My PC shuts down during render after CC update

Hello all,
I just rendered a video last week with no issues. I updated After Effects CC a few days ago and now my PC shuts off about half way through a render. It is only a ten second clip with very little effects in it.
I have tried different video formats and codecs, I also tried to render the project in Media Encoder and Premiere Pro...the same result. My system is fine and I was rendering videos no problem until this update. Can we roll back updates?
I can't get through to Adobe to get help so I am trying the forum. This video is due tomorrow so I will probably lose a lot of money and a client.

I do appreciate the suggestion, I thought about doing the same approach. I had to dumb down my graphics a lot to at least get the titles done in After Effects. I basically had to recreate my animation, add one effect, render, and wait to see if it shuts down. I was able to render all of the effects, particle systems, motion blur, and camera movements last week with no issues. I updated to AE 12.1 and now I can't render anything but basic applications.
I am now having the issue in Premiere Pro CC after it's update. I rendered out three one minute videos with no problem in Premiere Pro CC last night. I did some edits to a five minute video that I have been working on for a few weeks today, go to render, about half way through...shut down. I am sure that I will have to start another thread on that issue.
I am about ready to get out of Adobe and go to Autodesk for editing and compostiting if these issues keep happening.
Adobe Tech support claims that my PC isn't powerful enough to handle AE and PPRO CC, but I was rendering with both programs with no issues a week ago. There is no problem with my PC. I believe they have no answer to my problem. I may have to reinstall CC and not update, but I know that I need them for other issues in the programs. I am stuck and I have projects due.
Thank you for listening to my venting. I will update if I find a solution.

Computer shuts down during render/prerender

This was not my original problem but it has occured before and I know it will occur again.
My computer shuts down for no reason when I try to render or prerender video in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. From what I can tell it is a general issue with premiere that I am having. I have tried multiple video formats, multiple video lengths, and multiple rendering options and I am still getting random shut downs during rendering.
Here are some specs for my computer which is a laptop:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit OS)
Proccessor: Intel Core 2 Duo @ 3.0 ghz
Ram: 8 gigs of it
Video: Nvidia Geforce 9600M GT
1 Hard Drive w/ 280 gb of space
As a recap.... My exact problem is that during the rendering or pre rendering proccess my computer simply shuts down as in it turns off.
I can also add that the computer does act strangely leading me to believe that theres some hardware or software incompatibility. While it is rendering I can hear the CPU fan pick up which is usually normal for any rendering application but what I noticed was that it doesnt stop speeding up. Its like if it was going into an overload and I can confirm that at its peak, the computer shuts down.
To add troubles... whenever I pre render any video and it succesfully renders.... Premeire will hang up really really bad if I try to play the pre rendered preview. In otherwords when you preview a video that it pre rendered it usually plays smooth and everything is fine. After I pre render something though and play it I can tell its locking up because the timeline bar is really jumpy and the video playback skips also.
This is the problem I would really love fixed. I usually have to button smash my keyboard until I lock premiere up and then once it unfreezes itself i can preview my work smoothly. This is however like a good 5 mins of my time trying to get the preview to play smoothly though so its really hurting how fast I can work.
If anyone can help me out I would greatly appreciate it. I will be trying to run the same stuff on my older laptop and observe the results. I personally think CS4 is incompatible with windows 7.

If you have a recent nVidia driver installed, you might want to check to see if you have either of these two modules loaded - check in the nVidia console:
PhysX, or 3D Stereovision. If you have them, definitely disable 3D Stereo, and test. If no improvement, disble PhysX and test.
Also, try adjusting your Hardware Acceleration. If Max, set to Min and test. If Min, set to Max and test. If either helps, try incrementing up, or down, until it no longer helps.
Last, check your OpenGL settings. If ON, turn OFF. If OFF, turn ON.
It appears that you have a laptop. Is that correct?
Good luck,

Macbook pro shuts down during reboot after flat battery

Hi, I have a macbook pro (early 2011) And it went flat two nights ago whilst watching a movie. It was plugged in but I've been having charger issues. Anyway, now that it's fully charged, whenever i turn it on it gets to the apple logo with a progress bar (restoring the previous session maybe?), but then shuts down. I've tried a few times and its the same everytime.I suspect that it's trying to restore the last session (the progress bar - I cant recall whether that happens normally) and running into problems because of the flat battery episode. Can a session restore be cancelled?
I can still boot up the windows partition by pressing the option button during start up, its just the mac partition that wont boot. Also, I am still running Snow Leopard (what it came with, though with all updates).any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone?

