Additional file formats?

Can you add additional file formats in SB CS5?
Comparing SB and Audition 3 and Audition has way more [and in sometimes useful] filer formats to import or export. I remembering mp3Pro in CoolEdit. And it's in Audition but not SB. why? Adobe doesn't want to pay for the licensing to whoever owns the rights?
Tried SB out and it doesn't give you much in options [compared to Audition or CE] when saving. Example [again] for the mp3 format, aside from mp3Pro, CBR, VBR, joint stereo, etc.

hey, your answer is working,
when developing plugins for AE (i do!) you start/exit it quite often, it
does makes the difference - if you dont believe me just start AE with a
debugger and see how much time it takes to load all of them. Sure one
plugin does it quite quickly, but that there are hundreds of them!!!
sure, your metaphor is quite cool, but i would instead consider scraping
molluscs from the bottom of the (speed) boat.

No. Just let it finish the install. And it's not downloading anything, it's just restoring the default configuration from the installer backup. Why anyone would want to delete the whole effects folder is beyond me, anyway. This is like screwing out the lightbulbs in a room with no windows to conserve electricity on the chance that someone might actually accidentally turn them on... It's just not smart.

CS4 - Additional File Formats and Effects Installation

We are operating in a networked environment and are experiencing trouble with After Effects 9 (CS4). Frequently AE wants to connect to the Web and download/install additional file formats and effects. The "student user" accounts do not allow this and the process fails. Some AE projects REQUIRE these additional components, so as we encounter this problem we log on as a local administrator and allow the application to update these components.
Is there a way to make these components part of our standard software library, so the next time we re-image a lab everything is in place? These additional components do not seem to be included in the standard Adobe Updater. Or perhaps there are a few directories which just need an adjustment to their NTFS permissions?
I haven't seen anything on the Web about this, nor in these forums. Has anyone else encountered this while in a networked enviornment? Solutions?
Thanks...

Lets assume that the correct (English) serial was entered during installation, and that there were no inconsistencies with language options...etc. At what point do those 3rd party codecs and plug-ins get installed? After first launching the product, or only when an AE project requires additional components?
I just did a fresh install on a new machine and never saw any dialogue box or alert about AE downloading and installing anything "extra". We don't set up any of our systems for multi-lingual use, and I'm quite certain another language was not specified during the install. I'll double check, but it would be useful to know what the trigger is for checking for these additional components, and if I can force it to happen on the machine I'm setting up as my master.
Thanks...

After Effects was unable to install additional file formats and effects

... Please reinstall from the original installer with a serial number."
The title and first line of this post are the error I receive when I open After Effects CS3. All of the CC effects are missing, as well as content for Encore, which is also part of Master Collection (the suite I have), so it must be an Master Collection error. Does anyone know where I can get the addtional content and the installer?

The cached files would be in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers in one of the directories with the funny cryptic numbers as their name. Since the archives are protected by the install key, you will have no way to extract the files manually, though. I tend to think that it is indeed the MC trial that is giving you troubles. Did you run the CS4 Clean Script when you uninstalled it? If not, that might explain it, even more so when the trial timed out. Certain features will then be locked forever after, unfortunately. Only uninstalling, running the clean script and then reinstalling with the serial will give you the full features then. Also download the manual update packages for After Effects, Premiere Pro, Encore and Adobe Media Encoder from the Download section. Installing those may also fix that problem since it should make the apps install additional MPEG support. As another option, you might try to create a new user account with administrator rights and launch AE. Sometimes this also works, since it creates a new user branch in your registry and just ignores existing info for some stuff which may make the post-install install kick in and finish its work.

