Encore freezes every time I import a timeline

Hello,
I'm no expert whatsoever in Encore. In fact, I'm just beginning to use it to create subtitles in some DVD files.
When I import my m4v file as an asset everything is okay. However, when I import the same file as a timeline Encore freezes indefinitely and I can't use the program anymore. I have to force quit. I have read some of the other threads about crashes when people try to import timelines but they all seem to come from Windows users. I run Snow Leopard in a Macbook with 2GB of RAM. And the video file I try to import as a timeline is 293 Mb. Is there anybody who could provide me a bit of help with this issue?
Thanks
Jo.

If the CD has different artists or "[artist (ft.another artist}]", and you DON'T ID it as a "Compilation", it will place the tracks in the individual artist folders based on the differences in Artist name.
However, if you ID it as a "compilation" it will be in your Compilations folder under the album name.

Are you getting any error when Muse crashes? what's the one function it lets you do before it freezes?

Encore freezes when building streams.

After using Encore/Premiere for a number of years I have come across my first major problem. System is Windows Vista, Premiere 4 and Encore 4.01.048. Have completed my project and imported file into Encore, added menus, music etc. The project is approx 2hrs in length. When I go to try and build a Blu-ray Disc or Image Encore freezes with approx 2mins left to run and showing "building streams". Not too sure how much information I need to give you guys to help solve the problem, please let me know. I have done the usual things, like making a new Encore project etc. Any help very much appreciated as I have been at this for the last two days.

Since you have CS4, have you already done this?
For CS4 you must update the Roxio component - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1108754
As well as the below, right click the program icon and select Run as Administrator, which is NOT the same thing as running the computer with the Administrator account, and which fixes several "odd" problems... To create a two layer DVD (or a BluRay?), you MUST have Encore set to use the Run as Administrator option

Create an ISO (Encore) or folder on your hard drive (Encore or Premiere Elements) and then use the FREE http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
Imgburn will read the ACTUAL disc brand from the disc, which is not always the same as the box label (Memorex is notorious for buying "anything" and putting it inside a Memorex box)
When you write to disc with Imgburn, use the SLOWEST possible speed setting, so your burner has the best chance to create "good, well formed" laser burn holes... since no DVD player is required to read a burned disc, having a "good" one from a high quality blank will help
Use Taiyo Yuden single layer or Verbatim Two layer Or Falcon Pro for inkjet printable Two layer

Fix problem of Encore Freeze

People do not break you head anymore, I seem to have solved the mistery of Encore freezing initailizing Transcoding like most people have with Encore CS4 and CS5. First thing you need is to update your firmaware of all of you DVD burner and Bluray burner.You can find the updates firmware at www.firmwarehq.com there you will find all brand names of your CD rom DVD burners and Bluray all you require is to have the proper model number and you are set.
Regards DAADood

You are so completely wrong in your advice
Not every CD or DVD or BluRay burner is the exact same brand and model
Being different brands and models, the software and process to do a firmware update is also different
Each person needs to go to the vendor site for their individual brand and model, and carefully read the vendor's instructions
A firmware update that is not done according to the vendor's instructions may result in a drive that is completely dead
Do not tell people the process is the same for all drives... the process is NOT the same for all drives

What makes you think the file is DVD compliant? How was it created?

Encore freezes when I change from DVD to blu ray

When I open Encore, or link from Premier pro CS4, and change from DVD to blu ray Encore freezes completely. Not even alt - ctrl - del works.
Everything works fine when making DVD's, the problem comes when trying to change to blu ray.
Has anyone seen this problem, - what can I do?

Welcome to the forum!
Please search the forum for "Roxio fix". Apply the pxengine patch and try again.

Adobe CC won't launch, Photoshop freezes immediately after launch, help!

Hello, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this issue. It started with Photoshop CC freezing, as in spinning color wheels of death immediately after launch. I have tried launching with a file, without a file, from Lightroom, independently, nothing works, but spinning wheel until I force quit.
So I tried to update, thinking it wpould help. Adobe CC won't launch at all, no error message, no force quit, just nothing happens. I tried uninstalling both, but unistall just hangs, bouncing in the dock for all eternity until I force quit. The Adobe Application Manager will not launch, and also hangs until a force quit.
The machine is a MacPro OSX 10.7.5 with 3.2 GHz Quad-Core 8GB with no other issues. I have done no updates, no new programs, apps, fonts or plugins in weeks, and the Adobe CC stuff has been working until two days ago. No other issues with the machine I have noticed, and Lightroom and PS CS6 are both working as usual. Restarts have no effect.
I have attempted to start PS CC using command-shift-option thinking the preferences might be causing an issue, but got the same hanging result. Renaming the OOBE file has not worked. Help!

Have you had any luck with this? I've been experiencing the same since Creative Cloud started... happens with all creative cloud apps. I removed the creative cloud desktop app as that was the most troublesome and would often hang everything after waking from sleep. Helped a little but waking from sleep still creates the issue and I have to restart the computer. If I do get an app working and I go to update through the help menu, that app hangs. I've read in other discussions that you need to change the user (which is ******** and very time consuming) but like an idiot I did that and... surprise, suprise, same problem. Never seen adobe come back on this one.

Mac keeps freezing at desktop launch

I have a problem with my Mac mini whereby I am able to startup and launch the desktop on most occasions but if I attempt to do anything such as open a folder the colour wheel just keeps freezing. I am running OS X 10.6.8 and I have started disk utility from install disk and done the repairs and repai permissions and restarted in safe mode and the same thing happens.
I have tried downloading diskwarrior on to a USB with partitions from threads I have seen elsewhere and tried to run that from startup without luck.
I am not sure if there is anything else I can try? A hardware test did not pick up errors.
The repair permissions repaired an invalid file count but that seems to have no impact on function
Thanks.

Google Chrome freezes after being launched (w/ Yosemite software)?

After installing OS Yosemite on my iMac, I've learned that my Google Chrome (which is my main internet browser of choice) has been freezing periodically. This hasn't happened prior to the Yosemite download. The freeze only happens upon launching chrome, and only lasts about 5 seconds, to which it will then unfreeze and proceed to function as normal. All other programs work fine and the mac runs fine (the iMac is slightly a year old, bought in September of 2014). I just tried uninstalling Chrome and then downloading it again, however the same issue remains.

Only extension I have is Google Docs, and I've had that there forever. I've been using Chrome for a very very long time and this freezing started happening just recently (after installing Yosemite). Doesn't happen every time I launch chrome, maybe every 2 out of 5 times. It will freeze for maybe 5 seconds then unfreeze on its own and continue to work just fine. Still, not a big issue but becoming rather annoying.

32-Audio Unit Bridge freezes on first launch

I am running Logic Pro 9.1.6 and MainStage 2.2 on 10.7.2 on a Mac mini server (with server functions off) with 8GB. Both Logic Pro and MainStage are running fine in 32-bit mode. In 64-bit mode, after the initial boot, whichever program I begin with fails to launch the first time. The freeze point is when 32-bit Audio Bridge attempts to launch. The system continues to run fine at this point, just Logic Pro or MainStage won't come up. If I force quit whichever program I initially started, either program will subsequently launch without issue. If I take them back to 32-bit mode, no problem. If I'm willing to do an initial aborted start at startup in 64-bit, no problem. Clearly the issue isn't life threatening! But it's not right. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
LC

If you are running Logic in 64-bit mode with a variety of plugins, you're going to have to realise that things probably won't be stable until updates get released.
The AU bridge is a workaround for the transition period, and one that many third-party developers haven't had much of an opportunity to test with their products, so you may well get funky behaviour in certain things.
If you're really stuck, go back to 32-bit mode for your edits, and it's worth contacting the developer of your plugins to see what they say about AU Bridge and 64-bit compatibility.

IPhoto (v.9.1.1) freezing soon after launch

What gives?
Something weird is going on with iPhoto today.
I sent myself some image files (.jpg - some logo pics for my iPod Touch).
Mail tried to save them to iPhoto - but iPhoto would just freeze.
I saved the files to a folder on my hard drive. Tried to copy the images to iPhoto.
As soon as I launch iPhoto, the spinning beach ball begins and the app freezes.
The only way out is to do a Force Quit. I just can't use iPhoto.
What's going on?
OS 10.6.7 on 2.8 Quad Core iMac, 16GB RAM, 2TB HDD - so there's enough hardware to handle this simple task.
Looks like iPhoto has an issue.
Anyone else having the same problem?

First, launch iPhoto with the Option held down and create a new library. If that is successful then your current library is damaged. In that case make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select options #1, #2 and #6.
Fix #3
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
