After effects CS6 fails exports on anything but h.264

working along fine in CS4. update (via cloud subscription) to CS6 and suddenly render queue generates "disk full" errors on any format other than h.264.
all of my drives have have hundreds of gigs available. my system meets the spec requirements. help?

yeah. i know my explanation was a bit vague (i was in deadline panic mode).
i was just hoping someone would chime in saying there was a known issue with the cs6 update or something...
mcbook pro
2.66 core2duo
os 10.6.8
4 gigs ram (meager, yes. but ive run AE on it for years)
video shows 2 cards: NVIDIA 9400m 256 and NVIDIA 9600mGT 512
appears that im running quicktime 7.6.6
have FCP 6 installed so im running whatever codecs it comes with (never was a problem with ae cs4...)
and all drives have 100gigs or more free space and the message i get says target disk is full...
wonder if updating to 10.7 would help...?

  • Creative Cloud thinks After Effects CS6 is on my computer, but it isn't.

    I never installed the trial version of After Effects CS6, but when I went to do so, Creative Cloud said it was already on my computer and up to date.
    I searched in all of my system files and nothing came up. I know for sure I have never used it. I can't download the trail from the adobe website because it automatically opens up Creative Cloud, which can't uninstall programs, so I can' get After Effects.

  • 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.

  • After Effects CS6 fails install

    Hi,
    I have a new iMac, and have been trying for the past few hours to install After Effects through AAM. Every time I get the Installation Failure (-60) message. Sometimes it gets to 99%, sometimes less.
    I have tried downloading trial software directly (Safari & Firefox) and through Download Assistant - none have worked. I have installed Dreamweaver, Muse and Speedgrade through AAM (the smallest packages), I just can't install the application I actually want to use.
    I'd appreciate any help, I have a job starting in the next day or two and stupidly thought installing the software would be the easy bit.
    Typical. Five minutes after I posted this, After Effects made it through the installation! Have no idea what the problem was - just flaky I suppose.

  • After Effects CS6 export to Lightwave option isn't available

    I'm trying to export a camera motion from After Effects CS6 to Lightwave 11.5, but the option isn't even available in the File>Export menu. Is there a special download I need to install?
    I watched several tutorials, and none of them mention a special plugin.

    I gave up on LW after that Core debacle and only loosely follow things there, but I would assume that the new workflow would require a specific plug-in to be installed similar to Cinema 4D's exchange plug-ins. Maybe refer to the LW help ofr ask on the NewTek forums...

  • After Effects Cs6 Won't Open. Error Code: 16

    I use After Effects Cs6 on a daily basis but now when i try opening the program, an error window pops up saying that i need to uninstall and reinstall the program but i don't want to lose all my plugins for the program. What do i do?

    ...i don't want to lose all my plugins for the program. What do i do?
    First thing, make certain you actually have to reinstall.  For example, what happens if you just turn off the computer, go have a cup of coffee, then turn it back on, launch AE and open a project file?  Or if you mess with your multiprocessing settings, and double-check the drivers for your third-party card?
    No Joy?
    Write down all the pulgins you installed.  Gather all the applicable installers.  Follow Mylenium's advice on the Cleaner Tool when uninstalling, then bite the bullet and reinstall the plugins.  It's a Right Royal Pain, but you'll have to do it.  Sorry, no shortcuts here.

  • AVI CAN'T IMPORT AFTER EFFECTS CS6

    I downloaded After Effects CS6 free trial 32 bit but it doesn't allow me to import AVI files, can someone help me?
    The error message states: After Effects error "Camera122.avi" cannot be opened it may be an unsupported format
    (86::1)

    What the others said. The naming of the file already implies that this is some hacky pseudo-MPEG4 in an AVI container such as some cheap photo cameras produce it... It may realyl only be viewable through the software that comes with the camera...

  • After Effects CS6 problem

    In my creative cloud it shows that After Effects CS6 is "up to date" but it isn't on my computer. I used to have it a while ago and I think I accidently moved it to the trash. So is it still on my computer and how do I get it back? Because I can not download it from creative cloud anymore. Thanks!

  • After Effects CS6 Update fails with the code (U43M1D204)

    I was just downloading and installing the latest updates on both my windows workstation and my Apple MBP.  Everything went fine on the windows machine but I keep getting the following error when my MBP attempts to update After Effects CS6:
    Update Failed
    The download appears corrupted. Please try again after a few minutes.
    (U43M1D204)
    I am running the latest version of Yosemite (10.10.2).  Is there some half downloaded file I can delete to make this work?  I've waited.  I've rebooted.  I'm VERY reluctant to delete my current installation of CS6 if this is what is required.  I'm an instructor at a local community college.  The college currently only runs CS6.  I teach an animation class that uses After Effects and as such I need CS6 working on my MBP.  If this update is non critical I'll just let it ride.  Oh, yea and I also keep AE CC and AE CC 2014 for no other reason than I can take a students CC 2014 file all the way back to CS6 so they can work in class.  I'm guessing I'll need to add CC 2015 or what ever they call it so I will have 4 installations of AE just to do file conversions..... but that is another thread.
    Any help on the current install issue would be appreciated

    What update is it? What current version of CS6 do you have?
    It may be a permissions thing. Mac OSX goes all screwy in the permissions whenever it updates. Try fixing that first. fixing permissions problem that impedes start of Adobe applications

  • Exporting layers of audio from After Effects  cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?

    exporting layers of audio from After Effects  cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?
    Help - I have an After effects project with multiple layered files and want to copy these to Premiere / Audition. For example I know if you select multiple video files from After Effects these can be pasted straight into Premiere intact - but this does not work with audio. I want to take existing layered audio files from After Effects to Audition / or Premiere but can't copy and paste - is there a simple solution for this?

    Hi thanks Dave for responding - yes that could work as a 'workaround' -  I was hoping there would be a way I can keep the existing independent audio layers and corresponding audio levels from After Effects- in the same way I can copy and paste video files from After Effects to Premiere - rather than exporting a flattened AIFF /WAV from After Effects.
    This would then allow me a lot more control working on the final edit - especially as currently a lot of the audio layers overlap. It does seem there is no simple solution for this, so  otherwise I can do what you suggest - and 'stagger all the audio files' in sequence so they do not overlap on the timeline and then when I import the flattened exported AIFF file into Audition/ Premeire / I then can cut it up again and recreate the overlaps. Was hoping there might be a simple copy + paste method or other 'export method' but I guess this is simply not possible. It would save me about 7 hours of work, but not the end of the world I guess
    One final point - some of the audio clips are .mp3s but the majority are WAVS, hopefully this should not create any issues on the export.
    thanks again for your help, if you or anyone has any other solution pls let me know
    Best

  • No option for export pro res 422 from after effects cs6

    There is no option for export prores 422 from after effects cs6 on new mac os 10.8.2 shows up and works on older mac 10.6.8
    How can I get this option back?

    I will guess that you used to have Final Cut Pro, but you no longer have it.  Generally, only machines with Final Cut Pro installed are able to write to ProRes 422. 
    There are third-party codec packages that do write to the ProRes family of codecs.  They have been discussed in this forum, and you could search for their names.  I'm sorry to say that I don't remember them.

    Thx.

    Thank you so much, Mr. Curtis! I'm not sure exactly how that worked, but it allowed me to get back on both AE and Premiere Pro. 10 points to you!
    Also, for the  other people that may have similar problems and are viewing this forum, definitely try this out. Listen to Jim's advice, don't use the most recent version (which is currectly 5.5.47) - instead try a slightly older one. The one I had installed was version 5.5.24.
    Once again, thank you! You saved my project!
