CS3 freezes whil rendering #D object change Mac OS

Mac os10.57 Mackbook pro 2.4ghz 2gb memory. Creating a 3d object using rounding is not a problem. However. when I try to change size or shape of the object the rendering process isn't exactly forzen but I have let it go over several hours now and it is not done. presently it is on the renderingg visability phase, I have used the same file on a windows pc with no such problem.
I have uninstalled the program and killed all processes, and everything else in the beginning, intermediate and advanced troubleshooting process to no avail.... ~help?

Have you upgraded your video card say from the Nvidia 7300 to the
Nvidia 8800 by any chance?
If so you will not be able to boot from the Disk that came with your
Mac if you are running a Mac. Not saying this is your problem
but if it is then you have two choices one is to swap out the cards so
you have the Nvidia or earlier card version in the Mac or get a more
current disk which supports the new card.
if it is not that i would suspect some other upgrade.

New Mac Pro (late 2013) crashes / freezes while rendering or editing in Premiere Pro CC

We recently purchased a new Mac Pro desktop (Late 2013, 16GB memory, D700 Graphic Card, 2.7 GHz -12 Core, OSX 10.9.3) and we are running Adobe CC on it. When using Premiere Pro CC (7.2.2) I am having major issues while rendering and editing. About 50% of the time when I try to render it starts off real fast then just freezes. This happens in Premiere and Media Encoder. Sometimes I can just Force Quit Premiere or Media Encoder and other times I have to do a hard restart on the entire computer because the entire computer freezes. The computer will also occasionally freeze whenever doing simple editing or stacking layers. The computer will also just decide to suddenly stop and restart when editing or doing simple tasks like browsing the web. Additionally there has been several times if the render does finish, the final video will have digital glitches throughout the video. I have to redo the render once or twice and it will finally be fine. This all is happening several times a day. This never happened on our previous Mac Pro, but we were not running Mavericks. I used Migration Assistant to transfer from old computer to new computer. So I don't know if this is an a problem with the actual Mac Pro, Mavericks, graphic card or Adobe? But right now I am very frustrated as you can imaging spending all this money for a computer that has been giving us more issues than our previous computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

17 Macbook Pro, freezing while rendering video in FCP

Hi I have a late 2008 Model MacBook Pro 17. My Macbook keeps freezing during rendering in Final Cut Pro 7. Its been doing this for 3 weeks or so. I originally thought a SSD was the way to go, but I think I may really need a new processor. Im a little confused on what I should buy and what fits my MacBook Pro. What I want is to fix the rendering freezing and shorten the rendering time. I'd appreciate any advice or ideas. Is my Macbook compatible to a Intel i7 or i5? Buying a new Macbook Pro is not an option at this point. Thank you in advance.
Here are the specs on my laptop:
MacBookPro4,1
2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB RAM
500gb HDD Momentus 7200 SATA 3Gb/s
GeForce 8600M GT

Hi instantclassic99,
I do have this article of key combinations on startup:
Startup key combinations for Intel-based Macs
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1533
I would try this with a wired Apple keyboard if possible. Specifically, I'd try:
Press Option during startup
Start up in Startup Manager, where you can select an OS X volume or network volume to start from.
Cheers!

Java applet freezes while loading on Firefox on Mac OS 10.9

I am using Mac OS 10.9.4 with Firefox 32 and Java 7 update 67. The java applet freezes while loading for the first time. On double clicking, it loads successfully. Once the applet gets loaded then it loads successfully until the web-page is refreshed or cache is cleared. I don't see any error message or any errors in the java console logs. Any help on this issue, apart from the double click work around? Any permanent solution?

This delay can also happen when Java has been unloaded from memory and needs to be reloaded from disk and (re)initialized.

I Got a new MacBook Pro 2.2Ghz (Nov 2), with plenty of hard drive space left (80G), decided to create an iMovie which was great no problems here, then decided wanted to burn to DVD. Created a DVD using the Wedding 07 theme and then went to try and create the disc image.
The Mac freezes after about a 1/3rd of the way through while trying to render the menus, causing me to do a hard reboot. I read several topics in here, trying to fix it:
Deleting the com.apple.plist file
resetting the permissions,
using an older theme (got further but still froze after about 2/3rdss of rendering menu's).
Setting the chapter buttons to still's rather than moving images
All to no avail still cant get it to work.
I created another short iMovie, with no chapters, just one menu, put some pics in, music etc and that worked. This leaves me to believe the problem lies in having the chapters in the DVD.
I know quite a few of you have experienced this, has anyone found a way of getting around it or is it we have to wait until an update is released from Apple?

