Please help, I'm working on a big project that needs to be upploaded ina few days and I don't wanna lose my work or not be able to edit.

As Mylenium says, we need to know a lot more if we're going to be able to help you. Please provide answers to all of the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
Does this problem occur for all imported footage?

Adobe After Effects CS6 not loading ExporterQuickTimeHost.pr and ImporterQuickTimeHost.pr

Hi,
Adobe After Effects CS6 not loading ExporterQuickTimeHost.pr and ImporterQuickTimeHost.pr.
We have tried disabling the windows firewall and turning off our Antivirus but it makes no difference.
The program launches with the quicktime plug-inns perfectly when ran as local administrator but will not work as any other user.
Other users do not have local admin rights, only write access to their profile path and the C:/temp folder.
Any help and assitance would be appreciated.
Is there a directory that the users need access to on the C drive?
Many Thanks

Hi,

Could someone please advise.

BRAND NEW PHOTOSHOP CS6 NOT SHOWING MY IMAGES

Hi everyone,
I'm in desperate need of some help. I just bought a brand new photoshop cs6 extended for Windows. I have successfully installed the software. It opens fine. As soon as I drag an imagr or open an image in photoshop, it shows up like you would see a transparent background. The only place you can see the image is in the history or layer panel. Has this happened to anyone else before? I hope the software isn't corrupted or faulty.

Refer to this:
I can’t see my images and only get a black screen (or strange pattern).

Import .m2t into Adobe After Effects CS6

Hi all.
I'm trying import .m2t video file into Adobe After Effects CS6 but it says After Effects error: file cannot be imported - this .m2t file is damaged or unsupported
I've got a full version of AEE. I'm sure that this file is not damaged. I have installed ffdshow.
What should I do ?
Thank you for every reply

Without knowing exactly where that file came from, exact system info and other details nobody can say anything. m2t is just a generic file extension for a variety of MPEG-2 based formats and some of them are simply not supported. and forget about ffdshow. AE doesn't care for DirectDraw accelerated CoDecs.

Photos 1.0 not showing all images from Photos Library.photoslibrary folder/file after update install

I installed the update that changed my iPhoto to Photos 1.0, and the new Photos program is not showing all images from Photos Library.photoslibrary file/folder (not sure to call it file or folder since it is actually a folder with all my pics but it acts more like a file) after update install. The Photos Library.photoslibrary file/folder shows to be 55 gb in size, and it shows to be loaded into the photos program, but there are maybe a few weeks of pictures showing instead of a few years. Lots of pictures in the 55 gb are not showing for some reason.

No - iPhotos has not replaced anything - it is new and an addition - iPhoto is still on your system in the applications folder and still works just fine
Outlook is not supported by Photos - not sure if the support must come form Apple or MS as Photos uses a different interface to external packages than iphoto did

Hello I downloaded adobe after effect CS6, but it is not installed and asks to install Adobe Support Advisor. I turn to the site and there wrote: "The Adobe Support Advisor tool was used to analyze installer log and system information associated with installation errors. The tool has been replaced with improved installation support mechanisms. Please visit Adobe Support section for Knowledge base articles around Installation . " What do I do?

yes, I did that with helping message 3, I'd remove Cs6 only, but it did not help. The message "Failed to initialize the setup program. To identify the problem, download the program Adobe Support Advisor" repeat again =(

Adobe After Effects CS6 takes FOREVER to lock existing frames before rendering

My After Effects CS6 locks up for 3 minutes "Locking Existing Frames" before it even begins to start rendering, every time I need to preview anything - even at the lowest possible quality.
The render goes perfectly normal - it is not the rendering that is the problem - it is the "Locking Existing Frames" process BEFORE rendering that freezes up my computer for 3 minutes, and ruining my life.
I am using Adobe After Effects CS6 on a Mac Book Pro with a 2.9 GHz Core i7 processor (2 cores) and 8 GB of RAM.
Please help me understand what is happening when it is "Locking Existing Frames," and what some solutions could be to reduce the amount of time it takes to do this.
ALSO: I have scoured the Web for hours looking for the answer to this problem, and to this point it has never been solved. If you can solve this issue, Adobe should give you a promotion and $1 million.

