Hi,

 

I have created a video on a Pixel 6a and am not able to export it to YouTube.

It gives two errors:

- can't save video to disc

- can't currently export to YouTube

I have already signed out and in again. Restarted the device multiple times, but nothing changes. 

 

Below is the error (in Dutch) that shows after rendering. 

 In have found multiple similar threats, but unfortunately no solution so far.

 

Please help.

 

Mod note: change the title for search purposes. Thanks for the link and solution to your issue. It is appreciated!

    Hi @Vivienne_Smith0769, Hi everyone,

    I'm updating this thread with the current manual workflow for moving Premiere Rush projects from a mobile device to Rush on a Mac or Windows PC.

    First, on your phone or tablet:

    1. Open Premiere Rush.
    2. Go to Preferences > Share Logs.
    3. Choose Share logs and project files.
    4. Transfer the exported project files to your computer using AirDrop, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, USB, or another file-transfer method.

    You will also need to transfer the original video, audio, and image files used by the project.

    Windows

    Rush stores its local project data here:

    C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Team Projects Local Hub

    Copy the exported Rush project data into the corresponding location in the Team Projects Local Hub.

    I recommend backing up the existing Team Projects Local Hub folder before copying anything into it rather than replacing existing project data.

    macOS

    Rush stores its local project data here:

    ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Team Projects Local Hub

    The Library folder is hidden by default. In Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder and paste the path above.

    Copy the exported Rush project data into the corresponding location in the Team Projects Local Hub. Again, I recommend backing up the existing folder first.

    After transferring the project

    Launch Premiere Rush on your computer and check whether the project appears. Open it and relink any missing source media as needed.

    Once the project opens successfully in Rush desktop, you can move it into Premiere for continued editing.

    Thanks to everyone in this thread who helped work out and verify this manual workflow.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    As title states, I started a Premiere Rush project on my iPad. However, I can't figure out how to open and finish editing on my laptop. I read that Creative Cloud Sync was the go to method before, but as that has now been discontinued, what are my options?

     

    Thanks,

    Devon

        I have to explain this a bit more.

        I tried to sync my project to my PC and try to export is on the PC. This isn't apparently not possible anymore via CC. Therefore, I needed to export the project via exporting the logfiles (which can be found under settings) and import this in a specific folder on the PC. See the link for all the steps to follow. 

        After importing the project file, I had to copy all the media to the PC and relink all the items one by one. 

        Finally I was able to start exporting. However, I needed to buy an additional subscription (because the mobile rush premium subscription is not sufficient).

        Nevertheless, it works and I was able to export the video.

          Wow! Thanks for the great post, @KoenBarendregt. As I was a little unsure of this new process, I think it is beneficial that you shared this information. I appreciate you doing that.

           

          Cheers,

          So, even though i have signed in with my adobe ID with all apps to premiere rush on mobile, is all of the ability to transfer a project to premiere pro disabled? I made an edit on my phone, and Premire rush will not export it because it cannot handle 4k 120 footage, so I figured ok I'll just push it over to my install of premiere pro but nope, it won't work.

           

          I have the project files on my computer but there doesn't seem to be a place to put them to make premiere recognize them as rush project files.

           

          Is rush basically useless now?

            I finally figured it out, if you go to

             

            C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe

            There is a Team Projects Local Hub

            Here you can paste the exported projects from premiere rush that you exported from Premiere rush mobile ->preferences ->share logs-> share logs and project files

              Hi @natalies35909954 ,

               

              Thanks for this information. I have tried this, and it does not seem to be working. I do not see any of my newly created Rush iPhone projects on my desktop.

              I've pasted the log files exported with rush_logs and the folder named "2021" exported with rush_projects. The 2021 folder has two sub-folders called local and synchronized. 

               

              Do you have any advice?  Pics of folders are attached.
