Premiere Pro CS6 increasingly crashing...

Hi, running CS6 on iMac 10.8.5 and had no problems for the first year or more. Then - and I've not found anyone else with this issue - every time I closed the application, it gave me a crash message, even though nothing appeared to be harmed or lost. Now, it has started to freeze and crash more often, and it's also giving the 'serious error' message half way through exports. I uninstalled the suite, and reinstalled - same behavior in Premiere. Wondering if I need to wipe the system clean, then reinstall, but that's a big process and would like to avoid if possible. And, before uninstallling, I wiped the preferences out with shift-option. That didn't seem to help either.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Sean

Hi Sean,
You may want to run the CS Cleaner and then reinstall Premiere Pro. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
A lot less time then wiping the entire system. Does that work?
Thanks,
Kevin

  • Premiere Pro cs6 keeps crashing when im editing or rendering a video

    When I am on Adobe Premiere Pro cs6 every 10-20 mins it crashes when im editing a video, it crashes more often when im rendering it (export media, ctrl+M). I dont mind when it crashes while im editing because i save the file regularly but when im rendering its a problem, it probably because the file is too big as i use dxtory to record skyrim but this is an expensive product so it should be able to render. I encode the file once ive chosen the format and stuff for the video and it says finish rendering in 50 mins or so and when it gets to like 4% rendering it says not responding. It then troubleshoots but then says 'close program'. this is very frustrating, please can someone help me. I've looked through the forums but i dont uinderstand many of the solutions as im not that good at computers

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Constantly Crashing

    I am having the worst time using Premiere Pro CS6.  The program is constantly crashing, saying it has encountered a serious error and has to close.  This is happening during the most basic operations like scrubbing the timeline or pressing play.  I am using footage strait from my Canon 7D (h.264) with no effects or filters.  I have all the latest updates to the software and my computer.  No other programs are open during these errors.  I'm using a 2011 MacBook Pro i7 8GB RAM with AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB and OSX 10.7.4. 
    I wanted this to be an alternative to FCP 7, but so far it is not working out.
    Any ideas?

    Happening to me too. Constant "serious error" crashes, usually when I'm doing hardly anything at all. One project was working with just a couple images and it was particuarly awful. Like you, H264 footage are a common thread.
    I'm a Mac Pro 3,1 2x2.8GHz Quad-Core, 10.7.3 (will try updating), 8GB RAM, GTX285, 6.0.1 and CUDA 4.2.7. GPU Driver Version says 7.18.11 270.05.20f02.
    As it stands I can't get anything done. My experience w/ CS6 so far has been to finish one project (2 tracks of DV, one of H264) that was originally started in CS5, and I don't really remember having any problems. Software worked much better than CS5 actually. Tried another one from scratch, same setup, but I encountered the H264 media pending bug that's been reported elsewhere and had to give up, go back to CS5. Project I mentioned above, I could barely do anything w/o the program crashing. This fourth project, another 2 DV/1 H264, I haven't encountered any problems playing back the footage yet, but this is when the software because very unstable.
    My console is FULL of "invalid drawable" errors

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Randomly Crashes During Preview

    Hello,
    I've searched and gone through various threads where crashing has been posted and none of the solutions have helped thus far. 
    There are two issues that I would encounter doing the most basic of tasks such as previewing a clip within Premiere Pro CS6:
    -  The preview screen will freeze and I am unable to see the video. 
    -  The program will cause my video driver to encounter a serious problem and recover. 
    Here are my specifications:
    Sony Vaio
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Operating System
    Intel Core i5 2.40ghz
    8 Gigs of Ram
    ATI Radeon HD 6470m Graphics Card
    The temporary solution to both that I have found effective is closing down the program, then opening task manager, ending the Adobe Premiere process and restarting Adobe Premiere.  If I don't do this then the program can't be opened. 
    Here are some of the solutions I've implemented without any positive changes:
    -  Ensured display driver / graphics card is updated (ATI Radeon HD 6470m)
    -  Closed all other programs
    -  Couldn't change GPU acceleration because the video card doesn't allow it.
    -  Disabled Hover Scrub
    I've spent a few days researching this and I'm very sorry for posting a question in regards to this issue.  However, I can't seem to find the help I need from Support because their phone system is down and I can't use the ticketing system because I'm using the Adobe Creative Cloud.  I would appreciate any help in advance.  Thank you. 

    Just finished the phone call from Adobe support. 
    The solution to the problem is if Premiere freezes, create a new sequence and import your video into the new sequence.  He didn't know the specifics of what caused the issue, but should it happen again, I'd have to just tansfer the video into a new sequence.  my project has not malfunctioned in the past hour. 

  • Premiere Pro CS6 continually crashing on startup

    PP CS6 has been continually crashing on opening the program every time today - gets to initial windows screen and then crashes.
    Have uninstalled program, downloaded and reinstalled but same problem. Crash report as follows:
    [Please don't post crash reports here in the forums.  It makes the thread unwieldy.  Instead, send those as an attachment if you get a PM from an Employee asking for it.]

