Soundtrack Pro Crashes when I try to save Audio File Project

What I'm trying to do seems fairly simple which is why I can't figure out why STP is crashing every time I try to save.
I have some dialogue in Final Cut that I want to run a simple Reduce Noise filter on, so I'm sending that sequence to an STP Multitrack Project, then double clicking it to open the audio file it's referencing. Then I run reduce noise, the filter sounds fine in both the audio file and multitrack projects. Then I try to save, in either project, and STP freezes and I have to force quit.
I've trashed my preferences for both FCP and STP, and repaired disk permissions. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Do I just need to reinstall?

The workaround I used was to just export the whole thing without saving, and then reimport it into FCP. It works for this project, but it doesn't really seem like the RIGHT way that this whole operation should work!

  • After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file.

    After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file. HELP!!!

    Howdy,
    Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
    I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
    You might wish to read:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
    If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
    Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
    Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
    If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
    - You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
    - Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
    - Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
    - Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
    Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • Quicktime Pro crashes when I try to save movies

    I just bought a new macbook pro yesterday. Upgraded from Quicktime 7 with registration key to QTPro for sole purposes of converting my flip camcorder files from AVI to something recognizable in IMOVIE '08 (apple doesn't seem to support AVI???).
    I am now able to open AVI in QTpro, but it crashes when I try to save or save as or anything really.
    Desperately seeking help. Thanks

    Download VLC Media Player & Perian to play your .avi files inconjunction w/QT.

  • Adobe Illustrator (CS5) keeps crashing when I try to save my files

    So in the last few weeks, my adobe illustrator has started acting up and won't save my files unless they are in the folder that the program makes itself. Those are usually files with long names that are a series of numbers and letters. Even if I copy and paste the name into a search, my computer isn't able to locate the folder, which makes it impossible to do any work because it will only save to one place. Has anyone else had this issue and know how to fix it?

    Does this help any? I'm trying to save my files to my desktop (or anywhere locatable for that matter) But it only allows me to save to this file for some reason. Even if I copy and paste the name of the file, it does not appear when I try to find my file outside of AI. When I try to choose a different location, I get the error message below

  • Studio Pro Crashes whenever I try importing AC3 Audio files

    I used the Compressor preset "DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes" on my 8 minute video in order to create a movie to import into Studio Pro. I first selcted "MPEG-2.6Mbps 2 pass" and then "Dolby Digital Professional 2.0." (Shouldn't I only need to select the "MPEG-2.6Mbps 2 pass" to get both video and audio?)
    Anyway, I submit both.
    The m2v video imports into Studio Pro just fine (it's without audio). When I import the associated ac3 file Studio Pro crashes!
    I noticed in one tutorial when you move the "MPEG-2.6Mbps 2 pass" setting to the submit window that two lines appear for submission. One video and one audio. When I do that I only get the video. That's why I thought I might need the Dolby setting. "MPEG-2.6Mbps 2 pass" says "with AIFF audio" but all I get is the que for video.
    Using 4.2 Studio Pro
    OS X 10.6.6 and installed ProKitUpdate7.0.
    Yikes. Help! Ten DVDs due tomorrow!

    The usual steps if an app starts acting weird is to trash preferences, repair permissions and to create a new project with the same files. Has DVDSP been stable up to now? If none of that works, try a new encode in Compressor without making any adjustments to the audio settings,
    BTW, to set up the DVD job in Compressor you do need to select both audio and video. The tutorial you watched probably selected "All" which brings them both into the job pane.
    Since it's such a short movie, you could also try burning a test DVD directly from Compressor. The easiest way is to use the batch template.
    If your DVD doesn't need more than a simple menu, bypassing DVDSP might meet your needs. You nave the option of choosing Hard Drive as output device. That creates a disk image from which you can burn multiple physical disks.

  • IMovie crashes when I try to add audio file

  • My illustator crashes when i try to save  can you please help?

