  • Can’t open a premiere pro project

    Posted by William Fargas on November 4, 2014 at 12:32 am

    I saved and edit from a school computer to my back up drive, the project was on the Premier Pro CC.
    When i tried to open the project on my laptop an error message comes up saying..

    “This project was saved in a newer version of Adobe Premiere Pro and cannot be opened in this version”.

    problem is my Premiere Pro CC on my laptop is the most current update.

    Any suggestions?

    Go to the Adobe site and download CC (2012). All major versions can co-exist on your computer without issue, and you have access to all major versions back to CS6.

    Just in case anyone else is dealing with this, I just found out that Premiere CC 2014 with the 8.2 update creates files that cannot be opened in 8.0.

    So you’ll have to update to 8.0.1 or newer to open them. It’s an unusual issue because we’re not talking about a full version difference, we’re talking about incompatibility within the same version, just different patches.

    I don’t know if this helps you William, since you said just CC, but it might be the same problem for CC.
