It might be a good idea to study the tutorials on the Sapphire effects. Most temporal effects require pre-composing to yield correct results and on top of it you are scaling your layers underneath, so I'm pretty sure the plug-in is doing everything correctly, you're just not using the correct methodology.

Adjustment layers can be very finicky. They are not a universal solution. Pre-composing is often a much better option. Your screenshot does not give us any info about the effects settings or the size of the Adjustment Layer. The only thing that is obvious is that there is probably an unlicensed effect somewhere in the comp.
