After Effects error message

Adobe After Effects CS 6 when opening project files it gives the error message that it can't open a document file, this happens even with downloaded template files or previous project files. I've tried updating everything uninstalling and reinstalling software is there some way to fix this.

Ah, sorry about that, this problems got me going crazy trying to figure it out. Heres some info, I store them ( the proj. file I'm working in) on my mac until im done with them, if I use video or audio its from a ext HD. I am running osX with an 2.6 i7 core and 8 gb of 1600  MHz DDR3 ram, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB. Thanks again!

  • After Effects Error message @ Startup, NEW Macbook NEED HELP

    So I'm working with a Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2012, I just bought it,
    Processor  2.6 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB
    Software  OS X 10.8.2
    Installed the most up to date CUDA Mac Driver: CUDA 5.0.37 driver for MAC
    After Effects was running fine -no errors at startup - when I didn't have the GPU CUDA enabled.
    I found out that the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB, is CUDA Enabled
    So, I installed the CUDA 5.0.37 driver for MAC
    I opened Terminal and ran a GPUSniffer to get the name of the Graphics card
    I opened another window in terminal and ran a "sudo nano" command that listed the default supported Cards, I pasted my card name.
    NOW I can choose GPU instead of CPU for Ray-tracing, WHICH IS GOOD, Its what I was trying to do. BUT something is still wrong because I keep getting an error message at startup: "After Effects error: Ray-traced 3D: Initial shader compile failed. (5070 :: 0)" 
    I DIDNT GET THIS ERROR BEFORE I INSTALLED & ENABLED "CUDA GPU"..............What is wrong?

    Don't manually manipulate that text file. That is unsupported, and you are on your own if you do so.
    What you should have done is to install the 11.0.2 update to add the GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer for your 650M:

    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.

    Has After Effects worked before? If it's worked before, what changed between then and now? Have you installed something or updated something?
    What is the exact version number of your After Effects? And before you say, "CS6", I mean the exact version number, such as 11.0.4
    What are the specs of your machine?
    And any other information you think might be useful to know.

  • What does "After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize PSL. ( 83 :: 8 )" mean?

    So, about a week ago I did a fresh install of 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate on a new PC, and subscribed to the Adobe Creative Cloud, installing After Effects CS6 and Photoshop CS6 from the Adobe Application Manager, then doing all updates (and I just checked right now at 10:35PM on July 26th, I have the latest versions of everything).
    After Effects was working completely normal, then just now, I tried to import a Photoshop .psd and I got the error message:
    After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize PSL.
    ( 83 :: 8 )
    Then After Effects crashed. So now it opens up normally, but when I try to import a .psd or open an After Effects project saved from an earlier version of After Effects (CS3 to CS5) I get the same error and a crash, every single time.
    Searching the forums, I see people talking about this error when importing .psds into CS5, and they say that getting the latest updates solved the issue for them (which obviously can't help me). I'm running all legit software on a brand new computer with 32 GB of RAM which has passed all my physical stress tests so I know it's not hardware related.
    The one thing I saw people suggest is to hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift when starting the program. When I do this, Windows asks if I want to allow After Effects to make changes to the system, and when I say yes, I can import .psds and open the older AE files. When I close After Effects and reopen it without holding down the Ctrl-Alt-Shift keys, it goes right back to crashing.
    Obviously the smart-*** answer is "then hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift, dummy", and I'll do that for now, but is there any clue what the problem is?
    I feel like kind of a chump because I decided to stop using my student versions of Adobe software (I haven't been a student for about four years) and pay the full price for the cloud membership and the latest creative suite, and it's full of bugs.

    Now, I get the same ( 83 :: 8 ) error listed above, followed by a new dialog window that reads:
    After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <4488> <DynamicLink> <5> C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
    Then, when I click OK, I get:
    After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. For After Effects Help and Support, go to http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_ae_support. If you still can't resolve the issue, please contact Adobe Technical Support (2).
    ( 0 :: 42 )
    Clicking OK to that gives me a chance to save the latest project, then the standard Windows 7 crash dialog window opens, the one that gives me the choice of "Check online for a solution and close the program" or just "Close the program" and lets me View problem details, which are:

  • After Effects error: Could not launch Adobe Analysis Server (515)   ( 25 :: 101)  *POSSIBLE FIX*

    Hi. Im New to the forums so sorry in advance if i do something incorrect
    Since my Purchase of Adobe CS6, I was not able to use dynamic link, or the plugins that required you to connect to the Adobe Analysis Server (3d Tracker, Warp Stablizer ETC) It would always give me the error
    After Effects error: Could not launch Adobe Analysis Server (515)
    ( 25 :: 101)
    Or if i would use dynamiclink
    The Importer created a generic error
    Through hours and hours searching through the internet, and trying possible fixes, i found possible fixes that might help people with this error.
    *Before attempting any of these fixes, make sure you reinstall CS6 Using the Adobe Cleaner*
    This guide is for Windows OS Only.
    If the error still presists, try these options
    -If your windows account is not a administrator, Run Adobe After Affects CS6 As Administrator
    -Disable your Anti-Virus and your Firewall
    I know you have probably heard this over and over again, but this is mainly the cause of the problem. Some Anti-Viruses even when disabled, go into some sort of one eyed open mode, where it still monitors your computer ever so slightly, so you may want to uninstall the anti-virus. As for the firewall,
    1) Go to your start menu search "Check Firewall Status"
    2)Then to the left of the window, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off
    3)Then tick "Turn of Windows Firewall" on BOTH Home or work network and Public Network.
    -Close and Uninstall filtering and spyware programs such as Netnanny and Premiere Opinion. This might be using the TCP Ports that is needed for After effects, dynamic link and adobe analysis server to communicate
    -Start up Adobe Analysis server Manually. This can be done by going to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS6\Support Files and running Adobe Analysis server.exe as Adminisrator, Then starting Premiere, After effects, etc.
    -If the Adobe Cleaner didnt already, Clean your registry. This can be done with free applications such as CCleaner.
    If none of those options work,  I would suggest a full format and reinstall of windows.
    I hope this would help people with this issue.

