AME import window empty after AE project converted to CC 2014

Running Mac OSX 10.9.4, I have After Effects CC, and CC 2014. I have Adobe Media Encoder CC, and CC 2014.
I have been working in AE CC on a composition and encoding it in AME CC 2014 without this issue.
This morning, I converted the project (.aep) to AE CC 2014, made some changes, removed all unused footage, and saved as a new filename. I am very stupid.
Now when I open the new filename in AME CC 2014 it says "Connected to dynamic link server" but shows nothing in the Composition window and has no active progress bars. Therefore I cannot select my composition and render it, only click cancel.
I get the same result after closing all open applications, restarting the machine, and using AME CC instead of 2014.
I can reopen the .aep file and see all the compositions.
No error messages.
No warning signs.
Just missed deadlines, angry customers, and excuses why I can't do what I said would be possible a few hours ago.
Anyone know a solution?

What happens when you use the Add To Media Encoder Queue command in After Effects?

Aperture 3.5.1 Import panel empty after iTunes 11.2.1 security update

Just a coincidence?
When I installed the recent iTunes 11.2.1 (1) security update, that directly followed the combined MacOS X 10.9.3 / iTunes 10.2 update, I got a warning, that Aperture had to be quit before installing the update.
After relaunching Aperture the Aperture Import panel stopped working:
The fonts in list view were upside down:
The Toolbar was empty and only gradually items kept reappearing.
The File Chooser and the Import settings bricks were empty.
Aperture was hanging on "Loading Assets" and not very responsive.
Clicking onto the empty bricks did occasionally reveal a pop-up menu:
This problem seems to be fixed, after I trashed Preferences and Presets:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Aperture.plist
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Aperture
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Import Presets.plist
But I would like to know, if anybody else had similar problems with Aperture after the recent MacOS X 10.9.3 / iTunes 11.2.1 update.
SInce this iTunes update fixes a security issue it should not be skipped.

It was just a coincidence Sorry, iTunes!
The problem was, that a broken file on my Desktop messed up the Import panel.
As soon as I add a certain empty PDF file with the name "119435-45-55 [6L].pdf" to my Desktop, strange things will happen with the Import panel on all three of my Macs running MacOS X 10.9.3 and Aperture 3.5.1. It took me a while to identify the file, because Aperture does show the filename as empty and does not show a preview.
The Import window will be messed up -
missing icons from the Toolbar and Import settings pane,
the File Chooser will be empty,
the busy indicator will show "Loading assets", and the Activity Window "Building Thumbnails"
The thumbnail of the corrupted file will be empty and the filename is showing as empty,
When I switch to list view, all text will be upside down as shown in my original post.
The problem is not caused by the brackets in the filename; if I rename the file, Aperture is still acting up. The file cannot be opened in Preview either.

Thumbnails in Import Window Empty for Nikon D90

I recently acquired a Nikon D90 and it is working well with Aperture except in one regard. When I turn the camera on and the import window appears the thumbnails are always empty (just the dashed outline shows). I don't see this with my other cameras. I had hoped yesterdays update to Camera Raw support might fix it but it did not.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I have the same problem but it seems to be linked to whether you shoot in RAW or RAW+JPG. If you go for the later you get the thumbnail preview. For RAW only you get nothing. I'm assuming the thumbnail is only referencing the JPG.

Premiere Elements 9 window disappears after loading project

Hello all,
I've been having issues with Premiere Elements (9) lately. I have read other threads similar to my problem and followed some of the instructions (deleting the Pref file, for example).
Whenever I open a specific project (that has worked before until recently), the loading progess bar goes from 0-100 and then it stays there. After that, the entire program disappears. It doesn't crash (as it's still in the task bar), but when I click on PrE9, nothing comes up. When I mouse-over the icon on the task bar, it's just the window buttons (minimize, expand, exit).
The reason I started this thread is because none of the problems I found were really similar to mine.
Any help would be much appreciated.
(Also, please pardon me if this thread is in the wrong place.)
Thanks!

Have you looked at any possible involvement of the antivirus program in the way of recent updates for it? Recent Windows Updates? Can we assumed that you have not added, subtracted any programs that would coincide with the onset of the issue?
Have you checked to make sure that your video card is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
Recently, with Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA video card, answers have come from rolling back the driver.
I guess you tried the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file deletion. But, did you try deleting the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
Do you have the Premiere Elements 9 installation disc for installations files in case a deactivation, uninstall, run through of ccleaner, reinstall is indicated?
But, let me backup for a moment. Is this issue confined to one previously created project or to all your Premiere Elements projects either new or old?
Let us start here and then move forward according to your answers.
Thanks.

Add On...Usual...confirm that you have the latest version of QuickTime installed, you are running the program as the 9.0.1 Update, and you are running the program Run As Administrator or from a User Account with Administrative Privileges.

