After effects WARNING: error with directory?

Okay so recently I had issues with text layers don't display correctly, and I posted here and found that the solution was to recreate my preferences file. However, since then I get an error when AE starts that says "after effects WARNING: error with directory:

C:\Documents and Settings\Brandon\Application Data\Adobe\After Effects\8.0\MediaIO". Is there a way to fix this without going back to the old preferences file that gave me the original problem?

And what happens if you simply delete the error? The directory itself is not so important, because it takes just presets and caches for Adobe Media Encoder based formats (MPEG-2, WMF, etc.). AE must re - create, if necessary. Before that, check the permissions on the folder as a starting point...

  • After Effects CC - errors of memory

    Recently, when I double click on a file of work After Effects to open it, I get an error titled error After Effects (7: 5): could not allocate enough memory to render the current image. The only way I can leave the program is ceasing force.  Another example is when I opened the work from After Effects. Sometimes it will work, but when I close the work I get a warning entitled: (76: 0) could not allocate 0.003 MB memory. I have enough memory on my computer to manage the work. This happens only on files with more than 2 layers.

    Please help as I have pending jobs because of it.

  • First/After Effects into conflict with the driver Sony SxS

    Hello Adobe community.

    I recently installed the driver Sony SxS on a MacPro with OS of Yosemite. After installing, first would not open (boot image is up but then freezes) and I had to force quit. After that the effects gave me error messages following when I tried to open it:

    After that the effects cannot continue: error when access to the files instead of inside "/ users/wktvsuiteuser/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects / 13.8", if it please check the file permissions and try again.

    After that the effects can't continue: unexpected failure during the application startup

    When I uninstall the SxS driver, Premiere and After Effects open without problem. After a few days later, I reinstalled the SxS driver, Premiere and After Effects are opened very well, but then this morning they stopped again opening. Other CC applications seem to open very well with the installed driver. Someone at - there no indication of the resolution of this conflict? Thank you.

  • After effects CC error (Windows 64)

    Hi Adobe community and owners!

    I have a very annoying problem, I want to change a file that is saved as a proyect .aep legacy,

    but when I try to open it, this window appears:

    ae.png

    As you can see, I'm working on 'Windows 8' and I don't know if that's the problem.

    If you're reading this on a phone, you probably can not read perfectly, so that's what he said:

    «After effects error: the file you are trying to open was created with after effects 13.0 (Windows 64) version»

    and cannot be opened with this version. »

    I await your replies, thanks!




    I sort of doubt that you're on the latest version of AE.  Looks like you may have version 12.

    Unless you successfully updated yesterday, in which case you have the version 13.5...

  • After effects rendering error

    Screen Shot 2015-04-18 at 01.18.49 (2).png

    «After effects error: make error while writing file 'filename'.» An output module is not. The file is maybe damaged or corrupted (-1610153464).

    file made with success to the project and bad quality, but this error is when the best quality.

    Tried to save in a different location rendered but the finished film not stopping every 2 seconds and takes 7 GB of space. The film is supposed to be long of 55 seconds.

    You use the default Animation codec which is the default codec. You should really study up on top of the rendering and formats. I guess that your connection to the external drive has had some problems of data rate or start bits. Try another cable or restore to your boot drive. You put across your latest screenshots to the point where they are very difficult to read, but it seems that everything is normal, except that your upper screenshot shows that the images only in the shot looks like it's from a GoPro and cadence of composition in the render settings appears only 24. It is not likely that this is the actual rate of the images. Select images in the composition in the project Panel and check out the cadence. If it is 59.94 your comp should either be 29.97 or 59.94. Due to the size, I suspect that the pace is not 24 but 23.976.

    This has caused probably not your problem, but frame rates are important to understand and use correctly.

  • After Effects Cs6 error 0: 42 - HELP -.

    Hello world

    I have some slight problems with after effects and adobe CS6 CC on my laptop first.

    I downloaded the CC application and can install all the applications, and all applications (photoshop, illustrator, etc. media encoder) works perfectly except AE and creation.

    My laptop features:

    8 GB ram

    NVIDIA 840M

    (It is said there is an integrated graphics card, perhaps this could be the problem? AE and first select it instead of 840 M)

    Samsung evo 250GB SSD (boot disk and where CC is installed)

    500 GB drive HARD 7200 RPM

    Consequences:

    When I run AE it starts the loading screen, but it crashes almost immediately when he says "Initializing Mediacore" and gives this error:

    After effects error: current Crash. Last logged message was: 7304 >

    Code result of Sniffer < GPUmanager > < 2 > 3

    (Error code 0: 42)

    I think it has something to do with my VGA drivers, but I uninstalled all drivers Nvidia and Intel and installed the most recent and previous driver versions. But no correction of the problem.

    Now heres where it gets interesting. yesterday, I decided to test whether a cracked version of AE CS6 worked on my computer. And he did, she flat smooth and everything worked as far as I could test.

    After I uninstalled the cracked version (everything deleted completely) and reinstalled CC. But still no luck.

    With regard to the first, at the time wherever the loading screen appears it says "Adobe Premiere CS6 has stopped working". All I can click is Cancel, and when I do it just farm first.

    I saw a thread where someone says the question is Nvidia geforce experience. But even when I do not install this AE and first do not work.

    I hope I gave you enough information!

    Thanks for your time

    Thanks for the info, but I found the problem!

    I had an update of windows to the left... kind of overlook this part ^^

    So if anyone has this problem, check your windows updates!

    I click on ok, then:

    Then AE will go forward and open. Do not know if these errors are actually the cause one problem yet other than that, they are SUPER annoying and it makes me sad to have these mistakes with a fresh new installation of the new "improved" software...
