Hello! Currently I am trying to open up my premier pro projects. I am able to open the app on my iMac, but when I go to open a project, it will attempt to open, then it wont respond. I've reset my computer and restarted premiere a few times now. I'm unsure what to do next.

    Create a brand new project and import the old project into the new one via File > Import.

     

    Have patience, large projects take som time to import and one can get the impression that everything has freezed.

      Anyone reading this - this isn't the actual correct solution it's a work around. The correct solution at time of writing is to disable Mercury Transmit in your video playback preferences

        Please post a detailed report of your gear, workflow, and the issues as noted in a post on their UserVoice system. That's the direct input portal for the engineering team, as this forum is user-to-user peer support.

         

        Some people are hit by the things plaguing you, most aren't. They need to know when you've got the problem. And the data to compare with others to figure out why this is happening. I would note, it didn't happen with the public beta releases they'd been shipping prior to this most recent public release.

        Hello, I am having this exact same issue today. I downloaded the latest PP 14.5.0 (Build 51) later last week and cannot open any other projects this morning, than the one I had luckily left open over the weekend. I have iMac Pro 2017 and Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7

        Please advise what to do, as I also have to get back to an effective workflow today as well. 

        Thank you very much,

        Camille.
