Unable to open saved projects in CS5.5

Hello,
Im using Premiere Pro CS5.5 and as of this moring when I try to open a saved project Premiere crashes with the error "sorry a serious error occurred adobe premiere and must close". I am able to create a new project which works fine (didnt try saving it and reopening it). I also found that when logging into that machine as a different user Im able to open saved projects.
I dumped everything in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Pro\5.5 thinking maybe the preferences may have been corrupted but no luck.
Any thoughts?

We are having the same issue. We are using Garageband '09 version 5.1 on our new iMac 10.6.2. Each time we try to save or open an existing file we get this message "The document “My Song 3.band” could not be opened". This is starting to get really frustrating. Do you think with the new operating system we need iLife?
Happy Holidays!

    Travel and detours have kept me from following up sooner. If the problem that you wrote about still persists.....
    Let us go back over that Adobe document regarding troubleshooting damaged projects.
    3. Delete the Application Preferences
    Where you able to follow that path and delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file at the end of the path? And, after you did, did the saved/closed programs still refuse to open? If you could not carry out this procedure, what were the limiting factors that kept you from do
    7. Test to see if individual media files are causing the problem.
    That is an important one. How far did you get into following the instructions given in the document? If you could not complete the test, what was the major block that prevented you from doing so?
    I want to make sure that we have gone through everything in that document and ruled all factors there in or out. If it was a matter of you not understanding the instructions, I am hoping that the above will channel you questions to me so that I can clarify anything that you did not understand in the Adobe document instructions.
    I do not recall if I asked previously. Even if you cannot open all your saved/closed projects, can you still open a new project and save/close it? Maybe even reopen it?
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot open saved project/make new projekt - whats wrong?!?

    i made last days a nice idvd project with a lot of slideshows. all was working fine, i was able to save it, open it again, work on it etc...but then:
    when i want to open saved project idvd just mark the file, i hear my harddrive working - and nothing happens! i made the update from aplle, but same problem - idvd stays frozen if i want to open the project. so i tryed to make new project - its doing the same!
    free space on harddrive 34,7 GB...i reinstalled and made update from apple but it wont help.
    does anybody nows how to fix the problem?!?

    Hi
    *Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
    • Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Delete iDVD pref file - *or rather start a new user/account* - log into this and re-try
    iDVD pref file resides. Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences and is named.
    com.apple.iDVD.plist
    While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
    Now restart iDVD.
    • Program miss-match. iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
    • Program miss-match. iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • Program miss-match. iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
    • Try a Cleaning CD/DVD that cleans the laser lens on the DVD burner/player
    iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
    Last resort. from Craig. Solved the problem!! Finally!!
    I deleted every iDVD application and folder from my boot drive,
    emptied the trash and then installed iDVD 08 using the customize option
    and I am up and running.
    If You do a re-install be sure to get rid of all iDVD old parts AND then EMPTY the Trash-basket !
    iDVD updated ?
    Apple Codec updated ?
    Start a New Clean project - or delete project assets

  • Opening CS4 projects in CS5 error with Canon 5D footage HELP!!!

    HI Im trying out the new Premiere Pro CS5 demo and Im getting major problems opening projects.
    Initially I couldnt open any of my CS4 projects but could import single sequences one at a time only, not whole projects. So I was finally working fine yesturday and today nothing opens that includes canon 5d footage . I get this error.
    "This project contains a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
    I get the same message when I import a whole project. Yet I can import a whole project 1 sequence at a time!!!
    I can only create new projects which save and open but all older saved projects do not open.
    thanks
    remainz

    Yes, this is an intermittent issue with CS5. Somehow, there’s a problem wherein certain commonly-used codecs suddenly remove/disable themselves. I had this problem, and it was driving me crazy as I couldn’t open anything, and it was just way, way too much work to recreate. So I opened up a new project. Lo and behold, the program suddenly informed me that there were codecs that needed to be installed. Codecs which, I’m sure, have been installed already, but obviously Premiere knows that they’re missing. Allowing the program to install them, and then allowing it to quit itself, and then reopening the program again enabled Premiere to open all of my projects again.