Additional File Formats and Plugins popup

I have deleted the effects folder in Plug-ins directory, and now, every time i start After Effects annoying message box pops up, saying it has attempted to install these plugins and failed (because i've canceled it )
Is there a way to get rid of the message (without AE attempting to download additional stuff)
Many thanks in advance

*.ico file format not support in ImageView ?

ico file can not display in ImageView ?
Image img = new Image(iconView.class.getResourceAsStream("test.ico"));
ImageView imgview = new ImageView();
rootLayout.getChildren().add(imgview);Edited by: noregister on Oct 23, 2011 11:28 AM

Back in August someone made an ImageView version that could support SVG (through Batik), see I would like to share my small SVG-ImageView solution for link to the code.
I guess you could use the same trick to add support for ico files, using existing Java libs that can read that format.
Indeed neither ImageView nor Image has a clear documentation on what's involved underneath or on how to expand the range of supported formats without writing your own custom Image sub-class.
Does it work through ImageIO as other AWT/Swing image operations? If so it would means that the Java Advanced Imaging I/O codec are supported (for additional file formats support) straight out of the box.
Creating their own ImageClass may help people get support Java Advanced Imaging's TileImage as well.
Maybe there are a couple of RFE that can be made on the JIRA about that.

Extracting additional files, where? (CS3)

I am running AECS3 at work. We had to put in a new hard drive, which meant wiping out AE and installing it on the new HDD. However, I kept getting an error message that there were additional files that need to be installed, and all of my CC effects are gone. So, I had my IT guy download the file with all of the effects (837MB). However, I don't know where to extract the files. I tried both Support Files>Presets and Support Files>Plug-ins, but neither works. I looked on the Adobe site and couldn't find any info that would help. Could someone please tell me where to extract them to?
Thanks in advance

I'm running Windows XP. The software was correctly installed as an administrator (since this is a large corporation, the IT security requires that), however not all of the effects were installed due to some nonsensical decision on Adobe's part to make some of the effects a separate install then not provide adequate documentation.
The exact error message I receive is "Additional File Formats and Effects Installation: After Effects was unable to install additional file formats and effects. Please reinstall from the original installer with a serial number."
Note that it doesn't matter if we uninstall then reinstall or try another install over the top of the existing install. That's because the missing effects are NOT included with the original installer. This includes ALL of the CC effects as well as Keylight and probably some others. There is also content missing from Encore. This happened previously when we had to reformat the old drive about 6 months ago. However my IT guy doesn't remember where or how he installed the additional effects because he supports about 1000 people every day so remembering something like this after that period of time is next to impossible.
I extracted the files to my desktop and here's the file structure (I'm not sure if it'll help, but maybe it's worth a shot) Desktop\Adobe CS3\After Effects\Adobe CS3\payloads\AdobeAfterEffects8All\AdobeAfterEffects8All1.cab and the .cab folder contains a whole bunch of files. If I hit Select All and right click on them I get an extract option. But where would I extract them to? There are so many that I really don't want to have go back in and try to figure out which ones to remove if I put them in the wrong place.
Adobe documentation regarding this is either nonexistent or buried somewhere

ICO file format missing

ICO file format (ICOFormat64.8bi) used to work in Photoshop CC 2014 (last week), but today, it stopped being an option. It's still in the folder, so what's happening and how can I fix it?

HT204382 a .flv document could not be opened. The movies file format isn't recognised. Is there additional software available that will enable quicktime to open the movie

I wanted to view a document with a .flv extention (0.1. Launchpad.flv) on my mac book pro. The following message came up
The document "o.1. Launchpad.flv " could not be opened.
The movie's file format could not be recognised
Is there some additional software is available that will enable quicktime to open the movie?

I'd get VLC & try that, although Perian may still work to play within quicktime, but it's no longer being developed.

Want to open Kodak Photo CD files (.PCD) in Photoshop CS5. In CS4 i copied file "Photo CD.8BI" from an older version into the File Format folder. This does not work with CS5. Any fix?

I have several old Kodak Photo CD with PCD image files. I am now using Photoshop CS5. Some years ago while using Photoshop CS4 I copied a file: "Photo CD.8BI" from an older, CS2, version to the Plug-ins/File Format folder of CS4. This does not appear to work with CS5. Any fix?

It can be made to work, but you have to run the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5, and as I recall there's an additional DLL called pcdlib32.dll that's needed from the old installation.

