For some reason whenever i bring in a picture into the timeline my entire time line freezes up. the entire video stops playing but the audio continues. I got this to stop but now where ever the pictures are in the timeline the yellow MEDIA PENDING screen comes up. I've started completely from scratch with a new project and the same thing keeps happening. Whats weird is this wasn't happening at all yesterday, just today. I know I doing something stupid but any help would be great. I have good pc so i know its not a hardware issue.

    Do you have context-menu entries for Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud drive or Apple's iCloud Photo Stream?  Any or all of those entries can cause serious delays in Windows handling of image files.  The delays will show up in Explorer as well, not just Pr.  To test, use Explorer to find a .jpg file and right-click it.  If it takes several seconds for the context menu to appear, then you have found the problem.
