I can't Import any .mpg files? (Trial Version)

Whenever I try to import any .mpg files, after effects says the file [Name of file] is either damaged or unsupported. No matter what I do I can't seem to import any types of videos. The files are not copied or editted yet and play on any type of media player so they are not corrupted.
-Any help would be greatly appreciated

It would really hugely make everyone's lives easier if people read first... --> http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/trial/faq/

Can't import any .psd files into after effects.

Hello all.
I was using CS5 master collection without issue, for a year.
Decided to upgrade to the CS6 master collection and that’s when the problems began.
For example, I can’t import any .psd files into AE.
All files are saved in RGB mode.
The previous files were made on CS5.
I made a new .psd file in CS6 with just a couple of layers on it, couldn’t import that either.
I’ve tried Ctrl-alt-shift to delete preferences, that had limited success. I can import a file and do a little bit of work on it but as soon as I close the file down and opened it up again, it does not recognise the .psd file.
The errors I’m getting in AE are many
For example:
After Effects warning: Reading past end of file
After Effects error: Could not open intro.psd because it is not a valid Photoshop document
After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message:<8104><dynamiclink><5>C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Adobe Premiere Pro exe
After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialise PSL
I have un-installed and re-installed many times.
I’m using Windows 8, with 32ram. Hard drives C: 100mg, D: 2 Tb
I’ve tried installing on both drives, still the same thing happens.
Does anyone out there in Adobe Land have any ideas?
Totally confused
Cheers,
Gary.

Hi Arie,
Thanks for your response.
It actually happens with every .psd file regardless of size or specs.
All the other programs in the CS6 master collection work fine, except for AE and PS.
I tried the small file. Created a small file, 100 px by 100px 72dpi, just with a gradient background. Same thing, not enough memory to initialise PSL.
I got the adobe cleaner, and re-installed on my system (again) .... same thing.
As long as I open AE with doing ctrl-alt-shift every single time or export layers from PS individually I seem to be OK.
The problem is far from solved, so I guess i just have to put up with workarounds.
Thanks for taking the time to respond

I can't import any movies/files from my desktop to make an iMovie

I can't import any movies/files from my desktop to make an iMovie. It worked a few days ago and now I can't do anything. Also, is there a way to get rid of all the movie files that I don't need anymore? Thanks!

Can't import any audio file types into my project files in AECS5

I'm trying to add sound effects to a titles animation for the first time. When I tried to import a .wav file i got this error:
after effects error. Can't import file (filename.wav) unsupported filetype or extension
So I converted the file to .mp3. Still didn't work. I converted the file to .aiff, wma and none worked.
Whats the problem? Better to just animate in AE and input sound effects in Premiere?
please help!

However, you did NOT answer Todd's very crucial question:
Are you running AE 10 without having done the free update to AE 10.0.1, which corrects a wealth of AE weirdness? Hmmmmmm?
That's the first thing to tend to if you haven't done it yet.
You have other issues going on as well.
Issue #1 is that you only have 4GB RAM, and for AE 10, that's absolutely NOTHING. You need to get more memory, you need to get it right away, and you have to turn off multiprocessing and leave it off until you get more memory. Think about bringing your machine up to 12 GB minimum to use multiprocessing. You should tend to that next.
Issue #2 -- you have your media files on the same drive as your OS and applications. This is very bad indeed. You need to get an additional hard drive for your project files and media files. A 1 TB internal hard drive costs what.... about $100 US? That's the third thing to do.
Once you do all that, you ought to stand a fighting chance at getting your audio work done in AE. And you should use either AIFF or WAV files. Do NOT use any kind of compressed audio. AE has NEVER worked well with compressed audio.
Can't afford to do all that hardware upgrading? Got a video editing application? Import your AE animation -- VIDEO ONLY, no audio -- and any audio files you need, including sound effects. Do the work in the video editor. Not only will it be faster, but easier.

I can't import any movie files in FCPX (even files that previously imported)

I am currently in this interesting position of not being able to import any videos into FCPX. Not just one, or a few odd ones, but none whatsoever.
I have previously imported some videos into FCPX, so it seems like the software is... deteriorating.
I created a quick video showing my attempt to import a video (ProRes4444) created in Motion5.
http://youtu.be/LLD_4YVeipQ
I had imported the exact same video into FCPX previously (another Event, another time).
It doesn't matter if I use the import dialog (or what settings I choose on that dialog) - I get the same result.
As you can imagine, as a result of this, I can't do anything on FCPX at the moment...
If only FCPX came on CD, I could at least use it as a coffee coaster - even that would be far more use than I'm currently getting out of it ;-)
I guess I can try a reinstall, but I wanted to plea for help & share with others who might get this & wonder if they're the only ones.

