Quicktime 7.6.4 crashes After Effects

Quicktime 7.6.4 crashes After Effects i have to back date to quicktime 7.5.5 for it to work. this is not ideal as my itunes does not work now.
so the question is this: is anyone else having this problem and did they resolve it?

I have AE and I have no problems using Qt 7.6.4. Your the first I've seen in this forum to have problems with AE and Quicktime 7.6.4.

My Script Crashes After Effects - Blitpipe Error

Hi,
I have written a script for After Effects that opens a Dialog Window. It works fine the first time, but when I try a second time, it crashes with the following error. There's a lot going on with the script, so I'm not sure which part of the script is crashing After Effects. Does this error message give any indication of what it could be?
One other detail - it doesn't happen with my PC, but it is happening on my Mac.
Thank you.

Hi, can`t tell you without script example.

Element 3D is crashing After Effects?

Hello everybody!
I recently purchased Video Co-Pilot's plugin for Adobe After Effects, Element 3D, but much to my amiss, it does not work. The first time I tried to open the scene setup, it said, "Element 3D has encountered an unrecoverable error."
I closed After Effects, and opened it back in hopes of trying again. But this time, when I apply Element 3D to a solid, it tells me "After Effects has stopped working" and I am forced to close the program.
Nothing has changed yet, every time I try to add Element 3D to a solid it crashes After Effects. I updated my graphics driver, re-installed Element 3D, everything I can think of, but to no avail.
If anyone could offer some speculance as to what's happening, that would be amazing.
My system specs:
Acer Aspire 5349
2 GB RAM
250 GB HDD
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
DirectX 11
Intel HD Graphics

Thank you so much for responding!
After Effects actually runs very well on my PC, considering I do have the minimum requirements. I am able to run Optical Flares, as well as Trapcode Particular perfectly.
I'm fairly young, so I apologize, but how can I update my graphics card to meet Element 3D's requirements?
Thank you all for you help.
My Graphics specs. Not sure if this will help, but I thought I'd post anyway.

Numbers effect keeps crashing After Effects CC

hey guys
i can't seem to be able to apply the numbers effect without it crashing after effects, has anyone else has this problem?
thanks

We beleive that we've isolated the problem.
I'll post more detailed workaround instructions if necessary, but for now, if you are totally blocked by this, try these steps:
Open your Font Book Application
Click on All Fonts
Look in the Font column for any fonts that have accent characters in their name.
Remove them.
That should resolve the problem.
The one we have identified so far is the font Arrière Garde, but there are certainly others.
And note that it's how the font name appears in Font Book that matters, not the font filename itself.
Let us know if this resolves the issue for you.

Animation Render Settings crash After Effects

Hello all,
We have a strange issue on one of our Mac Pros running After Effects (CS5). Whenever it renders with the Animation render settings, it beach balls and eventually freezes, unless you log out of the user and log back in (in rare occasions, it can only be fixed by restarting). However, when it crashes in this manner it takes forever (10+ minutes)to get back up and running. This is the only time it takes a while to turn on or log in.
However, if we change the render settings to say h.274, everything works fine. I don't think it is because it is running out of resources as the Mac has 32 GB of RAM and the file we were testing on wasn't large (< 1 GB). We've tried rendering it on the network or locally on the machine, but it will freeze either way. It is an issue that is limited to this Mac Pro, so I don't think it is just a bug in the software, considering how it isn't random at all and other machines with the exact same set up have no issue. Normally, I would say we would need to update or reinstall a codec if it were third party, but considering Animation is native to Adobe, I don't think that it is that simple to fix.
What do you guys think? Do you think we need to reinstall After Effects?

That's not actually true. It's native to QuickTime, and we just call the QuickTime system to do all of the encoding.
Well, that is good to know.
Also, we have version 10.2 (603.17) of QuickTime.

