Can't find After Effects user guide.

I just installed Production Premium CS5.5 a couple of days. One of the optional downloads is the Functional Content for After Effects. The description says that it contains templates, footage and a user guide not included with the trial version. I've installed the functional content but I can't find this user guide.
Help.
Thanks.

It's online: go Help>After Effects Help.  It's actually more of a reference work than a how-to for the novice. 
AE takes so flippin' many twists & turns that it's darned near impossible to put everything in a logical sequential order.  If you're new, you owe it to yourself to pay a nice, long visit to this page.  Start at the top with the overview of how AE works.
And there are a boatload of helpful links throughout.

    Where can I find a useful "user guide" I can print for an ipad2

    Be green and don't print!  The iPad user's guide is in the bookmarks section of Safari.  But, because you'll be reading it in Safari, you have to be in a wifi area or using the 3G network.  However, you can download the .pdf and open it in the free iBooks reader.  Then you have it with you wherever you go and don't have to be on the internet to read it.

  • I can't find after effects on Creative Cloud to install ??

    Hello,
    I can't find after effects on Creative Cloud to install ??
    no after effects , no premiere ,, can u please advice ..

    JayneMarie I think your computer now has a 32 bit OS and since the CS5 version, Premiere Pro is not meant to work in a 32 bit environment.
    Please check your OS details and make sure you have a 64-bit OS installed. If it isn't a 64-bit OS, you will need to reinstall the OS.

  • Where can I find After Effects Tutorials to do a specific kind of animation?

    I am new to After Effects and to learn it, I want to find some tutorials.
    I want to jump right into this and start doing development as soon as I can.
    In order to do this, I want to study tutorials that will instruct how to do effects I want in my video.
    Here are similar videos to show as example.  I want to know how to make text and images and maybe video clips fly onto the viewing area in a similar way that is done in these three videos:

    First, if you're going to post a video that's full of obscenities, please warn us. There are 10 year olds that follow this forum and there are parents that try to watch over their children. There are even adults that are offended by such language and would rather not have it blaring from their speakers. My daughter, a regular reader of this forum and enthusiastic AE student, was humiliated when she accidentally clicked on the last video and those words started booming from her room.
    Secondly, The first example and the last example are called dynamic text animations. You'll find lots of info about those on the web if you search those terms.
    The second example is stop frame animation and requires a bunch of talent with a pen. If you can't draw it's really tough to do that kind of work. You could duplicate that kind of animation by setting up a high resolution digital camera above a large piece of paper and then setting up the camera to take 1 or 2 frames per second while you create the illustration with a pen. Then you bring the image sequence into After Effects, put it in a standard size composition and move it around to reveal the various parts of the drawing.
    Come to think of it, please don't post videos with obcene language. Keep it PG13...

  • Problem in Creative Cloud desktop app filtering: can't find After Effects CC(12) version

    I need to export a CC(2014) After Effects project in CS5.
    I've saved in CC(12) version but now i need After Effects CC(12) to be able to save the project in CS6.
    If i filter by "all versions" or by "audio/video" i see After Effects CC(2014) but if i filter by "previous versions" i see only Edge Animate CC and Gaming SDK
    No way to see After Effects CC(12)!
    Maybe because i'm using the italian version of Creative Cloud? I don't figure out how to change the Creative Cloud language, if i change language in english (in the Preference / Apps tab) this affects only the language of the downloaded apps, not the Creative Cloud itself... DUring the installation process of Creative Cloud there isn't any choice to select a language...
    Why a simple thing like this is getting so hard...

  • Can't find After effects in CC

    It's not there and where is premiere pro CC

    Premiere Pro and After Effects both require a 64 bit processor and 64 bit operating system.
    If you're running 32 bit then you will not be able to download or install PP or AE since they will not run on your system.

  • I can't find After Effects in Adobe Creative Cloud Application List ?

    What should I do ?

    Your computer doesn't meet the system requirements:

  • How can I use After Effects filters on a whole sequence without getting stuck in After Effects?

    It appears that, with the options that are visible to the user, Dynamic Link only goes one-way and can't make round trips from Premiere Pro to After Effects and back again.  If I send a sequence to After Effects, that part works fine and I can do what I want and save the comp.  However, even though the comp appears as an asset in Premiere Pro, I am not allowed to do anything with it.  If I try to drag it to a new sequence, it just says no.  If I click "Create Sequence from Clip" it creates an empty sequence.
    So how can I use After Effects on whole sequences/tracks instead of just on a clip-by-clip-by-clip-by-clip-by-clip basis?  is this possible?  For instance, if I have a whole sequence where I've neutralized the white balance, I might want to apply a warming filter to the whole thing as a unit.  That would be really painful with even a few clips to keep doing that again and again, and if you want to modify it slightly you have to do it over and over.  If there is a way to do that through Dynamic Link through some hidden option, what happens with the audio?  Would I have to cut it out of the lower sequence and paste it into the higher sequence with the After Effects comp as a video track?

    I'm not an Adoby guy, hence you may ignore my reply, but Adobe Dynamic Link is obviously not just one way ticket and in most cases works just fine.
    You have already been explained by J-MS and tclark513 how to properly use it and which pitfalls may occur.
    So as to apply an effect onto a whole sequence or a group of clips you need to either nest them in PrPro or pre-compose them in AE. Then just apply an effect (or several ones) onto that composition.
    So, if you nest clips in PrPro, select your nested sequence in the timeline, right-click and choose 'Replace with After Effects Composition'. Done! Your dynamically linked AE composition is in the right place in your timeline and in your Project panel as well. If you can not treat it as an ordinary footage, there are obviously some mistakes in your workflow. 
    If you didn't nest your sequence or a group of clips in PrPro before replacing them with AE composition, you may easily do it within AE. Just select all the layers in AE composition and choose Layer -> Pre-compose... (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+C) Done! Switch back to your Master comp and apply your desired effect(s) 
    You may loose some effects or/and transitions while travelling from PrPro to AE via Adobe Dynamic Link, whereas you don't while travelling back
    (If you start building your AE composition from scratch right in AE and then need to import it into PrPro, DO NOT export one as PrPro project out of AE, but rather choose Adobe Dynamic Link -> Import After Effects Composition... within PrPro)
    P.S. And yes, submit a feature-request so that Adobe will convert 'Transparent Video' into fully functional 'Adjustment Layer'.

  • How can I install after effects on 32 bit operating system?

    How can I install after effects on 32 bit operating system?
    I cant even find it in creative cloud.
    I want to make  a intro but it dossent allow me to even find/ istall it.
    I hope some one will help me by anwsering my question.
    Than you for time.

    If your system does not meet the minimum system requirements you have to go back to a version that does. Try the direct download links you'll find here.. CS5 comes bundled with CS4 for AE which is the last  version to run on a 32 bit system.

  • I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but can't it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    You cannot drag the effects themselves to the timeline.  You add them to a clip in the Viewer, just as you have done. 
    If the clip was already in the timeline when you  opened it in the Viewer (by double-clicking it in the timeline to open it in the Viewer) and then added the reverb effect, there is nothing further to do, you have added the effect to the clip.  You don't drag it back to the timeline.
    You only have to drag the clip to the timeline if the clip was not already in the timeline (for example, if you opened the clip from the FCE Browser; or set different In and Out points in a master clip to use a different portion of the master clip in a different location in your timeline).
    Depending on the effect you add, you may have to render the timeline after adding the effect.  But I don't think reverb requires immediate rendering.  One other note, you said you were working with an audio clip ... audio clips need to be AIFF (not MP3 or something else) and preferably 16-bit stereo.
