Adobe Media Encoder Mac problem

Hi folks,
I've put off posting this for 2 months now in the hopes that I could figure it out myself by reading through the myriad of other posts on this, but I'm at the end of my efforts with no luck.
First off, system specs:
Mac Pro 2.8 GHz 8 core, 12 GB RAM, Leopard 10.5.8
Adobe Prod Premium Suite CS4 latest versions
Files: H264 1280x720 from Canon T1i, also same prob for any projects with footage from Canon HV30
Problem: same old one that's been posted a million times-
-click export and it opens media encoder, hit encode and it says "loading" for about 5 minutes, then gives the ole' "Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted" error
Things I have tried or noted:
-Uninstalled, Ran CS4 clean, removed anything (prefs etc) Adobe, Reinstalled
-made sure no Red Giant demos were on the machine
-repaired permissions
I tried doing it on my Macbook Pro, and it works just fine, so the prob is specific to my mac pro
If there is any other ideas for this, please let me know, I've seen numerous suggestions for Windows, but not for mac.
One interesting thing is that Premiere crashed about a dozen times when I open it for the first time after an install, being an audio engineer, I have a ton of vst instruments on the machine, and it seemed like it would crash on initializing many of the plug-ins. Native instruments in particular were bad, but after each restart it would move on to the next plug-in. It did do this on the Macbook Pro as well though...
This is getting very frustrating as I love working with Premiere, but the only option for me has been to open the project in After Effects, and export from there... far from ideal.
Any ideas? Any other info needed? Thanks for any help!

Well Harm, you are now official tech support for Macs too!!! (whether you like it or not
I moved the vst plug-ins and voila, yellow export bar for the FIRST TIME in Media Encoder!!!!
So for now, I might try figuring out which is the culprit, but I think I'll just move the plug-ins whenever it comes time to export.
You have made my day! (I just wish I would have asked for help months ago!)

How do I find and install an older version of Adobe Media Encoder (Mac)?

I am currently trialing Adobe InDesign on my Mac (Snow Leopard).
I was unable to open the installed version of AME (7.0.0). I updated to 7.0.1 via this page http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?platform=Macintosh&product=160 but AME still wouldn't open.
As I understand it AME version 7 is only compatible with Mac OS 10.7 or higher, which would explain why it isn't opening.
Is it possible to download an older version of AME that would be compatible with Max OS 10.6.8? And if so, where do I find it? (The page above appears to have only update files.)

> Is it possible to download an older version of AME that would be compatible with Max OS 10.6.8?
Yes. You can use Adobe Media Encoder CS6, which comes with such applications as InDesign CS6.

It may be hidden since it's a system folder. You can get to it one of two ways.
Either: Hit start button + r to get run, then insert (C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\4.0\) without the () and press enter. *This is assuming that your username is Administrator. If the folder exists it will take you there, even if it is hidden.
Other way: hit start button on keyboard and type in "folder options". Press enter when it shows up in the start menu search. Click on the View tab then select "Show hidden files, folders, or drives" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files". This should enable you to see both the AppData and Roaming folder. You may want to undo these selections otherwise you'll see files you usually don't want to see. (thumbnail caches...)
If neither of these methods work, let me know which folders you see in this directory "C:\Users", Administrator may not the account you're currently running on.

Adobe Media Encoder Install Problem

Hi-
I am encountering some problems when trying to start Adobe Media Encoder. It jumps to two successive "Adobe Media Encoder" install screens (one for the exporter, one for the importer) After some loading time, it displays an error message "Installation was unsuccessful. Restarting Adobe Media Encoder will trigger the installer again. Please contact Adobe Technical Support if this problem persists." It then goes to the Adobe Media Encoder screen.I can load files, and export them, but I am unsure what is wrong that makes it complete this "install/installation unsuccessful" sequence every time I try to open the program or export in Premiere Pro.
I have tried re installing Premier Pro and Adobe Media encoder, and it does not work. Also, I have tried updating, to no avail.
I attached pictures of the install screen, and the error screen.
I am currently using a student liscence of Adobe Production Premium, Windows version.
Thank you for the help
Sam

Please contact Adobe Technical Support if this problem persists.
Good advise.

Adobe Media Encoder CS4 problem

I having a ***** at Adobe
I do have a lienced copoy CS4 Design Premium. I down loaded premier pro CS4 to demo it about 8 months ago and had not used it up to about 1 weeks ago. All that time Adobe Media Encoder CS4 did not work. I came back to the problem last week when I wanted to convert a video to a FLV file, did not work, I went through uninstalling and reinstalling Design Premium: reloaded parts of the the suite still did not work: went to the forums and tried every which way to get resolution nothing worked. This morning I opened up Premier and it world not open without serial key I was only a week into the 30 trial period. So I uninstalled premier. Reloaded the Media Encoder and guess what it worked. I am know looking at buying another product. Another thing while using the trial version I could not demo encore CS4.
****** off
PS I have now uploaded the FLV to my website. I never had any problem with AME CS4 until I loaded Premier CS4

Export AVI from Adobe Media Encoder Mac

I would like to export AVI files from Adobe Media Encoder (CS5 or later) on a Mac running 10.6.8 or later. Am I able to buy the codecs for Mac to do so?

