AE CC not overriding start frame preference with Timecode..

Hi all,
Just trying out After Effects CC and loaded an Animation Quicktime. I've set my project preference to FRAMES and START AT FRAME 1, but it refuses to acknowledge and insists on starting on frame 184716, which I presume it's taking from whatever timecode was possibly embedded in the quicktime.
I do not want this behaviour.. I need frame ONE to be FRAME ONE, I'm importing tracking data that has these frame numbers encoded.
I'll have to revert back to CS6 until this can be resolved.
Thanks,
Steven Blasini

Thank you kindly, Rick.
That worked. But in all my many years of working with AE (on PC's since 1996), I've never set the start frame from the composition... always had it set in PROJECT PREFERENCES. Even in AE CS6 this still works the way it used to... with Project Preferences set to FRAMES and start frame 1, anything I loaded up was always starting on Frame 1.
Now with CC, they've added this new requirement... but, at least you got me on the right path.
Thanks for such a quick response! Highly appreciated! (I went back to CS6 for this particular shot and it's done, but now I'll resume the brave new world of CC and see what else they've changed on us.)
Was already disappointed to find out that I could not import all my OUTPUT MODULES from CS6 into CC... and that most of the modules have been moved over to Media Encoder... change change change change.... hopefully for the better...
PS: We're running Windows 8 and the latest CC as downloaded via Cloud subscription.
Steven

  • Local control center is not getting started

    Hi all,
    we have Linux server installed with OWB 10.2 which will act as CLIENT . And a database unix server (oracle 10g) which is doesnt have OWB installed on it which will act as SERVER.
    Now we have created the OWB repository through CLIENT in the database server of the SERVER machine, and the server will be our OWB target database.
    IN the scenerio we are able to open th design center. but when we are starting the OWB control services manually ( login as OWB repo Owner) through the client machine , it is not getting started. Failes with the error "run_service.sh not found"
    And when we run the service doctor it shows the following message....
    "There is a problem accessing the service startup script from the database server
    Please verify that the disk containing the file is visible to the database server
    Please verify that the database server account has access rights on the file " .
    It seems to be the problem with acessing the OS file from client machine through the repo_owner(database owb repo user) which is a part of server database.
    Please help me in this regard.

    The good thing about the oracle db is that you get the owb installed with the database so you dont run into these kind of problems.
    When you install the database and owb together and try to run the controlcenter, the controlcenter comes up on its self via a script at <owbhome>rtp\sql\start_service
    Now that you dont have your owb installed on your database you need to run that script with some different paramaters
    Host: servername
    port:1521
    service_name: [email protected]

  • A session could not be started with the ipod

    My ipod touch 3 won't sync.  I get a message that says "itunes could not back up the ipod "xxx" because a session could not be started with the ipod."  I tried the recommendation of going to edit-->preferences-->devices and deleting the 'back up' file, but there IS no back up file.  I've updated my security software.  I've run the diagnostic for syncing and it said it passed.  I've shut off and restarted my ipod.  Not sure what else to do.  Don't really want to restore to original settings.

    I had this problem and found the solution (for me anyway). After looking in Logs I found a lot of "could not create file in All Users/Lockdown". On this XP computer it is here (and hidden):
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple
    So I moved the files in the Lockdown folder out of there. Then I got another error about the "pairing record missing" and searching that, found to move the .plist files out of the Preferences directory (all of the above with iTunes shut down i.e. not running of course). These were located here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Joanne\Application Data\Apple Computer\Preferences
    Then I launched iTunes and all was well again. Maybe you can just delete the .plists out of Preferences, I dunno.
    Hope this helps you or anyone else searching on this somewhat maddening problem. I encountered the trouble upon updating iTunes to 10.5 and then trying to sync my iPod Touch v4.3.1. The backup has to work of course before I can update to iOS 5.0.

  • I have a MacPro with two 1T hard drives. How do I access the hard drive that is not the start-up drive?

    I purchased a MacPro and upgraded to 2 1T hard drives.  How do I access the hard drive that is not the start-up drive?

    Have you formatted these new drives yet with Disk Utility?  That is the first step.
    Once they are formatted, if you want to see them on your desktop open the Finder preferences, General, and clock the checkbox that says "Show these items on the desktop" for the hard disks.  If that preference was already set you should see the drives appear after they are formatted.  Then they are there for you to use as you wish.

  • Hi everyone. I have just started having problems with iCal.  Events that I thought I had deleted are appearing on Print Preview and on print outs. Likewise Events which I have not deleted have disappeared from my calenders, but appear in print preview.

    Hi everybody. I have recently started having problems with iCal (Version 2.05 (1069). Events that I thought I had deleted appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. Likewise Events that I have not deleted have disappeared from my calender (Month View) but appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. I see that there have been similar problems with Events disappearing especially in Month View. I wondered how print preview seemrd to be picking everything up deleted or not, and what the solution may be?. First time of Posting. I hope I haven't embarassed myself.

    Hmmmm.
    At the very least there must be a "com.apple.ical.plist"...iCal would not function without it.
    Click on the Finder icon in the dock
    Click on Go > Home
    Double-click Library
    Double-click Preferences
    Look for a file called "com.apple.ical.plist" and remove it to the trash.

