Premiere Pro freezes and causes my computer to crash by re-writing the permissions inside my computer

Premiere Pro re-writes my permissions inside my computer and causes premiere to crash, run slow, restarts my computer in the middle of rendering, and freezes my whole computer.  I have a brand new 2013 Mac Pro with 12core, 16 GB of ram, and 6GB of GPUs.  I will even try and and edit very small HD files from a DSLR whether they are H264 or Pro Res files.  I will do something simple like a distortion correction on those files that are a minute long and it takes it 40 plus minutes to render if it makes it through without crashing the program or the computer.  If I run it for a while without restoring the permissions in the disk utility it makes my whole computer freeze and crash from just about every program.  I have spent many hours on the phone with apple re-installing my operating system thinking that hardware was my issue.  After doing so and installing programs like avid and final cut with Adobe products off the computer it worked perfectly.  Then when I install Adobe products like Premiere Pro on the very first render they will start to have the issues I have explained above.  I have contacted Adobe support and have spent like 20 hours over the last few weeks with them remote logging onto my computer trying to fix the issue.  Towards the end of the last call the guy I was talking too wanted to collect all the information he could to ask the engineers about my problem. He asked me over a dozen times if I had re-installed my operating system and I responded with yes I have each time.  He then changed his tune to the only way he will continue to help me is if I will again re-install my operating system and only put Premiere Pro on the computer just to see if that will work.  I have crazy deadlines and do not have time to go through that process again and again.  He also told me that lots of people with my same computer have the same issues but still wants me to re-install my operating system again.  I explained to him that I am extremely behind with my work (because of this issue) and do not have the time to re-install again since the first re-install didn't work.  I had told him multiple times that I can get around using Adobe products but am huge fan of them(when they work) and would like to find a way to solve the problem.  He then told me that I should go ahead and cancel my subscription and and use that work around since he can not figure it out.  Is there anybody at Adobe that cares about losing my business?  Or anybody out there that may help with the solution of my problem?
Thanks,
Cody

WOW!!!! Adobe only cares about there reputation and not their customers!
Response:  I said multiple times in the last thread that I already did a clean install of my operating system.
Response:  I use DaVinci 10 times more than Premiere Pro and never have had one issue with it ever!  Must not be the issue?!?
Response: Changing the read and write permissions was the first thing the guy tried two weeks ago.  I have done a clean install of Mavericks and it did not solve my problem(as I said in my first post).
(Please do not create new posts in response to an earlier post. That post was deleted).
Hi Cody,
Really sorry you're so upset. I'm only trying to help, though. I suggested that the number one fix is to make sure that your permissions are set to read/write. You did not mention that agents tried this at all in your original response so that's why I mentioned it. Also, I was not completely clear that a clean installation was done as most people install the original OS and then update it, which can cause the issue. Sorry for the confusion.
You did say that you use Resolve all the time with no issues. Resolve can mistakenly install CUDA on your machine which has AMD GPUs. This can cause serious issues. I would remove CUDA from your machine and see if you get better results: Avoid installing NVIDIA CUDA drivers on computers with AMD GPUs
If you want further help, please let me know and I'll do what I can do to assist.
Thanks,
Kevin

  • Premiere Pro Freezing on "Scanning Audio Plug-ins"

    Hi All,
    Adobe Premiere Pro freezes as I wait for "Scanning Audio Plug-Ins." The program "dvaaudiovideoscan" program has opened, but nothing is happening.
    -I have uninstalled and reinstalled.
    -Deleted my "8.0" user folder in documents.
    My iMac has run and has enough power to run Premiere Pro past and present.
    I don't know what to do. I also appreciate that Adobe has no number that I can call even though I'm paying for this service.

  • Premiere Pro CC and CS6 freeze on export

    I have a problem with Premiere freezing when exporting a video sequence.
    The sequence consists of about 5 min of video from 10 different clips, so it not very big.
    I want to export to H.264 format, but a few percent into the export everything freezes and I have to turn off my PC. The same thing happens with export to MPEG2 and MPEG4 formats, but not if I export to AVI format.
    At first I suspected on of the clips was causing the problem, but I'm able to take all the clips one at a time, and export each one to H.264 format without any problems. Even If I take the new exported H.264 clips and put them together, and export them again as one file, it will freeze again.
    The problem is the same in Premiere Pro CC and in Premiere Pro CS6.
    Any ideas on what might be causing this?

  • Any issues with Premiere Pro CC and Avid Media Composer on same system?

