstalled the entire master collection than the reinstall of just Premiere succeeded.  Premiere was totally unusuable.
    Has anyone had similiar issues with Premiere Pro and AVCHD files and were you able to resolve the problem?  I am considering removing all Adobe products, including past versions and trying the reinstall again, or create another profile and install just the Adobe products, or - the last resort - reformating my hard drive and starting over again.   I would like to get Premiere Pro working again properly before reformating.
    Previous versions of Adobe have worked with no problems.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 does not import EX1 files longer than 1 hour

    I had to record a long speech and used a Sony XDCAM HD EX1 camera with a 32 Gb and a 16 Gb SXS cards. The speaker paused after 1h 26 min. I stopped the recording and waited until the green light that allows recording the segment came on. Later I recored smaller segments.
    I copied all the recorded files to the PC hard disk ( Intel Quad Core 2.4 Ghz with 3.25 GB RAM with XP Proofessional SP3).
    I used Sony Clip browser to watch the clips and all of them were perfect. Then I opened premiere Pro CS4 4.21 and I wanted to import this 27 GB file. In the media browser appeared only one mp4 file. All the short ones where imported normally but the big one freezed premiere and the only way to close premiere was with the windows task manager.
    I checked again in the Sony XDCAM clip browser version 2.6 and you can see it perfectly. There was a detail, though: in the lower part of the preview window I saw 6 marks. When I checked the file in the disk, I found that the 27 Gb file was separated in 7 parts. Each of them was 3.51 Gb and the last one 2.5 Gb. That means that the file was cut in pieces that were less than 4Gb supposed max file lenght.
    I tried many ways to import and no result. The I used the "export " of the sony clip browser. There is one choice that is "MXF for XDCAM HD". When I chose this item another panel appeared and showed a 1440 X 180 59.94i 25Mbps choice. I took it and after some time it created the 27 Gb file that I could import it normally with 4 audio tracks. But there is a drawback a "media concept" logo appeared to remeber to "buy" the program.
    Anyhow, the question is: How can I import to Premiere CS4 a MP4 file created by a Sony EX1 HD camera whose lenght is more that 1 hour long ?
    Thanks
    Wolfgang

    I think  is the contrary because the clip browser copies all the foleders needed. I got this opinion from another forum that copies into Final Cut:
    "My workflow is to create a hard drive folder for the project, then use Clip Browser to import the clips from the card. I review the clips, labelling them, adding logging notes, setting the status and putting in essence marks as needed (the number of characters available for the essence mark description is fairly limited). I then open FCP, create and save a new project then call up XDCAM Transfer. I select the project folder and it will pull in all the clips. I then filter for OK status, occasionally create subclips then import. The clips come over to the bin, with their names and with the essence marks converted to markers. Obviously there are backups taken - I've not mentioned them."

  • After effects does not import video when I direct link from premiere pro.  Why not? how do i fix this?

    I wanted to add some motion tracked text elements into a clip of a interview in my premiere pro cc timeline. I left clicked on the clips that i wanted to "replace with after effects composition".. so i clicked it to and it opens a new comp in after effects.. Only there is no video opened in the comp.. Theres nothing there. I cant figure out why it doesnt bring the video in? Its not in my project panel in ae.. and ive tried direct link by left clicking the clip and going through the menu.. Tried closing AE and then doing direct link. Tried opening AE first and then doing it.. Not working no matter how i try it.  Whats the fix?
    Im using all CC products. Premiere is up to date, after effects is not. I will be updating it to see if that fixes the problem. As soon as I do. I will post a comment as to whether it fixed it or not. In the meantime i could use some help!

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CC does not open project - just hangs, no error message

    I've just finished editing a project in PP CC, saved it, then tried to reopen it and the program shows a blank page, then hangs.  I get no error message.
    The project is based off a PP 5.5 timeline.  It updates fine (and in fact I can open and convert the original timeline with no problem).  However, once I close the new version and try to reopen, this symptom occurs.
    I have updated my Creative Cloud software and it shows the Premiere Pro is up to date.
    My computer is an ASUS laptop running Windows 8.1 Pro
    i5 processor
    8GB RAM
    NVidea Geforce 610M+2GB graphics card
    Need help as I have to have this project output and uploaded by 8am tomorrow.

    This is a follow up to my original post and follow up.  I've now seen this issue several more times and realize it was not an issue with my USB drive.  It is an issue with the Dynamic Linking in Premiere.  I consider this a MAJOR BUG, so please note what I've found if you have an issue with archiving or opening projects done with previous versions of PP.
    The issue I've found is that Premiere seems to lock up trying to find dead media links.  If you've archived a project or moved files from their original position, Premiere CC cannot seem to find them.  The result is not a system hang up, but just a blank screen.  In some cases, after leaving it for a couple hours it found the media and continued.
    I've had a similar issue when trying to link 'dead' media with the actual files.  The system goes off into neverland.
    The work around I've found is to import the older jobs into a new Premiere CC project.  At that point, replace any dead links (do NOT try and find the media as you'll be lost in hangupville) by importing the media again and replacing the clip in the sequence with the new import from the bin.  Once all your media is 'live', remove any unused media from the project and confirm there are no 'dead' links (you can look at the media icon and notice a ? if they are not dynamically linked properly).  Manually clear any remaining unlinked media.  Save the project.
    I have started to use Project Manager to archive all Premiere projects when moving them from one server to another.
    This is a total pain in the @ss, and nothing I've seen before Creative Cloud.  I hope that Adobe gets this resolved or I may consider dropping my subscriptions completely.  That is a huge investment, but this type of issue is too much trouble to manage for a small production company.
    I welcome any other thoughts, fixes, or comments.

