Leopard, ps cs3 and 3rd party plugins

help again please.
I have PS CS3 and numerous 3rd party plugins but as soon as I installed the new OS 10.5 I get the msg. one or more plugins are currently unavailable on your system. They worked before the upgrade of os10.5. I even upgraded to 10.5.1..The plugins I can't get are Nik color efex pro complete and Nik sharpener pro complete. The Nik website states they are compatible. Other 3rd party plugins like Fluid Mask 3, Genuine Fractals and Flaming Pear all work. Help if you can please. I already have a msg. to Nik software for help but have not gotten an answer from them..
Thank you.
sincerely
karen

To use your Nik Software products on a new Intel-based Mac Computer with Photoshop CS3, simply follow these three easy steps below:
1. Quit / Exit out of Adobe Photoshop CS3 and navigate to the Adobe Photoshop CS3 application file which is typically at the following location: Macintosh HD | Applications | Adobe Photoshop CS3
2. Highlight the Adobe Photoshop CS3 application file icon and press Command + I (+ I) to open File Info.
3. On the File Info window (as shown on the right), check the box next to "Open using Rosetta", then close the window.
That’s all there is to it. Photoshop and Nik Software filters will work without a problem.

Will Lion work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?

Will Lion OS work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?
Any help would be much appreciated,

Well, Sylenth I know... works under Logic Pro 9 and it should be found by left clicking and holding... the Software Insturment Button (The one just below where it says i/o and then scrolling down in the menu that appears to the Instrument section below the Apple Plugins...
I don't know about Massive 1.01 because i think that one is not Logic 9 compatible because it is so old.... and I have never used Vanguard... but according to it's specs the latest version should be found in the same place as Sylenth...
Both Sylenth and Vanguard are 32bit plugins...
...and.. it probably doesn't help that you are using older/not 'legal' copies of these plugins.... *ahem*

CS4 and 3rd party plugins - icons disappear

I'm having problems with CS4 on Vista 64bit with 3rd party plugins. I'm aware that 64bit issues exist but even on the 32bit CS4 Photoshop's toolbar icons disappear once Nik, OnOne etc are installed. I've left CS2 installed as well on the same system and this works fine.
This could be a problem with for the 3rd party developers of course but obviously CS4 has changed something.
I have Vista 64bit with 8gb RAM. Disabling the GPU functions doesn't help nor does running CS4 in XP compatibility mode. Removing the plug ins is the only way to resolve the problem.
Just wondering if anyone else has hit this problem and even better found a solution to it.

I think I can recall the behavior being confirmed for Nik and they are working on a fix/ update. The situation may be the same for other tools/ vendors, so you'll probably have to live with it for a moment or resort to using older versions of PS...

FInal Cut X and 3rd Party Plugins from Previous Versions

will they be compatible?
i've got plenty of 3rd party plugins i've normally used with fcp 6.
will i be able to use them with fcp x ? or is it a completely new platform?
cheers.

I've said it elsewhere, but using FCX is like being asked to carve a roast and being handed knife purposely dulled to keep me from hurting myself.
However, while it is not a viable tool for the broadcast professional, I am sure there are many professionals who can use it to do their job.
To the OP, FCP 6 plugins, will work in FCP 7.

As for plugins, FCP X uses a whole new underlying framework, totally, radically different technologies under the hood than legacy FCP 7 versions. So those plugin developers will have to port their wares over to the new platform.
...snip...
This is in fact, largely untrue. FCX effects are Motion wrappers, often interfaces directly to FxPlug plugins that have been around since Motion started. The FxPlug plugins developed for earlier versions of the software need to be rebuilt with the new frameworks and Motion wrappers constructed, but FxPlug 2 is not radically different technology from FxPlug 1.2.5.

Photoshop CC 2014 and 3rd party plugins

When I installed Photoshop CC2014 my 3rd party plugins didn't port over. Do I have to reinstall them?

Moving this discussion to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.
Petermclennan considering Photoshop CC 2014 is a new version of Photoshop you will need to reinstall your third-party plug ins.

10.5 and 3rd party plugins LP8

If i install Leo 10.5, will i have to reinstall all my 3rd party plugs?
sorry if this is a lame subject but i just don't know who to ask.
Sie

my recommendation is that you should do a clean install of 10.5 and yes you will need to install 3rd party plugs, however, others have done upgrades without issues but your mileage may vary.
I found doing a clean install with full reinstall, while time consuming, gave me a system that runs like a charm.

