How do I open After Effects???

I have installed after effects on Creative Cloud AND updated it, but how do I actually open it now?

The same way that you start any other applications on your OS.

How do i open after effects in adobe creative cloud?

Please help?

Log in to Creative Cloud
Pick After Effects and download
When the program is installed go to your program files or your applications folder and launch the program.
It's exactly like any other program. You don't run from the cloud, the cloud just keeps you updated and provides the download link for the apps.

Difficulty Opening After Effects

I have a trial of Creative Cloud, specifically for After Effects. I downloaded Creative Cloud and After Effects. When I attempt to open it, the link keeps bringing me to the website to download it. How do you open After Effects?

Long story short: This behavior is typical if your system does not meet the system requirements, meaning it was probably never properly installed in teh first place. Refer to the Tech Specs on the product page. Also read this:
Sign in or activation errors
For anything more we will need system info or other details. Just saying it doesn't work is simply pretty useless...

How to use Cinema4D lite with no opening After Effects CC ?

How to use Cinema4D lite with no opening After Effects CC ?
Is that possible ?
Open a 3D object Photoshop-type in After Effects CC (without C4D)
It is also possible?
thanks

It is as Mylenium says.
See this page for details such as this:
"You open the version of CINEMA 4D that is installed with After Effects using the New > MAXON CINEMA 4D File command or the Edit Original command in After Effects. You will not see this version of CINEMA 4D installed in the Start menu on Windows or in the Applications directory on Mac OS."

Error Opening After Effects CS3 - cannot load AERes1.dll

Hello,
When I try to open After effects I get this Error "cannot load AERes1.DLL"
I tried to reinstall after effects and it didnt dfix the problem.
I uninstalled the entire Master collection CS3 and reinstalled and the problem didnt solve.
I could open After Effects in the past.
Any suggestions?

OK so this is how I solved the problem if anyone encounter it ever again...
Uninstalling and reinstalling the CS3 won't help.
The problem happens probably because of quicktime installed prior to the CS3 updates. I didnt try to remove quicktime. I formatted my PC and luckly I had an image of my c: drive from the time I installed the cs3 and prior to the time I installed Quicktime. So I made all Adobe Cs3 updates first and only than installed Quicktime.
Now After Effects works.
If anyone finds a way to solve this without formatting c: drive, let me know.

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 can I install after effects on 32 bit operating system?

How can I install after effects on 32 bit operating system?
I cant even find it in creative cloud.
I want to make a intro but it dossent allow me to even find/ istall it.
I hope some one will help me by anwsering my question.
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.