  • Premiere Pro CC does not open MOD files correctly

    Hi,
    I just started using the Adobe Creative Cloud as a trial, in particular the Premiere Pro CC software, since it might be relevant, I am working on a mac (completely updated as of yesterday).
    I have a JVC GZ-MG505 camcorder. This device saves the video files on an internal HDD in a file format called MOD. From what I have been able to see when searching on the web, this should be nothing more than a MPEG-2 file.
    So, I tried importing some video files into Premiere Pro and to my surprise, I noticed that a whole strip on the right hand side of the image is missing. The original is recorded in a widescreen (16:9) format with 720x576 pixels and Premiere Pro gives me a file with 540x576 pixels. I have tried using the Interpret Footage to change this, but it doesn't let me change the number of pixels. I also tried opening the files in Adobe Media Encoder and I have exactly the same results as in Premiere Pro. However, opening the files in VLC or mPlayer they come out exactly as expected with all the pixels there. Has anyone come accross this problem before or can anyone help me with solving this?
    I could try reencoding the files with VLC, but the output file is much smaller than the input file, so I am afraid I am loosing some definition.
    So, just to restate my problem, the adobe products open my MOD files without complaining, but for some reason they loose a strip 180 pixels wide on the right hand side of the image.
    Cheers

  • Premiere Pro CC does not embed 708 captions in QT

    Despite the fact that all of the online videos make it seem like exporting embedded closed captions is a breeze, it is not. After much experimentation I have found out there is no way to export 708 captions embedded into a QT file. I have been working with closed captions for a long time, and I am very familiar with the different pitfalls of closed captions. Why Adobe would chose to embed 608 captions only in an HD file is beyond me. To be excepted by broadcasters the captions must be 708 VANC Captions with the 608 alternative. Every time I get a file out of MACCaption this is what is included. I have tried to import those files into premiere pro CC and it does not see the captions.
    I have tried creating the Sidecar file as a .mcc file, and it seems to be correct. Unfortunately there is no way to embed this into a QT file.
    Kevin

    You are correct that 708 captions cannot be embedded in QuickTime files; they can be embedded in MXF OP1a outputs or written to sidecars. This is covered, albeit indirectly, at the bottom of this help page.
    Support for closed captions is a work-in-progress. CC7.0 provided support for CEA-608 and Teletext; support for CEA-708 was added in either 7.0.1 or 7.1. Of course, "support" is a loose concept, and work remains to be done on particular aspects of what exactly can be imported, how captions can be exported, and workflows for editing captions in a project. You can help us set priorities by submitting feature requests on what you think are the greatest needs.

  • Premiere Pro CC 64bit not utilizing GPU

    Hello all, first time poster here. 
    I recently built a new budget PC with photo/video editing in mind.    I'm running an AMD FX8350 with a ASUS GTX780-DC20C-3GD5 video card.   Windows 8.1 pro 64bit.   16GB HyperX Fury DDR3 1866mhz Memory.    Premiere pro seems to be identifying the video card correctly (Confirmed with GPUSniffer.exe), and it's defaulting to Mercury Playback Engine with GPU (CUDA) acceleration correctly.  Problem is whenever I'm using the program, be it editing in the time line, or exporting media, my CPU shoots up to 100% usage, while my GPU sits there barely nudging above 3% usage.    I've uninstalled and deleted the video card drivers, and reinstalled without success.    Also uninstalled and reinstalled Premier Pro CC and Media Encoder, without success.  The video card appears to function correctly when playing any games.     Everything that came with the card said Nvidia.  Could ASUS vs Nvidia drivers be the issue?  

    If you really want to see what the GPU can do go to our Premiere Pro Benchmark (PPBM) and run the appropriate version.  When you finish the benchmark and run the Statistics script it will show you a window like this:
    Notice line #3 which shows you your scores on the MPEG2-DVD timeline with first CPU (in my case 791 seconds) only and second with GPU assistance (57 seconds) and then the gain factor for using the GPU.  This timeline is heavily GPU assisted for benchmarking purposes.  Maybe you are not using any GPU assisted Effects or Features.  When you run the GPU assisted run your GPU Load will show 99% usage like this:

  • Adobe Premiere Pro Cs6 Will Not Open

    I have an issue.
    Essentially I began installing Adobe Premiere Pro, and it installed halfway before concluding it had allegedly finished installing all the updates.
    This is not true as I cannot click the application in Creative Cloud, and my arrow remains as the standard cursor.
    This is the second time this has happened, as I was forced to reinstall Creative Cloud and all of my Applications.
    I thought a clean install would have helped the situation but it seems to have made no difference, there is no way to open this application, it merely says that it has been installed though is completely unusable.
