Color Finesse 2.1 crashes After Effects every time I open it

I've downloaded the latest version 2.1.12, and am using an HD720p clip in After Effects CS4 on a MacPro.
Anyone know what I can do?

I've been researching older bug reports for Color Finesse 2.1 and can't find anything that applies to your situation. Version 2.1.12 has fixes for some bugs that give similar symptoms, but you're already running that.
One thing to check is to make sure that you don't have a mix of versions of Color Finesse. Make sure that when you run the 2.1.12 installer that you manually point the installer to the After Effects Plug-ins folder. It won't find it automatically, and with CF 2.1 that can give you a mismatch between the plug-in and the UI app. That shouldn't crash, but it also won't work right.
Also, if you can send us the crash reports we can analyze those and see what we can figure out. Send them to support "at" synthetic-ap "dot" com.

Aperature crashes/force quit every time I open it

Aperature crashes/force quit every time I open it since the first time I installed it - Can anyone assist with troubleshooting this?

My Aperture/Photoshop workflow paged out on my MBP even with 8 GB RAM. Personally I recommend simply upgrading to 16 GB RAM immediately. The limited RAM may or may not be the direct cause of your SBBOD but it is very likey that your MBP is paging out, and paging out is very slow which often does cause problematic operation.
If you want to evaluate whether or not you currently have adequate RAM on board:
Look at the Page Outs number under System Memory on the Activity Monitor app before starting a typical Aperture work session and write the number down. Recheck the Page Outs count after working and write the number down again. If the page outs change (manual calculation of ending page outs number minus starting page outs number) is not zero your workflow is RAM-starved.
Ignore the pie charts and other info in Activity Monitor because they are often misleading regarding RAM usage. For RAM analysis, manually count page outs.
If your test showed that page outs increased during operation you can
• add RAM, very strongly recommended
• and/or simply try to run Aperture by itself after restarting, a workaround
• Restart before Aperture work sessions to clear possible memory leaks
Personally IMO maxxing out RAM to 16 GB from OWC or Crucial is a no-brainer at today's prices. More and more, app and OS designers are (rightfully) designing to take advantage of lots of RAM.
At 60% full your HDD is not overfilled but HDDs slow as they fill so IMO you should replace it with a larger drive SSD/HDD when it gets ~70% full. Also you may want to consider moving to a Referenced-Masters workflow with the Masters on external drives to keep your internal drive from overfilling.

New Macbook Pro, Safari crashing after update, every time

I am a fairly new Mac user. I have had my macbook pro for 4 months. Three days ago, I got a window popping up that asked if I would like to update now. I hit ok, went back to making dinner. A few hours later, i opened safari. It opened to yahoo, i then went to mail, and then hit my facebook bookmark. Safari froze. I got the circle thing and it sat like that for 5 minutes. I finally forced quit and hit the report problem. It has done the same thing now for 3 days, only now it freezes the minute i hit any any link at all, immediately!!! I thought it may have something to do with the new Lion thing (i am really a novice) so I bought that and installed it yesterday. Still same thing. Firefox works fine. I am using that now. Nothing else seems affected other than Safari. The only add on i have ever put on safari that i know about is lastpass. i can't even get to my safari pref now b/c it locks up before i can hit it. I even tried going to apple and redownloading safari. I don't know how to uninstall and reininstall. Can anyone help?

The only add on i have ever put on safari that i know about is lastpass.
That's most likely the glitch.

CS3 crashes, every time I open it

Flash cs3 crashes on me every time I open it. Sometimes I can open a file before it crashes and sometimes it crashes even if it's just the software that's open.
The message I get is the generic Windows "Flash has closed unexpectedly would you like to send an error report, sorry for the inconvenience"...
It makes it hard to get any work done when the software won't run properly.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

You could try re-installing the software - ...or you could try calling tech support and wait on hold for an hour or two before someone from another part of the world tries to walk you through a couple more hours of frustration before telling you they've tried everything they know - "maybe it's your computer"...
Sorry if I sound synical, but I just spent $1800 on a full e-Learning suite that won't load, and I've spent two full days back and forth and on hold with Adobe's so-called support to no avail - and now it "must be my computer causing a conflict..."
So... "I could try re-installing the Operating System and wiping the computer clean" (and re-installing ALL of my previous softwares), and that might help...
Good luck with your issue... At least they "apologize for the inconvenience" when it crashes...

Element 3D is crashing After Effects?

