So I was working on a project this morning for a few hours and all of a sudden it stopped playback when I would press the spacebar.
I restarted After Effects obviously, it would work for a few minutes and then it would stop again. When I would close the project the spinning wheel of death would show up and AE would stop responding so I'd have to force quit.
I even restarted my computer, that didn't work. I went on multiple forums and YouTube videos to see if I can find a solution, all the solutions stated, I did, and still didn’t work. I don’t know what’s going on all of sudden. This is the first time Ive had this issue and I’m at a loss with this. I have a project due for a client and the deadline is today unfortunately. I need this fixed immediately. I am in the process of reinstalling after effects to see if that does the trick. If not, I may try to install a older version!
This is honestly so irritating. If anyone has any advice at all, PLEASE HELP.

Hi there,
Sorry for your issue. I see that you are having issue with preview in After Effects.
Did reinstalling it help? If not, please share the following information:
In the meantime, try updating your GPU driver if it's not already.
Let us know.
Thanks,
Nishu

1. MacOS Mojave
16 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT 650M 1GB
2. I am using After Effects 2020, the most recent version.
3. Yes, it has happened in more than one paroject, I managed to get this specific
project initially done but I am encountering the same issue now with a new project.
I'll try updating my driver. I did try reinstalling but that didn’t help since I’m encountering the
same issue! It was working fine yesterday since I finished a project but all of sudden it is doing
the same thing. Please help.

I am unable to update my graphics on my macbook pro. I don't think mac supports my card anymore so I think it updates itself with each software update
