Hey, I've recently came across an issue trying to open a project that I've been working on for weeks now.
When I try to open the project, the progress bar makes it approximately 3/4 of the way across, and then a message comes up saying "Your system has run out of application memory. I can't get past this stage.
Wondering if anyone here has some ideas that could help with this... I don't want to lose all my work that I've done over the last few weeks.
Here's what I've tried so far:
None of these attempts worked.
I've included some pictures below to show the error, and more information about my laptop.
Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated!
Thanks for the info. It sounds like you are having trouble with a corrupt project file. Can you try importing the old project into a new project? Let us know if that works.
Thanks,
Kevin

Here's another screenshot showing the error along with the activity monitor.

Thanks Kevin.
I tried importing the whole project and importing just a few sequences but I end up running out of application memory again. Are there any other suggestions on how to import these?

It's definitely a Premiere issue. My whole team (4 editors) and I started seeing this message this week -- for the first time ever. All of us. We're on Mac Studios w/ 128GB of RAM with Premiere being the only application open. Premiere has a memory leak somewhere. Hopefully we get a fix soon. This bug is killing us.

It's definitely killing me. I'm losing days of works because of this bug - have you found the solution?

I'm on a 70 TB project (TV series) and the exact same thing has stalled me for the entire week. I can't find a work around. Any updated answers?

@Jimmy Sites - Not sure if this will solve it but I was having a similar issues on large transcript runs on documnetary interviews. The memory would flood and then because my startup disk didn't have a ton of space on it it would fill that then there would be issues. I basically just had to clear more of my startup disk (where my cache also is), the internal solid state drive enough so that it could get through whatever bulky task it was hitting. It seems like it has surge moment where it would fill up my startup disk alot more and then once it made it through that period it was fine (space would clear on startup disk as memory demands normalized). For reference I had about 40GB on my startup disk when I had issues but once I cleared up to about 110GB it was fine. I would still watch it dump like 50GB onto the startup disk for a minute or two at times, but there was enough space that it didn't freeze or error in Premiere. Hope this might help you.

I also just had this happen for the first time. I am building a fairly large project for a documentary, I moved some stuff to a new drive and it is building Peak files and I am transcribing sequences of interviews. I have NEVER had Premiere flood my computers memory like this before and worked on some decently large Premeire projects before. I am on M1Pro Mac with 32GB unified memory. Is this a bug on the latest premiere update?

I seemed to resolve this for now by resetting Premiere preference (using shift key at startup) and moving the cache location to an extranal SSD via highspeed USB-C connection.
The program again flooded the system memory for about 45 seconds while generating peak files and transcribing a new sequences at the start of the process again, at which point my startup disk space started dropping but then it seemingly snapped out of it. Now the Premiere memory usage in activity monitor seems normal again. I think having enough startup disk space for it to get thru this first phase is important potentially.
The usage spiked again while transcribing and generating peak files, it seems the program hits high usage periods that fluctuate wildly during these processes (I am not really scrubbing or editing just building transcripts and peak files during this time).
Will keep an eye on it and respond with my findings here if anything else arises.

Thank you so much for sharing this, I'm going to try this now! I've been running into this same issue. Can hardly edit for 15 minutes before "application memory is full" message. I haven't had this issue ever & I'm using a <1 year old MacBook Pro
