Can't open my project, help please...

I've spent hours and hours on my wedding video project... When I was working on it, iMove suddenly crashed and then I can't open the project any more...
I can't open, edit, duplicate and export the project. It allows me to play it in full screen but the content is incomplete.
My other two projects are fine.
I tried to reinstall iMovie (delete the program and com.apple.pkg.iMovieXXXX files, and reinstall and update) but it didn't help...
I tried to repair the disk permissions but it didn't help...
Could anyone please save me and my project..
I was using Lion and iMovie 11 with the latest updates. My labtop is MBP 15'' mid-2010.
Thanks!

Anyone could help me please ???

There is nothing that anyone here on a user forum can do to help you. If it is a local issue in Syria, then you need to take it up with your phone company or authorities there who have prevented you from using VPN.
Nobody here can help you.

Can't open iTunes! Help, please. Very frustrated

I need help. I tried Apple Tech Support. They walked me through all sort of steps after 45 minutes being on the phone, we were disconnected. You would think they would call me back! **** no. So here it goes. A month or so ago, when I connected my iPod to the computer, iTunes opened with a "new version" to download. Okay, It instructed me to delete all iTune programs on the computer. So, I did. BIG MISTAKE. When I try to download iTunes, a window comes up to "Repair" or "Delete". If I select Repair, I get a message; c:\Programs\iTunes\cdconfiguration\gcdrll.cfg. After I cancel that, I tried again. This time I picked "Delete". This time I get a message; c:\Programs\iTunes\cdconfiguration\getlasterror: 5. I can't get my iTunes back. I'm very upset as I have pruchased a lot of music. I can't do anything with my iPod. Can some one help me please? Sad that I can't get Apple to help.
I greatly appreciate any help you can supply me.
Thank you 8(

Hard drive died. Wrote back-up image to new drive, but can't open Adobe. Help, please.

I own Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional. This software can be installed on two computers.
The hard drive in one of my two computers died. Fortunately, I've been doing full-image back-ups (which include the operating system) to an external hard drive. I copied the most recent image (a few hours old) onto the new hard drive.
I can't open Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional from new hard drive. It's telling me that I already have installed it twice and that I'm requesting a third installation which isn't permitted.
How do I get a usable copy Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional on the new hard drive?
Do I perform a Windows Control Panel "Delete" on the program and re-install it from scratch?
Or, is there another procedure?
OR, am I SOL?
Thank you,
Julie

You don't mention the backup software you use, but it would SEEM that it is missing the "hidden" registration files on your hard drive
I use multiple boot drives, via drive swap hardware, making and restoring backups each time I test new software... really easy to go back to "before install" by swapping a drive or restoring a backup... described at http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM
The backup software I use is at http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/image-for-linux.htm - the program includes a "makedisk" routine to make a bootable CD, so the software runs on Linux, completely outside Windoze, and goes direct to the hardware controller, not through the Windoze drivers
This creates a COMPLETE image to an external USB hard drive, and the restore works with all registration information intact

Can't Open a File - help, please

I have a file in Flash that I was working on. I had to
restart my computer, and that file was open when I did this. Now,
whenever I try to open the file, it tells me there's not enough
memory to open it, but that the file's not damaged.
The thing is, since last opening the file, I didn't change it
much, and also, when I opened it last, I had many more windows and
programs open than I do when I try to open it now. Does anyone know
what's going on and/or how I can fix it and not lose the file? I've
been working on it for a while now...

I never have that problem before, but what I can say is:
6.46MB FLA is not BIG, I got some FLA more than 50MB, & I
can open it in laptopo with P4 processor & 512MB RAM
I worry it is corrupted. To make sure this, try open the file
at another computer.
If you have the last published swf, decompile it back to FLA,
it might save part of your work.

Mine does the same thing occasionally, is your phone jailbroken? Sometimes it will work if you delete the book and reinstall it or put your phone into airplane mode then turn it back off.

Premier Element 8 can't open any project on Windows 7

Once again my Premier Element 8 can't open any project on Windows 7 (64-bit). This is same problem that happened to me 6 months ago. I reported it to the online Adobe support, but got no help. Eventually I worked around it on my own. Now the problem is back and I can not open any project, even after rebooting. The behavour that I see is that I can open a new or old project, but the Premier window shows-up as having zero size. The bug has something to do with the Premier program thinking that the window size should be zero. The program shows-up in the active task list, and the Alt-Tab key shows Premier window has only a window title bar (where as other active programs show-up as a thumbnail image of their window contents), and the system taskbar also shows the Premier program as active but only as a window title bar (see attached image below)
When I reported to the online Adobe support forum 6 months ago that I had worked around the problem, the answer was something like "good that you fix it", BUT Adobe did not seem to be interested in understanding and fixing the problem. They just seem relieved when customers can figure-out work-around on their own. I see that another peron just reported this same problem on the Adobe forums, and got the same treatment. He also found a work-around, and the support person replied when "that's nice". This really bites me where it hurts. I'm burning non-productive hours because of their bugs, and they don't care enough about the bugs to get engineering to fix them. It's things like this that make me look for another software vendor.
But today I really do need to work on my video project. If there is a document work-around for the "Premier show a zero-sized window" bug, PLEASE let me know about it.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,
-- Ole Pa

