You’ll notice there’s an option to save a backup project to Creative Cloud.This option creates an additional backup of your project file in your Creative Cloud Files
folder. If you suffer a total system failure while working, you can log in to any Premiere Pro
editing system with your Adobe ID to access the backup project file and quickly carry on
working.There’s also the option Auto Save Also Saves The Current Project(s). When this option is
selected, saving or auto saving will also create an “emergency project backup”—a project
file that is a copy of the current version, with the same name. If you have a sudden system
failure (like a power outage), this is the file you will most likely want to open to continue
working.
Note
Premiere Pro allows you to open multiple projects at the same time. For this reason,
you’ll see options for “project(s)” rather than just “project.”6. Click Cancel to close the Preferences dialog box without applying any changes.Using and setting keyboard shortcuts
Premiere Pro makes extensive use of keyboard shortcuts. These are usually faster and easier
than clicking. Many keyboard shortcuts are shared universally by nonlinear editing systems.
The spacebar, for example, starts and stops playback—this even works on some websites.
Some standard keyboard shortcuts come from celluloid film-editing traditions. The I and O keys,
for example, are used to set In and Out marks on footage and sequences. These special marks
indicate the start and end of a desired section and were originally drawn on celluloid directly.
Other keyboard shortcuts are available but not configured by default. This allows flexibility
when setting up your editing system.
Choose Premiere Pro CC > Keyboard Shortcuts (macOS) or Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts
(Windows).
