Memory Preferences Resetting to 0

Every time I open Premiere or Media Encoder the Memory (RAM) for other applications is set to 0. With this, anytime you try to use AME for anything, it crashes.  I've changed it several times but it will go back (after closing the program) and then crashes all the Adobe products. I have Premeire Pro Cs5.5 on a Windows 8, HP Phoenix Envy with 12 GB of RAM. I'm getting no message, just a crash. I unstalled the program and re-installed it. The preferences were set that all the RAM should go to the Adobe products when I checked it. The computer is just out of the box. My company recently bought several to expand our video editing department. All the other computers with the exact same specs are not having this problem.

  • Display preferences reset

    For some reason my display preferences reset at every bootup recently. I have to launch display preferences and as soon as it opens my calibration setting kick in. I have zapped p-ram, repaired promotions, even deleted my calibration files and made new ones.
    Any ideas besides get a new Mac? I am waiting for the new Intel Towers to come out but then this one goes to my son when I get my i6.

    Hi, vandar.
    Well, I wish you had mentioned the Huey earlier. Let me see if I understand the problem now more fully.
    You've written: "For some reason my display preferences reset at every bootup recently. I have to launch display preferences and as soon as it opens my calibration setting kick in."and"I am using a Huey for monitor calibration."By Huey I presume you mean the Pantone display calibration device.
    1. So, are you saying that the calibrations you've made with your Huey do not load at startup, but simply opening System Preferences > Displays they then load automatically?
    2. You're also running dual 17-inch monitors, correct? Did you calibrate both monitors?
    3. Is the Huey a new addition, or have you been using it for awhile and this problem just arose? If the latter, what changes, if any, did you make to your Mac before this problem arose?
    4. If you had to install software on your Mac to use the Huey, do you have the latest software download from Pantone?
    5. This makes me wonder if the Pantone software, if any, should also be launching a Startup or Login item to load the calibrations as part of startup or login. Have you checked the Huey's documentation?
    6. You wrote: "Can't fit everything in the "Other Details" section.
    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   G4 733MHz, 1GB ram, ATI VGA & NVIDIA GeFOrce2 MX w/ 2-17", 1TB Hard Drive space, USB2 card"This should fit on the two lines and you can still select Mac OS X 10.4.6 in the OS field:
    PM G4 G4 733MHz, 1GB RAM, ATI VGA & GeForce2 MX, 2x17" displays, 1 TB HDD, USB2 card, Huey
    If the displays are LCDs, substitute "LCDs" for "displays" in the above.
    Good luck!

  • Can I delete the files in ~/Library/Preferences and have all preferences reset to factory default?

    I have this folder inside my /Library folder called Preferences. I was wondering if I could delete all of the files inside this folder and have all of my preferences reset to the factory default?

    First, why would you want to do this? I ask because all of the applications installed also have preference files. Some of the preference files store things like serial numbers. Some programs that use plugins that use serial numbers also store the serial numbers in the host program's preference file. RapidWeaver is an example of this.
    So, If you deleted all of the files in your preference folder, you could have some major headaches for a while afterward.
    If you are curious, there is a program called AppleJack that only runs in Single User mode. It can check preference files for you. There are several others available that cost money. AppleJack is a free open source application.
    Hope this helps,
    Craig

  • Preferences resetting themselves?

    Not sure if it is just my machine, but after I installed snow leopard (before update) I noticed that some of my system settings just "reset" themselves. Desktop picture changed, Spaces settings just disappeared, printer settings and trackpad settings have lost their settings. Anyone else experincing these kinds of weird things?

    Yep, as I posted the other day. My preferences reset themselves. Don't know what it is. Didn't have that problem before installing Snow Leopard. Also, any preference pane I've added say that System Preferences has to restart in order for the preference to run. Saw somewhere this had to do with some 64 bit thing. Also, I have issues with QuickTime. Some movies won't start when I double click them, but will do fine when I open them from the Quicktime pulldown menu. AND printing is all messed up. Apple still has lots of issues with this OS version which need to get fixed ASAP. 10.6.1 was a start.

