Adobe after effects error: Cant overwrite adobe after effects 9.0 prefs file!

Its when ever i go to edit/Prefrences/ And change a setting and press ok it comes up.

Delete the preferences file and then restart After Effects.
The preferences directory for After Effects CS4 is here on Windows:
C:\Users\[user_name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\9.0
Also, bumping a thread after only half an hour on a Sunday is showing unrealistic impatience. You can't expect people to help immediately, especially on a Sunday.

  • After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "Looks" URGENT!

    My name is Tyler and i'm a Mult-Media Editor in training. Just recently meaning just this project i've been getting this error "After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in “Looks”." every time i try to render. If i try to remove the clip where it messes up and replace it with another it will just mess up in another spot.

    I've never had this problem before and hope that someone has a solution to this problem... if so please post an answer. I don't know if its because i put the plug in on all of my clips and then made an adjustment layer with another Magic Bullet Looks or if it's my clips fault but i just dont know what to do.
    -Tyler

    It sounds like Looks is only crashing on this project. If that is so then it's most likely a problem with one of your video clips. Either there's a corrupted frame or some other codec glitch that's throwing the errors. I'd suggest replacing footage items with temporary footage. You could even use solids. Replace one at a time, then undo, until you find the footage that's causing the crash. Then either re-compress that footage to another codec or replace it.
    If Looks is crashing on every type of footage then you need to pursue other options that are more system related.

  • After effects error: crash occured while invoking effect plug-in

    Hey, im using after effects cs6 and everytime i try to change something to my shatter effect (or other effects, mostly shatter) i get the error: after effects error: crash occured while invoking effect plug-in. Please help

    Well I only have version CS3, however I got the same error while trying to open Knoll Light Factory plug-in.  I tried several times and it never worked.  I searched and found a couple of 'fixes' but they didn't work (for me).
    What did fix my problem, I looked inside the After Effects directory, specifically at C:\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS3\Support Files\(PCI)\Setup\...  - inside this directory is the file 'Setup.exe'.  This setup file is the Adobe After Effects Third Party Content Installer.   I ran this setup file, after it finished doing it's thing, and without rebooting, I opened AE, loaded a project and went to Effects and the KLF plug-in.   I chose it and it opened perfectly without any glitches or errors.  I'm not saying it will work for everyone but it did for me. Not sure if there is any difference in versions as well, like I said, I'm using CS3.  I have since rebooted a couple of times and no problems with AE or the plug-ins (fingers-crossed). 

  • After effects error: exception occurred while processing effect "Pixelate". ( 25 ::0 )

    I'm using Adobe After Effect CS5.5 and I'm having a problem with the following errow message:
    PROBLEM / ERROR MESSAGE
    After effects error: exception occurred while processing effect "Pixelate". ( 25 ::0 )
    SCENARIO
    It happens when I apply pixelate to text and have the text move onscreen from offscreen...
    To clarify, let's say I apply the "pixelate" effect to text and move it off screen. Then, I place a keyframe and move 10 frames down. Next, I place another keyframe (ten frames past the 1st keyframe), and I move the text to the center of the screen. When I play the comp, the error appears as soon as the text is first visible in the preview window (onscreen).
    I've already tried the following websites, but none of there solutions work:
    http://myleniumerrors.com/2011/03/17/25-0/
    http://www.techyv.com/questions/error-when-reusing-compositions-adobe-after-effects
    Any thoughts?

    I actually got it somewhat working...
    Here's my System Specs:
    Mac Pro
    Processor 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory 12 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
    Graphics ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB
    @Mylenium
    I tried turning off Adaptive Resolution and/or turning of OpenGL. Nothing changed.
    However, when I opened a new comp with only the text layer in question and tried messing with the keyframes, I found out something. If I move the keyframes closer (thus making the animation faster), the error didn't appear. But when I moved the keyframes farther away, the error appeared.
    Ideally, I want the keyframes to move at it's original speed (not faster or slower).
    Any thoughts?