    Uninstalled again and downloaded latest version (CS6) from Adobe site - Premiere Pro 6 LS7 (unable to ascertain exact build because crashed again before being able to look at build number)
    Running on Mac OSX 10.7.4
    Macbook Pro 17"  2.2GHz Intel Core i7
    8GB ram
    Program opens up windows, followed by Mac spinning ball before crashing
    Program had been stable until today - VLC was opened for first time use last night. I uninstalled it before reinstall of Premiere Pro to see if it caused a conflict, but same resulting crash.
    No other software running at time of last number of crashes. Macbook Pro is my field machine and therefore has variety of applications for broadcast use (newsgathering use) including Audition, Photoshop and FCP7.
    No third party effects or hardware installed

  • What can I do to stop Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 from crashing when exporting?

    Regardless of whether I have a new project file or an existing one, edits or no edits, whenever I click export, Premiere Pro simply crashes.  Same for Media Encoder - can't even open that one.  I have all of the latest CS6 updates installed, the computer is brand new as of two weeks ago - OSX 10.9.1, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB.  The only way I've been able to export is through a backdoor: I use the dynamic link in After Effects, then render out my sequences there.  Help?

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 constantly crashes when importing video files

    I have not used Premiere Pro in a while, but recently when I tried to import video files (from .m4v, .mp4 and .mov) the program stops working, the "importing" window doesn't progress and I get the rainbow wheel of "death".
    I read some other posts where some are having similar situations and some users suggested moving the file from an external hard-drive to an internal one (I have a 1TB external hard-drive) but that didn't do squat either.
    Once the program is frozen I'm forced to "force quit" the program.
    Does anyone know what I can do?

    I am having the same problems, but my program locks up when trying to playback .MTS files that are shot natively on my GH2.  It will not render or export anything & when you try and scrub or playback footage it gets the spinning wheel of death.  To finish my last project, I had to transcode all the .MTS files to .MP4 files and it worked fine.  Also, anytime I shut down PP, I have to force quit the program for it to shut down.  Here are the detailed info you asked for...
    What version of Premiere Pro? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Pro CS5.5 with the 5.5.2 update).Premiere Pro CC (trial) 7.1.0 - 141 (because I uninstalled CS5, 5.5, & 6 thinking they may be the problems.
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.) YES, up to date
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac”. OSX 10.9
    What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime”..MTS files from a GH2
    If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?It tells me that it is an unknown error (I do not have a copy of the original error message)
    What were you doing when the problem occurred?Trying to playback (wheel of death), Trying to Render and export (starts rendering, then just sits there and then gives the unknown error)
    Has this ever worked before?I have worked on this projects for a few months, then just out of the blue it started with these problems about 1 week ago.
    What other software are you running?none
    Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?some from Video Copilot and Plural eyes 3 (NOT used on this project)
    Tell us about your computer hardware. Be especially certain to tell us about third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU).
    iMac 27in Mid 2011 3.4 Intel Core i7 16 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3 AMD Radeon HD6970M 2048 MB OSX 10/9 (13A603)
    No external devices, except a external hard drive.  I changed from a Thunderbolt Seagate 1TB (single 7200 RPM) to a Drobo Mini 2 TB RAID 5 in the MIDDLE of this problem, thinking the issue was the drive was to slow to keep up - NOT the case… it still happens with the new drive.
    Are you using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration?I am not completely sure to be honest - I believe it is the factory settings.
    Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both?both!

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Crashing

    I've seen some discussions on this but not on the exact problem I've been having,  which is my Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 always crashes when I'm layering either two videos or two audio tracks on top of each other.  If I stack two files and then scrub, then it immediately crashes every single time. I've never had a problem with CS5.5 when doing such an operation.
    Help!
    Canon 7D Footage
    1080P 24fps
    ESata Externanl HDD
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    Core i7
    12 GB ram

    I am having a similar issue that I have nailed down to two specific audio tracks.  When I play audio on these particular tracks, which have Compressor and Denoise plugins on the track mixer, I get the crash error.  Understand, the Compressor and Denoise effects are not on the audio itself.  When I move the audio up to the adjacent tracks above, there is no crash or error, but of course, I don't get the effects that I desire. 
    I solved the problem by right clicking and "Remove Audio Effects..." of which I had a 6 db boost in "Volume".  I made up the gain on the Compressor plugin on the track.
    FWIW I also get the "Audio filters missing" pop-up when I open the project.  This stems from me creating audio presets, applying them to files, and then the preset effects are unable to be recalled when I re-open the project.
    I am in Premiere cs6 on a 2.8 Ghz Intel Core i5 iMac running OSX 10.8.2 w/ 4 GB of RAM.
    Hope this helps...

This has been happening increasingly more over the past couple weeks, but starting last night and today - it has happened so much that I cannot get more than 5 minutes of work done without it crashing. It has happened on saves, renders, playback, switching active timelines, removing the mojo effect from a clip, and while sitting dormant. I’ve had the computer less than a year and hope that it is not a serious problem with my RAM or graphics card.