[email protected]
VLC player does get the job done, but I have found it to be glitchy in the past.
I would recommend MPEG Streamclip much more strongly.
I trust it much more.
And free download, for Mac or PC. Just google it. (Though I have only ever used the Mac versions.)
Though, I don't understand what you mean by saying that the .avi extention seem contrary to what was said above.
Whatever "container" you use for your video file is what the extension will be. i.e. "video_file.avi"
Within that container, there will be a compression codec (of which there are numerous options) that the container used to compress the video.
That codec will not be displayed in the extension.
MknzBrkr
I know you posted over a month ago...but maybe it will still be helpful!
I do not remember the video codecs available within VLC player. Sorry.
But if you decide to follow my advice to Timoyer and use MPEG Streamclip (which I highly recommend that you do!)...
Then you can use File > Export to AVI... > and then select "Apple Component Video - YUV422".
That is an uncompressed format.
While it will be quite large, hopefully that will be what your client is looking for.
Good luck to you all!
And have a great week!

Adobe Media Encoder Mac - Wont Resolve to Alias Files

Hi,
AME has one big problem:
Do This
1) Goto a .MOV file and make an alias of it (alt+command drag the file to i.e. desktop)
2) Now drag that into AME...
Instead of resolving to the alias it prompts the user that "This File Format is not Supported"
I think it should resolve the original movie...

Well Harm, you are now official tech support for Macs too!!! (whether you like it or not
I moved the vst plug-ins and voila, yellow export bar for the FIRST TIME in Media Encoder!!!!
So for now, I might try figuring out which is the culprit, but I think I'll just move the plug-ins whenever it comes time to export.

That doesn't look like a complete panic report. Is there any more to it? Regardless, I suggest you run the extended form of the Apple Hardware Test. If it fails to identify a fault, remove the RAM upgrade and test with the original RAM.

Adobe Media Encoder CC auf Mac nicht vorhanden?

Hallo!
Ich habe ein Problem und zwar, mir fehlt der Adobe Media Encoder auf meinem Mac. Ich wollte geschnittene Videos in einer Warteschlange rendern, doch dann musste ich feststellen das ich dieses Programm nicht installiert habe.
Muss ich es irgendwo separat runter laden / kaufen?
mit freundlichen Grüßen

Adobe Media Encoder CS5 MAC Freezes

Hi there,
We all know that exporting files from Premier Pro into flv files (and some others takes some time). An excellent way to work around this is to build up a queue of items in the Adobe Media Encoder. Then, you can run the queue when you are going to leave the computer for any length of time, say, overnight.
I have Premier Pro CS5 and Media Encoder CS5 on a Mac and have just done all the various updates. Unfortunately, this does not solve my problem - if I have about 4 items in the queue, it works fine. However, if I have, say 8 items in the queue, AME will freeze whilst working on about the 4th item. This happens reasonably consistently and is very annoying - any suggestions how I can sort out this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I am using a Macbook Pro with the i7 processor and 4 Gbyte of RAM, 7200 disk speed.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you ExactImage, if that is your real name.... I was able to reset AME 5.5 by holding down the Ctrl+Shift+Alt keys whilst starting the program. Your help is appreciated.

Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 Mac Will Not Open!

As of late, my AME has not been able to open at all. I really don't know how this happened.
My specs
Macbook Pro 13" Mid 2010 model
Processor 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB Ram
Mac OSX 10.8.3
I keep having crash errors reported bad access. And then I try to start reading the debug code, and then I fall over. And I usually do well with reading crash reports.
Any ideas? I have tried loading with default preferences and removing all third-party plugins.

I have the same problem since I update my mac book pro Mac Lion 10.7.3

Premiere Pro CS4 and Adobe Media Encoder Problems

I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 on a Mac running 10.6, and I consistently encounter this problem when trying to export a Premiere project using Adobe Media Encoder.
What does this mean? And has anyone else encountered this problem as well? I really need a fix if there is one, because I really need to be using Premiere. I have reinstalled several times, but to no avail. Help me please!

Jim, thanks for testing.
My concerns are about a)distribution and general b)compatibility.
a) When videos are distributed most of the users will probably try to open the files with Windows Media Player. So it is not a good start to have fresh exported h.264 videos which won't run fine with the 'main' player on windows
b) I am wondering if the Problems with Windows Media Player may also be a sign of a general compatibility issue of the h.264 video itself
At least in case b) Adobe would have to look into this.
Here is another test video:
