Export Progress Window gone (CS5 Mac)

Looks like in ID CS5 the export progress window is gone (the one showing which page is exported and which placed file is being processed).
Feature or bug?

Export Progress window seems to be stuck on Initializing...

I am trying to encode to h264 video with Type 2 DV .avi rendered in VT4.5 with Quicktime 7 pro.
I chose the movie to ipod setting in the export menu and hit ok 21 hours ago...
The Export progress bar is still at the Initializing... stage with no apparent progress.
The project is 19.5 GB when rendered to Type 2 DV.avi.
Is this normal? Does anyone know how long QuickTime 7 pro usually takes to encode? I am hesitant to cancel the process since I have so much time invested.
Thank you for your help.
Terry Christensen

Why not try a ten minute "cut" from your file and time that process. You'll get a good idea of how long your file will take to convert.
The QuickTime export dialogs seem to not properly update when a huge file is processing.
The "Movie to iPod" is the most complex export you'll probably make and changes found in the latest release now use a 640X480 display size which will drastically increase the time of encoding.
Since I don't own an iPod I've never used those export settings. And each computer will take longer or shorter time based on its hardware and processor.

Export from Windows Outlook into Mac Contacts

Sorry if this has been addressed earlier; I searched but couldn't find this specific matter.
Just purchased the Verizon iPhone for my wife. She had a prior AT&T iPhone, synched at office, where she works on Windows ... we are syncing the new one here at home on my iMac. I thought it would be a simple matter to export her contacts from the office Outlook (Windows) and import to the iMac's Contacts..BUT they don't appear to make use of any single standardized format. The Windows Outlook could export to PST (which is what it uses), or to Excel or Access. But Mac OS Contacts doesn't import from either of those.
I'd like to avoid, for obvious reasons, having to re-key all 800+ contacts into the system.
Is there an obvious solution that I've overlooked?
Thanks

Since all Microsoft does is copy other's work, Microsoft copied Apple's lead as usual and incorporated vCard support with Outlook. Outlook includes an option to forward all contacts in the Outlook address book as separate vCard attachments to an email. Your wife can forward the email with the vCard attachments to a personal email address that she accesses with the Mail.app on her Mac or she can send it to herself with the work email address if she also accesses her work email address wit the Mail.app on her Mac. Save the separate vCard attachments received with the email to a folder created on the Desktop. Use the Address Book import feature choosing vCard navigating to the folder where the vCard attachments saved from the received email.
I didn't see that in her Outlook (she does have, I think, a fairly old version of Outlook). ... I DID send as e-mail attachments some individual vCard attachments, about 20, and was easily able to import them into our home Mac's Address Book. Are you saying there should be (or IS) the ability to export all 800+ address cards as vCard? That's what I didn't see (and believe me, I looked).

Or if the contacts with her Verizon iPhone have been synced with Outlook, she can sync her Verizon iPhone contacts direct with the Address Book on her Mac via the iTunes sync process. If the Address Book on her Mac is used for contacts, she will be provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which she wants to select.
I did synch her new Verizon iPhone already with iTunes here at home on our Mac. Didn't see this particular list of contacts at the time. I'll take a look this evening again (she's at work as I write this). Her iPhone, I know, shows under Contacts all of the entries I have on my own (AT&T) iPhone, the same ones that are in the Address Book, AS WELL AS a separate Contacts list, which is the set of 800+ from her Outlook at work.
So, yes, it would seem as if there should be a way. "So close and yet so far."
Thanks, Allan, for the suggestions.

From cs5 windows to cs5 mac?

I purchased CS5 for windows a year ago and now i'd like to buy a mac computer, how do i proceed to reinstall cs5 on mac? Do i just need to download CS5 for mac and enter my actual (windows) serial number?

No, you need to upgrade to CS6 and make a platform swap. Serial numbers are language and platform specific, so your Windows serial is no use on a Mac.

Upgrade from CS3 extended (Windows) to CS5 MAC - Invalid Serial Number

I just purchased an upgrade by 'phone form Adobe (UK). I specifically asked about moving platforms and was told that this was not a problem.
However, when I tried to install the upgrade it installer would not accept the serial number from the CS3 box stating it was invalid.
What should I do now?

You need to work this out with support. Whoever you had on the line wasn't particularly well-informed it would seem. Platform swapping requires extra steps as laid out here. Once you fileld out the form, you receive a different serial and that will work then.

Export progress initialising

I have just upgraded to QT Pro for the purpose of exporting .avi video to my iPod. Whenever I start the export, it opens a a progress box and then appears to do nothing else. The progress bar remains blank and the text underneath says 'initialising'. I've left it running for several hours, and tried various file sizes, but nothing seems to work. Can someone please give me a clue what to do next, or advise on what the problem might be....

