Premiere Pro Continues to Stop Unexpectedly

I have imported several hours of footage & audio for a feature film. The media didn't have a lot of metadata so I am manually adding the date on the front of the name of each file so relinking will be easier incase media goes offline during the project. In the "Shot" collumn I am labeling each shot after referencing the slate. Pr CS6 continues to shut down unexpectedly. Each time I open it back up it recovers all changes - even if I hadn't saved for a while.
Yesterday I turned of the AutoSave (I save every few minutes as a habbit anyway) and that helped for the rest of the day. Today the problem has come back...I sure hope this isn't somewhere else in another discussion, I couldn't find it though. Thank you for your time and help!

Sorry guys, I'm still learning. Thank you all for the links and help.
UPDATED INFO:
My Problem: As I label media in the "Shot" column (see graphic) Premiere Pro continues to stop unexpectedly (see graphics for error messages). Each time I open the project again it recovers all changes made - even if I haven't saved for a while.
My Hardware: iMac 21.5-inch, Mid 2010 | 3.6 GHz Intel Core i5 | 16 GB 13333 MHz DDR3 | ATI Radeon HG 5670 512 MB | 4 TB G-RAID G-Technology HD as scratch disk, 3.57 TB available, Firewire800 connection
My Software & Media: OS X 10.8.2 | Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Version 6.0.2 | 295 GB of Footage Stills & Audio imported into Pr project | FOOTAGE: AVCHD 1080p, 23.976fps, square pixel, and I believe 4:2:0 8-bit 24mbps, 1 track of 48kHz stereo audio - shot on Panasonic af100 | STILLS: 1920x1080 .JPG screenshots taken with af100 | AUDIO: stereo 48kHz .wav files recored on Zoom H1 and Tascam DR-40
What I've already attempted: The crashes seemed to occur shortly after each time Pr Autosaved so I turned that function off (I manually save often as a habit). The problem ceased for half a day. The next day it came back. At the same time I was unable to download the Photoshop & Camera RAW updates (that seemed to be an internet connection issue). While rushing around in plugging/unplugging hard drives to manually save/backup the Pr files I accidentally unplugged the G-RAID - permanently corrupting the Pr project with no backup. I decided to update to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard, have a beer and watch a movie (heartbroken after loosing three days of label and organizing). Next day I updated to Mt Lion and the Ps & Cam RAW updates downloaded & installed smoothly (after restarting the wifi router). I deleted all unnecessary files/apps on my iMac. With everything cleaned out & updated I created a new Pr project. The media imported and conformed smoothly. Once I started labeling the files in the "Shot" column again, Premiere Pro crashed again wight he same error notice. I can keep going for now but this problem slows things down quite a bit.

Premiere pro 5.5 stops working when playing a sequence, saving a project or closing,any ideas why?

I can open a project, import files or other projects, but when I want to play the sequence the program stops working and closes. When I try to save the project or close the program I get a "software not responding" message.
I hope someone can help me with this as I cannot work on any projects.
thanks.

Hi john,
thanks for taking the time to help me. I have updated the software and rendered the files and now I am able to play them, but still neither the sequence nor the clip play/show on the corresponding screens, I can only hear the audio file. I also continue having problems when saving the project, the software stops working and I get the "non responding" error from microsoft.
As you suggested, and I have to say I am pretty much a dummy with the codecs and alike, I installed the mediainfo and run one of the files.
This is the info that appears on the screen
I am not getting any error messages from Premiere, so I am kind of stock. If you need other info let me know.
Thanks for your help and patience.

"Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 has stopped working" but was working fine a week ago...

On my desktop (Dell XPS 8300), I keep getting the error message "Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 has stopped working" when openng up a previously created project or trying to create a new one in Premiere Pro CS6.
On my laptop (MS Surface Pro 2), I can load projects and edit them, but I cannot export media. When I try, it just sits there and does nothing. I've also tried sending it to Media Encoder, but that doesn't help either. Sometimes, it crashes too.
I'm running Windows 8.1 on both with the latest updates installed.
Oddly, this started roughly around the same time on both computers.
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing, but that didn't help.
I've run the Windows troubleshooter and that didn't help either.
I've tried running as an administrator, and running the program in compatibility mode for Windows 8, 7 and Vista - that doesn't solve the issue either.
At this point, I can't do any work and am even considering paying for CC even though I just dropped $700 on CS6 last year, but I'm wondering if that would even solve the issue, or if the CC version would also not work...

