okay guys, new problem. After Effects won’t handle ANYTHING on this computer. before now, i could do almost anything in after effects and it could handle it. When i open it now, anything i do makes it slow down and just quit, and the same thing happens in Premiere Pro. Also, in the tutorial, they move the comp into the timeline and tons of elements are there; when i move the comp into the timeline, nothing shows up – no cameras, no 3D objects, nothing. just the composition. of course, even if i solved that issue, i wouldn’t be able to do anything because after effects keeps crashing. has anyone ever had these issues or knows how to solve them?
