After Effects CC and Premiere Pro CC don't play well together on new Mac Pros

Would love some insight from folks on this.   We have welcomed 2 new mac pros w dual D700's into our edit suites and have found an issue we need some help finding a work around for.
With Creative Cloud we're used to rendering a large amount of graphics in After Effects, and while that's underway, our editors will often go on and work in Premiere on the edit.  Unfortunately, with the new Mac Pros After Effects render process seems to freeze up the moment we open Premiere and start to work.  Any fixes for this?  Special Memory allocation?  Patch?   I've heard the lack of Cuda might be the issue, but can't imagine Adobe would not support something that keeps their product running smoothly. 
Please let us know and we are grateful and thank you in advance...

  • CS6 and 'ZoneAlarm firewall + antivirus' don't play well together

    I downloaded CS6 and it worked fine, that is until I downloaded ZoneAlarm firewall + antivirus beta. What I do to make CS6 work is to get off the internet by disconecting my PC, turn off ZoneAlarm and then CS6 starts working again. I wonder if anyone has the same problem? And how to get around it. Thanks.

  • After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

    After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
    If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
    This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.
    See this document for details:
    "64-bit Windows required for After Effects and Premiere Pro CS6"
    In general, you can only download and use applications for which your computer system meets the minimum system requirements.
    Premiere Pro system requirements
    After Effects system requirements

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!

  • Fix for crash in After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 when Joesoft Hear audio enhancer installed

    After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 both can crash due to a conflict with the Joesoft Hear audio enhancer.
    We've just gotten confirmation from Joesoft that they've released a beta version of Hear that doesn't conflict with After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5. We're recommending that our customers who also use Hear install the 1.0.5b2 (build 490) beta version of Hear.
    Let us know on this forum thread whether this solution works for you. We on the After Effects and Premiere Pro teams will monitor this thread for feedback, and we'll make sure that the folks at Joesoft get the information that they need, too.
    When reporting back, be sure to let us know whether you've installed the Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) update and After Effects CS5 (10.0.1) update.

    After 2 days trying to get AE and Premiere past the mediacore initialization message, I finally stumbled on this little message.  Updating Hear definitely solves the problem!

  • Adobe After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 wont work on OS lion

    I just bought a teacher Edition of Adobe Production Premium. I installed the softwares on my Mac which is running OS Lion 10.8.2. Everything works except Adobe After Effects CS6 and Adobe Premiere CS6. It always start up with the splash page then a pop up window opens that reads unexpected error occured send to apple.
    I don't understand because Photoshop, illustrator and the other softwares worked fine.
    I have tried uninstalling, re-installing, re-starting and even tried to download the After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 on creative cloud thinking that maybe those on the web will be more updated to address the issue.
    But still I cant get it to work.
    Please help.

  • When watching my Apple TV (3rd gen) the picture jumps a few frame every few seconds, this happens when I rent a film or play back from my new Mac Pro, my Wifi is the Airport Express.

    When watching my Apple TV (3rd gen) the picture jumps a few frames every few seconds, this happens when I rent a film or play back from my new Mac Pro, my Wifi is the Airport Express.

    These may be different issues, but lets look at rentals first.
    Poor motion can result from mismatched output. If your source is 24 or 30 fps you should set the output of the Apple TV to 60 Hz, for 25 fps content use 50 Hz.
    Additionally motion software on the TV itself can cause the picture to jump, check your TV settings and turn off any motion settings in use,

  • How well does a new Mac Pro work with Adobe Premiere CC 2014

    I'm trying to spec out a new Mac Pro so I can edit 4K footage from a RED camera. I currently edit using Premiere CC 2014. I've heard all kinds of bad stories with the new Mac and Premiere and was wondering if anyone has had a good experience. These are the specs I'm looking at for the mac. Thanks in advance.

    Those AMD Dxxx and drivers as well as it may take a product cycle for Adobe if they are interested in the 6,1 customer base.
    Dual AMD PCIe 7xxx and above even in dual setups, or of course you can throw one or two nVidia GTX 7xx into those silver "oMP" 2009-2012s (the 2008 just lacks good decent PCIe GPU performance with good graphic cards).
    Also the way the nMP will 'share' and throttle to limit itself to 450W and its thermal design so that both GPUs and the processor are not both given full reign (they do when running Windows 8.1 natively - 8.1 because that is the "oldest" version supported with drivers and booting via Apple).

