How to run CS6 more effectively

I made the jump from FCP7 to the Creative Suite for obvious reasons and I am in general happy with my transition except for the fact that while working with Premiere and After Effects together with RED 4K footage, my computer begins to slow down and heat up significantly. It is so bad that I don't feel I am wokring efficiently.
Here are the specs for my 2011 MacBookPro
OSX 10.8.3
processor  2.3 GHz i7
memory 8GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
I am more than willing to buy a new computer that can keep up with my editing demands (if that is the issue) but I want to make sure that I make the right purchase as I hear all kinds of different opinions on this matter:
"Buy a PC."
"Your graphics card is all that matters"
ETC....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    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.

  • Error message - can't run CS6 After Effects

    Installed on my macbook pro with OSX 10.9.5 is the CS6 student edition master collection and for the past year I've been able to use all programs I've tried to use, however, when I went to use After Effects yesterday for the first time, I was unable to. I received the following error message: "You can't use this version of the application 'Adobe After effects CS6 with this version of OSX. You have Adobe After Effects CS6 11.0." So, I went to adobe.com and tried to download the upgrades 11.0.1, 11.0.2, 11.0.3, and 11.0.4. After downloading 11.0.4 and clicking on the red folder, I received the following error message for 'After Effects Trial - 11.0.4-mul-AdobeUpdater: "Update Failed. Could not be applied. Contact customer service." Tried this multiple times, no luck. So then I read more on the adobe site and ended up registering for Creative Cloud to obtain the updates for CS6. Adobe recognized that my computer had CS6, provided me with a list of updates, I chose to update all (which took an hour), then, according to the creative cloud, all of my software has been updated. Then I restarted my computer. However, when I clicked in finder/applications on AfterEffectsCS6, I received the same error message. Creative Cloud still says all of my apps were updated. However, After Effects still won't work and looking at the application on my computer, it still says version 11.0 and the date is last year. Why does Creative Cloud show that my programs have been updated and yet my applications don't reflect that? What do I need to do to get CS6 After Effects working? I have a school project due and I've already spent way too much time trying to figure out this problem at the expense of my project. Please help!

    Chocchocm have you removed and reinstall Adobe After Effects CS6?  I would recommend using the uninstallers available in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder to remove your installed Adobe Creative software.  You can then reinstall Master Collection CS6 utilizing the retail installation files available at Download CS6 products.
    If you need to locate your registered serial number it is available under you account at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find additional details on how to locate the registered serial number at Find your serial number quickly.

  • How do I get more effects on Macbook Pro?

    I went to my friend's house yesterday for Christmas dinner and we went on her Mac and went on photobooth and started goofing around and taking silly pictures. Then my sister kept clicking the 'next arrow' and there were more effects that I've never seen on my Macbook Pro. Can I have the same effects as a Mac on my macbook pro? Like bug eyes, frog, lovestruck, etc? How do I do that? Thanks!
    EDIT:
    I just found out that the new effects are put onto Mac OS X 10.7. I have Mac OS X 10.6.8. How can I get effects from OS X 10.7 to my OS X 10.6.8? Thanks! If you found out for me I'd love you forever! lol

    Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, runing the latest version of Snow Leopard. The Lion upgrade can be installed on all your authorized personal Macs.

  • How is running Vista(after effects) on the new G5?

    I'm about to purchase the dual quad core 2.8ghz and I'm interested in adding Vista on it. Anyone who has this combination I like to hear their experiences. Does it run fast in general? Any potential problems?
    I also may be using some graphic application softwares including after effects or 3D related stuff.
    Any thoughts?

    If you want to run Windows Vista inside/alongside OS X together, then a VM is fine but can limit performance and use of 8-cores and memory.
    BootCamp Assistant helps install XP or Vista on the same drive as OS X to run natively.
    Putting Vista on Mac Pro can be done just formatting another internal drive. Once it is running, there are Apple drivers on your Leopard DVD to add hardware layer support.
    I prefer Fusion for virtualization then just went running Vista natively. Tricking XP to install and run on Macs does need help from Boot Camp. I started using Vista before BC existed, just install and go.

