  • Adobe Premiere Pro 6 Copy and Paste Error

    Posted by Mike Cunliffe on July 15, 2013 at 4:25 pm

    I am using Adobe Premiere Pro 6 on a Mac Workstation running OS X 10.7.5. Any time I copy an audio track in the timeline and move it, then try to paste it again, Premiere crashes. I have posted this video to YouTube that shows the error as it happens:

    Has anyone had this happen before and if so, is there any way to prevent it? It happens almost without fail every time I use Premiere. We just switched over from Final Cut 7, which has been the biggest disaster since the Lone Ranger. Can’t stress enough how much I despise this program. This error is one of many that has be banging my head against the wall. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    The first thing I would suggest is that you option while you select the boom mic track so you don’t have to go through the unlinking part. Holding down the option key while lassoing a group or selecting a single instance temporarily unlinks the audio and video and is a much safer way to work especially with sync sound. Now that you’re in the option key state of mind, lasso the lav audio on track 2 and option drag it up into track 1. This will make and move a copy of the track up to 1 and ensure it stays in sync.

    Curious to see if this method causes it to crash.

    That worked, it did not crash by using the option key. Thanks! I still hold my breath whenever I use copy and paste, though.
