RANT: cloud re-install    ("strange situation")

I have been using Photoshop since 1992 and After Effects since 1994...
The cloud is driving me crazy (apart from issues with local storage that has gone to the cloud and added other issues to our processes)...
I have the  ("strange situation") modal dialogue on an After Effects CC2014 file (just "love" the naming convention) after trying to import a Premier CC2014 sequence.
I hoped that the Adobe Creative Cloud Console displayed an update with a fix for this.
When I open Adobe Creative Cloud it displays an [INSTALL] button next to ALL my already installed CC2014 versions
Clicking on the INSTALL next to PhotoshopCC2014 starts the slow 1.xxxGB download of the full Photoshop from scratch.
With the CC role-out I did manually download the installs to not have to download 8GB of installs on multiple workstations - when the CC2014 role-out came it was not clear if this was a complete new version (since Adobe had decided to re-invent naming conventions or think Autodesk has done a good job on it) or an update, so I did not download the installs to a location I have control over.
Any way - in about 4 hours from now I will hopefully know if this fixes the CC2014 issue
In the mean time I will just go back to a pre-CC version of Premier and After Effects that I actually have ownership over and not simply renting....

FIX FOR "strange situation" on Premiere CC2014 import to After Effects CC2014:
1. Create new Premiere CC2014 file
2. Import just the Sequence from the old Premiere Project File you want to transfer to AE: in Premiere CC2014: MENU > FILE > IMPORT > PremierProject_v01.prproj
3. Now import the new Premiere Project file into After Effects: in After Effects CC2014: MENU > FILE > IMPORT > Adobe Premiere Pro Project... > PremierProject_v02.prproj
It now works for me
There is no effects or additional graphics in the first file that could have caused the problem.
FIX FOR INSTALL instead of UPDATE showing next to my WORKING copies of CC2014:
I do not know - a restart did not help. Although I can use all the CC2014 software (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, Premiere, etc...) I still see the INSTALL button instead of the UPDATE button.
At some stage I will have to press that INSTALL button, most likely when I leave the office tonight.

  • After Effects error: strange situation [0/-939524096]  ( 26 ::139 ) help!

    I am editing footage from a Nikon D7000 in Premiere. I select all and replace with after effects composition. Aftere effects opens and gives this error message. I am on a windows based machine.

    Thanks for you responses. This is a short sequence with about 20 clips. I have in the past used this workflow successfully on short sequences. I like to assemble in pp and then apply colour correction/colour grading, and some sharpening in after effects. This problem has occured since I went from AE 5.5 to AE creative cloud. It was my intention to contrast and colour correct each individual clip as needed, then using an adjustment layer over the entire sequence to apply a colour grading. As an enthusiastic beginner, If there is a better way to accomplish this Id love to hear it.

    We don't know what Apple plans on doing to change this (and it may not be just Apple but more likely the publishers, since Apple would, of course, do whatever it could to maximize sales/profits).  Right now you can only read Apple books on mobile devices. Sure, buy them from Amazon if you want to read them on the computer. We don't work for Apple so we're pretty impartial on this kind of advice.
    You might also see what your library can offer.  My wife can browse the county library from her iPhone, borrow e-versions, and read books on it too.  Free!

    Hi Arno ten Hagen,
    To check for activation you need to go to all the machines in which you have installed CC apps, launch any of the CC software, go to help and you will see the email address mentioned by which you are logged in to that machine.

    Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and rename to OOBE.old .

  • Cc 18 cloud version installed(windows), old files in cc17 crashes....help

    cc 18 cloud version installed(windows) old files cc17 crashes......help

    Crash,
    There can be a number of reasons for crashing.
    To overcome a possible file corruption, you may try to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
    Here are some websites where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,

    http://www.illustrator.fixtoolbox.com/
    As far as I remember, the first one is for Win and the one is for Mac, while the third one should be for both.
    Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

    To overcome a possible CC18 corruption, you may look at the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Why do i not see premier pro as an app option after the cloud is installed?

    the cloud was installed and premiere does not show up as an video app option  for install. Why?

    Usually, if an pplication is not display/listed it is because the machine involved is not compatible with it.  Check the Premiere tech specs and see if the machine comes up short.

  • Creative Cloud: Problems installing Photoshop CS6

    I have a license to Creative Cloud but I have problems installing and running Photoshop CS6. When I launch the program it says I can test Photoshop Extended for 30 days but then I need to buy a license. Additional information: 1) I did have Photoshop CS6 beta installed before. Now it is uninstalled (in the correct way from the Control Panel) but still same problem 2) All other Creative Cloud programs install and launch without problems. How do I solve this?

    I tried to follow the advice. I removed all Creative Cloud programs. I
    then cleaned twice using the cleaning options 3: Creative Cloud and
    then 7: CS6. Then re-installed Adobe Application Manager and then
    re-installed Photoshop CS6. Still same problem.
    I have NOT yet tried to un-installed my old CS 5.5 Design Standard
    package.I have also not un-installed my Lightroom 4. Is it necessary
    also to remove those programs?
    Kind regards

  • AE CS5 Crashing with Zero Denominator & Strange Situation errors

    Good afternoon!
    In AE CS5 for OSX, we've started observing a strange behavior:
    - I have an AE project w/ footage loaded, including a Quicktime movie rendered out of another app (e.g., a 3D app)
    - I need a change to the movie, so I re-render it from the 3D app, replacing the existing movie.
    - In AE, I get impatient and click Reload Footage while the movie is still being re-rendered.
    In past versions of AE, I got an error (unrecognized file type) but AE continued to operate.  With CS5, I get a series of errors:
    "may be an unsupported format" (expected)
    "zero denominator in ratio addition"
    "zero denominator comparing ratios"
    "zero denominator converting ratio denominators"
    "After Effects Error: Strange Situation"
    Even after the movie finishes rendering, I keep getting the errors and clicking OK keeps presenting errors.  Have to force-quit AE to get on with my day.
    Is this a bug?  New in CS5?  I understand that I'm trying to do something "wrong" by loading a piece of footage that's invalid, but shouldn't I just get a polite "that piece of footage is no good", the ol' test-pattern, and be able to keep working and come back to it when it's ready?
    Anyone else run into this?
    --Rob

    but shouldn't I just get a polite "that piece of footage is no good", the ol' test-pattern, and be able to keep working and come back to it when it's ready?
    In theory yes, but as I just explained in another thread, 64bit AE vs. ye olde QT is full of workarounds and limitations due to Apple not seeming to care at all. That and the differences in 64bit file access on a more general level may lead AE to wrong conclusions. I'm sure it's a bug of sorts plus perhaps your 3D app (Cinema 4D?) could also do better by closing and re-opening the file from time to time so at least some parts are accessible instead of keeping it permanently open. For the time being, simply use image sequences...

  • I can't find after effects on Creative Cloud to install ??

    Hello,
    I can't find after effects on Creative Cloud to install ??
    no after effects , no premiere ,, can u please advice ..

    JayneMarie I think your computer now has a 32 bit OS and since the CS5 version, Premiere Pro is not meant to work in a 32 bit environment.
    Please check your OS details and make sure you have a 64-bit OS installed. If it isn't a 64-bit OS, you will need to reinstall the OS.
    Thanks,
    Rameez