Mac Mini shuts down during startup after update

I've got a Late 2009 Mac Mini running Snow Leopard Server. Occasionally, it takes me awhile to restart after updates, so this could be due to the most recent update or possibly the combination of the last two...
I went into my office, saw that there was a Safari update and decided to let it do its thing. When I came back 30 minutes later, my machine was off. I turned my machine back on, got the gray Apple screen with the spinning cog and the progress indicator for the update. A little over 10% through, the progress indicator reset. No biggie, I figured. Second time it got to the same point, it just shut down. Nada. When I restart, it does the same thing.
I've tried resetting PRAM.
I've tried resetting SMC.
I've tried booting in safe mode, but that isn't working at all – just does the same thing as when I (fail to) boot normally.
Everything but one of my screens and my keyboard is disconnected. ****, I even tried booting without either one connected (I just waited to see if it would turn off), and it failed.
Can't think of or find anything else.
Anyone?

Humm.. you'll need to startup from your System Install Disc to test, repair or restore from Time Machine.
Some options for Starting up from your Install Disc include:
1. in an External Optical DVD Drive.
2. from another iMac in Target Disk Mode.
3. from a copy on a Thumb Drive or External HD.
It's to bad that you are using Time Machine on the second HD instead of a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner - Home or SuperDuper! that you could boot from for testing, repairing and/or restoring.
If none of the above helps?
There is one good thing about a Mac Mini, it is much easier to tote into the local Apple Store or AASP than an iMac. see > Apple - Support - iMac - Service FAQ

G4 Sawtooth upgraded to 1.2Ghz Shuts down During Post after Leopard Install

Hey everyone I also have a G4 sawtooth and I attempted to 1st upgrade to Leopard and the machine would boot to the Apple logo and shut down. I checked the HD it was fine I was able to slave it to my MacBook. So I partitioned and Clean Installed Leopard took a while to install and then I transferred all my settings and files over. Worked for one boot and same issue Apple Logo and quick shut down. I think I am gonna image and not transfer settings to see what happens. Anyone have this issue?

Update: I removed all third-party PCI cards and peripherals, and was able to boot from the Leopard DVD. Performed an archive/install, and everything worked properly. Reinstalled/reconnected all the hardware I'd removed, and it all works fine.
So, the moral of the story is:
* Remove all third-party hardware prior to the upgrade
* Perform an archive/install (or an erase/install)--DO NOT simply upgrade!
* Reinstall third-party hardware one item at a time to check compatibility
List of third-party stuff I removed & reinstalled, for the curious:
Sonnet Tango FireWire/USB PCI card
MacWireless 802.11g PCI card
Acon USB PCI card
External FireWire disk
iSight
D-Link DWB-120M USB Bluetooth module
USB-B2K Skype telco adapter
The Sonnet 1GHz CPU upgrade works fine. When I originally purchased it, the 1GHz model was the fastest one that didn't require special firmware, and I figured that was the best way to go. Sure enough, no CPU-related issues with the Leopard upgrade. Now, if I can lay hands on a Radeon 9700 or 9800 Pro graphics card...

Dreamweaver shuts down during launch after transfer

When I try to lauch Dreamweaver, a dialog box pops up saying 65016. I press 'ok', and the program shuts down. (I just transfered my Creative Suite from my old macbook to my new Imac, and the rest of the programs work fine.) Anyone? I've tried Adobes online support chat but they ended up refering me to here.

If you have a valid Serial Key even though you don't have a CD/ DVD drive, you can download a fully functional 30-day trial of CS3 from here:
http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
Read the 'Very Important Instructions' section carefully before attempting to download the trial install files. Note that this website lets you download from adobe.com only. The reason to share this link is because Adobe.com doesn't officially list out previous version downloads any longer.
Once you download the trial from here, use your original serial key to activate your installation.
If you're in no hurry however, wait till you receive your Ext. CD Drive to proceed with your installation!

Mac shuts down during startup after removal AppleSetupDone in Terminal, can I fix this ? 'touch' didn't help.

Hi, first of all thanks for reading, and I apologize for fooling around in Terminal.
I followed a method to remove applesetupdone in terminal, in order to enter the menu to create a new admin account. I had done this before on a computer that was given to me and it had worked very well. This time it didn't, though. I know I used a different website this time, I'm pretty sure the previous one made use of sudo, this one didn't.
I must have done something wrong. Perhaps when I followed a hint that came up inside terminal that told me to load something, because what I wanted was impossible / read only.
In any case my MacMini (1.83 ghz, Snow Leopard) starts up and shows the grey apple logo and the progress 'wheel', then shuts itself down. It does not mount when I connect it to my macbook with firewire. I can still get into sum / terminal but I don't know what to do. I tried 'touch' to restore applesetupdone but it didn't work.
I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance!

