CS5 not opening CS5 project!!

I am having this same problem in a FULL install of CS5. I am on a Mac, using all MOV footage encoded with CineForm NeoScene (and yes, I have the most recent versions of the codecs installed for everything). I have one sequence that is dynamic linked from After Effects, and it has given me no trouble so far. The project was started in CS5 about a week ago, and I have worked on it several times since. I have closed, opened, edited and exported it without trouble. Until today.
Now I am getting the dreaded "This project contained a sequece that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type" error. Never mind how unnerving it is that the error uses the past-tense, making it sound like all hope is lost.
I similarly get returned to the "Welcome" pane offering me new or recent projects to open (I should probably disable that), and the project I am trying to open never comes up. It won't open at all, so I can't check the sequence settings to see what's going on. As I mentioned, it all opened and worked fine two days ago, and as far as I know nothing has changed in my system since then.
This is a big problem, since I need to make edits to this project, and I am hoping not to have to start it again from the ground up.
Does my lack of ability to open the project at all indicate a bigger problem? Could it have something to do with Dynamic Link (it doesn't matter if I have that lnked file open in AE, I still can't open the Premiere project). I have restarted and tried opening it fresh, no luck.
Can anyone give me some quick guidance with this? Thank you!
Matt

Yep, turned out it was the dreaded Trial-reversion bug on an update. I uninstalled, cleaned, and reinstalled then updated from Bridge, and everything seems to be working well.
I did have some distinct playback problems at first, but I dug in and found that nVidia had updated drivers for their Mac cards and for the CUDA cores. Installing those cleared everything up and I am now running better than I was before! Thanks everyone.

  • CS5 not opening CS4 project

    This is the message that I get when I try to open a project created in PPro CS4 in CS5.
    "This project contained a sequence that could not be opened.  No sequence preview present file or codec could be associated wiht this sequence type."
    It shows all of the media loading at the bottom and confoming of files but then send me back to the welcome screen after I close the message.
    Any suggestions on why CS5 is not playing nice with my CS4 projects?

    Sounds logical but I completely turned off the firewall, restarted the computer, and still no luck.
    By the way, as a preemptive strike against the posts that will ask me about being an old computer or having a ton of weird codecs - the computer was just built, everything is very clean and CS4 runs like a charm.
    Any other suggestions?

  • AE CS5 not opening with 'installizing media core'

    I just updated my mac pro laptop to an 0SX 10.9 and installed my adobe suite cs5.
    Aftereffects gets stuck when opening with the text 'installziing media core'. I have no 3rd party apps on my computer as it's brand new. I have quicktime pro 7. Please help!

    Many thanks for your response. Miraculously CS5 is has just started working on my Mavericks, after a few failed attempts at downloading CSS.

    You should have checked the forums or at least system requirements before upgrading to Mavericks. After Effects CS5 is not compatible with Mavericks. You will have to revert or upgrade.

  • I have a 27 inch iMac with maverick os.  my current version of iMovie (10.0.6) will not open older projects i created in iMovie 9.0.9.  I can find the projects and they have a ".rcproject" file extension

    I have a 27 inch iMac with maverick os.  my current version of iMovie (10.0.6) will not open older projects i created in iMovie 9.0.9.  I can find the projects and they have a ".rcproject" file extension

    Thank you GeeD. I'm still stymied.
    I have moved the Event and Project Folders to the "top-layer of the drive" as the instructions state, right alongside the System Folder, Users Folder and Applications Folders.
    When I open iMovie 10.0.8, the Events and Projects Folders are empty:
    When I select File/Update Projects and Events, I get an alert box that says iMovie couldn't find any:
    Not knowing exactly what is meant by the "top layer" in the instructions, I moved the Events and Project folders back inside the "Movies" folder where I found them (but then not where I would call the "top" layer, but rather "iMac/Users/Home/Movies/iMovieProjects". Then I tried to "Update Projects and Events" and received the same alert: "iMovie could not find any projects or events to update."
    Then I tried to update iMovie 9.0 (iMovie '11 version 9.0 (1073)) to version 9.0.9 .
    [As an aside, the nomenclature of iMovie drives me nuts. The latest version is 10.0.8, which us newer than iMovie '11.]
    Back to the update of version 9.0 to 9.0.9.
    Presumably because I have version 10.0.8 installed, I got this alert box:
    So, I cannot update version 9.0
    and I cannot "Update" the Events and Projects created in version 9.0.

  • Macbook numbers 2.1(436) will not open the project from Numbers APP on iPad 2.1(1129) .  The error is "index.html is missing"

    I updated the numbers APP on my iPad to 2.1(1129) and my Macbook numbers 2.1(436) will not open the project.  The error is "index.html is missing".
    I think I am having compatibility issues also with my numbers files but the symptom started last week. I have a numbers project/file that has been shared between my iPad and Macbook for several months so I would believe there is no compatability issue with the content.  I updated the Numbers APP on my iPad to 2.1(1129) and my Macbook (numbers is current) on 2.1(436) will not open it. I used email the iTunes to transfer the project file. The error is "index.html is missing".
    I used ftp to get both a previous file that will open and the new one that will not open onto a server at work and unzipped them. The file format is very different. Indeed the old one has an index.html and the new one has an index directory with a set of files. I know that you can not believe everything you read online but I did see a blurb that Numbers 3 does not need the index.html file but has no other specifics on the files format.
    Am I a victim of the 2.1 verson on my iPad not being compatable with the 2.1 version on my Macbook?
    Am I now forced to buy a new iWorks or Numbers 3 becasue I updated the iPad APP?
    I wanted to find the answer before I purchased a new Numbers if that was not the problem.

