Any word on when AE CS6 and Premiere will be fixed?

Hello,
Just spent the better part of the afternoon searching and trying the various tweaks recommended to make CS6 video editing programs usable. No luck.
Efficiency of these programs has tanked since CS5.5 so now I wait to see if and then there will be an update to at least make these apps work as good as they have in the prior iteration. IF they work for you, great. I'm really glad for you that you don't face the same frustration so many others , including myself are facing.
Both my test machines are Macs, both run Mountain Lion.
MacPro with 10 gigs of RAM and...
MacbookPro with 16gigs RAM
Both look to render a 5 minute movie in over two hours without any additional plugins or special effects. Basically a simple screen shot movie and an Audition wav file as the voice over for an instructional movie to help some seniors with Photoshop.
Regardless, just opened the same two files as a new project in AE 5.5 and... well... it works. there is no minutes of delay when scrubbing the timeline and now I have something usable.
But the frustration that a product woudl be released (CS6) in such a poor state is , well.... (fill in the blanks)
So, my question is ; is there word on Adobe fixing and acknowledging this problem?

I also use screenflow.  And, as a general rule Adobe employee, Todd Kopriva recommends that people use Adobe Media Encoder for H.264 encoding or anything else going to  the Web or mobile devices.  Check this post by Andrew Yoole:

As the other guys have said, don't use AE to render using temporal codecs.  Temporal codecs like H264 rely on storing partial frames based on earlier information.  AE renders and encodes one frame at a time, so most of the efficiency of a codec like H264 is lost.  The result is that you get much lower overall quality from an AE h.264 render than if you were to encode it externally.
Adobe Media Encoder or Quicktime 7 will encode great quality H.264 files.
Also, AME has a lot of convenient features like encoding presets for common web services and devices.

  • I created a 5x7 postcard document in Word with text boxes and graphics.  When I converted it to PDF, some of the items were missing, even though they were in the boundaries of the page and looked fine on the Word document.  What happened, and how do I fix

    Reader doesn’t create pdf files. You can use Acrobat (ask in that forum) to create pdfs. You can subscribe to the Adobe PDF Pack which has a create pdf functionality (please ask in that forum), or you can use a third party utility such as ghostscript, cutepdf, or Microsoft’s own PDF creation capability. For third party pdf creation you will need to ask in a forum dedicated to that software as fellow users of Reader are unlikely to have the knowledge to help.

  • Adobe After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 wont work on OS lion

    I just bought a teacher Edition of Adobe Production Premium. I installed the softwares on my Mac which is running OS Lion 10.8.2. Everything works except Adobe After Effects CS6 and Adobe Premiere CS6. It always start up with the splash page then a pop up window opens that reads unexpected error occured send to apple.
    I don't understand because Photoshop, illustrator and the other softwares worked fine.
    I have tried uninstalling, re-installing, re-starting and even tried to download the After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 on creative cloud thinking that maybe those on the web will be more updated to address the issue.
    But still I cant get it to work.
    Please help.

  • After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

    After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
    If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
    This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.
    See this document for details:
    "64-bit Windows required for After Effects and Premiere Pro CS6"
    In general, you can only download and use applications for which your computer system meets the minimum system requirements.

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!

  • My Mac has suddenly stopped playing my DVDs including a DVD it played fine only 3 days ago. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong and how I could fix it? Thank you.

    My Mac has suddenly stopped playing my DVDs including a DVD it played fine only 3 days ago. I insert the DVD and wait for the player to start automatically but after 10 minutes, nothing is happening and it sounds like the disk has stopped spinning. I've now tried with four different DVDs (all store bought and so perfectly normal disks). The Mac doesn't eject the disk or anything it just doesn't seem to respond to it being there at all.
    My main confusion is why this suddenly happened today when it was perfectly fine last week.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong and how I could fix it? Thank you.

  • Any update on when lightning 30 pin adapters will support video?

