AME cannot read from source file???
THE SOLUTIONS POSTED ON THE ADOBE SITE (see below) FOR THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT WORK!!!! Any other suggestions Adobe???
Do one or both of the following solutions:
Solution 1: Create a shortcut to the Premiere Pro executable file, rename the shortcut to Premiere, and move the shortcut to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
Close all Adobe applications.
In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. (If you installed Premiere Pro CS4 in a location other than the default of C:\Program Files\Adobe, then navigate to your custom installation location.)
Right-click on Adobe Premiere Pro.exe (which might appear without the .exe extension) and choose Create Shortcut.
Rename the newly created shortcut to just Premiere.
Important: The name of the shortcut must be exactly Premiere with no other characters.
Open a second Windows Explorer window, and navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
Move the Premiere shortcut that you created into the dynamiclink folder.
Solution 2: Remove and reinstall all Premiere Pro CS4 components or all Adobe Creative Suite 4 components.
Do one of the following:
Windows XP: Choose Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
Windows Vista: Choose Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.
In the list of installed programs, select Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium, or Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection.
Click Change/Remove (Windows XP) or Uninstall (Windows Vista).
Follow the on-screen instructions to remove all components of Premiere Pro CS4 (including Adobe Encore CS4 and Adobe OnLocation CS4) or to remove all components of your edition of Adobe Creative Suite 4.
Re-install your Adobe software.
Solution 2 did not work. I have been using adobe software for seven years and do not have 'other' problems. The only piece of info I can gather off the forum is that when you have replaced CS3 from a system with CS4, some remnants of CS3 remain to reek havoc. I have isolated the problem to the project file, but still can not get the sequence I need to export or import into another project.

UPDATE : Toshiba Recovery Wizard 'cannot read from source file or disk' error (satellite L500)
UPDATE 2: Phoned Toshiba tech support again, guided by techie to begin the recovery again. Just before phoning I was able to go into recovery options and view the drive setup and all the files that couldn't be read are on the CD so I've no idea why the error kept occuring, and neither did the techie. Fingers crossed it works this time but I'm not overly hopefully given that we've just done exactly the same as I did before. UPDATE 1: I got into the BIOS and reset everything back to defaults and yay, my toshiba recovery wizard now starts! :-D On the down side, when trying to do a factory default software / out of the box recovery I continually get error messages with regards to copying the files, for example
cannot read from source file or disk
7z.dll
Type application extension
size 585kb
date modified 7/14/2009 10.26pm
other read / copy errors include PREINST6.SWM, BOOT_32, BOOTPRIORITY, CHECKMAXPTSIZE, CHGBOOT, CPU, CPUCHECK, CREATEPARTITION, CTRLDRVINFO, DISKWIPE, DMI, DPINST32, EBLIB.DLL, ERRORDIALOG, EW3BOOTSEQ, FWLINK, FWLINK.SYS, GETHDDINFO, GETKEYSTATE, IMAGEX, INFILED, INITRECAREA, KRAIADAPI.DLL ..... at which point I decided to 'skip all' :-/
Any explanations as to what's going on and how I might be able to fix it would be very much appreciated! :-) Thank you!
I have a two and half year old satellite L500 with an Intel i-3 and 4 gigs of RAM, on which I was running Windows 7.
Admittedly it’s had rather a hard life (I ran some very demanding CAD / graphics software on it) but it had always performed well until just recently, when after suffering several BSOD (which had never happened before), the hard drive failed.
I partitioned and formatted a brand new hard drive (which is perfectly fine and functions normally when hooked up to another laptop with a SATA to USB cable) and obtained system recovery discs from Toshiba. Unfortunately, when I try and run the first disc, windows starts to load files but then generates an error screen with the message Error F3-F100-0003 and a request to turn the computer off.
When I use the windows Memory Diagnostic to get into the Windows Boot Manager Screen I get the following;
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware / software change might be the case.
To fix the problem
Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer
Choose your language settings and click ‘next’
Click ‘repair your computer’
File: \boot\memtest.exe
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: the selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
I can also use F8 on startup to get into the advanced boot options but selecting any of them simply results in the F3-F100-0003 error message. I’ve run a memory test using the UBCD, which tells me the memory is fine, and tried another hard drive (which also works perfectly well in another laptop) but no joy. On phoning Toshiba support the techie said my hard drive had failed, but as I say, both hard drives are perfectly fine / usable when hooked up to another laptop. I’m now completely stuck as to what the problem is and how I might resolve it – any advice / suggestions would be most gratefully received! Thank you in advance :-)Satellite L655-S5096

the second disc gives me the the "cannot read from source file or disk PREINST8.SWM"
My best guess is that the disc is not readable. Try copying it to another. Sometimes that works.
Otherwise, order new discs from Toshiba.

Recovery Disk Error : cannot read from source file or disk HOW TO FIX ISSUE
I have had my satellite L655-S5096 for some time now.. I had to switch out hard-drives the other day and installed windows 7 home on it from my own disk. I tried to download all the drivers needed, but the graphics and wifi drivers never worked, so I pulled out the old toshiba disks to start from new with this harddrive.. It gets to asking me for the second disc, then the second disc gives me the the "cannot read from source file or disk PREINST8.SWM" This is from the "out of the box" setting, which is recommended. I do not know how to fix this issue besides reinstalling windows 7 from my disc and trying to get the drivers to work again.. however I shouldn't have to since I have the Toshiba recovery disks.. do I need new disks?
Yes, I also had the hard drive drivers and all of that installed.. my toshiba reads the HDD just fine.

Cannot export video: AME cannot read from source, Installation Error
Ok, I've seen a lot of people on here talk about this and I have tried using their solutions but nothing has worked.
I cannot export anything from Premier Pro using Media Encoder. When I try, I get an yellow warning sign saying that it cannot read from the source, and when I close out of it I get a message saying that there is an installation error and that I need to make sure it is installed correctly. I have uninstalled and re-installed ALL of my Adobe products about three times this past weekend trying to fix it and nothing has worked. I have tried making sure that there are no blank spaces in my project, I have named it several different things, I have moved it from my external drive to my main drive, to a different external drive, etc.
I am using a Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard, all of my software has been updated, and I am very frustrated.
Help?Bummer!
Well, it was worth a shot, as externals/network drives have been known to cause similar.
Now, there were issues with Encore and Snow Leopard, but I do not recall all of the details, as I am a PC-guy, and have to admit that first I do not know squat about Macs, and probably do not read Mac threads as closely, as I should. Seems that Apple was working on an update to Snow Leopard, and again from recollection, it seems that that update helped several on the Encore forum. Have you updated Snow Leopard?
Sorry to just sit here guessing, and probably wasting valuable time for you, but until a Mac-user with the "fix" comes along, the PC-community will try to help. Be patient with us though. Our intentions are good ones, but our expertise is lacking - at least in MY case.
Good luck,

AME cannot read from source location
I've read up and down the forums about people having trouble with Adobe Media Encoder and no one
has posted a clear answer.
I am working on an iMac running OSX version 10.6.2. My processor is a 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo and I have 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM.
My problem lies in exporting a sequence from Premiere Pro CS4 to video.
I highlight my sequence, which previews perfectly in Premiere, then go to File > Export > Media...
I choose my settings and click OK.
Promptly, AME pops up and places my selection in the queue with a status of "Waiting."
I then click "Start Queue."
At this point, AME does nothing for roughly 6 minutes.
After this time, the status of the queued item changes to a warning symbol.
Clicking on the warning symbol, I get the AMEEncodingErrorLog.txt
Here, it tells me "Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted."
While checking what source file it is refrencing, I notice that it creates a new file every time I queue something new.
These source files are all in the folders referenced by AME.
Why can't AME just work?Finally, I have found the answer. On a CreativeCow.net forum, user Bill Clark posted the solution. Found here: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/3/886944
Re: CS4 Premiere Won't Encode Videos..
by Bill Clark on Dec 7, 2008 at 1:56:10 am
OK, believe it or not, 5 mins after I posted my rant I managed to solve my problem. It had nothing to do with all the stuff that everybody on the web was suggesting about re-installs and clean scripts. Something much simpler. I have a few plug ins on AE - Sapphire, Magic Bullet etc and I realised that every adobe programme was loading them on start up. And I kept getting an error message from Premiere Pro and Media Encoder about Magic Bullet looks - that it wasn't registered. It was driving me nuts because it is. I reinstalled everything twice, and during this process spotted that Adobe is now putting all the plug ins in a central folder - which it refers to as media core. This on a Mac is at Macintosh HD/Library/Application Suport/Adobe/Common/Plug ins/CS4. (There might also be a CS3 file as well)
It occurred to me that this might be causing confusion - Media Encoder trying to load plug ins that it doesn't understand and might not be licensed for in the XML file. So I pulled them out of there and put them straight into the AE CS4 plug in folder. Bingo. All the plug ins run fine - AND SO DOES MEDIA ENCODER! And now, no problems at all with the dynamic links between AE, Premiere Pro and ME.
I'm not saying this is the solution for everyone - but it's worked for me. Hope it helps somebody.
Over and out.

