Issue - I create a sub-clip. Go to add a description in the project panel. After a couple seconds of typing the box will clear itself deleting what I have written and place the cursor back at the start of the box. See video. This happens everytime, without fail unless I can type the full description before it occurs. I have tried resetting preferences/cache and resetting to saved window layout and using only the deafult windows layouts.

Adobe Premiere Pro version number: PR 23

Operating system - Windows 11 Version 22H2

System Info: CPU, GPU, RAM, HD:

CPU - Ryzen 9 5900x

GPU and Driver Version - RTX 3080Ti + GTX 1070 (Studio 526.98)

RAM - 32gb DDR4 3200MHz

Hard Drive - SSD (OS + Adobe) / M.2 (Project/Footage) / 2nd M.2 (Cache)

Video format: MP4/MOV H.264 10 bit 4:2:2 25fps Rec.709 4K

Workflow details: Not sure what else is relevant here. Creating subclips in the source/project windows is all.

Steps to reproduce - Same as issue description.

Expected result - Be able to add a description

Actual result - It deletes my text after a few seconds

Hi Jay,

This sounds like a similar issue to one others have with the Save As function. I'll have to check. Thanks so much for the detailed info.

Thanks,
Kevin

Abdus,

Hi, I hope you had a good weekend.

This is a known issue, I am not on the product team, so I cannot comment on the bug's status. The team usually does not make mention of dates and times in their prospective bug fixes. Sorry. You can always check the Beta version for an upcoming fix. That application is updated frequently. I hope the info helps.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi,

When trying to shuffle through folders using the arrow keys during the export process, the window cancels out.

Attached is a video, where once I press any arrow key it closes out. Is there any solve to this?

I apologize if this is posted before.

Thanks!

Export name is highlighted, no folders are selected.

Might need to use the tab first.

Not a mac person so just guessing here.

This problem seems to have started just after I upgraded my MacBook Pro M1 to Ventura OS (v13.0).

I'm using Premiere Pro v.23.0.0 (Build 63).

Since the upgrade, when I try to modify a Premiere Pro project under "Save As...", the "Save Project" window just completely animates away and disappears.

I can still simply save the project with no difficulty as long as I don't modify the name. I can also completely rename the project. But when I use the arrow key to change an existing filename in the "Save Project" window, away goes the window!

For example:

I have an existing project I've named "My_Editing_Project_V1.prpoj" and I open the project in Premiere Pro and make some edits. Now I want to save the file as "My_Editing_Project_V2.prpoj".

Before I upgraded to Ventura, I could open the "Save Project" window via "File" > "Save As...", then use the arrow keys to place the cursor at the "1" on"My_Editing_Project_V1.prpoj" to change the "1" to a "2". Now the window goes away the moment I use an arrow key to move my cursor. I get the same result no matter if the entire filename is highlighted or just a portion of it is highlighted.

I can start the filename over from scratch and the "Save Project" window doesn't go away. However, that's not how I like to work. Some of my filenames need to be quite long.

Anyone else?

Update:

I thought, perhaps, the problem could have been that Premiere Pro upgraded itself to 23.0 at about the same time I updated my MAC and that this is a Premiere Pro 23 issue. I didn't receive any warnings nor did I click on anything to "OK" to give my blessing for an update. It just happened.

So, I down-graded to Premiere Pro Version 22.6.2 (Build 2), and the same filename problem exists with the older version, which leads me to believe the problem lies with the MAC Ventura upgrade.

Hey Turdcickle,

Welcome to the community, and sorry for the issue. We are aware of a similar problem, and the engineering team is working on fixing it. Could you confirm if the save window only closes when you press the arrow key?

Thanks,

Ishan

Yes -- that's correct. The "Save As..." window goes away the moment I press an arrow key.