    Hi all:
    Searched around for this but couldn't find similar question.
    Am a long time Premiere Pro user, but have something coming up where I'm having to use Avid MC to collaborate with a staff editor for the duration of the job.  Am wondering if I should expect any conflicts or issues to installing both Premiere Pro CC and Media Composer on the same system?  Any insight would be most welcome.
    Running Adobe CC on a Windows 7 HP Z820, Dual Xeon Processors, 128Gb RAM.
    Thanks!

    hi Jim,
    well it turns out that Premiere update 7.2.2. put my computer into disarray, and caused my multi-camera monitor to lag (about 6 seconds) behind my program monitor .. so my my multi-cam monitor (with my 2 or 3 camera feeds) would  be playing footage that is 6 seconds or so BEHIND what was playing on the program monitor.
    that's the gist of it..
    anyway the fine folks at Adobe, talked me through the process of going back to premiere 7.2.0 and that fixed the issue.
    i hope future updates resolve this issue so that i can get back up to the minute on my software
    thanks

  • Premiere pro freeze

    I just left CS6 to join the CC.  I've been having numerous instances of Premiere Pro freezing, with the only way to get it to run again is to force quit and restart -- many times.
    Anyone having the same problems and what can I do to resolve the freezing?  Thank you in advance for any help.

    Hi,
    Which Graphics Card is installed in your computer?
    I would suggest this:
    Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
    If this doesn't help, try this:
    Go to the following locations:
    Location 1: When in Finder, click on Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Location 2: Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe
    Location 3: Documents > Adobe
    In all the locations, rename the 'Adobe' folders to 'OldAdobe'
    Launch Premiere, accept the License Agreement and see if it works.
    Note: You will lose your customized workspaces and keyboard shortcuts.
    Thanks,
    Rameez

  • My macbook pro freezes and then displays a blue screen with black stripes... do you know what's wrong with it?

    My macbook pro freezes and then displays a blue screen with black stripes... do you know what's wrong with it?
    I have a two and half year mac book pro... I've had some issues with the screen looking scrambled when I quit certain applications, but now it's turned into something worse.  I'll be working on my computer and the thing will freeze.  When I force restart, the first screen, the apple logo, will be a blue tint and won't boot up normally.  Then I try safe mood and it will then boot just fine.  But there are blue stripes on my screen.  The screen alternates from a blue tint to normal and if the computer freezes again the screen will become completely blue with black stripes.  I haven't tried reinstalling my software because I don't have the startup discs that came with my computer.  If I was sure that would fix it I would purchase them, but if it's a hardware issue I'm afraid that I'm screwed.  I've been able to successfully get the blue off my screen by putting it to sleep and then waking it up, but that's not working well anymore either. 
    Does anyone else have experience with this?  Is it the firmware or what?  I have a MacBook Pro from early 2011 and I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    Please help... Thanks!

    I just experienced this exact same issue with my early 2011 15" macbook pro. Since like a month after purchasing it I had issues with the screen randomly going dark on me. I sent it in for repair inder waranty they replaced the gpu and logic board but I continued to have the same issues with the screen randomly going black sometimes I would need to reboot it in order to get the screen to go back on but it happened so infrequently and I used the computer for school so disnt find the time to resend it in to apple. Just last night the screen started to display the blue screen with black verticle lines on it. I called apple and explained to them  the issues that had been ongoing since I purchased the laptop but they said because I was now outside of warantee that any repairs at thia point wouldn't be covered. Fml so glad I spent 2200 on this future proof macbook pro what a joke my sister purchased a toshiba laptop for 300 4 years ago and it still running like a champ. I loved my macbook but at the price I paid I expect it to last longer than 2 years before leaving me high and dry. *** apple??

  • Premiere Pro CS6 and Media Encoder CS6 Color shift on export

    Hello,
    I am working on an early 2008 Mac Pro with 2 X 3.2 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon Processors 32 GB of RAM a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB Graphics Card and I am running OS X 10.8.2.
    I have the updated Version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and Media Encoder CS6 through the awesome Subscription program that Adobe has started.
    My footage is shot with the Canon 1D Mark IV shot 1920X1080 at 24 FPS
    I am importing the camera files and then exporting them after I cut them up in to Quicktime Pro Res 422 HQ files
    With the technical explination out of the way here is my problem. I have color right from the camera files that I like. and with out doing any thing to change the color I export the footage and get a dramatic color shift. The exported file looks desaturated and slightly green.
    I have tried using Media Encoder CS6 to export my footage and that has the same result.
    I started my career as a photographic retoucher and use photoshop and light room constantly so I am pretty confident that i know color. I also calibrate my Lacie 526 and Lacie 324i montiors monthly as well as have a sensor that will slightly shift the profile depending on the time of day.
    I have attached three screen shots that show the color shift exactly. Now what I need is a solution. What I am not seeing is color settings for Premiere. I am totally open to any suggestions on what I might be doing incorrectly.

