Why ADOBE, WHY?
Having been forced to return to the use of premiere for work reasons for some time now, I continue to ask myself question after question...
In the latest updates you have moved windows then put them back where they were and then continuously moved and changed everything and more...

Not to mention the thousand unsolved problems, the workspaces that never and I mean never remain in their place despite constantly restoring and uninstalling the program (because the only solution you always give is this: "uninstall and reinstall"...)
Files that are not loaded into the project even though they are where they were taken...
It's appalling that for the price of your Suite you can't have a program that works as God commands
What remains is a heavy, cumbersome program that is lost in a glass of water for many things and which have never been fixed...
When, I would like to know, will you decide to fix it once and for all without all these malfunctions......

Some users seem to have far more issues than others. Frustrating, that is. Plain just works here. And of course, some changes occur over time unless you want an app to become moribund.

Anyone use dBase anymore? Alpha4? WordPerfect?

I just listed some of the latest problems I've encountered...
I have an endless list of screenshots and screen recordings that I could go on for hours listing...
Do you think it's right to pay generously for a service that certainly cannot be defined as a service? Why do we always have to be the ones in the forums to solve the myriad of problems that this program has, only to end up with updates that cause even more?

it's disgusting

What's incredibly frustrating is that some users, like you, get crappy performance. While the vast majority are simply working away.

I split between Premiere and Resolve, have for years. Same thing happens there. The majority work fine, but some get crud.

And although users like me can help for many things, we can't always sort these things out for everyone.

That frustrates me also. What the hay? I really wish I had an answer.

So "we" can help with specific things, most of the time, IF we get enough of the right details.

I'm sorry but I don't think it's right, as I said, that we users always have to communicate dozens of problems and see that on the other side and pay a subscription for continuous inefficiencies.... Am I complaining? Yes!! Because I can't waste time between continuous crashes, lack of communication with folders on servers, wrong workspaces, project teams that we don't talk about, and much more... should this be a productivity software? Does ADOBE want the help of users? (Who are not paid to solve their problems...) so that start doing something to be able to get optimal solutions in return. Since I started using premiere 15 years ago, the situation doesn't seem to have improved...

Apparently you misunderstood. I sympathize totally. Period.

But I'm frustrated that there are some users, like you, getting such poor performance. While most are doing ok.

"We" users here can only help with specific things though.

It's ok to post rants here. I've posted some epic ones.

But if you actually want to get your concerns and issues directly to the devs, they do have their specific process.

Post as Bugs, instead of Discussion posts.

Put your full hardware, media, effects used, and one specific problem in each post. Obviously copy/paste the hardware/media/effects data to each to save time.

ALL posted bugs do go directly to the devs.

This "Discussion" section is primarily user to user.

Are your custom Workspaces not saving as expected?

Report · Dec 29, 2024

Using TEAM Projects for work (team TV), I can confirm that the workspaces of each workstation, 4 in total, never remain as they are set. At every restart of the program, whatever workstation it is, the work spaces are changed every time, and each time they must be brought back to how each of us wants them.
...frustrating...

Same thing for a normal project.
I tried deleting and regenerating the specific workspaces folder but nothing changed.

Is Window > Workspaces > Import Workspace from project enabled?

Report · Dec 30, 2024

no because each of us uses a different workspace and wants to use our own workspace