  • Will a Lenovo LI2821 work well with a new Mac Pro?

    I'd like a 4k monitor or better for my new Mac Pro Computer. I'd also like it to have a Web Cam. I found the Lenovo LI2821... but I'm concerned because it is much cheaper than other monitors. Anyone have experience (or things I should be aware of )with this monitor and the new Mac Pro?

    The image is display through an LCD screen on all non-plasma screens. LED refers to the backlight source. In the past florescent lights was used but now better one have LED backlight like the LG.
    On drawback of yours is that the screen type is TN which is old technology
    IPS (In-plane switching) is a screen technology used for liquid crystal displays (LCDs). It was designed to solve the main limitations of the twisted nematic field effect (TN) matrix LCDs in the late 1980s, such as relatively high response time, strong viewing angle dependence and low-quality color reproduction.

  • After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 Long Startup and Application Hang

    Problem:
    After Effects and Premiere Pro CS5.5 and CS6 are very slow to start all of a sudden.  Around 5 minutes to get to/by the intro dialogue box.  For AE, the majority of the time is spent on the "initializing user interface." Then, if I can make a comp, and even a layer inside that comp, it will "Hang" if I attempt to open AE's General preferences for example (no preferences window ever comes up).  This "hang" is what the Event Viewer in windows calls it, with the faulting module being afterfx.exe.  Premiere is not much different.   It makes it to the new project window fast, but after setting project parameters and creating the first sequence, I can't get into the preferences either and the application hangs.  It is important to note that if I have another application open, like Chrome or Firefox for example at the time the application hangs, they will freeze as well.  As soon as I kill the Afterfx.exe process, they come back to life.
    I have read nearly all threads on the subject, and am struggling to find a solution:
    Deleted preferences folder under my username's appdata.
    Turned off Firewall (network traffic from dynamiclink, qtserver, etc was allowed, but what the hay)
    ran windows system file checker/malwarebytes/rkill/rootkit detection.
    checked for windows compatibility checkboxes under the file.
    Uninstalled Wacom Tablet drivers
    Disabled Aero
    Started with ctrl-alt-shift to delete pref.
    uninstalled video driver and replaced with one 6 months ago.
    uninstalled, reinstalled, and tested various quicktime versions back to version 7.69
    moved plugins folder
    moved opengl's plugin out of the folder temporarily
    Disabled all 3rd party codecs (xvid was the only one installed and for months)
    reinitialized default directshow filters
    checked for adobe font list (none found) and removed any fonts from 1 month ago to present.
    used msconfig to selective startup without other applications/services running.
    Uninstalled all adobe products, and reinstalled.
    I performed all of these in a systematic manner, trying to solve the problem.  None have fixed the problem.
    So it doesn't seem to be a network issue, a codec issue, a plugin issue, a driver issue, font issue, or conflicting application.  Any thoughts?
    System Info:
    PC Windows 7 pro 64-bit SP1
    Core i7 - 960 24GB ram
    AMD Radeon 6750  v12.10
    Adobe CS6 Master Collection

  • After Effects CC and Premiere CC both crashing after CUDA 5.5.47

    Both apps were working fine as of yesterday, and now neither will even startup after the latest CUDA update.
    Running Mavericks 10.9.2, as well as the latest updated CC apps.
    Please see the attached screenshots. Same things happens every time.
    I should also note that reverting back to 5.5.28 fixes the problem immedeately in both After Effects and Premiere.

    This morning I tried the update again... starting with this screen:
    As you can see, it wants me to update from 5.5.28 (which is working fine right now), to 5.5.47. I then ran the update, so it now looks like this:
    So now it's at 5.5.47. Interestingly enought the red "Update Required" text has disappeared. But guess what?? Everything is still crashing again. Have to roll back to 5.5.28, once again!!!

  • HT6030 Mavericks 10.9.1 and Gmail still don't play well together: help!