    I've been doing this for a few years now, and have come to some conclusions. Basically, the difference between still photography and video is like the difference between playing the trumpet and the sax. What you bring to the sax from playing trumpet is your ability to read music, what you know about composition, blending while playint with others, ect. But playing trumpet tells you nothing about how to physically play a sax. So it is with still photography and video.
    For starters, your carefully calibrated computer monitor is just that, a computer monitor. It doesn't display the correct working space for video. What you need for WYSIWYG in video is a monitor that can show you the Rec.709 working space. Rec.709 has a different gamut, a different gamma, probably a different white point (D65), different phosphor colors, etc., etc., etc. Enought differences that it's difficult to make a computer monitor that can successfully display Rec.709. Yet there are a couple of computer monitors that can do this (a few Eizos, one HP). The vast majority of people doing serious color correction work in video use a production monitor for just this reason.
    But a production monitor isn't enough. You also have to make sure that the signals you're sending the production monitor are correct. There's a sub-industry making signal converters for signals from NLE video cards (usually RGB based) -> signals for production monitors (usually YUV based).
    That said, it is certainly possible to get a very good match between your NLE suite and a DVD / BD as displayed on an HDTV. But it's not as simple or easy as a calibrtated computer monitor for still photography use.
    This is probably part of your problem. But Quicktime is probably the root of it. Quicktime is, well, I guess the polite way of saying it is that Quicktime is problematic. It gives all kinds of problems. Most people have abandoned it. You should too.

  • Premiere Pro CC and the new Mac Pro - are all upgrades necessary?

    Monday I'm ordering the new Mac Pro because my Mid 2012 Mac Pro tower is simply too slow and crashy no matter how much money I sink into it. Thing is, every little upgrade I add onto this new Mac Pro is very expensive, so I want to make sure I don't add anything that won't make a difference in edit performance.
    My ultimate goal is to be able to work with 4k, and even 5k footage in 2014. More and more clients are giving me Red media, and my system right now can't handle it (I have to render proxy files for everything).
    Attached are my hardware upgrade options for my processor and graphics card. These options can only be offered when I order the computer. Neither the processor or the GFX card can be changed by me later. Note that these options alone almost double the computers's price (3600). As of now I assume that getting the fastest everything is the way to go, but is there any reason I should not go this high?

  • Premiere Pro CC and Encore CC are ignoring the Target and Maximum Bitrates

    Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe Encore CC are ignoring the Target and Maximum Bitrates settings in the export window, The files that are exported are much smaller than what the estimated size of the file should be shown in the export window and are highly compressed. What can cause such an issue?
    I haven't drastically changed my presets.

    There is a very definite bug in the Adobe Media Encoder engine which is used in both Premiere Pro and After Effects.  H.264 exports seem to randomly choose their own export quality, using 2-pass VBR.  I have found with some DV-size exports on 'match quality' in Premiere Pro, that setting the export above 10Mbps pushes the quality down to well under 1Mbps, e.g. 167kbps.  I've found that using the default min 6, max 8 seems to work the best.  I've worked with this on two different machines and fiddled with it extensively and this is definitely NOT an intended 'feature'.  In fact, I have found that exporting from the same sequence, if I select the first 20 seconds, I get very low bitrate, but if I select 30 seconds or more, I get the higher bitrate that I want!  And I tend to get different results when I enable and disable 'use previews'.
    I am also having some trouble with missing frames when exporting progressive animation files to h.264 mp4 files that never occured before.  Not sure yet if this is related to the same issue, but interestingly, I don't get the 'blinking' missing frames issue when the bitrate drops itself down to a very low 150-200kbps.  When I do get the export rate up higher, then the missing frames on just this animation clip return.
    So, after my tests, here is a screen capture of sample export settings (yes, 15Mbps is a very high bitrate for DV, but the same happens at 6Mbps or 7 or whatever I try in some cases):
    This gave me a 1.5MB file with a reported 167kbps bitrate and a quality level as shown below:
    A currently working 'workaround' is to use 1-pass VBR which gives me a crisp, clean 5.5MB file.  Would a few others please try to reproduce this so we can get it escalated to bug status?  I'll report it if you can confirm it there, this is happening on two computers here.
    Thanks,
    Sean