Unable to change window properties after upgrading project from X5 to RH8

Hi,
I just upgraded an existing project from X5 to RH8. In Windows Properties (HTML Help), if I make any changes and click OK, I receive the following message:
"For Width field please enter a value between 65 and 24."
If I do enter a value within those parameters in any of the "Width" options on the Properties page, I'm still presented with the same error message.
How can this be corrected?
Thanks!

Hi there
Perhaps try creating a totally new window definition and configuring the parameters as desired.
Once in a blue moon we see that the window definition somehow becomes corrupt.
Cheers... Rick

Marker window empties after placing In/Out in MC clip (CC)

(Premiere Pro CC on OSX 10.8.5)
We have interviews shot on three cameras. We synched all three using in-points and made a multicamera clip using "Make multi-camera source sequence."
We then placed markers (with durations) on the MC clips and placed text in them by using the Markers window.
So far so good.
Then the problem arises. When I place an In or Out point on the MC Clip, the markers and text disappear from the Markers window. The only way I can get them to show back up again is by clicking on the Source window. Then as soon as I place another In or Out point, they disappear again.
WTF?

I found a workaround: deselect the multicam sequence in the Project panel before working with it in the Source Monitor. More explicitly:
Load the multicam sequence into the Source Mon.
In the Project panel, single-click any project item other than the multicam sequence that's now loaded in the Source Mon.
In Source Mon, work with markers and In/Out points to your heart's content.

Importing bc4j from jar in project

Hi,
since we have a complex application, we want to group application modules logically into smaller modules (submodules), which must be combined to yield more complex modules. Every submodule lives in its own project, so reusing a submodule in a more complex project implies that that submodule must be imported into the project hosting the more complex appmodule.
Within a project, as soon as a BC4J module has been created (call it the "base module"), the "import business components" option becomes avaiable. With this, BC4J can be imported, e.g. from a jar file.
Everything works fine, as long as JDeveoper is not exited. The imported views, viewlinks, etc. can be used in the datamodel of the base module, and the tester runs neatly on the compex applicatoin module, as well for the native as for the imported views.
After the project has been rebuilt, everything has been saved, and JDev is exited, on restart, the imported BC package is still visible, but all views and links belonging to it are now gone, since an error occurs loading the BC4J xml file (strange since at first the xml file could obviously be parsed without problem). I include the error trace at the end of this message.
Even though an additional classpath to the imported jar file has been set, and a library containing the imported jar has been defined and added to the new project, the load error persists.
If the bc4j are not imported from jar, but directly, no such error occurs!
Is this a known problem (in Jdev 9.0.3.1035) and are there any workarounds?
Alex

There is a bug in 9.0.3 that occurs if the jar file you are importing is on a different drive letter than the one that your project is on. If the jar and your project are on the same drive then everything works ok. If they are not, the symptoms match the ones you are describing. The workaround is to relocate the jar file to the same drive. This has been fixed for future releases.
Hope this helps.

My current os x is 10.9.5, using final cut express vers. 4.0.1. I have imported .mov clips created with a older mac os x (lion) and converted them to import into fce. after doing this as well as putting clips on the fce timeline when playing back t.h

My current os x is 10.9.5, using final cut express vers. 4.0.1. I have imported .mov clips created on a older mac os x (lion) and when I wanted to import them into fce, a quicktime conversion window opened up and converted them (I haven't experienced this in the past). I then imported the converted quicktime clips into my fce project. After doing this I took selected clips and put those edited clips on the fce timeline. When playing the video back in the fce timeline,I noticed
1) the video wasn't playing back smoothly like the original content
2) when looking at the timecode reading of the timeline, the timecode was sputtering as well as the video and audio. I exported to quicktime just to see if that was consistent, it was.
When I play the converted quicktime content independently of fce, it plays normally (no sputtering of timecode, video and audio. Need help to resolve the sputtering playback of converted video content in the fce timeline. I've never experienced this before. Any suggestions?

When you say you converted the clips before importing them into FCE, did you convert to AIC or DV and do the converted clips match your FCE Sequence settings exactly? If not, go back and convert the original files again, using the intended Sequence settings as a guide.

After installing iphoto 9.5 some of my projects are completely or partly empty after regenerating, how can I get them back?

After installing iphoto 9.5 some of my projects (photobooks) are completely or partly empty after regenerating, how can I get them back?

Define "everything" because if you've tried everything then your last recourse is:
1 - restore your backup copy of your iPhoto Library created just prior to your Yosemite upgrade or
2 - Starting over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

After using DNG converter, Lightroom still won't recognize and import my photos...

