Does someone know if Premiere Pro does work under OSX 10.10 Yosemite? It does start but when i select new project and confirm the settings it crashes. Not with the same error that AE does though.

      I had some mission non-critical time to give it a try on my work machine. To date all my CC apps work fine under 10.10 (Pr, AE, Au, AME, Lr, Sg, Ps, Ai, Id, Mu). I did have a few unexpected quits with AE the first few times I edited a dynamic link but it seems to have settled down and is stable now. Legacy apps like FCP 7 and DVDSP work fine for me too.

      Adobe supports OSX 10.10: Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10) compatibility FAQs | CC

      Adobe and Apple have worked closely together to test Adobe Creative Cloud applications for reliability, performance and user experience when installed on Intel based systems running OS X Yosemite (v10.10). The latest versions of all Adobe CC products are compatible. In addition to the current Photoshop CC release (2014.2), the Photoshop team has also tested Photoshop CC (14.2.1) and CS6 (13.0.6; 13.1.2) for compatibility.

      But follow Kevin's sage-like advice and use some common sense: if you're in the middle of a big project or can't afford half a day to restore from the pre-10.10 backups you diligently made then stay with 10.9 or whatever.

      Has anyone had luck running PPro CS6 on Yosemite and it being able to read R3d RED footage?  I've done a clean install, I've cleared preferences, I tried re-installing RED drivers and nothing.  Media offline and "unsupported or damaged file" messages.

      Has anyone had luck running PPro CS6 on Yosemite and it being able to read R3d RED footage?  I've done a clean install, I've cleared preferences, I tried re-installing RED drivers and nothing.  Media offline and "unsupported or damaged file" messages.

      Hi Kevin,

      Yes, everything has been updated.  Is there something I'm missing?  I've gone over this so many times I think I've done all my troubleshooting options but still no luck.  Are others able to get CS6 to read r3d footage?

      I really appreciate your help on this.

      I applied the most recent OS X update (10.10.2) and I don't know if it's a coincidence or if there was a specific fix included but the first project I opened after the update seems to work well.  I see previews right away.  I will monitor in the next few days and update this thread.

      I'm looking to buy a new MacBook Pro, can anyone 100% confirm whether or not CS6 Suite will operate on Yosemite?  Going to be looking else where for a new computer if it doesn't.

      I am trying to simply DRAG a title frame into the sequence (as I have done before and expect) and REPEATEDLY get an immediate crash of the application.

      Hi Ginajack2014,

      Is this with a new project or an existing one? Can you try the same process with a brand new project and let us know if the same thing happens?

      Thanks,
      Kevin

      Sorry, I answered your question before I rebooted the system (after updating Java and Shockwave and shutting down PhotoShop) its clear now.

      Thanks for your promptness, nonetheless.

      No worries. I should have suggested this as I had the very same problem and solution with SpeedGrade. Glad you are up and running!

      Thanks,
      Kevin


      Did the "Media Pending" issue at startup get fixed? I'd sure like to go back to using Premiere Pro CC 2014 on Yosemite...

      I'm having minor problems with Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 on Yosemite. When I open the app the "Media Pending" screen stays on and the media doesn't show up at all. I have to force quit then I reopen the app and everything works fine. I have to do this two step process every time. Thoughts?

      I'm on an early 2011 15" Macbook Pro with AMD Radeon 6750 1GB VRAM 2.2 Quad core i7 and 16 GB of RAM. (editing off a SSD scratch)

      It's never a good idea to update project files or the OS in the middle of a project. Also, don't update an OS if you still are doing mission critical work on an older version of an application like Premiere Pro CS6.

      Please exercise caution in this regard.

      Hi Kevin!

      I was that idiot who updated my premiere pro in the middle of a project thinking it was a good idea. I went from the previous version of Premiere pro CC to the latest (premiere pro cc 2014) and now my sequence monitor is constantly freezing every time a try and playback a sequence! I was going to simply revert back to the older version of premiere pro, however, I've done a serious amount of work on the newer version now so going back really isn't an option.

      Is there any suggestions you could give me that may resolve my problem?

      Cheers,

      Tom

      Hi Tom,

      You can try creating a new project and importing the older project into the new one. That can sometimes work. Hope that helps.

      Thanks,

      Kevin

      OSX 10.10 Yosemite is not a supported OS yet. However, there are Premiere Pro users running it successfully now.


      A few things you can try:


      1. When launching Premiere Pro, hold down Shift+Option. This will trash your preferences and reload your plugins.

      2. Uninstall and then reinstall Premiere Pro

        This didn't work for me.  Premiere (cs5 and cs6) is bugging out hard for me now that I've installed Yosemite

          @zeburock - I have been reluctant to load Yosemite for exactly that reason.  What types of issues are you seeing?  I am CS6 and can't afford to not have Premiere, Photoshop, and After Effects.... Please keep us apprised to your progress too.  Thanks!
