CS5.5 Premiere Pro & After Effects launch in one user profile but not the other

I’m having two issues. One with AE getting hung up on loading the MediaCore and the other with Premiere Loading the ExpoerterQuickTime.bundle I’ve looked and looked for solutions and haven’t found any with my problem.
I’m running a Mid-2010 MBP 8GB RAM with Lion and CS5.5 I’ve done a uninstall and reinstalled and still same problem. It works on other user profiles on my computer but not mine and that’s the one with all the content! Any help?
I launched AE with Alt+Command+Shift down which reset my preferences and whatnot but then it gave me a warning about the MediaCore and let me continue but now it's hung up on the the user interface. I don't know what to do. Any help from anybody would be greatly appreciated!!!
UPDATE
Loggin in as the Super Admin User worked for Premiere for whatever reason which is awesome! Thanks!
However After Effects is still looking for that MediaCore. And now Media Encoder isn't working. (Not that I really use it but if it doesn't work the issue might be somewhere else. Again. I tried all of these in the Super User account and the other normal account and they worked fine. Just not here in mine. Any ideas for that?
I don't have any firewalls up, It's all wide open. And I tried the second option there of removing all of the quicktime plugins in the Quicktime folder but it still gets hung up on the MediaCore.
I went into the super user and edited a AE project then came out and open the project instead of the dock icon and it went on and gave me the quicktime isn't installed bit and something might not work properly. But from playing around in it I've not seen anything different. This is an extrememly frustrating situation. I can get both programs open now but it's all janky and isn't working properly. I consider Premier to be a done deal, it's got no issues. I just need to figure out this mediacore business.
Original Post from the Premier Forum, thought I'd get better luck here in the AE one. Thank you for any help!

Yea, it's the main account i use. So I got all the permissions set up correctly. The rest of the CS suite open just fine it's just those two that give me hickups.

Washed Out Color on One User Account But Not The Other

Heyo,
I'm on my second Macbook Pro. Apple had to replace the first one. But that's behind us.
Anyway, I have a bit of a predicament. I've noticed that the colors on my main user account are washed out and dull. I created a new user account to see if the problem was a hardware or software issue.
The thing is, the account with washed out colors has Adobe Photoshop, and the rest of the Design Premium CS3 suite - as well as Final Cut Studio 2 - but these are not on the other.
So, I'm guessing that this issue is connected with CS3 and FCS 2.
This issue appears regardless of what color profile I use. But I normally use the Adobe RGB profile - which is what I used to test the other account.
Any ideas what I could do to get my color back? Is there a setting I can change for this?
Thanks for any help,
Michael

I'd try to isolate a corrupted user preference file.
Apparently, Diskwarrior now claims to fix those. Or you can just look through the preferences folder in your user folder and start pulling some of those out to the disktop, log out and then log back in and see if that does anything.
When something is affecting one account but no others, I think the clear majority of the time it is a user preference file that is responsible.

We have two users on 1 computer tools, history, etc show up on one user screen but not the other how do i fix this

We have one computer in our home and two user accounts, his and hers. On my account at the top of the page I have file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools and help.
On the other account it will not show any of those topics. Its very discouraging first its there and than it dissappears so that we cannot find our bookmarks.
How do i remedy this so the same is on both user accounts.

IPhoto '11 works on one user account but not the other

I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '08 a couple of weeks ago using the MacApp store. After doing so, I opened the application on my main user account, received a message that the library had to be updated, the application did so, and it has been working wonderfully since. The problem I'm having is with my wife's user account. I did not open the application and upgrade the library immediately on this account. Before I could do so, my wife hooked up her iPhone to sync, which automatically opened iPhoto. I get the gray screen with the large spinning wheel in the center, and her library never appears. I have tried two strategies to fix this, and so far, have had no luck. The first was to hold option while launching the application, and selecting her library. I get the exact same result doing this. My next strategy was to completely delete iPhoto from my system, then re-download and reinstall it, and try to open the library once again. Unfortunately, this did not work. I thought the next step should be to delete iPhoto '11, reinstall iPhoto '08, open my wife's library using iPhoto '08, then reinstall '11 and upgrade her library. Since iLife came preinstalled on my mac when I purchased it years ago, I'm not certain how to reinstall iPhoto '08. Does anyone know how to do this, or have another suggestion for solving this problem? Thank you in advance for your help!

In your wife's account:
Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
*What's the plist file?*
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

I can sign into iTunes with one user id, but not the other

I am trying to update all apps. I tried to sign in under my main id, and it says it cannot connect. No error code. I tried under my other id and it worked great. What would cause my main id to not work? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I hope it's something easy that my brain just doesn't want to see.

HT2731 I have 2 apple iPods on the same account, And they have the Same songs on them. How can I get a new account for one of them but not the other? Can I wipe the memory of 1? How would I do that?

