How do I get after effects to render with my GPU?

Yea, really noob question, but I can't figure it out!
Spent literally HOURS trying to find how to do this.. Use my GTX 670 to render instad of CPU. Can't figure it out. I finally (I think) figured out where to change the setting to raytraced rendering, but it still REFUSES to use it. I can't work like this! Countless hours to render a 4 min video with an i7? I am checking with a hardware monitor, and my GPU isn't getting used.
I don't have the time (or inclination) to watch hours and hours of tutorial videos. I am the type of person that uses templates and modifies them to my needs/desires, so pointing me to a "generic" after effect tutorial website will do no good.
Now, I only mention this to show that I don't come running for help every time I have a small problem, and refuse to try and find the answer myself. I have myself learned how to edit text, make it appear and disappear. Slow down and speed up an entire composition and much much more all by using google. But I obviously can't get the wording right with google because I can't find a solution.

You cannot enforce GPU raytracing if your card is not supported and that is that. If adding the card to the raytracer_supported_cards.txt file and updating the graphics driver doesn't do it, then nothing will. You are using dead technology, anyway.

Premiere to After Effects Composition workflow with Subclips?

I have a bunch of footage, each about 1 minute-long, that I'm cutting in Premier into a collection of 3-second highlight shots. What I want to do is take some of those 3 second clips and add a couple of effects in AE.
Problem #1:
When I select the trimmed shot in Premiere and select "Replace with After Effects Composition", all I get is a blank composition that is 1 minute long (not 3 seconds like how I trimmed it in the Premiere sequence editor).
Problem #2:
What I did to resolve the issue above is select the trimmed clip, then created a Subclip of it. Then when I selected "Replace with After Effects Composition" it then created a blank composition in AE that was 3 seconds long.
Ok fine, but that still doesn't resolve the blank AE composition. It will be super tedious to import each of the 1-minute footage files into AE and then re-find the 3 second section I already set in Premiere. Am I missing a step somewhere? How do I get After Effects to import that subclip automatically into the library? I tried to export the subclip from Premiere but couldn't find that option.
Is there a better workflow for what I'm trying to do?
Thanks!

I'm using DSLR footage and am not running into this issue. However, another workaround you could do is, copy the trimmed/subcliped clip and paste it into AE. To get a sequence in AE to conform to the durration of the copied clip, use otp+command+v. I use this in replace of dynamic link, and works quite well. Hope that helps.

How can I use After Effects filters on a whole sequence without getting stuck in After Effects?

It appears that, with the options that are visible to the user, Dynamic Link only goes one-way and can't make round trips from Premiere Pro to After Effects and back again. If I send a sequence to After Effects, that part works fine and I can do what I want and save the comp. However, even though the comp appears as an asset in Premiere Pro, I am not allowed to do anything with it. If I try to drag it to a new sequence, it just says no. If I click "Create Sequence from Clip" it creates an empty sequence.
So how can I use After Effects on whole sequences/tracks instead of just on a clip-by-clip-by-clip-by-clip-by-clip basis? is this possible? For instance, if I have a whole sequence where I've neutralized the white balance, I might want to apply a warming filter to the whole thing as a unit. That would be really painful with even a few clips to keep doing that again and again, and if you want to modify it slightly you have to do it over and over. If there is a way to do that through Dynamic Link through some hidden option, what happens with the audio? Would I have to cut it out of the lower sequence and paste it into the higher sequence with the After Effects comp as a video track?

I'm not an Adoby guy, hence you may ignore my reply, but Adobe Dynamic Link is obviously not just one way ticket and in most cases works just fine.
You have already been explained by J-MS and tclark513 how to properly use it and which pitfalls may occur.
So as to apply an effect onto a whole sequence or a group of clips you need to either nest them in PrPro or pre-compose them in AE. Then just apply an effect (or several ones) onto that composition.
So, if you nest clips in PrPro, select your nested sequence in the timeline, right-click and choose 'Replace with After Effects Composition'. Done! Your dynamically linked AE composition is in the right place in your timeline and in your Project panel as well. If you can not treat it as an ordinary footage, there are obviously some mistakes in your workflow.
If you didn't nest your sequence or a group of clips in PrPro before replacing them with AE composition, you may easily do it within AE. Just select all the layers in AE composition and choose Layer -> Pre-compose... (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+C) Done! Switch back to your Master comp and apply your desired effect(s)
You may loose some effects or/and transitions while travelling from PrPro to AE via Adobe Dynamic Link, whereas you don't while travelling back
(If you start building your AE composition from scratch right in AE and then need to import it into PrPro, DO NOT export one as PrPro project out of AE, but rather choose Adobe Dynamic Link -> Import After Effects Composition... within PrPro)
P.S. And yes, submit a feature-request so that Adobe will convert 'Transparent Video' into fully functional 'Adjustment Layer'.

