barbpdx Feb 27, 2013 7:47 AM (in response to JSS1138)No, I'm not running with an admin account. I work for a school that will not allow me to have Admin access. Do I need admin access for this to work?
I tried uploading the .txt file from an external hard drive and from my desktop.

KeithGoldstein Sep 23, 2013 1:44 PM (in response to John T Smith)For what it is worth, I recently tried a text file again, and this time it worked. I am on an Admin account. Perhaps a past update fixed it. Didn't need to do the above step.

kenyongerbrandt Mar 13, 2014 2:47 PM (in response to megamanatl)I am also getting the "Reference script creation failed." error when attempting to import into Premiere Pro CC. I have attempted both UTF-8 TXT and ASTX files on my external HDD, my desktop and in my documents folder. All to the same end. I am running Mac OS X 10.9.2 with all current updates.

lewis_adobe May 9, 2014 10:56 AM (in response to KeithGoldstein)I just solved this issue on a On Mac OS X (10.9.2) system by changing the permissions on this folder (/Users/Shared/Adobe). Make sure that your currently logged in Mac User account has Read/Write permissions for this folder and all enclosed folders.

14. Re: Pr CS6 - Reference Script creation failed
kenyongerbrandt May 9, 2014 11:31 AM (in response to lewis_adobe)Not sure if I actually changed anything, but I went in. Clicked on the "unlock" then selected "cog" icon and clicked on "Make System The Owner". Then clicked through windows selecting/approving changes. Relocked the folder. And now Premiere Pro is allowing me to import txt files as reference scripts. I even have these files stored in my dropbox folder as I use the Teleprompt+ app on my iPad as teleprompter using the scripts.
Thank you so much Lewis for the resolution to this problem. I am very much appreciating how Adobe is incorporating the use of speech analysis and getting close to integrating that with subtitling...eventually this task will become much quicker and automated!
Scripting is the key!

qb0317 Jun 19, 2014 6:22 AM (in response to lewis_adobe)I got it to work. I looked at your comment again and saw that you said to set the permissions to read and write for every folder and after doing that it worked. Thank you so much.