Import Premiere Pro CS3 Windows projects into Premiere Pro CS5 Mac.

Hi there people. I hope you can help me. I have had premiere pro CS3 on my windows system for some years but now run a Mac with Master Collection CS5, my problem is that my existing prproj files on windows format do not open in CS5 Premiere Pro for Mac, I get a message telling me that I need to see the user guide for importing options, I have tried to do so, but there is no information about how to do this.
Can anyone here please tell me how to get around this, as I need to rework some of these old windows projects however my old windows system is totally dead now so I cannot open the files in the CS3 windows version either.
Please help, oh and spare me the useless windows vs. mac arguments.
I hope someone here can help
Thanks

Since you are trying to Open a CS3 PC Project, you should not have THAT many issues in CS5 Mac. Have you tried both the Open and Import - similar but different operations? Have both methods failed?
One possible problem would be the Effects & Transitions used in the CS3 PC Project. Here is a LIST of the Transitions and Effects in CS4 for the PC, that are missing in the Mac version. I would assume that CS3 and CS5 would be similar. However, in similar cases, PrPro has thrown a more specific error message. I have only Opened Pr 6.5 Mac Projects into PrPro 2.0 PC, and these have been almost perfect. Where there were missing Transitions, I got a very explicit message, telling me what had been used that was missing from my program, and exactly where the problem existed (specific TimeCode). In my case, two Transitions just did not exist in my PrPro 2.0, and one was a 3rd party Transition, or Effect, and I did not have that. Still, the older Mac Projects Opened fine, and I just made note of where I would need to make changes. I would anticipate that similar would occur, if the Mac version did not have some Transition, or Effect, but do not know specifically. Still, based on the warning messages that I got, with such complete documentation, I'd expect similar.
Now another consideration - Assets. If there are Assets that you cannot work with on your Mac, say DV-AVI, or WMV, those would likely throw an error. Again, I would expect that error message to elaborate a bit more.
Do you know the details of your CS3 Projects and their Assets? Anything that you can think of there?
Just thinking here, and unfortunately, I have never gone the direction that you are going, and with the versions that you are working with, so something simple and glaring (to others) might just be slipping past me.
Good luck, and maybe others will have much better input on your issue. Also - welcome to the forum!

Upgrading Windows CS4 to Mac CS5 - What is needed?

I called Adobe Cust Supt, and I wanted to verify on here what I think I heard from the customer service. It was overseas and I could barely understand a word she was saying.
Our company is moving from Windows network to Mac. We purchased CS4 a few years ago, and it turns out it works quite well for the needs our office has. I would like to simply move the license over to a MAC CS4, but that would mean purchasing another CS4 Design Premium suite, costing too much for our small firm. If I understood Customer Service, I could simply purchase a Mac CS5 upgrade, and transfer license that way.
If I deactivate the CS4 license on the Windows machine, verify that it was indeed deactivated, then install the CS5 upgrade on the Mac, will it recognize the CS4 Windows and allow it to go through? Would I need to get on the phone with Customer Service and have them pull strings to get it going?
Is there anything else that I am missing?

I called again and spoke to a different agent. He informed me that license do indeed cross over, but not for CS4. Apparetly, only current versions cross over. In order for my license of CS4 cross over, I have to spend $649 to upgrade to CS5.5, then call back and have them walk me though the transfer procedure, as there are codes that I will need from them in order to install.
I also asked if I could purchase any Mac upgrade from the local store, or if I needed to purchase from the website. He said the local store purchase will be fine. He never mentioned anything about destroying my CS4 media either. Maybe they will spring that on me when I call next?

CS5 MAC OS - CS5 Windows

I currently own CS5 MAC OS and have never installed it on my computer knowing that I was going to upgrade my computer. I have decided on a new computer that has Windows 8. Can I exchange my CS5 MAC OS version for the CS5 Windows? and is CS5 compatible with Windows 8?
Thanks

No, you can only swap current versions. You would have to upgrade to CS6 or go Creative Cloud. In the latter case the platform switch would be a moot point, anyway. Otehrwise refer to this:
Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap

Fly out windows cs4 v. cs5 mac

Is it possible to change the flyout windows in cs5 to how they worked in cs4 in how you could click on the name, say "links" and the extended portion to the left would compress. In cs5 you must click all the way to the right "links" or the >> for panel compression.