    Any update on when lightning 30 pin adapters will support video transfer?

    yeah, and I can't believe that you can't buy sushi for breakfast, but there it is. Chris CA is right. Lightning will NOT support analog video out. It will do audio, though. So...your best bet would be to buy a Lightning digital AV adapter (2nd generation) then try to find an HDMI to 30 pin cable. I'm presuming that the wowee has a 30 pin socket on it... I see.... it also has a VGA and a mini-HDMI port on it, so you'll have to use the last two, perhaps, unless you can find  cable that goes from HDMI to 30 pin male end, then 30 pin female to female, to finally connect with the wowee. I  have yet to see a 30 pin female to female adapter, and I suspect there will never be one.  I can't believe many things, either, scoody. Apple is not known for going backwards, once it has introduced a new standard. It may try to acommodate some people, but it will never be able to please everyone.  In any event,  I think it was mentioned by Apple that, in moving to Lightning, some 30 pin stuff might not work, and the wowee cinemin slice is probably one of those things...
    welp--there you go

  • After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 Long Startup and Application Hang

    Problem:
    After Effects and Premiere Pro CS5.5 and CS6 are very slow to start all of a sudden.  Around 5 minutes to get to/by the intro dialogue box.  For AE, the majority of the time is spent on the "initializing user interface." Then, if I can make a comp, and even a layer inside that comp, it will "Hang" if I attempt to open AE's General preferences for example (no preferences window ever comes up).  This "hang" is what the Event Viewer in windows calls it, with the faulting module being afterfx.exe.  Premiere is not much different.   It makes it to the new project window fast, but after setting project parameters and creating the first sequence, I can't get into the preferences either and the application hangs.  It is important to note that if I have another application open, like Chrome or Firefox for example at the time the application hangs, they will freeze as well.  As soon as I kill the Afterfx.exe process, they come back to life.
    I have read nearly all threads on the subject, and am struggling to find a solution:
    Deleted preferences folder under my username's appdata.
    Turned off Firewall (network traffic from dynamiclink, qtserver, etc was allowed, but what the hay)
    ran windows system file checker/malwarebytes/rkill/rootkit detection.
    checked for windows compatibility checkboxes under the file.
    Uninstalled Wacom Tablet drivers
    Disabled Aero
    Started with ctrl-alt-shift to delete pref.
    uninstalled video driver and replaced with one 6 months ago.
    uninstalled, reinstalled, and tested various quicktime versions back to version 7.69
    moved plugins folder
    moved opengl's plugin out of the folder temporarily
    Disabled all 3rd party codecs (xvid was the only one installed and for months)
    reinitialized default directshow filters
    checked for adobe font list (none found) and removed any fonts from 1 month ago to present.
    used msconfig to selective startup without other applications/services running.
    Uninstalled all adobe products, and reinstalled.
    I performed all of these in a systematic manner, trying to solve the problem.  None have fixed the problem.
    So it doesn't seem to be a network issue, a codec issue, a plugin issue, a driver issue, font issue, or conflicting application.  Any thoughts?

  • HT4818 Is there any word on when apple will support Windows 8 in bootcamp?

    Hi all,
    Is there any word on if Apple will officially support W8 using Bootcamp (and not Parrallels etc)?
    I assume that it will happen once W8 is officially released in October however I was wondering if anyone has any official word.
    Otherwise, if a clean install of the Win 8 RTM is already able to be done via bootcamp can someone point me to some instructions (the only reason I dont want to do it myself is because all the drivers from BC are for Win 7)

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Apple will support it when Windows 8 is released. You can install Windows 8 at your risk, because Boot Camp doesn't support it now

