Please help!! I started my Macpro this morning and after I launched Maya it refuse to open. The script editor says something like this:
// Error: file: /Applications/Autodesk/Maya.app/Contents/scripts/startup/layerEditor.mel line 4132: Could not find attribute named "defaultRenderLayer.precompTemplate" //

seems the problem is with Mental Ray.
Someone can help me, please????
Thanks a lot!!!

HI,
Open System Preferences/Accounts and click the Login Items tab. If you have any applications listed there to launch when you startup your Mac, delete them and see if that makes a difference.

    Hi. I am running Windows 8.1 on a  64 bit Toshiba Satellite P70-A laptop with 16Gb of RAM. I have installed Adobe Creative Suite 6 - Master Collection. All is fine except for Adobe Acrobat X. It runs OK  for a while, but then suddenly it won't work. I uninstall it, re-boot and re-install again, bit the same process repeats itself and once again I have to uninstall and re-install again. I don't know if windows update interferes with it? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is it fixable?

  • Suddenly buttons won't work!!!!

    i'm so confused...i've made many m any buttons in the first
    160 frames of my falsh file that all link to other frames and work
    perfectly...suddenly i'm trying to make new buttons and i keep
    getting this error Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method
    of a null object reference.
    at
    lampshadetemp_fla::MainTimeline/lampshadetemp_fla::frame180()
    even though i'm doing it the exact same way i made the other
    buttons....this is the code i use for a button..
    goldbtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,
    buttonClickHandler100);
    function buttonClickHandler100 (event:MouseEvent):void {
    gotoAndStop(215);
    what the hell?? HELP I'M DESPERATE

    Where ( what frame) do you place your button and where (what
    frame) do you write your code in? Looks like when the code is
    compiled - it doesn't see the object (button) yet. Check the
    sequence. Perhaps one of the remedies could be check for the
    existence of the object and if it does exist - add the
    listener.

  • Why can't I get the "duplicate" pull down to give me a copy of a photo? I have done this for years and suddenly, it won't work.

    I want to make a duplicate of a photo to edit, while keeping the original as it is. In the past, I have pulled down  "Photos" to "Duplicate" and it gave me a copy. This no longer is working. What should I do?  Thanks.

    What happens when you try the menu?  Have you tried the key combination Shift+Command+S?

  • Have used Illustrator CS5 for months. now it won't work- says "insufficient memory to run applic."

    Have used Illustrator CS5 for months. now suddenly it won't work- says "insufficient memory to run application". Lenovo w700, windows vista. Illustrator CS4 works, Photoshop CS5 works, everything else is working fine, in fact they all get loaded together.
    I found no solutions on the community board.
    Can I remove Ill. CS5 without damaging  CS4, and then reinstall CS5?  And if so, then how do I reinstall it?
    This is not fun.

    Nope, it opens a tiny little window, plus opening the floating tool menu
    This time I did not use the desktop short cut, but used what should be the exec icon under program files, expanded the window and it worked!
    Is this like taking my kid to the doctor-- I'm all better now daddy!

  • I used to be able to print with iPad now it won't work can you tell me the problem please? I didn't change anything that I know of

    I used to be able to print from my iPad to my wireless printer and then all of a sudden it won't work anymore. Does anyone know what the problem mat be?

    Sorry for this issue try looking at this articals to see if your printer is still listed and if it is look over the basics and if all thats good try seeing if your printer of your iPad needs a software update.
    How this helps.

  • Private Photos App - pictures not displaying This app was working fine, then suddenly it won`t display any of the photos.

    This app was working fine, then suddenly it won't display any of the photos. One day the photos were there, gone the next. It still shows how many photos are there but just shows a white screen. I can't export anything to the photo album. Adding photos to existing folders yields the same result, only white screen displayed. However, I can create new albums and add photos to those without issue. Does anybody know how to recover the "missing" photo"  I was going to try reinstalling the app but it's no longer available in the iTunes App Store. Thanks, Tracy

    1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
    2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
    3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
    5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
    6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

  • Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden?

    Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden? A few weeks ago Safari was working OK but now I often have to use Firefox to visit certain webpages.
    Anyone else having this same problem?
    Is there a quick fix?
    I'm using Safari 2.0.4
    Thanks.

    Hi QuickTimeKirk,
    I have WMP version 9, as well. I do not use F4M, for many users f4mac is what helps.
    I find some items work while others do not. I always get an alert about the wmp , which version it is, takes very long to load, I find it is not consistant with Safari, as seems the poster of this topic has found.
    Quoted from ms Mactopia site:

    Download and find information about Windows Media Player for Mac and playing Windows Media files in your QuickTime Player. Which download is right for you?
    Windows Media Components for QuickTime
    Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X

    Microsoft will continue to offer Windows Media Player for Mac as a download free of charge, but has no plans to provide future updates or product support.

    though 41 errors is not as poor as some, Firefox handles the site better than Safari, imo.
    Some sites just work better with Firefox or an other browser.

  • Suddenly all movies won't work in Safari

    Suddenly all quicktime or flash movies won't work in Safari. Just has the Quicktime logo with a question mark in the middle. I have the latest browser for Panther. What's the deal? It's a bit annoying seeing as I make films myself and can't test my uploads to You tube and so on. Help! Please.

    Same problem here. My extended problem is every time I re-install Flash Player, the movies work fine - UNTIL I need to exit Safari or shut down. When I bring it up again, the Question Mark is back. Also when I repair permissions the page just fills up with Flash Player Repairs. Looking for a pattern, I am now repairing permissions each time I re-install and my G4 iBook AND Intel duo does the same extensive repairs with each install. Help?

  • My iphone 4 'phone app' suddenly won't work

    My iphone 4 'phone app' suddenly won't work. It's not a microphone or other hardware problem because I can use viber normally. I have already upgraded to iOs 6.1.2 from a 5.1 (when the problem started), and even after the restore it still won't work.

    This is asked and answered multiple times daily.
    If you've tried a restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new as recommended in the User Guide and this fails to solve your problem, then you have a hardware failure and will need to bring your phone into Apple for replacement.
