Encore CS5 fails/crashes/freezes...can anyone advise?

Hi,
I am having problems with Adobe Encore CS5, Master Collection. I am having this with both my hi-end PC and laptop of the following spec:
HP Z800 Workstation
Intel Xeon CPU X5650 @2.67 GHz (12 Core)
6.00GB RAM
Win 7 64-bit
HP Elitebook 8740w
Intel Core i7 CPU Q820 @1.73GHz
8.00GB RAM
Win 7 64-bit
Upon starting a new project, Encore fails pretty much every other time when you do one of the following actions:
when you import m2v files as assets
when you import a PSD file as a menu
when you click 'Save' (but it does save the project)
when you start to build a DVD
when it is approaching completion of building a DVD but still writing out the disc (upon trying the disc it does work)
when you start to build a DVD, Encore fails and you cannot eject the disc from the tray unless you hard re-boot the pc.
A very annoying and time consuming problem, that must be a software issue as I have just had my Z800 maintained and had CS5 suite re-installed. This project I am creating is not even an HD set-up, it's only 720x576. It is just me or does Encore CS5 appear to be very 'flakey' and unsupportive as it doesn't even have the library as part of the install.
Can anyone from Adobe please advise me? Or has anyone else had similar issues to the above?
Thanks

These problems are not normal, and I am not sure what you mean by it being a "software issue." Encore users do experience more problems with Encore than other apps in the Adobe suite, and often have to use workarounds, but you are experiencing a very high level of problems that reflect that someone more is wrong.
Some users need to run Encore "as administrator" (right click, "run as administrator").
Do all operations with no disk in the drive and build to a folder or image.
Any difference?
as it doesn't even have the library as part of the install.
That is not normal, although it happens.
For CS5 download:

For CS4 (also includes install by disks):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408826.html
I would first confirm that you do not have the "LIbrary" folder where Encore is installed. For me (win7, CS5) it is at c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adboe Encore CS5\Library.
If Library is there, is the content in it?
If every thing else in the Adobe suite seems okay, you can try a repair install. See the CS4 link above.
To check where Encore is pointed for library:
Edit -> Preferences -> Media and check Library Content Location:

    Hi, when powering up my macbook pro, when the apple symbol appears the screen flashes pink, can anyone advise whats up?

    You can try a system reinstall:
    Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the 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.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • When I login I get a message "aosnotifyd wants to use your confidential information stored in "my name" in your keychain." How do I know if it is safe to allow this? Can anyone advise please?

    Every time I login I get the message "aosnotifyd wants to use your confidential information stored in "my name" in your keychain." How do I know if it is safe to allow this? Can anyone advise please?

    My immediate reaction is to deny.
    Have you downloaded or installed any application that may relate to the abbreviation AOS? It may not necessarily be the application's name, could be the developer or distributor.
    As it's occuring at log-in, go to System Preferences > Accounts > your account > Login Items and look for a related item. If there's one there, right-click (or ctrl click) on it and select Reveal in Finder. That will show you where the originator of the item is on your system and should give you more of a clue as to what it is.
    I'd remove the item from login items anyway (highlight and click the minus sign at the bottom of the window). There shouldn't be anything trying to use your keychain info to notify anyone.

Thanks

    Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

    Solution below.
    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • I am new to Final Cut Express and don't understand why I am unable to drag transitions into Canvas? Something wrong in my setup? It's not the overlays they are "on" so can anyone advise me please?

    I am new to Final Cut Express and don't understand why I am unable to drag transitions into Canvas? Something wrong in my setup? It's not the overlays they are "on" so can anyone advise me please, by the way the "L" doesn't appear in the bottom left hand corner either? and by the way how can I get rid of that irritating Blue badge saying "AutoFill your contact details" all mine are in "address book" already!

    You can't drag a transition into the canvas. If you're dragginmg a transition from the effects tab you drag it between the edit point of two clips in the timeline.
    Make sure show edit overlays is turned on in the Canvas view popup.

  • Using migration assistant I transferred my complete MacBookPro to my nex iMac. Now I find out that all jampacks are missing in GarageBand. Can anyone advise? Thanks!

    Using migration assistant I transferred my complete MacBookPro to my nex iMac. Now I find out that all jampacks are missing in GarageBand. Can anyone advise? Thanks!

    I would think the migration assistant transfers 100% of all contents...
    When you are setting up a new Mac you can use Setup assistant the moment you boot the mac the first time. Setup Assistant will usually transfer everything. If you miss tha t moment and later launch Migration Assistant some library files will not be transferred. Migration assistant will not transfer system files, only User Files and Application files. I think, that is why your files are missing.
    so could you please tell how this copying is done?
    Best take an external drive with plenty of free disk space and plug it into your MacBook Pro.
    Open the System drive, your Macintosh HD in the Finder and open the folder "Library", then "Application Support", then "GarageBand". Copy the folder
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/  to your external drive by dragging it there.
    Then open again the folder "Library" on your Macintosh HD, and this time open the folder "Audio" inside. Copy the folder
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/
    to your externall drive. Eject the drive and plug it into your iMac.
    Now compare the AppleLoops folders and instrument library folders and copy all missing items over to the corresponding folders in the iMac's Library.
    Afterwards you need to reindex the loops, by dragging any loop you newly installed onto the Loop Browser in garageband, see: Rebuilding the Loop Index in GarageBand

  • I lost my belongings via theft. As a photographer my greatest loss is having a computer to download and edit photos. Money is scarce and I am considering an ipad. Can anyone advise me whether an ipad can replace a pc?  Are there ports?

    I lost my belongings via theft from a storage unit. As it was scheduled for move the next day I did not purchase insurance. Probably an inside job, painful leason learned. This also left me no way to repurchase all i lost.
    As a photographer my greatest loss is having a computer to download and edit photos. Money is scarce and I am considering an ipad, understanding even this may not be affordable. Can anyone advise me whether an ipad can replace a pc?  Are there ports?  How crucial is memory?  I could edit photos then store them on flash drives if the ipad cannot handle load. Never having owned one I'm afraid I am completely ignorant on these issues and am grateful for any guidance. Thank you!

    No.  The iPad while a powerful tablet, is not a PC replacement. It is limited in what it can do.
    Trishfromaz wrote:

    No USB ports or of any other kind if that is what you are asking.  There's the sync/charge port you can use with the Lightning to USB camera Adapter, but only to load photos onto the iPad. It cannot write out to USB drives.

    iPads are not upgradeable. So what you buy is what you get. Memory is 1GB.  Storage space can go from 16GB up to 128GB
    Depending on what Image editor applications you use, there may not be a version for iPad with the features you need.