Hi Rick and Greg,
Thanks for the quick responses. Below are all the details to all your questions. Also - just to emphasize again - my rendering goes super awesomely fast. It is not the rendering. It is the "Locking Existing Frames" process before the rendering that is ruining my life.
FREE MEMORY:
This is brand new Mac Book Pro with hardly anything stored on it.
The 8 GB of RAM is split into 2 memory slots, each with 4GB of RAM
3RD-PARTY CODECS:
I am not aware of any third-party codecs in this system. I imported some fonts (ITC Franklin Gothic) and some video files (see below), but I am not aware of any third-party codec installed on this system.
DISC CACHE:
My Disc Cache is enabled
My maximum disc cache size is 69 GB
I do not have a seperate "fast hard drive" or "SSD" seperate from my main hard drive, where I store my footage.
MPEG SOURCE FILES:
If by source files, you're asking about the video files I imported:
2 MP4s (5 sec. each)
3 QuickTime .mov (3 sec. each)
1 Audio-only FLV. (2 minute background music throughout video; used to be a Premiere working file)
MULTIPROCESSING
Turned off, but still locks up forever before rendering.
ADDITIONAL FUN FACTS:
Here are some additional observations that might help:
It doesn't just take a long time to start rendering; it freezes my entire computer for the duration of the "Locking Existing Frames" process - putting my entire life on hold for 3 minutes, every time I need to preview a minor detail... It's a nightmare.
The video is 1 min. 45 sec. long so far, and has 15 sec. to go.
The video is comprised of 99 percent motion graphics, and 1 percent actual footage (Occupy Wall Street hates my footage)
The complexity in this video is that there are a lot of compositions inside of compositions inside of compositions, but even when I go to the very beginning of the first comp - where the only animation is a line being drawn with the "Stroke" effect - it still takes 3 minutes to "Lock Existing Frames."
Again... The rendering goes super fast after the "Locking Existing Frames" process. The problem is NOT with the rendering. The problem is the "Locking Existing Frames" process BEFORE the rendering starts.
This is my job and I can't do efficiently until I solve this problem, so I will be very responsive until we can identify the issue.
Thanks again for all your helpful responses!

Audio problem in Adobe After Effects CS6

When ever i import a clip into adobe after effects cs6 the program does not read my clips audio i know how to ram preview its just the program doesnt read the audio what so ever but when i preview the clip on my desktop using windows media player it works fine and you can here the audio. My clips are recorded by my HDPVR Haupauge and it records in m2ts file someone please help me this is a serious problem with this program

Hi,
When you installed the full version, DId it install "Over" the existing one, or is it seen as a new installation (Sorry, I have never re-installed AE, so I am not sure of the way it works) - but coming from an IT background, sometimes installing a bought version, will overwrite all user settings that were set up in the trial.
In other words, recheck all the program user properties and audio check boxes to make sure the re-installation did not reset something to "off".
There are a few Audio discussions going around today, check the forum and give them a quick read to get a reminder of where all the possible Adio "on/off" switches are hidden.
Hope that helps

Adobe After Effects CS6: Learn by Video

NOTE: This question is directed to Todd Kopriva.
Hi Todd,
I figured this is a good way to get in contact with you, seeing how you are quite active in this forum.
This is regarding to the Adobe After Effects CS6: Learn by Video that you were a part of with Angie Taylor.
I have encountered a problem opening the .aep files in the "Project_Files" folder, I was prompted with the following error message "After Effects warning: 9 files are missing since you last saved this project."
When I try finding the missing images, it is not found in the folder or disc. Due to this problem, I cannot make full use of the video lessons.
I was wondering if you still have the images to the files in this video, and if so, would you kindly send it my way? I would be very grateful of your help.
Thank you!