  • After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "particular"

    Hi, I was trying to following the Kramer's tutorial "The Ring" in AFx (http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/the_ring/), that involves the use of Trapcode Particular, and all went well..
    Then I've customized it, not drawing a circle, but a square, and after a while AFx started to crash very frequently reporting this message:
    After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effects plug in "particular"
    this happens only when I work on the compositions with particular plug-in.
    I'm working on my "old" iMac OSX version 10.4.11
    2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 duo
    1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    with CS3, open GL disabled (because not supported)
    thanks for any help!

    I'm guessing that you're running out of RAM.
    The system requirements state 2GB as a minimum (I know the page links to CS4, but it seems the CS3 one's aren't available).
    Have you made sure to run all necessary updates?
    I know you've been able to work with 1GB for awhile, but you've probably been pushing that envelope.
    What are your comp specs (frame size, frame rate, etc...)?
    Are you trying to view at full res, or lower?
    Have you modified your RAM preferences?

  • After Effects error:crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in"scripting"

       I made up a bat file with 8 commands like"  afterfx -m -r ...." .
       It will startup 8 AEs and render my work. But when I double the commands with starting 16 AEs,7-8 of them are carshed,says "crash occurred while invoking   effect plug-in"scripting" .
       And "After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was:<2312><ASL.ResourceUtils.GetLanguageIDFromRegistry><0>Unable to obtain the User 'Language' registry key at: Software\Adobe\After Effects\10.0\Defaulting to 'en_US'."
       I am confused for a few days. Need help here.
    Warm regards 

    Good question, but I would suspect that the previous instances simply never correctly unload and/or parts of the auxiliary services like dynamiclinkmanager or qt32server remain active/ loaded, ultimately causing a conflicht or simpyl chewing up all your memory...

  • After effects error cant fetch cmaps

    I am using After Effects from CS4 premium in Windows 7
    I am having this problem after installing Cinema 4D
    "Can't fetch Cmaps" and "Unknown BIB error, can't fetch cmaps"
    this only happens in "Standard User", if i change previleges to administrator , AE works fine.
    Before instalation os Cinema 4D it worked fine and now i cannot open AE has "standard user" .
    Does any one have a hint about this issue?

    83 :: xx errors usually refer to some issue with fonts, but it would seem odd that this should be related to just installing Cinema 4D. still, I'd definitely check the permissions on your Windows font directory. I'd also check the graphics settings and whether you assigend a specific graphics card profile that may not be compatible with AE. BIB error actualyl means that something cannot be drawn, but the resource is actually available. This may point to some buffer settings being wrong, an unusal screen resolution or the program simply not being able to communicate with the graphics driver due to user privileges missing. if all else fails, adjust your group policies to allow all users to modify and load system drivers.

  • After effects error on loadup, and after loading

    Hello,
    I'm receiving two separate errors when trying to use Adobe CS6 through CC. I am currently on a system running Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    When loading up AE initially I am propted with an error during Cleaning Up Scripting.
    After I click OK, the program loads up but if I enter the preferences menu and try to close out of it I am given the following error.
    Any thoughts on how to fix these? I've tried fixing permissions, complete reinstalls, with all updates, launching in root mode and nothing is working. Same error everytime.

    I recognize that first error message as one that I've seen when some application components are installed not on the boot drive.
    So, tell us where you have your application installed. On your boot volume?

  • How to avoid "App requires Adobe Flash." error message when Adobe Flash is already installed??!!

    On my new Lenovo Yoga 3 PC laptop I am trying to install Kayak and Pandora apps but once these apps are downloaded, whenever I try to open them, an error message pops up saying: ADOBE FLASH REQUIRED. The Kayak (or Pandora) app requires Adobe Flash. Installation is free.  "Install" or "Not Now".
    I have installed Adobe Flash 10 times and rebooted etc. but I still cannot use those apps because of this error message.
    This is driving me crazy.
    I have checked to confirm that the newest version of Adobe Flash IS installed and working on my computer.
    What can I do?????
    Thank you.

