Aftereffects CC (2014) hangs on mediacore start up Macbook Pro Retina then says QT not installed!

Running the latest MacBook pro with all updated under Mavericks and CC.
All other versions of Aftereffects work fine on the Mac CS6 and old CC run supper fast and don't say QT isn't installed.
Tried the Cuda core install experiment made no difference. (Power save on the Graphics card is off)
QT is definitely installed have all the extra mac pro codecs. (in a hope it would sort out legacy QT's not previewing in Mavericks Quick look....it doesn't...but that's Apple dropping whats not important to them, sod the actual end users)
Anyone else have this problem on a MacBook pro?
Hopefully it will get sorted.

Just to add, all permissions are fine for the [drive]/Users/[user_name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe/
If you look at the Aftereffects / version13 its been accessed and written to last time I tried to run cc 2014.

  • I tried to start my MacBook Pro over and It's not letting me install mountain lion so I am stuck on the old OS X LION screen

    I can't get past the installation screen of OS X LION. I have wiped the laptop clean and it won't let me install the new OS X mountain lion that I have already purchased

    Reinstall Lion as Barney has suggested, then download Mountain Lion. If you want a clean install, stop the Mountain Lion installation and then make a bootable drive. You can then erase the disk and make a clean install. Lion Diskmaker will build the bootable drive for you.

    Any help to get it started would be much appreciated!

  • Is it possible to virtually bypass the battery on a macbook pro (retina 2014) and power the mac directly via AC power?

    Is it possible to virtually bypass the battery on a macbook pro (retina 2014) and power the mac directly via AC power?
    E.g. Dell allows you to plug the laptop into AC power but prevent battery charging.
    Note: I do not want to physically remove the battery.
    If there isn't an option on Mac OS, is there anything I can download to bypass the battery when I want?

    Thanks for linking me! Wow I had no idea the clock speed would be cut so severely! What a bunch of rubbish, as if the AC won't provide enough power!
    I guess the only solution to my question would be an app which virtually disconnects the battery but tricks the mac into thinking the battery is still connected. I'm just surprised Apple haven't yet started to build prisons for the government - considering how well they lock up their software and hardware!

  • IPhone 6 Plus 64GB (iOS 8.1 or 8.1.1) springboard crashes repeatedly when making phone calls via Continuity on Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2014 using Yosemite 10.10.1

    I USED TO be able to make phone calls using continuity on my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) with Yosemite (10.10) via my iPhone 6 Plus on iOS 8.1 without any problems.  Once I updated Yosemite to 10.10.1, my iPhone's springboard would continually crash where it brings up the Apple logo and quickly restarts repeatedly until I end the call.  Just so that you know, I am able to stay on the call while this is occurring the whole time. 
    I need to reiterate, this all started happening as soon as I updated Yosemite to 10.10.1 while still on iOS 8.1.  I know this because I made a few phone calls (loving the feature), updated Yosemite to 10.10.1, then made a few phone calls afterwards, and this started happening. 
    When iOS 8.1.1 came out, I eagerly updated hoping this issue would go away, and it did not.  I'm hoping Apple notices this post.  If anyone else has this problem, please contact Apple and chime in this post as well.  Thank you Apple for incorporating continuity calling. I love this feature, but need to use it without my phone's springboard constantly crashing.

    I have this issue as well. I am using an iPhone 6 plus, iPad Air 2, 5K iMac, and MacBook Pro. When I make a continuity calls from any device, the springboard crashes. This only happens with outgoing calls, incoming calls are functioning normal. I am currently working with multiple Apple Senior Advisors, and they are working directly with iOS a engineers. I have an active open case and will update this thread when a resolution is found.
    Just a tip for everyone with this issue, restoring your devices and setting them up as new WILL NOT correct this issue. Save yourself the hassle. I did this with my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook and the issue still persists.