Mac CS6 not showing indd files as "readable documents"

A few months ago, we upgraded (finally) from CS3 to CS6. (I'm running Mac OS 10.6.8.)
Unfortunately, when I go FILE -> OPEN then type part of a file name in the SEARCH bar, no InDesign files show up---CS3 or CS6 files. I have to manually switch the dialog box from "All Readable Documents" to "All Documents" then I get all files, including InDesign files.
This used to work fine in CS3 and no other program has this issue. In the OS, all ".indd" files are set to open in CS6. (If I right-click "get info" for an old file and check, it says that it's set to open in CS6.)
If I manually NAVIGATE to a folder using the OPEN dialog box, everything works as expected. InDesign files show up normally and other "unreadable" documents are grayed out and I don't have to enable "All Documents".
Obviously, not a catastrophic error, but certainly inconvenient.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Andrew

Hi, dsprow. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. You wrote: "Spotlight (and Find for that matter) are not showing all Image Files (such as JPEGS) unless a preview has already been created."I've done some testing to see if I can reproduce your report.
I find this is only the case in Find when the Images group of search results is displayed in List mode (icon of parallel lines selected on the right side of the blue Images group title).
In Find, if I select that the Images group be displayed in Icon view (by selecting the icon of four boxes on the right side of the blue images title) then all icons in the Images group of search results are shown with image previews, whether or not the image itself has a preview icon.
Other than this, I cannot reproduce the problem:
• When I use the Spotlight Icon (Command-Space bar) or the Spotlight Window (Command-Option-Space bar) the search results in the Images group always displays an image preview whether or not the image itself has a preview icon.
• Changing the display of the Spotlight Window to Flat List under "Group by" — before or after performing the search— has no effect on this.
• I also checked to see if the Finder > View > Show View Options setting in Icon view for "Show Icon Preview" of the folder containing a search result affects this: it does not appear to.
2. Can you think of anything that differentiates the images that are not working as expected from those that do? Were they created on a PC, for example? Just downloaded from a camera?
3. You wrote: "I've tried everything I can think of."I appreciate that, but perhaps you can provide a list of things you did try so that others can test them, or make suggestions that you've not tried already.
Good luck!

Testing Adobe After Effects cs6

Hey, I've got recently the trial of Adobe After Effects Cs6 and i wanted to know if there's anyway i could copy the same shortcuts i was using in cs5 to place them in cs6 cause there's some minor troubles while i'm working with it.
I've tryed the Shortcut Script Editor found in Adobe but coulnd't get it to work since i din't understand a think.
The biggest problem i have is in here.
Pen Tool (CS6)
<img src="http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/3163/b348e9107e5089d60470690.png" />
Pen Tool (Cs5)
<img src="http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/5480/f4e4f6ef2ad86a65af2738e.png" />
As u can see i cannot cycle anymore through the options to get to the add vertex. i've changed already some shortcuts modifyin the "Adobe After Effects 11.0 Shortcuts" file inside of roaming and it worked fine but i can't find the actual "way" or names.. to make it cycle like in Cs5
IS there any way of doing it, Can i import my old shortcuts? or how do i modify thoese.. And how to make it so when i press "Ctrl" i can move the points like in Cs5..
I find this change in the shortcut the major disavantage in the new AE for me at least..
Thank you,

There was much discussion over how the shortcut for the Pen tool - the G key - should work in CS6. Adobe wanted it to work for switching between the Pen tool and the variable mask feather tool. Knowing that some users might prefer the G key to toggle thru all the Pen tools, they made this a Preference.
Open Preferences > General Preference and toggle OFF the option for "Pen tool shortcut toggles between Pen and Mask Feather tools"
Adobe also fixed a big problem with mask editing. Previously, after you drew a mask with the Pen tool, if you selected a point it deleted it! In CS6, going back to an existing point gives you the Selection tool, so you can move a point easily. So now, you may not need to switch between the other tools just to avoid this problm - you should be able to do everything using just the Pen tool, and use simple shortcuts to switch to other tools. On Mac, when editing a Mask with the Pen tool:
press Command when over a point to get the Delete Vertex tool
press Option when over a point to get the Convert Vertex tool
and just click anywhere along a mask outline to get the Add Vertex tool
By using these shortcuts and using the default Preference (toggle is ON), you can then use G exclusively for switching quickly between the vertex editing and Mask Feather editing.
cheers, Trish
