See this page for information about hardware for Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and After Effects: https://adobe.ly/pRYOuk
An iMac is a fine computer for these applications, which are the most demanding of the Adobe applications. The others that you mention, such as InDesign and Muse, are far less hardware-intensive than Photoshop and the video applications.

> For awhile After Effects would give me this error message when trying to use the Dynamic Link – “Unable to execute script at line 36. After Effects error: Can’t overwite file “/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/10.0/Adobe After Effects 10.0-x64 Prefs”. It hasn’t shown that error message in a few days. Couldn’t figure it out.
Mac OS has incorrectly set the permissions for some files.
When you upgrade a Mac OS (as opposed to installing the new version fresh), Mac OS will _often_ set permissions of folders and files incorrectly.
You’ll see this problem in programs like After Effects in the form of error messages saying that a file can’t be written, overwritten, or renamed.
To fix this in the case of After Effects, go to the preferences folder and set the _entire_ preferences folder ( /Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/10.0/ ) and all of its contents to be writable, not read-only.

Use the keyed layer as an alpha matte (track matte) for the layer with the fractal effect.

Yes, the command for adding items to the AME queue from After Effects was added in After Effects CC (12.0).

Give more details about your computer, including the GPU.
You’re not trying to use the ray-traced 3D renderer, are you?

Keylight is for keying out hues/colors, especially green and blue.
For creating transparency based on luminance, you are better off using the Extract effect:
