Layer missing when I render?

I have created a short 4 second comp and it all plays back fine until I actually try to render it. I've tried rendering the layer on it's own in a seperate comp and it disappears then as well and just becomes a white screen, but the original one when put into a comp works fine. I've spent hours editing it and putting it in place so i really don't want to start again.
I'm fairly new to after effects but I haven't been able to find the answer on any other discussions. Is this a glitch or have I done something wrong?

Which layer is disappearing? Your screenshot shows Precomp -1 as the active comp. Is that what you are rendering? If you are having problems with things like this the first thing to try is a test render with the effects turned off for the layer you are having problems with.
Things look fine but I can't tell what goes missing. A flow chart of the rendered comp may also help find the problem.
Any layer styles? Any other things we can't see?

What is missing, when I render my Application for Mobile Support, like PDA?

Hello @ all,
I have a question about ADF Mobile.
I implemented a bean, which has a Method:
getRenderKitId(){
AdfFacesContext afc = AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Agent agent = afc.getAgent();
if(Agent.TYPE_PDA.equals(agent.getType().toString()))               return "oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.ui.laf.simple.pda";
else if(Agent.AGENT_GECKO.equals(agent.getAgentName()))
     return "com.apress.projsf.xul.ajax";
else if(Agent.AGENT_IE.equals(agent.getAgentName()) &&
Agent.TYPE_DESKTOP.equals(agent.getType()))
     return "com.apress.projsf.htc.ajax";
else if(Agent.AGENT_WEBKIT.equals(agent.getAgentName()))
     return "com.apress.projsf.html.ajax";
else
     return RenderKitFactory.HTML_BASIC_RENDER_KIT;
When I debug my Application on an PDA, this Method returns the right String for PDAs "oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.ui.laf.simple.pda".
I also have the public class DynamicRenderKitViewHandler extends ViewHandlerWrapper{
public String calculateRenderKitId(FacesContext context){
     String renderKitId = super.calculateRenderKitId(context);
     Matcher matcher = DYNAMICRENDER_KIT_ID.matcher(renderKitId);
     if(matcher.matches()){
     String expression = matcher.group(1);
          Application application = context.getApplication();
          ValueBinding binding = application.createValueBinding(expression);
          if(binding.getType(context) == String.class)
               renderKitId = (String) binding.getValue(context);
          return renderKitId;
The return Value of this Method is also oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.ui.laf.simple.pda.
So know my question is, what else do I have to implement, to render my components on a PDA. Because, when i run my Application on a Pocket PC 2003 with Windows CE, the Mobile Internet Browser shows me the same rendering page like it is on the "normal" PC Internet Browser.
Do I have to work with the ADF Faces Tags, like the <af:commandButton ...>
because, i don't use these tags.
The Libraries i have imported are, the adf-faces-api-10_1_3_0_4.jar file and simular the impl-jar.
Please could anybody help me?

Hello Jrozier,
first I wanne thank you for your reply.
Know my ApplicationBean getRenderKitId Method returns "oracle.adf.core"
I had wrote a little JSP that looks like the following:
<%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/html" prefix="afh"%>
<afh:html>
<afh:head>
     <title>Test Page</title>
</afh:head>
<afh:body>
Testing
</afh:body>
</afh:html>
But when I try to run my Application, I get the following error:

Strange audio issue when running render queue via script.

The issue I'm having with AE is odd, and I'm hoping someone may be able to shed light on the matter. I have a very simple composition that, when I render out using the GUI, everything works as expected. The video renders fine, the audio renders fine, etc. However, when I invoke a script that runs the .aep file, sets the render queue for the composition in question, and then renders it, only the video comes through, but no audio. There is nothing in my script prior to the setting up of the render queue that alters any audio layers (i.e. no code shutting off audio, etc.) Has anybody ever encountered this? The audio file is a .wav in 44.1KHz, 16bit, stereo, and will try other formats to see if the problem might with the file itself? Although, I don't see how that would be the case if it is rendering just fine via the GUI.
Any help you can offer for troubleshooting would be great! Thanks for your help and time!

Thanks for your suggestion. It wasn't the output module. I created a custom template for it and ensured the audio was checked. It was an odd fix. I deleted the audio layer, then dragged it back to the timline. Then, it worked. Cost me like two hours of work for that, and I should have checked it earlier. But I still don't know why the original wasn't working.

Keying and Rendering in Premiere Pro - Why does it cut the frame in half when I render?

I am keying a clip in Adobe Premiere and layering it over another clip. Looks great when I play back in the timelime but for some reason when I render the clip the bottom half of the frame goes missing as if I have cropped it out. If I then edit the clip in any way it comes back but of course,it's then un-rendered. I can't figure out why this happens. Anyone have an idea? Thanks!

Exactly what version of PPro do you have?
CC7.2 has a bug that sounds like what you're reporting. It was fixed in 7.2.1.
If you're on PPRO 7.2.1--and you're seeing this problem in clips encoded by AME--then try disabling the option "Enable native Premiere Pro sequence import" on the General tab of AME's preferences dialog. I don't know for a fact that this will resolve the problem, but it's a pretty good bet.

IMac 20-inch on OSX 10.7.4 running iphoto 11, my photos from my iphoto library have been deleted. I have time machine but the iphoto library file is missing when I access time machine, help please.

I have an imac 20-inch Late 2006 model on OSX 10.7.4 running iphoto 11, somehow the application ccleaner has deleted my photos from my iphoto library. I have time machine but the iphoto library file is missing when I access time machine.
To restore photos I have followed the steps below
Quit iPhoto.
Connect your Time Machine drive.
In the Finder, open the folder containing your iPhoto Library. Unless you've moved your iPhoto Library, it can be found in Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library.
Enter Time Machine. (Time Machine can be found in the Dock or in the /Applications folder.)
Choose your desired backup. The timeline on the right side of the screen displays a purple tick mark for each of the backups stored on your Time Machine drive.
Select the iPhoto library you would like to restore, and click the Restore button.
I dont get the option in step 6 as I dont have an iphoto library file to choose? Does anyone know why?

Hi Barry
Thanks but as mentioned all is intact, even at step 3 I can see the current library in Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library which has no photos, but when I access time machine any point before the NOW option the iphoto library in Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library is missing from the finder window.
As you can see here it is
and now its gone. I have no explanantion.
How do I go about moving this question as you suggested.

When I render my video I get a black bar on the left side of the screen

I just upgraded to FCS 2 and so far it's been a complete waste of money. I'm having nothing but problems with FCP, Compressor, and QMaster. I will just post my FCP problem here.
I've edited a weekly video podcast and everything looks great, until I render it and export it. When I render it, I get a constant, solid black bar on the far left of the video that takes up about 5% of the screen. My layers are definitely sized correctly to fill up the entire canvas, and they are all centered. I cannot figure out why I am getting this black bar or how to get rid of it without ditching the upgrade and going back to FCP5.1.
I have already tried completely uninstalling the FCS suite and reinstalling. No luck. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks for the reply.
My original source material is in Apple Intermediate Codec, with 32-bit float audio and a variable frame rate. This has not been friendly to FCP, so I use Quicktime to convert it to Apple ProRes with 24-bit audio and 29.97 frame rate. This is what I import into FCP.
My sequence settings are set to the same specs as my source material. 854x480, square pixels, no field dominance, Apple ProRes compression.
The black bar on the left side of the screen shows up before I even export. It shows up when I render everything.
I am exporting with Quicktime Conversion to:
MP4
h.264 codec
720x405
1000 video bit rate
Main Profile
No cropping/filters or anything.
The ONLY thing I did different before upgrading to FCP6 was that I used Apple Intermediate Codec all the way through. I was told by an FCP instructor that writes and publishes all kinds of FCP training material that I should upgrade to FCP6 and use the Apple ProRes422 Codec instead, so that's what I'm trying to do.
I am going back to restart my project using Apple Intermediate Codec all the way through like I used to, but it will be awhile before I can tell if that solved the problem. Either way, I would like to be using the ProRes codec....
Thoughts?