  • Opening CS4 Project in CS5

    Hi Guys
    I'm trying to open a CS4 project in CS5.
    On opening I get a message saying it was created in an earlier version of Pr and must be converted. I click OK and get a screen showing all the project folders and clips with options to 'skip' or 'skip all'. I tried opening the folders but nothing is there and it says 'No items match your search'. I tried typing the project name into the 'File name' box; the same thing. I click on a clip but it that doesn't do anything either, so I click 'skip all' and when the project opens all the clips have been replaced by an image saying ' Media Offline'. I find if I right click on each clip I can relink but this would take some time as there are 75 in the project. Any ideas how I can open this project to work on?
    Regards,
    Graham

    When you open a CS4 project in CS5, the required conversion will result in a new filename with _1 appended to the name. Then when opening this project you need to show PR where the files are located by directing it to the correct directory. Once you have done that for the first file, it will automatically find the other files in that directory. Since you have now offlined all the files by skipping them, I suggest you delete this CS5 project and import again from CS4 and taking the little time to direct PR to the correct media.

  • Unable to open X5 project

    The project I work on is created with RoboHelp X5. One of my
    clients is updating his own help for my project and uses RoboHelp6.
    Now the project he just sent back to me won't open in RoboHelp X5
    anymore. I always get error:
    "This project is from a newer version of the program. This
    project is no longer compatible with this version. Please make sure
    you have the newest version installed".
    However I cannot upgrade to RoboHelp6 since other clients are
    still using RoboHelp X5. Asking everyone to upgrade is not an
    option.
    I also tried opening the "hhp" file instead of the "xpj"
    file, but that also fails with the same error message. In addition
    I then get the message "Unable to create database. Check that the
    directory is not read-only."
    All the files are on the local disk of the PC (not on a
    network drive) and the folders are writable.
    Any suggestions would be welcome.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Option 1] Hop over to PayPal and send me an obscene amount of
    money! I'll come and fix it wherever you are.
    Option 2] Delete the CPD file before opening the project from
    the XPJ file. It will open and should be OK provided the client has
    not done anything RH6 specific, like use variables. There's more
    about this in the topic about Opening Projects on my site.
    Are you aware that you can run both X5 and RH6 on the same
    PC? You have to buy the full version of RH6, not the upgrade, but
    they work quite happily together.

  • Unable to open iMovie project?

    I made a simple iMovie 09 project and burned it to a DVD via iDVD.  
    Then, to save space on my HD, I moved the project to an external HD.
    Now I want to go back to the project to make some edits.   But when took it out of the external HD and placed it on my desktop, I am unable to open it in iMovie.   I've tried simply clicking on the project icon as well as doing File>Import>Movie.  I also tried clicking and dragging the movie icon from the desktop to iMovie with no luck.  iMovie just doesn't see to want to recognize it.
    Can someone help?   Thanks? 

    Hi
    There are so many things to this.
    A. Flash drive - I even don't know if they would ever work - very doubtful
    B. External hard disks - MUST be Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted -
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most other things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO no matter if iMovie, iDVD or FinalCut is used.
    C. In the folder iMovie Projects - There are NO MOVIES - but text-documents related to the projects and this document points to the Raw material in iMovie Events folder and how it is supposed to be Played/Viewed in this particular project. e.g. play Clip A from 00:00:01:13 to 00:03:45:02 and so on. So there are no movies in the project folder.
    D. So if both iMovie Events and iMovie Projects folder are copied over to an external hard disk - Then the iMovie in the second Mac has no links to this and will not find it.
    SO to be able to work with one project on two Macs - all moving's of Events and Projects should be done within the iMovie Application - Not on DeskTop/Finder - do not alter or move any folder named
    • iMovie Events
    • iMovie Projects
    on DeskTop/Finder - as they can mess-up and be very hard to impossible to mend.