Time Machine: External Hard Drive with Additional Files + Back-up

Hi-
I am hoping someone can clarify something for me. I use a 500GB external drive (WD-My Book) to back-up my macbook periodically (2x month). I also use this same external drive to store additional files from an old computer.
I just spoke with some folks at Apple and they confused me and made me think that I might have inadvertently deleted some of the original non-back-up files. However, I have scoured the drive and everything seems to be there IN Addition to the backups.backupdb folder.
Can someone reassure me that I have not somehow corrupted/lost either the original files or the back-up files?
I have read the tutorials posted in 2009 - and realize that I should have partitioned the drive, but I didn't. Moving forward I will purchase a dedicated drive just for back-ups - but want to be able to sleep tonight and not worry . . .
Thanks!

Wow-Thanks again.
Apple Support was marginally helpful. After the rep told me I probably lost data, my anxiety rose . . .
My original Time Machine question to Apple Support =
My MacBook cannot handle all the media I have. So, I bought a Seagate 1TB to hold movies, photos, and music. If I have the 1TB Seagate plugged in to my MacBook at my designated back-up time, will Time Machine back both the HD and Seagate 1TB to a new (yet-to-be-purchased) 2TB External drive (which will be purchased solely for Time Machine files)?
Yes, as long as both are formatted for a Mac (see #1 in Formatting, Partitioning, Verifying, and Repairing Disks).
The Seagate might have been automatically excluded from backups; if so, it's easily removed, via Time Machine Preferences > Options. If it's listed in the exclusion box +*in black,+* (while it's connected) just select it and click the minus sign at the bottom. If it's listed in gray, it's not formatted properly -- Time Machine can't back it up, and you can't remove it from the exclusion list.
I'm having a difficult time knowing if I'm utilizing Time Machine properly. Since I have a MacBook it doesn't make sense for me to have Time Machine continuously running in the background. So, I only back-up 2 or 3 times a month. And, each time - I seem to get nervous that I'm not doing something correctly.
Time Machine was designed to back up hourly. On a desktop Mac, it's best to let it do just that.
On a laptop, of course, that's rarely practical. But you probably should back up more often -- when your internal HD fails (they all do, sooner or later), or something else awful happens to your Mac, you risk losing everything you've done since the last backup. Think of your Address book, browser bookmarks & history, documents, and especially your media files.
You might want to consider backing-up over your network. It doesn't sound like you also have a desktop Mac, but if you do, you can back up to a "shared" drive on it.
It's a lot more money, but Apple designed the Time Capsule as a combination wireless router and hard drive specifically for Time Machine backups. Most folks do the initial backup while connected via an Ethernet cable, but subsequently Time Machine can do those hourly backups wirelessly, as long as your Mac is awake and in range of the Time Capsule. See http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC344LL/A/Time-Capsule-2TB?fnode=MTY1NDA0Mg&mc o=MTMzNzU2MjI
But as long as you're diligent about doing your backups regularly via an external drive, a TC may not be worth the big bucks, especially if you already have a wireless router.

Save As dialog issues: won't choose file format

The file formats seem to be all jumbled in the Save As dialog box. If I choose TIFF, I get EPS files. If I choose JPEG, I get .CFM files, etc.

You're on MacOS, and you either copied plugins from a previous version of Photoshop, or set the additional plugins preference to point to a previous version of Photoshop.
Go remove the plugins you copied, or turn off that preference.
You should not try to use all the plugins from a previous version of Photoshop.
Now, the bug comes about because the menu in the save dialog doesn't like to show duplicate items (which would happen because you have duplicate plugins), and we're working on that problem.
But you need to go fix the duplicate plugins first.

HELP! Unexpected File Format Error

I was recently working on a project in Flash CS5.5 for school, last thing i did was save the project and close the program. Next time I try to open it I get an error saying "Unexpected File Format", and the application closes itself out. I can open Flash by itself and work on anything else, but when I try to open my class project it repeats the same thing "Unexpected File Format" and closes. The file was originally started IN Flash CS5.5, and has not moved to any other program since then. I dont understand what happened. I really need this project working again, can anyone help?

It's just happened again!!
This is really killing my deadline. Same file, this time I had just deleted to fonts from the library, then clicked save to get the alert to kill flash.
This time I got the additional info from the "Adobe Flash CS5.5 has stopped working" alert box:

CG36 - Import report - No file format in the key file?

