After Effects has started crashing when I scrub through timeline.

I've been working on an animation for several weeks and now, starting yesterday, whenever I scrub through the timeline the program crashes on me and gives several error messages. It seems to have started after I added a large image layer with motion blur enabled that moves pretty quick. But even if I turn off motion blur for the whole comp the issue still occurs.
Error messages are as follows:
After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking format plug-in “PNG”.
After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking rendering plug-in “AE_OpenGL”.
After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <6356> <ASL.ResourceUtils.GetLanguageIDFromRegistry> <0> Unable to obtain the User 'Language' registry key at: Software\Adobe\After Effects\10.5\ Defaulting to 'en_US'.

I am using After Effects version 10.5.0.253.
I have tried several troubleshooting steps such as updating my display drivers, disabling OpenGL in Preferences > Previews, Moving the Extensions folder out of my install, Recreating my preferences, Purging the cache, and even just uninstalling and reinstalling After Effects all to no avail.
Additional Details:
Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-Bit
CPU: Intel Core i7-2600 @ 3.40Ghz
RAM: 8.00 GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 with Driver ver. 320.49
Any help from the community would be greatly appreciated. I'm usually good at being able to research and resolve my own issues by this one has me stumped and my boss is on my case about the deadline.
Thank you.

While I did have OpenGL disabled in Preferences > Previews its seems I still had Fast Previews set to Adaptive Resolution - OpenGL off. I've switched this to just Off and now seem to be back on track. I believe I didn't have an understanding of what all "turn off OpenGL" truly meant. I'll continue working and report back wether or not I have any more issues related to this.
What would have causes this issue to appear in the first place? I've been working in AE 5.5 for about 2 years now doing a multitude of different projects but this is the first time I've run up against this issue. Is my hardware just simply underpowered?

    My iPhone 3Gs has started crashing when using apps once the battery gets down to around 80%. Sometimes it will reboot on its own, and other times you have to leave it for an hour or so and then manually turn the phone on again. Any ideas?

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes up again?

    What I'm trying to import into Audition is really heavily edited and saved as an .aep, but when I do the same with an untouched .mov file it works fine. So maybe it's a limitation of Audition/After Effects? I don't know.
    Also, a couple of things have been installed since I started the project, and I read in a thread that might be the problem. But before I go deleting anything I want to make sure the same thing is happening to me.
    Aside from this, After Effects works just fine, and so far this is the only error I've gotten.
    My setup is
    Acer Aspire
    Windows 7 64-bit
    4GB RAM
    Intel i5 processor
    Adobe Production Premium

    You're probably simply running out of memory to run both programs at the same time and otehr things like compressed audio/ video in the project may complicate matetrs further with hardware acceleration stuff. Not much you can do, most likely beyond the usual advice of making sure all your drivers are up to date...

  • Adobe after effect cs5 automatic crashes when im starting it up

    Hi
    First time ever im on this forum.
    Well i got a problem.
    Its like whenever i start up adobe after effect its just freaking crashes.
    And also 3 error windows pops up.
    Heres the first one:
    And i dont even know what that means.
    Something on Polish.
    Heres the next one:
    And heres the third one:
    That was all.
    Also the system im using is x64 windows 7 ultimate.
    And this just happend when i was making a montage and rendering it.
    It was really slow so i stoped the rendering process and whosh it crashed.
    It also sad that i could make an last save because adobe after effect crashed.
    So any ideas?

    Which format were you rendering it to? Was it a QuickTime codec?

  • Calendar has started crashing when switching to month view?

    I have an iPad with iOS 7.1.1. This morning the calender started crashing every time I went to the month view. It is fine in day view. Stranly, Planner Plus app is doing the same thing? It seems something that both apps use is causing it to crash.  Has anyone seen this or have advice.
    I am an Apple newbie. I have had my iPad for six months and my iPhone for two. I am still finding my way around the system.
    John

    James, I am not sure what you mean by signing in and out of those accounts? The Calendar cannot be deleted and reinstalled. I haven't tried to delete the Planner Plus one yet. I have a lot of notes in it that I really don't want to lose.
    I have talked with Apple and after trying a reset, they want me to wipe the pad clean. This will be the second time in the six months that I have had the iPad. I find it more than a bit frustrating when, I can't even just back up the data to my computer and reinstall it. I have done a backup in iTunes but, as I understand it, iTunes did not back up the 20 gbs of data, music, photos, and pdfs which are installed on the iPad through 3rd party apps like Bongiovi, Good Reader, and Docs to Go. 
    At the moment, I am sorry I bought into Apple's BS.  At least when Windows crashed, I had a full backup I could install. I don't recall these issues with my Android pad either. My experience with Apple so far has been mostly a PITA.
    Thanks for trying to help me James. I do appreciate it, even if I am put out with Apple right now.

  • FCPX has suddenly started crashing when trying to import media

    I updated FCPX to 10.0.8 a couple of weeks ago and everything has been fine until today (I'm fully updated with Mountain Lion as well) .  Now every time I try to import media, FCPX crashes. This occurs right after I hit the "Import Selected" button -- and occurs regardless of type of media, where I'm importing it from, or how many clips.  I get a very long error message -- I've attached just the first part of it (through Thread 0) below.  The entire error message runs through Thread 37.
    The only thing I did right before this happoened was to delete some old unused applications that were not even on the system HD (they were on a different internal HD - drive A).  The applications included very old versions of Final Cut and iMovie that had not been opened in a couple of years.  After I did this, FCPX suddenly started to recognize another internal HD (drive C) as a camera for the first time, and tried to import a bunch of old home movies, which it has never done before.  And ever since then it started crashing when trying to import new media -- even after I "ejected" drive C. 
    Any ideas?  I'm at a total loss and in the middle of a big project for a client, and could really use some help.  Thanks!

