  • Can’t Import PNG Logo to Timeline

    Posted by Ian Barrett on October 30, 2025 at 11:11 pm

    Cant import a logo as either PSD or png It keeps showing small icon of two columns with an arrow pointing downwards when I try to do this. Also the logo will show up but not any clips underneath it.

    Ive obviously hit a button wrong somewhere any ideas?

    Hey Ian,

    We need a bit more information to be able to make suggestions.

    What version of PPro are you using + system hardware and software?

    When in Photoshop, does the logo have a transparent background?
    And is it in the RGB colour space?

    Hope this helps?

    Hey Ian,

    Have you tried resaving the image as RGB in 8-Bit or 16-Bit Colour mode?

    The other obvious solution is for you to trash the preference and delete all render files.

    Maybe, set up a new project, and try to import the file there to see if that makes a difference?
    If you have it, take it straight into PPro Sequence via After Effects?