I'll just use the auto-collapse icons preference then.
Thanks

Export progress bar shows, but no SWF appears

Hello all,
i've been through tech support and about 100 different sites with this issue but nothing seems to help. I'm using windows Vista 64 bit (work machine, not personal) with Adobe CS5 production premium. I have this training I created in flash and it used to export just fine. I was able to test and everything, but lately, it stopped doing that. I hit CTRL+enter, and it won't give me a SWF file. I hit debug it says it can't find the swf. I looked in the folder where everything is for the training, and sure enough, there is no SWF file there. I tried hitting CTRL + enter and watching the folder. The SWF file appears while the export progress bar is going, but the second the bar is done, the file vanishes. For a while, if I went into File and hit Export Movie, it worked, but even that's stopped working. Can anyone help me figure this out?
FYI - I put the file on my Mac and it works fine there. I can export, make changes, debug, anything I like. It's just on my windows work machine.

Hi,
Please zip up all of your files, change .zip extension to .zzz and email it to my attention at [email protected] Please also add the link to this thread. I'll take a look at it.
Thanks,

Bootcamp - Windows 8.1 - Mac Pro (Late 2013) -- ATI Driver Crash

Hi All,
I have a open case with Apple as well on this but i can not seem to locate any information on this issue on the web at all.
Case: 601052633
Basically, we received a new Late 2013 Mac Pro, and out of the box proceeded to install bootcamp and windows 8.1.
After the install and the bootcamp drivers are installed the screen starts to display lines and the ATi drivers eventually crash.
If we uninstall the ATI drivers the screen is returned to normal and windows uses the generic drivers, however the graphics performance is degraded.
If we install the latest ATI drivers (downloaded directly from the ATI webpage) the display issues reoccur.
If left to run its path the screen becomes unreadble and eventually the system bluescreens.
To recap all the things I have done:
Straight out of the box we started the boot camp install. We use the latest Windows 8.1 Media.
Once the process is completed the PC reboots as normal and we install windows on the “BOOTCAMP” partition.
Windows installs without issue and when the bootcamp drivers window pop’s up it starts its install. At the “Chipset” drivers install the window starts to flicker, this appears to be normal but afterwards the screen shows “lines” on it. (these lines can be seen on image below)
Once windows is booted the lines remain and progressively gets worse. Image below shows the ATI Criver crash and the blue screen. This takes 2-5 seconds. And depends on how much you move on the screen.
Screen capture (shown Below) shows the issues, even with screen capture the issue is recorded.
If we uninstall the ATI display drivers the issue disappears.
Process of tests:
Install Bootcamp windows 8.1 on Mac pro 2013 out of the box – Issue recorded
Remove Bootcamp and update firmware on Mac.
Install Bootcamp windows 8.1 on Mac Pro 2013 – Same issue.
Updated ATI Drivers using ATI drivers off ATI website – Same issue
Uninstalled ATI Drivers – 2 Generic Microsoft video cards detected – issue removed but video performance degraded.
Updated Bootcamp Drivers – ATI drivers reinstalled – Issue returned
Removed bootcamp, restored system to factory settings via web install.
Installed Bootcamp windows 8 on Mac Pro 2013 – Same issues
Removed bootcamp restored System to default
Tried installing windows 7 – not supported
Installed Windows 8.1 and ran screen captures and diagnostics.
We have also tried using different display ports, Different display adaptors, Different monitors.
Mac OS is not affected.
Note Mac is “out of the box”, Windows is a next next next install. No changes or software is installed.
Any support would be appreciated.
Cheers
Steffen.
It Manager.

