Success!  Solution to .DV files unable to be opened in Premiere Pro

I'm super excited to have finally figured out why my .DV files kept getting "file type not supported" messages when I tried to import them into Premiere Pro.  I had used them previously before I wiped the hard drive on my laptop.  After Effects also did not recognize them.  Having spent some time on the phone with Adobe support, I finally stumbled upon the solution on my own.  I installed Quicktime, exited out of both Premiere Pro and After Effects, opened both programs, and the .DV files worked perfectly.
Like I said, it is great to have this problem behind me... I've been trying to fix it for quite some time.  Now I can finally get back to work on my video project!

This is not from an emperical survey, but only observing the posts in the forum:
It does seem that installation issues are greater in CS4. Now, there was a problem with the MSI (Micro$oft Installer), and that did not help. Still, enough install issues to make note of.
Then, the CS4.1 update seems to have installation issues for some. Don't know if this is specific to their systems, or there is something else afoot. The problems do not seem to be universal, but appear randomly - by the reporting.
To sum:
More installation issues? Seems so.
Am I sure? No, as there could be a larger user base, or maybe just more folk coming here with their issues...

    Does it not play at all or cannot you get the audio in the timeline?
    Did you copy the entire card to the hdd and then imported the file via the Media Browser?
    Did you source patch the audio tracks?

    I own an iMac 2011. I am unable to reinstall and launch premiere pro cc. We I attempt to run the program I get a error message saying that the adobe application manager is missing or need to be updated. I reinstalled the manager but I am still unable to launch any of my programs from adobe. I tried to do a trail with a program and I am still getting the same message.

    Davinci thank you for the update.
    Please utilize any available uninstallers that are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once all of the available uninstallers have been run you will then want to rerun the CC Cleaner Tool.  You can find directions on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool and a download link at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.  After the CC Cleaner Tool is run then please reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application from Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud for desktop.
    The CC Cleaner Tool is designed to be used after running the uninstallers.  Without running the uninstallers first then a complete removal may not be possible.

  • How do I get my file into the time line in Premiere Pro CC?

    How do I get my file into the time line in Premiere Pro CC? I am use to Premier Pro CS6 and unfortunately my labtop took a crash and I lost all of my adobe products. I wanted to check out a trial version and I cannot seem to find one for CS6! Please Help Me! My project is due tonight!!!!!

    Hi Aneumann,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    You have to just right click on the clip imported, in the project panel and select new sequence from clip. You can also go to file menu>new>sequence and create a sequence and then drag the clips after importing them , into the timeline.

  • Premiere Elements Project file wount open in Premiere Pro CS6

    My friend Just bought Premiere elements 13 and created a Project. I cant open the Project in Premiere Pro CS6. Getting this error message:
    "The Project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened."
    The Project workes fine in Premiere Elements 13
    What can I do? What is wrong?

    If you have done this:
    Import a Premiere Elements project (Windows only)
       Select File > Open Project.   
       Browse to an Adobe Premiere Elements project file, with file extension PREL.   
       Click Open.   
    Premiere Pro converts the Premiere Elements project file to a Premiere Pro project file.
    and it wont work Elements 13 is probably too new for CS6.

  • Opening a Premiere Pro file on a different computer

    My Premiere Pro CC 2014 8.1.0 project file was created and worked upon on my personal macbook laptop. I have been working entirely off of an external hard drive that was plugged into my macbook. I plugged my hard drive into a different mac computer that has the same up to date Premiere Pro CC 2014 8.1.0 version of the software, but I repeatedly receive the message that my file was created in a "newer version" of Premiere and cannot be opened. If anyone has any idea how I can open the file, please help me. Thank you.

