Suddenly, Premiere Pro video project will not play at all

I've been working on several versions of a video project in premiere, and suddenly none on the files will play at all. I'm fairly new to premiere, but all I've ever had to do in the past is make sure the timeline is selected and hit play. Now nothing happens in any of my sequences. I would very much appreciate suggestions.

  • Premiere Pro CC 2014 will not play

    I usually like to wait a few months before updating, but I had an issue with a client and needed to get the new version of Premiere Pro CC.
    Premiere Pro CC 2014 will not play in Source or Program. Clicking play button or spacebar causes play icon to change from start to stop, but nothing happens. I'm on a late 2012 iMac. i7 Processor. OSX 10.8.5

    I'm Windows, but some saved Mac links to read that MAY help

  • Premiere Pro CC Projects Will Not Be Backward Compatable

    This may have been mentioned before, but I have looked through the first two pages without finding a reference.  I'm trawling through the CC FAQ, and find lots of answers to questions I was not sure about, but one of the questions is 'Which CC applications support export to CS6?'.  The short list of apps that follow does not include Premiere Pro.  It seems to me that that also means that if you try the CC for the discounted first year, and decide it isn't right for you, any projects you develop in Premiere Pro CC during that year, can not be taken back to Premiere Pro CS6 for further work.  I guess you can import the entire project exported from PP CC, and edit that, but that is not going to be convenient with a multi track, complex project.   Am I not thinking this through correctly?  (Sorry, the forum won't let me paste the link)

    I found the following work-around: not perfect, but quite good.
    Premiere 6.5 projects can be directly opened in CS6 or earlier just by changing the extension from .ppj to .prproj
    Make a copy of the original .prproj file and name it Name_audio-only.prproj
    Export sequence(s) as FCP XML from CC - multiple sequences can be selected OR select Project Panel to export entire project (Attention: Most video - even intrinsic ones like motion, opacity etc. and audio effects are not correctly translated! Check beforehand that all 3rd party plugins are installed in all versions of PPro!)
    Save a copy of the project as Name_video-only.prproj and delete all audio tracks or audio clips from all sequences that contain video effects
    Close PPro CC project
    If the PPro CC project file is compressed, add .gz as extension and extract with 7zip
    To disable compression in CC:Ctrl + F12 to open Console, switch to Debug Database View: BE.CompressProject> false
    Open in Notepad++
    Edit version number change (4th line) from 26 to 23 or 24 and open the project in PPro CS5.0.3 or PPro 5.5.2 and save it.
    If there should be a color picker dialogue box while opening click Cancel (as this is most probably for Adjustment Layer which are not supported in CS5.5)
    If PPro CS5.5 shows a Log of non-translated effects etc., copy and paste them into a text file with the project name for later reference. 
    PPro Version numbers:
    23>CS5
    24>CS5.5
    25>CS6
    26>CC
    27>CC 2014
    A simple change to 23 and opening it directly in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 does not work! (Liegt wahrscheinlich an den Audiotracks, da Projekte mit Sequenzen, die nur Video enthalten, teilw. geöffnet werden können.)
    It is possible to open a PPro CS6 project directly in CS5.5 by editing the version number from 25 to 24.
    Open this project Name_video-only.prproj in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and convert it to CS6 project - now you have all the sequences with the supported video effects
    Import FCP XML project file(s) into PPro CS6 and copy the audio tracks from the corresponding sequences (or vice versa: copy video tracks so they align synchronously again)
    Gotcha’s:Through Edits, Adjustment Layers, Time Remapping, 3rd party filters, plugins, transitions may not be correctly translated!
    PRPROJ File Associations
    After installing an update to PPro, Windows will change the default program to the latest program version, e.g. CC. If you want to revert those to CS6, you cannot simply do it with Rightclick>Open with>C hange default program..
    There is a way to change the setting in the Windows Registry:
    Open regedit.exe as Administrtor
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Adobe.Premiere.Pro.Project. >  shell/open/command and change the path in “” to the correct program version.
    You can also do a search in the section of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Adobe.Premiere.(with various endings following the word "Premiere") and change all remaining instances.

