Nvidia CUDA driver update fixes crashes for After Effects and other applications

We are seeing reports that the CUDA 5.5.47 driver update released today addresses the crashing problems introduced by the CUDA 5.5.43 driver update.
So, if you have an Nvidia GPU, please update your drivers to use the most recent version of the CUDA driver.
On Mac OS, you can update your version of the CUDA driver from the CUDA panel, available from the Mac OS System Preferences. For CUDA downloads, see the Nvidia website.
Also, make sure that you have installed the most recent updates for your Adobe video applications.

I actually had a very negative thing happen to me when I updated CUDA to 5.5.47, it broke my computer! Here's what happened and how you might put a band-aid on it for the time being....
Specs:
MacPro (Mid 2010)
Mavericks 10.9.2
ATI Radieon HD 5770 1024 MB
1) I went to System Preferences > CUDA > Update and ran the updated for 5.5.47
2) After the update was successful, I launched Adobe Prelude CC and it crashed immediately. Then I launched Adobe Premiere CC, crashed on startup.
3) I restarted my computer
4) Tried launching Adobe Prelude CC again, crashed.
5) Restarted my computer in Single User Mode, Ran a File System Check, shows that the Mac HD Appeared to Be "Okay"
6) Rebooted and went to System Preferences > CUDA, it shows that I had 5.5.47 but that a UPDATE WAS REQUIRED, the problem was that it didn't have an update button
7) I went to the CUDA update website and found the 5.5.47 update for Mac, ran it and it appeared to install successfully, but the applications still crashed and the preference pane for CUDA still showed that an update was required.
8) I called Apple, they suggested re-installing Mavericks, so I did. Still the apps crashed and CUDA showed 5.5.47 with an update still being required
9) I searched for CUDA and found that it was in HD > Library > Frameworks
10) I moved the CUDA Framework file to my Desktop to make a copy and to remove it from the Frameworks folder
11) Launched Adobe Prelude CC and Adobe Premiere CC and they worked fine.
I know CUDA does some wonderful things when it works, so if anyone has any suggestions on how to re-install and it get it working again, please let me know.

    It should be added that only Macs and Quadros need the CUDA driver.  That is not required for use with GeForce cards on Windows.

  • Support for nvidia gtx-980 for after effects and premiere

    Can someone tell me when Adobe is going to give CUDA support for the Nvidia gtx-980 video cards in After Effects and Premiere CS6?  I purchased this card specifically for those programs, and DON'T want to do a subscription to Creative Cloud.  I purchased the Master Collection through Adobe, and understand that CC versions support it.  Why can't Adobe issue a btch file or update to include these cards.  I am aware of OpenGl support, but I would like to add my new card.  I also just purchased an i7-4790K to upgrade from i5-3570 to help speed up rendering, but would really like to see the video card supported.

    The simple answer is no.

  • MacBook Pro 13 inch (mid 2012) v MacBook Pro 15 inch (mid 2014) for After Effects and Premiere

