The Premiere Pro CS6 (6.0.2) update is available. There are a lot of bug fixes in this update, as well as HiDPI functionality for Retina Display, some new supported GPUs, and Windows 8 certification.
See this page for details:
No offence but the Approved List of GPU's Really starts to look absurd when a 650M card is added to the supported list for Macbooks but the 670M, 675M, and 680M are excluded even though they have equal or better specs but are PC laptops only. There is already enough confusion on the supported cards. This really just creates far more and looks silly.

I'm sorry but this "update" is such a load of horse manure! Bug fixes? What fixes? You haven't fixed anything. All my projects are totally trashed, most audio is completely de-synced, mangled or playing from a different clip altogether; Mono clips show up as Stereo and play in random channels; audio is not showing up in video clip or I get static "shock" and yet the audio is there and all fine viewed in anything else (thank God for that at least); carefully applied Luma Corrector now suddenly produces some washed out crap. What in the blody hell Adobe, this isn't some damn OSS project, people pay good money for your crap for professional work and to make a living off of. And ... it now crashes even more frequently than before (and it was already pretty ridiculous). I'm facing 3 weeks of completely wasted time and I just want to curl up in some corner and cry.
Do you know where your Media Cache files are located? If so go there and then Select all and then delete them. Create a new project changing the Render and Playback mode to Software MPE. Go down to the Project bin and select import. Change the drop down to Adobe Premiere Pro Projects. Select one of the Projects that is messed up and then select import selected sequences. Just import 1 sequence. Doubleclick on that Sequence to open it in the Timeline. See how the Sequence audio looks and runs then after conforming is finished.

OK I found the performance issue with 6.0.2 atleast so far that I am seeing are the Hyperthreading cores are not being utilized on Windows. I will list the registry changes below. Unfortunately these will not work on OSX.
I will also insert image so you can see the registry locations for each.
Type Regedit in the search. Go to the following location
HKey_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
Change the Large System Cache from 0 to 1. Right Click on Large System Cache and select Modify. Change Value data from 0 to 1 and hit ok.
The Core parking requires searching for the Following Registry Key.
0cc5b647-c1df-4637-891a-dec35c318583
- Go to Regedit
- Find this key by selecting Edit and then Find at the top:- " 0cc5b647-c1df-4637-891a-dec35c318583 "
- Within this key, there is a value called: " ValueMax "
- This value represents the % number of cores the system will park - the default 100% ie: all Cores are potentially park-able
- Change the value from 64 to 0 so the " ValueMin " and " ValueMax " are both zero
- You will have to find the key a few times and repeat the process for each time it is found - the number of instances will depend on the number of power profiles in your system
So Far the Playback performance after those changes is back to normal.

For me, I can now scrub a Timeline of a RED sequence and see a bunch of frames go by. This didn't happen before! I used to drop frames like mad. My CTI isn't jumping around for no reason. The timeline plays when I hit play, and the CTi goes home the FIRST time (not the fifth) that I press the home key.
Yay!
Sorry some of you are having crashes.
Thanks, Adobe.
Hi Todd,
will it fix the problem I have http://forums.adobe.com/message/4620748#4620748 I do not want to download and install if the problems are not sorted out. As one of your staff stated on the above thread that they are aware of the problem and are working on it. It is 4+ months since the upgrade and still no results. I ask one question will ADOBE refund my CS6 upgrade as it would be better to go back to 5.5?
Why waste time on Win 8 certification if things dont work correctly with Win 7.

My initial optimism has been quashed. After working with 603 on Mac 10.7.4, I've learned this:
Loses video often (screen goes white), forcing a relaunch. Sliding a ProRes4444 with alpha clip is one cause. Inserting a Title from the titler is another cause.
Goes into Not Responding on Quit - 100% of the time. Must ALWAYS Force Quit to exit the app.
Serious Errors still occurring frequently.
Adobe MUST provide us a method to downgrade back to 6.0.2. I can't get any work done when I have to force quit Pr every few minutes and relaunch the app.

I have to modify this claim. It was Not Responding on Quit after I'd gotten the white screen (which is still frequently). If I quit while the app is "behaving," it quits normally.
I had a complex sequence that was cut on PP CS6.0. After updating to 6.02 about half the clips on the timeline showed "Media Pending". This was after I watched all the media get indexed and loaded.
I had to create a new sequence and then cut/paste the problematic timeline into the new timeline. Then all media was visible and played back just fine.
Outputted H.264 files are not functional since the 6.0.2 update. Have tried outputting to several H.264 presets with no success. I've been forced to output to .WMV before using Handbrake to convert to H.264. This isn't ideal to say the least.
