After Effects won't import any animation presets from Bridge.

I just installed Creative Cloud.  It seems to be working fine, except that when I try to apply Animation Presets into After Effects through Bridge, it gives me an error message saying "Can't import file xxx.fxx: unsupported filtype or extension"
I'm not trying to import a "file" or anything.... simply trying to apply an animation preset to a video clip on an AE timeline.  Never had any issues doing this with CS5.  Anyone know what's going on?
Thanks

See this thread:
Re: Using bridge within AE 2014.  Going through lessons in classroom in a book.  All of a sudden can't apply any presets.

  • Problems using Animation Presets from Bridge

    Dear all,
    Using the CC range, and recently had a new problem using the animation presets from Adobe Bridge. I'm in After Effects as normal, and then go to the Animations drop down, click browse recent presets to open up Bridge, and then as normal use Bridge to select the preset I want. Double click it whilst highlighting my selected track in AE, and then AE reports this:
    And the same error codes no matter what effect/animation I choose, whether its to an image, video or text.
    If I just go, in AE, to my Recent Animation Presets, and choose one from there it loads up absolutely fine. But this is massively annoying.  Any ideas? This problem appeared out of nowhere.

    This is fixed in the After Effects 2014.2 (13.2) update, which is now available.

  • After Effects Won't Import ANYTHING!

    So I just got After Effects ( which I was REALLY looking forward to! ). However, after installation, I tried importing a few different video files, all with the same problem... AE8 crashes! It won't even import pictures! Anyone got any ideas?

    Application Data is a system directory and should by default other programs to write data at the system level. You can verify so by checking the directories properties. Right-click, choose "Properties", then go to the security tab. There should be an entry called "SYSTEM" and it should have full access. if that's the case, then the only thing I can think of is some security tool (virus scanner, firewall) having a hold over the directory and files. Temporarily turning of this tool or adjusting its surveillance settings to not monitor certain file types and directories should allow you to rectify the issue. Perhaps such a thing was even the initial reason for your troubles...

  • After effects cc 2014 importing any files

    My first time creating a discussion,
    Since Yosemite update or possibly the last but one AE update, Im experiencing import issues. It seems to allow one import (of any file) and then the next time you use import it doesnt bring up the finder window. The same happens with replacing files.
    The only get around Ive found is to drag and drop all imports! far from ideal and means replace functions dont work at all.
    Anyone got a remedy please? delete preferences maybe..
    thanks

    What, exact, version number of AE CC 2014 is this you're using?
    What exact OSX version number are you using?
    Have you tried deleting preferences or any other troubleshooting steps? If so, what?

  • IPhoto won't import any more photos from Nexus One

    I haven't been importing files for some months, and now I notice it doesn't work anymore.
    Last time I did that and it worked I probably had Android 2.1 and OSX 10.5, now I have Android 2.2 and OSX 10.6, so either OS could be at fault.
    I mount the SD card, it mounts successfully, iPhoto (8.1.2) opens and detects the SD card, but it doesn't show any photo. Yes there are photos, they are new, and even if I uncheck "hide photos already imported" it's still empty.
    The photos are located in /DCIM/Camera

    I have the same issue. Definitely broke with an iPhoto update. See here:
    http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-help/11644-mac-users-photos-no-longer- show-up-iphoto-9-ilife-11-a-3.html
    "Figured out the Problem, Attempting a solution
    I am having the same issue, and after reading this whole thread I did some tests.
    The phone is not the culprit; I copied ALL of the files from the phone card to a standard SD card and placed it into my card reader and got the same result (iPhoto not working, as described in this thread).
    I then deleted all of the folders/files that were not one of the following:
    the DCIM folder
    standard system folders (normally hidden), like .Trahes, .fseventsd, etc.
    iPhoto worked with the phone files after that.
    Based on this, it seems that iPhoto cannot read the card if it has more than one folder, and since the Android OS requires other folders, this is keeping it from working.
    So then, with the phone still plugged in, I made a new "virtual disk" (just a small disk image with Disk Utility) and in it I created a symbolic link named DCIM pointing to the DCIM folder on the phone. (For those that don't know, a symbolic link is similar to and functions like an Alias, but its compatibility with the system level is better than an Alias, making it more transparent.)
    Mac supports Folder Actions, running scripts in response to changes in folder contents. I am working on a script that will watch the /Volumes folder for newly inserted disk drives. When one is found, it will search for a DCIM folder. If it has one, then it will see if there are other folders. If there are other folders (which will keep iPhoto from working), then the script will generate a small disk image, mount it, then create a DCIM symlink pointing to the DCIM folder on the non-working drive.
    When all is said and done, iPhoto will be able to read the virtual disk, and the symlink will reroute all changes back to the real phone disk as if the disk image weren't there. Thus, it will be usable again. Downside is iPhoto shows two disks, one for the non-working phone and one for the disk image, but it works. I have tried it all manually, so all I have to do is write the script. Hopefully I can finish it."