  • CS6 and Premiere Elements keeps asking for activation

    Hi
    I am a system engineer in a school. We have a K12 Site license for CS6 and we purchased about 30 single license versions of Premier Elements through certified resellers. I deployed CS6 a few years ago on our old PC's by installing the software on one computer and then cloning the pc 30 times with CloneZilla. That worked fine.
    A year later i repeated the procedure on 25 other computers. No problem there.
    Last summer i did the same to replace the 30 pc's i had cloned the first time. Since then i have to activate CS6 over and over again indicating a trial version. Also the other classroom with 25 pc' began to ask for activation after 2 years with no worries.
    In oktober i Installed Premiere Elements on each individual computer one by one. And that went well for a few months but then all of a sudden PE began to prompt for activation. My collegues drive me crazy with their remarks and worries.
    So far i tried to activate CS6 by creating a serialization file with the adobe application manager. When i run the file and retry the program i am no longer prompted for an activation... for a while.
    There is no way to tell which device will prompt of when. It is random. Sometimes it is just one device, then all of a sudden it are 3-4.
    Please help
    Maarten

    Hi Maarten,
    Adobe Premiere elements 12 (individual license) requires sign in /activation if you have installed individually however you can suppress the sign window using Adobe provisioning toolkit
    In case you have Adobe volume license for PRE 12. Please visit the link below to find the workflow.
    Deploy Premiere Elements 11 and earlier | Windows
    Thanks,

  • Any Known Issues Btwn Au CS6, and Alesis I/O 26/Win7 64 Bit?

    Back in '07 when I first purchased my Alesis I/O 26 interface it's driver was still much too buggy for Au 3.0; so I returned my Au 3.0.  So, I still have my I/O 26 running on Sonar 8.5 / Win7 64bit very nicely, thank you.  However, I want to upgrade my Au 1.5 up to CS6, and I'm trying to research (NOT ACCUSE) if anyone in the Au CS6 community has my same configuration, and if there are any compatibility issues I should know about.
    Thanks,

    Way back when, I did indeed uninstall and reinstall my Catalyst drivers, still no luck, still same problem.
    Finally today, some 6 months later, I was again dealing with Photoshop Phone tech support for another hour or two, including much hold time, finally having the issue excalated, as all software and drivers seemed up to date, and yet all versions of the gpu sniffer program still could not identify my gpu.
    After I got off the phone with them, I went to the AMD site and followed instructions on how to uninstall and reinstall their software. One step I had not thought of or tried was, after uninstalling the Catalyst software, repairing the .Net 4.5.1 framework through the Microsoft site before reinstalling the Catalyst software. It somehow seems that though the Catalyst installer software supposedly installs the .Net 4.5 framework, it cannot, unless the framework is already installed...
    Anyway, this does seem to have finally gotten the 64bit Version of Photoshop to finally work on my desktop.

  • Any word on when Windows 10 will become available for Qosmio X75-7180

    I have the Windows 10 "Get Windows 10" taskbar button and am still waiting for a notification that "Windows 10 is ready for my specific PC."  Any word from Toshiba about when this will happen?  I have a Surface Pro 2 that upgraded to Windows 10 last week, and so far it's been awesome - very fast and snappy, easy to use, and the upgrade process was a snap.  I've heard of people having trouble upgrading from the website, so I'm waiting until I get the specific notice so that I know all the customized drivers are baked into the system.

     
    Here's a little more informaiont.
    Qosmio X75-A7180
    Downloads here.
    For more, put your part number (PSPLTU-0QU04V) in here.
    Your selected Toshiba PC is supported for upgrade to Windows 10, but not all of the software for the upgrade is available at this time. Additional software will be posted here when it is ready. Please check back at a later time.
    If you don't want to wait for Microsoft, you can upgrade this way.

  • Any word on when the new NSU will be available?

    As with the recent Vista incompatibility issues, thousands of Nokia handset owners are up in arms about, and are wondering when this will be fixed. I was informed Nokia headquarters in Norway were aware of the problem on the 9th of this month (April 2008), but wanted to ask if anyone knew the release date for the revised Nokia Software Updater?
    Me personal, have issues with it installing correctly, and Im using Vista Business, and have tried everything, and am led to believe its down to the latest version of NSU.
    Please advise.
    Thanks