Yes, that's it. thank you.
I changed Import settings to "Create Proxy Media" at some stage & the setting in Playback "Use Proxy Media" must stay set to this. Basically, if you get Playback & Import settings out of sync, you'll get this calamity.
It would be nice to get a message about it - it's quite a "gotcha".
My evil side can now sabotage anyone's FCPX installation just by going to their house & setting Playback to "Use Proxy Media" - should have them scratching their head for hours ;-)
I imagine that you must have been burnt a little by this - and that's why you know the answer so quick ;-)

Just upgraded to Lion and can no longer import any .mov files ("file not supported") to 3.1.3. Also can no longer view any .mov or .mp4 files already in library.

Have been using Aperture 3.1.3 with no problems. Importing from a Nikon D80 (RAW & JPEG), Casio (.MOV) and Flip (.mp4). Could import and view all videos without issue prior to Lion upgrade. After Lion installation, can no longer import .mov files (get "file not supported" error) or even view any .mov or .mp4 files currently in library (even though thumbnail is present). Can watch the .mov files directly on my camera using Quicktime in Finder but can't even drag & drop that file into Aperture. Anybody else having similar problems?

Still no resolution and Geniuses at store could not assist. Unfortunately, it looks like not all the applications were ready to support the Lion operating system. We could not import any .mov files, could no longer view any .mov files already in my Aperture library and could not email any .mov files. Totally frustrated. Use Aperture almost daily and can't lose the video functionality. Was also running dog-slow. Constantly looking at the spinning wheel. Geniuses suggested that I wipe out hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard. Had full backup on external drive with Time Machine.
Not an easy process though...had to reinstall several times (at 5 hours each time) because I continued to have issues. Finally figured out that I needed to delete every backup file from Time Machine on external drive from the date I installed Lion because some of the hidden files were still migrating back to Snow Leopard.
I had to:
1. Delete all time machine backup files from date/time of Lion installation forward
2. Do "clean" installation of Snow Leopard (wiped hard drive using disk utility and booted with Snow Leopard disc)
3. Chose option to reinstall from backup off Time Machine which eventually got me back to Snow Leopard desktop
4. Deleted Aperture program and reinstalled (I had to install Aperture 2 and then install Aperture 3 upgrade.
5. Reinstalled iLife apps
5. Applied all Apple updates available (again this took a few hours because there were several updates from Snow Leopard's original release plus Aperture 3 and other application updates)
Still doing some tweaking on some of my other apps but got everything back to where I originally was. Now plan to wait on a few version updates from Lion before reinstalling.
I am one of Apple's biggest fans, but was very disappointed in the fact that I lost functionality in one of their own pieces of software (which I use the most!) by installing Lion.

I can't import any files or folders into Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 projects

I can't import any files or folders into Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 projects. When I select import and then either files or folders, I am able to navigate to the drive where the media is being stored, but then when I scroll to locate the files or folders the drive disappears. This problem began as an intermittent problem, but now I cannot import any files or folders. This problem started when I upgraded my operating system to Yosemite version 10.10.2 on my mid-2010 Mac Pro running with 16 GB of memory and an ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB graphics card. Can anyone help me figure out and solve this serious problem? Thanks!

Then just drag the files/folders from your hard drive into FCP. Don't use the IMPORT option...just drag and drop.
The problem started when you installed an OS that doesn't support FCP 7. So if you want things to work smoothly, it's best to go back to an OS that did support FCP 7. Yosemite was written without taking FCP 7 functionality in mind, so it isn't fully functional. It might not do one thing for someone...but works for you in that respect. But then you can't do something else. The ways it doesn't work is always random. Or it might work great for some people, because they don't use functions that might no longer work....so they don't notice it.

I can't import my iTunes files into pages, how can i fix the privileges problem?

when i try to import any mp3 file into a pages document, i get an access privileges error saying it is either corrupt, damaged or "can't be used" because I don't have access privileges. This has happened since I moved my iTunes library to an external drive. Anyone have any solutions? The privileges on both the library folder, and all its files are set to read and write for sharing and permissions.

If you do not have done so, set the "Ignore Ownership" flag on the external drive. YOu can set this flag from the "File > Get Info" panel for the drive.
How is your external drive formatted?
Can other applications open these mp3 files? QuickTime? Do they play in the Finder preview?
Do the filenames contain special charcters?

Can no longer play .mpg files

I just noticed this. iTunes will not play any .mpg files on my Intel Mini runing SnowLeopard. I don't know if this is confined to video files or not. I have iTunes 9. whatever, it's the latest. The same files play fine in Leopard on my G5 Tower in the same version of iTunes. When I try to watch them in FrontRow (which we all know about by now) it get the error message "Not a recognized file format." Once again I can watch these on the G5 in FrontRow with no trouble. Anybody have any ideas?
I'm really thinking of getting a bunch of used PPC Macs for my home entertainment network, ok i can't blame the poor Intel based models can I, it's just the Snow Leopard droppings all over my house.
Thanks
J.

