Apple's QuickTime 7.4 Cripples Adobe After Effects
Apple's QuickTime 7.4 Cripples Adobe After Effects
by , 1:20 PM EST, January 23rd, 2008
Apple's QuickTime 7.4 is causing problems with Adobe's After Effects, according to a discussion on Apple's Support Forum. There are indications that Apple knows about the problem and is working on it.
Some users, including professionals who work at TV stations, are pleading with Apple to fix the problem quickly. A few have found work arounds and have described them. Some have used Time Machine to put their Mac back into a previous state. Others are scrambling to find Macs without the update.
One user wrote: "I just wrote Apple Support an e-mail requesting acknowledgement of the problem and some indication that they're working on it. I'll post anything I hear."

Does this include the new update for After Effects?

I had this issue two in the midst of a tight motion graphics deadline where I work and it prevented us from using two of our Mac workstations for rendering.
However using Pacafist to install Quicktime 7.3.1 and the previous version of iTunes worked a treat. Now those two machines are back in action.
