Fix for Copy/Move Sequence Issues in Premiere Pro Productions (25.1)

If you are facing issues copying or moving sequences between projects inside a Premier Pro Production, where dragging a sequence gives you the "forbidden" sign, you are not alone !

 

This often happens due to sequence complexity, cache issues or project settings.

 

Here are some tested solutions to fix the probelm:

 

1) Check Read/Write Permissions: Ensure both projects inside the production have the correct file permissions.

 

2) Use Import Instead: Instead of dragging, try file > import and manually select the sequence.

 

3) Clear Media Cache: Go to edit > preferences > media cache and clear old cache files.

 

4) Duplicate the sequence: Right-click on the sequence, duplicate it and try dragging the duplicate.

 

5) Create a new project: Copy the problematic sequence into a new standalone project and then reimport it into the production.

 

 If none of these work, try resetting Premier Pro Preferences (press alt+shift while launching).

 

Hope this can help everyone. If you have other solutions then you are more than welcome to add.

 

Thankyou !