Hi all,
Transaction CG36: .Key files are successfully checked by u2018Check directoryu2019 in transaction CG36. The second step is the import process. The Import shows u2018greenu2019 successfully. But the Job description shows the following message:
No file format in the key file test.key
Number of errors: 0
Job Finished:
More details:
No file format in the key file test.key
Message no.C114
Diagnosis:
No entry for the document file type was found in the key file test.key
System response:
The report for the key file test.key is not imported.
Procedure:
Ensure that a document category is entered in the key file test.key
TEST.KEY - Key file structure:
CPN=TEST
DTY=SDB
SID=000000000492
PRN=TEST PROD
CTY=GB
LAC=E
STA=V
DAT=19.03.1996
FNA=1.PDF
FTT=PDF
During the report import (CG36, Dok-X), the workstation application is defined using the FFT entry in the key file, as displayed above, the key file as FTT=PDF defined correctly.
We have processed the customizing settings which are required and described under: Report Import: Check Additional Settings (under EH&S u2013 Product Safety > Interfaces > Import and Export > Basis Settings for Import and Export).
Is anybody familiar with the issue: No file format in the key file?
What do I do wrong? Is the above Key file structure incorrect?
Is configuration in SAP DMS required?
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,
Roy Derks

Hello Roy
my assumption would be: there is a typing error in the key file. If the content of the key files is like what you have published you must use in the key file
FFT=PDF
and not
FTT=PDF.
No further information is necessary and the other data seems to be perfect.
With best regards
C.B.
PS: if necessary my be you could check DMS customizing. By standard EH&S implemenation a document type "IBD" should be there whiich is used for e.g. pdf file.
PPS: I have no idea why the reimport check does not show up this issue.

Adobe X Pro - requires additional files to be installed by system administrator...

Error message:
Additional files will need to be installed to create PDF from this file. You must have Administrator privileges to install these files. Please contact your local system administrator.
1) just an 'ole lady here - on a pc - not a system administrator (though I think have admin rights in windows 7).
The details:
a) had a lenovo small format pc running XP - Acrobat X Pro worked fine on this pc, could create pdfs and fillable forms etc.
b) Just bought a used pc with Windows 7 Enterprise - after a week of issues - duh - I realized X Pro was not working on the new(used) pc, except to let me open a pdf, and even add a text box, or sign or line out a change in a pdf. - that is all it will let me do..
c) I had a purchased CD of Adobe Pro Standard. In 2012, I was able to upgrade it to Adobe X Pro 10, while still on XP, with a digital download, for which I have the registration key.
The X Pro version showing this morning was 10.1.12 (before I uninstalled it, and I assume after various updates).
I've also tried repairing the installation - and selecting the function I need PDFMaker (to work with MS Word) -
I have uninstalled Adobe, and re-installed it, from my old downloaded file the version is 10.0.0
Finally read that I should have deactivated it on the old pc.
Called Support, and they gave me an all new, full version (download) of Adobe X Pro at 5 pm est, and a NEW S/N.
I uninstalled, the old version, ran ccleaner, restarted the pc, installed the new X Pro 10.0.0, used the new s/n and still cannot use Adobe.
Still can't, create a pdf, combine files from word or create a form from a word doc - nada. Also, do not seem to have Adobe Reader anywhere on this pc, either (a good thing from what I've read).
When I was on XP I did not have this problem. Now that I am on Windows 7 Enterprise, I have the problem.
(I am using MS Office 2003 and do plan to update to 2010. Using Google Apps for Work, small business working from home, did not like Office 365 since I am on a MiFi hotspot for internet (country living))
Maybe all of this was more information than you'd want or need... just was not sure what is is causing the conflict/problem.
Feeling out of my depth with this and really need some guidance / help / specific steps to take - Thanks in advance for your help!
Linda

Hi Linda,
Please try the steps mentioned below:
> Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/ )
> Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-services-windows.html )
> Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.

Actually, it's a breath of fresh air getting all of the info needed to help.
But now the bad news. You're in the forum for Adobe Reader, but you want to post in the Acrobat forum from the sounds of it (many more pro's there for your product).
Here's a link and good luck. Acrobat
