All 3rd Party PlugIn Pref's get reset after InDesignCrash

AdobeInDesignCS 6
Steps to reproduce
1. Install third party plugins
2. Create Preference Settings
3. save and quit out of InDesign
4. launch InDesign, Verify pref settings.
5. Force Quit InDesign
6. Launch InDesign/Verfiy pref settings and they will not be there.

Well, now it's official, thanks to 3rd party apps and/or faulty system software my iPod is Dead.
When I created this thread I was having all 3rd party apps crash constantly, and instantly upon launch. The myriad of methods used to recover it to working order failed. I decided to do a Restore and use the last successful backup. It got to about the 95% mark on the restore and hung for 2 hours. The exact same place for 2 hours.
Not having the ability or patience to wait for my iPod to get done tying up my computer, I reset it. Now, all I've got is a $299.99 Paperweight that constantly displays a nice and shiny apple logo on it's screen.
An attempt to restore it to factory settings only gave me an error dialogue box:
The iPod "Kuhnaydeein's iPod" could not be restored.
An unknown error occurred (0xE8000035).
Now what am I supposed to do? I don't live near an Apple Store, the only place that sells apple merch is the store where I work, in the department I work. I know our policy on taking back/exchanging iPods.
What I've failed to mention is how I'm EVER going to sell one of these to someone if there's a chance they'll just be getting the same FAULTY Hardware/Software I'm now stuck with? Is Apple going to come to the rescue, read this post and replace my iPod? I sincerely hope they read this, because they don't give the slightest hint at any Direct Email addresses on the Apple.com website. (What's with that anyway?)
So what do I do now? RESTORING IS NOT AN OPTION.

  • Disabling all 3rd party plugins on an OSX user?

    Hey there,
    Long time no see. I'm rolling out a college motion graphics program and have hit a snag on our computer configuration. We have individual OSX user logins for each class and are using the CS5.5 Production bundle. We have a few 3rd party plugin packages installed (such as Trapcode Suite, Keying Suite, Magic Bullet Suite, etc.) and I would LOVE to disable/hide those on the account for the intro class.
    Are there any straight-forward options that I'm not thinking of? I've done lots of searching but am not coming up with much.
    Thanks!!!
    -steven

    Just for fun I moved my Trapcode plug-ins from the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/MediaCore directory to a new folder under my Rick User account I called AdobePlugins.
    I changed the premissions of this folder so that other users would not be able to see the folder by setting no access for everyone. I then created an alias for the Trapcode plug-ins and moved the alias back to the original location. I then switched users and it worked. No access to the trapcode plug-ins from the other user.
    This was on a Mac OSX Lion 10.7. It's kind of a hack, and the uninstallers and installers won't like it much, but so far it seems to be working. I don't know if something like this would work for Windows, but I do know that Aliases work there too. Give it a shot at your own risk.

  • Cannot figure out how to get 3rd party plugins to load

    Hey All.
    I'm attempting to use 3rd party plugins (specifically, ValhallaFreqEchoMkI 1.01), and I cannot figure out how to get them to show up in MainStage (ver 3.0.4). I know how to use native plugins as chanel strips and in the Audio FX section on the strip, but I cannot figure out how to ACCESS the patches I have downloaded. Please help!
    -thanks, Jim

    All,
    To turn on the CMSS features. The sticky at the top of this (Sound Blaster) forum covers the steps on how to enable surround sound effect or you can check out the Knowledgebase article for the steps.
    For those with PlayCenter software, you could check the Extigy as example.

  • How can i get 3rd party plugins for logic such as massive or nexus?

    how can i get 3rd party plugins for logic such as massive or nexus?

    Buy the 64bit AU versions from their respective online stores...
    Massive can be found at;

  • Cineform and other 3rd party plugins for Creative Cloud, what happened to them?

    Hi I don't want to panic but I just downloaded Adobe Premiere CC and it's telling me that I've rendered my previous project with a 3rd party plugin that isn't available. What is the process of installing my 3rd party plugins to premiere so I can edit with Blackmagic codecs, Cineform, and multiple others I have enjoyed using in CS6.

    I followed the instructions from the Cineform site as given by scarolan_CS4 (thanks for that).
    http://support.cineform.com/entries/24336007-A-Do-It-Yourself-Guide-to -adding-CineForm-support-in-Adobe-CC-Windows-
    Works like a charm.
    The only issues I have are:
    Cineform plugs (except for levels) don't work. But they didn't work on CS5.5 and CS6 either - plus cá change.
    I'm getting the 'saving metadata' when closing PP error back - I'd forgotten how I'd dealt with that, switched something off in prefs, if I remember (more internet searching!) This wasn't happening before I copied the Cineform directories to their CC locations, so I suspect it's related in some way.
    The editing presets and the rendering presets all work fine.
    ======================================
    I've also had good luck with other 3rd party plugins. I created a junction type link from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\CS6\MediaCore to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\7.0\MediaCore. The default mediacore directory is empty so this works, but I copied across 3rd party directories and files in the individual plugin folders for PP and AE as there are default Adobe files in there which may be different from CS6 to CC.
    Note that I also created a junction from Photoshop 64 plugins for CS6 to CC and this also works a treat.
    Just thought I'd mention it to show that it can work, I'm chuffed that it does as I was anticipating a system OS install to enable plugins to work and to keep 15-20% of my system SSD free.
    If this junction stuff is too complicated (and you don't mind having two sets of the same files or deleting the older versions) just copy the plugin and relevant settings files instead. I assume this will work, although I haven't specifically tested it myself.
    You can find free utilities to create junction links for Windows or this can be done via the command line. I forget the name of the utility I use, it works via the context menu. I have found that junction tends to work better than symbolic linking or other types of file 'aliasing' for most of my fumbling about with this solution.
    This stuff sounds more complicated than it is, once someone has given the steps to take and you have installed the junction/symbolic linking utility it's just a matter of following the steps.
    EDIT - I (re-)found the solution to the
    Metadata. Metadata writing in progress (n files pending)
    error -
    Go to Edit>Preferences>Media and uncheck Write XMP ID to Files on Import (thanks to Jim Simon on this forum for this).

  • All 3rd party apps Crash - Already Restored FIVE Times to date - Apple fix?

    Since the 2.0 update my apps have had constant crashing issues. Usually after opening 8 or so apps in a row (very easy to do when downloading and testing many apps) ... Powering down and powering back up usually helped/fixed the issue, if temporarily.
    Now, since 2.0.1 I've had times when one app will crash to the home screen, and from that point on ALL 3rd party apps immediately crash. Powering down the iPod, and powering back up does not fix the problem. Resetting the ipod (Sleep and Home buttons held) does not help either. I've also tried just Syncing the ipod, but this, alas, does nothing to help.
    When it's come to this in the past I've had to do a complete iPod restore, which if it weren't just for the time taken restoring, the time taken re-arranging the icons/screens puts the process into the realm of a major pain. But having a way to assign apps to a particular screen on the ipod/iphone within iTunes is a topic for another thread.
    Is there a way around this (crashing issue) that I'm just not seeing?
    I'm tired of being and eff-ing guinea pig; this is not why I'm an apple user, this is one of the reasons I make fun of Windows people and get them to switch TO apple.

  • 3rd party plugins not working after archive and install

    hi,
    i have a few 3rd party plugins in my logic pro, such as all the native instruments, waves diamond, ik multimedia plugins, atmosphere and a few more,
    i was getting an error on my g5 when i tried to run diskwarrior from the disk. it was the kernal panic message, it said i had to restart my mac, therefore i couldnt run diskwarrior from disk.
    i did a bit of research and a few people suggested doing a archive install, so i did.
    well what do you know, i had to re-install logic 8 again. other programmes such as transcribe, itunes idvd imovie etc were ok.
    but logic didnt load up, o i had to re-install logic again,
    also before i did that i checked to see if my 3rd party plugin were working in standalone, so i check all the native instruments and they seemed to work ok, T-racks deluxe works fine, so i thought they should all load up in logic.
    once logic was installed again and had to get all the updates all my 3rd party plugins did not show up on my AU validation.
    is there a way to get logic to see my 3rd party plugins or do i have to re-install all of them again.
    cheers for the help
    lib

    Then check if the NI AU components are actually where they should be:
    HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
    If not copy them over from your "previous systems" folder which was created on your HD during the archive and install process.

