Hey, what's happening! I'm Alli. Have you ever seen this show up when you open up a project in Premiere Pro me offline?

Don't worry, there's an easy solution to relink in your media. I'm gonna show you in 17 seconds why does this happen. There are several reasons that your media could go offline, like if you have files imported into your Adobe Premiere Pro CC project and outside of your project where the original source file is. You move the location of it around or you rename it or you delete the original file. If you do any of those things, Premiere Pro can't link back to the original source file, so you've got to relink it yourself. Let's look at how to do that:

GENERATED CAPTIONS:

So we're in Adobe Premiere Pro CC and we've got some clips that are offline scattered throughout our project. Let's make these offline clips a little easier to spot by right-clicking on the top of our project panel and choosing metadata display in the search bar type in status and under Premiere Pro CC project metadata checkmark status.

Now we can click on the status bar to organize all the offline media. We can easily select it. Click on that selected media and choose link media and you can see the file path where the original files lift the top file is already selected. Now let's click locate and since all of the offline files were in the same folder on my hard drive when they click OK.

All of these files will also relink so that's pretty easy but let's say we went over to our folder that the video files are in and moved one of these files out of the folder. I'm just gonna move this clip onto my desktop now I want to go back to Adobe Premiere Pro CC this pop-up window shows that the file is offline again. So let's click locate and the clips still not showing up. If this happens and you know that file is somewhere on your computer or your connected hard drive, click search and now premier is searching my entire computer for that file which is gonna take a little bit longer because it is going through so many files on my computer. There we go, the files been located. Click OK so well that's how to relink offline media in a few different situations. Keep in mind that real inking footage that's located in a random location isn't a very professional workflow to stay organized you'd want to have any project assets existing in one folder and then relink them to that location rather than having them located in multiple locations as a Premiere Pro CC Editor.