AWESOME: Compressor 2 and 3rd Party Plugins

Hi all
I must admit there was an unexpected amount of positive interest to my detailed post last week on using Compressor and Final Cut Pro in tandem to encode different media types.
As a result, I would like to share the results of some of the research we have been conducting over the last week with the community. This has been research with respect to Final Cut Pro 5, and its integrated Compressor 2 workflows.
Let me recap the reason for the research.
In my opinion, one of the most powerful things about QuickTime is that it is not a media format, but rather a media architecture. It has had extensibility considered as a pivotal feature, from a very early point in development.
QuickTime allows addition of different formats via way of modules. Third party developers can literally produce a module to allow QuickTime to export media of any kind of format, no matter how foreign or how proprietary.
Some of the more popular additional formats and plug-ins available today:
Real Media - use the free Real Media export plug-in - check out:
 -- http://www.realnetworks.com/products/realexport/
Windows Media Option #1 - Popwire's - check out:
 -- http://www.popwire.com/productinfo.php?productsid=7
Windows Media #2 - Flip4Mac - check out:
 -- http://flip4mac.com/
After download and installation, these plug-ins allow us to export from any QuickTime enabled application: including Final Cut Pro.
But the strange thing, for me at least, was that we could export using QuickTime conversion in Final Cut Pro, but not via Compressor. Compressor v1 did not support QuickTime Export Component Plug-Ins.
Many people, myself included, were bothered by the additional workflow required to output to third party QuickTime Export Component Plug-Ins. It meant that Compressor couldn't be trusted to do everything And, for me, it meant the unenviable task of having to re-install the bane of my life: Discreet Cleaner 6
I had so wished I could bid the old crusty girl good-bye
Without access to QuickTime Export Component Plug-Ins in Compressor 2, an even bigger issue arises, as Compressor 2 now has distributed processing! And as such there are definite differences in performance when making the choice to encode to another format from Final Cut Pro:
File > Export > Export via QuickTime Conversion -- same as usual
File > Export > Export via Compressor -- now supports distributed processing
So, on opening up the Compressor 2 documentation, I see with great joy:
Installing QuickTime Export Component Plug-Ins
The export component feature in Compressor was developed to make it possible to add additional export plug-ins in the future. You would simply install the third-party software and then choose the corresponding output file format from the Encoder Type pop-up menu in the QuickTime Export Components Encoder pane of the Inspector window.
That said, I immediately got into touch with the following, and sought their advice as to whether their plug-ins would be supported in Compressor 2:
Real Media
At the moment neither QuickTime 7 nor Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger is supported by the free Real Media export plug-in, but they are working on it and expect to release an update soon.
Popwire
Whilst they are currently working on an update to enable QuickTime 7 / Mac OS X 10.4 support, I did get the following prompt and courteous reply from Albert Bruhner at Popwire:
We don't have any official support for that [ie. integration with Compressor 2] today. You are welcome to download and try though. The WMV-9 Component is available as demo which you are welcome to try.
We will start testing this though. But we do have our Compression Master which wouldn't sell if we did plug-ins that did all that with other programs. So we don't have any priority to do that.
[Continued]

[Continued from post above]
Fair enough, and thank you Albert for the prompt post!
Flip4mac
A much more positive and promising, and equally prompt response here from Joyce Garrett:
Yes, we're happy to be able to tell you that Compressor 2 supports the Flip4mac product family. You might want to download the Trial version of the Flip4mac WMV Studio/Studio Pro to test it.
The Trial version will allow you to play back one-half the duration of the source file and export a 30 second WMV file. Once installed, you will be able to export WMV files from Compressor 2 to test the functionality.
I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results!
I am sure I will be too, Joyce! Thank you.
So there you have it:
WMV-9 can definitely be exported via Compressor and Flip4mac's plug-in
WMV-9 might be exported via Compressor and Popwire's plug-in
Real may one day be exported via Compressor and Real's plug-in
I am going to be conducting exhaustive testing on these over the next week, and if there is interest, I will report the results in terms of quality and performance.
For me, it is very exciting, as we will be able to produce presets and job templates with groups of each of these, and apply them to sequences we encode.
Imagine a one step encoding job for a HD sequence that does the following:
Encodes to a self contained SD DV movie in NTSC and PAL
Encodes 3 versions in QuickTime/H.264 (High, Med, Low bandwidth)
Encodes 3 versions to Real (High, Med, Low bandwidth)
Encodes 3 versions to WMV (High, Med, Low bandwidth)
Encodes MPEG-2 and AC-3 for SD DVD
Encodes HD H.264 and AC-3 for HD DVD
Encodes a mastering/archival self-contained version for in native HD
Just send the sequence to compressor, apply a job template, and begin rendering. And vest of all, Compressor now has the smarts to farm out that work to all the spare Macs in the studio
And no more Cleaner! More time for lunch!
Man I love it I think it is by far the most significant update to all the apps in FCP Studio
I hope everyone gets to benefit from these excellent changes.
In the meantime, i will commence testing, and will keep you all informed!
Regards
Peter

