HELP Multiclip questions

I recently shot a 3 cam event straight to hard drives in dvcpro hd format. My goal is to multi-cilp the 3 cams for an easy edit. In order to do this I made synced timeliness and turned them into quicklime reference clips. I then turned the reference clips into a multi-clip. Now here's the problem, I'm running off of a fire wire 800 drive and cant get smooth playback on all of my computers. The computers that I can get playback working on are newer mac pros, but there isn't much differences between the slightly older mac pros I have and the newer ones. There all 8 core Intel mac pros with 8 gigs of mem or more. Any idea why the playback is only smooth on the newest mac pros? (when I reference the clips from an internal drive it works fine)
Things I have tried -
deleting prefs/swapping prefs
Clearing Pram/ect...
Fixing permissions,
resting the firewire controller,
Changing sequence settings,
and more...
The only thing I can think of that might be the issue is that apple updated there firewire 800 controller in the newer mac pros. I guess I just want something concrete before I give up on the older mac pros useing the 800 drive as a source.

Thanks for the post, but I've looked through that article before. The reason I'm doing the workflow I am is because we had no way to sync the timecode of the three cams at the shoot. There were several clips made per cam over several days. So to make it work we synced all three cams by hand and made a reference clip per cam so we could make one big multi-clip. That all works, in fact it worked great and fast. The problem is that only our newest mac pros can we playback the video without it jittering and freezing. On our slightly older mac pros we get an error about the disk speed not being fast enough (even though it works on our newer mac pros) and if we check the box for the warning not to be shown again the video plays fine for a few secs then jitters and stops, but the audio keeps going. The multi-clip in terms of being a multi-clip plays fine. Also if we put some of the footage on a local drive it works fine as a multi-clip. Its just the older mac pros and playing the multi-cilp off a firewire 800 drive that I'm having issues with.

Actually, we cannot (at least anymore) directly email the team. I tried and got a reject from the mail server. So, I'm going to post here so I can feel better knowing I said something and then I can get back to programming :-)
Ok, I’ve been developing Windows apps since Win 3.1 (yeah, a long time) and have always admired the Microsoft attitude towards Developers and it’s desire to educate and empower R&D.
So, I’m wondering what’s going on? Why am I being asked to have an account to develop anything for MY own PC? Why am I being asked for my Microsoft account password, repeatedly, when I’m just looking up documentation on UserControl or C3 keywords…
repeatedly? This is nothing short of annoying and it gives me pause and concern about the ecosystem. Is the plan to lock down programmer’s capabilities, knowledge and tools?
I’m involved in the TAP program for Windows 10 and have voiced concerns in the same category with regard to installation and deployment of Universal Apps. Security is not a reasonable excuse. Some of us love to program and actually
control their PCs. We are not planning to sell everything we write on the Windows Store. What happened to programming something cool for your home network or just for friends? We need, and used to have, Microsoft’s support in doing
this sort of thing. Documentation and tools are more important now than ever. I’m saddened to see the direction things are heading…
If there is a sane reason I’m being badgered to ‘log in’ to read .NET documentation every hour, please share. If not, please consider lobbying to get things back on track.
Thanks

PLEASE HELP- flashing question mark in folder

Hi everyone,
last night I was just on my macbook as usual and suddenly it froze, so I turned it off. When i went to turn it back on, all that appeared was a flashing question mark in a folder.
I have tried all the suggestions on this page http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58042 , but none of them worked because it didn't even recognise/find the harddrive in the disk utility section. I don't have apple care ($419 is a lot of money for a student!) but I only bought the macbook about 6 months ago, so it is still within warranty. What should I do now?
Any help is much much appreciated!
Melissa

Melissa,
I just had the same exact problem last night too. I called the apple technical service number and nothing they did helped because the hard drive wasn't found. I even got a fire wire cable and tried to hook my MacBook up to another Mac and tried the target disk mode hoping I could pull off data that I needed, but the other mac couldn't find the disk either. I'm kind of worried about losing some of my data. If you could let me know if you find any solution that would be awesome! I plan on going to the apple store this weekend to get it looked at.

