Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 Mac Will Not Open!

As of late, my AME has not been able to open at all. I really don't know how this happened.
My specs
Macbook Pro 13" Mid 2010 model
Processor 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB Ram
Mac OSX 10.8.3
I keep having crash errors reported bad access. And then I try to start reading the debug code, and then I fall over. And I usually do well with reading crash reports.
Any ideas? I have tried loading with default preferences and removing all third-party plugins.

I have the same problem since I update my mac book pro Mac Lion 10.7.3

  • Adobe media encoder cs5.5 fails to open queue for premiere export

    Adobe media encoder cs5.5 fails to open queue when exporting from premiere CS5.5. I'm using a standard Mpeg2 setting, and choosing the immediate export option works just fine. Upon choosing the Queue option, Adobe media encoder will show its splash screen.... Then nothing. Anyone else have this issue?

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 does not preview video in Lion 10.7.3

    In response to a question in the Adobe Forums about this [ http://forums.adobe.com/message/4302817#4302817 ], Adobe said:
    Apple changed something in 10.7.3 and we thought we worked with them to find all the fall out.  This one slipped through.  We will work with Apple to determine how we can address this.
    Are there any updates on when this will be fixed? Not being able to preview video in AME5.5/MacOS 10.7.3 is a serious bug. I have to go back to an earlier version of AME on a Windows machine to encode FLVs.

  • Media Encoder and DeviceCentral will not open

    Adobe Media Encoder will not launch from Premiere Pro and (along with Device Central) will not open as a stand alone.  I went through all of my Web Premium CS4 programs and they all open except for the programs mentioned above.  I added Premiere Pro CS4 last week.
    Error messages:
    Adobe Media Encoder.exe - entry point not found.  The procedure entry point - ??NewHandlerInitializer@ErrorManager@config@dvacore@@QAE@XZ could not be located in the dynamic link library dvacore.dII.
    DeviceCentral.exe - ordinal not found.  The ordinal 10526 could not be located in the dynamic link library SCL.dII.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Did you manage to sort this Randy?  I'm getting the same problem

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5 MAC Freezes

    Hi there,
    We all know that exporting files from Premier Pro into flv files (and some others takes some time).  An excellent way to work around this is to build up a queue of items in the Adobe Media Encoder. Then, you can run the queue when you are going to leave the computer for any length of time, say, overnight.
    I have Premier Pro CS5 and Media Encoder CS5 on a Mac and have just done all the various updates. Unfortunately, this does not solve my problem - if I have about 4 items in the queue, it works fine.  However, if I have, say 8 items in the queue, AME will freeze whilst working on about the 4th item.  This happens reasonably consistently and is very annoying - any suggestions how I can sort out this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    I am using a Macbook Pro with the i7 processor and 4 Gbyte of RAM, 7200 disk speed.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 crashing (not responding) when adding files

    Hello,
    I am running AME CS5.5 on a late 2010 MacBook Pro.  I have been trying to create some broadcast quality .mpg files for my local cable provider's Video On Demand service but AME keeps crashing on me whenever I add a .mov file to the queue.  I am using Final Cut Pro and Adobe After Effects CS5.5 to edit video and create animations.  I have been able to encode a few files into the required .mpg specs, but now I can't even add a file into the queue without it freezing up.  I then have to force quit the application to shut it down.  I have recently repaired my disk permissions and used DiskWarior to clean up and create a new directory.  Is this a known bug?  Is Adobe working on a fix.  I hope so because I have some projects due in mid-September and would hate to have to resort to using Apple's Compressor instead of AME since AME is faster.  Any help would be much appreciated.
    Here are my Mac specs:

    Is this happening with all files? Just QuickTime files? Just QuickTime files using a certain codec?
    I'm taking a shot in the dark, but any time that someeone mentions hangs and QuickTime, I suspect the problems described here:

  • Media Manager for Mac will not open

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 won't even start

    So, here I am at day 5 of the full CS5.5 install (after the trial period, during which everything functioned well) and each day there has been some new challenge. Today, Adobe Media Encoder just simply will not run. Not when trying to do an export from PPro and not just by itself, either. I get a splash screen for a few seconds, then it goes away and I get the notification that it has stopped working. Rebooting the system has not cured it. This isn't a game-stopper, inasmuchas I can still import a PPro sequence to After Effects and export from there. But certainly, I would like to use the AME. I also tried using the "Export" button in PPro's Export Settings window. Thankfully, it also works.
    My first instinct was to attempt an uninstall / reinstall of AME, but I found that uninstalling AME is not an option. I'm guessing it's part of another application, possibly PPro, but I don't know.
    What say you?

    Stan!!!
    I have a Matrox box also.  Please tell me, what was issue and how did you solve it?  Although, I'm half way done with the uninstall at this point.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5 not encoding

    I'm following lessons from Flash Professional CS5 Classroom in a Book. Chapter 8 is where I met Adobe Media Encoder CS5, but couldn't go any further with the lesson because as soon as I drag the penguin.mov to AME I get the message
    "Adobe Media Encoder Debug Event.

    I then click "Continue" and I get the Windows window saying "Windows is checking problem..." I click close to close the Windows window and it also closes AME.
    I open AME again and I drag my own Windows Media Files to see if it will work. AME works for awhile and then stops with the exclamation mark inside the yellow triangle under "Status" I click "Status" and I get this log messages:

  • How to open Adobe Media Encoder CS5 in Windows

    Please excuse my ignorance but how do you open Adobe Media Encoder?  I've searched everywhere and cannot find a solution.  In Adobe help,it says it's in the start menu under all programs but all I have been able to find is a folder with a bunch of dll files.  If I try to export a clip from Premiere Pro, It doesn't open, no error message or anything, simply nothing happens.  I found an update but that still didn't do anything, still no luck in finding it.  Thanks in advance for any feedback.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5 hangs when adding files of varying HD resolutions.

    I've seen questions similar to this related to CS4 but never explained very well, and my CS4 for mac worked fine.  I am unsure if this is a new problem or a windows specific problem but here is the situation, if you need more information I will gladly provide it.
    For the past week or so I have been encoding 1920x1080i mov files (h.264/aac) to 1280x720p (vp6/mp3) flvs.  When I stick to that single HD format in the AMC processing que everything works great. However, when I add older HD content into the AMC que, content with non-standard presets, the program hangs.  I tried to import about 15 files last night and the program just sat there all night in a '...NOT RESPONDING' state.  The video's have different audio and video settings and it's little difficult to pinpoint exactly what they were.  Some are 1440x1080, some are 1280x900, some have PCM audio some of mp3. 
    Now I temporarily resolved this issue by simply using cs4 master on my mac pro which worked great.  However I have noticed a huge speed increase in CS5 64bit AMC.  It takes 2-3 hours to encode 1 flash video on my mac pro (dual quad core xeon 2.9Ghz/32GB ram) with CS4.  It takes ~20 minutes on my windows 7 station (single core 2 quad 3Ghz/8GB ram) with CS5.
    How to replicate:
    If I drop a single file into the AMC CS5 que, regardless of the resolution, frame rate, or sound codec; it will import.  If I then add another file with a different resolution AMC will hang and become non-responsive.  It never crashed but I can't wait 12+ hours to see if it accepted a job or not.  As I said before this problem was not observed on CS4 for mac - it worked flawlessly, albeit a little slow. 
    Software used:
    Adobe Media Encoder CS5 windows 64bit
    Adobe Media Encoder CS4 mac 32bit
    System specs:
    Windows 7 home:
    Core 2 quad 3Ghz
    8GB ram
    80GB SSD x25-m
    nVidia Quadro 580
    OSX 10.6.3:

    32GB ram
    4 7200 disks in 4TB raid 0
    Radeon HD 2600
    Matrox MAX h.264 compressor card
    Any advice on this situation would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you for your time

    Hi Michael,
    Sorry to hear you're having problems with Adobe Media Encoder.  I'd like to get some more information about the problem so I can better understand your workflow, and potentially try to recreate the problem.  For what it's worth, I often import files of different resolutions without any problem, so I want to find out what's different about how you're using AME.
    Apologies for the long list of questions; the small details can be important.
    -- After you import the first file, what else do you do in AME?  Change the preset?  Change the settings?  Change the output destination?
    -- What are the properties of the files that are causing the problem?  You said it happens on "non-standard" files, but can you describe the specifications for one or more files that cause the problem?  Please include file type, length, frame rate, frame dimensions, field order (if applicable), alpha mode (if applicable), and audio type and rate.  If you know more the bitrate, both video and audio, that would be nice, too.
    -- If any of the files are small enough, could you post a couple online that I could try on my machine?
    -- How were these files generated?  What application created them?
    -- Where are the files stored? A local drive, a network drive, a removeable drive (USB or Firewire), etc.?
    -- Which Adobe application or suite do you have installed?  AME a limited set of options if you're using Flash or Web Premium compared to Master Collection, Production Premium, Premiere Pro, or After Effects.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS5 - 5.0.1 update

    When I try to update AME CS5 using Adobe Updater, I get this error message:
    The following updates were unable to install. If you wish to install these updates, please fix the problems below and retry:
    Adobe Media Encoder CS5 5.0.1
    Adobe Media Encoder CS5 has been moved or deleted improperly. Please launch or reinstall the application to update the location and try again. To remove the product from the system, please uninstall product using the aliases under "/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers"
    A few problems with this - there isn’t an AME uninstaller alias. Also there isn't an installer on the retail DVD, so I wouldn't be able to reinstall anyway. This is further complicated by the fact that the 5.0.1 update is not available online for download. Maybe I'm missing something here, and this is just a stupid mistake on my part.
    I have launched and used AME as well as checking that it is installed correctly (correct location) in my current configuration – still no luck with the auto update.
    Is there a way to tell Adobe (or Adobe Updater) the location of AME, so this install will complete successfully?
    Has anybody else seen this issue?
    Has anybody else resolved this issue?
    Any help is appreciated -

    System Config:
    MacBook Pro 5,1 (15-in, late 2008)
    OS 10.6.4
    2.53 GHz Core 2 Duo
    4GB 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM
    NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512 MB (and GeForce 9400M 256 MB)
    Adobe CS5 Master Collection (all current release except AME)
    AME 5.0.0.402 (64bit)

    I did install the Adobe Support Advisor before posting. ASA was a little quirky on the Mac as well, but I finally got it to work; however, it reported no issues. Thanks for the suggestion though.
    What I ended up doing was moving the AME directory to the root level on the system - and then back to it's original location in the Applications folder (same location it has been in). This must have updated something on the OS side because once I ran the updater again - all updates installed successfully.
    I'm not sure how the issue came about, but it appears that the OS or Adobe had some incorrect information in a config or installer log file somewhere and by moving the folder out and then back it was resolved/updated.
    thanks -

  • Both After Effects & Adobe Media Encode CC giving are not letting me export.

    Dear All,
    Both After Effects & Adobe Media Encode CC giving are not letting me export movies.
    Some times they will, but after one file both programs give me the following error messages.
    After effects:
    “[file path and name].mov. An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153464)"
    AME:
    "Can't read from source."
    I've went through the forum and found threads & pages discussing the problem.
    E.g.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/08/solutions-for-problems-with-quicktime-files-in -after-effects-cc-12-0-because-of-conflict-with-dvcprohdvideoout-quicktime-component.html
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1252092
    After following all the tips and suggestions (from deinstalling quicktime components & audio components to completely reinstalling CC) I'm still experiencing the problems.
    Which leaves me in a bit of a squeeze. I need to export over 144 movies in the coming 2 days and the only way to do this is to quit and open media encoder (or AE) after each single export.
    Not really an option.
    Both problems have the process Adobe QT sever in common, I took this from the console:
    9/26/13 1:02:44.517 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[171]: ([0x0-0x42042].com.adobe.Adobe QT32 Server.application[331]) Job appears to have crashed: Segmentation fault: 11

    Retina MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) (16gb ram)

    I don't no why Adobe puts out such a buggy piece of software (I know it has to with Apple's poor 32bit quicktime implimentation, but hey, this was known information no?).
    Upgrading to CC has given our office nothing but problems.
    Hope someone can help to find a work around until Adobe realeases a proper update and solves this problem once and for all.
    All help is much appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Martijn

    Hello Tim,
    Thanks for the really quick response!
    Regarding the crash log: it doesn't reference com.apple.audio.CoreAudio (though it did before, so I followed all the steps in your blog post before I posted to this forum).
    I've uploaded the crashlog to:
    http://martijnlambada.com/TMP/AdobeQT32servercrash.zip
    If you want to inspect it. It mentions the DXV codec (which I also uninstalled), but the crash keeps occuring. Also I need to export to DXV since it's the only codec the d3 media
    server accepts (http://d3technologies.com).
    I followed all the steps in the troubleshooting steps.
    Codecs used: I've tried everything from animation to Apple ProRes (including: h264/motion jpeg/uncompressed). With all codecs the Adobe QT32 server keeps crashing (though I can't always reproduce).
    Export destination: Internal SSD (same as where the OS is installed on) + External raid (via firewire & thunderbolt) + external HD via usb 3.0 (tried everything).
    When does the problem start: Really hard to specify, sometimes a day without crashes, sometimes every export for days on end. Sometime after restarting (tried logging out, restarting, switching off and on the computer). With other programs running and with out. Now checking every process active when exporting, and comparing log files.
    Can you export to other formats: See question 1, sometimes I can, sometimes not.
    When you launch AE and/or AME, is QT32 Server running? At what point does it stop running?  Still runing when I open the program. It crashes when exporting (ofter after finishing the first export).
    What component files are in your Library/QuickTime folder?: Currently the folowing:
    AppleAVCIntraCodec
    AppleHDVCodec.component
    AppleIntermediateCodec.component
    AppleMPEG2Codec.component
    AppleProResCodec.component
    DesktopVideoOut.component
    DVCPROHDCodec.component
    DVCPROHDMuxer.component
    DVCPROHDVideoDigitizer.component
    DVCPROHDVideoOutput.component
    DVCPROHDVideoOutputClock.component
    FCP Uncompressed 422.component
    iChatTheaterPreview.component
    IMXCodec.component
    LiveType.component
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Martijn