Importing a Premiere Pro Sequence into After Effects Crashes After Effects

Hello,
I'm on a Quad Core Mac, 2.8GHZ with 6GB of Ram.
I have a Premeire Pro project with varying MOV and MP4 files; from a DSLR and from a Sony EX-1 camera. This project has lots of media, over 3 TBs, and each and every time I try to import it into After Effects-After Effects crashes and does not respond.
Please help.
Thanks

Don't try and do a whole movie in AE. After Effects is for making shots or short sequences. Break up the projects. Organize. 3TB of source materials into AE's Project folder means linking, analyzing, interpreting, and generating previews for enough material to shoot a feature film. Bring in the shots you're working on, not the entire movie. If you need to do an entire movie, break that up to Scenes and make each scene a separate project.
Terabytes of data would also choke Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, Avid, or any other NLE if it was dumped in all at once. The only reason that a NLE can handle that much data is that there were some caches created when the footage was imported.

Quicktime not found in Camtasia, After Effects...

Big problem here.
Quicktime player installed (version 7.6.4).
When I open it and play mov-files there are no problems at all.
But when I need access to quicktime via other programmes (such as Camtasia or After Effects) I get Error messages or the programmes tell me that Quicktime is not installed. So, for instance, it's not possible to export an After Effects project as mov file. Very bad.
I tried different possibilities mentioned in this forum (reinstall, clean registry, etc...) but nothing helped, which is very annoying.
Hope that some of the experts here are able to provide a solution for the problem. Thanks a lot.

PS imports to AE crash after effects. CS6

Hi, this is a serious problem that need to be fixed fast as I'am on a tight deadline. I have an image that needs to be in its respective layers so when I import a PS i can set it to composite and I get my layer image right. Well everytime I do that, with out fail after effects crashes. I dont have the file open anywhere else so it can't be becuase the file is already in use.
Please help.
Thanks
George Allen

Open up you PSD file in Photoshop and make sure that the color space is RGB then save it under a different name. Make sure Optimize Compatibility is on. Sometimes that will fix a problematic file.
Try importing as a comp again. If that fails, post a screenshot of the file in Photoshop showing the layers and layer groups expanded. Maybe there's a goofy smart object in the PSD that's not compatible or maybe you have a smart filter applied that won't work in AE.
You could also tell us how you're trying to import the file. Editable layer styles???
You could also try importing the file with the Caps Lock key pressed.

Vector Art Crashes After Effects CS3 Windows 7

Hi there,
I've noticed that AFX CS3 always crashes when I try to use Vector Art effects on Windows 7. I'm able to turn on the effect, but when I start painting, it always crashes after a few seconds. Any idea how to prevent this crash? I love vector art.
thanks..

Solved this problem on my computer by running After Effects in compatibility mode.
My setup is different than the original post, but hopefully it will help someone else.
Here's my problem and how I fixed it...
System: Windows Vista
After Effects CS4
Vector Paint
After drawing a a third small line, AfterFX would lock up and the screen would go semi transparent. Turning Open GL settings didn't help.
Closed AfterFX, and righ-clicked on the After Effects shortcut. Chose Properties->Shortcut tab->Compatibility->Checked "Run this program in compatibily mode for "Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
All other settings left unchecked.
Hit OK.
Relaunch AfterFX and the Vector Paint effect works great now!

Quicktime compatibility issue with Adobe After Effects

Hi,
When opening Adobe After Effects CC, a warning pops up: " Quicktime is not installed on this system, some components will not work correctly. "
But an older (trial) version of CS6 is also running on the same system...
2013 Mac Pro
3 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon E5
32 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
OSX 10.9.4
...and it exports QT correctly! I have installed both: Quicktime Player 7 Pro (7.6.6) and Quicktime Player 10.3. Firewall is disabled and I don't use other Quicktime components.
I found several threads on this topic like: http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2011/02/troubleshooting-quicktime-errors-wit h-after-effects.html
and...
http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/08/solutions-for-problems-with-quicktim e-files-in-after-effects-cc-12-0-because-of-conflict-with-dvcprohdvideoout-quick time-component.html
... But none of the above proposed solutions seem to work. That's why I am trying my luck here.
Thanks in advance!

