Hello, I currently use CC and AE in my work PC computer and have projects there that I have been working on. After months of not being able to use CC apps like AI, PS, and AE, I was now able to download those apps specifically AE on my Macbook Pro M4 that is my personal computer. The adobe account is my own, but when I went and opened AE, my projects that was in my AE in my work computer is not on this app... how can I transfer or sync?
Overlod not transfering objects I think since I updated Ae2025. I am working on MacStudio M1 Max. Any ideas?
Hi everyone,I’m currently working on a very wide composition (11520x1152 px) with a camera and lots of 3D layers. In older versions of After Effects, it was possible to arrange the 2 Views either side by side (Horizontal) or stacked (Vertical).This option was removed years ago (for whatever reason?). When I use two comp views side by side, everything becomes extremely small at this resolution, which makes working with 3D layers and camera perspectives unnecessarily complicated.With a Vertical view (stacked), I could make much better use of my screen space and work far more efficiently. So my request is: Could you please bring back the option to switch between 2 Views Horizontal and 2 Views Vertical in After Effects? For everyone working with extremely wide formats, this would be a huge improvement.Thanks a lot!
So today for some unknow reason I am getting "Adobe After Effects error code 19972" and nothing will export. I used After Effects yesterday no issue. Now every project is giving me this error. I uninstalled After Effects and reinstalled it. Does anyone know what to do to fix this error. Beyond Frustrated right now and need to get this project exported with the finishing touches.

I'm working on a composition in After Effects and a png layer of a bird with effects gets cut off at full resolution in (see image it's to the left and shows up just as black triangle), but is fully visible and working effects in half resolution (see image ) . Could someone please me resolve this issue?
Hey there, I feel like I've been living under a rock but finally got to look into why it is possible that some people can create animation presets that look like 'plugins' but work natively. So I discovered the beautiful but seemingly incredibly clunky world of pseudo effects and I want to create my own. I've been looking for tutorials but while I can get them to work by altering the PresetEffects.xml in the install or by using a trial version of PseudoEffectMaker, I don't understand how to pack them into an ffx so they can be opened and used anywhere without other dependencies. Does anyone know of a resource that explains the process fully in a way a non script savvy person can follow? I also feel that the entire mechanism should be a complete native integrated feature in AE itself with friendly UI/UX directly in the software. It's a system much more powerful and useable than all these separate controls or Essential Graphics. But that's an entire discussion by its

It all started today when I tried to open a project that included the Zoom - Rotate 2D expression and from then on I couldn't find a way to get it to work again. I have already uninstalled the program 3 times and nothing. I am attaching a video so you can see my problem.
Hi,Every time i try to apply the advanced 3D to any layer (f.e. a solid or even text) , it says this:"advanced 3d plugin generated an unexpected exception" and then after effects closes/crashes. I tried a couple things but nothing worked. And google isnt helpful either. Any ideas?:) ---------------System info Application: After Effects v24.1.0.78 OS: Windows v10.0.19045, RAM: 15.95 GB GB, CPUs (logical): 12
My project opened fine a few days ago, but today it gave an error and won't open at all. I think some of the issues involved installing fonts and a new version of After Effects. I'm so frustrated. This project isn't finished yet.>>After effects Encountered errors while opening a project. 1) After Effecrs error: Error reading the text layer.Skipping the text layer>>your project file is apparntly damaged (skipped sections:9).