I had this exact same issue and had been hunting it down since i first received my Mac Pro back in May 2014. I researched the problem all over the place but I have no idea why i did not find this post, or in fact why Apple techs did not find this post either.
Bottom line: In my case I have pretty much proved this was a problem with the AMD FirePro D300 video card/s. They basically can't cope with Windows graphics needs.
I have a new Mac with D500 cards, and now the problem is almost completely gone. I can recreate if i run certain situations and a screen saver. Upon refresh, there is a chance the card will crash, but showing a slightly different outcome.
Having read the prior posts, the D700 may also have the same issue??
Longer story and background: I am not exactly an expert, but i did try many different things and probably spent in excess of 200 hours onto tech support and installing, reinstalling, trying different monitors, trying different software. Eventually i was so frustrated and in tears with this issue.
The major problem over all this time was the constant response from Apple that this was not an Apple issue since the Mac OS was not showing any issues.
I was at the time a new Mac convert, my brother had purchased the 'awesome' machine for me as a birthday gift, with the goal that we could play a specific game together. My disappointment in Apples inability to recognize or even attempt to recognize that this was related to the hardware in the Mac itself was constant and ongoing.
My final visit to the Apple store to again visit the 'Genius' bar came up yet again with the most senior tech in the store telling me that there were no problems identified with the hardware and that this was not their issue. Totally frustrating. I was rather hoping, in the good tradition of true geeks, that this would have been a challenge to hunt down. I was pretty sure they trusted me that this was not a standard Windows issue, and thus was hoping they would switch out individual pieces of components (video cards being my first choice) to see if that the problem repeated. Nope, didn't want to do it.
My response was to threaten with legal action - not something i enjoyed doing, plus that i would NEVER buy an Apple product again. Since I was a new business client, this may have had an impact.
This wonderful Manager at the store agreed that he wanted to take the hardware out of the equation and see if I still had the issue. So he, amazingly, agreed to refund in full for the machine and I could order a new one.
As i was convinced this was hardware related, since I had the Quad core, D300's, 12 gig machine and my brother had the top of the range six processor, D500s, 16gig memory machine which did NOT have this issue, running identical software, when i reordered the Mac Pro, I bumped it up to the D500s (still Quad core) and 16gig of memory (also had the 1TB drive partitioned 40/60 in bootcamps favor).
I tentatively installed windows after a couple of days of normal Apple usage (software updates included).
I then hammered the system with the same software and installs.
Its been up and running for perhaps 2-3 weeks now, and I have not seen the issue at all, other then when i had screen saver running and 4 instances of the game running (Everquest for those of you who are interested - but the software is almost irrelevant, since i have had this issue using internet explorer or Chrome).
So.. I urge Apple to review this issue with the D300s and either remove them from the configuration options or resolve the issue. One of the powerful selling things for this wonderful machine is its ability to run Windows in native mode. I like it because I also want to get into App Development, so the dual option boot option is just what i wanted.
Responding to us poor Windows installers with 'not my problem' simply isn't good enough and should never have been something i had heard.
All good now, I am happy with the end result, but I would like Apple to recognize this IS AN ISSUE THEY NEED TO ADDRESS.
I apologize if my technical knowledge is not a strong as it might need to be in relaying this information to you guys, but hopefully it all makes sense.

InDesign CS5 (Mac OS 10.6) can not open its own file

I need guidance to open an artwork file that in one hour I have to send to the print shop. InDesign refuses to open its own file.
Any clue? Adobe, please help.

Re: InDesign CS5 (Mac OS 10.6) can not open its own file
Bob and Peter
Thank your for helping us out. It was really necessary to ask a coworker to open the file and export it in InDesign markup language.
Three hours later than expected, but it's done!
We are stuck here. I'm a Master Collection user of CS5, using only Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Bridge and Acrobat Pro. (I don't know why I bought the Master's). My coleague former Window user, got a Mac in May and downloaded the trial version of Design Studio Standard Collection of CS5.5. Before expiring, we purchased its license and filled it in the active trial version.
A couple of months ago we noticed that were missed Plug Ins on his version and contacted Adobe who instructed us to download the whole files again. We never did because it is a pain to get rid of the missing parts of a pre installed trial version etc.
I will ask Adobe to send a CD disk for his version.
Regards,
Junia

Exporting for Windows Media Player?

I work on a Mac and am switching from FCP. In FCP the option was to export as QT or h.264. I'm noticing in CS5.5 on a Mac that there is no .WMV option.
1. Is .WMV not used anymore?
2. What is the best format to export for Windows users?
Thanks.

Hi Jim,
post your exact export options (screen capture of the AME gui video,audio & multiplexer tabs will suffice) - I'll have a look for you.
MP4[h.264 + pcm] or MP4[h.264 + aac] etc should absolutely play on Windows 7 (and Vista?). Now if it's Windows XP then yes I don't think h.264 is supported as a video codec and it also doesn't understand the MP4 container.
!tip! if you bring up WMP->Help->About then click on the bottom "Technical Support Information" you'll get a page showing all the codecs WMP has to work with.
eg here is my virgin work computer (windows 7) that plays mp4[h.264] just fine...

EXPORT ERROR WINDOW

I am exporting various sequences of my project, all have been fine untill one sequnce I need to export, around 15 mins in length. Once exporting,progress reaches around 80% then pops up with this error window, any help on this? I have no idea whats going on:
volumes/buildDisc/builds/mulder64/shared/
adobe/mediacore/ASL/Foundation/Make/Mac/../../
SRC/mac/MacFile.cpp..1083]
Many Thanks for your time
Mike

You need to try exporting the first half of the book.
If that exports ok then export the other half of the book.
Whatever half it fails on - keep dividing the book in half to find the culprit page or pages.
For example if your book is 128 pages long:
1. Export pages 1 - 63
2. If these Fail to Export then
3. try exporting1-32
4. If these Fail to Export
5. then try exporting1-16
If it doesn't fail (step 2)
Then export pages 64-128
and 64-90 etc.
until you find the pages causing the issues.