  • WIndows 7 and Server2008 machines will not remember network discovery preferences, requires setting every start up or wake up.

    hello
    I wondered if anybody here could be so kind as to help me solve this situation
    i have two Windows 7 machines and Server2008 machines will not remember network discovery preferences,
    i am running software on the windows server machine that collects data and serves information to two windows 7 machines, and network discovery is required for this purpose
    these machines are configured in a local stand alone network configured as a workgroup the only other items on network are none PC based equipment that the server happily communicates with and reads data from
    once the network discovery is set for the network the system runs as expected but on every start-up (or wake up) the network discovery is lost and need to be re allowed. this is the case in both windows server 20008 r2 and windows 7
    how do i make these preferences permanent. so that it will restart and re establish communication its self without intervention
    am i missing a setting or if not  is there a way i can script the the selection of preference on each start(/wake)up.
    the final user need to be able to turn system on/restart and use it with out having to have any IT/networking knowledge to get system running.
    thank you for taking the time to read my query

    You can use group policy to enable network discovery so that it is always configured
    1. In the Group Policy editor on a Win7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 computer, open the GPO that you want
    to use in the Group Policy Editor.
    2. Expand "Computer Configuration", "Windows Settings", "Security Settings", "Windows Firewall with Advanced
    Security", and then "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security - {policy you have open}".
    3 Right-click "Inbound Rules", and then click "New Rule".
    4 In the Rule Wizard, on the Rule Type page, select"Predefined", and then select Network Discovery from
    the list.  Click Next.
    5 On the Predefined Rules page, ensure that the check box is on each rule that is part of the Network
    Discovery group, and then click Next.
    6 On the Action page, select "Allow the Connection", and then click Finish.

  • How do I deal with "StartUpItems if2k" has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings?

    Whenever I turn on or restart my MBP, a dialog box appears saying --> “/Library/StartupItems/if2k” has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings. 
    How can I fix this? 
    First, I searched online and found a site with a If2k_Remover_V2.zip file, but whenever I try to open the link, a page comes up saying,
    Forbidden
    You don't have permission to access /w/files/if2k/If2k_Remover_V2.zip on this server.
    Any thoughts on this?
    Also, I see the if2k folder in the Library/StartUpItems; is it something I can just drag into the Trash?  Or would that be a bad move?

    Did you ever figure this out? I just upgraded to Lion on my Air and I have the same issue.

  • Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) won't install with iTunes,either V10.7 or V11. The service can't be started b/c the software is not there. Windows 7 with latest service pack. V11 iTunes installs

    Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) won't install with iTunes,either V10.7 or V11. The service can't be started b/c the software is not there. Windows 7 with latest service pack. V11 iTunes installs fine, iPod found, no iPhone 5 b/c no AMDS.  Error "insufficient premissions to install AMDS" Tried numerous uninstall / reinstall combinations, installed iTunes as administrator, etc.  Somethings not right.

    See the following article for dealing with Apple Mobile Device Services: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567
    Downloading and installing iTunes will not fix this problem. If the other troubleshooting steps do not work, go to the Control Panel and uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Services, Quicktime and any other Apple program that might be present. Reboot your computer, then download and install the latest version of iTunes.

  • "iTunes could not back up the iPhone 'my IPhone' because a session could not be started with the iPhone"

    Since 2 updates I started getting iTunes could not back up the iPhone 'my IPhone' because a session could not be started with the iPhone. This is happening with my iPad and iPhone. I see hundreds of complains on this issue starting from last year and obviously Apple has no clue how to solve this error. I went through the solutions and spend over an hour deleting backups resetting lockdown, restarting and nothing is working. Are they serious to ask us to disconnect all other USB devices to sync our equipment everyday to solve their problem? iTunes is the worst program I have seen on the market in the past 10 years. It reminds me of DOS programs that could only do one item at a time. You click a command and just wait and wait and wait. Of course they want me to call customer service, wait for x time to talk to tech support and then spend more time. I don't have the time. I spent a lot of money to get an equipment that should work as advertised and not spend further my valuable time. I have reached my limit with Apple and that crap iTunes. I'm calling for a divorce.
    [By the way, your spell check doesn't recognize your own products such as iPad, iTunes and iPhone. Such an embarrassing company.]

    Do you happen to be running any processes that Apple doesn't want you to use? (Jailbroken?)

  • ITunes could not back up the iPhone because a session could not be started with the iPhone

    Hi
    I have just updated to iTunes 10.7.(oh it just scrolled off the screen give me 5 minutes for it to come back again) 10.7.0.21 - the latest version
    I run Win7 64bit & during installation i got the blue-screen of death & windows crashed
    I went to apple website & downloaded iTunes manually & installed (it tried to install in the (x86) folder as usual, so i forced it into the 64 bit program folder like i always have to do.
    It now runs fine but when ever i sync in get the error "iTunes could not back up the '' iPhone because a session could not be started with the iPhone"
    I have tried deleting the existing backup as suggested in the forums but that didn't solve the problem, and now i have no backups at all
    I have restarted the iPhone & the computer but the error is still the same.
    PS i have "Encypt local backup" selected, if i try to unselect that option at the moment it says my password is incorrect, my password is correct, i made a record of it & know exactly what password i used but iTunes is saying it is wrong, is this because i have no backups at the moment or is iTunes completely broken
    I have also tried to backup to iCloud as a temporary measure but it says i don't have enough space so must buy some!
    Any help would be appreciated

    Could be that iTune can't read your latest backup file. You might have to delete it, follow this article to find out how to delete the backup from the list: iTunes: "Backup could not be saved on the computer" alert message
