AMD FX 8150 problem on After Effects CS6

After effects cs6 detects only 1 core of my 8-core processor. How can I fix this? TIA!
Here's a screenshot.

I'm experiencing very similar problems. When I hit RAM preview it takes between 7 and 30 seconds to start the render process, which is fast once it starts. For large projects this is maddening. I've tried every setting I can think of it has 0 affect on the issue.
I don't expect to get a real solution as over the years I've just learned to live with AE quirks. I'm sure some will want to blame the system which is a 3770k running at (4.4ghz) 32GB RAM, Asus p8z77a-v deluxe board and an nivida GTX 660 2GB hardware enabled (hacked) video card all running on a Samsung SSD. Others apps are lightning fast and even Premiere performs fantastic, but of course as I live in AE it tortures me to no end now.
But no, you are not alone with this. I also get strange behavior at times where dozens of AE windows flash on the task bar for a few seconds before locking in and rendering whatever it is I'm working with. Current settings are NO disk cache, NO render multiple frames. Projects start off smooth with instant previews but when it gets busy with many different clips things get like I've described above. Should mention I work mostly with Canon XF100 footage for HDV projects maybe the codec has an impact.

Thanks for all this feedback guys/gals. Indeed it works and plays back when I select the RAM PREVIEW TAB. Is there a way though to play back audio just with regular playback or do you always have to use ram preview when working with audio in AE? (forgive the novice question)
RAM preview IS regular playback in After Effects. Spacebar is pointless (and I'm not even sure why it works at all). You have to remember, as Rick pointed out, that After Effects is completely different from an NLE.
Now, if you want to just play the audio without having to render, you can press the decimal key (.) on your numeric keypad. During audio playback, you can press the * key on your keypad to leave markers. If a layer's selected, it'll leave layer markers and if no layer is selected, it will leave composition markers.
As someone new to After Effects, you should really start here. The resources linked there cover all of the basic things you need to know about AE including how to preview. Getting a good foundation in the fundamentals will help you avoid much frustration in the future.

Export problems in After Effects CS6 (WMV8)

Hello everyone,
I recently discovered a strange problem with AE CS6:
for a broadcasting system (used in public transportation) I have to export videos as WMV with the WMV8 codec and a Variable Bitrate (WMV9 is not supported by the system).
All videos have a length of 10 seconds, sometimes 15 seconds. They mainly consist of animated JPGs/PNGs - text, vector shapes, masks etc. are sometimes also added directly in AE.
When I export the AE sequence as a WMV, AE cuts of the last 2-5 seconds of the output file. So the exported video is not 10 seconds but only 6 or 8.
I tried various settings for the WMV8 but nothing helped.
For troubleshooting I also tried to export to WMV9 with VBR - and that worked just perfectly.
So I guess it's a codec problem - but can it be that WMV8 and AE are not quite compatible?
I already came up with a workaround, but this is not a real solution.
Workaround is as follows: first I export my sequence as an uncompressed AVI, then I import the AVI into Premiere Pro CS6, and then I directly export it from there to an WMV8 with VBR. I also tried to export it directly from the MediaEncoder but that ended like the export from AE: 2-5 seconds were missing in the output video.
I'm confused that it works in Premiere but neither in AE nor in MediaEncoder.
The Workaround is tedious and it doesn't always function with an AVI file (sometimes I have to export MOV, MP4 or WMV9 to get a correct result - that's another strange thing) - it's really experimenting.
I also tried it on different computers - it's always the same.
Has any of you discovered issues like that? (I searched the internet but I couldn't find anything, so this is my last hope )
Thank you in advance!
Greetings

Could be that this is a bug in Windows Media itself. I vaguely recall a similar issue in CS5 or even CS4, where the WMV encoder would not allow anything other than 29.97 fps with WMV 8. Something to do with that "Audiences" stuff and the predefined profiles, I believe... If so, I don't think you can do anything about it otehr than continue to use your workaround, but perhaps try investigating this on a broader level. perhaps you may need to install a specific older version of the WM libraries on your system liek some alternate media players/ encoders use it. just be careful to not screw your CoDecs...