    I'th Mountain Lion as well.  *and FCPX 10.0.7

    Update: the problem is definitely with the internal HD "drive C".  Before restarting FCPX after the last crash I unmounted the C drive -- then restarted FCPX and was able to import media just fine.  I thought I had tried this already, but I guess not.
    So, what did I change with my C drive when I deleted the old apps off my A drive?  There is both an iMovie events and projects folder on the C drive -- but FCPX has never tried to import them until after I deleted the old iMovie app (I still have the most recent version of iMovie on my system drive -- but have never used it to open these old folders).  I read on another thread on this forum that if I "hid" these folders, FCPX would not try to recognize them, so I moved them to within another folder on the same drive -- but FCPX is still trying to recognize and show them when the Import Media window is launched --  and still shows the C drive as a camera.
    So, what can I do to stop this from happening?
    Thanks!

  • After Effects CS5 is crashing my Mac when I trim a clip

    I don't have much to explain this further but After Effects CS5 is crashing my Mac when I trim a clip.  It completely turns off my Mac when I trim a clip. The only other similar thing is Photoshop CS5 is also doing crashing my Mac when I resize large images.  Small images are fine but large 300dpi images crashes it without warning. Don't know what to do.
    I have 8gigs of Ram and am running 27" iMac Core i5
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Hal

    Are you running these two program together?
    I would think so.OK you are probably running them both as 64 bit that is great that they run 64 bit and can use more RAM and even better they actually do use more RAM.
    So the solution is probably more RAM, don't run them to together or lower the expectations of Photoshop and AE.
    That way they won't try to use all the RAM to do this work. It will probably do the wrk pretty fast but not as fast if you had more RAM maybe.
    Also AE and PS on an iMac, what about your scratch disk. Is it a very fast external drive and how is it connected?
    If you don't have a fast internal drive say with at least a 32MB buffer running at 7200rpm then there you go a real contributing ffactor.
    To be honest you need both more RAM and a fast start up disk and a fast external scratch.
    The new 2TB drives by Seagate run at 7200 rpm and have  64 MB cache which s as important as the rotation. You can possibly make a Raptor an external scratch as well at 300 GB they are probably not arge enough s a start up.
    Those are my thoughts.
    16 GB of RAM a larger faster internal drive lower the performance and memory setting as well.

  • HT201401 My iPhone3GS has started crashing. I'll be mid-phone call, or using an app, when the screen will go dark. I have to restart it. Then it shows low battery sign (even though it was 100%). Within 1 minute of charging, iphone starts. Pl. resolve.

    My iPhone3GS has started crashing. I'll be mid-phone call, or using an app, when the screen will go dark. I'll have to do a restart. It dumps to the warning screen that there's no power and needs to be plugged in.
    Once I connect the phone to a power source, in a couple of minutes it's ready to roll again, and displaying a "full battery" icon.
    The phone is almost always fully charged when this happens, and I don't get a crash when the phone is plugged into a power source.
    Took my iphone to apple store, they informed that battery is very good and there is no need for replacement. Might be there is a problem with iphone motherboard. But they can't repair it as my 3GS crossed warranty.
    Where should I go to repair this. Within 2 years...this 32GB 3GS is almost garbage for me with no support from apple. I am ready to send it to apple for repairs and pay the repair charges.
    I tried everything... deep reset ... factory settings .... nothing is working... Apple staff pl. take care of your customers ...

  • After effects has crashed see error repor 1.   :41

    hi okay on one of my computers i go to open after effects and it says after effects has crashed please see error report error 1 then later :41 then i go to uninstal it and it loads and stops it wont uninstal. please help.

    how you doing guys, i hope you have solved your problem,if not this is how i solve it most of the time...
    we all like fonts... alot.. sometimes we like it so much that we install every font we find kool, but after effects has a little bit of problem
    caching most of those kool fonts ( i have 3,037 ).
    what i did was booting my pc using HIREN'S BOOT CD in mini windows xp, download or if you have a backup of the basic xp fonts ( like me )
    go to your windows folder in c: and cut and move the font folder to other drive and replace it with the basic one, reboot and voila! it worked
    hope it helps. ;-)

    Did you apply the security update to this Mac & not the others? If you did, check Software Update again. Apple has released an updated security update. This has fixed the problems caused by the first version.

  • After Effects CC 2014 crashing on startup

    I downloaded the trial version of After Effects. By downloading it, it activated a 30-day trial. However, every time I try to start up the program, it gives me an error and crashes. I read on the forums issues about fonts and OpenGL, but it doesn't even give me detailed information on the crash. Anybody able to give me a bit of an assist on this? I use Adobe Design and Web Premium CS6 on my PC. I primarily use Sony Vegas for my video work, however I was sent a file on AE and rather than get in contact with the client to have them resend it in .veg, I figured I could download the trial and open it there. No such luck. I've finished the work, but now this AE issue is just bugging me. I am interested in trying it, but if I can't get into the trial, it really curbs my interest in the program.
    What exact version of After Effects? Include the minor version number---e.g., After Effects CC (12.2.1) or After Effects CS6 (11.0.4). Do not just say "After Effects with the latest updates" or "After Effects CC"; give the specific version number.
         After Effects CC 2014.2 (13.2)    (Creative Cloud says it is up to date, so I'm assuming it is 13.2)
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
         Yes. Creative Cloud says After Effects is up to date.
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