    I realize this is a general error message and there are several forums posted from mostly more than 5 months ago. I cannot seem to find an answer that will help me. Here is what I have already tried:
    1. updated to Maverick
    2. checked for updates for Adobe software
    3. Cleared the Media Cache
    4. Switched from CUDA to software only
    5. Updated CUDA and switched back to CUDA in premiere
    6. Held SHIFT while starting up (nothing seems to happen or pop up on screen at least)
    Next:
    —Going to uninstall Premiere and reinstall.
    Any suggestions or possible fixes are great appreciated. What should my next step be?

    UPDATE:
    STEP 1:
    Uninstalled and reinstalled Premiere - worked without crashing for the longest time since yesterday. After 1 hour of running - it crashed once again with same error message and same report (see below).

    Exception Type:  EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
    Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000
    Application Specific Information:
    *** CFRelease() called with NULL ***
    STEP 3:
    Going off of the idea that it may be the plugin causing the issue (since it needed to be updated) I went into the project and deleted all of the files containing this effect in this project file (note: i have used this for 10+ projects on this computer with no trouble).
    I thought it was fixed, from about 8:00 PM - 11:45 PM no crash - then as I was playing back clips - crashed again.
    I have been loosely following these guidelines: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-mac.html
    I am not sure where to go from here - should I continue into the "advanced troubleshooting" even though I'm not sure if any of these things are related.
    IMPORTANT NOTE: I have launched two other Premiere Project Files (from previously completed projects) successfully without crashing. I tested a few things in the projects before returning to the problem project. If I suspect there is a problem with the file in particular - how do I find out what is causing the problem?
    --I already removed MOJO effects thinking that could be the issue from the last files that were
    --I have already gone back to a previous version from a week ago and imported the Sequence I needed. Still crashed.
    I have sent 5+ reports to Adobe on the crash. Any feedback into this is much appreciated.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Trial Mac crashes on launch

    I installed Master Collection CS6 on my Mac Pro tower 3,1 quad core, 16 GBs RAM.  I set up a new video project in Premiere and all was going fine, loaded all assets, etc ... Next I was attempting to set up audio hardware for recording a narriation on a track.  I was using a USB VoIP device.  I could not arm a track for recording, so I figured audio hardware needed set up.  My VoIP was already selected in Preferences>Audio Hardware once inspected, but I still could not arm a track.  So, I tried Utilities>Midi Set Up>Aggregate Audio Devices to add my headset to Premiere Pro.  Headset was in list but I could not add anything to premiere.  Everything I checked automatically unchecked once selected. 
    Back to square one.  So I unhooked my headset, went to Preferences>Audio Hardware and attempted to select a Built-in I/O device. Then, Premiere just crashed. 
    Everytime I try to open premiere it crashes.  I rebooted, tried a different project, etc .... nothing! 
    So ... h e l p !

    You are right , to use the trial you do not need the serial number however it is a prompt screen that comes up at the time of launch so that you can serialize the software and turn it to full version also it let you know the number of days left for the trial.
    In your case it seems to be different , BTW what is your OS  ? Premiere Pro CS6 will only work in 64 bit OS actually, it will get install on only 64 bit OS so that might be the reason you have only Encore present not Premiere Pro.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 on Mac crashes when attempting to capture HDV

    I've seen this topic previously but without an answer and was hoping for an update. I'm using Premiere Pro CS6.0.5 on a MacPro running 10.9.2
    The camera is a Sony HDR-FX7. When in the capture window, the camera is recognized. I can rewind and fast forward but when i push play it immediately crashes and gives the "serious error" notice.  The camera settings are set to HDV in the VCR setting and PremierePro is set to HDV capture format as well.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 Crashes on Render Timeline and also Export

    Hi, The Last few days Premiere Pro has been crashing during either export of a sequence or during render of timeline.
    This also happens if I import the timeline into AME and try to render from there.
    The Files on the timeline are 720x576 progessive @25fps Avi Type 2's
    I've tried outputting to a number of file types with the same crash. Also I have Premiere Elements on the same machine and this does the same!
    This had been working fine the past few weeks, can't understand why its stopped now.
    I've also tried uninstalling CS6 and reinstalling it. and also keep all updated..
    Also reading some other posts, i also uninstalled Itunes in case the latest update has caused problems. Unfortunately i don't have  restore point from before the problem started happening
    although i do have a backup on another drive.
    I should also mention that i've done a number of virus scans as well with a couple of products just in case of that.
    Machine is Win 7 64 bit.  I7 Quad 2600 (3.4gig), 10gb Ram, Blackmagic extreme input card, and Duo input card. The Video Card is internal to the board (Intel HD Graphics...which performs ok for what i need it for )
    any help would be appreciated to get up and running again.
    cheers

    Well, I think i finally have got to the root of it...These files were recorded using Blackmagics Mjpeg Compressor, and that seems to be the problem.
    Rather than recoding the files (difficult as AME would fall over as well!) I ran them through my digital desk again (Vmix) playing them back and re recording them using AVi and the normal dv option...this time the files produced would render and output...hoorah  now see if i can finish it..will report back, but this seems to have sorted me out.