IN DESPERATE NEED FOR HELP flashing question mark appears MacBook

Hello everyone, I got this White MacBook Mac OS X 10.4.11 yesturday I was updating limewire and iTunes, I was downloading some songs from Limewire when all of a sudden my macbook frozed. I was not able to do a thing. Not even minimizing nor quiting the app nor even opening another aplication, so I decided to shut it down by holding the power button until it shut down (about 8 secs). So I restart my macbook and I got this grey=blank screen whit a flashing question mark on it. I've tried EVERYTHING on this link http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440?viewlocale=en_US even these one http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1533 and all I was able to accomplish, was to hold the mouse (/trackpad) button to eject a Cd, and while pressing Shift during startup (in order to start in Safe Boot mode) all I get is this lock image and this space to type a password. I've tried typing every password I know and I can't fix my macbook. Can anyone please help me out on this one?

It means certain system files needed for startup are corrupted. You will have to reinstall OS X. If your hard drive is unaffected you can try the following:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

Multiclip questions in Final Cut Pro 6

OK, so far I have did multiclip with HD QT movies. When I do it, it does not show them playing together in the canvas when set the sync option to open. It only shows the active angle, when I press pause it shows both angles.
I have not experimented with regular SD yet. Is this a problem that can be resolved or is it a computer speed issue.
I have a 15 inch macbook pro, 2.2 ghz, 2 gigs of rams. It is one of the newer models.

I had a hard time with it the other day and I basically started over to fix it.
Mark the in point or out point on all the clips in the browser if not using the same timecodes.
Select all the clips in the browser, got to MODIFY>MAKE MULTICLIP.
Open the new created clip in the broswer. All videos should play in the same viewer without using the Synch to OPEN.
If it doesn't work, make sure your upgraded to 6.0.1 + OS 10.9.10.
If it still don't work:
Try decreasing the frame rate and quality playback to see if that helps. If that works, then it could be the processing power. (Click the RT button in the timeline)
You can export the HD files as an SD file for a test.
Hope this helps.

The answer to (1) is yes. for OSX, there hasn't yet been a full-number release (they're all v10). Point releases come out every couple years or so, and usually cost about $130. So if you had 10.4 and wanted to upgrade to 10.5, you'd have to buy it. But updated numbers after the second point are free. So if you have 10.5, then 10.5.5 is a free download.
Question (2) I'm less sure about, but I would guess that all of those games would probably work. They don't list the particular video card in the Macbook as "Supported", but it's newer than the cards listed. All the other requirements are met.
From the requirements listed, I would guess that "medal of honor war chest" is a PPC game, which means it will probably run on the Intel Macbook, but under emulation. I think usually the newer Intels are fast enough that running PPC stuff under emulation should be fine, but I don't do much of that so I can't speak from experience.
I sometimes install Windows on a second partition on my Macs so I can dual boot, just for games. So there's that option too.

Need help with question about Microsoft Excel?

I have recently begun using Microsoft Office for Mac. My question is related to the Excel program. I have used this for years on a PC where when the program opens, it shows a Workbook with a single page. However, on the Mac, when it opens, it shows many pages, the first going from column A to G, the second going from H to N, etc. and each page with the text "Click to add data". This continues forever. I would like to have just one sheet as on the PC. I have not found a way to limit this view to a single page. I have looked in the Preferences and in "View", but nothing seems to change the configuration. Any suggestions?
Thanks

My zoom only shows the magnification and does not give a "one page" option. However, I did find an icon that I loaded into the menu bar which gives the one page view. This may be due to the version 2004 that I am using.
I also find that if I want to change the number of columns and rows, I change the size of each. I assume this is correct.
Thanks for the help. This is slightly different that the PC version, but I am sure over time, there will be no problem.