    My illustator crashes when i try to save  can you please help? im using Cs6

    Archelass,
    If the crashing happens when placing from/saving to new location with Yosemite, you maybe able to get round it by using the Adobe Dialog instead of the OS Dialog in the Place window (similarly for Save As in the Save As window).
    If crashing happens when moving objects, the issue may be caused by the Chrome Pushbullet extension, see this post #3 by Matt with the solution,
    https://forums.adobe.com/message/6984777#6984777
    or by the Adobe Color extension, see this post #2 byhexxstatic with the solution,
    https://forums.adobe.com/message/7095368#7095368
    or by the cache on the computer, see post #5 in this thread by Booklover with the solution,
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1696375
    Or, when issues start to appear in general you may try the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media. 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 current 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), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
    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 (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Acrobat x pro crashes when I try to flatten a pdf after using typewriter to insert a date

    acrobat x pro crashes when I try to flatten a pdf after using typewriter to insert a date.
    Has anybody else seen this problem? Is there a fix?
    I wanted to download the demo of acrobat XI but it says the previous version will be removed and deactivate the license. That sucks!

    Yes it is up to date.
    I can use the stamp tool and flatten it after with no problems, but the typewriter tool crashes it upon attempting to flatten.

  • Am I the only one for whom Illustrator 5.5 unexpectedly crashes when I try to save a doc?

    Am I the only one for whom Illustrator 5.5 unexpectedly crashes when I try to save a doc on Yosemite?Compatibility with Yosemite — Illustrator CS5.5

    Various folders. It usually allows me to re-save older files, but a new save is practically impossible to accomplish. I tried Reducing Transparency, as suggested in earlier posts to no avail. Also, when I drag an eps icon into Illustrator, it asks me if I want to retain the 9-slice scaling options for symbols — not sure what that means. Tried that both ways, with no results. Just had it crash on me 8 times this evening!

  • WHY MUSE 2014.3 crashes when I try to SAVE or SAVE AS ?

    Please MUSE team, I need your help.
    MUSE has never failed before to me ... just after update to 2014.3 it crashes when I try to SAVE or SAVE AS .. it freezes and I have to FORCE QUIT from MUSE.
    This site is already LIVE and need to make some updates for today .. I've emailed to [email protected]  attaching the screenshot and the MUSE FILE.
    Their answer is not clear ... I don't know if they will do something or I should do something in addition to what I sent ... PLEASE I have a compromise with my client and feel totally unsupported by you.
    Screenshot HERE
    MUSE answer here

    theEvaSite,
    I had something similar happen to me yesterday and after contacting Adobe Support, I had to send in my file so they could repair it. There are several other cases of issues when downloading the update, uploading files, etc. If you can open the file inside the new 2014.3 update, make changes, but cannot save or upload to FTP, etc...it's probably a file error issue that occurred after the 2014.3 update. The tech told me to downgrade back to the previous version for the time being so that I can still work and update the website. That requires an older file that was not converted after the update though. Hopefully you back up your muse files.
    To downgrade and work around this, uninstall the Muse app. Delete preferences. Go back to the CC panel/dashboard and install the previous 2014.2.1 version at the bottom (you'll have to click on the little arrow/gear icon just above the muse install button to select "Previous Version."
    This worked for me. Hope it helps

  • When I try and save a file Photoshop crashes "McAfee blocked suspicious activity-Buffer overflow"

    I never had this problem before. When i try and save a file Photoshop just fails instantly crashes and I get this error message from McAfee software:

    Well, you could just make your firewall behave and create an exception rule as the warning suggests... It's unlikely that this is PS itself, anyway. Eitehr it's a flakey driver or a cracked plug-in you may be using (not implying anything here, so keep cool) may produce a wrong hash value/ signature and trigger the alarm.

    Did you apply the security update to this Mac & not the others? If you did, check Software Update again. Apple has released an updated security update. This has fixed the problems caused by the first version.

    Hi Lindsay, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this for safety...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

    Hey divyakarelia,
    Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
    There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [[Firefox crashes]] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_firefox-crashes-when-i-start-it this article] as well.

    Hi. I'm having the same problem. I just did a complete wipe and reinstall of my MacBook Pro and installed a fresh copy of Logic Studio. I've been using Logic Pro quite happily for a week or so but tried to open Soundtrack Pro for the first time last night and it barely bounced once in the dock then it said that Soundtrack Pro quit unexpectedly. I tried a couple of times including resetting the application but still no joy. I then reinstalled Soundtrack Pro only from the Logic Studio installer DVD but it still isn't opening. Any ideas would be much appreciated. My whole machine is up to date via software update and I have also run Disk Utility and there are no problems. There is basically nothing on my machine at the moment either having done a complete reinstall. Are there any library files that could be deleted to fool it into opening fresh again? Plists etc perhaps? My error log brings up the same thing at the bottom saying that no image was found.
    Will keep digging around the archives and see if I can come up with anything.