I should add that these are mpgs of a television series. They were made with QuickTime Pro 7.6.2 or .3 just before the new iTunes and Snow Leopard came out. I can open them with either QT X or QTPro7 on the Mini and they play fine. I don't know where to point the finger since they play through iTunes fine on the PPC Leopard Mac and not the Intel Snow Leopard Mac. It could be how the new tunes works with the OS but those kind of hooks are harder to find than they were back in the old OS7,8,9 days. I'm not meaning to be an old bloke longing for the old days cause i love the magic of technology.

Can't find any raw files to convert when I am using Adobe DNG converter

Recently I purchased a new Olympus XZ-1 camera. I shoot exclusively RAW pictures (raw files for this camera are called .orf). Then when I tried to import these .orf files in the organizer of Phtoshop Element 8 it was imposible, nor then I could see those pictures in the organizer. By surfing on diffrent forums, I was able to figure out that Camera Raw included in Element 8, Camera Raw 5.5, is not supporting the .orf raw from Olympus and if I didn’t want to upgrade my Element 8 to Element 9 or 10, a simple alternative was to download Adobe DNG converter to convert all my .orf files into dng files, which could then imported by Element 8 and opened in Camera raw 5.5.
I downloaded DNG converter version 6.6 and installed it in on my computer running on Windows 7. The problem is that once inside DNG converter, when selecting the folder where all my .orf files are (Select folder), I can't see any raw files to convert there! I tried to select a folder with NEF files instead (raw files from Nikon) and it is the same problem! Why can’t I see those files of mine I want to convert when I select the folder in DNG converter?
I'm dying for help!
Thanks a lot!

When you are selecting the folder in the DNG converter, you only click on the folder. You DON'T double click on the folder. After you have set your options, and chosen the folder, you click on the Convert button. It is only after you have clicked on Convert that you will see the list of files that are being converted. You will also be able to see an indicator of the progress of the conversion. It really does work. Just to verify, the procedure I outlined is one that I did just prior to trying to write the instructions. It really isn't rocket science. Just choose the folder, only the folder, and click on the Convert button.
You'll notice that the button prompts you to select the folder, it doesn't say anything about selecting a file. You only select the folder that contains the files. You will never see a list of files using this method. If you only want to convert one or two images you can use the other method. Leave the DNG converter closed, open the folder containing the DNG files in your operating system folder browsing utility, choose the file you want to convert, and drag it onto the icon for the DNG converter. That is how you choose individual images.

CS3 with Codec MainConcept DVCPro HD CODEC v7 7 0 23862 rar - can't import AVCHD (m2ts files)

Hi,
I have a Panasonic hdc-sd9 and just looking for a programm with which I can import the AVCHD (m2ts files).
I saw here( http://www.videoaktiv.de/200805171688/News/Camcorder/Panasonic-Broadcast-AVCHD-goes-profes sional.html ) that Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 with the Codec MainConcept DVCPro HD CODEC should work for the Panasonic File Format.
I have saved one video as a mpg file. I imported it to Premiere Pro CS3. I could import the mpg File but I had not audio sound in Premiere Pro CS3, but the mpg movie, for example when I start the movie in Windows Media Player or VLC there is sound.
Somebody can help me or provide me another programm which work?
Do somebody have the same problem ?
Thanks
Cheers
Flo

Hi Harm,
Thanks for the answer.
But can an mpg File have 5.1 sorrund sound ? Is this not yet Stereo ?
This is one of the problems...
Do you maybe have an idea regarding the importing problem with the m2ts file too ?
Thanks a lot
cheers
Flo

So I updated to lightroom 3.6-now i cannot import any .nef files?

so I updated to lightroom 3.6-now i cannot import any .nef files? is that what you call progress?

Hi,
I'm not sure why you think Lightroom 3 will support the D610 as it was only announced on October 8, 2013. Support for the D610 was released in the Lightroom 5.3 RC, see Lightroom 5.3 RC now available on Adobe Labs
If you wish to use you D610 files in Lightroom 3.6 you will need to download the Adobe DNG Converter, convert your NEF to DNG and then import into Lightroom 3.6. The DNG Converter can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Windows
Or, better option is to upgrade to the current version of Lightroom

IPhoto 09: I suddenly can't import any more jpg-photos created by scanner with SilverFast Ai

I suddenly can't import any more jpg-pictures created by scanner with SilverFast. iPhoto says 'unknown format'. What can I do?

Since you can import into a library in the other user account there is something in your account that is the culprit. First make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - 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 down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Oost back with the results as there is one more text of your account that can be done if the above didn't help.
