After effects gets stuck at 98% loading a file..... Needed to force quit over a dozen times

I've been working color grading about a minute of footage in AE, and imported that comp into Premiere Pro.
The color grading file was dealing with lots of different pieces of footage that make up the sequece. I need to open the AE file in order to render it, but it gets stuck at 98% loaded and freezes up. I've needed to force quit at least a dozen times. Is there a fix to this? Do I need to rebuild the file?
I work on a macbook pro with 16GB of ram and an i7 3.6Ghz processor so I should have no problem with these files. In fact, I also do work with an animation studio, and we work with large 5k image sequences plus digital faces plus other elemets, and their files are much larger.
Please help quickly! I'm on a deadline and can't proceed until this is fixed.
Thanks,
Bear
Oh, and if it helps at all, I'm using the CS6 version.

Does the AE project file open? Render out the clips, then quit AE. Import the clips into Premiere. Deadline met.
I'm on an HP Workstation with 24GB RAM and I wouldn't even think about trying to import an AE project file into PP for critical work.

After Effects CC 2014 fails to load Quicktime Components.

After Effects CC 2014 fails to load Quicktime Components and unable to export or render .mov, .mp4 or any type of quicktime videos.
The application will launch and I can create and edit projects and comps but I am unable to render any type of movie files. I can render images sequences.
I have the latest version of Quicktime (10.3) and Quicktime Pro 7. Please let me know what I need to do to get AE CC 2014 to render movies.
Thank you.

Kevin,
I’ve reinstalled Adobe AfterEffects CC (version 12.2.1.5) and am still having the same issue with the failure to recognize Quicktime.
Can you assist?

When i run keynote in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?, when i run key note in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?

when i run keynote in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?, when i run key note in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?

hello,
I had the same issue. This is what I was told to do.
iWork has to be removed completely to be effective when re-installing, you must use an application removal tool to do this or it wont remove every Keynote file.
Appcleaner   will do this and its free.
The following procedure has helped solve many issues with Keynote:
1 Close Keynote then use Appcleaner
2 Empty the Trash
3 Shut down the Mac, then restart and press the shift key immediately after the startup sound, then release shift when the Apple logo appears
          allow the Mac to boot up to the desktop, it will take longer then usual as the hard drive is being repaired
4 restart the Mac
5 Reinstall iWork
6 Repair permissions:
          Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility > First Aid:   click on your system disc in the drive column
          and select Repair Disk Permissions
7 open Keynote and test

After Effect error: Rendering error while writing to file

Greetings,
I'm a beginner and am starting to learn most of the basics but every time I try to render a specific type of composition, I get this massage:
After Effect error: Rendering error while writing to file "C:Users\Admin\Videos\720p.mp4".Unknown Error! (-1610153453)
RENDER SETTINGS:
LENGTH: 8min. and 30 sec
FORMAT:H.264
CODEC: mp4
RESOLUTION: 1280 x 720
AUDIO: 48.000 kHz, Stereo
OUTPUT LOCATION: C DRIVE (22GB FREE)
I got Windows Ultimate 64-bit and Adobe After Effect CS5.5 64-bit (both on C drive) installed in my laptop.
When I first installed after effect, I rendered a part of the whole composition (AVI, 720p) and it worked but after that when I rendered with
format H.264 it showed this massage. Then I tried to change it back to AVI. and rendered. again the same massage.
My C drive isn't full, I have 22GB SPACE AVAILABLE.
And when I try to save it on D (114GB free) or E drive (33GB free), It shows me the SAME MASSAGE.
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the replies,
unfortunately it's not the router. I usually switch on/off the router if I'm not at home. Therefore I have ruled out from the very beginning the router. And I'd rule out an upgrade of arch's packages as well. I installed->upgraded all packages after a fresh installation of arch, and then I started the configuration...
ewaller, nice "How to"
Cheers

After Effects: AEGP Plugin TIFFIO: UnExpected End of File (5027 :: 12)

I have a clown render for an animation I am working on (the content is not important). When I duplicate the first layer, flip it horizontally there are no problems when I run a RAM preview. But when I time reverse the layer I get this error message "After Effects: AEGP Plugin TIFFIO: UnExpected End of File (5027 :: 12)". Now in the past this meant that some of the tiff. renders had been corrupted due to copying and pasting the still frames into another folder using windows explorer. So to fix the issue I would simply re-render the still frames to the proper folder which meant I no longer needed to copy and paste the still .tiff files. But now whats different this time is that the error message only pops up when I use the "Layer, Time, Time-Reverse Layer".
This should work. I have done this exact animation at a smaller resolution (800x800). The only difference is now I have re-rendered the same footage at a higher resolution (1424x1424).
Anyone know what causes this issue?

It might be just one file in the sequence that's flakey and it only shows up with reversal, because you may never have actually sampled the frame in normal mode. This might also have shown up during render only, e.g. when rendering with fields would have sampled the frames at a different time. I'd re-check your sequence. As ´TimeRemapper said, it may also be an issue with teh options you chose for saving the TIFFs. In that case running it through an image viewer/converter like XnView or Maya's fcheck utilty might fix the problems...

After effects error: rendering error while writing to file. Disk full.

Hi,
I tried to render a video in AE CC 2014, with RGB + Alpha as I wanted to keep the background transparent (rotoscoped) so that I can then use it in Premiere.
I chose to export in Quicktime, with uncompressed 8bit.
After it rendered it for a little while I had a window pop-up saying
After effects error: rendering error while writing to file "E:...blabla". Disk full. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153463).
I read a thread posted in the forums but i do not understand the solution provided there.. What is a POD??
I have a Win7 Ultimate, x64. Plenty of disk space, and 16 Go ram.
Please help, I canoot go further in my project with this bug...

Is the drive you are rendering to formatted FAT32 by any chance? If so you can only render up to 4Gb for one file. Try rendering out a TIFF sequence instead. Litte tip - push the LZW compression tickbox in format options for a lossless compression, this will keep you file size way down.

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.

Appreciate your help Ian and others. I have since uninstalled FCS and reinstalled FCXP only to get the same thing. Loading FCXP stalls at "Looking for Compressor Support". When I first downloaded FCXP from the App store I didn't notice that FCS was being placed in it's own folder. It's not something I did manually. Although moved into it's own folder with FCXP on the same drive. I was not able to open FCS apps. They would load and then "quit unexpectantly". They opened just fine before I downloaded FCXP. Do I need to purchase Compressor so that FCXP recognizes it? It seems this is where it stalls. It doesn't explain however why my computer "FREEZES" while doing this. I am in the process of re-installing Lion to see if this helps, otherwise I am at a complete loss.

Mail application does not respond even after forcing quit over and over

My mail application is not responding. I have forced quit at least 5 times and I still get the beach ball. This just started happening 2 days ago and now I can't access my mail at all.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

When I try to open a file I created in Pages, I get this: "The required index.xml file is missing." This has happened many times and I have forgotten how I've worked around it.

That is wrong advice and you appear to have repeated it all over the forum.
All Pages files no matter what version have the same file extension, .pages, despite being radically different formats and that is the problem. The System does not distinguish between them when you double click on the file, it opens the first version of Pages it encounters.
You need to right click on the file and choose the correct App version for the file. Unfortunately there are no clues to tell you which is which.
If you are unhappy with this and the removal of over 100 features plus the problems with transmitting files across devices, servers and different versions of OS X, rate/review Pages 5.5.2 in the App Store.
