Adobe Premeire Pro 2 Failed to Start - Cannot Load plugin write_on.AEX

Brian Kocher writes in the Adobe forums that he is having trouble starting Adobe Premiere Pro 2 on his computer. The program was working normally but now Premiere Pro shows the welcome screen and abruptly end while saying "Loading write_on.AEX".

When Brian renamed the Adobe Affects Plugin write_on.aex to something else, the Premiere Pro software got stuck at another .aex filter in the same directory. A repair installation of Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 followed by a computer restart did not help.

He tried move all the Adobe Premiere plugin in the folder en_US to another place but no luck.

In Premiere Pro you can press the Shift Screen while the welcome screen is loading to reset your custom preferences but that didn't help either. Is there a way to get Premiere Pro 2.0 to start normally without having to reinstall Adobe Production studio again ?

Another user says that his trial version of Premiere Pro 2.0 is causing his computer to restart everytime it tries to load the write-on.aex file.

One of the solution suggested to prevent Adobe Premeir Pro from terminating abnormally is to move the Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Premiere Pro\2.0 folder to another location and restart Premiere.

If that doesn't help, do you have an old version of Apple Quicktime or Total Recorder ? Here's some help from Adobe Tech Docs to resolve the various issues that occur when you try to start Adobe Premiere Pro.

Remove third-party VST plug-ins from the default VST directory.

Some third-party VST plug-ins may prevent Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 from starting. To determine if you have a conflicting VST plug-in, temporarily relocate any third-party VST plug-ins to a different directory on your hard drive and start Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0.

Re-create the Adobe Premiere Pro PluginCache file.

Some startup problems are caused by a damaged PluginCache file. To re-create the file, hold down the Shift key while choosing Start > Programs > Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0. Release the key when the Welcome screen appears.

To re-create the Preferences file, navigate to Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Premiere Pro\2.0 and delete the Adobe Premiere Pro Preferences file. The next time you launch Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 the Preference file will be recreated.

Remove third-party plug-ins from the Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 Plug-ins folder.

Remove third-party plug-ins from the Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 Plug-ins folder, and then restart Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0. If the problem doesn't occur after removing third-party plug-ins, determine which plug-ins are problematic by replacing the plug-ins one at a time, restarting Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 each time.

Disable emulated audio drivers or universal audio capture and playback utilities.

Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 requires a standard Direct Sound audio driver or a compatible ASIO 2.0 audio driver. If Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 returns the error, "Adobe Premiere Pro has encountered an error and needs to close" when you try to start, there may be an emulated audio driver or universal audio capture and playback utility installed on the system, such as High Criteria's Total Recorder.

How to Download Contacts from Facebook To Outlook Address Book

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry. Some third-party Facebook hacks like "Facebook Sync" (for Mac) and "Facebook Downloader" (for Windows) did allow you to download your Facebook friends' names, emails, mobile phone number and profile photo to the desktop but they were quickly removed for violation of Facebook Terms of Use. How to Download Contacts from Facebook There are still some options to take Friends data outside the walls of Facebook wall. Facebook offers the Takeout option allowing you to download all Facebook data locally to the disk (include

PhishTank Detects Phishing Websites by Digg Style Voting

OpenDNS, a free service that helps anyone surf the Internet faster with a simple DNS tweak , will announce PhishTank today. PhishTank is a free public database of phishing URLs where anyone can submit their phishes via email or through the website. The submissions are verified by the other community members who then vote for the suspected site. This is such a neat idea as sites can be categorized just based on user feedback without even having to manually verify each and every submission. PhishTank employs the "feedback loop" mechanism where users will be kept updated with the status' of the phish they submit either via email alerts or a personal RSS feed . Naturally, once the PhishTank databases grows, other sites can harness the data using open APIs which will remain free. OpenDNS would also use this data to improve their existing phishing detection algorithms which are already very impressive and efficient. PhishTank | PhishTank Blog [Thanks Allison] Related: Google