  • Macbook Pro Retina 2014 HDMI problems

    Hi,
    I'm new to the Mac world, so please forgive me if I'm overlooking the obvious.  I'm trying to connect my new 2014 Macbook Pro Retina to my VGA monitor via a HDMI adaptor.  I've used this adaptor without problems on my Lenovo laptop running Ubuntu.  However, when I connect it to the Mac, the Macbook display flashes, sometimes I see the display preferences and it correctly identifies the monitor, an old Acer wide-screen, flash up and it flicks between various resolutions and preference options; other times it just flashes and then goes blank (the only way I know to get back from the blank screen is to turn it off and on again).  Other times it just flashes and then does nothing, certainly in display preferences I don't see the other monitor and the other monitor is blank.
    I know the cable and monitor work, I can understand their being a resolution problem, the monitor is way less capable than the retina screen.  So, is there any way to tell the Mac to use extended mode instead of mirror mode from the start?
    Can I basically set-up the monitor and then plug it in, so it doesn't have to try and auto detect everything and have a heart attack?
    Also, it seems like all the failed attempts have stopped the Mac even trying to figure out what to do.  I have deleted the plist files, which I assume are the configuration files so it will try and figure out what to do again, but it just seems to have now succumbed to the fact it doesn't want to work with it.
    Any suggestions, very much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately the monitor is not available to be selected under Display > Colour.  When I have the display properties open, it does flash up a new window with the correct monitor and various resolution settings, but it is not possible to select one or do anything as the display keeps flashing and the cursor keeps jumping to the top left of the screen, then everything goes blank.
    The HDMI to VGA adaptor that I use is a CAMAC (not the best in the world I'm sure but has worked solidly with my Lenovo laptop and Unbuntu).
    The monitor I'm trying to connect to is a Acer AL1916W (again not a great monitor but has worked flawlessly with every over computer connected to it including the Lenovo with the HDMI adaptor).
    The Mac is defiantly recognising the monitor, it just can't seem to decide what to do with it, flashing up display property windows and swapping between settings before giving up and everything goes blank.
    Any other suggestions very much appreciated.

  • MacBook Pro Retina hangs while opening mounted share or USB drive

    I have a Macbook Pro Retina that I just updated to 10.8.2 over the past weekend.  Now, when I try to open a mounted SMB share or USB drive, the system hangs completely!  I had the system set to auto-reconnect my network shares, so when this started happening the system would hang right after login.  I was able to get in with Safe Boot and disable the auto-connect, so at least I can work now, but not being able to use a flash drive is really getting on my nerves.  Any ideas?

    I just ran a few tests to confirm my suspicion that this is a sleep problem for me and found that my rMBP will restart as soon as it has entered the sleep cycle.  Set it to auto sleep after 10 minutes and it will restart at 10 minutes, set it to sleep at 3 minutes and it will restart at 3 minutes.  Command it to sleep and it will restart.
    So for me at least there is a workaround and that is to set sleep to "never".  The display still sleeps but my mac keeps running.  So that's not a solution but it is a workaround, and if I want it to shutdown and not restart I either hold the powerbutton or take off the power cable and choose shut down from the dropdown menu (it won't restart on battery power, it'll just shut down).
    I hope that helps someone else!  And I hope it helps the engineers to diagnose and actually solve the very long running problem for us all..

  • MacBook Pro Retina hangs on startup when connected to Thunderbolt Display

    I have a MacBook Pro Retina and it's basically almost always connected to my Thunderbolt Display. Each time I start it up, I open the MacBook just slightly and press the power button - and almost instantly the MacBook goes ontop the startup Login screen and at this point is where I close the MacBook and login through the Thunderbolt Display.
    Since last night for the very first time - My MacBook Pro hangs on a white screen and takes a long time before going to the Login screen. I've tried to swith the Thunderbolt Display off from the mains - I've also tried to boot up my MacBook on it's own without it being connected to the Thunderbold Display and all is fine (it almost immediatelly shows the Apple logo and then staright onto the Login screen then BUT as explained, as soon as the MacBook is connected to the Thunderbolt Display and I power it up - it hangs on a white screen for about 30 - 60 seconds before it goes to the login screen!
    I have no idea how from one day to the next this could happen? Perhaps it's some Apple updates I've made recently which I cant really recall because I usually just update software when required to do so.
    Hoping anyone can help.

    Hello FunkTunes,
    I recommend this section of the article Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573.
    Check connections
    When using an external display be sure to check the following:
    If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
    Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
    Monitor and Display Adapter Table
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
    If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Macbook pro retina 2014 13" lag

    Hi guys,
    I've recently purchased a new Macbook pro retina 13" 2014 model with 8gb ram and a 256ssd. I have noticed that it lags quite a bit.
    When the login spashscreen is displayed with its animation, it lags there (like there isn't a proper graphics card) also when scrolling webpages in chrome, safari and firefox.
    The demo I had looked at in the store was all sweet. Is there something i should be looking at? i'm running maverick, will be upgrading to yosimite tomorrow (hopefully)
    What would you guys suggest/recommend? Should i be concerned?
    Thank you

