After Effects Configuration Error 5 PLEASE HELP

Hello,
I am on a Mac with 10:9 Mavericks intalled and I cannot get After Effects CC to run without this Configuration Error 5. It happpened on Mountain Lion too. I have spent over 30 hours on the phone with tech support, uninstalling and reinstalling, using the cleaner, setting permissions, running commands in terminal, installing from the root directory and new admins and everything I could find on this forum that would help me. I can't afford to have this happen any longer, my job is on the line. Please does anyone have any advice to get this to work. Thank you.

I'm not sure if this is your issue, but the Maverick's update changed Adobe preferences folder settings on some systems. Check and set this folder's permissions to read/write for it and all its sub-folders.

Adobe After Effects Dynamic Link Problem (Please Help!)

Hello i've recently had this problem when i open Adobe it takes a while then i get a message come up about not having Quicktime not installed (Which i do have installed and the latest version) and then it comes up with another message reading this:
after effects error: Crash in progress. Last Logged message was: <1076> <Dynamiclink> <5> C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink\cs6\dynamiclinkmanager.exe
Please can someone tell me what to do?

The only thing I can figure out is that you are running a Widows operating system and AE CS6.
In many cases the message that you don't have QucikTime installed is because you have some 3rd party codec packs installed that are fouling up the pointers to QT. If we knew more about your system, the OS version, and what kind of video files you're using we may be able to give you more help.
One last thing. Have you run the latest CS6 updates?

After Effects Configuration Error 5

Hi, since two weeks I am struggling with the Configuration Error 5 at startup of After Effects CC. I tried to uninstall, reinstall, used CC Cleaner Tool, tried to install from a different user and so on. Nothing helps. I need advice.
I am on an iMac with i7 and Nvidia 780M with 4 GB VRam. OSX 10.9.3

If you upgraded to 10.9.3 then you can go back to 10.9.2 by following the instructions here: http://www.macissues.com/2014/05/21/10-9-3-causing-headaches-for-mac-pro-users/
If you did not try repairing permissions. Try deleting your Library/Application Support/ Adobe / After Effects CC folder and then updating. Try setting the permissions for both your user and system library AE folder to read write for everyone. I ran the upgrade to 10.9.3 on my Mac mini after reading all of the precautions and repairs. I'm now running 10.9.3 with no problems for AE on a Mac Mini with no problems. I have not upgraded my MacPro yet but probably will when the current project is complete.

Adobe After Effects (CS2) Question. Please Help!!!

Hi All,
I use Adobe After Effects CS2 and I am currently trying to make a still 2D Photoshop CS2 Image, into a 3D Short Movie (7 Seconds or so) on After Effects. However, when I import my Photoshop Image into After Effects, it only has a time duration of 2 Frames (0.2 Seconds I think?). I need this duration of time for the picture increased (as it is a still picture movie) but I'm not sure how to do it after fiddling around with my After Effects for about 2 - 3 Hours. I need to be able to put the time duration of my picture so it is able to be showing up on screen for about 15 Seconds. Also, how to you add 3D Text onto an After Effects picture? (In the movie). I really need help with this as I want this After Effects Film to be completed ASAP!!!
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Regards,
TheAAPlus

> Is CS6 now free?
No, though there is a free 30-day trial.
> And is it downloadable?

After Effects - Problems with rendering - please help :(

Hello everybody,
i am sorry about my bad english, but i hope    you can help me somehow. I pruchased the Productions Pro Premium from Adobe some time ago.
I created some Layers in Photoshop CS4 and animated them    in After Effects CS4. After that, i rendered a raw file out and imported it    back into After Effects CS4 to save render and preview time. Then the    problems started... my After Effects became laggy and didnt respond for    3-4Seconds. After starting rendering, my PC waited for 10-20 minutes until he    started to render... and longer and later i unchecked the box Write XMP data    in the render settings and the problem has gone. Do you know what i did    wong or why that happens? It has something to do with my losless rendered    .Avis and XMP Metadata... the strange thing is, that this doesnt happens always and with every clips, but maybe there is an anwser for me...
I got a W7 Os and my PC is very strong with    an i7 cpu and 6gbs of ram..
I hope you can help me..
Best    Regards

PLEASE HELP ME. :C

Do you have any previous versions installed or a beta version of the software? If so please try removing them and installing again.
If you wish to identify the exact root cause of your difficulties then please review your installation logs in their entirety. You can find directions on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

Thanks for the update and clarification. In researching the issue it seems that the 2003 error code may have something to do with the USB connection. I would use this section of one of the above articles:
Get help with iOS update and restore errors
If the USB connection between your device and computer is interrupted, you might not be able to update or restore.
To narrow down the issue, you can try different equipment:
Use the USB cable that came with your device, or a different Apple USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port directly on your computer. Don't plug it into your keyboard.
Try a different computer.
Solve other issues with the USB connection, then with your security software.
If you still see the error message, check for hardware issues by following the next section.
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
These errors mean that your device or computer might have a hardware issue that stops the update or restore from completing.
Check that your security software and settings aren't blocking your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
Make sure that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

Can't install Adobe Flash player ERROR. Please help

I tried to download the update of Adobe Flash Player BUT every time I try to download it... Look at the screen shot. ERROR.
Please help me I am really happy if someone here can help me.

Hello,
The log file indicates there are permissions issues on a couple of files and they are not being removed. This is preventing the installation of the new version. Please run the uninstaller, posted here Uninstall Flash Player | Windows, and post an updated FlashInstall.log file, and a screenshot of the files remaining in the /Macromed/Flash directory after running the uninstaller. Please only run the uninstaller and do not attempt to re-install at this time.
Thank you.

Error code 6 & media offline & after effect warning errors.

Increasingly I am getting the attached error messages when I try to open files. (mostly .psd and .ind files)
1.) It often says I don’t have permission to open the file, it is not the right type of file, or the file doesn’t exist... none of which are true.
The files always work if I copy them locally and open them from my harddrive.
2.) "media offline" error.
3.) after effects warning error.
Help needed. Thx.

Hi Saif,
You might get several issues, if you are directly opening files from the server or a network location, to your machine and editing them. You might also get issue while saving then to the server. I think your issue is one of them.
This is because, several thing comes into picture while you are opening, editing, saving files over the network. You may face some network issues, firewall issues and mostly permissions issues.
So, adobe always recommends to save the file locally on the machine first and then perform editting and saving operations. once you are done, you can copy it to the network.
Check the below article just for reference.

You might try reading the entire help document you linked from:
Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com
Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
Install the latest version of iTunes.
Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. FollowiTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

Photoshop Elements 8. "Could not use Clone Stamp Tool because of a program error." Please help.

Photoshop Elements 8. "Could not use Clone Stamp Tool because of a program error." Please help.

Try this:
Open your picture file
Access the clone stamp tool
Hold down the ALT key on the keyboard and left click on the area from which you wish to clone, then release the ALT key, and click to place the pixels at the destination
TIPS:
It is a good idea to open a blank layer at the top in the layers palette, and do the cloning on this layer. Be sure that "sample all layers" at the top is checked. You can change the layer opacity if necessary
Use the bracket keys next to the letter p on the keyboard to increase & decrease the size of the cursor
Let us know how you make out with the error message now.
