PLEASE HELP! Unable to render any Quicktime format - after effects error unable to open file (-1610153459)

I just can't render any type of Quicktime file in AE CC 2014. I'm on Windows 8.1.
Even in CS6 was it not possible, but I never really used any Quicktime filetypes.
Normally I just rendered to .h264, but now that's only available via the insane slow Adobe Media Encoder, I want to use the Quicktime -> h.264 option, but it's just not possible.
I also want to render some footage to the Avid DNxHD codec, but this is also not possible.
Doesn't matter what type of footage, dslr footage, pictures, AE solids. Everytime I want to render in a Quicktime file I get this error:
AE error: Rendering error while writing to file (File-Location). Unable to open file. (-1610153459)
Installed the latest Windows version of Quicktime, didn't help...
I saw some topics about this, but they didn't provide a good solution. All they discussed was the hardware of the computer. I have enough space available and render to a NTFS drive.
Please can someone help me with this!

Yes! I just solved my own problem. I still think that the internet doesn't provide an easy to find answer, so I will post this.
I had the latest version of Quicktime, but this version causes the problem. After some searching I finally found a page on the Apple website that confirms this.
Updating to QuickTime 7.4 may cause issues while rendering footage in Adobe After Effects - Apple Support
So I uninstalled my latest version of Quicktime and installed version 7.4.1. Everything works now the way it's supposed to!

  • PLEASE HELP!! Weird screen glitch in After Effects CS5.5?!? (Windows 7)

         I was editing some videos in the trial of After Effects CS5.5, and I went to render something in full screen (I've been using it for two weeks now, and i've rendered in full screen before) and suddenly a bunch of error messages started popping up,and After Effects closed out. Now every time I open After Effects, its like the screen zooms in: I can't see my taskbar or my tools for after effects, or anything on the edges at all. Production Premiere and everything else works fine, but After Effects is always like this now. I've searched all the help centers, and google, and youtube, and I've found nothing. I also tried unistalling and reinstalling the Master Collection trial but it still came up in full screen.
    PLEASE HELP I only have 12 days left on trial and I'm trying to finish one last video.

    Try deleting your preferences. If that doesn't do it, Reboot, Use the Adobe Cleaner Tool, then re-install AE. If that doesn't work let us know. It's probably your preferences.

  • Help:  unable to open files created with ZipOutputStream

    I am seeing some weird behavior with ZipOutputStream, using JDK 1.3.1_01 on Win2K. The code that follows is a snippet from a servlet that delivers a ZIP archive of a set an entire directory tree. I was preparing to roll it into production, but one of my testers noticed a bug that I didn't see.
    It seems that her version of WinZip (6.x) was unable to properly extract the files from the archive while mine (8.0) had no problems. I then tried a couple of other programs, and I've been able to reproduce the behavior with the built-in viewer in Lotus Notes 5 (the only other utility I had handy).
    I've made sure to call closeEntry() on each ZipEntry, and to call finish() before close() on the ZipOutputStream itself. Has anyone seen this behavior besides me?
    Thanks and regards,
    Casey
    protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
    throws ServletException, java.io.IOException {
        response.setContentType("application/zip");
        response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=\"package.zip\"");
        File dir = new File(m_templateDir);
        ZipOutputStream out = new ZipOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
        addFilesToPackage(dir, "", out);
        out.finish();
        out.close();
    // Recursively walks the directory, adds files to the output stream,
    // and calls itself to handle sub-directories
    private void addFilesToPackage(File dir, String pathPrefix, ZipOutputStream out)
    throws IOException {
        File[] list = dir.listFiles();
        for (int k=0; k<list.length; k++) {
            File f = list[k];
            if (f.isDirectory()) {
                addFilesToPackage(f, pathPrefix + f.getName() + "/", out);
            } else {
                ZipEntry ze = new ZipEntry(pathPrefix + f.getName());
                out.putNextEntry(ze);
                InputStream in new FileInputStream(f);
                byte[] buff = new byte[2056];
                int bytesRead = 0;
                while((bytesRead = in.read(buff)) > -1) {
                    out.write(buff, 0, bytesRead);
                out.closeEntry();
                in.close();
    }

    I had also a problem with W2K when using ZipInputStream, I could not to solve it.
    so I used Unpacked Streams.
    weird indeed.
    Sometimes it works just fine.
    FileInputStream fis;
    byte [] in;
    //ZipFile zf = new ZipFile(new File("data/products.zip"));
    //ZipEntry ze = zf.getEntry("products.wsl");
    //fis =new BufferedInputStream( zf.getInputStrea(ze));
    fis = new FileInputStream("data/products.wsl");
    koko = fis.available();
    in = new byte[koko];
    fis.read(in);
    fis.close();
    I think code was something like abowe (there has been a while...)

  • Please Help! How do i make MS OFFICE the default programs for opening files

    Hey,
    Someone please tell me how to make MS OFFICE the default for opening up excel, word and pp files....Ever since i migrated all my stuff to my new 24in everything opens up in iwork instead of office, which is really annoying.
    Thanks in advance,
    JW

    Hi skymedic: Quite easy to set the default program actually. Find a file you need to open, single click. then Right Click and select "Get Info". When this window opens, select the program to be used then click "Change All'. Please note you will need to do this for all file types you want to open with Office. EG: .DOC .PPS .PPT .XLS etc..
    Good Luck

  • Please Help!!! After Effects has stopped importing .m2t files!!!

