Motions Graphics problem

[keithw20273433]

Every time I try to use Motions Graphics I get the message that the template is corrupt, I have no message that I need to update my system. What can I do?

Hi @keithw20273433,

Sorry about this. Where did you get the template? You might need to contact the author of the template. Let us know.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin

Thank you for the reply, I've not added any templates these are what came with the Premiere Pro package.

Regards

Sorry about that @keithw20273433. I'm not seeing that here. Are you in an educational or enterprise environment?

Thanks,
Kevin

I actually moved the project to a PC and now think that it's a problem with my Mac and not the program. Thanks Kevin

Seems that Premiere Pro won't link the motion graphic templates consistently, even if the motion graphic template folder is just two levels from the Premiere project file location, and is also true obviously if that MGTM (motion graphics template media) folder is of its own making. And even if it does link to the motion graphic template (MGT) file, it might appear to be corrupt to the software (? wow, I'm smarter than the software!), which clearly isn't the case.

What I have found to work is uninstalling Premiere and reinstalling a previous version of Premiere (which really is inconvenient). Or a better solution that worked for me:  Copy an MGT file to the same level as the project folder (where the Premiere project file is written and stored) without a sub folder. Then you can browse to new MGT location when ready to link it. This process seemed to clear up other, though not all, MGT files that were previously supposedly corrupt. When linking to others after doing this, they seemed to link fine, even if still in the MGTF.

Thanks for the advice, Steve
