Installing After Effects on headless render nodes

I'm trying to install After Effects CS5.5 render engine on a set of render nodes that don't have DVD drives (or any optical drive).  I was advised to copy the install files from the DVD to the desktop via flash drive.  I did that and the install starts OK but then it asks for the 2nd disc.  I copied that disc's content to the desktop also but I can't get it to find it.  Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks,
Scott

You should be able to copy all of the files off of the disc into the same folder and it should work, but if you are having trouble, you can download the trial of CS5.5.
The trials are located here - http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html.  There is a forum post about installing previous trials - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369.
On the download page, please read the whole page before clicking the links - people miss some important information on the page that causes issues.

    We use intel mac pro as workstation, and our servers are windows 2003 servers.
    After Effect cs4 H264 render  on network without any problem bud jpeg not.

    Perhaps you must just enable the Allow Encoding using Legacy CoDecs option in the Quicktime control panel on the network machine or else some of that may not show up. Of course make sure QT is installed correctly in teh first place, as Todd and Rick said. On a server, you may need to set special group policies for that to work, also.

  • 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.

  • Adobe Desktop Application no longer loads after failing to install After Effects CC

    Hi,
    I just tried to install After Effects from the Desktop Application and it failed. Not only that, the application crashed and won't load anymore. I tried a reboot and it didn't do anything. I can see the process "Creative Cloud" in Activity Monitor, but nothing in the Apple Toolbar where it normally resides.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
    I'm using Mac OS 10.7.5 on a Mac Pro.

    You may need to uninstall and reinstall... running the cleaner after the uninstall

  • After Installing after effects I get a Runtime Error Pure Virtual Function Call

    I installed After Effects, the trial, onto my pc which meets all the requirments, and I keep getting a runtime error.  I have reinstalled windows, i have used several registry programs and still nothign.  Please help!

    onto my pc which meets all the requirments
    Well, if you are so sure, then why don't you tell us in more detail what PC it actually is? If you have re-installed the operating system and all and AE still doesn't run, then most likely your PC does not meet the requirements or at least uses some strange hardware/ software combination that is not compatible with AE... What operating system? Processor? Graphics card? Other components?

  • Trouble installing After Effects cs6 on my new Yosemite system.

    I then attempted to install all the software from my old computer. Installed Entire cs6 suite, after effects is greyed out.
    When i tried to open, i received an error " You can’t use this version of the application “Adobe After Effects CS6” with this version of OS X. You have “Adobe After Effects CS6” 11.0. "
    I then read online that there was fix by updating to After Effects to 11.4. Due to the fact that i cant open program to update from within i downloaded update and tried to install via the installer. I acts like it it will start even giving a timeline of how long it will take then closes and says update failed.
    It then says you can look at error log, when i do it says  " Adobe After Effects CS6 (11.0.4) update Update is not applicable. Error Code: U44M2P28 ".
    Anyone knows how i can fix this issue and get after effects working? Thanks in advance

    There have been a few people having problems getting updates and a few different solutions. It all depends on what's messed up on your machine.
    It could be as simple as fixing permissions: fixing permissions problem that impedes start of Adobe applications
    Somewhat advanced, but it worked for somebody: Unable to upgrade to 11.0.1 for AE CS6
    You may have to defeat a daemon... Newly installed After Effects CS6 won't launch.
    One solution for a different OS and AE version, but might solve it: Mavericks and AE 12.0/12.1/12.2

  • Just installed After Effects CC - now my Photoshop CC crashes on open

    I just installed After Effects CC.
    When I open Photoshop CC (has been installed for months working fine).  It opens, but if I click anything on the interface, I get the spinning beach ball and it freezes.
    I uninstalled After Effects CC using the Adobe Uninstaller in Utilities in Applications.
    After uninstalling After Effects, Photoshop worked fine.
    I re-installed After Effects, made sure it completed installation and ran all necessary updates.
    Opened Photoshop - same problem - freezes on launch.
    Please help! I need to complete this work today!

    I have found a fix:
    Go to this folder: User > Library > Preferences
    Right click on the 'Adobe' folder and click 'Get info'
    Click the lock in the bottom right to unlock this pane and enter your password
    Under 'Sharing & Permissions', Give all users the "Read & Write" permission
    Click on the cog at the bottom of this pane
    Click Apply to enclosed items
    Enter your password and voila! - Photoshop works as it should.
    I hope this works for everyone else, too.

    Unistall any ACR Betas on your system you may have used. Also simply run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and reinstall everything Adobe.
