This software with every update seems to get progressively worse.
My operating system:

Ignore what This thing says my storage is... the 110GB at the bottom is the accurate count of how much space I have.
There is a severe lag. I am using the LATEST updated version of Premiere. I am editing 1080p footage from a Canon Rebel T3i, also 1080p footage from an iPhone. When I first open the program it works smoothly then as time goes on (this accounts for 70% of my use of the software), the program window video slows, freezes, lags, goes black and sometimes takes several minutes to catch up or longer to the point where I have to close it and start it over again. This has been happening only in the past 2 months.
One of the "video experts" told me that although my computer is powerful it is not powerful enough to play DSLR footage seamlessly. Lie. I will probably come off as a jerk but I am extremely frustrated as this is literally my job and I am paying Adobe monthly for this service. I also paid $2500 for a powerful laptop that is BUILT for work like this and you're going to tell me my computer is not powerful enough to play baby DSLR footage at 1/4 quality? The same software that was used to million dollar hollywood movies such as Deadpool and Gone Girl? Come on.
What's going on with this software? Just now I was trying to import music into a bin that I had open by right-clicking and import and the files kept going into random other bins and I had to actually go through each of my 7 bins searching to find the music and clips I imported. The new text tool also is extremely laggy. Why do I have to highlight the text I'm working on to change the font, leading, size etc? I have the font clicked, why doesn't it just change on its own?
Any fixes to this would be helpful. The lag is the most important part as it is literally wasting my time and making me late with deliverables. Does anyone know when the next update is?