How to get after effects to be working properly

Im having some trouble getting after effects to work. Whenever i install after effects (Even as a trial), it sucessfully installs. But, whenever i open it, it alwyas says:
"please uninstall and reinstall the product.
Error: 5"
i already reinstalled it about 3 times already, but still no hope. I also have photoshop and dreamweaver, but they work perfectly fine.
Im on a mac running Mac OS X version 10.6.7. Model is apple imac mb950ll/a 21.5 inch desktop
plz help i have a school project and rlly need it

There is an application for Macs from Adobe that removes all traces of a previous install, which then allows a reinstall to go smoothly.
I don't know its name, I've never had to use it, I wouldn't know where to find it, I simply know it exists. I hope someone else with the actual knowledge chimes in.

How do i get this effect in the video 0:7 - 0:8 That the lines come together and build a logo? pls help me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfU8bZDKAMQ&list=HL1352499622&feature=mh_lolz

This looks like the final logo was created with several layers probably in Illustrator, then the file was most likely imported into After Effects and revealed by animating mask paths.

After Effects wont render full res - possible RAM issue?

Not sure if this has ever come up before - I'm unable to render out of after effects and RAM preview half res. When I try and RAM preview the comp just goes black and when I send it to render I get the following message:
After Effects warning: Logged one error - "error Rendering while writing to file. An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted(-1610153464)"
I'm able to RAM preview half res okay, and can render out half res as well. I've tried it with rendering multiple frames simultaneously on and off, clearing the disk cache and turning off any RAM hogging effects.
An obvious cause I've identified is that I've recently upgraded and replaced the RAM on my machine, however, after effects has been the only software effected. Cinema 4D renders no problems and I've had no other problems with the general running of my machine.
Have there ever been any cases before of After Effects not working with certain types of RAM?
My set up -
Mac Pro - Early 2008
OSX Mavericks 20.9.2
2 x 2.8 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
16GB 800MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
250GB Samsung SSD

I'm running After Effects CC 12.2.1.5
Sorry should have mentioned, no matter what format I render as, whether it be QT or TIFF sequence, I still get the exact same error.
QT version i'm using is 7.6.6
In terms of reproducing the error, it seems to happen to pretty much anything I try and render, unless it's an extremely simple one layer comp. Rendering a comp with 2 image sequence layers (1920 x 1080) will cause this to happen, but if there's just the one image sequence alone in the comp (and no other layers) then it will render.

After Effects Minimized Render Crash?

I am experiencing a very annoying issue pertaining to After Effects CS 5.5. I recently purchased the product (Production Premium CS5) and installed it on PC only to encounter a strange error. Whenever I do a preview render (pressing 0) and then minimize I then see the number of frames being rendered in the minimized window (this is normal). However, upon clicking the minimized window to reopen it After Effects crashes immediately with the error: After Effects error: "Crash in Progress.Lastlogged message was : <4924><ImporterMPEG><1>Error_printf:No Video Available". After effects gives me the option to save my work and notifies me to contact the Adobe Technical Support Center. I recently purchased this product I am disappointed that I cannot minimize the program while rendering, the program did not do this immediately, it started doing this a couple of days after I started using it.
I have already tried uninstalling after effects and reinstalling and i get the same error everytime.
My PC Specs:
8GB RAM
AMD 1100T Sixcore 3.3 Ghz processor
GTX 275 graphics card performance edition
Is there something I'm missing? Please Help me resolve this issue, After Effects is a good product.

It usually crashes with this log message:
"Crash in Progress.Lastlogged message was : <4924><ImporterMPEG><1>Error_printf:No Video Available"
I never changed anything with my system when this error occurred nor did I install a new driver, I didn't even install a new program or do any system changes.
I have OpenGL disabled but I get this crash with it on or off. I have even tried rendering a project where all I had was a square with keyframed position but I still get the same rendering crash/error when I minimize the window, therefore I don't think its an effect causing it or OpenGL.
Any Ideas?

How do I get more effects in my action box? I am only showing a few, like "Bottom Borders, Losing Weight, Resize and Crop, and Special Effects. And they do not list but a few effects. When I have watched the tutorials, they are showing a long list of effects in the action box. (with a side space bar) I do not. When I have clicked on the little arrow at top, and clicked "Load Actions", a box comes up, but it is blank,saying "no items match your search". I'm lost! If someone could help, it would be much appreciated! I would like to start using this.
Thank you.

Than you for time.

If your system does not meet the minimum system requirements you have to go back to a version that does. Try the direct download links you'll find here.. CS5 comes bundled with CS4 for AE which is the last version to run on a 32 bit system.

I NEED A SOLUTION ON HOW TO UNLOCK THE AFTER EFFECT File, "Action Trailer.aep"

We seriously don't have enough information to help you.
What do you mean by "unlock"?
My wild, shot-in-the-dark guess is that you've got some sort of template that, when you try to save, says that it's locked. If that's the case, try using "Save As" instead. If that's not your problem, refer to Todd's link and provide more info.