  • Unable to open my  Premiere Pro  CS6 projects

    Hi,
    I am using Adobe Premiere PRO CS6 about two years. A few days ago i tried to open a project i createt half a year ago but was not able to. I got alway the error message Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
    when i click to continue appears the message that the project could not be loaded beacuse its maybe dameged or  contains old elements.
    So what I tried,
    -     Reinstall Adobe premiere Pro CS6 (deleted all files and settings before)
    -      create an other User on the computer to be sure its not the user profile
    -     installed Premiere on a virutal machine
    -      open an other project from autosave
         always the same error
    than I  created a new project worked for about one hour on it. after saving closed the project => next day continued with the work on that file saved again, an since today that file is also not working any more same error as on the other fiel. The old file (saved after first day) is still working.
    I hope you can help me with that issue, in about a month I will have to make a bigger project and if Im not sure that premiere is working correct i might loose a lot of time.
    thanks for your help!!

  • Files unable to be opened via double click.

    Hello,
    I have a G5 mac desktop running 10.3.9 and it is in a state where when you double click a file (say a word doc), the application launches but the file doesn't open.
    I have tried force resetting the LaunchServices database with lsregister -kill -f -domain local -domain system -domain user command but with no change to the problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks,
    Derek

    I have tried repairing permissions and restarting. The extra info that I have discovered is that files that reside on the local disk behave normally. It is the files that are in the user's home directory which is nfsv3 mounted from a sun server are the one's behaving oddly.

  • My imported AVI file doesn't play audio in Premiere Pro CS5 nor Encore CS5

    Hi there,
    I've been trying to find a solution for my "audio" problem for a few days now, but no luck...
    First of all I'd like to mention that I work on a Mac.
    I have an AVI file that plays perfectly fine in Quicktime (audio and video).
    However, when I import it in Encore or Premiere, it shows the video but there's no audio.
    I understand this probably has something to do with codecs? But I really have no clue what I can do about it.
    I was working in Encore at first, cause I don't really need any editing, just a dvd I'd like to burn. Since the audio didn't work there I've tried importing in Premiere. Same problem of course. Then I tried to seperate the audio and video and transfered it into Soundbooth. Didn't change anything.
    Another problem that occurred in Encore was some errors with gaps. I have about 10 AVI files that I put on the same timeline. Any advice on what I can do about that?
    I'm kinda new in all of these things, so any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi again,
    I've downloaded mediainspector and got the following results:
    I also checked the timeline after importing a video and there is indeed a red line over the timeline in Premiere, not in Encore:
    Screenshot timeline Encore:
    Screenshot timeline Premiere:
    My project settings in Encore: I took the standard for a dvd Pal widescreen:
    And in Premiere I've tried the 4 different standard settings for DV PAL. All the same result with the red line.
    I've read the articles about the codecs, but I really could use some help what I can do next. Should I convert it to an MPEG2 for dvd file for example? Which converter (free?) is good for Mac?
    Or is there something else I need to do?
    I understand how the programs work but I really don't know so much technical stuff about sound and video.
    Oh, and just for your information: I imported an MP3 file also in the project, to play at the main menu, and that one is playing just fine, no problems there.
    Thanks again for all the help! I really appreciate it.

  • Unable to batch capture with Premiere Pro CC via Kona LHi

    AJA's web site claims Premiere Pro CC is compatible with the Kona LHi card, but I can't get the two to work together properly. After repeated tries, I uninstalled and reinstalled everything AJA, but still no luck.
    I need to batch capture DV clips from some mini-DV tapes on my Sony MVR035U tape deck.  But I also need to upconvert them from 480i to 720p60 using my Kona Lhi card. I should be able to do this with Premiere Pro CC. But the PPCC Capture window won't give me any audio feedback when I select "AJA Movie Capture" in the Capture Settings pull down menu. I only get audio feedback when I enable "DV capture" but then I'm no longer able to upconvert.
    Looking forward to any feedback on this issue. Been tying all day to trouble shoot this problem.

    And now with CC June 2014 you can't even capture from HDV, I need to go back to Premiere CC 2013 for that....Adobe might think tape capture is over... but it isn't totally yet...
