Exporting your Premiere Pro project to MP4įirst, make sure you save your project if you encounter any errors during export. Just follow the instructions and your video will be exported to MP4 in no time at the best possible quality with or without Premiere Pro filter presets. Exporting video in Premiere Pro to MP4 or any other format may seem a little daunting at first, but it’s actually pretty easy to export video to Premiere Pro in whatever format you prefer. If you’ve just finished editing a video in Adobe Premiere Pro, you can export it in this format. So perhaps the problem has to do with whatever HEVC is? I hope this is fixed soon.MP4 video files are widely used for video. Note that I attempted this same process in Quicktime, but selected '4k' instead of '1080p', and it did *not* play on iPhone. I *unchecked* this box, and after exporting the file from Quicktime in this manner, I was able to transfer it successfully to my iPhone and play it. In Quicktime, I clicked Export As > 1080p, and in the following 'Save as' screen, there was a box that was pre-checked labeled 'Use HEVC'.

Here is a weird (not really practical) workaround I found after further experimenting:Īfter exporting a compostion from After Effects, I opened it on my Macbook using Quicktime. This same process of exporting and Airdropping video to my iPhone has worked perfectly for the past 2 years. I have not changed anything about my workflow. I'm starting to think that either Adobe or Apple has recently introduced an update that is causing this conflict.

However, when I try to download the file from my Dropbox to my phone, I receive the same error message. However, saving the file to iCould Drive doesn't fix the problem, either.Ĥ) I've tried to avoid Airdrop by saving the exported file to a shared file service such as my Dropbox. I am exporting it as an H.264 / mp4.Ģ) The exported video file plays fine on my Macbook.ģ) I try to Airdrop the file to my iPhone, and I receive the error message 'Failed to save item. I just posted more details in another forum, but I'll share here just in case someone finds them helpful in some way (?):ġ) I am exporting a composition from After Effects using Adobe Media Encoder.

I'd love to know more about why these particular presets fixed the issue, because I am currently having this same issue except with After Effects (and exporting from After Effects using Media Encoder).