  • Keyboard system preferences resetting after restart

    Greetings,
    I began with 2 similar problems.  My menu bar and keyboard system preferences would reset after each startup.  I fixed the former with https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6028346?tstart=0 
    Still, every time I restart or logout my keyboard system preferences reset to the default.  These defaults interfere with the software I run- Logic & Pro Tools, so while not the worst thing to have to remember to reset them each time, it is a drag.
    Any help will be appreciated
    Thanks

    The procedure below will reset the permissions of a user's home folder in OS X 10.7.4 or later, including 10.8 or later. If you're running an earlier version of 10.7, update to the latest version first. This procedure should not be used under OS X versions older than 10.7.4.
    Back up all data before you begin.
    Step 1
    Click the Finder icon in the Dock. A Finder window will open.
    Step 2
    Press the following key combinations, in the order given:
    Command-3
    Shift-command-H
    Command-I (the letter "I" as in "Info.")
    The Info window of your home folder will open.
    Step 3
    Click the lock icon in the lower right corner and authenticate with the name and login password of an administrator on the system. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Step 4
    In the Sharing & Permissions section of the window, verify that you have "Read & Write" privileges. If not, use the "+" and "-" buttons in the lower left corner to make the necessary changes.
    Step 5
    By default, the groups "staff" and "everyone" have "Read Only" privileges. With those settings, the files at the top level of your home folder will be readable by other local users. You can change the privileges to "No Access" if you wish, but then your Public and Drop Box folders will be inaccessible to others. Most likely, you don't need to change these settings.
    Step 6
    If there are entries in the Sharing & Permissions list for users or groups other than "me," "staff," and "everyone," delete them.
    Step 7
    Click the gear icon at the bottom of the Info window and select Apply to enclosed items... from the drop-down menu. Confirm. The operation may take several minutes to complete. When it does, close the Info window.

  • System Memory Controller reset

    I'm using a 17" MacBookPro with Final Cut Pro and have an intermittent problem that the headphones will not override the laptop speakers. The Geniuses told me I am not shutting the computer down often enough, so I began shutting it down every day. I was told to use system memory controller reset (it involves turning the computer off, simultaneously hitting the Left Shift/Option/Command keys with the Power button, then restarting as usual) to restore the headphone  connection, but this is a bit of a hassle in the middle of a project, and the problem persists. Anyone else having this problem?

    I use pro-grade Sennheiser headphones, so I don't think it's the jack. I took the laptop into the Apple Store here and a seemingly very competent Genius ran it through all the tests only to tell me there were no mechanical or  OS related problems with the computer, just that I had to shut the sytem down more often than the every three days or so I had been doing. Since I've been doing this and the problem hasn't gone away, I'm very suspicious that noondaywitch and fane_j are closer to the mark and it's something mechanical inside the laptop.
    Thanks for the feedback.

  • Safari Preferences resets my homepage to "Top Sites"

    Safari Preferences resets my homepage to "Top Sites" every time I turn on my computer.  I would like to set my Homepage to my Yahoo mail page just once and have it stay at that setting. I have an OX S 10.9.5. I reset my preferences every time I turn on my computer but my choices aren't saved when I shut down my computer.

    You installed "SearchMe" or some other malicious Safari extension.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Remove all extensions with the word "Spigot" in the description. If in doubt, remove all extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.

  • Profile preferences reset to "Read Only" after turning it off.

    I cannot start Firefox. It says it is already running. Task Manager does not show any instances running. There is no "parent.lock" file in the "......default" folder. Each time I look at the preferences for the "profile" folder, it shows "read only" is set. I clear it and the next time I look at the preferences "read only" is set.
    I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox but it still resets"read only". Looks like the profile folder has something corrupt in it.

    Only a check mark in the Read-only box means that a folder or file is Read-only.<br />
    Windows doesn't check all the files in a folder so instead displays a green block to indicate that it is not sure.<br />
    You always need to look at the files individually.<br />
    Easiest to do that is to make the Attributes visible in "View > Details" mode: Choose Details in Windows Explorer.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Mail preferences resetting or glitch?!

    We just switched my wife from Entourage to Mail in Leopard and some of the preferences keep resetting. The most annoying is "Send mail from:" in the Compose tab keeps resetting to "last used account" instead of one particular account that we have selected 3 TIMES! The other issue was that even though we had left checked "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message:" in the Advanced tab of the Accounts window in preferences. It resulted in her main mail server maxing out and bouncing back new messages today. Has this happened to anyone else? Another factor might have been that we just added a .Mac account to her mail accounts to try and back some of her stuff up to .Mac. Very frustrating...

    Not answered, just wanted to get this off my unresolved question list.