I just started shooting with a Sony A6000 and couldn't import the photos due to compatibility issues with my current version of lightroom (4.4). After reading about it on the forums I found that I had to either download LR5 or use the DNG converter then import into LR. I opted for the free problem fix and downloaded DNG Converter v8.4 (compatible with Sony A6000). Now, after converting my freshly shot photos to DNGs, I've tried to import them into Lightroom through both the Copy and Move functions (because I like the file organization I've established through LR) but each time I end up with a dialogue box saying "Could not move a file to the requested location." When in the import window, LR shows previews of the images clearly. When converting to DNGs, I've ensured the photos are compatible with Camera RAW v7.1 and later (my LR has v7.4) and I've tried both embedding Fast Load Data and not... Also, I'm using a MacBook Pro OS X 10.9 if that makes any difference. Am I missing something? I don't see what the problem is... All I want to do is organize and edit my new photos from my new camera on LR without having to pay an additional $80 for the new LR just because I have a new camera...

This could be a permissions issue, especially if you are using a Mac computer. Make sure you have write permission for the folder you are trying to import into.

What is the "Imported Namespaces" window in Visual Studio Project Properties (VB)

What is the "Imporeted namespaces" window (see below) in Project properties (VB)

Hi trogan,
This is the official document Description from
How to: Add or Remove Imported Namespaces (Visual Basic):
Imported namespaces are managed on the References page of the Project Designer. The imports you specify in this dialog box are passed directly to the compiler (/imports) and apply to all files in your project.
But I think we could understand it better with this document:

Encore DVD 2.0 on Windows: Composition background color of dynamically linked After Effects projects

Hello,
I used Adobe Dynamic Link to import an After Effects project, and I saw that in Encore the background color of a composition is set to black even though it is defined with another value in After Effects.
I had to open the project in AE and place a solid layer with the desired color behind all other layers.
What are the causes for this behaviour? Did I do something wrong or is it a bug?
Best regards,
Christian Kirchhoff

The composition background is transparent. It has per se no color and does not react to blendmodes and such. It's imaginable that Encore resets it to black for whatever reason (wouldn't know, as I design my menus always with full frame backgrounds to begin with). Still, I would consider it a bug regardless, so please fiel away:

After connecting my Sony camcorder to imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video the import window does not open. I have imported videos from the sam camcorder successfully before. What could have happened? Puzzled)

After connecting my Sony camcorder to Imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video to imovie 09 the import window does not open. In the past I have successfully imported videos from the same camcorder. What could have happened? Puzzled

Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
Thank you so much for beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
So your kindness is very much appreciated.

When will the File menuitem on OS X be released after having opened and cancelled out of the Import window with Fx 4 beta 12?

This [http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/4186/screenshot20110226at124.png (Image)File menuitem not released after closing Import window.]
It has been there since early Firefox 4 betas. With 3.6 and 3.5 of Firefox it happened with the Tools and Bookmarks menuitem, also on Leopard and Snow Leopard the same way like the screenshot above. It happens more often that I would like. I'm not in the File menu at all and yet it's highlighted. I've closed the Firefox window and reopened a new window but the File menu remains active until I actively press it again or any other menu in the Firefox 4 menubar.
You can try it by choosing the File menu -> Import and then simply close the Import window and return to Firefox 4 for a browsing session. Does the File menuitem remain active? Happens each time now that I figured out the correct trigger that I mentioned with the Import window.

Hi Rick & Todd
thanks for testing & responding
@ Rick - ProRes cannot be fixed with color management. At all. It is a problem that adobe has setting a correct quicktime gamma flag.
I am color-tight if re-importing encoded file back in to AE or any other adobe app. When exporting to PR or Quicktime in General, something is going terribly wrong.
@ Todd - This whole thing did not leave me alone and I have figured out what the problem is (aside from the Quicktime issue)
If AE's Audio Hardware Preferences is set to anything else than built-in audio this problem occurs. Setting it to Built-in Audio all the issues are remedied.
@ Todd - I have Crash Reporter Enabled.. but AE never crashes ;-)
@ Todd - I spent the better half of this year beta testing PT 11 for AVID along with another dedicated set of folks... The reason we test so long prior to release is to get rid of all the small issues that should never surface in a commercial software. Of Course you cannot get all of them but such as testing the audio hardware capabilites of AE prior to a major release should have been cought by the beta crew.. If any.
The quicktime issues are long standing - how about opening contact with Apple ( you are a developer and entitled to Apple Support) and tell them about the problem. And have them help you.
I mean, you offer Speedgrade which is a fantastic app, PPRO, AE & PS (All great) but what good is greatness if neihter is able to deliver. The quicktime file is being displayed with a .8955 gamma offset (What one would have to offset the quicktime file by) when viewed in any other app than adobe's That is a lot.

you can bump into probs only when it comes to sheer amount of data:
