Premiere Pro v6.0.3 won't accept drag & dropped files from Sony's XDCAM Browser v2.1

Premiere Pro reports a "generic file import" error when I try to drag & drop my video files (.mxf) from Sony's XDCAM browser directly into Premiere Pro project window. However, I can drag & drop the same file(s) directly from a file folder on my computer and I can also use the "file import" from Premiere Pro drop down menu to import the same files with no problems.
Also, I can successfully drag & drop video files (.m2ts) from Sony's Content Management Utility into Premiere.
But why can't I drag and drop the same files (.mxf) directly from my Sony XDCAM Browser. It appears to me that my issue is related specifically to XDCAM Browser & the .mxf files it supports (note: Sony's Content Management Utility does support .mxf files so I can't simply use that Utility).

I try to drag & drop my video files (.mxf) from Sony's XDCAM browser directly into Premiere Pro project window.
You need to use the Media Browser within Premiere
to import these files.
Copy the entire contents of the media card to an internal drive first.

To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.
Ciao.

Only Premiere Pro CC and CS6 won't launch on startup after installing CC 2014

Ever since I downloaded CC, I cannot open Premiere Pro on CC or CS6 -- which CS6 worked fine before. However, all other installed apps on CC work fine, including After Effects. My specs are all up to date, (2012 Macbook Pro, 8GB RAM, 64-bit, etc) and figure there's some kind of bug within Premiere. My Adobe preference folder is set to Read&Write and don't know what to do. I have read that people downloaded and ran CC Cleaner but to no avail to fix the underlying issues. Need help ASAP. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Launch Premiere while holding the Option key on the keyboard. If that 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,

Premiere won't accept new source files in slightly different formats...

I'm using CS3 (and I installed CS4 and got the same problem). I've created a video using six different source videos that were originally encoded in XVID. I now know that was a bad idea but at the time I didn't know how to convert the video so I went ahead and used them. Now my project crashes to the desktop whenever I open it without any sort of error message.
This is a project that I started over a year ago and I set it aside because I didn't want to deal with the issue, but I really want to finish this project. Now I have a better handle on what sort of codecs work well with premiere and I use Super C to convert the videos to a friendly format and I haven't had any problems with my projects crashing since then.
So now I've revisted the project that is crashing and I have tried converting the original source videos to a more friendly format, but hte problem is, even when I get it to a format that is pretty much exactly the same settings as the original (size, fps, etc) premiere won't accept it. When I open the project and it asks me "Where is the file..." I'll point to the new file and premiere tells me "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match original file's type (audio and video)".. I try this after opening the project by right clicking on the asset and choosing "link media..." but of course I get the same error message.
What i've gotten done in the project is like 10 hours worth of work and it would be a shame to lose all of it just because Premiere is too picky about switching from one media type to another .. what are my options in getting this to work?

Welcome to the forum.
Yes, Xvid is a delivery-only format for delivery-only, but you know that too.
What I would do would be to Open that original Project, and then Offline the original Video. If you named the converted files the same, except for the extension, you should be able to then Import the replacement files and manually replace those. Make sure that when you choose to Offline the Assets, that you do a Save_As, so that the original Project is NOT overwritten - keep it safe.
You might try to Relink from the Project Panel, before you do the Import. I do not know if that will be allowed, due to the extension difference, but that would be the easiest way, if it works. Try that first. With the material Offline, Rt-click on each AV file, and choose Link Media. If you used the same file names, you should be able to find the converted versions. Let us know if this works, or if you get rejected.
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Pro CS6 - Project frame won't retain its layout or location between opening and closing?

I filed this as a bug, but perhaps I'm thinking through this wrong and would like to seek help.
I'm finding that the Project frame in Premiere Pro CS6 does not retain its layout between opening and closings.
Here's what I do:
1) Open a project.
2) Create several bins and populate them with media. Expand the contents of a bin by clicking the disclosure triangle to the left of the folder.
3) Undock the Project frame only.
4) Close the Project frame with Command-W
5) Use ****-1 to reopen the Project frame.
Repeat steps 4 and 5. The result is that the Project frame does not remember which bin was open. Furstratingly, it also does not retain which bins were expanded or collapsed.
And worst of all, it will also open in random areas of the screen. (The expected result is that it would reopen in the same spot of the desktop where you last closed it, no?)
I'm a big organizer -- tons of footage across many different bins. I open bins, close them, keep some open, close others... easily dozens or hundreds of times during an edit session. I'm beginnging to feel like I'm swatting flies or playing whack-a-mole just to get my bin views correct!
Or mm I approaching this wrong?

But really, the real solution for me was to not update Premiere Pro CS6 after a reinstall. The most recent updates just do not like my computer, I guess.
Figured I should post this solution here in case anyone in the future has this problem. (relevant: xkcd: Wisdom of the Ancients)

Premiere Pro CC asleep? Won't respond to anything when I go back to it.

So, I've been having this issue for a week or two now, and I can't seem to figure out why it is happening. I usually have Premiere Pro CC (most recent version installed running in OSX Yosemite) open in the background of my computer when I'm not editing anything, but when I go back to it after varying periods of time, and try to do anything, nothing happens. I hit the space bar to play, scrub the playhead in the timeline, source, and program windows, double-click to open clips from my bin, switch tools, etc., and nothing happens. The playhead in the windows will move, but no audio or video plays - whatever is in the source and program windows at that time will stay there, like it's frozen. But there is no spinning pinwheel of death/spinning beach ball or anything. If I right-click on the PP icon in the dock, it doesn't say that the program isn't responding. There's no indication that anything is wrong.
Occasionally, Premiere will wake up after a minute (sometimes more, sometimes less) and work fine. Sometimes I have to save the project (by pressing Command-S or by using the File menu) to get it to work, but that doesn't always fix it. I Command-Tab to other programs and then go back to PP - sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. Closing and opening the program always works, but that's an annoying fix just to get the program to wake up.
Has anyone else had these issues? I can't be the only one.

Premiere Pro 2.0 - AME Won't open!

Hello. Trying to export simple small AVI file to Quicktime. Premiere Pro 2.0, Windows XP, etc.
1st two attempts: Export/Adobe Media Encoder, chose Quicktime format. Encountered some kind of problem, error: Invalid profile file! I think this is an audio issue, but not sure yet.
Subsequent attempts: Export/AME will not open - nothing happens when I use this menu sequence. Tried exiting Premiere, retried, same result.
Ideas?
TIA

OK, thanks for trying.
There were no updates (to my knowledge) for PrPro 2.0, so that should not be an issue.
Next, and even an uninstall/reinstall will not address this - trash your Prefs file. Now, the process differs by Adobe products, but I think that PrPro will reset these, if you hold down Shift, and continue to hold it down when you launch PrPro. If that is not it, then I'd try holding down Ctrl. I wish that Adobe was common with this, across all products. PS is Shift+Ctrl+Alt, while launching.
One can also find the Prefs file in Documents & Settings/[User Name]/Application Settings/Adobe/Premiere Pro 2.0/2.0, IIRC (will go check on my XP machine and report back). The Prefs file can be Renamed to say Adobe Premiere Pro.Prefs_old. PrPro will regenerate this file upon launch. You WILL need to go into Edit>Preferences and reset things, as they will be set to the default.
Back in a moment,
Hunt
[Edit] Here is my Path: C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Adobe\Premiere Pro\2.0. The file is: Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs. Change that to Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs_Old, or Move it elsewhere, say to an "Old Prefs" folder.

Premiere Pro CS 6 Family Won't Install

Hello,
I just got the trial version of creative cloud and everything about it is super awesome except for the fact that Premiere Pro CS6 will not install at all. Everything else has installed percectly with the Adobe App Manager, but for some reason Premiere always says "Installation Failed" even after many restarts, retries, whatever.
I had CS5 Production premium before this, and have uninstalled the old CS5 Premiere, but still am not having any luck. Has anyone else had this problem, or knows how to solve it?
Thanks for helping!

Hi David
Premiere installation failed, too.
After cancelling, AAM shows Premiere installed, but there is no (visible) Premiere.app or Folder on /applications.
Starting my Creative Cloud installation, member/no trail, with PS, AE , Premiere... PS 6, AE works fine
System requirements should be ok: MacBook Pro (early 2008) OSX 10.6.8 / Intel Dual Core 2,5 GHz / 4GB RAM/
No Problems with CS 5.5
What about your Link? http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html
Any friendly solutions meanwhile. Where to find?

Premiere Pro & Media Encoder CS6 exports 0 or 1 kB file

Hello
I'm start using Premiere Pro CS6 on the Company where I work.
When I export the movie to Media encoder, I get 0 or 1kB file.
Original File: MUX: MP4
Type: MPEG Movie
File Size: 2,8 MB
Image Size: 640 x 360
Frame Rate: 25,00 fps Progressive
Source Audio Format: 44100 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 44100 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00:01:07:01
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,0
Tried to export (by CTRL+M) in:
MUX: MP4
Protocol: H264
Image Size: 640 x 360
Frame Rate: 25,00 fps Progressive
TV Standard: PAL
Profile: High
Level: 3
Then: Queue
Once Media Encoder is opened:
I tried already these settings:
"Custom" (accepting the settings passed from Premiere to Media Encoder)
"PAL DV Widescreen" that respects what I need
It renders the video (so it looks like)
Then it gives "Done" with a fully green tick.
But when I click on the file name/path to open it, I find it at 0kB ... any suggestion please?

It's a different driver than C it's H and I have about 500 GB free. Consider that the video is really short and the source file is very small and not inHDTV at all as you can see from the data I reported in my entry post.

Premiere Pro audio sync issues with 48khz audio on video file and 44.1khz audio on external audio

So, I recorded video and audio on my Canon 5D Mark II at 1080p, 23.976 fps, and 48khz, 16-bit Stereo audio. And I used a Zoom H4 to record an mp3 audio file at 44.1khz Compressed. When trying to sync the audio in Premiere Pro CC, the audio slowly loses sync over time. I already tried to convert the 44.1khz mp3 file to 48khz in Adobe Audition. But that didn't fix the problem. Any ideas?

There's always time-stretch changes to the audio file with "keep pitch unchanged" checked, I suppose. Mind you, I've heard of people doing it but haven't done it myself. There's other possible options I'm sure. There's been quite a few threads here on time-sync issues over time.
