After Effects CS6 cuts a render short when I open an unrelated Premiere Pro file

While in the middle of an AE render, I lunched Premiere and opened an unrelated file to the clip I'm rendering in AE. as son as the project opened, my AE rendered chimed as if finished, but it was actually cut short.
Anyone know what could be causing this?
I'm on a Mac, running Snow Leopard.
Thanks.

Here you go.
Thanks.

After Effects CS6 Launches to Render Cue after 11.04.2 Update Yosemite

After Effects CS6 Launches to Render Cue on OS X Yosemite after 11.04.2 update prior to this update it wouldn't even launch. Everything is grayed out as well. I am running a fully licensed version.
MBP 15 Retina OS X Yosemite
2.5 GHz Intel Core i7
NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 M

You're launching the render engine and not the full version of AE. Make sure you're selecting the right app to launch. And if you're super-sure that your shortcut or whatever you're clicking on is the one to launch the full version, make sure you don't have the render engine txt file somewhere you don't want it.
A blank file named ae_render_only_node.txt in one of the following locations (depending on the user account type) will result in AE launching the render engine only:
Mac OS: /Users/[username]/Documents/ /Users/Shared/Adobe/
Windows: C:Users/[username]/My Documents C:Users/Public/Public Documents/Adobe
Also, since this is immediately after updating Mac OSX, you're probably going to need to fix permissions: fixing permissions problem that impedes start of Adobe applications

After Effects CS6 11.0.2 crashes when using the pen tool (Mac OS X 10.8.2)

I'm using After Effects CS6 11.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.8.2. Whenever I use the pen tool to add a vertex, the application crashes. I've submitted several crash reports to apple (they get sent to apple automatically when the app relaunches).
My specs:
iMac
21.5-inch, Mid 2010
Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3
Memory 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
Anybody else having this problem or have a solution?

So I have discovered it only crashes when adding a vertex when I'm editing the max a few frames in. When I add vertices on the first frame of the comp I don't have any trouble. I've tried unchecking the box that says preserve constant vertex count, and it still happens.

After Effects CS6 fails to render and I dont know why?

I'm fairly new with After Effects and my problem is that when I am trying to render my movie, it fails to render at the exact same point every time. The point where it fails is when my 1st video is transitioning to my 2nd video in the movie. And when I try to RAM preview my movie, it wont render parts where one video transitions to another video. Earlier today there was an error coming up saying that frames could not render simultaneously and that I needed to fix my multiprocessing settings. I'm using both Quicktime Movie and MP4 files in this movie. Here are my Memory and Multiprocessing settings: http://gyazo.com/4974772d0a104f01c19257d75b790155

Nope, sorrry, those effects don't help diagnose anything.
If you answer these questions, we stand a fighting chance at diagnosis.

After Effects CS6 super long render times.

I am trying to render multiple 30 second long compositions and the renders are reaching over 5 hours each. There is nothing special in any of the compositions. I have rendered these same compositions in the past with minor changes in AE CS5 and they finished in seconds using the Open GL renderer. I understand CS6 uses a different engine for rendering. I have ensured my video card is in the supported list (added it), and ray tracing is set to the GPU. I triple checked all the drivers and everything is up to date. I have tried every combination of settings I can think of with no results. Help!
System Specs:
i7-3930K
GTX 770
32gb ram
Windows 7 64bit

Five hours is not an unusual render time for a 30-second composition, depending on the details of the composition.

After effects cs 5.5 not responding when I open up a project file

I was recently working on an intro for a youtube channel and my project had been running smoothly the night before. But now all of a sudden I open it up today and it starts not responding when I try and open the file. It is running on a mac with 8 GB of memory and a 2.1 GHz intel i7 processor, I have no idea what's happening and I really need help. Thank you for your time.

I can understand that my info was vague, but I am as well a novice in after effects. I have a good bit of experience with it, but not a professional standard. I have 1 video file of average length, a photoshop file, and a word layer, no other effects really. My comp size is 1280 by 720, and I don't know what other info I could give. My other projects run fine, it seems to just be this one now that you mention it. Should I try starting a new project and just working off of that? I can understand that you need to know a lot more, but I was also just asking a general question because I felt that it might be common issue of a setting that I may have had to change, so I'm sorry my info was so vague, but that was my reasoning. I don't believe that saving and backups are my problem, but if you believe it's a means to the solution then by all means please justify that. Thank your for your time and help.