Km2m shuts down during boot after running via chipset driver install

Ive recently purchased a new computer with a km2m Combo mobo and am having trouble getting it properly configured and running.
I attempted to run the "One Touch Setup" on the drivers and utilities CD that was supplied with the system. Reeceived a message to first install the VIA Chipset drivers. I ran the chipset driver install and simply clicked NEXT on all the screens accepting the default options. The install appears to complete successfully and restarts the pc.
during restart the pc abruptly powers off!
I can reboot the system in safe mode.
I've run msconfig and disbabled everything and the system still powers of during a normal boot.
If I restore the registy (scanreg /restore) the system again boots properly.
What causes this anomaly and how do I resolve it? Is there some sort of hardware incompatibility? I'm stumped!!!
AMD XP 2400+ 266FSB
OS = Windows Me
PSU = +3.3/28a +5/40a +12/18a -12/1.0a -5/1.0a +5SB/3.0a
what other info is needed?

Yes, problem with the video card sounds plausible! Any not so successful updates recently? It is sometimes to make a good uninstall, which is required to make a good install.
4in1 drivers should - esp. with W98 and ME - be installed while in SafeMode and with all autostarting programs disabled, for example Antivirus and utilities.
Else, since you have a damaged regedit, I would reinstall Windows. You might have done something for example an upgrade or new install the registry, not healthy, has made a note of. Some utilities also overwrite and change system files without good results.

Itunes Shuts Down during/directly after syncing.

The sync is never successful. I try to put some music on my 2nd gen. Ipod Touch and it closes. I get the "Itunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

My profile says windows xp it is really windows vista. I just tried a second generation ipod nano and it synced perfectly so i think there is a problem with my ipod now.

HT1476 Is any one else's iphone 5 now shutting down at 40% after software update

iPhone dying at 40% since software update. As soon as I plug it back it comes back to 40%. It's clearly the software update causing the issue. How can I resolve it

Hello there, richsim68.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting the issue you're describing:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Particularly:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I can only start my iBookG4 after deleting preferences. I have to go into single user mode to do so. If I don't go into single user mode, the computer shuts down during boot up. What might be the problem?

I do not have a startup disk. I did try fsck (based on what I learned from your reply-thank you). This failed (fsck); here is the message:
** Checking catalog file.
Invalid key length
(4, 8198)
** Volume check failed.
/dev/rdisk03 (hfs) EXITED WITH SIGNAL 8.
I am sure this is an easy fix; I just have no clue how.

Re: Restoring windows after sudden shut down during updating

Hi everyone,
Last night I was updating my windows on my Toshiba laptop, however, my laptop had a sudden shut down during the updating process.
Now when I start my laptop, I am prompted that a system error occurred and I have to insert my windows CD to continue. I never got a windows CD, and nor have I made a recovery disc yet, so is there any possible way for me to log into windows again? I am using windows Vista.
Any suggestion would be grateful.
Thanks in advance

hi dDk,
what is the first rules of using a computer?
*never touch a running system* and of course: *read the f... manual* and *make backups often*
ok this was a bit hard... but this is a common failure to make an update without saving....
now lets see what we can do....
- i assume that there is no possibility to start in safe mode...
- hdd recovery is not possible...
- you have neither a systemdisk of vista nor a system backup
now you are in operators hell....
- see a servicepartner and ask for assistance, for a small fee he is able to setup your original system
- get a vista/win7 istallation cd and install it, be aware you loose your hdd backup funktion!
- try to repair with a "system-on-a-disc" like winpe or bartpe
- try to make the hidden recovery partition visible to a os booted from cd and run recovery agent from there
if you killed your recovery partition.... bad luck

N200 shuts down during boot

Dear Lenovo,
I have a problem with my N200 laptop. Notebook shuts down during boot. Sometimes it is immediately after "Lenovo screen", sometimes it is when Vista logo appears. I found out that this is always when notebook is "cold". It does't matter if I want to switch on my notebook or if I want to restore it from hibernation or sleep mode. Next thing is that it always crashes when fan starts work at full tilt (I checked the fan but it is clear). When notebook starts correctly then it works without problems. Usually I have to switch it on about three times then it is OK. This problem takes about 2 weeks. I have my laptop about 7 month. Do you have any ideas how to solve this problem?
And another thing - I forget to send registration card to Lenovo and now I am afraid that I will be without warranty. Can I send it still now?
Thank you for answer and sorry for my English.
Gabi

Yes, problem with the video card sounds plausible! Any not so successful updates recently? It is sometimes to make a good uninstall, which is required to make a good install.