I have 2 iPods one I don't use anymore. I would like to make a new account for one but not the other. Is that possible? If I wipe the memory in one will the other wipe out too? How can I do all of this?

You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices.

Audio audible in one Encore timline, but not the other?

Hello,
I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue in an Encore timeline for Blu-ray with an MPEG-2 and AC3 file. It's odd because with the exact same file specs for both video and audio, I'm able to hear the audio from test project timeline (shorter in duration), but not the full length project timeline (roughly an hour and half in duration).
I'm in the process of burning a disk to verfiy that the audio is simply not there, rather than a playback issue with the longer project, but can anyone suggest what might be failing here? Again, the two projects appear to be identical in settings and file specs for video and audio, only the duration of one (working) is shorter than the other (not working).
The audio file has been validated outside of Encore as playing back audio.
Thanks for anything thoughts anyone might have here. Btw, the project has no menu screens. It is for a "play only" Blu-ray disk.
Mtbakerstu

Stan, thanks for the questions / feedback.
As it turns out the file specs were not identical ! No fault of Adobe- an ingest / encode application from another company mysteriously swapped out channels 1/2 of audio to 5/6, and were not readable in Encore. This information was not readiliy accessible within Encore, but was discovered in bringing the audio into Final Cut Pro (where it could be heard).
Thanks again for your thoughts, as always.

Premiere Pro CS6 stopped working, for one user profile

So Premiere Pro CS6 wouldn't open today. Opened fine yesterday, and the days before that. The program didn't crash yesterday or close improperly. I just get the logo splash screen, but I don't see the usual text stream of applications starting up on it. After a long time I get a Windows message saying it can't open the program.
- I used Bridge to update to the latest version. No help.
- I made sure Quicktime was updated.
- I cleared the preferences by moving the whole My Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\6.0 folder somewhere else (as a backup). Next time I tried starting the program it created a new \6.0 folder but that's as far as it went.
- I deleted AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro. Starting the program recreated the folder, made a Trace Database file but only put two entries in it:
DynamicLink 1 5
FE.WinInit.LocPlugins 1 5
And then it stops there. No other files created.
- Tried starting the program holding the Shift Key, and again with the Alt key, and again with both. No change.
- Rebooted after every change.
I tried logging out as the video user account and logging in with my personal account, and then Premier Pro opened just fine.
Problem is, I need it to work on the video user account because it was created specifically for our video editing PC. Our company logins also tie into our email and other programs. This one was created specifically so more than one person could share Premiere Pro settings and resources, and there was a battle with our IT to get it because they despise generic accounts.
I've seen other threads here mentioning startup problems but the solutions listed there don't work for me. Manually trashing the \6.0 folder didn't help. I don't have a .pref file or Preferences folder other than the \6.0 one. I haven't made any changes to the PC. The video drivers must be OK or it wouldn't start under the other user account. How do I fix this one?

This was Microsoft patch week... did you install Windows updates?
•What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
•What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
•Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
•For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information

One charger works but not the other

Just had something weird happen to my Macbook (13' 2.4GHz Model). I tried plugging in my adapter (L shaped one) and it was not charging. LED light was not lit up on the charger and connection felt loose. So i thought this meant I have a damaged port.
Just to be sure, I took out the T shaped adapter that I had kept from the previous macbook and lo and behold it is charging my macbook. The connect is loos-ish but not as bad as before. So that made me think the L shaped adapter was damaged. But then when i tested that it out on my old macbook which began charging as if nothing was wrong. The connection was a lot stronger.
Now my question is, should I get my magsafe port on my newer machine checked out or should I continue to use the T shaped adapter? And if I should replace the port would I be able to replace the existing port with the port in the older machine (machine has damaged logic board so it's really just for parts)

Actually, there are other threads about another issue that sounds similar. If you remove your battery and replace it, the charger will begin working. If for some reason this does not work, you can reset your SMC.
Until this is fixed, my new method for plugging in my 2008 Macbook Pro is to plug it in before opening the cover, and if it doesn't work, then remove and replace the battery before opening. That way, if it is sleeping (LED pulsating) when the battery is replaced it will restore sleep from the saved image. If you were to remove the battery too soon after closing the lid, it would be in the process of saving the sleep data, and a full restart would be needed.

2nd gen ipod shuffle will charge with one computer (vista) but not the other computer (windows 8). Please help!

My 2nd gen ipod shuffle will charge on my old vitsta computer but not my new windows 8 computer. Does anyone know why that might be? The new computer recognizes the ipod and I can see everything on it, change settings, etc. it just won't charge. Is there a reason as to why this should be happening?

Just bought a refurbished 2nd generation ipod
shuffle. I am running the very latest version of OS X
and iTunes on an iBook G3 600 mhz with the slower USB
ports, not 2.0 ports. The ipod mounts and is
regognized by itunes, but I cannot seem to register
the ipod from itunes, it always has an error message
when I submit to register (all forms are filled out
correctly). The registration window in iTunes shows
that this ipod is formatted for Windows (from the
previous owner I assume) and may be causing my
problems?
No. ALL shuffles are FAT32 format.
The other problem is that it will not sync and
transfer any music from itunes library. I am trying
to transfer simple mp3 files that should be compliant
with the ipod specs. No luck even after multiple
restarts on the ipod. Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you.

ITunes recognizes one Airport Express but not the other

I have two Airport Express and have updated both with V6.3. Now when I try to connect iTunes to the stereos to which they are connected, one works fine, the other says "The remote speaker is not compatible with this version of iTunes. I'm running iTunes 6.05.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Answered myself. Both Airport Express were sharing the same IP address. Changed one over and now everything works fine.

Can Vid Chat with one computer login, but not the other--HELP!!!

When I login to my computer using my account, I am unable to video chat. However, when I login using my daughter's login, I can video chat. What gives? As far as I can see the settings are all the same. I can get as far as sending an invitation to video chat with somebody, but then it just churns while waiting for the other person to accept the invitation. In other words, they accept, but the last connection step doesn't happen. It happens when I'm logged in under my daughter's computer login, but not mine. Also, when I get an invitation to video chat, the same thing happens. I accept and then it just sits and churns waiting for that last step. I have a .Mac account and she has an AIM account, but it doesn't help when I switch to my AIM account. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Panasonic TV. Apple TV works with one HDMI input but not the other.

I have the latest version of Apple Tv and an older Panasonic TX32LXD60 Tv. The TV has two HDMI inputs. Apple TV works perfectly on HDMI1, but shows nothing on HDMI2. I am using exactly the same cable. HDMI2 works fine with my DVD player. Can anyone explain how I can get HDMI2 to accept Apple TV?

Update - Panasonic support wrote the following:
"Thank you for your e-mail enquiry regarding your Panasonic product.
I have discussed your issue with our head office AV technica ldept & they have confirmed that as the DVD player works on the HDMI input there is nothig wrong with the TV. It may be there is an incompatability with the apple TV interface & the TV. Nothing can be done to solve this as there would be not adjustments you could make to the HDMI inputs on the TV."
so according to them its not their product!
I have solved my problem by getting a Samsung TV - brilliant picture and no technical problems (so far!!)

New Machine purchase advice to run Premiere Pro & After Effect 5.5

I am about to purchase a new pc with the following specs: Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit), Intel® Core™i7-930 processor(8MB L2 Cache, 2.80GHz), 12GB Tri Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz - 6 DIMMs, ATI Radeon HD5970 2GB GDDR5 video card. Are these good features? I cannot find any compatability or certification for any ATI video cards on the Adobe site. Is the video card, ram and cpu good to get the acceleration featured of CS5.5 (specifically Premiere Pro & After Effect)?

To answer your question:
That build could be better equipped.
First off, Windows 7 Home Premium maxes out at 16GB of RAM. This means that if you want to put in 24GB total anytime in the near future, Windows 7 Home Premium will make only the first 16GB available for programs. You will need Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate in order to use more than 16GB of RAM.
Second, Premiere Pro CS5.5 needs more than 12GB to run at its best. However, since that build fills up all six DIMM slots to attain 12GB, you would have to discard some of the DIMMs in order to add more RAM at all. As a result, if you must have only 12GB, I'd recommend three 4GB DIMMs instead of six 2GB DIMMs. These days, 4GB DIMMs sell for about $40 to $50 USD each ($120 to $150 for 12GB, or $240 to $300 for 24GB) whereas a year ago they sold for $200 to $300 USD apiece ($600 to $900 for 12GB; or well over $1,000 for 24GB).
Third, Adobe does not currently support the use of any ATi or AMD GPU in its MPE GPU acceleration feature. This means that any ATi or AMD GPU, including the top-of-the-line models, will force MPE to run in software-only mode. And software-only mode is often 10 times or more slower than MPE GPU mode. At present the MPE GPU mode supports only Nvidia GPU-equipped cards with 896MB or more RAM and CUDA support.
Fourth, that HD 5970 is a dual-GPU card. Unfortunately, Adobe does not support the use of more than one GPU at all, which means that the HD 5970 goes half-unused in any flavor of CS5.x - and then, it goes to software-only mode, to boot since it's not an Nvidia GPU. As a result, the HD 5970 performs no better than an HD 5850 in CS5.x, especially since the HD 5970 actually consists of two HD 5850's on a single card. In other words, dual-GPU cards are a total waste of money, as far as Premiere Pro and After Effects are concerned.
Finally, if that system has only one hard drive, I'd strongly recommend adding two or more additional hard drives. This is because Adobe requires a minimum of two hard drives (one for the OS and programs, the second for everything else) just to run without severe slowdowns in performance. The more (hard drives), the better.
