Hello! Currently I am trying to open up my premier pro projects. I am able to open the app on my iMac, but when I go to open a project, it will attempt to open, then it wont respond. I've reset my computer and restarted premiere a few times now. I'm unsure what to do next.

Create a brand new project and import the old project into the new one via File > Import.

 

Have patience, large projects take som time to import and one can get the impression that everything has freezed.

Thanks Averdahl. This helped out. Will I need to keep repeating this process everytime I open up this project?

No, you just use the project in the new version.