MIDI note delay / stagger using Caps Lock keyboard and 3rd party plugins

Whenever I am using any of the following plugins:
Waldorf PPG Wave, Waldorf D-Pole or Audio Damage Reverence,
with the respective plugin windows open, I can hit several notes on the Caps Lock keyboard simultaneously and some of them will trigger after the rest.
Interestingly, Reverence and D-Pole are effects, and so placing them on any audio instrument, including those that came with Logic, causes them to behave as PPG Wave always does when its plugin window is open.
The delay time seems to be variable.
When the plugin windows are closed, there is no delay.
As well, triggering many notes at once or notes in quick succession seems to cause things to stagger up more.
Sometimes the MIDI notes get stuck and continue playing until they are pushed again.
This seems strange to me, as CPU usage on the plugins is extremely low (the CPU meter does not even register a single mark).
The problem does NOT occur if I draw out a MIDI sequence that does precisely the sort of things that cause the holdups when I am using the Caps Lock keyboard.
Is the Caps Lock keyboard just not very good at certain things?
Why would this problem occur only with these specific plugins?
None of Logic's included plugins have this problem (unless of course I stick Reverence or D-Pole on them as an insert and open the Reverence window).
Naturally this is an inconvenience that can be worked around, but it is annoying.
Thanks for your time.

Hey Rob,
I opened up the Activity Monitor, and CPU usage in Logic Express is 35-40% with the plugin window open and between 16-20% with it closed.
That doesn't seem to be it, but your suggestion that the Caps Lock keyboard is probably just not good at handling many notes at once is definitely correct.
I plugged in a MIDI keyboard and the CPU usage is the same, but there is no staggering problem.
Perhaps there is something off with the CPU meter in Logic Express 7, though.
The Audio side registers activity, but the CPU side says nothing, when clearly the Activity Monitor has it right.
Anyway, thank you for answering my question--it is sort of an annoying little problem, but I just won't play fast with Caps Lock, I suppose.

Lost AUplugins and 3rd Party Plugins

I recently switched my logic pro 9 to open in 64-bit and while scaning my audio units and plugins,it froze so i restarted my comp and switched it back to 32 and it started scanning them again and the same thing happend,so i restarted again and opened it up again.this time it opened up my project but i couldnt find my auplugins,not in the channel strip or nothing.i looked in library/audio/plugins/components and there were there but logic and garageband arent reading them.help plz

In another thread the suggestion to run Logic 9.0 was made, and in yet another thread the suggestion was to run Logic in 32bit mode first (that it would find the missing/upgraded AU) I tried running the Applications->Logic 9.0 and ype it found the upgraded "Play" plugin (2.1.2, which by the way in /library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/Play.component says it is 2.1.02 instead). I Quit Logic Pro 9.0 and tried to run Logic 9.1.3 in 64 bit mode, and the error "Something is using Logic. Ask it to let go" (OK that is lame but I didn't make a note of the exact msg sorry) It turned out that Force Quit on FInder/restart allowed Logic to run. Now if Play was only 64 bit so I didn't need the 32 bit AU bridge... which continuously crashes....

