To infinite media from the internet

![](/files/-MLw43sXxv0JvY_4zySz)

## About

**Wander** is a tool to search and import more than 62+ million media items from the internet with ease. Wander is available as an **Extension** to extend the functionality of the **Creative Cloud** applications **Adobe After Effects** and **Adobe Premiere**.&#x20;

## System requirements

Due to the **Adobe** **Extension API** becoming available in lat&#x65;**-**&#x32;017, **Wander** can only be installed on modern versions of Adobe Creative Cloud application.

Wander is compatible with any workstation with hardware that can run **Adobe Premiere** or **Adobe After Effects**. *See below for a list of software compatibility:*

| Applications     | Versions |
| ---------------- | -------- |
| After Effects CC | 2019+    |
| Premiere CC      | 2019+    |
| Illustrator      | 2019+    |

{% hint style="danger" %}
**We recommend using Wander in Adobe After Effects. Adobe After Effects is best suited to import transformed images and SVGs.**
{% endhint %}

### Additional requirements

**Wander** makes use of third-party APIs to search and import media. Most of these services are for commercial use but always make sure you check their licenses before using the media in commercial projects.

*For more about the licenses of the services see below:*

# Activate license

Easy as 1, 2, 3

## **Summary**

When **Wander** is first installed a **License Key** is required to activate and finalize the process. You can **log in** and **out** of your License Key and easily switch to a different workstation.

## **Open Application**

**Wander** supports **Adobe After Effects** and **Adobe Premiere**. See [**System Requirements**](/#system-requirements) for more information about the Creative Cloud versions supported.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**We recommend using Wander in Adobe After Effects. Adobe After Effects is best suited to import transformed images and SVGs.**
{% endhint %}

## **Launch Wander**

To open Wander, go to your **Application Bar > Window > Extensions > Wander**

{% hint style="info" %}
Wander is resizable, scalable and dockable. Drag and drop the Wander window anywhere in your application Workspace.
{% endhint %}

## Enter license key

When Wander is opened for the first time, a **License Key** is required to **log in** and finalize your installation.

### Get license key

You can get your License Key from your Checkout Email.\
If you forgot your License Key, you can recover it on our [**License Recovery**](https://mtmograph.com/pages/license-recovery) page

{% hint style="info" %}
After the first valid **Login** Wander can work in **Offline Mode** for 7 days. After that, an internet connection is needed to re-validate the license.
{% endhint %}

# Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions

## Make sure your Adobe installation is up to date

Wander supports Adobe After Effects version **CC2019 and up**.\
If you are running an older version, please update the program.\
If you cannot or don't want to update, we can only help you by refunding your order.

## Make sure you are running the latest version of Wander

Most issues are solved with a clean install, and / or removing the configuration data.\
So before anything else, make sure you've got the latest version of Wander installed. You can find and download the latest version of Wander [here](https://mtmograph.com/pages/downloads).

## Adobe 2024 Update

If you've recently updated to AE 2024 and are experiencing issues, you can try the following:

1. First, make sure to use our .*exe or .pkg* installer. This will ensure that old extension versions are properly cleaned up.
2. If on Windows, and the Motion 4 panel is not displaying, try running After Effects as an Admin. You should only have to do this once.&#x20;
3. If you're still experiencing issues, you can try a ZXP installer. We recommend <https://install.anastasiy.com/>, as it has full support for Adobe 2024 applications. Other ZXP installers do not support 2024 as of this writing.

## Check your Extensions folder

Sometimes, updates between Adobe applications, installer bugs, or other issues can lead to the extension being duplicated or corrupted in your extensions folder. You can find your extensions in the following locations:

***

On **Windows**, the folders are:\
`C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions`

or

`C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions`

and

`C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME_HERE\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CEP\extensions`

\
And on **macOS** the folders are:\
`/Users/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions`

and

`/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions`

***

From here, you should see a **Wander** folder. If you see any *additional* Wander folders (such as **com.mtmograph.wander**), you should **delete** them. After deleting the additional folders, you can restart the Adobe application.

## Uninstalling Wander

If you are still having problems with Wander you can try to uninstall Wander completely. You have two options here:

If you successfully logged in with your license key and you are able to access the panel, you can go to the Menu > About > Uninstall. This action will remove all of the files and folders associated with Wander for you.

If you are not able to log in with your license key and you are encountering problems on the login screen, you can remove the following files (same as above)

On **Windows**, the folders are:\
`C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions\Wander`

or

`C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions\Wander`

and

`C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME_HERE\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CEP\extensions\Wander`

\
And on **macOS** the folders are:\
`/Users/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions/Wander`

and

`~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions/Wander`

When all the folders are removed, install Wander again with the latest installer. You can find the latest installer [here](https://www.mtmograph.com/pages/downloads).

## Clear the configuration data

Wander stores your license key and other preferences in a configuration folder.\
Some of these files might have gotten corrupted, causing Wander to work incorrectly, and most commonly reported "Hang on the loading screen".

By removing the configuration folder, you will get a 100% clean installation.

On **Windows**, the folder is:\
`C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME_HERE\AppData\Roaming\wanderstable`\
\
And on **macOS** it is:\
`/Users/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/Library/Application Support/wanderstable`

## Manual installation

failSome problems occur during the regular installation method and thus is a manual installation required. This should only be done if both the pkg/exe installation and the ZXP installation fails. Manually installing Wander goes as follows:&#x20;

On **Windows**:

1. Download the latest .[ZXP](https://www.mtmograph.com/pages/downloads) for the tool.
2. Rename the .ZXP file to .zip
3. Unzip the .zip, you will get a folder.
4. **(Important!)** Rename the folder to **Wander**
5. Copy that Folder to:

   C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions\ (64 bit operating system)\
   or\
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions\ (32 bit operating system)
6. Restart the Adobe program

on **macOS:**

1. Download the latest .[ZXP](https://www.mtmograph.com/pages/downloads) for the tool.
2. Rename the .zxp file to .zip
3. Unzip the .zip, you will get a folder.
4. **(Important!)** Rename the folder to **Wander**
5. Copy that Folder to

   \~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions
6. Restart the Adobe program