After Effects Error messages DF015, DF037,DW063 when installing

My After Effects CS6 folder was deleted and when I try to reinstall After Effects I get these error messages. The install gets to 99% and then fails.

I ran the cs cleaner tool and fixed the problem.

After Effects CS6 - Initializing Mediacore Issue - More Complex.

Hi, I recently got After Effects CS6, and I have had the program open a few times - when I say a few, I mean 4 or 5, all in the same day, and I was only opening and closing the program to check to see if I'd installed plugins correctly. So, anyway back to the point; I sat and created a 10 second clip for which I was going to use for a YouTube intro. I finished and exported the clip, only to find that after I had saved and closed the program, the clip I had exported was some form of .AVI that had encoded incorrectly (or something similar, this part isn't particularly relevant.) Then when I tried to re-open AE, the program hung at the 'Initializing Mediacore...' section of the loading screen, and it has done for a while now. I have tried restarting, re-installing, removing the 3rd-party plugins, and re-intalling QuickTime. I've been reading all the forums and looked up the issue on YouTube, and all the answers are wrong or lacking information about my issue. Every working answer I find is either about about a Mac issue, or any Windows issue keeps mentioning these 3 programs; Adobe QT32 Server.exe, dynamiclinkmanager.exe, and PProHeadless.exe, none of which I have.
I run a 64-bit, Windows 7, Acer Aspire with 4 GB of RAM. Any helpful - emphasis on the helpful there - information will be greatly accepted.
Cheers.

The executables are in the program directories. Still, none of that is probably relevant. Something is damaging your media cache and/or blocking those services from even launching, which takes us back to basic trobleshooting steps which are:
Run as admin
Turn off security tools
Verify file and folder permissions on the temp and user directories
Cehck drive integrity and health

Dynamiclinkmanager.exe crash on startup: After Effects CS6

Every now and then Adobe Application Manager uninstalls itself for some reason, and when this happens Premiere Pro and After Effects don't work. I then quickly reinstall it and Premiere Pro works fine but After Effects does not. I get this error: "After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <5092> <DynamicLink> <5> F:\Adobe After Effects\Adobe After Effects CS6\Support Files\32\dynamiclinkmanager.exe" and then when I click OK this pops up: "After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. For After Effects Help and Support...." and so on. I don't know if it matters but at the bottom of this box it says "(0::42)". After that point it says "Adobe After Effects CS6 has stopped working" and the usual pops up. Can you give me any feedback, I don't know what's wrong with it. I heard some things like delete the prefs file and that didn't work. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you. (and yes, that location is where I have Adobe After Effects installed, my main drive is out of space.)

You need to install After Effects on your C: drive.
Also, you need to install the bug-fix updates. You are running version 11.0.0, not 11.0.4. Updates: http://adobe.ly/DVA_updates

Horrible final video quality in After Effects CS6 when rendering a 1920x1080 video with H.264 format

I've been using After Effects CS6 on my Macbook Pro for over a year now with no issues. However, today when I exported a video to be rendered in 1920x1080p with H.264 format, I got the worst quality final video I've ever seen. I filmed my video files in 1920x1080p (like usual), and I clicked all the same buttons I normally do to export a video, but every HQ video I try to export looks horrible. I haven't clicked any crazy buttons or anything out of the ordinary.
I always export a video following this sequence:
File > Export > Add to Render Queue > Lossless > H.264 (quality format) > video output (make sure it's checked) > audio output (make sure it's checked) > OK > Output to Desktop
My render settings are always set as "best settings" including "full" resolution and "best" quality.
Now, when I click H.264, a "settings mismatch" pops up and says:
"Warning: Output file will be resized from 1920x1080 (1.00 PAR) to 320x1080 (6.00 PAR) to meet format constraints"
The rendering quality and playback quality within After Effects is great, but once the video is exported, it is horrible.
PLEASE HELP?! I have deadlines I need to meet!

Use the H.264 encoding presets in Adobe Media Encoder.
The H.264 export features in After Effects have been removed in later versions because of numerous problems.
