help?

Hi,
This file is should not be a vCalendar file. It should be a iCalendar file. Change the file extension to .ics .
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar

ICal unable to import this .vcs file

I have tried various edits to this vcs file that a site I use generates but have not been able to have iCal successfully import the file. I get the error message when using "import a vCal file": "This calendar file is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal Calendar." Any idea what I need to change to get iCal to import this vcs file ?

I copied your text and saved it as a .ics file before dropping it on iCal. It added 4 new events, Monday-Thursday next week.

Why wont imovie import my psd. files?

I am a photographer and wanted to make a slideshow of a bunch of the work that I have edited in Photoshop. However, they have been saved as PSD. files. Will imovie allow these? If not, any suggestions on how to convert them. If downloading is necessary I would like it to be free if possible. Thanks for any help or suggestions! I am SOO frustrated!

+in addendum+ to Winston's advice
iMovie uses video-codecs, which means: low res compared to what you see on your computer's screen, lower color-res, high compressed files.
don't expect wonders
for creating 'HiDef' slideshows, consider usage of specialized apps as Boinx' FotoMagico.

IOS 7 Calendar does not show appointments imported as VCS files in Microsoft Outlook / Exchange. Any solutions?

iOS 7 Calendar does not show appointments imported as VCS files in Microsoft Outlook / Exchange in Windows 7. I discovered this when downloading itinerary.vcs files from Delta to mark flights in my calendar. The work around I found is as follows:
Open the VCS file, this will create a Calendar entry in your Outlook,
Open the created Outlook Calendar entry, go to File -> Save As and then select to save as ICS file.
Delete original VCS-created appointment in your calendar to avoid multiple calendar.
Open the re-saved ICS file.
Appointment will now correctly synchronize with your iPhone iOS 7 calendar.
If anyone has better alternatives to this process, please help out. Hopefully, Apple will fix this with the next iOS update.

Prores files not recognized... most of the time [message -- file '[file name].mov' cannot be imported – this 'MooV' file is damaged or unsupported.]

Running AE CC 13.2 on iMac with Yosemite 10.10.2
I just started getting an error message when trying to import any number of ProRes 422 (HQ) files.
file ‘[file name].mov’ cannot be imported – this ‘MooV’ file is damaged or unsupported.
This happens approximately 90% of the time. There have been occasions where I can open and view files of this type.
I have gone through the various troubleshooting options here:
http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/08/solutions-for-problems-with-quicktime-files-in -after-effects-cc-12-0-because-of-conflict-with-dvcprohdvideoout-quicktime-component.html
I reinstalled ProApps to no avail.
Permissions are fine.
Creative Cloud recently updated AE over the past few days. Perhaps this incremental update fouled something up? Last weekend, things worked perfectly fine.
I have also noticed that it takes a lot longer to load AE (since using last weekend). I have used Time Machine to roll the application back to last week's version to see if that helps.
Any insight is appreciated.

The update last week was just to Adobe Camera RAW and not really AE. It would be unlikely to cause the issues you describe. Have you tried turning your Mac all the way off and then back on again?

After Effects Error "error cannot be imported this moov file is damaged or unsupported"

I'm working on a AE project and shut the project down before going to lunch. I come back and open it up and I get this error:
after effects error cannot be imported this moov file is damaged or unsupported
Nothing had changed in my project since earlier today. I've tried to import other .mov's and get the same error, I've also tried to relink the footage.
Any thoughts?

We need to know a lot more if we're going to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"

But really dont know much of after effects so the first thing what are third-party components?

Begin by giving us more information. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
Be sure to tell us where the .mov file came from and what codec it uses.

I am trying to import for Sony RAW .mxf files in AE. I get an error message, cannot be imported - this.mxf file is damages or unsupported.

I am on a PC. AE version 12.1.0.168. It is updated.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem. We are working on a feature film shot on Sony F55 in 4K RAW.

Thanks. Now it works in PP and AE.

First, your AE needs to be updated. The current version is 12.2.1.5
If that does not fix the problem let us know.
Second question, are you using the Sony import utility? If not, give that a try. Last question, can you open the files in Premiere Pro? I hope you are not trying to cut a feature film in After Effects.

ICal import of .ics file and receive alarms error

I receive an error import failed, items cannot be deleted from alarms. This only happens every so often. How can I resolve?

Hi,
Where do the .ics files come from? I believe iCal during event import scans the file for alarms it considers unsafe (some file action alarms etc.), it is probably an issue of it not being able to remove one of these if the .ics file is not formatted correctly.
When this happens is there any related information in your Console output (Applications > Utilities > Console). There should be something there that may indicate why it's happening.

Can't import this illustrator file? distorts

Trying to import this file into flash as I need to zoom in
and out of the image but when I import it, it just distorts the
elements for some reason. am I doing something wrong? I've tried
exporting it for illustrator as a swf or an ai file but still no
joy?
http://www.viva360.com/paper_bags.ai
thanks in advance to anyone that has any ideas.