After Effects CS6 m2ts - no audio. Footage from Hauppauge

Having a problem in After Effects CS6 with m2ts footage. The footage definatley has audio but is showing in After Effects as having no audio icon. The project window also shows no audio and says AVC HD, no audio waveform either. This exact type of footage worked with CS5 without any problems with the audio just fine. I don't understand why the newer version of AE version updated to 11.0.4.2 does not work.
I undertstand that I can try to extract the audio and re align everything as a fix. I have 50 or so projects that used the m2ts fine and most have complex time remapping so simply re aligning the audio wouldn't be possible, most clipe woulod need to major rework and in some case redone.
I also understand I could just use CS5 but I want to get to the root of the problem and need to use some of the newer features.
I have tried things like renaming to mts and mp4 with no success. Also updated Media encoder and Premiere, reinstalled the programs too, deactivating and reactivating.
These m2ts videos will play audio fine in VLC, windows media player. The footage was recorded with a Hauppauge 1 and the audio was recorded in the AC3 format.
I should be able to find a defferent output format with the Hauppauge to use in the meantime. But for all the saved work done that either needs major rework or redone myself and other who are experiencing the same problem I really hope there is a fix.

One, use MP4 not m2ts
Two - Transcode to a production codec using AME
Three - If you have more than one audio track extract them using Audition

Hi, so I'm wanting to buy After Effects CS6 and I have a MacBook Pro 15 inch, will the program work? If not what which After Effects version will?

I'm saving up to buy After Effects CS6 and I wanted to make sure the program will work on my Macbook Pro. I have the 15 inch screen. If that version doesn't work is there another version that will work with it?

Yes, After Effects CS6 will work on a MacBook Pro.
I see in your sig that it says that you're still using Mac OS X v10.5.1. Really? Because that would be a problem. After Effects CS6 requires v10.6.8 or higher of Mac OS X.

After Effects CS6 Crashing on Win 7 x64 HP z620 Workstation

After Effects CS6 crashes when loading UI interface, I have use CS tool to remove software, completed a clean install and still the same issue. I'm using a HP z620 with 24 cores 12Gig RAM Nvidia Quadro 4000 video card. These spec are well above the requirements for the software. I have also cleared the perfs folder as well. BTW when it also happens when I use any of the CS6 Master Collection software. Could someone please help with this

I know this doesnt help you figure out whats wrong, but its to let you know that a similar system (Z820, 64GB ram, Nvidia GTX 570) has no problem loading After Effects CS6.
I would suggest a complete uninstall using the Adobe Cleaner software and a reinstal of the Creative Suite.

After Effects CS6 doesn't recognize my Nvidia Quadro K5000 + Tesla c2075 (Maximus) setup

Hello everybody, could you help me to address this problem? After Effects CS6 doesn't recognize my Nvidia Quadro K5000 + Tesla c2075 (Maximus) setup. What should I do?
Best,
Oscar.

That is not a configuration that After Effects CS6 will use for the GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer.
See the After Effects CS6 system requirements:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-effects.html#After Effects CS6 system requirements
The Quadro K5000 was added to the whitelist for the GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer in After Effects CC (12.0).

AMD FirePro D500 and Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6?

My company just recently purchased the new 2013 Mac Pro with the AMD FirePro D500 graphics cards. Everytime I try to open After Effects CS6 I get a GPUManager Sniffer Result Code: 3 error and Premiere Pro CS6 sits on the splash screen indefinitely. Does Adobe not play nice with the new card? Am I out of luck?

In effort to fix the problem while waiting for a response I unstalled both AE and PP CS6 but not I can't seem to reinstall them from anywhere.... so I don't know what version of After Effects I have/had.
My operating sysem is OS X 10.9.2 (13C64) . My graphics card information is:

As far as CUDA, I originally had an iMac that was using Time Machine and that is how I transfered my stuff over to the new Mac Pro. It had CUDA on there...

HELP! After Effects CS6 "Background Color" Rendering Problem!

Of all my years of using Adobe After Effects, I have never encountered this problem before. First of all, this is what it looks like when I'm normally editing in my composition.
Click the image to view in a higher resolution.
When I add this composition to the render que, with all my settings ready, I hit render.
But while it's rendering, I just get a red screen.
In case you're wondering, these are my basic rendering settings.
These are my output module settings.
And these are my composition settings.
After Effects CS6: Version 11.0.0.378
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit
RAM: 6.00 GB
Quad Core Processor: AMD A6-3600 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 2.10 GHz