Hi, Can someone help me? Advanced 3D does not appear on my After Effects. I have an RX 6600. I have the impression that the software does not recognize my GPU.
Multi frame rendering now crashes consitently on my PC, tells me that my gpu runs out of ram.I have a RTX 5090.
I now open the project and it crashes after a while. Sometimes it crashes directly. My driver is the latest version, and AE is also the latest version. I don’t know what the problem is, so I can only come here for help.
Just this morning when I tried to double-click a comp in my timeline to open it (like I have a hundred times before) it doesn't open it. Instead it brings it into the window like it was footage.However, If I right-click and goto "Open Comp" it works fine, it just takes far longer. Any idea how to change it back?
How do I conform my 4:3 or 16:9 video to form a circle? I am not talking about cropping a circle in or out of my video. I am talking about changing the shape of my video so that the edges smoothe out to circular, the video distorts accordingly, and forms a cirlce in my sequence space. I have tried spherize, but it doesn't really do what I am looking to do. I have a camera angle upshot from the middle of a football huddle. I am trying to actually convert the video to a 360 degree video. I figured out how to fake a 180 degree video, and I also figured out that I can take the video and put it in Action Director and it will automatically populate into a 360 degree space..BUT when it does os, it looks kind of like a stretched pringle chip with straight edges on the left and right and that has corners that pinch. What I want is the video to drape down around me with the bottom edge being a 360 degree circle. I can move the video to the top of my 360 degree space
Hi, I have an after effects file I have been working on for a client. I just had the client on to run through final amends on a 5 minute film and I am getting the error message: AFTER EFFECTS WARNING: YUR PROJECT FILE IS APPARANTLY DAMAGED (SKIPPED SECTIONS: 😎 PLEASE SAVE USING A DIFFERENT NAME. ( 26 :: 0 ) I have looked all over google for a solution but can't find one. I have no backups to fall back on as I had been working on it from home. I tested the file yesterday at work and it worked fine so I then deleted the back up from my hard drive which obviously I now regret. If anyone had any ideas of how I can recover a weeks worth of work I will be forever grateful. Many thanks, Paul. PS if more information is required please ask.

Hello, I managed to google and use AI to write this script - it crops the selected layer to the layer above. Works well! But I'd also like it to move the last two keyframes on the position property to the layers new outpoint. I'm not sure if scripts are able to move keyframes like that? I haven't been able to find anything that works when adding it to this script. var selectedLayer = app.project.activeItem.selectedLayers[0]; var layerAbove = selectedLayer.index - 1; var layerAboveDuration = app.project.activeItem.layer(layerAbove).outPoint; selectedLayer.outPoint = layerAboveDuration; Any suggestions would be amazing. Thank you
Bonjour,C'est la première fois que je m'adresse à un forum (il y a un début à tout) et je vous remercie par avance de vos réponses si vous pouvez m'aider.Je travaille depuis un moment sur After Effects en autodidacte et je réalise une animation qui a deux états.Il s'agit d'une tête de Cylon de la série Battlestar Galactica, pour ceux qui connaissent. Ce robot a deux types d'animation : soit son œil translate de gauche à droite, soit il reste fixe tout en scintillant.J'ai créé ces deux animations à l'aide de deux calques et j'ai effectué deux rendus avec chacune d'entre elles.Par contre, comme j'ai créé ces deux calques dans le même projet, si je veux passer d'une animation à l'autre, je dois aller au fin fond des compositions et masquer/démasquer les deux calques.Ma question est la suivante : est-il possible d'afficher, par exemple, dans une petite fenêtre à part (ça serait extraordinaire), une case qui ferait que, si je clique dessus, elle masquerait l'un des deux calques pour affiche
What I want is to have a pixel perfect separation distance across each letter of a word:So, from the very side edges the distance between each letter to another must be exactly the same.Snap to grid was my first thought but it doesn't work because you will never get both sides of a letter to touch a grid line Any suggestions?
Hello, for grading I'm trying to create an alpha matte for the VFX Layer, I've attached a pic of how the Composited Layer looks like in AE that was applied to the original shot, how can I turn just the red blood parts into an alpha matte? As currently it exports all the white parts as part of the matte too? It's made up of multiple of layers.
Hi,In AE 2025 every time I add a comp to the Render Queue it goes back to the default “Best Settings” + “Lossless.”In older versions AE remembered my last render settings and output module, which was much faster.Would be great if AE could keep the last used settings again — it saves a lot of time.Thanks!
There are users not familiar with the After Effects feature that allows you to drag a numeric property value in the timeline into the Composition Panel to display this value dynamically. The only issue with this feature is that it writes Expression that uses Javascript String Concatenation which is messy to edit and almost always leads to user error. So, I wrote a script that converts the Expression to one that uses Template Literals which uses Javascript String Interpolation which is more readable and a lot easier to edit so you can more easily apply text styling and paragraph alignment of your choice.Download Link to the script and other Useful Links are below - https://www.broadcastgems.com/post/creating-dynamic-overlay-values-in-adobe-after-effects
One of the bigger frustrations I have with AE comes up when I open a project created by someone else, and the AE UI converts to THAT person's layout. I can think of 0 instances in which that would be of any use. I know I can go to Window->Workspace and call my saved layout back up, but why should I have to? Please change this behavior.
