Export>Media Does not Function

[jared_r_clemence]

I'm running Adobe Premier Pro version 12.0, "Haberdasher" (Build 224) on a MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) with an NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1GB and Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB graphics cards.

Ever since I upgraded to macOS High Sierra (Version 10.13.2), I have been unable to export media.  Lately, the "Media" option on the file export window is greyed out, so it is not even an option.

What are some of the things that might cause the "Export Media" option to be unavailable?

Note: I have tried rebooting as well as restarting the application. I have looked for any stray Adobe applications and Force Quit them all in order to get a fresh boot on Premier.  Looking for any solutions or suggestions.

Can you right click on a sequence in Project panel and export?

yep, that worked for me (with similar issues)

A lot of people aren't aware that you have to first select the media to be exported before bringing up the Export menu.

So that means either clicking on a clip or series of clips in a bin or a sequence in a bin or timeline first. Then go to the export options.

I'm having a similar problem that I've posted about on other forums to receive no useful response. I have been unable to export anything and everything (even nothing) for 2 weeks now. When I click Export Media (in any location and not just top left) the system freezes and becomes unresponsive. I downgraded to Premiere 19 from 22 and the issue came back.
