Cannot Link Media CS4 to CS5

Hi guys apologies if something similar has already been posted, I have spent a few hours searching & not found the info I need.
I just installed CS5 on a new machine & was trying to open a project that I have already started in CS4.
The project requests as normal to assign moved data files (AVIs in this case) however once selected I get the message:
Cannot Link Media The selected files cannot be link because it type (Audio) does not match the originals files type (Audio and video).
I have tried skipping that step and opening the project anyway then right clicking the off line media to replace footage.. this now only replaces my audio.. I really need both.
I shoot on HDSLRs & convert the files to CineForm AVI, I thought AVIs audio & video were linked?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks

Ok so I got it working for anyone else who may come across this problem.. What you have to do is install Neo CineForm. Simple I suppose as it needs the codec.

Cannot Link Media

I apologize if there's already a topic about this. I browsed through and didn't see any.
I'm using CS5 Premiere Pro for the first time in my digital video class. We work on Macs in the classroom and I've downloaded a trial of the program for my laptop which runs Windows 7. However, when I try to open the file that I've worked on in class, I get an error that says "Cannot Link Media: The selected file cannot be linked because its type(audio) does not match the original file's type(audio and video)." What do I need to do to fix this? I need to be able to work on this project at home.

MPEG is not standard (that would be DV AVI) and it requires licensed processes to edit... and Adobe is not going to pay the license fee for you to use the software for free
There is a 30 day return on Adobe software, if you buy and it won't work
Be aware that editing on an average laptop is not going to work

Issues linking media in cs3 project opened in cs5.5

So trying to help out a co-worker with a project that was originally created in Premiere Pro 2. Taking that to CS 5.5 we are having issues linking AVI files. In Premiere Pro 2 and in CS3 premiere has no problem seeing the avi as an audio file or isn't bothering with what format they are in. But in CS5.5 we get the Cannot Link Media The selected file cannot be linked because its type(video) does not match the original file(audio).
When you look at the avi files through media info there is only audio information no video information. I am not sure how these audio avi files were created either in the first place.
But what would be the best way to get these files working in CS5.5? would it be best to just get all the audio avi files and convert them to an audio format(wav, mp3, wma) then replace them so we don't loose the edits? Or is there a way we can tell premiere to just use the file anyway?
The simple and/or quickest solution would be the best.

Thats what I figured should be done but I was hoping for a lazier solution. Thank you.

I am trying to install the cs5 upgrade on my new laptop, however, I cannot locate my cs4 program to install first. Am I out of luck?

You do not need the older version installed in order to install the upgrade version, but you do need the serial number from CS4 to prove that you qualify for using CS5. During the activation process for CS5, after you successfully enter the CS5 serial number you will be asked to select the qualifying version (CS4) from a list and to enter its serial number.
If you registered CS4 when you originally installed it then you might be able to find the serial number available in your Adobe account online in the Products section.
Find your serial number quickly

Cannot deinstall ps cs4 and bridge cs5 open all files in CS4 instead of Cs5

I temporarily could not make the Eastman Kodak ROC Professional plug-in work in my PS CS5 so I tried other programs to use this plug-in in. I therefore installed an old PS Elements 5 and PS CS4 (my present PS CS5 is bougth as an update from CS4) . However now the plug-in works fine in my PS CS5 and I of course prefer to work in this. I have, however, acquired a new problem: The only way I can open picture files in PS CS5 is via the files menu in Photoshop itself. If I try to open via Bridge (and it is Bridge CS5) I can only open the files in PS CS4. I cannot deinstall PS CS4. Bridge CS5 states that "open in PS CS4 is the default action".
Sorry if this is a foolish question.

Sorry not to have reacted to the above for so long. Even after doing as you proposed things did not work. In the end I (after the Christmas Holidays) I did reinstall the pc - changed from Vista to windows 7. I do not know what caused the problem initially but at least I think I can conclude that one should not install the cs4 software after having installed cs5. Thank you for your support.

Media Encoder Issues After Upgrade from CS4 to CS5

I've been running CS4 and doing encoding to .flv and .f4v formats for sometime now without any issues. I downloaded Photoshop CS5 and then the entire design CS5 suite soon after. Since then, I can not encode videos properly. Both CS4 Media Encoder and CS5 Media Encoder export audio with no video.
Any ideas of what might have happened? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Justin

You shouldn't be running version 5.5 of the Camera Raw plug-in in CS4 either. Update to ACR 5.7 ASAP.
One should ALWAYS run the LATEST release of ACR for your version of Photoshop, no exceptions. Each new release brings unheralded, unannounced and sometimes even unacknowledged bug fixes and improvements, beyond support for newer cameras.
Staying with an older version just because your camera is already supported by it is a very<euphemism>unwise</euphemism> decision.