HELP Difficult question Re: 2 iPhones and an iPod......

Hi. I have an iPhone 4s with iTunes on my computer for years. My daughter has an iPod that was originally set up on her father's computer and with her own AppleID. I just got her an iPhone and want to transfer/sync all her info from the iPod to the iPhone. However, when I connect her phone to my computer it connects to my iTunes account. Even if I sign out and sign back in as her it is still my music shown in the library.
I backed up her iPod to my computer and rstored it to her iPhone. Everything showed up EXCEPT the music. It can be found in iTunes, purchases, music.....but NOT in the music folder on the phone.
Lastly, I would like to maintain our seperate AppleID's but be able to share music we purchase since I am ultimately purchasing all the music anyway.
Here are my questions.....
1) Why am I not seeing her music list when I sign into iTunes as her on my computer? How can I get to her music list?
2) How can I get her music list to show up in the music folder on her iPhone?
3) How can we sign in seperately and see our accounts individually going forward?
4) How can we share music purchased between the 2 AppleID accounts?
Thank you for your help!

Need help - Ethernet question for DSL

Hi, hoping someone can help me. We are looking into getting Verizon DSL internet, and don't know if we have the Ethernet specifications. We have a flat screen 17" iMac 1Ghz, Dh said he knows we have an ethernet connection but doesn't know about the card. What Verizon says we need is a "10-Base-T Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC)". How would I find out if we have this? (We are not eligible for the 24hr online chat support and I don't want to pay $49+ for one question)! Thanks,
Erica

Tom & Erica,
You should have very little trouble connecting with Verizon. I have multiple Verizon accounts and they have always been very helpful in getting you set up, even if they need to come out to test/adjust the line-in to your home. You will get a package from them which will include DSL modem, filters, cables and so on.
Don't hesitate to call them for help in setting it up - BUT, tell them at your first opportunity that you are running on a Mac. They will switch you immediately to a Mac person who can walk you thru just about any OS configuration.
And no I don't work for Verizon...Just Kidding
GOOD LUCK
John
Oh, of course you will want to call Verizon and have them test the line prior to/or at the time of your order. They can do that while you are on the line with them and at no charge.

Help Desk question ...

Hi... Am planning on taking the "mac os x help desk essentials" exam in a few weeks and would like some help in answering this question.
Q. 'You work as a support technician at ITworld.com. A IT world user complains that her Mac is exhibiting system problems. You tell the user to reboot her Mac in Firewire Target Disk Mode. You now want to troubleshoot the users Mac from your own Macintosh. Which of the following tasks will you be able to perform from your own Macintosh? (choose two):
a. Run repair disk from disk utility
b. Run repair disk permissions from disk utility
c. Partition drive (non-destructive) from disk utility
d. Run secure erase from disk utility to defragment the drive
e. Enable system administrator (root) login in Netinfo Manager
I know it's not "B" since Repair permissions can only be executed on the startup volume. The Repair permissions is dependant upon the Bill of Material (BOM) receipt file located in \Library\Receipts.
looking forward to some response. thanks

a. Run repair disk from disk utility
I think this would be my first answer. You should be able to run disk repair if it's not mounted as a system disk.
b. Run repair disk permissions from disk utility
Apparently you can run repair permissions from a boot CD on 10.4. So why not from target mode?
c. Partition drive (non-destructive) from disk
utility
This is tricky. In the past, partitioning the drive WAS a destructive operation. But doesn't Bootcamp now allow non-destructive partitioning? I don't see how this would solve ther user's problem though. But should be doable from Disk Utility.
d. Run secure erase from disk utility to defragment
the drive
Well, technically, I suppose secure erase would effectively defragment a disk. Might not be working at ITworld.com for much longer, though.
e. Enable system administrator (root) login in
Netinfo Manager
Uh, no.