I've been having the same problem with my macbook pro since november. I've been watching these forums to see if anyone has figured out the problem but I can wait any longer so I called apple. I've spent at least 8 hours on 5 different phone calls with 5 different people over the last two weeks. My computer still is not fixed. And from the sounds of the people I've talked to, they have no idea that there is even a problem with some of the macbook pros. I have done everything that they can think of including completely erasing and reinstalling my operating system and testing idvd with a file sent to me from apple. I was able to narrow down my problem to having videos in the drop zones of submenus. I can burn a dvd with as many submenus as I want as long as there are pictures in the drop zones. It burns fine with a picture in the drop zone. I can even burn a dvd with video in one menu drop zone and pictures in the rest. It doesn't matter which menu the video is in, as long as there is only one menu drop zone with video the dvd will burn. Is anyone else getting the same result?

CS3 Removing effect from one object changes all other images on page-!???

I'm reusing an 80 page document that I created last year as the template for an updated version of the same document. There are images on almost every page. In the previous version of the document most images had a drop shadow applied, but this year I'm not using drop shadows so I've been deleting old photos or placing new images in old photo boxes and removing the drop shadow. No problem most of the time, but there are about 5 images in the document (scattered around randomly) that are problematic - when I either delete these or try to remove the drop shadow effect, all the other images on the page get darker (a lot darker). It's not specifically the drop shadow causing the problem - I can change the effect to any other with no change to the problem, it's just when I remove or clear all effects that the problem occurs. I even tried creating a new spread then cutting and pasting all but the problem image but it didn't work - everything was dark till I added the problem image. So weird and confounding! I've never seen this in either CS3, which I've been using for a few years, or any previous version of InDesign. The only workaround I've found is to move the problem images onto the pasteboard and keep them, but I'd rather not send the document to the printer like that. Has anyone seen this problem??? Hmm, the only thing I can think of is that I'm still using CS3 yet I upgraded my Mac OS to Snow Leapard (10.6.4). In fact, this isn't the only problem I've had with my CS3 Suite programs since I got my newer Mac. Maybe I just answered my own question, sort of. Still, has anyone seen that InDesign problem?

Thanks Peter! You're right about the problem images being the only ones on their pages. They are all grayscale though. Rob mentions that possibility. I Sounds from both your answers like the problem is probably with the transparency blend space. Unfortunately (or fortunately?), I've never had to set the blend space. My printers have always handled that part. I hope I can ask you this newbie question -- if all the images are grayscale what should the transparency blend space be? I assume it should be in CMYK since the doc will be printed offset and the printer will have the native files not a PDF. The doc's transparency blend space is set to CMYK. Rob seems to think this could be the problem but the only choices are RGB or CMYK as far as I can tell.

Acrobat 9.0 freezes while "Removing unused objects"

I am using Acrobat Pro 9.0 in a Windows 8.1 environment. When I attempt to convert a PDF I created to a Form the program freezes once I click SAVE and "Removing unused objects" appears. I have "repaired" and "reinstalled" the application but the problem persists.

Hi Mike,
I do have some startup items;
EyeTV Helper
AdobeResourcesSynchroni
I Love Stars
GrowlHelperApp
NikePlusUtil
EEvent Manager
EPSON Scanner Monitor
I don't have any haxies on anything.
I made a new user account and tried to replicate the problem but it seems to work fine when logged in as a different user which leads me to think it is a preference in my current user>library

Help. G Drive freezes while rendering, hard reboot only way out.

I have asked about this two prior times in forums.
When rendering in FCP X, the G-Drive loses communication with laptop. Freezes FCP X. Only way to unfreeze is hard reboot (pushing down power button). Convinced it was a dying G-Drive, I bought a new one, cloned the old one before running Disk Warrior. Same behavior on the new one, so it cannot be the drive. It is a 1TB G-Drive 7200rpm, connected via firewire 800. Spent 2.5 hours on the phone with Apple support, nothing. I do not think they could even understand the issue, and I talked to 4 different people. One of them told me you should always have projects and events on your internal OS drive for editing, not attach any external drives (no, I am not kidding). They seemed to all think I was using Aperture for some reason, weird, since I never mentioned that program and do not even own it.
I am a pro here, and I am not doing anything I should not be. I have run disk warrior on all disks involved. I have repeated this process in different projects with multiple types of media, making me think that the media is not corrupted. I have used disk utility several times, no errors or permission issues. I have trashed render files, preferences from the library, and re-installed FCP X.
I am now left to buying a new everything, but of course I cannot afford that
I read on G-Drive support page about these drives sometimes freezing up, but my issue does not relate to those.
I could really use a pro's pro or someone who has been down this road. I have been dealing with this since Tuesday, I dont have to tell you how far this has me behind.
2009 MacBook Pro
Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
G-Drive 1TB 7200 rpm, firewire 800 connection
G-Drive mini (the new one) 1TB 7200rpm firewire 800
editing AVCCAM 720p24fps, AVCCAM 1080p60fps, 720p30fps (all from various projects)