Dynamic Link Media Server Cannot be Found-

Hi, everybody:
I am trying to retouch two video files in Photoshop CS6 Extended for Mac OS X, and I cannot find the dynamic link media server. I never had this problem before. It says a component is missing. I downloaded the update to the server and I even re-installed Photoshop Extended CS6. I have the Master Collection. I also have anti-virus software that I have turned off. It still does not work. Can family filters for my family be the cause of the server not being found? Thanks for the help and I do really appreciate it.

High pitch noise in CS4 and CS5.5

Hello.
Firstly I want to say that yes I know people have asked this question before but as far as I can tell none of them have been solved. Some have somewhat useful answers but none of them truely solve the problem. This thread in particular probably has the most information about the problem I'm having http://forums.adobe.com/message/4298535#4298535
I recently tried Premiere Pro CS5.5 and CS4 (trial version) to replace my Corel Video Studio X6 which tried to replace Windows Movie Maker. Video Studio and Movie Maker both crash whenever I imported large video files.
Anyway I'm getting a problem where the video files I import to Premiere Pro CS4 and CS5.5 have a high pitch noise in the video preview.
It's a high pitch noise almost like it's getting feedback from something. Also when someone is supposed to be talking there's a very low distortion, like the audio started playing in very slow motion but the high pitch noise is still present.
I'll put a link at the end with the video file that's giving me trouble.
The video and audio are in a single AVI file. The video format is H264 shot at 60fps and the audio should be Mpeg-1 L2, 48khz at 320kbps. I don't know if the video's audio is in 24bit or 16bit.
I've tried different settings for premiere. Trying 60fps and 30fps for the framerate for the project. Trying 44khz and 32khz and 96khz didn't fix it. Using the "Desktop" preset in CS4 and Custom for CS5.5.
My audio hardware is a Logitech G930. It's a wireless USB headset with microphone. My motherboard audio is Realtek HD Audio. Both are enabled but I only use the headset now and nothing is being sent to the Realtek audio chip (according to Windows' sound options). The headset plays audio at 16bit 48khz.
The video file plays fine in every media program I own that can play the h264 codec. With the exception of Movie Maker and Video Studio x6. Video Studio will preview the video and audio just fine but when I try and skip around the program hangs and crashes. Movie Maker just plain crashes when I try and import the video. Some of the programs that can play the video are VLC, Media Player 11, and Media Player Classic.
I'm not sure if Final Cut Pro has the same problem. I don't have a Mac so I can't test it.
Here's a sample video that works the way it should. I pulled a BIK file from a game and converted it to H264 in AVI. Not sure what it's audio format is.
http://www.mediafire.com/watch/15fr85n78xfu94x/Opening_Cinematic_Placeholder.avi
Just click the download button at the top right.
Here's an afflicted file. Not the exact specific file I have been talking about, but it has the same codecs. This one is shorter in length and smaller in size. It still has the high pitch noise, but since there is no one talking in this you don't hear the weird low pitch distortions.

Contribute 6.5 can not ftp after years of no issues with CS4 and CS5

The problem
Contribute 6.5 can not connect via ftp using settings that formerly worked (and still do) in CS4 and CS5.
How we ended up here
I am the administrator website where
Our content editors have been using Contribute CS 4 and Contribute CS 5 without issue, 6+ years.
We are trying to upgrade to CS 6.5 to better support HTML5 markup now used within the site.
When attempting to configure a website connection in 6.5, Contribute alerts:
"Contribute cannot find the website files on the server. Please contact the website's administrator for assistance."
After closing the dialog box the failed connection is removed from contributes website connection list.
We have a shared hosting account and utilize ftp to publish changes.
Server is Win2008 with IIS 7.5
Again it's shared hosting, so read/write ftp are scoped to our account's directory.
We attempted this on serveral pcs including on a PC with a fresh install of Windows 7.
We can still connect successfully via ftp with CS4, CS5, dreamweaver, and Filezilla.
Which is why I believe this to be a Contribute 6.5 issue.
I've attempted the following troubleshooting articles:
Use network I/O logging to log operations, identify problems
I compared the I/O logging for both CS5 and CS 6.5 which both appear to log the same diagnostic steps.
Contribute FTP Server Checker (quite dated)
All successes reported. No failures.
Troubleshooting a Connection CS4 (linked from with CS 6.5's help UI)
As indicated above, alternate FTP clients have no issue.
This appears to be similar issue to the following posts:
5301620 - HELP - FTP Connection Error with Contribute 6.5
5907180 - Contribute 6.5 can no longer connect to sites ...
Unfortunately, there has been no solutions posted on either of these threads.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can PM the network I/O log details if there is adobe staff who can get them in the right hands.
(Again the logs only show successes.)

