Im having a hard time getting AE to run even though I know it should

Hey guys, Ive been starting to try and get into using after effects. I have put lots of stuff together in premiere pro and want to add some effects but i can hardly get it to even playback the file in the preview window, won't even scrub through hardly.
Premiere pro cs6 runs smooth and renders out iin good time.
My system specs are:
I have changed a few settings while playing around as per some pages I found on here about ram allocation and CPU stuff heres thos settings.
Im kind of at a loss with what else to do... Any thought are appreciated, I have a ssd on the way but Im not sure It will make all that much of a difference
Thanks
Elliott

"...i can hardly get it to even playback the file in the preview window, won't even scrub through hardly. Premiere pro cs6 runs smooth and renders out iin good time."
I hope you don't expect AE to work like Premiere. It doesn't.
There's nothing wrong with your machine or with your software that's immediately apparent, either.
Premiere does one thing, AE does something else. They don't work the same. You don't use them the same way. AE is a totally different application than Premiere, and just like Premiere, you have to begin at the beginning if you want to learn it. People who try to use AE intuitively end up failing about 90% of the time.
So here's a good place to start.
I STRONGLY recommend you use it and you don't blow it off. If you do, you're only hurting yourself. Seriously.
I don't care how good you think you are, you'll miss some important detail vital to using AE, and your work will come to a grinding halt.

HT204406 I authorized a second computer on my iTunes account, and downloaded my library from the Cloud to my new computer. However, many songs only partially downloaded, and now I'm having a hard time getting rid of them to do full downloads.

I authorized a second computer on my iTunes account and tried to get my first computer's library on my second computer via the Cloud. Many of the songs only partially downloaded, and I am having a hard time getting rid of the library with the partial downloads (so I can get full songs). I am considering nuking the current iTunes on the second computer and re-installing, giving myself a clean slate to work with. Is this the right way to go?

Having a hard time getting iMac (Alum) to start up

I had to force restart my imac because it ended up freezing in Front Row. When it restarted it didn't pick up that my Time Maching Hard Drive was connected, so later in the day I restarted again and it will usually pick it up and when I restarted it my iMac wouldn't boot up. The apple symbol came up with the cirle that rotates, but it did nothing past that and I gave it 5 mins becuase it has never taken longer than that. I then tried it again, but it still wouldn't boot. I decided to leave it off and unplugged for the night.
I tried it the next day and still had a hard time. I would unplug everything and hold the power button down (was told by a customer service rep to do this with an earlier problem) and the I plug everything back in and try again, but nothing. I then would hold down the power button until I hear the long tone and then it would restart and I finally got it to boot up, but this doesnt' work every time. Once it rebooted, my dock was back to its original state and my hot spots were turned off. I also wanted to to access my accounts and I had it locked and when I press the unlock icon, not thing happens, which is not usual.
Everytime I restart my computer I get the white screen, so I have to shut it off and try again. Sometimes it takes me 5 or more times of trying different things to get it to boot up. Do you have any suggestions?

Welcome to Apple Discussions:
I don't think Front Row has anything to do with it. It sounds like a HD going bad, or some other hardware - logic board, etc.
Can you safe boot? Hold down shift key on boot and at login screen select restart. See if system then reboots normally.
Boot into your Leopard DVD and repair HD and permissions.
If you have DiskWarrior, use it.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Having a hard time getting a iPod touch 4g case off

I can not get this case off my Ipod touch 4g: Griffin Outfit Ice Case for iPod touch (4th Gen.) I can get the top part off if I pull extremely hard but the bottom part does not even seem to move. Any ideas how to get the bottom part off. Could cleaning the edges off it help?

I could not get the case off of mine either. I ended up slipping (very carefully) a butter knife under the back to release the seal. Before I put it back on I rubbedva thin film of mineral oil on the inside of the case and haven't had a problem since. I still have to pull hard to get it out but it doesn't stick as it did before. Hope this helps.

How could this have happened and what can I do to get it running again?

Didnt realize there was a response, late getting back to you.
Save your process files outside of the NI progam directory (you should have external backups already right ). THey should not be deleted.
Any customizations to the lookout.ini and lookout.sec file may be lost.