Illustrator and Flash are mostly not compatible. You will
almost always have problems when importing Illustrator files into
Flash. The only thing you can try is to save your Illustrator file
to an older format (Illustrator 8 or older; 5 is preferable). You
may lose some effects. But so what? You will lose them in Flash
anyway.
I gave up on importing AI into Flash years ago. The real best
solution is to make your original graphics directly in Flash or in
a more Flash-compatible program like Freehand.

Why do some imported jpegs, psd files show as black rectangles?

I recently scanned a dozen B&W 8x10 prints, plus a color book dust jacket, into Photoshop, saving all to my desktop variously as jpegs, TIFFs and PSDs, then attempted to import the images to my iPhoto library. Some showed up fine but most were simply black rectangles. With Get Into I could see the file size and the format, but that's it.
One failed import was a 20MB jpeg, so file size might be an issue. But all other other failed imports were in the 2.7MB to 12MB. Suspecting file size may be the problem, I used PS to change the image size from 600dpi to 300 dpi, dropping the size to 5MB or so, and that worked. Question: Is there a size restriction on importing files to the iPhoto library? Any advice much appreciated. Thanks! John Grissim.
MacMini dual-core Intel, OS 10.6.8, iPhoto 6.0.6, CS3 Photoshop

Black and white photos scanned as grayscale are not supported by iPhoto. Actually it's the color profile, Dot Gain 20%, which is used that causes the problem. CMYK color mode photos are also not supported by iPhoto.
For PSD files if you have an alpha channel that can cause problems in iPhoto.
With iPhoto size does'nt matter. I've imported 100 MB files without a problem. In resizing you mighty have changed the profile or something that made it usable.
Scan all b/w photos as color. You'll get the same result but they will be iPhoto compatible.
If you want to conver the current b/w scans without rescanning you can try one of the conversions apps available at Toad's Cellar.

Why are my imported mp4 video files upside down and black and white?

After effects CS6 error file cannot be imported - this 'moov' file is damaged or unsupported

Hi there,
I'm working in After Effects CS6 (11.0.2.11)
I imported an AAF that was exported from Avid MC 6.5.2. I colour corrected and graded the sequence using colorista 2 and magic bullet looks and some other native AE FX.
Before exporting I decided to double check something to do with the audio. I imported the same AAF into FCP 7, took a quick look, but decided nothing needed to be done. I tabbed back to AE (which was left open), and upon returning, AE started giving me all these 'damaged or unsupported' errors.
Subsequently, AE will now not import any quicktime movies - even ones I rendered out of after effects earlier in the day (these quicktimes use ProRes422 codecs, animation codecs and other lossless codecs)
I've restarted, re-exported the AAF several times using diff settings, uninstalled perian... but to no success.
Anyone got any good ideas? I've had this happen before, where AE will import an AAF and it works first time no problem. Then something happens when I re-open the project and boom... 'moov' errors. It's really odd and very annoying - esp since it now won't import other normal quicktime movies too - with the animation codec. I have quicktime 7 pro installed and quicktime X on Mountain Lion (OS 10.8.3).

I have the exact same problem on a Mac with 10.8.3 and After Effects from the Adobe CS6 MasterCollection (AE 11.0.2.11 (german)): all of a sudden I cannot import any native QuickTime-Movies (ProRes, Animation) or even movies that use e.g. H264 in a QuickTime container. Even projects that worked 2 days ago that contain QuickTime-movies will not open anymore.
This happened 2 days ago without any action from me that I can think of that could have caused this. I did not install any new codecs or plugins, nor was there anything in the apple software update.
What I tried/checked so far (to no avail):
disks are OK,
file permissions are OK,
no Firewall is blocking anything,
deleted AE-prefs,
removed all 3rd-party plugins,
removed all 3rd-party codecs.
Edit: I did some further poking around, and it turns out that after deleting or resetting file permissions of the folder "~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects" AE will briefly allow you to open an existing project that contains QT-movies. If you then try to import any QT-movie you get the error message -- and after that you cannot open the project again.
This is really bad -- AE is basically unusable right now.
P.S.: The (german) error-message is this: "After Effects Fehler: Die Datei "filname.mov" kann nicht importiert werden: Datei "MooV" ist entweder beschädigt oder wird nicht unterstützt."

Why wont iCal acknowledge accepted invites? iCal to iCal?

Good afternoon:
Today, I'm using Lion and my daughter is using the latest version of Snow Leopard, but this was a problem when we were both using Snow Leopard too.
I send her and my wife and invitation via iCal. Wife accepts and in the event it shows she has accepted. Daughter accepts and it does not. I have the email with the attachment and I have iCal set to retrieve the invitations automatically and yet.....nothing.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter since I have the email so I know she has it on her calendar but it still cranks me. Why do some iCal to iCal invitations not work?
Mine are sent from my .Mac address and go to my daughters POP account and she responds to my .Mac account. Can it really be that iCal invitations only work between .Mac email addresses? Surely not.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

smorgus,
Or was it because I told Mac Mail (aka Mail.app) that my default email reader is Thunderbird? In Preferences > General > Default email reader.
AFAIK, that is one of the purposes of that preference.
;~)