@Zaldomoh
Have you found a solution or been given assistance from Adobe to resolve this issue? I'm having the same problem (CS 6.5 ftp'ing to a shared hosting enviroment). Details of our situation can be found on thread 1384686

SEO changes from CS4 to CS5

My site that mainly has Flash was recently updated with a file made from CS5. In my google dashboard there are a lot of new keywords that are only in the Flash file. My page ranking also dropped from 4 to 11. Does anyone know if any changes from CS4 to CS5 could have caused this? If so, what can I do to disable this compatibility with search engines?

I am not an expert on SEO matters and do not keep up with advancements relative to it. It is unlikely the Flash version has anything to do with your SEO rankings. SEO is based on the information that the engines can see when they read the page. You should be able to see the words you mention listed in the embedding code if they are being included in your dashboard. Flash will create comment tags in the html for different key elements in a file such as links used and whatnot. As far as I know, they cannot yet see inside the Flash file, only the external embedding code that is used.

Printing proofs w/ Pantone in CS4 vs CS5

Good days all,
I have found that our proof out came out with different.
The file was created in Illustrator CS4 and proceeded in CS5.
The file includes;
1. One PSD link file includes two pantone in channels
2. Blur effect for the drop shadow
3. general designed layout
EPS file was created base on above condition and sent to our RIP (ORIS) / Printed in Epson7900.
We have tried with embedded images and linked images but same printout.
Then we notify that the color proofs printed with somewhat different different pantone value.
the pantone color that originally created in PSD file has one pantone that not flat color but screened effect + another pantone with 100%.
We tried with opening Original CS4 file to create EPS file for printout and they are printing different pantone value.
Same pantone but different print out result.
My question is is there different pantone engine in CS4 vs CS5 when they print transparence + overprint effect?
what should be resolved to have the CS5 to become more like CS4 EPS output?
I hope I make myself clear on this.
Is anybody has similar problem?

We are not aware of any invalid PostScript being generated by InDesign 8 (CS6). However, from release to release of Adobe software, we definitely make changes in the generated PostScript (and similarly exported PDF and EPS) to account for new or updated features and to fix anomalies in previous releases.
It is possible that the Xerox FreeFlow VI Design Pro software is modifying the PostScript generated by InDesign (perhaps to merge variable data in some way?) and is doing so based upon pattern matching that works with the PostScript generated by InDesign 6 (CS4) but not with InDesign 8, yielding modified PostScript which is then rejected by whatever PostScript interpreter is ultimately processing that modified PostScript.
Your “mailing programmer” might want to contact Xerox to ascertain whether they may have an update to their software.

Installation/uninstall issues between CS4 and CS5

I had CS4 installed. I purchased CS5 (downloaded it) installed that. When I got the disks via mail, I tried to install that version (disk version). I started having issues as to which program would open a .prproj file. Often the CS4 version of Premiere Pro opened. Not what I wanted. I eventually uninstalled CS5 entirely and then reinstalled. Then things were working fine. However, I then tried to uninstall CS4. (I have seen from numerous posts/comments to leave both on -- which I really don't know why. Doesn't make sense to keep both versions). I prefer not to have an extra 4GB of space used for programs I am no longer using. However, in doing so, the uninstall didn't appear to do a perfect job. And now I can't double-click a .prproj file. This icon is also blank white. I went into Set Associations and I can't assign .prproj to Premiere CS5. In looking at the Open With window, I notice that some of the icons for other Adobe programs are all splewy (Adobe Encore is using the CS4 icon, Adobe Illustrator is using the PDF icon, Flash Catalyst is using the Air icon, etc.)
I could: a) uninstall everything, including Adobe Acrobat Pro (which I had purchased and installed prior to CS4 or CS5) and then reinstall everything -- sheesh that would take a while; or b) I could ask my friends here to explain and guide me!

Hi Stix, Thanks.
I am not so positive that there is no difference between the download version vs the media version specifcially because in downloading the updates, the site demands you choose your update depending on how your software was installed. I figured that the download would be smaller. Perhaps you are right. And maybe it is the same, in either case, when I get a stack of disks, I tend to think there is more on the disk and the download version is merely the core applications.
Anyway, I had to uninstall everything CS4 and CS5 and then reinstall CS5. Oddly, this didn't automatically fix my problem. However, at least I was able to choose Premiere CS5 to open .prproj files and check off the box to use it as the default. (I wasn't able to before). So now it works!