That is the next step I suppose. I had to pay $99.00 for the support on the phone, extra care just expired. Trying one more time this morning with phone support. Thanks Tom.
Still certain projects do not seem to have this issue. I also just installed the free trial of Pro Maintenance Tools, was not able to find any corrupt media.
It said from the crash reports that it may be the graphics card. The card in this computer is well suited for FCP X, but I suppose may be failing. I am under the impression you cannot upgrade this card on a MacBook Pro.

Freezes While Rendering!

Please i need help asap! i have a report due tommorow!
hey everyone,
i was making a green screen sequence in final cut and its done then when i choose render it goes a certain percentage (changes everytime usually before 20 percent) and then gives me the colored pinwheel. i was using an external but then i transfered to my comp alone... it still does the same thing. please i need help! what is going on!

can you render anything else ? (ie something else in the timeline that is not part of your greenscreen work)
some thoughts:
its possible that you have no disk space for the render (re-target your video render scratch directory)
you maybe have a permissions issue that is stopping the render from working (again, re-target your render scratch directory)
try also creating a new user account, opening your project in he new account and see if it will render

After Effects crashes while rendering

Hi all,
We have been experiencing regular crashes while rendering on 9 different Mac systems.
We would start the render and then, all of a sudden, AE would crash.
Trying to restart, AE hangs at MediaCore initializing.
We actually need to do a hard shutdown to get the machine to reboot.
So my question is:
Could AE not release the media cache upon crashing thus blocking us to restart the app without having to reboot the machine?
We are running AE in multiproc mode with 4 GB memory allocation, which actually uses 3 procs.
I have tried bringing the memory allocation down to 3 GB on some of the systems, but it doesn't seems to make much difference.
Finally, we do not crash every time we render. It is very random.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rene

Hey Todd,
Sorry for the late reply, answers below:
What exact version of After Effects? 12.2.0.52 but we also use CS 5.5 (mainly for the feature where you can send your camera information to C4D, something that is not in the CC version... pitty)
Have you installed the recent updates? This is the latest update...
What operating system? Mac OSX 10.8.5
Tell us about your computer hardware. 2 x 6 cores CPUS, 24 Gb RAM, ATI Radeon HD 5870 GFX, 5 internal drives (4 of them are part of internal hardware raid with internal raid controller)
What versions of drivers for your graphics hardware do you have installed? No CUDA since it is ATI, 01.00.436
Do you have any third-party I/O hardware : AJA Kona 3G with either driver 1.47 or 1.49
What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. It is a combination of a bunch of them: Animation codec into .mov wrapper, tga sequences, png files, we render to uncompressed .mov files for air.
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)? No, just the beach ball of death...
What were you doing when the problem occurred? They mainly occur when rendering sequences.
Has this ever worked before? It is very intermittent and does not happen every day. Plus, since we are in crunch time, AE is being used 24/7, so that may not help either.
What other software are you running? C4D, Photoshop, Illustrator, both in the CC and CS6 or CS5.5
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? We have sapphire and Knoll lens flare, but crashes happens if we use them or not.
Are you using OpenGL features in After Effects? Not to my knowledge.
Does the problem only happen with your final output, RAM preview, or both? Render
Are you using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing? Yes we do, most of the machines have it set with 4Gb memory allocation, but others have it set to 3 Gb.
Are you using the ray-traced 3D renderer? No, we are not.
If the problem is with output, give your exact output settings (both render setting and output module settings). Unfortunately, I do not have this as our artists are working and I cannot really stop them as we have things to get out to air for early morning. I will get this info next time we have the issue.
What is the exact sequence of steps that you are taking? Just sending the render out to the queue and starting and it will either crash to desktop or stay there doing nothing.
My biggest concern is why can't we just restart the app. It will always lock up while initializing MediaCore. We have our mediacaches set for 42 Gb on our main bootup drive, which is big enough to handle it. And after the crash, when we try to reboot, the machine will get to the grey Mac screen and just sit there. Have to hard shutdown the machine to have it come back up...
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks,
Rene