  • Unable to open IMovie Project in IDVD

    I have created a 40 minute movie in IMovie 08 (my first). I am unable to open the movie in IDVD 08 and Garage Band. The project name is visible in the media browser but is not available for selection.
    I have published the movie to the media browser and it still is not available to IDVD.
    I am new to apple computers and have been unable to get help with this problem.

    Here's two things to try:
    This frequently helps solve some problems. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
    You'll need to reset some Preferences.

  • Unable To Open Saved WI Reports in IE 9-Receive Invalid Path Error

    I am unable to open any saved web intelligence report documents in Internet Explorer 9.  When I select view or modify, the java report panel does not initiate but instead gives me an error stating "Invalid path /AnalyticalReporting/WebiView was requested".  Everything works fine if I use Firefox 9.   Is it a setting I need to change in internet explorer somewhere or is it a compaitibility issue?
    I can create new web intelligence queries and reports in IE 9, but if I try to open a report that I saved, I get an error.

    Hello,
    If you are using the older version of BOXI in that case IE 9 is not supported. Please check your Boxi version which supports IE 9 or not.

  • Unable to open saved edited jpeg image

    Not being the most techie type person, sorry if this is repeated in numerous place on the forum. I can see, and open, the images in thumbnail form in my 'Picture - Library'. I can then edit them in PE 10, but when I 'save as' (and I save as jpeg image with a version of IMG_****.jpeg copy ) the 'copy' jpeg thumbnail appears in the library as a blank page and no image. I'm then unable to open the 'saved' copy as it's the 'wrong type'. I've tried numerous images but to no avail. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Change IMG_****.jpeg copy to IMG_****copy.jpeg

  • How do I open old projects in CS5?!

    I just purchased a new iMac for our office. The old version of Premier (Premier 6.5) we had wouldn't run with the new OS system (10.6.4), so we've upgraded to CS5 and now none of our older projects will open... this creates a huge problem since we do a lot of 30 second tv spots for local car dealers and they tend to change only a few minor things every month. Might be the color of a car or the current incentive. So I just build off last month's commercial instead of redesigning the wheel every time... is there a way to open or import my older projects or am I pretty much screwed and have to recreate them?
    thanks,
    Rick

    CS5 is not designed to open projects made in any version before CS3.  I doubt even Premiere Pro 2.0 projects will open or import in CS5.
    Sorry, Jeff--gotta call you out on this one:
    From the help docs linked above (emphasis is mine):
    You can add the contents of a project made
    with Premiere Pro CS3 on either Mac OS or Windows. In addition,
    on Windows, you can import a project made with earlier versions
    of Premiere Pro, or Premiere 6.0 or 6.5. The imported project’s clips
    and sequences are added to the Project panel in a bin named after
    the imported project. The bin hierarchy of the imported project
    is maintained within its new bin. Discontinued transitions and effects
    are not maintained. Use caution when importing a project into another
    project with a different time base or audio sample rate, because
    these differences may affect edit positioning and audio quality.
    Importing
    a project into another project is the only way to transfer its complete sequence
    and clip information.
    Also, you can open projects made with
    Premiere Pro for Windows, including any contents that may have been
    imported from earlier versions, in Premiere Pro for Mac OS.
    True, the project files won't "open," per se, but at least on Windows, you can go back quite a way. I've personally imported Premiere 6.0/6.5 PC projects into CS5 without an issue.
    As the last line of the quote above mentions, you can get old Premiere projects (Mac or PC I'm guessing, since it doesn't specify) into the Mac version of CS5 by routing through the Windows version. Two step, perhaps, but it's better than nothing.

  • Can't open saved project

    Hi,
    I'm having problems trying to open saved encore projects. I get an error message saying "The player used to create the project could not be found. Defaulting to the Adobe player". When I click OK the program then either freezes or crashes.
    I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and have all the latest downloads installed for both Encore and the computer itself, including display drivers.
    Can anybody suggest what I might be doing wrong?
    Many thanks,