    Hi everyone,
    I'm interested in working with After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 probably creating quite heavily layered files and experimenting with and combining effects. (I also work with Photoshop and Illustrator.)
    My workplace allows me to use a 2.5 GHz Intel Dual Core i5 / MacBook Pro 13 inch (mid 2012, non retina) with hard disk and integrated graphics card (Intel HD Graphics 4000 512MB). I understand this Mac can be maxed out at 16GB of RAM. (Official Apple specs I realise say 8GB RAM is the max for this computer but I've looked into this thoroughly and have confirmed that 16GB is in fact possible.)
    I'm considering purchasing one of the new Haswell based MacBook Pro (mid 2014) models for myself.
    If I do, I'll get the retina 15 inch / Intel Quad Core i7 / 16GB RAM / Intel Iris Pro Graphics / NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M / 1TB Flash Storage.
    I realise there is a big difference between these two machines in terms of their specs - the 15 inch with the dedicated GPU will be far more suited to motion graphics work than the lower spec machine with integrated graphics card.
    Currently, my understanding is that After Effects CS6 and Premiere CS6 do not support the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M but from research on the net I believe it's possible to add this video card to the list of supported cards within the respective applications, forcing them to recognise and use it.
    Having read about the upcoming Broadwell chip, which I think may be capable of supporting 32GB RAM (possibly coming in Q2 2015 from the various websites I've visited) I wonder if it is worth holding off my purchase, and maxing out my older 13 inch laptop in order to run After Effects and Premiere for the time being.
    If I waited for Broadwell based 15 inch MacBooks I think its likely they'll be expandable to 32GB RAM, making the computer a better long term investment.
    eg if Adobe increase minimum/recommended memory requirements for their software in the next few years. While I don't know for sure this will happen, it does seem quite likely at some stage. The 2014 15 inch MacBook - while an excellent computer at the moment - could potentially be slightly limited with regard to future Adobe software releases as its max RAM is 16GB.
    I realise I could potentially look at a high end iMac if memory is a concern, but I prefer the portability of a laptop so I'm restricting myself to portable options for the moment.
    What I'm wondering is -
    If I install the 13 inch 2.5GHz i5 laptop with 16GB RAM as is possible, how would it perform when running After Effects and Premiere? It currently has 4GB and it very quickly runs out of memory meaning playback of goes very slowly when previewing complex files in the timeline. This necessitates rendering of small test sections of the timeline to see it at the correct frame rate. Would the move from 4GB RAM to 16GB RAM give me a noticeable improvement in this regard? If so then this is tempting as I don't have to pay for it - I think my workplace will cover the cost of extra RAM. And then I can wait till next year to buy my own high end laptop.
    The 15 inch 2.8GHz i7 quad processor has Iris Pro and dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GT750M with 2GB RAM. I would be paying the full cost myself.
    I realise rendering would be faster with this Mac but would I see a noticeable improvement over the maxed out 13 inch laptop when previewing multi layered After Effects and Premiere compositions / sequences within the timeline? I like the idea of being able to preview footage in real time as I'm editing as it saves time and I think it makes the process easier generally.
    Any thoughts welcome and thanks very much in advance for your time and advice.
    Kind regards,
    John

    "It currently has 4GB and it very quickly runs out of memory meaning playback of goes very slowly when previewing complex files in the timeline."
    "In this case yes, I can most certainly see a performance increase as your machine is still not too old and a RAM increase will help it for sure I just can't tell you by how much.
    I own the same machine as yours (except for mine having 2.9ghz and i7, and 8GB of ram) so I think it's safe to say for me that the RAM increase will help you for sure."
    That statement of mine answers your question you just asked

  • Need a laptop for running After Effects and other video editors

    Alright, I'm looking for a laptop that can run Adobe After Effects, Premiere, and Photoshop smoothly(Mainly After Effects). My current laptop  a $400 HP Compaq is capable of running those programs but not without constant freezing and slowness, specifically in After Effects and Premiere. Ideally it could run Adobe After Effects and Premiere simultaneously without being slow.
    My maximum budget is $1200. I've browsed a good deal myself, but I haven't seen much that has caught my eye. I'm looking for a Windows laptop that also has a monitor that is at least 16". All of these programs are CS5. I'm here because I want to get the most out of my budget as I can, and hopefully people more experienced in Adobe products can help me out.
    Ask any questions you have incase I left anything out.
    Thanks for your time,
    Nathan B

  • Premiere Pro, After Effects and others crash immediately.

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm hoping to get some ideas here as i'm completely stumped, I signed up to the creative cloud about 4 months ago, I use Photoshop a lot which is still running fine, however Premiere Pro and After Effects crash immediately, and will not even make it into the program, I'm running a brand new machine, 16gb ram, windows 7, Geforce GTX 750..  I've included a couple screen grabs to better explain.
    I've tried replacing the ImageRenderer,dll file to no avail, any help appreciated, how and what should I do?  I have tried uninstalling and re installing with no luck.