Hi Steve,
Thanks for looking at this on Saturday, and for your question. What I mean by a "zero sized window" is that Premier's window has been created and the program is running, but when I give Premier focus nothing is shown on the screen. I know the program is running because I can see it on the Windows taskbar, in the Alt-Tab list, and in the task manager's list of running programs. When I use the Windows taskbar to alternately show and hide the window, it behaves normally, except when I show it nothing shows on the screen. Also, when Premier starts up, I do see it loading the project, but when the project loads the window disappears. Premier has this annoying design of starting with its window maximized, and then automatically resizing the window to what it thinks is the size that I want. When the bug is active, the size seems to be zero, or minimized, or off the screen, or who knows what. Just not anything that I can see. The little thumbnail that Windows 7 shows of running programs on the taskbar makes be think the window has been resized so that it is zero pixels wide and zero pixels high.
In my earlier report of this bug, I described it as "minimizing to the taskbar" because that is what it appeared to doing at that time. Here is a link to my earlier report:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/704857
That thread has screen snapshots that show the visual atrifacts of the bug on Windows 7. I experienced the same bug again this morning. The workaround that I had done last year did not work this morning. Here is what I did to recover this time:
Uninstalled Premier Elements 8. Deleted my personal setting, and also "smart sound".
Rebooted my PC.
Installed Premier Element 8 from the CD.
Rebooted my PC
Things were still not quite right. In fact the bug appeared to still be there, but all of a sudden it started showing me the window after the project was loaded. Sigh. I will never launch that little startup program again (the one behind the desktop icon), and only open ".prel" files directly. Not sure if that will help or not, but at least it takes one variable out of the startup procedure.
I wish that I could tell you how to reproduce the bug, but in fact I do not know what I do to provoke it. My PC is
- Dell XPS9000 (Intel i7, 3.33GHz, 12GB ram, 4.5 TB disk)
- Windows 7 Ultimate
- Two 24 inch LCD displays
- Runs several Adobe programs (like PS, LR, Acrobat).
Don't get me wrong: I love Adobe software. You are the best in the graphic arts industry. That's why I buy and run your stuff. But when I have a deadline hanging over my head, and I have to spend 1/2 day getting the software to just come up, I get crazy and want to herd feed animals for a living! Maybe I'll have to do that if the economy does not improve in 2011...
Thanks, Ole Pa

HT203477 Can't open my project after FCP X 10.0.7 crash

Can't open my project after FCP X 10.0.7 crash. Backup file is missing, Autosave Vault too. Pro Maintenance Tools does not fix the problem. The event and media are ok. I have crash log and CurrentVersion.fcpproject. Please help, it's very big project.

And here are the last crash logs if it can be of any help:

This crash seems to have been caused by a corrupt project file. You can attempt to repair the project with Project Repair, but you will most likely need to restore from a backup or autosave (note that the corruption may have spread to recent autosaves).

Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Old Logic + a new Mac = can't open old projects anymore. De/re-install?

Hi everybody,
maybe someone can advise me with this problem:
I bought a new Mac recently, did install a fresh OSX 10.5 and then used migration assistant to transfer my old user account from my old Mac (10.4), incl. all files. It did take a night, but it worked - or so I thought. Actually all applications work as they should, except for Logic. I had to re-authorize a few plug-ins, but then all seemed to be cool. I can open a new project, record audio, midi, add plug-ins, all cool. But I ended up with 3 problems, which are really annoying:
1) EXS24 couldn't find most of the samples anymore. Most, not all. I have 4 internal HDs, one for the system, one for audio recordings, one for samples, one for "other stuff". 2 of these disks came from the old Mac, 2 new ones, content copied from old Mac. In the EXS prefs I set "search for samples" to "all volumes", but it still didn't work perfectly. Finally I bought EXSManager Pro and now it seems to work again. I didn't try ALL samples yet, but the +/- 20 EXS instruments I tried, did load all samples.
2) Space Designer doesn't load impulse responses for the presets anymore. They're there and at the right place. I can load SD and import an existing impulse file, no problem. But the presets don't find the required files anymore.
3) Now - and this is the worst one - I can't open old projects anymore. I just can't. It starts loading, I see the rainbow thing (don't know the right word), it turns black & white and that's it. You can watch this forever and nothing happens.
Regarding all 3 issues:
I don't get any error messages. Logic doesn't crash, I can't click 'apple-.' to stop loading/searching. It just doesn't open the file. I had a coffee, a pizza, I let it try for 2 hrs+, but neither did it load a SD preset or an old song file. All I can do is manually quit Logic.
But when I open Logic with the CTRL-button down and click "no" to core audio I can open all songs. Of course I can not hear a tone then, but it's all there. Opening a song takes 3 secs then. I tried to safe a song then with a different name, re-started Logic with core audio but same result. It get's "stuck".
Of course I checked user permissions and all the usual trouble shooting clicks, but still Logic has a mind of it's own. I installed a 2nd user with admin rights, though still the same, plus all the 3rd party plug-ins refusing to work.
Now I was thinking, should I de-install Logic and re-install from the original CDs maybe. And if so, is there anything special I have to take care of? Like manually removing any prefs or cache files?
Or completely re-install the whole Mac? (pleeease no....)...
If anybody has any idea, it'd be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance and for the energy to read my little novel here,
cheers,
Joern

Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
Two questions, every idea would be great!
- Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
- Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
Thank you again,
Joern

Can't open a project who has a merged clip in it

I have 2 Macs using Premiere Pro CC, same version. On one of my 2 Mac, i can't open any project who has merged clips in it. It shows this error message. : "this project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with thi sequence type". It shows this even if there is no sequence in the project. It happens only if i have a merged clip. it could even be a merged audio clip. What can i do?

Hello Spadrille,
It sounds like your application is not activated. Try this: Open a new project in Premiere Pro. Choose Help > Decativate > Restart Premiere Pro. Then choose Help > Activate. See if that solves your problem.
Thanks,
Kevin