    I have 4 gmail acounts and Mavericks and iOS 7 still don't get along despite having the latest versions of everything.
    Mail deleted one place still shows up in another.
    Counts are totally wrong between my MacAir my iMac and my iPad and iPhone and appear totally random.
    At times mail won't show up on the iMac or MacAir for days or even weeks when there may be hundreds of messages that show up in my web browser and sometimes on the iPhone and iPad, but it seems totally arbitrary and to make no sense when it does one thing or the other.
    I have no custom settings on gmail, nothing strange, just use it in the most basic ways there are.
    Anyone else still having this problem and what to do about it? It is no better from 10.9 to 10.9.1, and has been causing problems since the moment Mavericks was installed.
    Come on, Apple! You have a $100 billion in the back: hire people who can code a mail program or talk with the people who coded Mail for Mountain Lion, as it worked just fine.

    10.8 worked well with my Mac Mini (2009) connected to IOGEAR KVM model GCS1108. My mouse is from Redmond and the keyboard is a Goldtouch.
    Mavericks has a problem with my KVM switch as well. It seems to be a USB problem.
    Case 1: The Mini's video is connected to the KVM switch -- mini DVI port to DVI. If the KVM USB cable (known good) is connected, the Mini chimes at boot but no grey Apple logo appears. LCD remains blank white. Boot does not progress.
    Case 2: The Mini's video is connected to the KVM switch, as before. If the KVM USB cable is NOT connected, the Mini chimes at boot, the grey logo appears, and boot proceeds normally. Video is fine. I  then connect the KVM USB cable to the Mini and use keyboard and mouse. KVM switching works as expected.
    If the KVM USB cable is NOT connected but a keyboard and mouse are connected directly to the Mini, the boot sequence is normal. Video works.
    The problem is not the hardware, all of which worked well with 10.8 (Mountain Lion). I would downgrade if Apple made 10.8 available from the App Store.

  • ICal, Mail, and Exchange don't play well together

    I running Lion. Syncing happens for the most part, but there are bugs. When I create events, the name of the event reverts back to New Event after it syncs with the Exchange server. This isn't my biggest issue. The problem I desperately want to solve is that my calendar invitations do not show in Mail. The only way I can accept/decline invitations is in the iCal Invitations tray. This means that I cannot see comments people make in invitations, or even more importantly, when then decline my invitations. I know it works as it should for another user on our network, but not for me. We're both running the same apps and the same operating system.
    Any thoughts on how to make the Apple apps play well, or what is the best way to wipe everything and start over? Fresh install, etc. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

    I appreciate the response, but it's not the same issue. True, the "erasing the event name and reverting back to New Event" is the same, but as I said, that's not my biggest issue. I have not seen any other threads anywhere that reflect the issue of event invitations not showing in Mail (although I'm sure someone else has experienced it).
    Sine there's someone else at my company with the same setup, and it's working, I was hoping that someone could suggest the best process for wiping everything out and re-installing. I used to do this back before the OSX days, but since OSX I've had so few problems that I've hardly ever needed to do any kind of support.

  • KVM switch and Mavericks don't play well together

    I upgraded to Mavericks yesterday, and started having this very annoying problem with my KVM switch, which used to work fine with Mountain Lion. I've been using this KVM switch for my mac mini and PC, in order to share my keyboard and mouse, very stably for several months.
    Basically, when switching back and forth, there is a chance that ALL the peripheral devices would stop working in Mavericks. This includes my apple bluetooth keyboard and the magic touchpad, which are not related with USB (or maybe the bluetooth chip is still hooked up via USB inside).
    For some reason, screen sharing stops working too, althought the IP I was trying to connect to was the ethernet port.
    If I try to do a shutdown -r now via SSH, the system tries to shut itself down, but would get stuck with a spinning animation on the screen.
    There is nothing in the system log, no error message.
    My KVM switch is an IOGear GCS42UW6. Connected USB devices are: Apple USB keyboard and Logitech G500 mouse.

  • After effects CS6 and premiere pro and adobe encoder crash when previewing profess 422 files, after upgrading to Mavericks

    I have tried all of the fixes and updates that adobe have to offer. They say that this is because of the change in QuickTIme that are causing the problem. Still looking for a fix. Please any help would be greatfully appreciated.

    I experienced this at one point.  Searching the WEB I saw suggestions that there was a problem with a recent version of Quicktime.  (I have no idea why the quicktime player would have an impact.)  However, reverting to an earlier version of Quicktime fixed the problem.  Search this board using quicktime as a search phase.  The quicktime web site allows you to download the earlier versions.  I'm not at my editing machine, but I believe that I am at version 7.5.2.
