Adobe CS6 weird R3D issues

Hi,
I have been working on a project with native R3D files for a couple of months. I haven’t it touched the project for a couple weeks; the computer and drive were turned off and disconnected properly. No files were moved, drive letter and paths all still the same.  
However, now when I load the project a few weird things happen:   
It says it loads all media, yet when I play the timelime it indicates half my R3D files are offline.
When I load the project, it does NOT prompt me that I have offline files and to reconnect them.
When I try to reconnect the R3Ds manually premiere gives me “Unsupported of Damaged File” error. The files play back fine in RedCine X.
On Win 7 64bit, never had a problem before
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Jim, but it didn't work for me, the files didn't reconnect nor did Pr prompt me that I had offline files when I opened the project.
I believe the issue stems from the newer REDimporter being incompatible with projects that were created using an older version.

Once I replaced the REDimporter, I still suffered with issues 1 and 2 in my original post, but I was able to manually reconnect without the error.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 weird hangup issues with paintbrush

    Hello All,
    I've been an extremely happy user of Photoshop CS6 x64 on my windows machine since it was released. None of the existing bugs had any effect on me and i was happy as a clam.
    Until about two weeks ago. Some update was released and i downloaded and installed it.
    Now suddenly, when i'm retouching photographs, using masks and the paintbrush to fill, the mouse hangs. Often. Just gets stuck in position and i have to wait for a second or two to get it back.Also happens with the clone stamp. It's like a delay has been added to the controls. No other way to explain it.
    No other hardware of software changes on my machine at all. Just the Photoshop Update. I'm running version 13.0.1 on x64 windows. Have plenty of ram and plenty of CPU.
    Anyone else experiencing this, with the latest update in particular? The paint brush, clone tool and healing brush controls used to be much more responsive.

    Yes that is normal.  I have no problem with CS6, No lag or hesitation.
    A tip for you if your creating the mask using a copy of a color channel. Set the brush blending mode to "Overlay" This will protect the mask Black and White areas. You will only be able yo paint in gray areas of the mask.   When areas turn 0,0,0 Black or 255,255,255 White they become protected too. Use a Wacom tablet soft brush low opacity and many strokes

  • Mac Adobe CS6 Photoshop Window Issue

    In previous versions of Photoshop on Apple, the toolbars are fixed to the outside of the screen and the inside of the app is empty (seeing the windows or desktop below it). Adobe Illustrator CS6 still displays like I just described. However, Photoshop CS6 it is one window that is scalable (like I would expect on a Windows machine).
    I'm attaching two photos. Here's Photoshop CS6:
    And here's is Adobe Illustrator CS6:
    I've looked through all the preferences and options. I've looked around online and haven't seen this question asked, but I apologize if its a duplicate.
    Thanks,

    What you're looking for is to disable the Application Frame setting.  Go to Window - Application Frame in the main menu.

  • OSX Maverick and Adobe CS6 compatibilty

    OSX Maverick and Adobe CS6 compatibilty
    Any issues to note?

    When you upgrade to 10.9 it installs the Java 7 JRE but there is no JRE6, so you HAVE TO download it from Apple before ANY CS5 or CS6 app will open. Other than that I haven't seen ANY issues with CS5.5 or CS6 in Audition, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash, InDesign, Premiere, Photoshop, PSE9 or Lightroom 5.

  • Adobe cs6: extracting files, installer detects issues. Using Photoshop, the program crashes quickly.

    I'm in the process of downloading Adobe cs6, and when I extract the downloaded files, installer detects a machine restart is pending, but even after restarting the computer, and retrying to extract the files the issue persists. So I tried ignoring the problem, (as that is one of the options) and completing the download, but then when I go ahead and use Photoshop, I only get to use it for less than 20 seconds and the program completely shuts down. I have no clue how to fix this problem.
    I've tried unistalling Adobe cs6 and reistalling it multiple times, but no luck.
    I've also downloaded the update published by adobe today (11/26/2012) but i still have this problem.
    I don't know how to solve this issue, doesn anyone have any suggestions as how to fix it?
    i'm using windows 7, and AMD Professional firepro graphics card
    Thanks Stef

    Hi Stef. You’ve posted your question in a forum that is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop.  I'm moving your question to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum for specialized attention to your situation.

  • Adobe CS6 Production Premium Install Issues

    I recently built a new PC and transferred my Adobe CS6 Production Premium and Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium software to the new pc without issue.  I had an issue after installing different software and had to go back to a previous restore point in windows.  After doing this, it appears as though there are several adobe files still on the pc.  The issue is that when try to reinstall, I get an error from adobe installer which says the installer failed to initialize, and for me to download the adobe support advisor to detect the problem.  When I try to downlad this, it says the support advisor has been discontinued.  How can I get these installed?  I cannot even get to the initial install asking for my keys.  I am running windows 8.1 as an OS.
    Thanks!

    I was able to find a previous version of adobe support advisor and ran it, this is what I get.  The path it points me to in the registry does not exist.  hmmm

  • Radeon HD 5770 graphics card works perfectly with my MAC Pro 1,1 and Adobe CS6. However, Photoshop CC won't read the card drivers and says I need to reinstall them and disabled 3D funtions as a result. Anyone else with this issue?

