Editing a video or audio file can sometimes be frustrating due to unexpected greyed-out options. If you're experiencing issues trying to edit in Adobe Audition after exporting your project from Premiere Pro as a file type compatible with it (.aud), don't worry - this article will guide you through the simple steps necessary to resolve the problem.

Firstly, ensure that you have both Premiere Pro and Adobe Audition installed on your computer. If one of these applications is missing or corrupted, it could cause compatibility issues between them.

Next up, let's dive into some troubleshooting tips:

1. Ensure That You Have The Correct Version Of Premiere Pro And Audison Your Computer

If you're running an older version of either application than what the latest compatible versions are (which can be found on Adobe’s official website), this could potentially cause compatibility issues between them.

2. Check If The File Is Corrupted Or Damaged Before Trying To Edit It InAudition.

Sometimes, a corrupted or damaged audio file may not import correctly into Audition even if all other settings seem correct - try opening the same project in another video editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro to see if it imports successfully there first.

3. Ensure That You Have The Correct Plug-ins Installed For Your Operating System

If none of these solutions work, you might need to reinstall or update your plug-in suite for Audition depending on which operating system (Windows or Mac) you're using - head over here for more information about how to do this: 'We do not recommend downloading anything other than from the official website.'.

4. Check If There Are Any Conflicting Programs Running In The Background

It's also possible that another program is interfering with Adobe Audition's ability to edit your clip properly; try closing down any unnecessary applications and then trying again.

5. Try Exporting Your Project As A Different File Format Before Trying To Edit It Again.

If none of these suggestions resolve the issue, you might want to consider exporting your project as a different file format before attempting to edit it once more - sometimes this can help identify whether there's an underlying problem with how Premiere Pro is saving its projects.

6. Reinstall Adobe Audition If All Else Fails

As a last resort, if none of the above suggestions have resolved the issue for you then reinstalling both Premiere Pro and Audition completely may be necessary; head over here to learn more about how to do this: 'Do not download software from unofficial websites.'.