Having a hard time with permissions to create dir and files in www

Having a hard time getting permissions to create directories and files in www folder:
I followed the following guide here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/ … arch-linux and here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/ … arch-linux
So now I have a LEMP stack which runs fine and I have my root account secured and a new username "adriano". If I SFTP into the server using the username adriano, I am unable to create any files or directories. Trying to do a simple wordpress install doesn't work because I need to be able to create a folder for it, and a wp-config.php file. Both of which, like I mentioned, I do not have permissions to do. Yes, the username "adriano" has been added to the sudoers file via visudo.
I've never been very good at UNIX permissions so I was wondering if maybe someone can help me out?
Also, since I am using nginx it does not seem like I have a www-data group or user and my www folder is /usr/share/nginx/
Thank you,
AJ

No, no, you guys misunderstand me. I am not that much of an oblivious person. 95% of the time I understand EXACTLY what the code that I am copying and pasting does. And when I don't, I look into it further before executing said commands. I just tend to not remember commands so I google them, see examples, and then copy and paste them to avoid the busy work of typing out long strings. For example, it took me like 6 months to remember that to untar a .tar.gz file it was -xvfz.
But I digress. drcouzelis, I do have root access. It's my own VPS. However, I have always used shared hosting through different hosting providers and now that I got a VPS and have to do everything myself, I am a little bit lost.
I followed what wonderwoofy said and created a www-data group, added the adriano user to said group, and changed the owner of my http server root to www-data, and I SFTPed into the server again with filezilla and it still works perfectly. However, those "hordes of hackers" drcouzelis warned me about does not sound pleasant so I am really really really hoping one of you guys can tell me the next steps. Root login is disabled in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file, and I also changed the port to a random port I created. My web files are all served from /usr/share/nginx/ (there are different folders in there that correspond to different domains.) Now what I am wondering is that if user "adriano" is in the sudoers file as ALL=(ALL) ALL, doesn't that pretty make adriano the same as the root user? The reason why I am so worried about this is because I heard/read countless times that working through the root user is BADDDDDDDDDD and will bring evil and shame upon your life (not in those exact words) and that you should never work with it. Also, do I have to worry about anything dealing with groups and/or users and/or permissions when it comes to PHP? I have php-fpm installed.
I am willing to buy anyone who can help me out with this a beer or two and I will be forever in your debt.
Thank you,
AJ

Having a hard time OC'ing my Q6600 on the P7N SLI platinum!!

Well, first of all, I am new here, so hello to you all guys!
I just purchased the p7n yesterday. I had a P6N SLi-V2 before and wasn't able to get over the 3.0 GHz (stable)! I thought the P7N will a much better overclocker but find myself having a really hard time get it over 3.0 GHz again!?
Tried different versions of the bios (1.0,1.1,P04 and now 2.0) with no succes! Maybe anyone can help me out here and maybe share some bios setup? Will really appreciate it
My rig:
Q6600 C2Q G0-stepping
Tuniq Tower 120 CPU cooler
P7N SLI Platinum
1 x 2 GB TakeMS PC6400 DDR2 RAM
2 x MSI NX8800GT OC 512MB
1 x 200 GB + 1 x 250 GB HD
Cooler Master Extreme Power 650w

Quote from: troopertroop on 20-April-08, 22:22:09
Man, this turns out to be like a disaster :S:S I tried everything and now it won't even be stable @ 3.0 GHz with vcore 1.35, vram 2.2, fsb vtt 1.45, nb 1.4 and SB 1.5 (random reboots like crazy!). I have the intention to get some better OC's going from a p6n sli v2 to this board and it's even doing WORSE??????? The only weakpoint I can think about is my single stick 2GB TakeMS pc6400, but I never go over the stock speed of 800 MHz, so can that still be a bottleneck even at stock speed or even lower?
Any help will be welcome...
I found out the hard way.........if you are not running memory from the QVL list with this mobo, you will have problems with it. I was running mine with team xtreem 3-3-3-8 microns and all I had was errors and corruption when I overclocked. I had to reformat and switch back to the performance bios and now running corsair dominators 3-4-3-9 and this is the first set that can run at 1200 mhz at 5-5-5-18 2T 2.2 v with the fsb at 1600. I 'm using an E8400. I have read that using non approved memory and this board will not overclock properly. The only non approved memory that works in my system is geil ultra 8000's and these are the originals running D9GCT's. For stability you should try OCZ, Corsair, Mushkin, Buffalo, Kingston. I have also had problems with crucial ballistix as I've found most of there modules are in someway defective and or not compatible with MSI and have rma multiple sets. I have a previous post going from P6N FI to P7N and have listed all the memory that I have tried on this board. OCZ and corsair work the best and geil can be used but will not oc past 1142 mhz with stability. I think after a few bios updates this board will be able to use more different types of memory without stability issues.