>started roughly around the same time on both computers
Most likely cause is a Windows update that changed "something" about the video system
Check the vendor site (NOT Windows update) for a newer video driver

This was patch week for Microsoft... if you let Windows update, you MAY need to check your graphics adapter driver
•What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
•What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
•Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
•For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information

Premiere Pro CS5.5 Quit Unexpectedly. Mac 10.10.2.

Hey there,
My Mac just started popping up with the "Premiere Pro CS5.5 Quit Unexpectedly" box. Nothing has been done differently and the program has been working for years. Any help?
My Mac is a 2011 17" and currently has OSX Yosemite 10.10.2.

Hi Rotorbound,
Nothing has been done differently and the program has been working for years.
You updated OS X and that's a pretty significant change to your system. Have you tried common troubleshooting techniques?
Try the following:
Choose Help > Sign Out. Restart Premiere Pro. Choose Help > Sign In
Update any GPU drivers
Trash preferences
Ensure Adobe folder preferences are set to read/write in all 3 locations.
Delete media cache
Delete preview files
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
Repair permissions
In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
Disconnect any third party hardware
If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCL
Disable App Nap
Reboot
Report back if anything here worked for you.
Thanks,
Kevin

Premiere Pro CS5 playback stops with Canon DSLR footage

I am using Canon DSLR footage (5D and 1D). When I import the footage for the first time everything works OK. If I save, close and reopen the project without doing anyother activity on my PC everything continues to work OK.
My problem is that after I close the project and start doing other activity on the PC e.g. using Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash etc and not necessarily all of them, and then reopen Premiere Pro I then start to get a problem with playback stopping on the timeline after about 5-10 seconds.
What I have found is that if I import a fresh Canon DSLR file from the camera then everything starts working fine again until I start using other programs.
There must be something on my PC that is causing a conflict but I can't work out what it is.
Are there any known issues that might help me solve this problem.
My PC is running Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit. I have two x 2.66Ghz quad core processors (NOT hyperthreading), 12 GB RAM, Nvidia FX 4800 graphics card.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have finally resolved this problem and it is several weeks since the "fix" with no repeat of the problem.
I uninstalled Nero from my system and straight away the problem resolved.
I noticed that prior to removing Nero that it was taking priority over Quicktime which, I think, was causing the conflict with codec for the Canon DSLR files in Premier.
It has now been 4 weeks since I removed Nero and there has been no sign of the problem of the video footage stopping in playback on the timeline.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 stops responding constantly--Adobe QT32 stops responding first

Since updating to Premiere Pro 2014, I can't spend more than about 45 minutes editing before Premiere stops responding. Usually in the middle of playback, or while scrubbing. Sometimes the audio will continue playing after the application becomes unresponsive. Every single time, Adobe QT32 Server has stopped responding before the rest of the application does.
Furthermore, once Adobe QT32 has stopped responding, Premiere cannot close, requiring a 'force quit' every time. Force quitting Adobe QT 32 Server does nothing.
Please advise. CC is expensive and Premiere Pro is almost unusable at the moment.

Here's an interesting article claiming this was a problem in AE 2012. I do think removing all of the QT codec components makes a difference as I put several back in and as soon as I sent my previously functioning sequence to export, QT32 crashed.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 quit unexpectedly.

I keep running into this issue. I really don't understand what is happening.
I have a brand new Mac Pro (Late 2013) with a 3GHz 8-core Intel Xeon E5 with 64GB of DDR3 and an AMD FirePro D700.
I run my machine with the latests version of OS X Yosemite.
I keep every Adobe program up to date.
I've been working straight off my internal 1TB SSD.
Any ideas or information would be great.
Thank you!

Are you running the following update? OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 Update
Is the SSD you are running your system on one you installed, or is it factory installed from Apple?
Are you testing with a brand new project file or one you updated from a previous version?
What happens to you precisely when this issue occurs? Are you working for 5-10 minutes, then the program freezes? Or do you get a warning dialog box?
Have you checked permissions for your Adobe folders (see my blog): Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
Have you tried trashing preferences (press Shift + Option while starting Premiere Pro)?
Thanks,

Adobe Premiere pro CS6 installation stops on Mac

I'm trying to install Adobe Premiere Pro on my new iMac. Operating system version is OS X 10.8.2 (12C3103).
However, soon after starting installation program, that gives an error message (translated from Finnish): "We encountered the following problems. The installation program was not possible to start. Load Adobe Support Advisor program and try to find the fault."
After running Support Advisor program, that gives the following message: "Inspection could not identify any issues. Please contact Adobe Support for further assistance."
What is wrong???