My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them?

My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them? I tried everything; such as auto hide the task bar. Even with this, I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar. I even tried the following and I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar.
1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste dom and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars preference to switch it from false to true. By choosing true, you disable sites from deciding whether there can be scrollbars on a window, and Firefox uses its standard behavior for the page.
If you want to always get other bars, here are the corresponding settings:
Menu Bar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.menubar
Navigation Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar
Bookmarks Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.personalbar
Please help.

PDF file pages missing when viewed in Adobe Reader XI

Hi All,
I have been made aware of a recent issue when viewing scanned PDF files in Adobe Reader XI. Pages are missing when the PDF file is viewed in Adobe Reader v.11.0.x though all pages are visible when file is viewed in Adobe Reader 10.1.5?
I can confirm I have checked Show large images option under Preferences -> Page -> Display, though this doesn't appear to have made a difference. I have been able to replicate this same issue on several other machines.
All machines checked and tested are running Windows 7 (64-bit).
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Never heard of such an issue. Can you share such a PDF with the forum? See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1408375

Why are Java SASLFactories missing when called via PL/SQL but not from JRE?

Hi
This may be quite a technical point about SASL and JCE Providers etc OR it may just be a question about how Oracle PL/SQL interfaces with Java.
The background is that I am trying to get a Java opensource library to run in Oracle DB - this is for specialized communication from Database to other servers.
The library uses a SASL mechanism to authenticate with the server and this (appears) to rely on JCE Providers installed and provided by the JRE.
I have some Java code working which uses the library - this runs OK in NetBeans/Windows environment and also using Linux/Oracle JRE directly such as:
  +# $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/bin/java -classpath "./MyMain.jar:./OtherSupport.jar" package.TestClient+
However it refuses to work (throws a NullPointerException) when called from PL/SQL.
  +FUNCTION send_a_message (iHost IN VARCHAR2,+
     iPort IN NUMBER,
    +iLogin IN VARCHAR2,+
    +iPasswd IN VARCHAR2,+
     iRecipient IN VARCHAR2,
     iMessage IN VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER
   AS LANGUAGE JAVA
   NAME package.TestClient.sendATextMessage(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) return int';
In the Java code this is:
   public static int sendATextMessage(String iHost,
     int iPort,
     String iLogin,
     String iPasswd
     String iRecipient,
     String iMessage)
I've tracked the issue down to there being no SaslClientFactories (via Sasl.getSaslClientFactories()) showing when called from PL/SQL whereas 3 are available when run from within Java directly. This via:
   Enumeration<SaslClientFactory> facts = Sasl.getSaslClientFactories();
   System.out.println("Found Sasl Factories [" & (facts != null) & "] size[" & Collections.list(facts).size() & "]");
So, is there some aspect of Java initialisation that I'm missing when calling from PL/SQL (which means SASL factories aren't getting loaded into JRE) or is there something different in SASL setup?
Any pointers appreciated.
Thanks
Dave