       Radeon HD 5770 graphics card works perfectly with my MAC Pro 1,1 and Adobe CS6. However, I upgraded to Adobe CC and Photoshop CC disabled some filters and 3D functionality. The preference panel for Performance/Graphics Card in Photoshop CC is greyed out and inaccessible and shows this message -
    "Photoshop detected an error in your display driver. Update or reinstall the driver and check Use Graphics Processor to retry."
       I still have Photoshop CS6 installed and it still works perfectly. Anyone else with this issue? Is there a driver update for this compatable with my setup?
    OS 10.7.5
    Mac Pro 1,1
    20gb ram
    ATI Radeon HD 5770 Graphics Card
    30" Apple Cinema HD display

    after going round with this Adobe was able to find the fix....opened the "show content" folder for the application Photoshop CC (control click on the application folder) and navigate to the sniffer file and rename it by putting a tilda ~ in front of the name..." ~sniffer ", close and open PhotoshopCC...and voila, problem solved... Thankyou Adobe support

  • Hanging problem with Adobe CS6 in Mountain Lion

    I recently upgraded my retina Macbook pro to Mountain Lion and was having some trouble with Adobe CS6 apps hanging on startup among other things (including iCal crashing on startup)
    I did a clean install of Mountain Lion and Manually rebuilt my applications folder so that Adobe MAster COllection was installed freshly on a clean install of ML.
    Now it is still sporadically hanging when I try to open Photoshop, Bridge or other Adobe apps. The only thing that seems to fix it is a restart which is inconvenient when you're in the middle of work.
    ANy ideas?

    Thanks for this. I had heard of the fonts problem some people have had. All my fonts were freshly installed by either the system or Adobe when I installed Master Collection. Following your advice, I just verified every font and the only problem that showed up (as you had predicted) was a minor duplication which I corrected. So, it seems unlikely to be the fonts.
    As for your other point, I have been using Final Cut Pro X and that has worked fine. The only other app that has given me trouble has been Calendar which seems to get strangely stuck sometimes while it is updating. Makes me wonder if there's something going on with the network I'm using. 
    One thing I hadn't thought of was that it could be a problem with gfx card switcher. This seems unlikely but I'll try disabling it and see if that helps.
    Weirdly, today when I had this issue, Photoshop loaded up ok but then hung when I tried to load any file into it. Bridge wouldn't start at all. I didn't try the others. Yesterday I was having problems with Illustrator.
    Anyway, I see what you mean about it not being a widespread problem - which is why I started this thread. It seems no one else is having any issues. If anyone else knows what I should look for in my configuration please let me know.

  • Adobe CS6 randomly asks for reactivation (Deployed using AAMEE 3.1)

    Hi All
    We've deployed Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium using AAMEE 3.1 to about 500 workstation across our school campus.  However, we're having a really weird issue where either the licensing screen will randomly pop up asking for reactivation (7 days) or the program requested will just fail to run.  If I try to reactivate using the wizard onscreen it says I don't have a valid internet connection.  This causes a lot of frustration for our users (and me!!)
    The only work around I found to it is to re-serialize using a serialization package made with AAMEE.  I'm considering adding it to a start-up script to re-serialize every PC when they are booted up each day but it it seems ridiculous to need to do this.  I thought AAMEE removed all activation checks and prompts, this doesn't seem to be the case here??
    I've had a look around the forums and while there are similar issues I haven't found a resolution to this, any help/suggestions would be much appreciated!

    Hi,
    you should be able to package product and their updates via AAMEE 3.1. if some package doesnt contain updates, you can also modify the package using AAMEE and add updates to it.
    please share PDApp.log and installer log file generate on client machine. For details of location please refer to page 112-113 in Enterprise deployment guide.
    please send across these logs to email id: [email protected]
    thanks,

  • Premiere CS6 + Yosemite + R3D "An unspecified error occurred while performing a conform action"

    Hi there!
    I seem to have an issue with Premiere Pro CS6 and Yosemite:
    I have a Premiere project made in Premiere 6.0.5 composed entirely of R3D media. While running Mavericks 10.9.5, everything seemed to work just fine. I could play the timeline with or without rendering and I didn't have any error messages to speak of. After doing some research and finding out that CS6 works fine in Yosemite 10.10, I decided to take the plunge and upgrade last night. Today, I opened up the same Premiere project and I got the infamous "An unspecified error occurred while performing a conform action" error message for seemingly every R3D file in the project, and I could not play the timeline without rendering every frame.
    I went back to the install disc and restored Premiere to the original 6.0.0, but that didn't help. So while in Yosemite, I updated Premiere back to 6.0.5 and found myself (unsurprisingly) with the same issue. I have a backup of Mavericks 10.9.5 that I can easily revert to, but I'd like to figure out what's going on! Yosemite is the only variable that changed, but I want to figure out what to do to allow Premiere Pro CS6 + Yosemite + R3D files to all play nicely together.
    Please let me know if I can provide any more information or if there's anything I can do to get this up and running again.
    Thanks!
    Andrew

