Hi all, this seems like a stupid issue but its driving me crazy. I work such that I fairly frequently need to relink files due to file path changes and it used to be I simply located the first clip for Premiere and it would then automatically link all the files in that same folder that matched. The files are always in one folder so this made relinking a non-issue. All of a sudden now, Premiere won't link more than one file at a time no matter what I do. I've tried removing and reinstalling Premiere and updating everything on my Mac to the lastest version of everything but its still linking one at a time.  I hope this is just a dumb issue that I did something but whatever the solution, I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

Hi all,I have a copy of premiere 10 which I used to edit footage and export to bluray disc. Now I have a need to transfer some material from minidv tapes. I have imported the tape but when trying to burn to DVD I get a request to 'activate conponents'. Clicking on the provided link but it says page not found. Maybe to software version is too old ? Any ideas ?David.

I use the Export Frame feature to create a thumbnail for my video. In previous versions, exporting a frame included the subtitle which I use to create a large countdown timer effect. When I try Export Frame now, the subtitle is not showing. Has anyone run into this and found a way to include subtitles in the export frame? Previous: Now:As a workaround, I can of course create a text graphic and recreate the timer placement, but it’s more tedious than the previous capability of just exporting a frame. Just wondering if I missed a setting somewhere. Thanks in advance for your help!

Anyone else seeing consistent crashing of Premiere Pro 2026. I have the latest update as of February 4th, flushed cache multiple times, re-installed, re-started computer, etc. But certain elements such as:Scrubbing the Timeline Adding Effects Adding CAPTIONS (of all things)Freezes the program and requires a forced quit. Attached is where the captions usually sit and fail before the crash occurs.I’ll likely downgrade to Premiere Pro 2025 if not addressed soon - but checking to ensure I’m not the only one and I need to look at my own stuff? Currently on Macbook Pro 14” with M2 MAX.  

Hi!I am trying to understand how Adobe premiere pro works with the Mercury Transmit function to display preview on an external monitor.Which settings, if any, in PremPro affects the playback quality on the external monitor? I have tried to mess around with the sequence preview settings but it does not seem to have any impact on the playback on the external monitor. If I experience audio out of sync with the playback on the external monitor, is there any settings that can solve this? I run external monitor over a BlackMagic Design Decklink card and it works fine but one is always curious about how to tweak stuff if possible :-) Thanks advance for any input regarding this!​​​​​​​ 

Hallo, ich habe Premiere Pro installiert. Beim Öffnen wird mir angezeigt, dass Premiere Pro einen Zugriff auf die Ordner Desktop und Downloads benötigt. Wenn ich die Voreinstellungen öffne, wird angezeigt, dass ein Festplattenvollzugriff existiert. Ich kann an dieser Einstellung nichts ändern. Premiere Pro lässt sich nicht öffnen, die Meldung erscheint erneut. Deinstallation von Premiere Pro, Neustart IMAC, Neuinstallation - all dies löst das Problem nicht

Anyone else experiencing no playback in premiere at the moment?I've got so much editing work due at the moment and Premiere's just refusing to play anything sometimes.Not really sure what to do, I've done all the suggestions. Changed my audio hardware settings, and messed with all my visual settings, but I have everything on what should be the quickest speeds. I'm working in 1/8 as well.The only thing that's slightly worked has been moving to a different workspace (?) That sorted it out for a bit and then it just decided not to work in any workspace.PREMIERE VERSION 26.0.0MAC - Apple M3 MAX, 48GB 2023MacOS - Sequoia 15.3.2

Hi there,I have this issue that started out of the blue..When i open my Audio file in Project and play it in Source, audio is normal, but when i drag it to the timeline, its turnes way UP, peaking constantly. I have no effects on it or anything...I even tried opening the file in Audition, there is normal...I even lowered a bit, did some denosing etc, and when i save it and play it back in premiere, its peaking again, its like somehow Premiere adds +40 gain to it or similar, its constantly peaked at max...Did anyone have similar issue or know why is this happening? It started in the middle of a project i have been working on for a while, didn't change anything in the process.Best,Srdjan S.

for some reason, I can't hear any audio I place on track 3.  I can see the waves in the wave form, I can see the meters ...  every other track is fine.  If I move the audio for track 3 to any other track, I can hear it fine.  It has something to do with that track and I can't figure out what I've set wrong.  I've quit and restarted Premiere... I've quit and restarted the MAC.  I've listened to other sequences, and they all play track 3 fine.  It's only this sequence, it's only track 3...  I would attach a photo of my screen, but I don't think I can attach a file here?Thanks all! chris

In Premere Pro 2025 the action "Scale to Frame Size" is not working properly.  I have this set to the keyboard shortcut 'control+Q'.  When I press the keyboard shortcut, control+Q, the footage will scale to frame size as long as I'm holding it down, but when I release control+Q the footage will go back to it's previous size in the timeline.   In Premeire Pro 2024 all I had to do was hit control+Q and it would scale to frame size and keep it that way.

I’m trying to export a vid in Premier with on/off subtitles.I can burn the captions directly onto the video and can export with a sidecar file, but I can’t work out how to export the video so they can be turned on/off in viewers such as QuickTime.The only options in the export/captions dropdown are Burn Captions into Video or Create Sidecar file.

I am trying to blur faces in a video, i did this 4 months ago and it was much different because of this new update. I have the mask on and then I press auto track and watch it and then stop it when the mask goes off and readjust the mask to the face and track forward by one frame until it realigns and then press auto track again and repeat until the clip is done. I then go back to rewatch the clip and the mask at the beginning of the video is completely off. I have searched everywhere for why this is not working when I did this 4 months ago and this was working fine. 