Ok, after a bit of reading and general hacking about I have got this working.
What I hadn't initially understood/remembered is that for a Stored Procedure the JVM installed on file system with Oracle isn't actually used - java code is loaded into the database and hence a different set of base functions are available. The following is a good explanation of this http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B14117_01/java.101/b12021/appover.htm#BGBIBDAJ
So "out of the box" the Oracle Database appears to come loaded with only two of the Sun security providers i.e. no com.sum.security.SASL
>
OBJECT_NAME             OBJECT_TYPE     STATUS   TIMESTAMP
com/sun/security/auth/NTSid  JAVA CLASS    VALID   2013-02-14:14:08:57
com/sun/security/jgss/GSSUtil    JAVA CLASS    VALID   2013-02-14:14:08:57
>
This is from:
>
SELECT
  object_name,
  object_type,
  status,
  timestamp
FROM
  user_objects
WHERE
  (object_name NOT LIKE 'SYS_%' AND
   object_name NOT LIKE 'CREATE$%' AND
   object_name NOT LIKE 'JAVA$%' AND
   object_name NOT LIKE 'LOADLOB%') AND
   object_type LIKE 'JAVA %' AND
   object_name LIKE 'com/sun/security%'
ORDER BY
  object_type,
  object_name;
>
My solution (which may well be a work-around) is the following:
1) Downloaded JDK Source and extracted "com.sun.security.sasl" java code to my project
2) Added following code to my Stored Procedure ()
>
Enumeration<SaslClientFactory> saslFacts = Sasl.getSaslClientFactories();
if (!saslFacts.hasMoreElements()) {
  System.out.println("Sasl Provider not pre-loaded");
  int added = Security.addProvider(new com.sun.security.sasl.Provider());
  if (added == -1) {
    System.out.println("Sasl Provider could not be loaded");
    System.exit(added);
  else {
    System.out.println("Sasl Provider added");
>
3) Built my JAR file with the sasl package embedded (note: could only find Java 6 code, so had to comment out some GSS lines - but wasn't intending to use these)
4) Loaded JAR to oracle via "loadjava".
5) Add permissions (only found this out after a couple of failed runs)
>
call dbms_java.grant_permission('XMPP', 'SYS:java.security.SecurityPermission', 'putProviderProperty.SunSASL', '' );
call dbms_java.grant_permission('XMPP', 'SYS:java.security.SecurityPermission', 'insertProvider.SunSASL', '' );
>
6) Run gives the following:
>
Sasl Provider not pre-loaded
Sasl Provider added
...etc...
>
It works!. I confess I'm not sure of the implications of this for multiple calls/performance and if it will need to be added for each stored procedure call - may post back.
For completeness I should point out that after my load the Security providers look like this:
>
OBJECT_NAME             OBJECT_TYPE     STATUS   TIMESTAMP
com/sun/security/auth/NTSid    JAVA CLASS    INVALID  2013-02-15:09:11:36
com/sun/security/jgss/GSSUtil    JAVA CLASS    INVALID  2013-02-15:09:11:37
com/sun/security/sasl/Provider    JAVA CLASS    VALID    2013-02-15:10:03:21
>
i.e. the original couple are "INVALID" !

I believe I understand what you're asking, but which current DAQmx driver are you using with LV 2010? Only the 9.1.5 and above drivers are compatible with LV 2010, while many of the older drivers will still work for you in LV 8.6. Below, I've linked a compatibility chart for DAQmx drivers and Labview versions.

It's not clear from your post, but you do realise
that if you import a cd as a compilation, it will not
appear under artists? This is done to save the iPod
being cluttered up with single artists entries who
might have only one song listed.
I wasn't aware of that. It's true that I haven't been using the "compilation" tag for a long time. I've only started using it with iTunes 7 as otherwise with Coverflow I would have one album cover for each artist in a compilation. Before that my compilations weren't tagged as such as that is quite probably why each artist from compilations showed up when browsing by artists.

Address Book - Title of a person is missing when entry has no first name

In Address Book - the title (prefix) of a person is missing when the contact has no first name. This is an issue both in the way that the names are displayed in the 'name' panel of Address Book, but more importantly when I print out a list of contacts if they don't have a first name it misses off their title. I need a list of all my customers printing off and also to print mailing labels for them.
Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Bonn.
Yes, I have the same in AddressBook in US English, if I use "prefix" for Dr.
But if I just "First Name" >> "Dr. Louis" "Last name" "Shapiro", it works fine. I never thought to use the prefix, so ignorance is bliss