    Update from Adobe's Tim Kurkoski (on another thread):
    I have verified this problem. After Effects CS6, Premiere Pro CS6, and Adobe Media Encoder CS6 experience problems with RED .r3d files on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
    More specifically, the ImporterREDServer process used by these applications is failing to launch or crashing. You may be able to import and use some .r3d files for a short time, but once the ImporterREDServer process crashes, frames from imported files won't be returned, and importing new files will result in error messages.
    We are investigating the problem.
    This problem does not occur in the CC or CC 2014 versions of After Effects, Premiere Pro, or Adobe Media Encoder on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. If you do not have access to these versions, my suggestion for workarounds are to transcode the .r3d files to a different format (ex., QuickTime with ProRes or other high quality intermediate codec) or roll back to Mac OS X 10.9.
    Fingers crossed for an update!

  • PSE 10  and Adobe CS6: When running silent install help is not working afterwards

    Hello,
    I'm not sure if this is the correct forum. If not: Please help me find the correct one.
    I have a big issue with Adobe CS6 (and former versions like Photoshop Elements 10): When installing it from DVD running GUI everything is working fine afterwards. If I install e.g. Photoshop Elements 10 using "Silent Installation" help is not working afterwards. It states that it cannot locate the URL. I have not installed AIR and also do not plan to install it.
    I have 'played' a little around with Common Files\Adobe\helpcfg and help directory. Now at least I do not get an error message but still it's not the online help which opens in the browser but the web page that is defined as 'home'.
    The same I see now in Adobe CS6. I have e.g. packaged After Effects and Illustrator and when deploying it I'm not able to open help as well and I fear that this is the same issue.
    Has anyone deeper knowledge about how "helpcfg" is working? Any example files? Any other help appreciated as well.
    Kind regards

    @hannilator Have you checked the exceptions folder contents for instructions on how to push to logged off computers? Here's what I get when I package CS6 (DesignWebPrem) and excude AIR/CHC:
    After you have deployed the package, separately install the products in the exception folder.
    IMPORTANT: Before you install the products in the exception folder, refer to the following Adobe Knowledgebase article for information on installing these products and configuring the settings correctly:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/aamee_exceptions
    NOTE: The installation commands provided below will work when the user is logged in to the client machine where the package is being deployed. For the scenario where the user is not logged in, prefix the following string to the command:
    sudo launchctl bsexec `ps auwwx |grep [l]oginwindow | awk '{ print $2 }'`
    As an example, here is the command to install "Adobe AIR" when the user is not logged in to the client machine (assuming Adobe AIR is part of the package):
    sudo launchctl bsexec `ps auwwx |grep [l]oginwindow | awk '{ print $2 }'` Adobe\ AIR\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer -silent

  • Weird Playback Issue...

    I have this weird playback issue with iTunes for Windows. I am using Vista and I think the cause of the problem is that I am using MacDrive to access my OS X partition. But anyways, on with the problem. So the problem is that when I play a song, the song will play for like 5 seconds and then it will just go the next song. This song will do the same thing, and so-on and so-forth. Then, during this time, my Mac formatted hard drive is unavailable while iTunes is running. In "My Computer" the drive is there, but when I try to open it, Explorer freezes. Then, when I exit iTunes, it doesn't really exit. It still shows up in the task manager and when I try to end the process, it just plain doesn't end. I have to restart my computer to gain full use of it again. After the restart I can access my Mac disks, but once I start iTunes and try to play a song, I get the same thing again. And in case thats not weird enough, I can play the MP3's in WMP fine, and they will also play in iTunes fine if I actually open them, rather than just select them from my library. If I go to file open and select a song on my Mac drive, it will play fine, but then once I try to play a song from my library, I get caught in that vicious cycle. Anyone else had this problem or anything? Thanks. Also, is there an alternative program to Mac Drive that will allow me to read HFS partitions?

    Post more about your situation... what format is the video, and where are you storing the video files? i.e., on a disk other than your startup disk? The adobe install is likely not the problem... I run adobe software along side FCS on about 75 workstations, and don't see issues like you describe.
    Wavy? not accurate? what are you talking about?

    I bought a brand new Mac 27" desktop that came loaded with Adobe CS6. Everything worked like a charm until the hard drive, 1Tb, developed a bad sector and the Apple Store reinstalled a new one as I had extended warranty with them. They recycled the drive immediately (like a fool I didn't ask for it back to get the data off it.) But luckily I have all my data on CrashPlan. I downloaded it and it worked great except I downloaded it to the desktop and not the original location so it got squirrely. I also have an external 1.5Tb drive that I wanted to make bootable so I installed Mavericks 10.9.3 . I then went ahead and installed it on the newly installed drive too.
    I think that because I have a new drive Adobe thinks I have a news computer. I bought the 27" Mac brand new from Ebay and it came loaded with software, including CS6. I have a serial number for CS6 but Adobe said it wasn't valid. (I have owned CS2, CS4 and now CS6 which came preloaded onto the Mac by the seller who told me that the software was registered to the Mac???
    I am going to re-download the backup but this time to the original location (I still don't think it will work with Adobe. What can I do about this?