    Hi there,
    I have run into a realtively urgent problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with. I am making a video in after effects cs4 for a client using footage captured in HDV split that show as .m2t files. I have edited with these files in after effect before, but now all of a sudden when I go to file -> import and select the file I get an immediate "After Effects error: Can't import file" ....."unsupported filetype of extension".
    I also noticed it wouldn't let me import .mpg files however .mov files import no problem.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    Thanks!! That fixed the problem. I'm not sure why when I searched for updates in after effects it didn't find anything.
    Thankfully there are helpful people on adobe forums

    After the restore did the phone work properly for a while? Say, a day or so?
    If so it is possible you have an app that doesn't let go of memory properly. I reboot my iPhone ( hold sleep/wake and hole till you see the apple logo) every few days. This resets the memory. The iPhone OS has doesn't seem to mange memory very well yet. So a reboot will help with that. I have had my phone almost slow to a stop before I started rebooting. Always reboot after installing a new app. Also do you close all pages in Safari when you are done? This is a good practice. Safari will run in the background and use processor time and drain your battery quicker. Create a new blank page then close all others when you are done browsing for a while. I have also found that certain web site that have animated images like weather maps will turn the phone into molasses. As soon as i close that page it gets faster.
    If all of the above have no effect then as Tamara said it is time for a trip to the Genius bar.
    Good luck

  • HELP - Partition Error Unable to open file (c:\TEMP\ESS00001.tmp)

    While tryint to create a partion that we have in 5.02p14 to 6.2.1, I receive the error during validation. any ideas?Unable to open file (c:\temp\ess00001.tmp).When I go to c:\temp directory, I can see the files but they are empty.Please Help.Thanks, Paul J.

    we've gotten this message in essbase 5.02 patch 13 when updating the partitions if there was an error when saving. i think it happens because essbase only partially updated the partition definition file so when you try to save it again, it looks for the temp file. the best way i found to fix this is to delete the .ddb (not .dbb) file from both source and target databases. this will delete any partition you already have existing on the database though.

  • Unsolved: unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document

    I'm trying to open a presentation I made some time ago, it is a .key file I used to open without any problems. Now the message appears:
    "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document".
    I tried the solution described here, but it didn'd work: i change extension to .zip, unzip it and there is no index file. There are only pictures from the presentation in .tiff
    I also sent the file to my friends and they had the same problem opening it. It's very strange, I've successfully opened it before. And the problem is only with THIS file!
    Please help me out!

    Have you tried to create a new Keynote Presentation? Do you have another previously saved Keynote file you can try to open? These will make sure it is a problem with this specific presentation and not the whole program.
    Try to delete the Keynote Preferences. They are located in the folder Macintosh HD>Users>your username>Library>Preferences and titled com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist.
    Your profile shows that you are still on Mc OS 10.6.6, is that true? You might try to update to 10.6.7 as I believe that there was a font issue fixed in this update (I don't know for sure since I am still on 10.5.8).
    Try those and report back and we will see what we can come up with.

  • URGENT - Error "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document" - and there is no index file (so the usually suggested solution doesn't work)

    Hi there,
    As you see in the heading, I am getting the error "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document". There has been a number of threads on this and there seems to be a usual work around that works in many cases, by changing the file extension to .zip and then looking for the index file and making some more extension changes...unfortunately, in my case (and it also happened to others), there is no index file, so the usually suggested solution doesn't work...Can someone please help? I am working on a tight deadline and would like to try and recover the file.
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Best,
    Just a regular apple user
    PS: any other presentation opens fine in Keynote (09)

  • After Effects error: Unable to allocate space for image buffer

    I am having some glitchy issues with After Effects, very inconsistent, but I am getting the error message "After Effects error: unable to Allocate Space for a 7500 x 4500 image buffer. You may be experiencing fragmentation. In the Memory and Multiprocessing Preference dialog box, trying increasing the RAM to leave for other applications, and selecting the Enable Disk Cache option in the Media & Disk Cache Panel".
    Pretty straightforward, but I have a brand new 8 core dual 2.25 Mac Pro with 16GB Ram. I have it set to allow other applications to use 7GB, have jockeyed that setting between 1GB and 5GB and still gotten the same error message. Disk Cache is set to 3GB, have pushed it all the up to 7GB and still gotten the same message. I am working in 1080p, but I got the error message with Open GL on, quarter resolution, and wasn't even trying to RAM preview. I also noticed that with a straight 1080p clip .mov animation codec clip, after effects will only RAM preview about 7 seconds. That is without any other layers or effects.  I do not have all of my source footage in one folder, I am going to try that next. I am running of a fast internal hard drive that is not they system drive.  It also seems like it happens after I have been using the comptuer for awhile. If I restart the problem will usually go away for a little while.
    I think that I may have a bigger system error, the computer locked up bad once after I had it for a few weeks and since that happened CS4 has been unstable in general, especially Photoshop and Bridge. My guess is bad RAM, but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something with my AE settings.  If any one has any input please let me know. Thanks.

    > I lowered the minimum RAM per core to 1GB, because the Adobe site recommends that as a base setting for andHD project
    When you say "the Adobe site recommends", what exactly are you referring to? If you're quoting recommendations written for After Effects on the Adobe website, you're very likely quoting me. And this is what I wrote in the Help document:
    "Memory & Multiprocessing preferences":
    "The amount of RAM required for each background process varies depending on your system configuration; at least 1 GB per process is recommended. Optimum performance is achieved with computer systems with at least 2 GB of installed RAM per processor core."
    This blog post gives essentially the same advice, but with more explicit suggestions.
    But, as I say at the bottom of that blog post, if you find that some other settings are working better for you, that's great. Every project and computer system are different. Do what works for you.
    > Also, if it is an
    dual quad core system, there should be 8 cores, but in the
    multi-processer preferences panel it lists CPU's as 16.
    The number of "virtual" processors can be double in a system that uses hyperthreading. After Effects doesn't actually treat these as separate processors in this context, though.
