Adobe Premiere Pro not working on High Sierra

The only workaround I saw for an older system like mine (2012 27inch desktop, 32gig ram, i7)

was to change the render settings. Go to File - Project Settings - General and take it off the OpenCL or even Mercury

and just use the bottom - .."Software Only."

Takes you back to old school FCP7 where any footage manipulation (transitions, color, reframes) you will need

to render by hand but for me at least, it stopped the random crashing issue I was having.

Hope it helps....and "HOPEFULLY" Premiere pro, High Sierra updates come soon that fix this annoying problem.....Apple!? Hello!?

See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.

I'm having the exact same issue. After updating to High Sierra, PP 2018 crashes just simply scrubbing through

footage at random times. Luckily it does an auto save (and i have it on every 1 minute) so I haven't lost already edited work but this is just ridiculous.

It is definitely something buggy between High Sierra because I was working with PP 2018 before upgrading for like 2 months with no issues.

Anybody in the APPLE COMMUNITY seeing this? Is there a fix coming at some point?

I appreciate you sharing that workaround. For me, it's totally unacceptable that the most used video editing platform on the planet is now impossible to use on the latest MAC upgrade. I don't understand why this isn't a far bigger issue online. This is a massive FAIL that should be affecting thousands of people. Yes, it was dumb of me to upgrade without reading all the alarming user reports, but good ****, it's been three months! Are there really people out there who are running PP2018 on High Sierra and NOT having problems? If so, how? I'm dead in the water here. My options are insanely limiting. I just turned down a fair-sized post-project because of this, so it's now costing me in very real dollars and cents. To be honest, I'm actually pretty close to buying FCPX. (I have no time machine option to downgrade back to sierra.) I'm even considering dumping my Mac on ebay and rolling the dice on a (heaven help me) PC, or maybe an older Mac that doesn't have (and probably never WILL have) high sierra. How crazy is that? Never thought I'd have to make such dreadful choices just to stay in business. All because I clicked upgrade. Thanks, Apple. Thanks a lot.

Yep. I simply cannot use PP on my computer now. Not one version works. Limping along with 1 min auto saves. Same symptoms as OP. Frustrating!

Are there really people out there who are running PP2018 on High Sierra and NOT having problems?

Yes, I am having zero issues with it under High Sierra on a 2010 Mac Pro, 16GB of RAM and an SSD.

If so, how?

Many people disagree with this, but I truly believe it's all about never installing over a previous OS. I simply won't do it. When I read about all of the issues people come here for help with, and unless it's a genuine bug all users see, I never see any of these reported problems. Ever.

I saw proof of that just by going from the High Sierra beta to the official release. I was using a test partition for the beta. Installing the official release over it didn't fix many issues. Apps crashed, a lot of weird issues in general. You would think the official release would fix all of that. Installing 10.13.0 on an erased partition instantly "fixed" all of these issues.

It's a pain (mostly just really time consuming), but when the next major OS is released, I create a new partition and install it there. Then as I have time, I install all of my apps from scratch. I don't migrate anything, other than some preference files so I don't have to tediously reset all of my app's options the way I like them.

This does two things. One, all software is as clean as it can be. No old, orphaned files. No possibly corrupt apps or components (unlikely, anyway). If something doesn't work right away after this, then you know there's an actual problem with the new OS, or something a third party vendor needs to fix so their app works as expected.

The other, and bigger thing this does is it gives you a known, good setup you can boot back to while you're installing things under the new OS, and test that new OS thoroughly before moving to it as your day-to-day OS.

In short, always leave yourself an easy way back out.