  • Hotkey preferences reset to default everytime I reboot

    I just got my first Mac ever (something I've been wanting since High School, but could never afford), and I absolutely positively love it. What was I thinking? Sticking with a PC for all these years?!
    Well, I have stumbled onto a little bug/issue.
    I use software like Photoshop and Flash on this Mac quite often, so naturally I wish to reserve the "F"-keys for those applications. And as such, in the Mac preferences, under "Keyboard & nfo>MacBook PrMouse" I check the box next to "Use the F1-F12 keys to control software.."
    OK, so I've got the F keys disabled now.
    There are only three Mac-specific hotkeys I wish to map, particulary the "All Windows", "Desktop" and "Dashboard". So I select the "Keyboard Shortcuts" under the Keyboard & Mouse Preferences, and map out those three functions by using Command+F10, Command+F11 and Command+F12 respectively.
    It works fine now, right? Yep, all of my F keys do nothing (as they should, since they are reserved for application-speficif use), and the way I activate "Desktop", or "Dashboard" is by using the aforementioned combination which I've mapped in Keyboard Shortcuts.
    Now, this is the problem. If I reboot my Mac, those three mapped out hotkeys are reset to F10, F11, and F12 (instead of being combined with the Command key).
    If anyone could give me a tip or a suggestion on how to get those Keyboard Shortcuts to retain their settings after a reboot, I would totally appreciate it. Thanks you guys!

  • Preferences reset upon restart

    Hey all,
    Been having some strange issues with Lion, or at least I think its Lion.. So here I am on my MacBook pro from 2010, reinstalling Snow Leopard and Lion afterwards. I install the updates and some programs (Plex, uTorrent, Chrome) only to realize that when I restart, some preferences completely ignored.. All programs added to the Dock are gone again, the assigned log-in items don't start up, iCloud was logged out again, mail settings were reset..
    I reinstalled the whole thing, except for Lion, and it all worked fine. So anyway, I thought it was the laptop. Some sort of hardware problem or something, right? So I just got this new Mac mini, with Lion, and it does the same exact thing.
    It doesn't remember some changes I made. I tried to repair permissions, but it doesn't do anything. Can anyone help me with this? Does anyone have seen the same problem?

    Hi, I have only a tiny sub-set of these issues. But it started after I installed Lion. My issue is simply the auto-shutdown feature. I try to have this i-Mac shut down every day at 11 PM and restart at 6 AM. It worked perfectly with Snow Leopard. Sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't. Some days I'll check on it early in the morning and it'll show the message that "This computer is shutting down X seconds". Today at 5 AM it was simply running with no messages, and probably had been running all night. I'd really like to get this feature to work. I've searched these boards and tried all the suggestions to no avail.

  • System Preferences Resetting with Reboot

    Since I upgraded to Mavericks I have this really annoying problem that my system preferences keep resetting with every reboot I make. For example the wacom driver resets to project the tablet on both displays instead of just one and the audio adjustments are resetting as well. I tried the PRAM- and the SMC- Reset but nothing seemed to work for me. Any help is greatly appriciated

  • Preferences reset on exit

    when I exit Photoshop all my preferences are being reset instead of saved. I.E. cursors, units and rulers, actions, desktop layout, etc. I am using CS5 on a PC running Windows 8

    I removed the entire preferences folder from the user and restarted to no effect. I moved the folder to my Documents, but didn't trash them. Would that have made a difference?
    I don't remember what Disk Utility said, will try it again tomorrow, and I haven't tried booting from the disc. I'll give them a test tomorrow and let you know.
    Thanks,
    Arthur

  • Date modified timestamps resetting on login (mouse user preferences reset)

    Hi,
    Using network accounts on 10.8.2 off a 10.8.2 server.
    All files in user directory have 'date modified' timestamps reset to login time.
    This occures for all users.
    This I believe is also causing mouse user preferences to be reset on login.
    Has anyone come across this problem?
    I migrated from 10.7.4 Server to 10.8 Server
    Any ideas anyone?

    Hi
    I am just "happy" to see that I'm not the only one having the exact same trouble.
    The "date modified" resets to last login time, user preferences (particularly some of the trackpad, keyboard and dock prefs) are thrown away and in part reset to some default values.
    My setup is various iMacs with their HomeDirectories on the server, all machines with 10.8.2 (Server) installed.
    Could Apple help?

  • ITunes content removed and preferences reset

    I had iTunes opened up a couple hours ago and closed out of it like I normallly do.  I just tried to open it up again and all content from iTunes was gone.  There was no music in the library, no movies, no podcasts.  I looked in preferences and everything was reset to the original settings.  The library name was incorrect, the selected sources were incorrect and some options in the "advanced" tab were incorrect.  Nobody had access to my computer from the last time I used it until now. How do I restore it back to how it was a few hours ago?

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.
