Premiere Pro CS6 not locating media, freezing

For the last couple of days, Premiere Pro on my laptop (15" Apple Retina MacBook Pro, 12gb ram, 2.7GHz i7 - USB 3.0 Lacie drive) has been having trouble locating media. When I open a project, the "Locating Media" diologe shows the progress bar start moving, then stop and not move again. Hitting "Cancel" makes the pinwheel of patience come up. When I use the "Command + Option + ESC" command, Premiere Pro CS6 is not shown as "Not Responding". Force quitting the app and restarting the computer doesn't do anything to change this behavior.
Would appreciate any guidence on how to remedy this.

Good Day,
I am using Premiere Pro CS6 and I have been been doing metalogging for my film. I am having this issue of locating media when I changed my project over from a failing hard drive to a new one, I left the project on OVERNIGHT to locate media and its in the same spot. With such metalogging I have only been changing the names and descriptions of the files in the bin and I have a good few days work done on it. Is there any way to save the integrity of that bin without having to start an entirely new project over and start from scratch. This is most annoying.
I don't believe I have any corrupt rendered files, perhaps its a corrupted video?
Any help would be appreciated as I see no fix or announcement has come up for this problem yet.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 not playing audio on imported MP4 files.

    I am editing a series of MP4 clips shot with a Canon Vixia, and for some reason, Premiere Pro CS6 will not play the audio on a few of the imported files. All of the clips were videotaped with the same camera. I know that there is audio on the clips in question, because it works fine when they are opened in Windows Media Player. I have deleted and reimported the faulty files, to no avail. I noticed in the online discussions that several others have had this problem; but I haven't been ablet o find an online fix thus far. I would greatly appreciate advice on this!

    I have a Canon Vixia HFS100, which saves AVCHD files to an SD card... exactly what model is your camera?

  • After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

    After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
    If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
    This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.
    See this document for details:
    "64-bit Windows required for After Effects and Premiere Pro CS6"
    In general, you can only download and use applications for which your computer system meets the minimum system requirements.

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!

  • Premiere pro cs6 capture settings/media offline

    I'm trying to capture footage from my Sony HDV camera to Premiere pro cs6. After capturing it shows up in my project as an mp3 file and when I transfer to the timeline it says media offline. Can anyone please help?? When I import a file from cs5 project it says media offline also. When I import say an .flv file it works fine. I have matched the capture setting to that of cs5 so I'm rather confused...

    To restore default preference settings and plug-in cache at the same time, hold down Shift-Alt (Windows) or Shift-Option (Mac OS) while the application is starting. Release the Shift-Alt keys or Shift-Option key when the splash screen appears.
    Try if this works. It is weird that this happens. I have never had it with CS5+/6 both with Win7 and Win8.

  • Default Premiere Pro CS6 Export Location

    I had to edit videos of mine into a documentary for an assignment at university and am now looking for the place where i exported the finished work to. I know it was saved into some strange location that I hadn't chosen because it took me a while to figure out how to choose the destination for the export. So, I'd like to know if anyone can help me find that folder, it was what I assume to be the default Adobe Premiere Pro Cs6 export destination. I need to find the finished project for another assignment...

    Premiere remembers the last export location.

  • Does Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 not support the Quadro K2000D GPU card?

    I can't get the Premiere Pro CS6 to recognize that Quadro K2000D is installed on my computer.  I'm running Windows 7.  I see in the list that Quatro 2000D and Quatro K2000 is listed as supported but I haven't come across Quatro K2000D.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 not loading/linking preview files - any suggestions?

    MacPro 2010, 16-core, 2.66 GHz, 32GB RAM, Quadro 4000, OS X 10.7.4
    When I save a Project and then reopen it, Premiere Pro CS 6.01 does not load the Preview Files from the Renders.  I have checked the specified Preview Files location and the files are there.
    In order to work, I must render the entire Project again - which is too time-consuming and counter-productive.
    Am I doing something wrong?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Same problem. I've done many projects in CS6 and this is the first time it's happened. FIrst half of the timeline was fine but the second half of the timeline, that was previously fully rendered, couldn't locate the preveiw files. The preview files are still in the preview folder but it doesn't see them in the timeline anymore. How do you delete those preview files since they are no longer recognized in the timeline? I know you can manually delete them in the preview folder by playing them and matching them to the video clips in the timeline.

  • Speedgrade crashing and not roundtripping with Premiere Pro CS6 (NOT CC)

    I am using Speedgrade CS6 (not CC).  I have two questions.  1.  When rendering my graded material to h.264 from Speedgrade, it crashes and the .mp4 that I get is choppy and incomplete.  Also, a secondary issue is that I would like to edit in Premiere, color grade in Speedgrade and then roundtrip back to Premiere for editing and encoding.  Is this possible?  Please help!