Okay, the issue is supposed to be resolved by following these instructions: http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2014/06/permissions-mac-os-start-adobe-appli cations.html
The blogpost describes exactly what is going on with After Effects CC.
It says: "Set the entire Adobe preferences folder and its contents to be read/write, not just read-only."
However this folder:
Mac OS: [drive]/Users/[user_name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe/
...seems to be in a different spot on my mac;
Mac OS: [drive]/Library/Preferences/
Or is it the wrong folder? It contains many .plist files amongst which com.adobe... preferences, so I am guessing it's the right one. There is no Library folder in the Users/[user_name] folder anyway.
But changing the "read only" into "read/write" doesn't seem to get me anywhere. Having done so, the same notification remains: "Quicktime is not installed on this system..."
Just a direction; no solution yet. Or am I missing something?

Track Camera: Crashing After Effects

Whenever i use track camera, it would go to solving camera and then crash. i have uninstalled and reinstalled after effects many times and still receive the same thing. Any help?

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like comp settings, footage used and ultimately what version of AE and what track settings.

Color Finesse 2.1 crashes After Effects every time I open it

I've downloaded the latest version 2.1.12, and am using an HD720p clip in After Effects CS4 on a MacPro.
Anyone know what I can do?

I've been researching older bug reports for Color Finesse 2.1 and can't find anything that applies to your situation. Version 2.1.12 has fixes for some bugs that give similar symptoms, but you're already running that.
One thing to check is to make sure that you don't have a mix of versions of Color Finesse. Make sure that when you run the 2.1.12 installer that you manually point the installer to the After Effects Plug-ins folder. It won't find it automatically, and with CF 2.1 that can give you a mismatch between the plug-in and the UI app. That shouldn't crash, but it also won't work right.
Also, if you can send us the crash reports we can analyze those and see what we can figure out. Send them to support "at" synthetic-ap "dot" com.

Premiere CC exports crash, media encoder CC crashes, after effects cs6 to cc modify composition

Hi,
we are working in a project formed by many episodes of 1 hour each episode.
We have also many clips that come to premiere from after effects throught dynamic link (masks that hide unwanted elements, this kind of things).
The point is that we decided to update to cc from cs6, and the hell's been unleashed...
We have converted premiere projects cs6 to CC, as well as each premiere project file, and in many clips that came from after effects the work has been alterated, we see fly's that we got hide, some other clips the image is totally distorted by something that before was a mask...many of the work is ruined...and it's not easy to detect because sometimes are little parts of image. It's like somebody's been playing with our compositions...if we reopen the cs6 version just before converting to cc everything's fine, after it's chaos... the problem is that we return to cs6 we will lose a month and could be critical...
When whe export in differents formats, (720p, 1080i, .mov, mpeg2, mpeg4, blu ray...) we have success 1 time each 10 (normally it get's stuck in a image or it pops up an error message of premiere), and if it succeed exporting, the export has strange artifacts like green or purple parts of the image that we cannot see in the timeline, and that disappear if we export only the affected part of the timeline...
None of this things happened before with cs6, somebody has the same problem? is there a solution? We are really disappointed with CC, it's very unpleasant to start to see flyes ant stuff that we had hided, especially because the changes are not evident and hard to detect.
Help!
Our computer:
Processor 2 x 3.06 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 32 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics NVIDIA Quadro K5000 4096 MB / BlackMagic Decklink Studio 2
Software OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)
everything up to date, we formatted and updated last week and nothing changes

Hello Jim,
Thank you for your answer.

Quicktime Pro for Windows crashes after flattening file

I'm running QuickTime Pro 7.7.1 for Windows. A few weeks ago, I opened an M4V file, cut out some segments, and invoked "Save As" a quicktime .MOV file. Given the option to save as a "reference" movie or a "self contained" movie, I chose "reference" movie. Said "reference" movie plays exactly as I intended, as long as the original M4V file is present. Today I wanted to eliminate that requirement, so I opened the reference movie and saved it again to a new .MOV file, this time choosing the "self contained" option. A "flattening movie" dialog appeared, and when it got to 100%, Quicktime crashed!
I tried the same experiment, one running Windows XP Pro and one running Windows 7 Pro, and got the same result each time. What can I do now?

I haven't [yet] tried it with other M4V files, but I will and get back to you.
BTW, after it crashed, I restarted QuickTime and opened the newly-created "self contained" movie and it seemed to play OK, So despite the inconvenience of having to restart, the crash didn't seem to affect the end product of my work.
