Why would my entire iMac lose audio from working in Premiere Pro?

When using Premiere Pro, my iMac lost all audio several times in a row. The action that kept causing this malfunction was pulling audio from the Source Moniter into my timeline. The audio clip is a .wav file and is mono, if those details help. The only thing that brings my audio back is restarting the computer. I've gone into my sys prefs for audio and nothing there helps. What could be causing this?

Hi,
Could be problematic clip.
Try with a different wav file and see if you can reproduce the issue.
Also test issue with the same wave file in a new project.
Good luck,
Chesterr

How do I get audio back on single clip that loses audio when imported into Premiere Pro CC?

I've got one clip out of many that for some reason won't play any audio when imported into Premiere Pro. I am new to Premiere Pro so am hoping it's something stupid I've done, but this is a problem with just a single clip exported the same way as all my others, the original audio is loud (not quiet) and none of the FAQ issues seem to apply (ie I haven't muted the audio or anything stupid like that)
The clip was exported from Plural Eyes into a "master" Premiere Pro project where the audio is fine. I exported it as a short MP4 clip and if I play the clip in Windows Media Player the audio is there loud and clear.
But when I import the clip into a fresh Preimiere Pro CC project this clip appears with just the "film strip" icon on the far left in the Timeline panel, unlike other clips which have an icon that shows "film strip" in the background and "audio wave" in the foreground.
I'm hitting so many glitches with the CC editions of Premiere Pro and After Effects which have annoying inconsistencies between them I'm tempted to just go back to Sony Vegas Pro (single program, no hassle) but hoping most of these issues are down to "newbie incompetence". Very hard to understand why this one clip out of many should be giving me this specific problem though. Any ideas?

I'm getting so many weird results. Most go away by simply closing the project and re-opening and I only have 6GB memory but even so, I'm disappointed by what I thought was supposed to be more "world class" video editing software than Sony Vegas Pro which I found to be a lot more stable. Also struggling with differences between Premiere and After Effects. Every time I want to do something in Pro I seem to need to go to After Effects and vice-versa. After Effects lets me do more of what I could "just do" in Vegas Pro timeline, but it's hideous for lining up audio and having to render anything in RAM to even get a clue as to what a change has done. Need to add Audition to the long list as well I suspect. Fun times!

Bad Header error importing Audio from Audition to Premiere Pro

Hey guys,
I'm not sure if anyone is experiencing a problem like this below, but recently, I have been up in arms trying to export a 90-minute feature film's audio (Ch. 1=Dialogue - Ch. 2=M+E - 5.1 Surround Mix) in a .wav file format, and every time I try to export it out, it PLAYS in Quicktime player, but it WON'T import into Premiere Pro (citing BAD HEADER ERROR) in file. I basically tried to utilize every file format there is for audio and such, but nothing is working (including .aif, but it kept cutting out at 13mins into the show). I separated the dialogue music and sfx in 3 submixes, but I needed to combine the Music and Submix into 1 submix to have ONE DIALOGUE Submix, and ONE M+E submix for our distributors. Any help to fix this would be great.

Paul,
Sorry to hear about the PC -> Mac problem. Old 6.5 Mac Project opened fine in CS2 PC, after I added the file extensions.
As for the AVI, Curt is correct. There should be a utility for the Mac, like G-Spot, which will tell you everything about your AVI file. Unfortunatly, I do not know if G-Spot is ported for the Mac (www.headbands.com/gspot), so you might need to find similar for you platform. You can then identify the necessary CODEC and install it.
Last, you should be able to find an edit-shop that has CS3 on PC and get them to Import the old Project, then Export it in CS3, so you can open it on your Mac. If not a commercial shop, then maybe a friend with CS3 on PC? Next best thing might be to find a Mac with Premiere 6/6.5 (last Mac version, prior to CS3 ?) and try that route.
Good luck,
Hunt

Can't import audio from clip into Premiere Pro CC.

I can export a clip, with audio, from Premiere Pro, but when I import it back into PP the audio track is missing. I noticed that when I delete the .xmp file from the file folder the audio will import with the clip successfully. Can someone please instruct me as to how I can edit the .xmp file so as to correct this problem? Thanks.

I export a clip using the "match sequence settings".
Mmm, don't ever use that. It's for people who don't know what they're doing, and often causes more problems that it solves.
Better to know what you're doing and set up your export manually. Try that, then report back what happens.

.avi video clip audio not working in premiere pro but play is windows media player

Hi all,
Using .avi video files. They play fine in windows media player. In premiere pro, the video plays fine, but there is no audio. When moved to a sequence, it builds an audio track, but it is silent. Any help is appreciated.

AVI is a wrapper, what is inside YOUR wrapper - Exactly what is INSIDE the video you are editing?

Why would my iphone suddenly lose charge rapidly (6-7%/hr) with no use

Why would my iphone suddenly lose charge rapidly (6-7%/hr) with no use?

I had the same problem with my iPhone 5 AFTER I had upgraded to IOS.
Did a good deal of searching on this site and others and found that the main advice being given was to turn off all apps that are running in the background (From the home screen double press the home button and a visual list of all apps running in the background will appear. To turn them off simply swipe your finger upwards on each).
Found that this definitely solved my problem and now make sure I do this every time I use the phone.
Hope this helps

HT1349 Why would my intel imac wake at night unattended?

Why would my intel imac wake at night unattended?