In January, I started editing a project on a 2017 iMac, 2TB internal HDD with about 130GB free, using Premiere Pro v25.6 and proxies. It had to be sent serviced at an official Apple Store, for an internal cleanup as the fan started making a noise. Chose to upgrade the internal drive from a 2TB HDD to 2TB SSD, details of which I have shared in screenshots below.Meanwhile, I resumed my edit on a rented Macbook Air M1, 2020 (8GB). Mid-project Premiere Pro auto-upgraded from v25.6 to v26 and I continued editing till 2 days ago. The rental period lapsed and I had to return the Macbook Air and resume working on the serviced and upgarded iMac.The first problem I encountered was that the iMac isn’t compatible with Adobe app v26 so I installed v25.6, which didn’t allow me to open my project files as it was created in a newer version. I first used https://downgrader.elements.tv/ to downgrade the project, but v25.6 couldn’t open that file saying the file may be damaged. After following some instr

I am creating a stop motion video using Premiere Pro, when exporting my clip the end shows black. How do I get rid of the black ending? I want my clip to end on the last frame/photo.

Premiere 25.5Not sure if this is a feature or a bug. I made a post previously about how it now takes me 5 steps to apply a default transition (click on cut, KS apply transition, click on transition, click on transition again, move to start of cut). Part of this process is necessary because when I apply a default transition, it’s the cut that remains “focused” and not the transition I just applied, so once I apply the transition, I have to find the microscopic point where I can actually click on the transition to “focus” it, then move it. I would swear that in older versions the focus would immediately be on the applied transition instead of staying on the cut.

I created a mogrt in After Effects 2025 and exported it, no error messages. I imported the mogrt into Premiere 2025, no error messages. I replaced the placeholders using the Replace from Finder feature. I preplaced the 1 video and the 1 image with the exact same video and image that I used in after effects to make the mogrt. I then went to edit with the mogrt. I used the “Open in Timeline” feature so I could put in a new clip into mogrt. the clip played exactly how i wanted it to in that timeline that was inside the mogrt. When I closed that timeline and played the mogrt in my main project timeline I saw that the mogrt instead played the clip that I had put in there at the start of the entire clips timecode and not at the point to which I edited it to start at. I know this can work I’ve done it in older editions of adobe. So what’s happening here?

Hello,I would like to set the audio of my video at -3db, ie : I would like that the audio could go up to -3 db (for the peaks), without exceeding -3 db.What is the best Premiere Pro tool to use in order to do it ?

Hello,I recently made the poor decision to upgrade my 2019 Mac Pro (Intel) to macOS Sequoia.  I am running Premiere Pro 25.0.  After the OS upgrade I opened a Premiere project I was working on and noticed that in some areas where I had effects Premiere was reporting it was unable to load frames.  Even after transcoding and replacing the source footage, this problem persisted. While I managed to work around that annying issue, a much larger one emerged.  When attempting to export a project it reached 99% and then suddenly froxe my entire system and caused it to crash.  Hoping the issue was specifically with Premiere, I tried again by sending the project to Media Encoder.  Same result.  99% and then complete system shutdown. I have since managed to revert my system back to macOS Sonoma for the time being and Premiere works perfectly with those very same projects again.  I have seen a few crash threads on here, but nothing that quite match

Is there a problem with Transform effect in Premier Pro 2018 CC? It worked fine the first time I applied the effect in the timeline, but after I exported the video I realized none of the transform effects were applied to the video. I went back to the project, and it looks like it doesn't work on the existing clips in the timeline. If add a new clip in the timeline, it works fine.Is this a bug? or am I doing something wrong?I'm trying to create the motion blur effect with Transform(Distort) by key-framing the scale property from 100 to 130.This is not the first time I'm having problems. Last time Premier crashed and when I opened it back the Transform effect wouldn't work. The way I got around was by opening one of the autosave files before the crash.Here's a screen recording of what's going on.https://youtu.be/THnxirL5p8U

There are no cuts on the timeline, the entire movie file is one piece even though it consists of several tens of small fragments that I have been editing on the timeline for several days.

Hi, I just updated PremierPro to the latest version (25.2.1 build 2), and stared having issues with the masking tool.Essentially, when I try to modify the mask, it automatically expands. Attached are some screenshots of what I mean, as it is a bit hard to explain in writing.You can see in the second image, when I moved one of the points that it didn't pull the mask with it.

This happens both while working on the timeline and after rendering, RANDOMLY, and greatly interferes with color correction. It started after upgrading to Windows 11, followed by the release of Premiere 25.5, and all the trouble began. The image may flicker in contrast.All my drivers are up to date, and I installed the Studio driver via the N app and Intel GS.I found a similar thread on Reddit that explained that the problem could be caused by the RTX5090 and UHD Graphic 770 (13900k) rendering in different color spaces.Random periods of high contrast appear.To see an example of a render of this kind, watch the first 1-2 minutes of this video: https://youtu.be/Cg4xQBXNSFEHow can I fix or unify the color spaces?

Hello again,I am still trying to “collect and copy” files onto a separate SSD for the colorist, but it keeps freezing up on me.The first time it copied proxies instead of the full resolution media, so I detached them and reconnected the full media. But it still didn’t work, and I got an error message that all the files in a particular folder are still offline.  I have tried to relink these files several times by right clicking on “Reconnect Full Resolution Media” and following from there. They show up when I try to select them. But every time when I try to actually copy I get the same error messages about that same folder.  The weird thing is— ALL OF THESE CLIPS ARE SHOWING UP AND PLAYING IN THE TIMELINE. So, they would have to be linked, wouldn’t they??  What can be happening, how can I link the media properly?
