After Effects update and crash.

Dell xps
Windoes 7
intel i5
16 GB Ram
500 hard drive with a extra internal TB hard drive.
I am running AE CS6.
Whenever I try to preview render it will stop after about a 100 frames ish, so I can only preview a 100 frames at a time :/ This is so annoying!!
It seems to crash more then CS5 as well, but most of a projects are simple.
Also I have tried to update it but it keeps telling me the update server is down?
Thanks guys

It's not like a regular crash that instantly closes the program and has a "sorry, AE crashed" popup. It basically just freezes until the process is forced to quit.

Hi there, same problem here but on a PowerPC.
I just bought AE7 and installed it on my G5 (with then 10.3.7 running on it). Install went fine but the application would not start up.
Thought this might be a good time to clean up and installed fresh new system on this G5, updated it to 10.3.8 and first thing: installed AE7 again.
But: same problem. In fact, all Adobe application will not start up! The icon bounces a little and then nothing but a crash report.
For a moment I thought I had the solution, because I disabled all the "user fonts". Everything worked fine. Then I installed, as before, my Apple applications (Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro, etc) and, oh no... same problem over again. The Adobe application will not start up!
Tried to disable all non essential fonts: no cure. This is driving me crazy....
Any suggestions?

Fix for crash in After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 when Joesoft Hear audio enhancer installed

After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 both can crash due to a conflict with the Joesoft Hear audio enhancer.
We've just gotten confirmation from Joesoft that they've released a beta version of Hear that doesn't conflict with After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5. We're recommending that our customers who also use Hear install the 1.0.5b2 (build 490) beta version of Hear.
Let us know on this forum thread whether this solution works for you. We on the After Effects and Premiere Pro teams will monitor this thread for feedback, and we'll make sure that the folks at Joesoft get the information that they need, too.
When reporting back, be sure to let us know whether you've installed the Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) update and After Effects CS5 (10.0.1) update.

After 2 days trying to get AE and Premiere past the mediacore initialization message, I finally stumbled on this little message. Updating Hear definitely solves the problem!

After Effects CS6 and CC crash when Composition panel is closed, moved, switched w/ Layer panel, etc

Kind of hard to word the problem in a non-confusing way, but here goes. After Effects CS6 and CC will only work if the Composition panel is in its default spot in the Standard workspace, and that it's the only thing displayed there. No layer or footage panels can be opened - it can only be Comp or nothing.
In other words, AE is 100% certain to crash if:
- The composition panel is closed or moved to another spot in the workspace.
- A file from the project is double-clicked and opened as a layer/footage panel
- Any attempt is made to switch the Standard workspace to another
The crappiest thing about this is that I've searched Google using as many different phrases as I can and haven't found any discussion about this particular problem. It's as if I'm the only one on Earth who is having this issue.
It should be noted that After Effects CS5 does not have this problem on my PC, but I need CS6 or better because that's what we're using at work now. I can't work from home (as I need to do occasionally) if AE won't work properly.
System:
Windows 7 PC, 12GB RAM, Quad-core AMD Phenom II X4 965 @ 3.7 Ghz, ATI Radeon HD 6700 series GPU (1GB)

It's not like a regular crash that instantly closes the program and has a "sorry, AE crashed" popup. It basically just freezes until the process is forced to quit.

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.

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.

After Effects CC 2014 Crashing on Start-Up

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?
Edit: Spelling

After Effects CS5.5 crashes when selecting "Edit in Audition" (0::42)

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...

I just downloaded After Effects CC and I receive an error when opening

The complete error is:
I have just downloaded a After Effects CC and when opening it displays 'Last log message was: <140735240356624> <AppDirs> <5> Required Dir =
/Applications/Adobe After Effects CC/Adobe After Effects CC.app/Contents/Required.
Generating crash log, which may take a few minutes.'
Does anyone know how to fix this, I've been checking different discussions and people says its a Plugin error but I have just downloaded the new version and no plugin added.
Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanks, Juan Jose.

System info? How did you donload? Did you log-in to Creative Cloud?

Adobe After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 wont work on OS lion

I just bought a teacher Edition of Adobe Production Premium. I installed the softwares on my Mac which is running OS Lion 10.8.2. Everything works except Adobe After Effects CS6 and Adobe Premiere CS6. It always start up with the splash page then a pop up window opens that reads unexpected error occured send to apple.
I don't understand because Photoshop, illustrator and the other softwares worked fine.
I have tried uninstalling, re-installing, re-starting and even tried to download the After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 on creative cloud thinking that maybe those on the web will be more updated to address the issue.
But still I cant get it to work.
Please help.

After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.

Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house. It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service. Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen. It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device. I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream. Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it. Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
Thanks for the help!
