Fixed an issue with Real-Time 3D Draft Preview that caused the state to not be preserved when opening a saved project.
Fixed an issue with Real-Time 3D Draft Preview that caused compositions to render incorrectly when multiple compositions were opened in individual viewers with Draft 3D enabled.
Fixed an issue that caused panning using space bar shortcut to not work in the render queue.
Fixed an issue that caused using the custom keyboard shortcuts from After Effects 18.0 in
After Effects 18.1 to break the “V” hotkey for Selection tool.

Don’t know if this will work for ya’ll but it worked for me. This is a step-by-step guide of what I did.
1. Install Adobe Creative Cloud:

-Open the “Extra” folder from the .dmg file.
-Install Full or Minimum Adobe Creative Cloud from the Extra folder first.
Minimum ACC Runtime_x86_64 (Intel) or Runtime_ARM64 (ARM) is fine. You can choose either the “Full” or “Minimum” version as mentioned in the readme file. The “Minimum” version should be sufficient.

2. Install Adobe After Effects:

-Open the “Install” Folder in the .dmg file.
-Click on the “Install” button to start the installation process and follow the on-screen instructions to and complete the installation.

3. Apply the Crack:

-Locate the “crack.zip” file in the .dmg file.
-Extract the contents of “crack.zip”. Inside this folder, you will find files that need to be replaced with the After Effects files you prevoiusly installed.
-Navigate to the After Effects installation directory, which is usually located at /Applications/Adobe After Effects 2025 (folder)/Right-Click Adobe After Effects 2025/Show Package Contents.
-Copy all files in “crack” folder, Paste & Replace the files in this directory with the corresponding files from the extracted “crack” folder.i
Modify the Hosts File:

4. Modify Hosts FIle:

-Open the “Terminal” application on your Mac. Find it in Applications > Utilities > Terminal.
-Type the following command and press Enter to open the hosts file:

sudo nano /etc/hosts

-Enter your password when prompted.
-Go to the URL provided in the readme file: https://a.dove.isdumb.one/list.txt.
-Copy all the lines(with their corresponding domain) without the hashtags (i.e 0.0.0.0) from this list.text
-In the “Terminal” Tap the down arrow until a empty entry and Paste.
-Save the changes by pressing Control + O, then press Enter, and exit the editor by pressing Control + X.

5. Block with Firewall:

-Open “System Settings” and go to “Network”.
-Click on the “Firewall” tab(enable if it is disabled by default).
-Click “Options”, then “+” and block internet access to Adobe After Effects 2025 app by selecting “Block incoming connections”.

6. Restart
-Restart your system

After completing all steps mentioned, you should be able to launch Adobe After Effects 2025.
If you encounter any error, it’s possible that the crack wasn’t applied correctly or there’s an additional step needed. Try these:

1. Reapply the Crack:

-Double-check that you’ve replaced all the necessary files in the /Applications/Adobe After Effects 2025 (folder)/Right-Click Adobe After Effects 2025/Show Package Contents directory with the files from the extracted “crack” folder.
-Ensure that you haven’t missed any files and that the replacement was done correctly.

2. Check for Updates:

-Sometimes updates override the crack. Make sure that Adobe Creative Cloud is not set to automatically update After Effects. Do this by going to the Creative Cloud desktop app, selecting “Preferences”. Find & Disable “Automatically update apps”.

3. Modify Additional Files:

-Sometimes might need to modify additional files. Check the readme file or any additional documentation that came with the crack for any extra steps.

4. Use a Different Crack:

-If the above steps don’t work, try a different crack. Search for “Adobe After Effects 2025 crack for Mac” or something and look for a different source.
-If you do find one, make sure to follow the instructions provided with the new crack carefully.

5. Check Your Hosts File:

Ensure that your hosts file modifications are correct and that there are no typos. Make sure that the domains and IP addresses you’re blocking are the correct ones. You can also try using online tools to verify that your hosts file is set up correctly.

6. Firewall Settings:

-Double-check your firewall settings to ensure that the necessary domains or IP addresses are being blocked. Use tools like “Little Snitch” to help with this process.

7. Check for Conflicts:

-Ensure that no other Adobe applications are running in the background that might be causing a conflict. Close all Adobe applications in “Activity Monitor” before launching After Effects.

8. Reinstall After Effects:

If none of the above steps work, uninstall After Effects and delete all respective files that relates to it then reinstall again using the steps provided earlier. Make sure to apply the crack immediately after installation.

If for some reason you’ve tried all these steps and more and it’s still not working then I don’t know. Ask the community in Reddit, or forum wherelse. Just do something.

Asking for password to open Adobe toolkit

Farabi January 23, 2024 At 12:24 am

it works guys running smoothly on 2022 MBA m2, just follow these steps thoroughly:

nstall and log in with a fake Adobe Creative Cloud account that you find in the attachment.
At the end of the installation, turn off the internet and disable automatic updates of the Adobe App from the settings.
Open terminal and type:
sudo xattr -cr and drag the Adobe After Effects Setup. Confirm.
Example:
xattr -cr /Users/administrator/Downloads/Setup/Setup.app

Restart your Mac and launch the installation.
Apply the patch at the end of the procedure.

Adobe Premiere will install in Italian.
To change the program language, before installation go to Setup.app\Contents\Resources\products
open the Driver.xml file with a text editor and replace your language in the field:
en_IT

(Skip the first Creative cloud installaton part if u already have CC installed on your mac.)