    I too am running Windows 7 Pro, I also updated the drivers when I was trying to resolve the issue, running GeForce Game Ready Driver that was released not too long ago, however it wasn't working before this was updated.
    It did work at some point, I've had Premiere Pro installed for a few months, originally it ran but I was only testing it then.  I should also note Audition is also not working with the same error, might be an audio issue or something?  As Photoshop works fine and InDesign work fine.

  • Why does Magic Bullet looks crash my After Effects and computer when I open it?

    I don't really know how else to explain. I've tried re-installing both. I don't know what else to do. I'm on After Effects CS5.

    Just updated my display drivers.
    Then un-update them. MBL is, after all, driven by OpenGL and may frown on the slightest variation there. Also inquire with Red Giant Software what driver versions they support.

  • Using After Effects and Other Adobe CC 2014 on 4K Display.

    I am using a new 4K display and I scaled the UI in Windows 7 to 150%, and all my other programs scaled just fine. When I use my adobe programs the UI is extremely small in the 4K resolution, i was able to scale Photoshop CC 2014 up but am having issues scaling up other programs like AE, Pr, and Ai etc. I need help with this because all these programs are unusable at this size the tools, numbers, values etc are all tiny and really hard to see. If anyone is having the same issue or has found a solution please help, thank you!

    Not one that I can share publicly.
    That's not meant as a dodge. We're just at a point right now where it's hard to estimate with confidence, and I don't want to give my best guess publicly and then have it be wrong and have set the wrong expectation.

  • Problems with Tutorials for After Effects CS5

    I just recently downloaded After Effects CS5. I got the whole creative suite from being an IU student. I was watching the video tutorials for After Effects and when discussing importing files they talk about exercise files. I've looked all over and I can't find these files. Does anyone know how I can get them or where they're located? I'm running windows 7.

    Mylenium may be right about which assets the tutorials were referring to, but I have no idea what tutorials you're talking about. We can't know what exercise files you're referring to if you don't telling us what tutorials you're talking about. There are many thousands of tutorials about After Effects, on dozens or hundreds of websites.
    The best people to ask about the location of exercise files are the people who made the specific tutorials.
    Keep in mind that a lot of tutorial makers (like Lynda.com) put some of heir tutorials online for free, and they sell subscriptions to the rest. Part of the subscription benefit is that you get access to the exercise files.

  • "Mocha for After Effects" included when you install Dreamweaver CS5

    During installation of Adobe Master Collection CS5, I deselected everything except for Dreamweaver. After finishing, I had shortcuts for the following:
    Adobe Device Central CS5
    Adobe Dreamweaver CS5
    Mocha for After Effects CS5
    Adobe Help
    (I believe Air is installed as well, but it appears to be required for Adobe Help?)
    How did Mocha for After Effects and Adobe Device Central get installed?

    Device Central and Mocha for After Effects are not main applications (those which are displayed on left side of Options dialog), rather they are termed as Shared Technologies which are used by multiple applications. Adobe Help is anyway installed even when a single application is installed, Device Central is installed as Dreamweaver has dependency on it. Mocha for After Effects should not be installed if Aftre Effects is deselcted, but it gets installed because of one deferred bug in CS5, you can see some unusable folders of Premiere Pro, Encore etc also even when they are not selected.

  • After effects and premiere linked file problems

    Premiere won't open after effects linked files, keeps crashing. (I haven't moved the files)
    When premiere opens all the ae files are offline, I try to re-link them and premiere crashes everytime.
    I have tried importig the ae files into pp without dynamic link, still crashing.
    I am new to premiere from fcp.
    Using imac, 10.7.5, 16gb, i7.

    Are you getting an error message? If not, what is the last thing that the startup screen says?
    It may be a problem with something in the preferences folder being corrupt. Try deleting the entire preferences folder and restarting. See this page for the location of the preferences folder.
    It also may be that you have something running in your admin account that is blocking a port that is needed for internal communication for After Effects and Premiere Pro. See this page for more detail about that possibility.
