Correcting mistakes
If you change your mind or make a mistake, Premiere provides several ways to undo your work. You can undo only those actions that alter the video program; for example, you can undo an edit, but you cannot undo scrolling a window.
To correct mistakes:
Do one of the following:
To undo the most recent change, choose Edit > Undo. You can sequentially undo up to 99 of the most recent changes made to the program in any Premiere window. The 99 levels of undo are shared among all Premiere windows. To jump to a specific state of the project within the last 99 changes, select an item in the History palette. See Using the History palette. To undo all changes made since the last time you saved the project, choose File > Revert.To undo changes made before the last time you saved a project, try opening a previous version of your project that may be stored in the Project Archive folder. The degree to which you can go back depends on the settings you specified for automatic project archiving and how often you saved. See Saving and autosaving a project.To stop a change that Premiere isn't finished processing (for example, when you see a progress bar), press Esc, or press Command-period (Mac OS only)To close a dialog box without applying changes, click Cancel.
For both the Undo menu item and the History palette, you can specify the number of steps that can be undone. The default is 15. Specifying more steps increases memory requirements but may not affect performance.
To set the number of undo levels:
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > Auto Save and Undo.
2 In the History/Undo Levels section, type a number for Levels of Undo (1 to 99) and click OK.
3 Exit and restart Premiere. You do not need to restart the computer.