    Hello,
    I just bought a new Macbook Pro OSX Yosemite this week. Retina, 15 inch, Mid 2014. 2.2 GHz i7. 16GB RAM. 256 GB HD. I've been noticing a lag when I use the trackpad and the bluetooth mighty mouse. It seems to happen completely randomly. If I don't use my computer for a long time and then start to use it again it sometimes lags for a second and then works, and then lags again, and on and on...
    Sometimes the lags are 2 seconds long and sometimes they're less than 1 second long. It seems my mouse, trackpad AND keyboard are all affected by this problem. I'm pretty upset, seeing as how I paid over 2 grand for this computer. Does anybody have ANY idea at all what is causing this AND what I can do about it?? I'm not a huge computer guy.
    The problem doesn't seem big enough to get a whole new computer. It seems like an Apple technician could fix this in 2 seconds. Wouldn't you agree? Please help. Thanks

    Try a SMC reset. It may allow you to start the MBP:

  • My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows).  The key behaves the same for the laptop keyboard and for an external Apple keyboard?  This just started in last week after 6 months of use

    My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows). 
    The left shift key behaves the same on the laptop keyboard and on an external Apple keyboard. 
    This just started in last week after 6 months of use.  The right shift key and other keys on the keyboard all appear to work correctly.
    Suggestions greatly appreciated.

    I have a solution to this issue now after a discussion with Apple Support.  Some where in the last few weeks, there was a change in the key that would do a Show Desktop under the Mission Control settings in the System Preferences.  Even though the key sequence that was shown for the Show Desktop setting did not include the Left SHift key, by changing this first to having no key sequence and applying that and then changing it back to the F11 key, the Left SHift key issue that I was having has cleared up.
    A second issue that was uncovered was that the SSD had some issues (uncovered when I ran Disk Utility using the Repair Disk key).  I had to restart and use the Disk Utility through the Command R sequence to get to the stand alone Disk Utility.  The SSD appears to be running better as a result as well.
    Hope that this is of use to someone else in the future.

  • Trouble installing Windows 8.1 on MacBook Pro Retina mid 2014

    Hi everyone
    I recently bought a MacBook Pro Retina (mid 2014, 15", 2.8GHz, 1TB SSD) and wanted to install Windows 8.1 on it via bootcamp.
    I have an official .ISO package of Windows 8.1 (it's x64, I checked), got it from MS Dreamspark as a student, and a valid serial number for it, of course.
    Burned the image on a 16gb flash drive via bootcamp and proceeded to install. When asked by windows installer which partition to install on, selected bootcamp and clicked 'format', as it was recommended to do in various instructions on the internet (as it wouldn't install without formatting, I tried). The installation went good and finished, but immedeatly after that the installer gave me a notification "Impossible to update computer loading configuration, installation cancelled" (maybe it's not exactly like that, translated as accurately as I could, I'm installing windows in Russian).
    I tried it twice, each time re-burning the installation drive. Got the same error each time.
    All the software (OS X, bootcamp, etc.) is up to date, the macbook shouldn't have any problems as it was bought just a few days ago.
    How can I solve this problem?

    yes sorry if it ruin the ending of one of the youtube clips you will be witching if you have problems as how you install windows in bootcamp

  • MacBook Pro Retina (Mid-2014) Cannot Boot Camp

    Hi all,
    I'm running OS X Yosemite (10.10.2) on my MacBook Pro Retina 13" (Mid 2014). I have tried to boot camp the machine but it's not working. After boot camp assistant has created the Windows 8.1 installation disk and saved all the drivers and software onto my thumb drive, it will then request for me to choose the size of the partition. However at the last step when I click the "Install" button, my computer will restart and boot into OSX. In Disk Utility the BOOTCAMP partition is there, but in System Preferences BOOTCAMP is not listed as a Startup Disk. I have tried to restart the computer while pressing the option key, and startup manager appears. However under startup manager only Macintosh HD is recognised and my BOOTCAMP partition or windows installation USB both do not appear. I have tried to create a partition manually in Disk Utility and open Startup Manager again to install windows from my thumbdrive, but again both thumbdrive and windows partition do not appear. Please help.
    Thanks.

    Since you have a Mid2014 MBP, the USB should contain the Windows installer and BC drivers. Make sure your USB is a USB2 flash drive/disk. USB3 will fail.
    There should be no hubs between the USB and the MBP and no other external peripherals connected to the Mac.
    However at the last step when I click the "Install" button, my computer will restart and boot into OSX.
    This indicates that the Mac cannot find the USB with Windows ISO and BC drivers.