So there is nothing wrong inertly with AME, just that it was trying to load plugins that it ought not. Thanks for all the help leading to this solution. -

Hi Guys
I'm using PPr CS5 on Win7 64bit.
I'm not sure if this is strictly for here but can I pick your brains please? I edited in PPr and exported three versions of the same video to AVI (mainly different intros and titles) and they all play fine. I back up my movies to an external disk but one of them always creates an error in the back-up "Can't Read from Source File". The file sizes are 5.3gb for the offending movie and 8.3 for the other two.
I know the answer is to re-export the movie but I'm just trying to get a bit of a handle what could have caused this problem in the first place and if this is a common problem?
Any views?
Regards,
GrahamThat doesn't help much. What exactly are you doing when you get the error message?
Are you trying to open a PP project which contains the file?
Are you trying to play a sequence which has clips from that file?
Are you trying to play it in a media player?
Are you trying to import the file into PP? -
I´ve been using Compressor 4 for a long time, but thought I would give AME a try to see if there is any difference in quality. I added about 70 ProRes clips to the render que, each is between 4 and 30 seconds. These are clips with a lot of animation and effects, but they have already been exported to 1920 x 1200 ProRes files. I have 6 different presets: DXV and PhotoJPEG codec with three different resolutions each. When I start the que I get an error message saying that source file cant be read. Please check if it

I updated from the original version to 6.0.1 and when I re-started FF there were 4 icons on my desktop. I managed to delete one of them, but I cannot delete the other two - to leave me with just one.
I get the error message of "Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source fie or disk".Here's the meaning of the error that you received.
"An error has occurred. ERROR :10-FC06-0002" -- may be caused by damaged recovery media or faulty hard drive"
Possible that the problem is on the recovery also.
Hope this helps. -
Cannot read from the source file or disk
I had to get a new hard drive for my Satellite A665 old one kept freezing up; had a recovey disk from Geek Squad when I got it but they did not work. So I ordered a Recovery Disc set from Toshiba.
A few minutes after I insert the 3nd disc, I get the following message:
Cannot read from the source file or disk
PREINST14.SWM
Type: SWM File
Size: 670 MB

Clicking [Try Again] or [Skip] clicked try again twice. Gave same message so clicked skip. Got another message.

An error has occurred.

Recovery Error.
Please press [OK] to turn off the computer.
I tried erasing the disk, then running the Recovery Wizard again, but wind up in the same place.It's hard to know exactly what the problem is. You might want to contact customer support because it could just be a faulty disc.

I recently purchased a Mac OS X 10.6.6 which was an upgrade from my Mac OS version 10.4.1.1 I downloaded the Adobe Photoshop CS2 which I had on my old computer and now it cannot read my NEF files which is a RAW file from my Nikon D200. I did not have this problem on my old Mac. I always shoot RAW and can't open any photos. Can anyone help me PLEASE?!?
Do you have access to another Mac to see if the disk can be read by it? If it can't then you're pretty sure it's the disk. If it can then there may be issues with your optical drive which might be cleared up by using a cleaning disk on it, one that uses dry brushes (no liquid).
If you have access to another Mac and it can read the iWork disk make a disk image of it so you can move the disk image to your iMac and install from the disk image.

LabVIEW for ARM 2009 Read from text file bug
Hello,
If you use the read from text file vi for reading text files from a sdcard there is a bug when you select the option "read lines"
you cannot select how many lines you want to read, it always reads the whole file, which cause a memory fault if you read big files!
I fixed this in the code (but the software doesn't recognize a EOF anymore..) in CCGByteStreamFileSupport.c
at row 709 the memory is allocated but it tries to allocate to much (since u only want to read lines).
looking at the codes it looks like it supposed to allocated 256 for a string:
Boolean bReadEntireLine = (linemode && (cnt == 0));
if(bReadEntireLine && !cnt) {
cnt = BUFINCR; //BUFINCR=256
but cnt is never false since if you select read lines this is the size of the file!
the variable linemode is also the size of the file.. STRANGE!
my solution:
Boolean bReadEntireLine = (linemode && (cnt > 0)); // ==
if(bReadEntireLine) { //if(bReadEntireLine && !cnt) {
cnt = BUFINCR;
and now the read line option does work, and reads one line until he sees CR or LF or if the count of 256 is done.
maybe the code is good but the data link of the vi's to the variables may be not, (cnt and linemode are the size of the file!)
count should be the number of lines, like chars in char mode.
linemode should be 0 or 1.
Hope someone can fix this in the new version!
greets,
Wouter

"LabVIEW for ARM guru and bug destroyer"I have another solution, the EOF works with this one.
the cnt is the bytes that are not read yet, so the first time it tries to read (and allocate 4 MB).
you only want to say that if it's in line mode and cnt > 256 (BUFINCR) cnt = BUFINCR
the next time cnt is the value of the bytes that are not read yet, so the old value minus the line (until CR LF) or if cnt (256) is reached.
with this solution the program does not try to allocate the whole file but for the max of 256.
in CCGByteStreamFileSupprt.c row 705
if(linemode && (cnt>BUFINCR)){
cnt = BUFINCR;
don't use the count input when using the vi in line mode. count does not make sense, cnt will be the total file size. also the output will be an array.
linemode seems to be the value of the file size but I checked this and it is just 0 or 1, so this is good
update: damn it doesn't work!
Wouter.

Since updating my iTunes I no longer have any controls. iTune covers the entire desktop and I cannot add from my files. Prior to updating I had a perfectly good iTunes which would allow me to stories for including on a iPod.
Can anyone please advise me.From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
Take the following steps:
1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
Hope this helps!
