and the New Project and New Sequence dialog boxes after opening Premiere Pro.
Open a project
Premiere Pro for Windows can open project files created with earlier versions of Premiere Pro or Adobe Premiere 6.x. You can open only one
project at a time. To transfer the contents of one project into another, use the Import command.
Use the Auto Save command to automatically save copies of your projects in the Premiere Pro Auto-Save folder.
You may encounter missing files as you work on a project. You can continue working by substituting offline files as placeholders for the missing
files. You can edit using offline files, but you must bring the originals back online before rendering your movie.
To bring a file back online after the project is open, use the Link Media command. You can continue working without having to close and reopen
the project.
1. Choose File > Open Project.
2. Browse to the project file and select it.
3. Select Open.
4. If the Where Is The File dialog box opens, locate the file using the Look In field, or choose one of the following in the Where Is The File
dialog box:
Launches the Windows Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac OS) search feature.
When moving a project and assets to a different machine, you can edit the file path in the project file so that Premiere Pro finds the files
associated with the project automatically. Open the PRPROJ file in a text editor, or in an XML editor like Dreamweaver. Search for the file
path that was used when the project was on the previous machine. Replace it with the file path on the new machine.
Replaces a missing file with a temporary offline clip for the duration of a session. When you close your project and then reopen it, you
see a dialog box that asks you to locate the file or allows you to skip it again.
Like Skip, Skip All replaces all missing files with temporary offline files.
Select Skip or Skip All only when you are certain that you want to rework all the instances where the file is used in the project. If you
want to keep the file in the project but can’t locate it at the moment, use Offline instead.
Stops Premiere Pro from searching for any preview files already rendered for the project. This allows the project to load
faster, but you may need to render parts of its sequences for best playback performance.
Replaces a missing file with an offline clip, a placeholder that preserves all references to the missing file everywhere in the project.
Unlike the temporary offline clip created by Skip, the one generated by Offline persists between sessions, so you won’t have to locate