3rd party plugins not working after archive and install

hi,
i have a few 3rd party plugins in my logic pro, such as all the native instruments, waves diamond, ik multimedia plugins, atmosphere and a few more,
i was getting an error on my g5 when i tried to run diskwarrior from the disk. it was the kernal panic message, it said i had to restart my mac, therefore i couldnt run diskwarrior from disk.
i did a bit of research and a few people suggested doing a archive install, so i did.
well what do you know, i had to re-install logic 8 again. other programmes such as transcribe, itunes idvd imovie etc were ok.
but logic didnt load up, o i had to re-install logic again,
also before i did that i checked to see if my 3rd party plugin were working in standalone, so i check all the native instruments and they seemed to work ok, T-racks deluxe works fine, so i thought they should all load up in logic.
once logic was installed again and had to get all the updates all my 3rd party plugins did not show up on my AU validation.
is there a way to get logic to see my 3rd party plugins or do i have to re-install all of them again.
cheers for the help
lib

Then check if the NI AU components are actually where they should be:
HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
If not copy them over from your "previous systems" folder which was created on your HD during the archive and install process.

How do you install and delete 3rd party plugins from Logic 9?

I have been trying to install RX2 from iZotope with no success. I can authorize it in the standalone version but not in logic. I had a previous demo version of it installed and everytime I went to authorize it would point to the earlier version and not authorize and run in demo. I removed a number of files pertaining to it from HD & User/ Library/ Preferences and Audio/ Components and tried reinstalling. Now it doesn't even show up in the plugin list. Can anyone tell me how to clear this up? Also, how to deal with 3rd party plugins. What can I say, no problems with Reaper! Appreciate any help with this. Thanks

The Isotope website isn't very clear about it.. It seems to indicate the Windows version is 32 and 64 bit where as the AU version is 32bit and will work/is compatible with Logic 64bit.. which it will as it will run under the 32 to 64bit bridge... when Logic is run in 64bit mode..but as i said, it's hard to tell one way or the other.
The thing is, if you simply reinstall it.. and then run Logic first in 32bit mode and then in 64bit mode.. it should show up.
Where are you looking for it in Logic?
Does it show up in the AU Plugin Manager? (after, that is you have reinstalled it)

Cineform and other 3rd party plugins for Creative Cloud, what happened to them?

Hi I don't want to panic but I just downloaded Adobe Premiere CC and it's telling me that I've rendered my previous project with a 3rd party plugin that isn't available. What is the process of installing my 3rd party plugins to premiere so I can edit with Blackmagic codecs, Cineform, and multiple others I have enjoyed using in CS6.

I followed the instructions from the Cineform site as given by scarolan_CS4 (thanks for that).
http://support.cineform.com/entries/24336007-A-Do-It-Yourself-Guide-to -adding-CineForm-support-in-Adobe-CC-Windows-
Works like a charm.
The only issues I have are:
Cineform plugs (except for levels) don't work. But they didn't work on CS5.5 and CS6 either - plus cá change.
I'm getting the 'saving metadata' when closing PP error back - I'd forgotten how I'd dealt with that, switched something off in prefs, if I remember (more internet searching!) This wasn't happening before I copied the Cineform directories to their CC locations, so I suspect it's related in some way.
The editing presets and the rendering presets all work fine.
======================================
I've also had good luck with other 3rd party plugins. I created a junction type link from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\CS6\MediaCore to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\7.0\MediaCore. The default mediacore directory is empty so this works, but I copied across 3rd party directories and files in the individual plugin folders for PP and AE as there are default Adobe files in there which may be different from CS6 to CC.
Note that I also created a junction from Photoshop 64 plugins for CS6 to CC and this also works a treat.
Just thought I'd mention it to show that it can work, I'm chuffed that it does as I was anticipating a system OS install to enable plugins to work and to keep 15-20% of my system SSD free.
If this junction stuff is too complicated (and you don't mind having two sets of the same files or deleting the older versions) just copy the plugin and relevant settings files instead. I assume this will work, although I haven't specifically tested it myself.
You can find free utilities to create junction links for Windows or this can be done via the command line. I forget the name of the utility I use, it works via the context menu. I have found that junction tends to work better than symbolic linking or other types of file 'aliasing' for most of my fumbling about with this solution.
This stuff sounds more complicated than it is, once someone has given the steps to take and you have installed the junction/symbolic linking utility it's just a matter of following the steps.
EDIT - I (re-)found the solution to the
Metadata. Metadata writing in progress (n files pending)
error -
Go to Edit>Preferences>Media and uncheck Write XMP ID to Files on Import (thanks to Jim Simon on this forum for this).