    I opened my iPhoto library today which was stored on an external hard drive and several of my videos now will not play at all. The weird thing is that each file shows a duration of 1 second and when I open them it just shows one frame. What the !&%$#@ Where did my original video files go?

    Sounds like a good plan, you can never be to safe and having a second External HD is safer than one.
    The only thing that I would do different, is setup the 3T as my TimeMachine Backup and then erase and move my Photos, Videos and perhaps even iTunes Media to the 1T. That way you will have room to backup both the Internal Hard Drive and the 1T External Hard Drive to the 3T using TimeMachine.

  • My 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    My 2006 - 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV 1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. However, when I open the project on my other Mac Pro running Snow Leopard and FCP 6, the footage works fine as it does on my newer Imac running Mavericks and FCP 7. I have tried a Quicktime update on the Mac Pro that the footage doesn't work on but it says that I already have the newest version of Quicktime installed. I have also tried reinstalling the Final Cut Pro Studio twice, still no fix. I'm completely out of solutions and need to be able to edit HDV footage on this machine. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up.  Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
    Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests.  But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum.  there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc.

  • I created a iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DVD RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

    I created an iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DV+RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

    Probably because they don't accept that media.
    Try using Verbatim DVD+DL (if your project exceeds 2 hours) or Verbatim DVD-R if it doesn't.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 (mac) will not completely launch.

    After a few weeks idol my Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 (mac) will not completely launch. It tells me a serious error has occurred, it shuts down and the circle continues. I've even reloaded  the app and it happens again. I did upgraded to Yosemite but I can't find anyone else having probs with Yosemite. Any ideas. No luck on the adobe site.

    >did upgraded to Yosemite
    CS6 is about 3 years old... even the latest Cloud versions had to have updates to be compatible... since you have "reloaded" (was that a full uninstall and reinstall?) I have no other suggestions

  • Premiere Pro 1.5 will not load

    Hi,
    After quite a period 'away' from editing thought it about time to get back into it.  However, my Premiere Pro 1.5 will not start on my computer.  It (normally) gets to the loading Wave_Warp AEX, stops, thinks about it for a while and then the computer re-boots itself!  It works fine on my laptop and I even tried it on my wifes desktop with no problems.  I have tried everything that I can think of to stop this happening, including a full system restore with hard drive format thinking a clean HDD would be okay, but no, the same result.  I suspect there is a compatability issue with this computer, which is a Hewlett Packard Media machine running Win XP Media version.  Any help/advice much appreciated - I've already spent a lot of time trying to get this to work and thats before I've started editing!
    PS  I'm very much a 'home user' and so do not want to go to the expense again of upgrading, only to find that would have the same problem - I did have an old 'trial' version of Pro 2.0, but that had the same result, the computer re-boots during loading.
    Many thanks
    mkn

    Thanks again for the replies.  Harm, I would like to do what you suggest but not entirely sure on how to do it.  The only discs I have are the ones I made when I first got the computer (its a Hewlett-Packard) and they are the standard 'restore' discs.  If I 'format' the c drive, ie erase everything and then do a restore with the rescue discs would that give the correct response or do I need to get a proper, full install (of say Windows 7)?
    Jim, ironically I was getting a hunch that it may be a memory module.  It has 2 GB consisting of 4 times 512 banks.  When I first got the computer one of the banks failed and was replaced under warranty but in that instance the entire computer would not start.  Having said that, i'm sure this a communication problem between the software and the computer.  It fails after the last 'loading' instruction (something like Wave_AEX), or, occasionally it gets past that onto the normal workspace but will then fail anytime within the next 15 secs or so.
    Next job will be to systematically remove a memry bank at a time to see if I can isolate it that way.  If that doeas not work then i'll do as Harm suggests.
    Thanks again.