Hello everybody!
I recently purchased Video Co-Pilot's plugin for Adobe After Effects, Element 3D, but much to my amiss, it does not work. The first time I tried to open the scene setup, it said, "Element 3D has encountered an unrecoverable error."
I closed After Effects, and opened it back in hopes of trying again. But this time, when I apply Element 3D to a solid, it tells me "After Effects has stopped working" and I am forced to close the program.
Nothing has changed yet, every time I try to add Element 3D to a solid it crashes After Effects. I updated my graphics driver, re-installed Element 3D, everything I can think of, but to no avail.
If anyone could offer some speculance as to what's happening, that would be amazing.
My system specs:
Acer Aspire 5349
2 GB RAM
250 GB HDD
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
DirectX 11
Intel HD Graphics

Thank you so much for responding!
After Effects actually runs very well on my PC, considering I do have the minimum requirements. I am able to run Optical Flares, as well as Trapcode Particular perfectly.
I'm fairly young, so I apologize, but how can I update my graphics card to meet Element 3D's requirements?
Thank you all for you help.
My Graphics specs. Not sure if this will help, but I thought I'd post anyway.

Had to start Firefox in safe mode cause it kept crashing after i deleted the file. Now Fire fox Crashes every time I open it and I have to put it in safe mode just to use it, also it's not syncing with my iPad.

If you use Norton software, try disabling your Norton extensions. As of last week, there were severe compatibility issues with Firefox 24.

Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing!

Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

After installing Mavericks on my iMac, Apple Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account. Now Mail crashes every time I open it. What's up?

After installing Mavericks on an imac, Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account. After I clicked on All Mail the program crashed and now it crashes every time I open Mail. Does anyone have an suggestions?

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Maybe find a local who can translate for you. I don't know what to tell you for dealing in another country for service on your computer.
I can offer you something you can do if you want to give it a try. You'll need a backup of your data in your Home folder because you need to erase the drive. You'll also need a solid, preferably fast, internet connection.
Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
        the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.

Mail crashes every time it opens - after large send failed once

Issue: Mail crashes every time it opens. Problem started after a failed send on an e-mail with multiple photos attached. Can't see anything in outbox to delete.
Background: Family member initiated mail of several large photos from within iPhoto. Mail tried to send through Google mail and received error return that file was too large. Now every time Mail client opens - it crashes. Can't find anything in Outbox to delete. Tried deleting the Google Mail account and then reinstalling it. Still crashes.
System: A clean iMac - only a few months old with all updates on OS current. No 3rd party software or anything tricky.
Question: What to do next? Is there a place to look and delete this hung outbound e-mail at the system level - since don't see it in outbox. Should I move next to delete the Mail application and reinstall it? If so, is there another file to delete that might be holding this hung file or status?
Thanks

Hi usaf890, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this for safety...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
Then I'd backup your whole Mail folder, by right clicking on it in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place... only the plist is separate.
Quit Mail, then In your home folder, try moving this +folder & file+ to the Desktop then reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail
Move to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
If you wish to try the file angle, look in the finder for...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/type&name of [email protected]/Sent Messages.mbox/Messages/
then files like...
7404.emlx
Size or date may be a clue.

A few days ago(after a system restore) the firefox 15.0.1 crashes every time i opened(in a few secondes or in 1-2 minutes)

a few days (after a system restore )the firefox 15.0.1 chrashing and freezing every time i open it.in a safe mode i dont have any problem ,but i cant find if blame any addon or anything else.im unistalling and reinstall the update or older version(14 ,15.0)but the problem remain.what can i do?i have win 7 ultimate

If the problems arose after a restore from a Windows restore point you may need to resort to reinstalling Firefox, as sometimes Windows restores have been known to break Firefox.
Security software including Firewalls is another problem that can slow Firefox or cause it not to work. You need to ensure the security software recognises the current version of Firefox (Again I wonder if a Windows restore may have affected this also.)
* [[Configure Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access to the Internet]]
*also see [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix]]
If you are getting crashes are you able to provide the Crash IDs for a couple of recent crashes.
* see [[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]] <br/> they can be found by navigating to about:crashes
Also see
* [[Firefox does not work - Common fixes to get you back up and running]]
*[[Configure Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access to the Internet]]
Apparently you say there is no problem in Safe Mode, if so try Firefox with Hardware Acceleration off, if that helps then instead of leaving it off look at your graphics drivers.
* see [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems#w_turn-off-hardware-acceleration]]_turn-off-hardware-acceleration
* maybe your graphics driver rolled back on the restore, and needs reinstalling see [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

My Script Crashes After Effects - Blitpipe Error

Hi,
I have written a script for After Effects that opens a Dialog Window. It works fine the first time, but when I try a second time, it crashes with the following error. There's a lot going on with the script, so I'm not sure which part of the script is crashing After Effects. Does this error message give any indication of what it could be?
One other detail - it doesn't happen with my PC, but it is happening on my Mac.
Thank you.

Hi, can`t tell you without script example.
