Premiere Pro CC crashes when I import CS6 project files

I recently upgraded to CC, but every time I try to import my project file from Premiere Pro CS6 into Premiere Pro CC it crashes, or stops working if you like.
This is very irritating as I wanted to make use of the SpeedGrade workflow in the CC packaged between Premiere Pro CC.
My project file is no longer than 1 minute, however is does contain After Effects CS6 compositions, could this possible cause the crash? I have tried to import without these but it still stops working for some reasons.
Also I have no idea where to find the error log for crashes on Adobe software.

I have experienced similar crashes and timeline playback failure when importing a CS6 project into CC or CC 2014. I had to rebuild two projects by hand before I realized it was a bug in CC converting the CS6 project files to CC project files. I don't think this has been addressed yet, but I have had better luck starting projects from scratch in CC, not cross-converting a CS6 project. Although I'm still experiencing issues with multicam projects in CC 2014.
Curious to hear others chime in on this.

Premiere Pro CC crashes when I try to preview files.

Hi forum, I recently bought Creative Cloud as I got a new computer and felt like cloud based was the way to go.
But now when I try to preview clips in Premiere, it just crashes for no apparent reason.
I'm running on an i7 MacBook Pro Retina 15" with 16GB Ram, OS X 10.8.4 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024MB.
The files I'm trying to open are in .mov, 1080i.

Premiere Pro CC Crashing when Scrolling Through Sequence in Timeline - Audio Waveform Goes Blank First

The description is in the title: Premiere Pro CC Crashing when Scrolling Through Sequence in Timeline - Audio Waveform Goes Blank First.
Just started today, won't stop crashing now after a minute or two, and always does it when I scroll through the timeline of a sequence. The audio waveform goes blank first.
What is going on?

Premiere Pro CC crashes when importing media.

Premiere Pro CC crashes when importing media. Every time. Driving me crazy.
It crashes as soon as the Windows dialogue box comes up.
Does it in new projects and in a project I created and imported into just fine 2 days ago.
Have rebooted.
Running Windows 8.1 on Samsung Series 5 ultrabook Intel i5 - not too sure what else to say about other settings:
I did have a problem the other day when Windows was crashing when browing a large folder of largish images and video clips but it went away when I put images and videos in separate folders.

Thanks for reply.
Point taken but I've been using it for over a year for simple edits (5 min films) in PPCC just fine. Can't even do what I could do the other night now.
Simple folder with a few jpegs and movies in it. In fact it just crashes before I even got to another folder.

Premiere Pro CS5 crash when adjusting audio gain

Premiere Pro CS5 crash when adjusting audio gain
The same on another workstations.
Have any idea?

Hi Dennis,
I just had a go and can reproduce the problem straight away too.
Created a new project then a new XDCAM EX 1080p25 sequence. Imported a short Sony PMW-350 clip. Dragging it straight to the timeline and then setting audio gain is OK (Source channel mapping preferences set to mono).
However, if I Modify - Audio Channels and then set track format as stereo or mono as stereo and then drag the clip to the timeline and right click - gain, Premiere crashes about 1/2 to 1 second after the audio gain dialogue box appears. Error log below if it's useful.
Asus Rampage III extreme
Intel i7 980x @ 3.33GHz
24Gb ram
Windows 7 64 bit
Using onboard sound - Realtek HD 6.0.1.6037
Incidentally, I tried with both the default Windows 7 audio drivers and then the Realtek HD drivers installed (I'd previously forgotten to install the Realtek driver when I built the PC)

My quicktime is very jerky with 1080p video but when I play the video file in FCPX its smooth. I recently upgraded to OS mavericks on iMac with 16gb of ram and should not be having this problem. Is it possible to reinstall older software?

My quicktime is very jerky with 1080p video but when I play the video file in FCPX its smooth. I recently upgraded to OS mavericks on 2011 iMac with 16gb of ram and should not be having this problem. Is it possible to reinstall older software? I cant figure whats causing the jerky video so I'm assuming its the new OS. Any one have any suggestions?

