> I am getting the same message, incompatible effects or expressions, multiprocessing is off. ? not sure why,
Did you read the page that I pointed to (“When After Effects temporarily disables multiprocessing”), which gives a complete list of conditions that cause Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously to be disabled?

It sounds like you want to be using Hold interpolation for your Rotation property keyframes.

None directly. But Photoshop can import 3D models, and you can use PSD files with 3D object layers in After Effects.

You can select all of the keyframes and drag the x or y values in the Timeline panel. (See this page.)
Also, you can separate Position into its components if you’d rather work that way.

Mitch,
If you’re using ProRes 422 footage, then make sure that you’ve read this post, including the comments.

A side note on the topic of the Animation codec for intermediate files: I’ve recently been using the PNG codec within QuickTime containers instead of the Animation codec. The PNG codec is lossless at the highest quality settings—just like Animation—but the file sizes are about half for photorealistic subject matter. (Animation still wins for images with large expanses of flat color, since that’s what the Animation codec’s RLE scheme is optimized for.)
So, for an 8-bpc lossless intermediate codec, I recommend giving PNG in a QuickTime container a spin.
(I am not, of course, recommending either of these as a playback or final delivery format.)

> ALSO – are there other presets I can download,
You can get free animation presets from a lot of places, including the Adobe After Effects Exchange.
To learn how to save your own animation presets, see this page.

If you’ve contacted Adobe technical support and not gotten a solution, I can help to escalate your issues. (No, I can’t promise to fix your problem—as that is far from being my job—but I can pass a case number along and say “Hey! Answer this guy!”)