  • Premiere Pro 2.0 will not import --

    Premiere Pro 2.0 will not import mov, wmv, avi, mp4 or avchd files.  What format does it want?  OR does this have something to do with my Win 7 machine not having the right codecs?  If so, which ones are the right ones and how do I install them?

    >not compatible with W7
    Right click the program icon and select XP compatibility from the pop-up option list
    Also right click the program icon and select "Run as Administrator" to see if that helps

    I just downloaded an album from itunes and 2 of the tracks will not play at all, they cut off. I need help with this??

    Does the track play correctly in Quicktime Player?  If it does then it is an iTunes issue.  If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt.

  • How do I stop my songs from skipping? They will not play at all.

    How do I stop my IPhone 4s songs from skipping? They will not play at all but they are all there ready to play.

    My iphone 4 is skipping songs and voice control is coming on randomly. I think it is a headphone problem. I used a non-apple set of headphone that do not have a mic and it worked as expected. When I used Apple headphone it skips and voice control turns on. It's annoying.

  • DVD studio Pro discs still will not play

    Hi Folks,
    no matter what settings I change in DVD studio pro they will not play on computers or any DVD player I try. 
    If I print a copy off with a consumer platform like toast they play it fine....
    what are the settings I need toadjust to ensure they are compatible on ALL dvd players, computers....blue ray players??
    Sorry for the repost, I thought my question was solved yesterday.

    Hi
    My thoughts about this (for what it might be worth)
    • Brand of DVD matters - Memorex, NoName etc cheap brands use to work as Data-DVDs BUT NOT FOR VIDEO !
    I only use Verbatim (but would love to try Tayio Yuden)
    • Type of DVD used.
    DVD-R plays on even older DVD-Players - DVD+R not so and especially avoid DVD+/-RW as they use to NOT WORK
    • BURN SPEED - Faster ====> More Burn Errors !
    I set it down to x2 or x4 at MAX - this use to be the problem when DVD doesn't play on PC ore even the Mac who burned it.
    •  HD-DVD - Needs dedicated Toshiba HD DVD-players to be able to be played
    • Blu-Ray - Roxio Toast™ incl BD-component can do thus BUT the resulting BD-Disk or BD on DVD disk is in AVCHD
    SO BD-Player must be able to play it
    - Cheap Samsungs DO NOT
    - PlayStation3 CAN PLAY them !

  • With purchased music videos they will not play, an error comes up"The requested URP was not fopund on thsi server", and video doesn't play?

    I ahve purchased 5 music vidoes from iTunes and they will not play on my iPhone4. The error message that appears is:
    "The requested URL was not fopund on this server"
    I am not sure how to fix this so I can watch my videos?

    It all depends on exactly how you move the library from one machine to the other. The database holding information about your library is normally in a folder called iTunes, with the media in a subfolder called iTunes Media. In this layout you can usually copy the entire iTunes folder from one machine to the other and it will work. If the media folder is split to a new location however then often the links to tracks will fail on a new computer.
    You shoud find that the FindTracks script is able to repair the links in your library.
    I'm not sure I know what is going on with the purchased music, however if you enable Edit > Preferences > Store > Automatic Downloads > Music you should be able to recover your past store purchases.

  • Video Attachments will not play within the mail program.

    When trying to view a video attachment from within the mail program it will not play the video. It loads the sound but not the video. This started after a recent apple software update. It is happening on several computers also so it is not an isolated problem. Seems to be a "quicktime" issue. I can download them and play them through quicktime but not while in "mail" like I used to be able to do.
    I use "Flip-4-Mac" to view some windoze videos (wmv).

    It's a conflict between QuickTime 7.5.5 and Flip4Mac. Not much you can do but wait for the Flip4Mac people to issue an update. See here: http://www.flip4mac.com/knowledge/kb_0079.htm
