Hi all,

dynamic link is not working between PP and AE ... It opens a new AE project when selected, the composition icon is there, but there's nothing on the timelime, no video no nothing ... even more annoyingly when I try to get customer support using "chat" it seems that option isn't open to me !

Any ideas??

I'm sitting in an edit getting mighty frustrated....

I'm also having huge problems with DL with Prem and AFX since updating both software's to the latest versions.

Everything was fine pre-update.

Constant crashing, nothing happening when trying to bring in AFX comps into Prem. Sluggish performance, endless "Media Pending" screens in PP which never manage to connect, just endless crashes and total non-responsiveness...

Me too.  When you try to link to an AE composition you created with the 2019 verison, it just doesn't se it.

The only thing that seems to work for me is to reinstall Premiere and AE 2019.  The new verstions are really not compatible with the old workflow.

Hey AlanEHoward,

Sorry for your issue with dynamic link.

Dynamic link works between same versions of the applications.

What is the exact version of Premiere Pro and After Effects that you're using? FAQ: How to find the exact version of Premiere Pro you're using?

What kind of a computer do you have? Which OS?

How are you trying to send your Premiere Pro footage to After Effects?

even more annoyingly when I try to get customer support using "chat" it seems that option isn't open to me !

That would happen when:

  1. You don't have a Creative Cloud subscription
  2. You are not logged in with the Adobe ID that has the subscription associated with it

Let us know.

Thanks!

Rameez

Hi Rameez,

I am having the same problem. After updating to the newest versions of AA (15.1.0, build 166) and PP (12.1.0, build 186), my AA motion graphic template no longer works and when I try to re-link it, PP tells me that I need to install AA—which of course I already have.

Thanks!