After Effects CS6 (11.0.4) freezes a MacPro (10.9.2-10.9.5) while rendering

Hi all,
we experience reproducable crashes of After Effects freezing the whole system while rendering.
AE-Version: 11.0.4 (CS6)
Mac OSX 10.9.2 (on a MacPro 2012 - same Problem on a MacPro 2013 with Mac OSX 10.9.5)
The Video-Card is a KONA LHi with Hardware-Driver 10.6.
Multiprocessing is turned on and we tried different configurations. (MacPro 2012 has 48GB RAM, MacPro 2013 64GB).
The Media Cache has been released.
Taking a look at the activity monitor I see that the "Adobe QT32 Server" does not respond right after starting After Effects.
That leaded me to the suspicion that some installed Quicktime-Codecs may be the cause.
Throwing away the AJA-Codecs located in "Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/" the Adobe QT32 Server runs fine but then I am unable to open the AE-Project properly.
Any suggestions are highly appreciated!
Thanks
Dankward

Hi Szalam,
the Codecs installed with the AJA-Driver are the latest so far.
Turning Multiprocessing off seems to help. The AE-Project that I got for testing doesn't crash anymore.
But rendering takes ages...
Thanks

Mac Pro CPU temperature while rendering

Hey there, I just recently got myself a Mac Pro 2009 with a stock CPU - quad 2.66. While rendering, my CPU temperature goes up to 71C/160F and fans are on their defaults. Im just wondering if this temperature is OK for fans to not kick in, or I should reset something? Thank you

By seeing all the thermal sensor readings, and fans, sometimes people have found an issue where the readings were not right - sensor was getting wrong reading or none -
Laptop like MacBook Pro can often have their fans running much harder to cool and deal with heat.
Those new Haswell chips are suppose to run even hotten, they may be providing Intel 4600 integrated graphics as well as cpu functions, PCIe and USB3 as well as memory controller. They are powerful and efficient - and you will see cpu spikes in utilization AND corresponding changes in temps. \
Same on Mac Pro but not as extreme. Opening apps and files can show 10*C jumps for 1/2 second.
If you are going to render, then sure do what helps the system stay cooler and in a safe(r) temperature range. Newer components are helping companies save $$ on cooling and being able to run servers and even disk drives by 5*C warmer making a huge change. Think Google, Facebook or NSA having large factory flooors housing equipment needing to be kept in temperature controlled environments.

While rendering a project in After Effects CC (Mac) , the application closes half way, saying it quit unexpectedly, Please Help!

So, I have created a cool project that was a lot of hard work in After Effects CC (Mac), While rendering a project in After Effects CC (Mac) , the application closes half way, saying it quit unexpectedly. Here is the link to an error log which is automatically recorded when After Effects crashes:- After Effects Crash (Mac) - Pastebin.com
I have tried to render this project at least 5 times, shutting and restarting my computer. Please Help!
Here is my computer specs if needed;
Operating System: Mac OS X Mavericks version 10.9.4 (13E28)
Processor: 2.5GHz Intel Core i5

Screen Resolution: 13-inch (1280 x 800)
Hard Drive: 500GB -- 186.49 GB free space.
Thanks

Element 3d renders using your graphics card. Unlike After Effects, what GPU you're using matters a lot for Element.
As it is, you don't really have one.
You could try rendering an image sequence and then picking up your render where it left off when it crashes, but if a certain frame is just too much for your computer to handle, there's not much we can help with. I'd suggest adding a GPU that Element can use.

I want to freeze frame while rendering and to continue

hey all
i am using a processor and a codec to grab frames (AccessFrame...)
while rendering the media i created a mouse listener .
on the first click i want to freeze the image and click 3 more times in order to get specific coordinates
and then to carry on with the media transmission.
so... what i did i stopped the processor clicked 3 more time and then started the player.
ok so its work. when i start the player i get a black screen for a second and the media is playing....
my question is. does anyone has a better way??? when i start the processor from the stopped stage i am getting
a black screen.
thanks
Nati

Open the video in QuickTime Player.
Scrub to the frame.
Edit/Copy.
Open Preview.
File/New From Clipboard.
File/Save...

Mac Apps freeze while opening

Hi,
My Mac Applications are freezing while opening. Mail, Safari, Calculator, Textedit, Preview, and Mac Help Viewer all freeze up either upon opening or as soon as I try to interact with them. Other apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, MSN Messenger, IE, and Word work just fine.
I have used Disk Warrior to reapair the HD and I have used Disk Utility to reapair permissions. I don't know what else to try.
Any suggestions?
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Try things in Dr.Smokes Apps. Fail to Launch thread.
Cheers!
