    That is NOT correct.

    One can open Elements project in CC.

    File > Open Project.

    I believe this is windows only.

    No, you can do this only on windows not on a mac.

    Why? What is the reason? I like Premiere pro and work on a mac. Why is that a problem?

    Neil is correct. You can't.

    Once upon a time, you could open a Premiere Elements 3 file with Premiere Pro CS4, but not with CS6 or CC.

     

    The best that you can do is to export an mp4 from Elements and import it into Pro, but you won't be able to change existing edits.

    I don't think you can. The two programs do not share any code or working practices.
