Problem opening After Effects

I just downloaded CS6 Master Collection on my new mac. When I want to open After Effects I get this message: "After Effects warning: there are multiple copies og plug-in effects "3D Camera Tracker" on your drive. To avoid problems, quit After Effects and move or delete the older or uneeded version(s)".
If I click OK, it continues with all the plug-in effects, and I have to force clising to get it away.
I don´t have any older version, so what shall I do?

This has nothing to do with an "older version". The camera tracker was only introduced in CS6. Check the relevant program and MediaCore folders for duplicates that may have been introduced by a busted install or whatever.
Important Directories
In case of doubt run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, delete the Adobe folders entirely and reinstall with a clean slate.

You got what you asked for - restoring backups/ migrating never works. Run the Cleaner Tool and reinstall properly.

Problems with After Effects/Premiere CS3 in Vista

I have read through a bundle of solutions to this problem and haven't found anything that has worked yet. I ran After Effects and Premiere Pro on Vista up until two days ago when it refused to open. When I try to open Premiere, it gives the message "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attemp to save your current project." When I tryo to open After Effects, the firts try does nothing. The second attempt will open After Effects, but all interfaces are missing and all the dropdown menus are grayed out. When I close it, it says After Effects has crashed, contact support, error 0:42. I have uninstalled/deactivated and reinstalled, run codec sniper, removed xmi preference settings and nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Did you run the CS3 Clean Script? If not, please do so before attempting any reinstalls. More info on such stuff here and here.

Error Opening After Effects CS3 - cannot load AERes1.dll

Hello,
When I try to open After effects I get this Error "cannot load AERes1.DLL"
I tried to reinstall after effects and it didnt dfix the problem.
I uninstalled the entire Master collection CS3 and reinstalled and the problem didnt solve.
I could open After Effects in the past.
Any suggestions?

OK so this is how I solved the problem if anyone encounter it ever again...
Uninstalling and reinstalling the CS3 won't help.
The problem happens probably because of quicktime installed prior to the CS3 updates. I didnt try to remove quicktime. I formatted my PC and luckly I had an image of my c: drive from the time I installed the cs3 and prior to the time I installed Quicktime. So I made all Adobe Cs3 updates first and only than installed Quicktime.
Now After Effects works.
If anyone finds a way to solve this without formatting c: drive, let me know.

Slow computer on opening After Effects CC

Hello everyone,
For about several months now I have a problem with my computer. Whenever I open a project in Premiere Pro, Photoshop, etc. my computer does well. When I open After Effects everything is fine too, but at the moment when I open a project within AE, my computer starts to make noise (hard disks), and is suddenly slower. Now such a project can even be, just one title in a comp. It doesn't even have to be a big project.
After I close After Effects, my computer is still slow for several minutes (~10 min.). I realize that in Premiere Pro. Playback doesn't go as smooth anymore, PPro and other applications freeze for several seconds somethimes, etc.
Since my computer is only for work, it would surprice me if I have malware, spyware or virusses. I have done a scan and a defrag, but that didn't helped.
This is my technical information:
Windows 7 64bit
Internal RAID5 (WD Caviar Black 7200 RPM) where I store all my project and work files on.
SSD M4 for my OS where I have Adobe CC installed on.
CPU: i7 3930K
GPU: GTX580
Memory: Crucial 32GB - DDR3 1.35v 1600Mhz
Adobe CC, on the latest update.
This computer is exactly one year old now.
Now my question to the community is, if this is a comon problem? If this could be a bug within After Effects? (I have tried a reïnstall) Or are there any tools to scan/clean for such a problem?
Thanks in advance,
Jordy

There was an After Effects-specific issue with odd slowness that others have reported. That is going to be fixed in the update that's coming in a couple of weeks (mid-October was the promised date). Hopefully that issue is the same as yours and the coming update solves it for you too.

Unexpected Error message appears every time I try to open After Effects.

A message saying Unexpected Error appears every time I try to open After Effects. I can't use the application as a result.
ANY IDEAS?????

Okay, I'm using After Effects CS4. I am on a Mac OSX 10.7.3
The message "Unepected Error" appears and is then followed by another window which says "After Effects can't continue: unexpected failure during application set up."
This all began when I was working on a project and left it for about an hour. When I came back to my computer AE had crashed and these are the messages I get when I try to re-start it.
I've recently switched computers and transfered all the software from the old one to this new one.
I used to have this same problem when I used AE on my old mac but deleted some files, I think 'Preferences', from the AE folder in Applications and this sorted the problem out.
'Preferences' don't appear in the AE folder on my new Mac.

Can not open After effects by System 10.9

Kann After Effect nicht starten. Habe die aktuelle Version auf dem Mac
can not open After Effect. But i have the right Version on Mac

12.0 ist nicht aktuell. 12.1 oder 12.2 schon eher. Das sind die üblichen Probleme mit Mavericks und insbesondere 12.1 hat schon etliche davon beseitigt... Also einfach mal die Updates installieren.

It is as Mylenium says.
See this page for details such as this:
"You open the version of CINEMA 4D that is installed with After Effects using the New > MAXON CINEMA 4D File command or the Edit Original command in After Effects. You will not see this version of CINEMA 4D installed in the Start menu on Windows or in the Applications directory on Mac OS."