  • Standardise definition & selection method for ALL third party plugin presets!!!

    Over at LogicProHelp there is a very useful topic relating to Logic presets - in which many users have spent time saving individual third party plugin settings as LOGIC presets... which is enormously helpful when selecting instruments etc because they can be selected using a keystroke etc and found within the Logic Library browser window - which is of course searchable!
    These presets have then been uploaded to the forum for others to download.
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=367267#367267
    I posted on the topic recently and thought it worth mentioning over here on the Apple forum.
    Here's what I said - does anyone agree/disagree? Is this something that Apple should work on? For me it's a no brainer but I'd like to know what others think....
    "MO 3rd party instruments that rely on mouse-clicks or anything more than one button press to change a preset are incredibly badly designed. It's massively frustrating and impedes creative flow to have to use a mouse, or press several keyboard buttons just to move from one sound to another. Native Instruments interfaces are amongst the worst offenders - you even have to MANUALLY specify what presets you want to use with specific MIDI Program Change messages - because the latter are the only way I know of using anything other than the NI interface to change sounds in their plugins.
    The Logic Channel Strip settings saved along with 3rd party Plugin settings saved as Logic Presets have proved a recent revelation for me.
    Now I can change instrument presets using a keystroke, a midi message, almost anything I want.
    And then there's the Logic Library browser - now that so many sounds are saved as Logic Presets, the Logic browser window has become really powerful - being able to search my entire library for "bass" or a particular instrument name - REGARDLESS of which third party plugin is required to play the sound - IT JUST LOADS AND PLAYS!
    Maybe I'm in the minority but I think of a sound I want first, NOT which instrument I should load and then browse through - the latter is kind of backwards for me.
    I really think that we users should pressure Apple and plugin developers to provide Logic (and indeed other DAWs) presets with ALL of their products because the amount of effort on their part is minimal compared with countless end-users doing this task manually over and over. The current situation is ridiculous.
    DAWs are incredibly powerful these days but the lack of a plugin preset/sound library definition standard is quite crippling to work flow.
    I mean if there were a STANDARD LIBRARY DEFINITION such as with Native Instrument libraries or Apple loops where sounds are defined universally and supplied as such in a common preset it would revolutionise sound discovery/selection within DAWs.
    Kind of like a document management system that applies to ALL plugins, by ALL developers and the installer for a plugin would then add all its presets to the management system/common library"

    Sid Merrett wrote:
    Can you give me an example of a plugin that doesn't work with the Logic save preset function?
    Sure, I could give you lists of plugins for each of those particular scenarios I addressed.
    In that specific case, for one example, Spectrasonics instruments for a few years did not support the hosts' save/recall settings function (at least in Logic), and when contacting them and asking why Stylus RMX could not recall settings saved via Logic's preset system I was given the explanation that it wasn't supported for technical reasons.Basically, it only save/recalled a small handful of settings, the rest were lost, meaning it was impossible for quite some time to use the Logic's save/load settings feature to save user presets, you had to use the plugin's own internal save features. (Yes, the instrument's state was saved in the song, but *wasn't* able to be saved via the preset handling, for technical reasons).
    A year or so later, and later Logic versions, they finally got round to making it work as the varioous parts of the host and instruments were upgraded to handle larger data requirements. Spectrasonics instruments are examples of instruments with very specific, custom browser features, many of which you lose if you save data using Logic's functionality - not to mention the effort of saving, naming and organising 8000+ patches per instrument. Plus you have many levels of data - you often load a loop into a part, and a part into a group of parts, and they are different types of data. The hosts save/load feature only saves the state of the plugin - it can't be used to load Loop 14 into part 2, for example. It's the whole plugin, or nothing. More workarounds in terms of how you organise your loading/saving of different types of data.
    There are other instruments too, and ones I've beta tested where I've got into the technical details and had to have the preset format changed or simplified because hosts had difficulties storing the data correctly. It's quite a complex thing, in the main, and different instruments implentation of preset handling mean that the whole thing is full of workarounds, compromises, or plain failure to use the feature completely.
    Other instruments, such as Minimonsta, lose functionality when saving via the host - for example, you only get the meta patches and patch morphing functions when saving via the plugin's own file format, and that stuff doesn't happen when saving via the host.
    I could go on and on about this - every develop has different requirements and they mostly all either do it very basically and rely on the host, or bypass the hosts save/load functionality and implement their own which they can be in control of and that will work across hosts and across platforms. For instance, there is little point having a beautifully organised Oddity library if all those sounds are now unavailable to me if I choose to work in Live...
    That's why the whole preset thing is a complicated mess and isn't liable to be sorted soon.
    There is a developer over on the PC trying to make a system to unify this stuff between plugins - it's PC only right now, and I forget the details this second, but it's acknowledgement that people recognise this whole thing is a mess and looking at ways to improve the situation.
    Sid Merrett wrote:
    I hadn't spotted that - thanks. You can't use the Logic Library window to search for Plugin Settings, only Channel Strip Settings.
    You *can* use it to search for plugin presets, but only within the context of a single plugin. Ie, if I select the ES2, I can see, and search, the ES2 plugin settings. But often I want "a bass sound", I don't necessarily know that I was an "ES2 bass sound", or a "Minimonsta bass sound" or whatever.
    The point being, I just want a sound that will work, and I don't know where it will come from. Forcing me to choose and instrument first can be counter productive. How many times have you needed a sound, and you go "Ok, there might be something in pluginX that'll work?" - you load up pluginX, flip through the sounds, don't find anything useful, then go "Ok, let's try pluginY", no... pluginZ etc etc
    I miss Soundiver in many ways. *Ideally*, I'd like one central method of storing my presets which will work cross-plugin, cross-host, cross-format and cross-platform that is a standard that all developers and hosts support, and that offers the main core features that developers need, from simple, single patches with names, up to full meta data, cataloging, organising, author and notes tagging and so on. You can still give the users a choice to use the individual plugin and individual plugin's gui for patch selection, but you can get far more standardised if you want, with the advantages that gives - and you don't have to export patches into the system, as it's developer supported, all presets for your instruments would be instantly available in the library, just as they are in the instrument directly.
    But it's difficult to get developers to agree on much, these days - the most likely thing to happen is someone somewhere creates a cross-platform standard for this that gains momentum and that developers and hosts want, or *need* to support.

  • Crashes with 3rd party plugins

    I am loving the functionality of MS, but these crashes are getting really embarrassing, especially amongst my PC loving band members. I have the new unibody MBP with 4gb ram. Everything is great and solid while performing. I never get any clicks or pops while playing. All of my crashes occur when changing patches within a concert. It does seem to be more directly related to the patches containing 3rd party plugins, such as Kontakt 3, or Kore 2. It also seems to be only the sample based patches.

    Ok, so it looks like there are problems with the new MBP's running more than 3GB's of ram. If I pull out my 2x2gig sticks and put in the original 2x1gig sticks, it runs fine and never crashes. I bought the ram from OWC. I will be sending it back, but in the meantime I am not sure that I trust their ram. It is made (or distributed) by Nanya. I don't know if the problem is with the ram, or if it is a problem with NI product running in Mainstage, or if it is a problem with the new MBP running 4gigs of ram. We shall see.

  • Sort 3rd party plugins by categories

    Hi there,
    If this has already been asked, my apologies, I haven't found an answer to it using the search engine.
    Is there a way to sort 3rd party plugins by categories, like Logic's built-in plugs (Compressors, EQs, Delays, Reverbs, etc...)?
    It would be much better to search the plugins by category than by manufacturer name, don't you think?
    Again, sorry if this is an old question.
    And thanks in advance.