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Freezes/Stops Responding No Matter What I Do. Any ideas?

My Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 keeps freezing or not responding (pin wheel of death).
This problem started happening 3 weeks ago.
There is no one thing that triggers it, but it does seem to happen more often when trying to read my media from the media browser. Sometimes I get an application error report, and other times I don't.
This happens whether I start a new project, or work in an existing one.
I would appreciate any help the community can provide. I've tried just about everything I could find online from changing random system configurations like language to completely re-installing the software.
Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide.

Premiere Pro CS 3 stops working

Hello, I have been using Premiere Pro CS 3 without a problem on a 3 year old PC with Windows Vista, 32 bit, 4 GB RAM. The other day, in the middle of editing (I was about 17 minutes into my timeline), the program crashed, and later so did my computer. The computer is up and running again, but I cannot get Premiere to open properly now. I get the splash screen, and some of the little "retrieving this and that" notices flash briefly, then I get the basic program frame with the Premiere Title at the top and an otherwise white screen, and then it closes. It does this regardless of whether I open it from the start menu, or by opening the actual premiere file. I reinstalled the program without any improvement at all. It was working fine, now it's not. Any ideas out there?
Desperately yours, and thanks in advance,
Steve Forrest

John,
Thanks for your suggestion. (I know how to do this as I have used the same keystroke combo while working with InDesign)I tried numerous times, though, and I just couldn't get it to "catch." Is there some way to delete the preferences file (or reset it) by navigating through the file structures?
My brother is a serious geek in Berkeley. We used Crossloop and he tried a bunch of things, including:
Uninstall and reinstall QuickTime
Create a new account.
He used the command prompt and did a lot of rooting around that I didn't really understand, but he renamed several files, but it didn't change anything. (He went after the VST folder, if I recall, and also went after to folders in the Adobe Premiere Pro directory, one called Premiere Pro, and the other called PremierePro (without a space). Sorry I can't be more descriptive, but I'm not any kind of professional. He had googled our problem and was basically trying out various of the fixes that people had listed, including some from within the greater Adobe world.
So, still nothing. The weirdest part of this is that it was working fine, and had been for years, then all of a sudden it crashed, and now it doesn't even start up right. It's possible that one of the clips had some screwy time code info, but I don't see how that would account for this, and I'm not even sure that it's even the case.
The only new piece of behavior is that, while we were doing all this and trying to restart the program, I am also getting a screen telling me that my product is no longer licensed, or something like that (I didn't copy the exact wording). I don't know why that would be the case, and I'm not aware of the product "expiring" in that way. Again, totally new.
I'm all ears if you have any other suggestions. Thanks so much for your time.
Steve Forrest
PS I have purchased a Windows 7 upgrade. I will be trying a complete reinstallation of Premiere, then will be doing the Windows 7 upgrade, then will try another complete reinstallation of Premiere (assuming the earlier doesn't work to change this.)

"Adobe Premiere Pro CC has stopped working" Every-time unless I disable 2 of my graphics cards.

Whenever I re-enable either of my 2 graphics that it doesn't seem to like it gives me that error right away when it tries to start up.
Here is my Speccy info: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/YidTg7uD20BVpMUkaIZ0vfg
Any help getting Premiere to work without having to disable those 2 graphics cards would be great, I'm useless without all my monitors!
Thanks,
Chris

After the Premier Pro CC update in early December, I was unable to start PP at all. (The subsequent upgrade didn't help.) During the startup process, the program would crash telling me that I needed to update my graphics card driver.
After a month -- about ten hours of remote operation of my computer by Adobe techs -- working with Adobe Support (knocked upstairs three times), they determined that the newest version of PPCC does not accept a dual graphics card configuration (it doesn't know which one to choose so determines that both cards are invalid).
Their solution was to revert my machine back to v7.0 and fill out a "Bug" report. I am to wait until they fix the problem before I allow an upgrade.