    Typically when software applications are using an embedded browser window that wants Flash, they're looking for the ActiveX version used in Internet Explorer.  If you've been installing Flash Player for Firefox, that's not going to help.
    Fire up Internet Explorer, go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer and follow the prompts.  This should resolve the issue for you.
    If you're already using Internet Explorer on a Windows 8 or higher machine, then Flash Player is already a built-in component of IE.  The problems you're running into may be specific to the intersection of those websites and Internet Explorer 11.  (IE11 makes a bunch of changes to how the browser is identified, which may ultimately cause the sites to fail to detect Flash.)  In that instance, the easiest workaround is probably to just use Google Chrome - http://www.google.com/chrome/ while we wait for the world to adjust to Internet Explorer's new approach.

  • After effects error invoking auto contrast- help!

After clicking OK, I get another window saying "After Effects error: Crash in progress" as you can see from the attached images. Please can anyone help me open my file again, or at least recover my data from the project!? I've tried everything and anything already! By the way I have no problems with RAM or anything as my other compositions are ok.

    Adobe After effects CS6

    Hello, I know it's been a while but I'll leave my two cents for anyone encountering this problem.
    Adobe knows about this bug, and the solution they provide worked for me: http://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/kb/crash-plugin-shadow-highlight.html
    I know the article is about a bug while using shadow/highlights, but it can happen while working with different plugins, in my case, I was using Warp stabilizer and an adjustment layer above it with auto color, but it happens to different combinations, such as: paint & shadow/highlights, puppet & auto contrast, etc. Apparently, the streamline AE works with prefers footage with effects precomped before applying an adjustment layer to it.

  • Help please! CC Desktop fails to install -- Adobe cleaner has errors...

    Migod, this CC business is more trouble than it is worth. My latest problem is that I cannot update CC Desktop. I followed the steps outlined in another post, to wit: I downloaded and ran the cleaner tool. It completed, but with errors. I tried to rename my x86 OOBE folder, but I am told that it cannot be completed because it is open in another program. I checked task manager and there are no Adobe processes listed at all.
    I am running Win 7 64 on a Dell Precision workstation M4600. Here is the relevant part of the cleaner log. I really would appreciate some help.

    Good news here
    After booting this morning, and reading Jeff's message, I first went back to try to rename the OOBE folders, and it worked. I then ran the cleaner tool, which completed successfully, and was thus able to reinstall the desktop
    So the problem is resolved. This however raises the question of why the permissions were not granted yesterday, with everything shut down in task manager. I throw out one possibility: I accidentally logged in to my CC account with an older Adobe account, which was not connected with CC. I realized my error after trying to update the desktop, but never had a chance to log out and re-log in with my current CC account, because every time I was only given the option of updating or quitting. Could this have been the cause of the problem? I'm no coder, so I don't know, but basically nothing has changed since I had the problem last night and this morning except the reboot (which anyway I probably should have tried yesterday first thing).
    Anyway thanks to Jeff for his reply.

  • Adobe Reader won't open  Tried installing updated Adobe Reader and error came up in the process and told me to contact software manufacturer.  Could I uninstall current Adobe Reader and then try installing the current AR?  Any ideas?

    My Adobe Reader wouldn't download tickets.  Tried opening Adobe Reader application but it would not open.  I saw my Adobe Reader needed to be updated, so I attempted to install new Adobe Reader.  When it came to finalizing, it said there is an error and can't do.  Any ideas?  I have no functioning Adobe reader.  Should I uninstall old Adobe Reader and then try installing the updated AR?

    (Had to step away & do things) I can't even open up the Adobe Reader application to uninstall; get message it won't open. And now have more things needing to be downloaded to print.  Any ideas on how to open the app, so I can uninstall.  I have a MAC OS X 10.9.4  When the installation initially failed I received this message from Adobe, " Adobe Reader Installation Error  Package name Adobe Reader xi (11.0.07)  Installer: installing abase path/installer: The install failed  (The install encountered an error that caused the installation to fail.  Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)  It did not specify what the error was