  • QuickTime Files rendered from After Effects won't open

    I currently have QuickTime version 7.6. Files that I download from elsewhere or that I view in the FireFox plugin online play just fine. However, files rendered from After Effects CS3 (I prefer MPEG-4 codec, but I just tried and Sorenson 3 won't do it either) will not play in FireFox's plugin and they won't open QuickTime when I double-click them in Explorer. They will only open in the QT player if I already have the player open. Otherwise, I have to open them in VLC. I much prefer the QT player and I don't want to have to open it first to view my files. Any thoughts on what's going wrong here? This has only started in the past month or so.
    Other people can view the files just fine, it's just my computer. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a few times now and have updated my video drivers, to no avail. I've also installed Avast! Antivirus and run a boot-time virus scan, but no lick there either.
    Error signature from Windows:
    EventType : BEX P1 : QuickTimePlayer.exe P2 : 7.60.92.0
    P3 : 496279cc P4 : QuickTimePlayer.exe P5 : 7.60.92.0 P6 : 496279cc
    P7 : 0000130d P8 : c0000409 P9 : 00000000

    I wouldn't have a clue from here on, it could be anything. The key would be, if you could recall what changes were made to the computer during the time the problem surfaced. I'm not familiar with After Effects C3S but I'd disable it from loading at start-up if it does, and try QT again, but that's just a pure guess, based on the EventType error numbers, that are somewhat familiar with memory load

  • Lightroom 4 won't import any of my files

    Hi,
    I have been using Lightroom 4 for about 4 weeks now with no problems importing files. I have the Canon 5D 3 and to start with I was converting the files to Dng and importing them from the hard disk, then when the 4.1 candidate was released I downloaded that and was able to Import straight into Lightroom.
    As from yesterday I can not import anything into Lightroom at all. I have tried going back to converting to dng and importing from the hard drive, I then tried to import some jpegs still no and I have tried files from my 7D with different memory cards to rule out any conflict here but still nothing. I have un-installed and re-installed the program with no success, I just get a box saying "These files have not been imported because they cannot be read" but with no more explanation why.

    Won't IMPORT any files!!! Have deinstalled and re-installed LR CC, downloaded the latest DNG converter, used that to convert my Canon 1D X files to DNG, tried to import those DNG files, error. Error reads as follows:
    Import Results
    Some import operations were not performed.
    The following files were not imported because the could not be read. (383)
    Suggestions anyone? Thank you!

  • IM 4.0.1 won't import any sound fx or mp3...Anybody know why?

    Just started having this problem when I really need to use iM. The program has no problem with recorded sound, but won't import any sound at all. Hmmmmm.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    the installer keeps saying the program is running when it isn't and won't begin reinstallation.
    Open Activity Monitor and force quit iTunesHelper. Then you can install, but it probably won't help.
    It says the disk is 'locked' or full - which it isn't.

  • Does Bridge CC have more text animation presets then Bridge CS6?

    so I upgrade from CS6 to CC and did not install Bridge CC. Then while in After Effects CC I try to view the text animation presets, but window informs me I do not have Bridge CC installed. I then download and install Bridge CC and view the animation presets, but seem all the same as Bridge CS6 has.
    My question is - Does Bridge CC have more text animation presets then Bridge CS6.
    Is there another procedure to acquire more? Did I click past something on my first launch of Bridge CC?

    My question is - Does Bridge CC have more text animation presets then Bridge CS6.
    Best try this in the After Effect forum, to my knowledge not many AE users are here at a regular base. Besides that, every suite version has its dedicated applications to work together in that suite, CC is no exception to that so for best practice use Bridge CC.

  • Ipod Nano won't play any songs downloaded from MySpace pages...

    My first generation Nano was initially sent back to Apple due to the battery losing it's charge to quickly. They sent me back what appears to be a replacement Nano and now this one won't play any songs downloaded from MySpace pages of bands, shared from friends (unprotected mp3 files) or otherwise downloaded from the internet.
    Whats unusual is that any songs imported from a CD to the Nano play fine as do any songs purchased from iTunes. I know Apple has stated that any files the user wishes to play on their iPods will play as long as the format is compatible. (All of these songs in question played on the original Nano and the problems started when they said they fixed it and sent it back (although it is missing the engraving which to me indicates they gave me a refurbished Nano). My Applecare runs out in mid-October so I need to figure out what is wrong. I sent it back a second time and they told me they couldn't recreate the problem so they just updated the software and sent it back.
    Someone suggested that some iPods have a part of the firmware activated (which Apple may have been testing) that prevents any non-ITunes store music or music no t off an original CD to fail to play.
    When attempting to play downloaded songs from sites like Purevolume and MySpace the iPod plays for a few seconds then shuts down and restarts itself, all of these songs worked fine before Apple took it in for service.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello,
    I have exactly the same problem. It`s so annoying.
    I did a little bit research on this discussion board and this problem seems to be known for quite a long time. It`s confusing me Apple is not able to fix that prob or give customers quick introduction to resolve the prob.
    I am currently on vacation in Florida and just bought the new iPod 30 Gig. I transfered already songs from my music cd. That worked fine.
    I bought 2 music video files, synced them with no error to the iPod, but it only shows me a black screen when I want to start the video on the iPod itself. itunes plays the files with no problem.
    Any ideas how to fix it??

  • Import Saved Document Presets from older PS to PS CC 2014

    Is there a way to import saved document presets from older versions of Photoshop into Photoshop CC 2014? I have a fair amount of document presets I use almost daily and it'd be a pain to have to enter all of them again to save them.

    If you create an action set with just the one action and save the set upload the uploade it to the web and post a link to the .atn file we can download the action and test that on our machines.  You will get feedback from both Mac and PC users. It sound odd that it would work once then fail the second  time. Was Photoshop CC 2014 up before you used bridge menu tools>photoshop>batch the first time or was Photoshop started because you used tools>photoshop>batch.  If is was not up did you try closing PS down before the second batch?
