I believe I had the same problem with Mavericks when it was released, but it's also with OS X 10.10 now (I know it's soon but just reporting it). Yosemite won't launch AE but all the other Adobe CS6 apps work great though. Had to get Java for Illustrator but that's it.
Just a heads up for AE artists that are also developers. 😃
The problem with Mavericks was that the Nvidia OptiX library had a problem that caused us to need to get an update from them to include with an After Effects patch.
We'll be testing with Yosemite now that it's available and see what may be broken that we need to fix.

Does not surprise me at all that an app that was just released in Beta today for developers may have some problems integrating with an app that is as complex as After Effects.

Awesome, I figured I'd let you guys know ASAP. Thanks for the reply!

So you have tried Lightroom 5 and PS CS6 on Yosemite and they both work fine?

PS CS6 works fairly well. Brushes are still responsive and snappy. Flickering in the app window once in a while if you're doing high resolution work.
Lightroom I'm not 100% totally sure but it launches fine. I haven't used it in a long time and it's REALLY outdated.
The menu's look cool though with the new Yosemite design!

Got a side track question. How you "get Java for Illustrator" to make it work? My AI crashes on startup.
Thanks a lot.

I'd be curious to know as well. Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC stability on Yosemite are the only thing I truly need to install this beauty

There's a little side button on the left that says "More info" when it launches.
It's called Java for OS X 2014-001 on Apple's website.

All Adobe other Apps work fine for me CS6 & CC on OS X 10,10 Yosemite, Except After Effects CS6 & CC
Hope to see a patch or fix soon..
Thanks guys

Thanks AbidalSarraj ! Your feedback is truly appreciated.
On another note, how would you rate the system's stability ?

So far I give it 8/10, most media editing apps are not stable or they won't start at all, but with other design apps and productivity they works fine and great.
I noticed my Mac got extra heat more than usual.

Like the OP says, I know its too soon for anyone to care but just throwing it out there: the CC app itself doesn't seem to auto load anymore. After Effects CC won't start with the same error as above. Photoshop CC works fine

So has there been any updates on this? Would be much appreciated if a beta - fix even was released before the official release of OSX 10.10. Once again, AE is the only problem that doesn't run (in regards to all the other typical production programs).
Thanks!

OS X Yosemite beta is brand new. They'll have more builds in the coming weeks of course...

It looks like this problem is because Apple removed a system font that After Effects uses for its interface on Mac OS. We're still investigating.

Which font? Could we simply install it to temporarily fix the issue?

I'll let you know when we know enough to confidently recommend a workaround.

Ok, thanks.

Thanks that would be great.
I know the topic says CS6, but I assume everywhere is aware that CC is having the same problems. (I don't expect there to be any difference in the approach for a fix).

I tried reinstalling the Lucida fonts but that did not do the trick. And i can confirm that in the main UI that IS the font used by AE.
Perhaps there are some other sections like in effects or maybe even some unused component that uses a different font.

Further investigation has revealed that it is not a simple matter of installing a font. We'll let you know when there's more information.