    Ask in the Prem/ SG forums. And just to point out an obvious flaw in your current workflow: Why would anyone render a sequence to a compressed format like H.264 after going out of the way to grade it for further editing? Makes no sense whatsoever, considering that once you edit it in Premiere and export it from there you add anorther pass of compression. Use DPX, TIFF, QT Animation or similar.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 not recognizing audio in imported video

    I'm a bit of a Premiere Pro novice, and I just started working with CS6. For some reason, when I import an h264 .mp4 video clip into my bin (via dragging it from a Finder window), then place it on my timeline, there's no audio. Same goes for export. I know for a fact that the source file did have audio; what am I doing wrong?

    What camera make/model is the source?
    Did you copy the entire folder from the camera to your hard drive?

  • Premiere Pro CS6 not responding after adding anything to timeline

    I had been using Premiere CS6 successfully for a while, but starting a few months ago, it started not responding after I did anything.  I can add a title and a transition succesfully to the timeline and it plays fine, but as soon as I add a picture or video clip, it immediately stops responding.  It's frustrating because the program used to work fine before.
    The only thing I can think of that might have affected it was when I upgraded to Mavericks, but I haven't read anything about any serious problems with Premiere running on Mavericks.  I have a late 2008 MacBook Pro.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

  • Premiere pro cs6 hangs when media browser search for BVAP folder (from sony EX3 camera)

    what do i need from opening these files?

    Im have the exact same issue with the importing or P2 files and premere crashing/ hagingup, i on the other hand have been using adobe for over 4 years and never had this issue, i still have CS5 on comp and there are no problems there, kinda silly i cant use CS6 for work....
    so what did you exactly do to fix issue??
    also i know exactly what porblem u are running into with the aspect ratio problems, been an issue for as long as i have been working with adobe premere and HVX, and i can help u there, simply dont use DVCproHD sequence if you are going to DVD just do a DV widscreen sequence and all the ratio problems will fix when u go to encore. or use DVCproHD sequence but drop the entire sequence you worked on into a DV widscreen sequence or an HDV sequence and resize acordingly (make lager or smaler so fits properly in 16/9) the problem is some of the P2 cameras are not a true 16/9 there like 15/9 or somthing, its odd, anyway thats what i do, it doesnt really ad much time and it workes
    Dear adobe plp if you read this, then you know about problem importing, whatever he did dosnt seem like you should have to do that... any questions feel free to contact me.

  • Why is Premiere Pro CS6 not recognizing my Photohop .PSD files?

    "Photoshop" is not even listed as a supported file in the File Type section.
    If I select to view all files and then import a PSD file, I recieve the following:  Error Message "File format not supported."
    This is completely bizarre.  

    If you look in Windows Explorer (if you are on a PC - I don't know where to look on a Mac), when you select a Photoshop file does it have the right Icon, or does it point to a different application?

  • Adobe Premiere Pro cs6 not opening 2 channel audio videos

    1,
    2.

    Welcome to the forum.
    I agree with John T., regarding some MP3 material. See this article: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4146900#4146900
    If you are having issues, when using Audio, but no Video, you might want to try one of two things:
    Create Black Video (from the New Icon), and place that onto Video Track 1. Extend that to cover the music files.
    Create Transparent Video (from the New Icon), and perform the same operation.
    When you go to Export, just choose Export Audio only, if you want no Video Stream.
    Good luck,

  • 720p 120fps clip from GoPro Hero3 Black not recogniced by Premiere Pro CS6

    Hello. My clip from Hero3 Black Gopro isn't recognized as a 120fps clip. I've read people saying that this is normal because premiere pro won't recognize them for anyone.. But it does, look at this clip:
    http://youtu.be/YeHCUNH4KcM
    At around second 30 it shows how it recognizes that the file is actually 120fps, in that same screen, I get that the file is 59,94fps and not 120fps and it really is.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you.

    I've created a few sample files for anyone interested. These files are straight from the camera.
    Here is a 1280 x 720 at 60 fps: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/92935787/1280x720%2059fps.MP4
    Here is a 1280 x 720 at 120 fps: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/92935787/1280x720%20119fps.MP4
    Here is a 1280 x 960 at 100 fps: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/92935787/1280x960%20100fps.MP4
    Import these into Premiere Pro CS6 or even Media Encoder CS6 or After Effects, have a look at the metadata and both of the 720p videos will show up as 60 (59.94) fps. I tried this in Premiere Pro CS5 and had the same result.