    Thank you for the insight that the new iPad 2.1 version requires Numbers3 BUT that is not a conclusion I would have jumped to being both are 2.1? Go figure.
    You however I do not believe you are correct with the conclusion that I can get a Numbers upgrade. I am on OS X 10.6.8 so not only do I need a new OS, I need a new macbok to run it, according to the APP store it requires OS X 10.9 or greater.
    I would like to have known that Numbers 2.1 iOS is not compatable with numbers 2.1 OS X and not taken the APP update.

  • Why is iMovie not opening my project ever since I shared it to iTunes

    why is iMovie not opening my project ever since I shared it to iTunes

    I shared a project to iTunes and reopened it in iMovie without a problem. The yellow exclamation sign shows, but I am able to update the project - almost. I encountered a new situation.  I was able to insert new music, title slides and a video. However, it would not read the photo I inserted. I have not moved my project or consolidated it.

  • Aggregator exe project not opening another project

    aggregator exe project not opening another project when published.
    The same works fine in HTML.
    I tried in Captivate 7 and 8 as well.

    I'm having a similar issue. I've used a "home" button to return to the main menu of the course. However, all it does is return me to the last screen I was on. I've tried linking the button to a the aggregator htm and to the swf. Neither gives me the results I want. I currently have it set to open in the current window. However, I get the feeling that it's automatically invoking a bookmarking feature and I'm not getting the pop-up box asking me if I want to return to the last screen or not.

  • Why does after effects cs5 not open in yosemite?

    i haven't used after effects in a year...but in that time i have installed Yosemite
    is this the cause of the app to not open?

    davenokku wrote:
    it seems this information should not be that difficult to find out!
    It's not difficult to find; it's on the system requirements page.
    Now, I have heard of some folks getting CS5.5 (and maybe CS5) to run on Yosemite, but without further explanation from you on what sort of behavior you're experiencing, nobody could really help. For example, some folks launched AE with no difficulty, but with any effect that used an eyedropper to pick colors, it would crash. This was fixed by changing the preferences to use the system color picker. Some folks couldn't get it to run at all.
    If you can't get CS5 to run and you can't go back to an earlier OS, you could always upgrade. You can still purchase CS6 from Adobe.
    However, since you haven't used AE in over a year, perhaps it's more of a hobby? In which case, the upgrade pricing for the Creative Cloud might be a pretty attractive option. I like the Creative Cloud because you can get the latest version (and old versions all the way down to CS6) for a pretty low monthly fee. If you paid to upgrade every new version, the subscription model actually saves a bit of money. It's also less hassle and much easier to deal with than a huge lump-sum payment to upgrade. Plus you get all the cool cloud features too, like being able to save a project to your cloud folder and opening it on a different machine somewhere else.

  • 32 bit HDR from CS5 not opening in Aperture 3

    Hello All,
    I shoot in RAW and utilize Aperture 3 to do basic edits and archive my photos. When utilizing HDR, I first import to Aperture and then open the raw files in CS5 as PSD files. After running them through HDR Pro and getting either a PSD or TIFF file I then try to import the product back to Aperture 3 where it will not open properly. It is displayed as either a grey thumbnail or what looks like a noisy television screen. I have no clue what is causing this. When I run the PSD files through HDR Pro as 16 bit I have no problem importing it back to Aperture 3. Aperture is currently running in 64 bit mode on my computer. Hope there is something simple I'm overlooking. Thanks in advance!
    -Adam

    Jim, the point where the file becomes 32bit is not on export from LR, but once you're in the "Merge to HDR Pro" tool inside of PS.  Your LR prefs are fine.
    When all the images are open and merged, and you're looking at the HDR tool inside of PS, look for the dropdown menu called "Mode" on the upper right. Pull this down and set it to 32bit.  All of your tone-mapping tools will vanish, but this is simply because a 32bit file doesn't need to be re-mapped -- it contains all the data anyway.  You'll be able to perform all the edits you need back in LR, which will treat this 32bit file somewhat like a real RAW file.
    Here's the part where Victoria's advice kicks in.  You have to save the resulting file as a 32bit TIFF, or LR won't read it.  My computer automatically makes it a TIFF anyway, so it should be pretty easy from here.

  • CS5 not opening Raw

    I have just purchased a Nikon D600 and have CS5.1 and find that it will not open raw images. All suggestions to date have not helped. Is there a solution or anticipated download for these purchasers?

I'm not openeing another file type in photoshop in other words, it was started and saved as a photoshop document and now it won't open. Please help if you have any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

    Getting the wording just a little wrong means people who don't know about the setting won't likely be able to find it...
    Assuming you have a recent version of Windows, this will make it possible for you to see the actual file extensions:
    Click Start and type folder options into the search box.
    When Folder options comes up, click it.
    Click the View tab.
    UNcheck the entry for [ ] Hide extensions for known file types.
    After doing this, restart Photoshop and try your save again, making sure your file extension matches the file type you're saving (e.g., if you're saving a Photoshop (*.PSD;*.PDD) file, make it .psd).

  • IMovie will not open a project with a .rcproject extension

    The other night I was working on a project in iMovie.

I cannot seem to get iMovie to open the file. I would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks.