    The problem with organising your plugins into channel strips is that it works fine to load the complete channel strip, but obviously cannot be used to load individual plugins on a channel.
    I would like to be able to organise/customise my plugin menu in the way that best suits me, including not having to scroll all the way down to the third-party list and so on - I agree that this way of loading plugins is pretty inefficient.
    Unfortunately, while this is technically easier using a Mackie Control (because you can scroll through the plugins with a knob before clicking it to load that selected plugin) - it's also next to useless because the plugin list is seemingly random, meaning that each time you scroll to a new plugin, you have no idea whether this is going to be the one you want, or whether it will take another 53 knob turns before you get there.
    The library is supposed to be the redeveloped solution for this, and while it helps to a degree I actually don't like wasting a quarter of the available screen space having it open, or hitting a key command to open and close it just to load plugins. But you can't load individual plugins from the library anyway - it's either channel strips, or plugin settings/instruments. There is no way to highlight the plugin slot and then see your plugin list - so we are back to the navigate through four sub menus dance to load a plugin.
    So none of the current methods are particularly good, imo. I'd like to see something better. At the very list, a menu list of "Favourite Plugins" at the top of the menu list which you could organise and choose which plugins should go in there.

  • Leopard, ps cs3 and 3rd party plugins

    help again please.
    I have PS CS3 and numerous 3rd party plugins but as soon as I installed the new OS 10.5 I get the msg. one or more plugins are currently unavailable on your system. They worked before the upgrade of os10.5. I even upgraded to 10.5.1..The plugins I can't get are Nik color efex pro complete and Nik sharpener pro complete. The Nik website states they are compatible. Other 3rd party plugins like Fluid Mask 3, Genuine Fractals and Flaming Pear all work. Help if you can please. I already have a msg. to Nik software for help but have not gotten an answer from them..
    Thank you.
    sincerely
    karen

    To use your Nik Software products on a new Intel-based Mac Computer with Photoshop CS3, simply follow these three easy steps below:
    1. Quit / Exit out of Adobe Photoshop CS3 and navigate to the Adobe Photoshop CS3 application file which is typically at the following location: Macintosh HD | Applications | Adobe Photoshop CS3
    2. Highlight the Adobe Photoshop CS3 application file icon and press Command + I (+ I) to open File Info.
    3. On the File Info window (as shown on the right), check the box next to "Open using Rosetta", then close the window.
    That’s all there is to it. Photoshop and Nik Software filters will work without a problem.

  • Can I rearrange AU 3rd party plugin's nested folder structure??

    Is it possible to organize 3rd party AU plugins by TYPE rather than by Brand?  Even better, can they be integrated into the menu of Logic's included instruments/effects?  It's hard to sift through say, all your samplers, or all your synths, when they are organized by Company names, and separated from Logics own instruments.  I would love to see Kontakt and Sampletank alongside EXS24.  And all my compressors together in a list, as opposed to them all being nested individually. 
    I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, but was thinking maybe someone figured out a way to change the structure.  Thanks!

    I'm sorry, I don't think I explained this clearly enough:
    My problem is NOT that the plug-ins won't show up in my Library after I set the path to a particular folder in Motion's Preferences.
    My problem is that there is no longer even an option anymore to set the path to a particular folder in Motion's Preferences! It was there before, and now it has just disappeared! I don't know how to get it back. When I open Motion's Preferences pane now, in the General section, the sections are as follows:
    Startup
    Interface
    File Browser & Library
    Content Library & Templates
    Media
    Keyframe Editor
    Normally, the "3rd Party Plugins" section is right below the "Content Library & Templates" section, but it's not there anymore...
    I apologize for any confusion caused by an earlier post and hope my problem is more clearly understood now. Thanks!

  • Disappearing "3rd Party Plugin" option

    I recently tried to change the search path for 3rd party plugins to my After Effects plugins folder (Applications > Affter Effects > Plug-ins). They still wouldn't show up when I'd open Motion and navigate to the 3rd Party folder in the Library. So I gave up and didn't bother with it any more.
    I was more distracted by the fact that none of my Replicators or Particle Emitters were showing up, so I re-installed (or possibly installed for the first time, this is a work computer, so I didn't do the initial installation) the Motion Content and they all appeared as expected. Now, here's what's confusing me:
    When I go into Motion's Preferences now, there is no longer even an option to set the path for 3rd Party Filters and Plugins (under the Content Library & Templates section)...
    Anyone know how I can fix this and get my plugins to work? I didn't have any trouble doing it on an ancient G4 Powerbook, but for some reason a fully-loaded MacPro is being difficult with me.
    Thanks for any help.