I have the same but not the same problem. When I play a sound or a video on a website (other than youtube)on safari, a weird nois is comeing from the speakers, the sound has pops/clicks but if I play the same video/sound on mozilla it works fine.. If wnyone know what's the problem.. please let us know

Premiere Pro keeps crashing when using overwrite (.) shortcut in Source Monitor

When editing a clip in the source monitor and then using the (.) key to overwrite the clip onto my timeline Premiere Pro keeps crashing. If I select the Timeline window and then press the (.) key it works fine, but if the Source Monitor is highlighted and I press (.) it crashes every time and shows these windows:
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[/Volumes/BuildDisk/builds/mightykilt/shared/

Sequence/LinkContainer.cpp-184]
and then opens this one:
Adobe Premiere Pro
Sorry, a serious error has occured that requires
Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to
save your current project.
It saves my current project as a copy, which is good, but I've now ended up with lots of copies of the same project as it keeps on crashing. In order to work I have to make sure that the Timeline is highlighted before I use the shortcut. It makes for very precarious and tense editing!

I purchased my software from iSoftware.co.uk. I'm worried that could be the problem.
Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thank you.

A crash with a very similar error message was fixed in the new CC release. The bug report in that case involved creating a multi-cam sequence, so it might not be directly related.
If you have a chance to download the CC trial, we'd be interested to know whether the crash remains in the new version.

Premiere Pro CC crashes when editing audio- any solutions?

Adobe Premiere Pro CC crashes nearly every time I try to edit audio, keyframe it in certain spots, etc, etc, with the error message that there has been an "unexpected problem" and the program must "force quit." Sometimes my work is saved, sometimes it isn't. And then I have to re-name my saved file, so I often end up with upwards of 15 different project files because I cannot edit audio without this program crashing. I see I'm not the only one--what is Adobe doing to fix this bug-riddled program? It's impossible to get anything done!
I'm using this program on a MAC, 6-Core Intel Xeon Processor. MAC OS X Lion 10.7.5.
I'm ready to lose my mind.

I am having a very similar experience.....I have been working in Adobe Premiere Pro for well over 8 years and have always had issues with crashes when working with audio files, keyframing, transition placement, trimming and so on. I have had nightmares with some projects that I am having crashes every change I do and it seems once you get an issue with a project it only gets worst. I have worked on a number of different systems in regards to hardware and get the same issues, OS has been Windows 7 64bit for number of years. I would have expected Adobe to have been able to smooth this out by now but it just keeps rearing its ugly head when I`m on a deadline crunch.
I try to never work with Mp3s and always request wav but it doesn't seem to matter in the long run.
Just wanted to let you know you are not the only one and I am having a serous issue with this problem once again!
Please help Adobe....audio is an issue with Premiere Pro for a lot of us....thanks!

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 crashing when importing HDV Video

For some reason I keep getting crashes when importing HDV (720p60) video into the timeline of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6. This has happened on two different machines, with similar specs.
Per the suggested guidelines, here are the specifics:
Version of Premiere Pro: CS6, Version 6.0.5 (001 (MC:264587))
All updates have been installed.
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.8.5.
Source footage: HDV 720p60 video in .MOV container.
Full text of error message: "Sorry, a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
Link to full crash report: http://goo.gl/Gn8Bzn
Crash occurs when trying to import HDV .MOV file.
This is a consistent problem when importing .MOV files of this type.
Complete Adobe Creative Suite is installed. Also using Episode Pro encoding software from Telestream to prepare HDV video. No other external video hardware or codecs installed.
Yes, I am using the Mecury Playback Engine GPU acceleration.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me figure this one out.

Premiere Pro CC crashes when browsing/importing video files.

I've got a trial version of Premiere Pro CC installed today, running on a late 2012 iMac.
No problems during splash screen or project startup, but when I try browsing for a video file in the import box or attempt to drag and drop files from my local disk, a Premiere prompt says a fatal error has occured and shuts down. I haven't experienced this problem on other PCs/Macs.
The files I've tried all run smoothly when opened by VLC or QuickTime. Extensions tried so far: .avi, .mkv, .3ggp.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB
3,2 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)
If there are codec issues, trial version limitations or these types of files are not supported I would hope PP would say so instead of crashing abruptly?
Any help appreciated, I'm not an editing guru.

Premiere does not have trial limitations.
If vlc plays the files is no garantee Premiere will.
Premiere does not support mkv.
Premiere only supports dv-avi and 3gp.

Premiere Pro CS6 Crashes When Dragging

Trying to edit in PP CS6 and keep getting this error every time I drag files.
"Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project."
This happens every time I try to drag any footage. Regardless of files or locations.
I'm working (at least trying to) on a Mac Pro (Mid 2012) running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.
Processor- 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory- 16GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics- ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024MB
The Adobe applications manager says everything is up-to-date and I've tried everything I can think of.
Restarting computer.
Testing different video files in the project (happens with all)
Moving files to a different drive
Creating a new project on a different drive
Opening old project with footage that worked before.
No luck with anything. Any help is greatly appreciated! I've got deadlines to meet and no backup computer!

Hi, did you get anywhere with this? I am having a similar issue in Premiere Pro CC 2014.
The issue is as follows:
If I try to drag a clip, sequence, effect or transition ANYWHERE within the program, it will crash - with the serious error message. In order to 'reset' this, I HAVE to restart my machine. Once I have done so, I can continue editing as normal for a while (up to an hour, or so) but eventually, it WILL crash again.
The crash ONLY happens when drag something... This can include moving a clip on the timeline, dragging a clip form the source viewer or project window, dragging an effect or transition.
The crash happens after I have clicked, as soon as I start to move my mouse.
I CAN click and drag to extend in and out points on the timeline, and I can do 'insert' edit using the button on the source monitor. The footage plays fine.
I am trying this on a CLEAN OS X install, with only Adobe packages installed, to eliminate any potential of interference from other programs. There are no third party plugins or drivers installed.
My system is: Macbook Pro 2011, 16GB Ram, 1tb SSD, OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. Intel Graphics card, so no option to turn on or off hardware acceleration. It is set to software only.
I have tested this with projects and footage on an external drive, same issue.
I have been using the system on Mavericks and had no problems. I'm guessing it was either the update to Yosemite (I have reinstalled from scratch numerous times to rule out any errors during installation), OR a recent change to Premiere.
Interestingly, I have noticed that once this crash has occurred in Premiere, a similar problem will occur in After Effects. Again, until the machine is restarted.
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Premiere Pro CS4 Crashes When Importing HD Clips

I've used Camtasia forever but recently decided to "upgrade" to Premiere Pro when I got my new Macbook. Not being familiar with Premiere at all, I thought I would play with it with a few short clips. I have HD footage of my martial arts class which I shot with my Canon Vixia HG20 and copied it to my Macbook. However, when I imported a few clips into Premiere Pro and try to play it, it hangs. It will play one or two clips and then it stops responding after that.
All in all, it's only about 2 minutes of footage that I've put into Premiere Pro. I have no problems putting the clips into the Timeline but when I try to preview the clips (either in the source monitor or the program monitor windows), Premiere Pro gives me the little rainbow pinwheel and 20 minutes later, it's still spinning around. I bought a 500Gb external hard drive to use as the scratch disk because I thought maybe it was a space issue having everything on my Macbook but I still get the pinwheel. My only solution is to force quit the program.
I have a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro on OS X (10.5.6) with 4GB of memory, GeForce 8600M graphics card, and 200GB hard drive. I've read about a of of the crashes on here but didn't really see anything similar to my situation. Any ideas? I spent a lot on Premiere Pro and am not willing to give up on it quite yet.
Please and thank you!

17 Mbps is still at the high end, but IMHO they should ultimately work.
Very often with AVCHD, you have to play a clip until it freezes, then wait. If you monitor CPU usage during the waiting time, you'll see that it is quite active. The process using the CPU is the ImporterProcessServer, which has to do some kind of magical stuff to the AVCHD clips in order for them to play and scrub in Pr. Once the IPS is done, you should be able to scrub and play the clip just fine.
Usually you only have to do this once per clip, but sometimes more. Sometimes the work that the IPS does carries over between Pr sessions, and sometimes it doesn't.
Smaller frame sizes and lower bit rates in AVCHD video helps make the editing experience in Pr much better.
My hope is that the upcoming 4.1 update will address some of these AVCHD issues.