    You can download and install the latest version (and older versions) of versions 11, 12, and 13 from Adobe right now. That is why I was asking for the exact version number with decimals. Just the other day, someone said they were running the latest version and they weren't aware that CC was even a thing. They were running version 11.0.3 (which isn't even the latest version of CS6 - it's 11.0.4). That's why I always ask.

    I'm on a Mac so I don't have anti-malware, or other security software running.
    That doesn't seem like a good idea. While there can't be anything technically referred to as a "virus" on the Mac OS (due to the underlying structure), there can be (and are) malware variants out there that do attack machines running the Mac OS. As Apple products have grown in popularity, developers have been creating more and more malware aimed at OSX.
    I certainly hope you at least have your firewall running.
    captain_astronaut wrote:
    I tried launching Premiere yesterday and it crashed.
    This points to a much more serious underlying problem. Thousands (if not millions) of people are running Premiere and After Effects on Macs. What sort of error messages did you receive when it crashed?
    Try installing version 12 of AE and the previous version of Premiere as well and see if they run.

  • After effects error: unknown exception on frame 0 in 3D Camera Tracker. (1) (25 :: 16)

    I am getting this error code ( http://prntscr.com/2qbcro ) when i open a project i've been working on recently. When i press ok, everything that was in the project dissapears. I've tryed to open other projects with 3D camera tracker, and they works fine. I've also been trying to re-install after effects, but with no luck...
    I haven't been installing any new third party plugins lately.
    I tryed to import the actual AE file. It gives me the same error, but it is not starting up a new project, all the files that i've been using in the project is there in the project panel. But none of my compositions is open. When im trying to open them by double clicking on it, it comes up with a new error saying "After effects error: layer does not have a source (26 :: 335)" ( http://prntscr.com/2qdscz ) (Only some of the compositions is giving me this message, all the compositions where i've been using 3D camera tracker in it, is giving me the message) I'm trying to delete all the compositions that is giving me this error message, but when i've deleted some of them, and i'm trying to save the new project, my after effects crashes, and some new weird error messages is popping up, like: http://prntscr.com/2qdtsu & http://prntscr.com/2qdu67.

  • After Effects Error: rendering error while writing to file...Output Module failed - 1610153646

    Hi – I’m currently working with someone who is running After Effects 5.5v10.5.0.253 on a PC which is running Windows 7 Ultimate. The computer has just recently been built and the software is newly installed. (ie. a couple of weeks old, max). Up until now, we have been using After Effects with no real issues. But tonight, we started to see the following error message, when trying to render something out:
    “After Effects Error: rendering error while writing to file xxxxx. Output Module failed, the file may be damaged or corrupted -1610153646” – displayed during render, which meant the render failed.”
    We started to review forums to see if we could come up with a fix and tried a few of the more common suggested solutions, including:
    Make sure there are no third-party plug-ins or Windows incompatible elements installed - as it’s a pretty new install, we haven’t added anything except out-of-the box elements.
    Clear the render queue – did this, no change.
    Reinstall Quicktime – did this, no change.
    Reinstall Creative Suite – also no change.
    Check the default program to open .mov files is Quicktime – Quicktime was already the default.
    A bit more detail about the machine...
    Ram is 32gb
    GPU is GeForce GTX 660ti
    250gb soild states
    2tb raid drive
    Any help would be much appreciated. This is now happening on all AE files, even files that worked fine earlier in the week. Other than the AE and QT reinstalls mentioned above, nothing new has been added to the machine this week. On a deadline – so a quick response would be amazing, right about now. Thanks.

    Hi Mylenium- thx for the quick response. We have have tried a bunch of different settings. AVIs work and we can do image sequences too. The only major problem seems to be with Quicktime files. While I appreciate your suggetion to convert with AME - this is only a workaround. Was really hoping for a solution that will fix the problem in After Effects? Heard rumor from a few friends in the biz, that this is a major bug... if possible, some feedback from Adobe product devs or someone with a technical background would be great! Thx.

  • After Effects error opening sound componant (-2166)

    Hi
    Im  getting this error message( After Effects error-opening sound componant (-2166 )
    When i go to render a comp that icludes several sound files (WAV) the render stops 80% of the time.is there a way to fix this.
    Im rendering to Quicktime  based on losssles  or AVI based on lossless
    Windows XP service pack 3
    3 gigs ram
    quad core
    Quicktime pro latest version installed november 2009

    This could happen for any of several reasons, including the sound files using sample rates or a number of channels that After Effects can't handle. After Effects is not the best at working with audio. I recommend converting the audio files to another format (such as AIFF), ensuring that the sample rate is something standard, making sure that the files are just plain old stereo, and trying again.