  • How can I do GR/IR clearing more effectively

    Hi
    I was required to do GR/IR clearing for 2 quarters in 2013. Those accounts are very old, and I found lots of GRs are still open because no IR posted against. I was instructed to confirm with every PO creater to see if all the payments have been made to this vendor. Way totime consuming and many people have moved and no longer in the position.
    Do everyone know how to do it more effectively? I have tried F.13, MR11, and because there's no IR against the GR, none of th ways really help me solve the problem. Thanks.

    Hello,
    make the steps as shown below, it works and will support you.
    br erwin
    1. TCd. FSS0 and  make setting at sort key.  See Screenshot for GR/IR account.
    2. Use TCd. F.13, for the first time in Testmode
    and make customizing for automatic clearing

  • How to run the PioneerCyclingJSP and MotorPriseJSP modules at a time

    Guys,
    I would like to run the PioneerCyclingJSP and MotorPriseJSP modules at a time.
    Could you please suggest me the steps to run both servers at same time on JBOSS 5.0 with ORACLE.
    How to run a more that one server instance...
    Thank you

    You should be able to include both modules when building your ear file. Then both the module's war files will be created in the ear file. Access both the applications with their respective /PioneerCycling or /motorprise ( look for context root in application.xml)
    If you want to run each application on different server, then
    1. create 1 individual instances of jboss server for pioneer and another for motorprise
    2. create additional dynamo server using command makeDynamoServer.bat motorprise 8861 8851
    3. deploy each one on respective server folders in jboss
    Use the appropriate ports to access ( say for ex:)
    localhost:8860/pioneer
    or
    localhost:8861/motorprise

  • Hi, I activated my CS6 in 2012 under my student licence and still using it. I've heard that you can't run CS6 on multiple computers. How do I transfer it from one computer to another as I am switching computers?

    Hi,
    first, I'm not Adobe's "slave" as you might to accuse me. Most of the posters here are users like me.
    I only can repeat that what I found in Adobe's help sites, as I wrote above. You are free to figure out the "real" truth and - the best would be - you may contact Adobe directly, here are - I'm sure you know them -  the links I would use: http://helpx.adobe.com/support.html  and http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html.

  • How to run 1 or more main classes in a jar?

    Hi there,
    I have 2 or more main classes in a java project. How do I create more than one application entry point in my MANIFEST.INF? I create my jar file from my java project using Eclipse, and it asked me to "Select the class of the application entry point". I was only able to select one main class.
    I noticed the MANIFEST.INF file that eclipse generated looks like:
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Main-Class: Automobile
    When I tried to run my other classes not specify in the MANIFEST.INF it failed and only look for the Automobile class:
    java -jar /tmp/Auto.jar TestMe

    Your app. can have as many entry points as you like, as atmguy demonstrated. But you can only specify one in the manifest,which - if you think about it - makes perfect sense. How is the machine to determine - from you clicking on the jar - which entry point you meant to invoke?

    If you go to Window > Arrange you can choose from several view options. Below I have selected Two-Up Horizontal since I have two images, but you can select other options if you have more than one image.

  • I bought my 20" iMac in Nov of 2007 and when I try to purchase the upgrade for lion I'm told I need 2GB of memory and I only have 1GB.  How can I get more?  I am currently running snow leopard

    Trying to upgrade to Lion on my 20" iMac that I bought in Nov. 2007.  Currently I'm running on MAC OS X version 10.6.8.  When I tried to buy the upgrade I got a response that Lion requires 2 GB of memory and I only have 1 GB.  How can I get more memory and will my computer be compatible with Lion when I do get more memory?

    Yes you can install more RAM. Up to 6 GBs. Two - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMMs. For the maximum use one 4 GB and one 2 GB. Otherwise install a pair of 2 GB modules for a total of 4 GBs.
    You can purchase suitable RAM at DataMem or OWC. OWC also has video tutorials on installation.