Hey alexander1071,
I found an article that goes over some tips for when your computer won't stay in sleep mode:
If your Mac doesn’t go to sleep when you expect it to, or if it wakes up unexpectedly, you may need to change your sleep preferences or something may be waking your computer.
Make sure your computer’s sleep settings are set the way you want. In Energy Saver preferences, use the slider that controls the computer’s sleep.
Other users may be waking your computer remotely to use its shared resources. If you don’t want this to happen, open Energy Saver preferences and deselect “Wake for network access.”
Bluetooth devices can wake your computer. If you don’t want a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse to be able to wake the computer, open Bluetooth preferences, click Advanced, and then deselect “Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer.”
Key presses and mouse or trackpad clicks can wake your computer. If your computer wakes when you’re not present, something may be pressing the mouse button or keyboard.
Apps that access a disk can keep your computer from going to sleep. For example, iTunes accesses your disk to read the songs it plays, and DVD Player accesses the optical disc drive to play movies.
People using shared services on your computer can prevent it from sleeping. For example, they may be using a printer connected to your computer or accessing shared files stored on it. In Sharing preferences, turn off any services you don’t need to use by deselecting the On checkbox next to the service.
If Spotlight is indexing your hard disk, your computer won’t go to sleep. Click the Spotlight icon on the right side of the menu bar and check whether it says it’s indexing. Indexing your files can take several hours, depending on the number of files on your computer.
Malfunctioning USB, FireWire, and Thunderbolt devices may keep your computer from going to sleep. Disconnect those devices and see if your computer goes to sleep. If it does, reconnect each device, one at a time, until you find the one that’s malfunctioning. Contact that device’s manufacturer for more information.
Some PCI extension cards intentionally prevent a computer from going to sleep. Refer to the documentation that came with your card.

When I have two clips, one above the other, I would like to hear the audio from one at a time. How do I suppress temporarily one of that, in a easier way? Thank you.

When I have two clips, one above the other, I would like to hear the audio from one at a time. How do I suppress temporarily one of that, in a easier way? Thank you.

I would think you would drop down the audio level lines in the "Stereo" tab (FCP 6.0.6 view to me) in the clip's video window.
But then again, in my old version, I can't play two clips at once. But I figure if the newer FCP allow you to do that, then that's what I would do.

iTunes is part of OS X, which implies that iTunes was deleted, or that your OS X installation is corrupt. In either case, the easiest approach usually involves downloading the combo update for OS X — the so-called combo update, and not the delta update — and installing that.
Applying or re-applying the OS X combo update won't alter your user files, but will reload all recent OS X changes, and should also cause iTunes to be re-loaded.
If you are running Mavericks 10.9, then download and install the OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 combo update.
You'll want to have a backup of your system — updates don't fail often, but they can fail. If you don't have Time Machine or some other form of backups running, get that going first; before further changes here.

Entire 5tgb row dosen't work on macbook pro

My entire 5tgb row dosen't work on macbook pro 13". Anyone have a solution to make it work. It start 2 days ago.

I don't know of any software problem that would disable only that column of keys on any keyboard.
But I guess anything is possible.
Just who are those people that say it is software.
Upgrading the os won't fix a hardware problem.

Support for Growing files (DNxHD wrapped in MXF) from EVS in Premiere Pro?

We are using Premiere CC Pro on the Mac-plattform against a shared storage soulution. We need to be able to open growing files from an EVS system to edit soccer-highlights while the matches are still playing. The problem is that the codec is DNxHD 120 and the wrapper is MXF op1a. This works fine with a QT-wrapper, but not with a MXF-wrapper. It is not possible for us the change the wrapper on the EVS system, so we need to do something on the editing side. We have tested it, and confirmed that this works fine in Final Cut Pro and Avid, but we want to use Premiere Pro. Can you provide us with a solution? Please do not say that the solution is to use FCP... ;-) Thanks in advance for all help!

Hi Peter!
Latest version. Cc 2014 with all updates.
Mac OSX 10.10.2 Yosemite.
Error during opening. As soon as the file is closed, it opens fine.

From FCPX to Premiere Pro (Rendering?)

Looking for a quick simple answer to a quick and possibly foolish question. Is Rendering necessary before exporting in Premiere Pro? I ask because I feel like I can export a 30minute FCPX project with effects,text, transitions with render time and exporting in 10 minutes (exaggerating of course). But the same project, same situation, I have to wait an hour or two because of rendering then exporting.
Could be my MacBook Pro in general but just curious. I'd rather be in Premiere but I feel real comfortable in FCPX.
I have a MBP 15" Early 2011. Only upgrade is 16GB RAM.
Any help is appreciated.

I did like working in Premiere Pro for one of my school projects but the rendering time and exporting time for it made me stick with FCPX. It was a 45 second fictional commercial and it took over night to finish.
I'm sure I did something wrong or just not used to working in it. I did do some research about Rendering and from what I've read, people say it's unnecescary to render but could be just preference.

Thanks Todd for all the info. It is much appreciated and very helpful. On a different note, could you possibly direct me to the correct forum to fix this bug? I am suddenly recieving a warning on my System SSD referencing Adobe Exchange. Here is a screen grab to best explain:

I am just moving from FCPx to Premiere Pro

I am just moving from FCPx to Premiere Pro, and one of the things I'll miss with FCPx is all the free wipe's, templates, generators that were availible throught places like FCP.co Forum, is there any kind of free stuff available like this but for Premiere?
