Problem Moving Project from One Machine to Another

Hi.
I teach in the school of communication at a university. Tonight, I tried to share a FCP project with my students in a lab setting. I wanted them to continue to edit what I had started.
I gave each of them the FCP project folder on a thumb drive. They downloaded the folder to their desktop.
When they launched the project they got the "Media Offline" window. There is only one file, a WAV file, in the project, so it was easy to find and reconnect.
The problem was that each of them got an error message about the "Media Start and End."
I had cut the single WAV file into a much shorter edit, and all those edits went all screwy, I believe due to this error. For instance, the WAV file is an interview, and I'd cut out the interviewer's questions, leaving only the subject's replies. But when my students opened the project, the edits I'd made included the interviewer's questions, left out some of the subject's answers, etc.
I'd really appreciate any input on what I need to do in order for a project to open on a student's computer exactly as I have saved it on my computer(s).
Thanks very much.

Go back to your original project file. Give the original media a *Reel Name*.
Use Media Manager (in the File menu bar item) to consolidate a linked copy of the media and its project file to a folder of your choosing.
Detailed information on using Media Manager can be found in the FCP User Manual.

  • Problem moving mail from one computer to another...

    Hello.
    I'm trying to move a specific mailbox from one computer to another computer. I'm doing this to 2 pairs of machines and with the first pair I had no issues. But, then second pair I get errors.
    On the first computer I just copied the .mbox folder (which contains the sub "Messages" folder & info.plist file) from the one computer to the other. Then, in mail.app I "import" the messages via the Import option (importing mail from Mac OS X). No problem and all messages are imported.
    On the second pair of computers, I did the same thing, but when I try and Import the messages onto the second machine, it says it can't find any OS X mail messages to import.
    I really need to get these messages from one machine to another. "Forwarding" or "Redirecting" all the messages from one machine to another isn't an option.
    Can anyone suggest what might be wrong, or another way of migrating the single folder of messages (not the entire account) from one machine to another?
    Thanks,
    Kristin.

    Hi Kristin,
    I stay away from mbox files because it has never worked for me, but I may have a solution. This may not be THE award winning answer, but you could consider it when the other options don't work:
    I assume you want to import a mailbox that is NOT part of an IMAP account, because otherwise you would not have this problem (right?) (otherwise just open that IMAP account on the computer you want the messages on).
    But if you have an IMAP account, besides the POP account that contains the mailbox in question, you can use that account to fix your problem:
    Go to the compu that has the desired mailbox, make a new folder in the IMAP account called 'backup' or whatever. Copy all messages from the desired mailbox to that new IMAP folder (depending on size this may take a while, because you are uploading via your internet connection). Now go to the other compu, make a new 'local folder' in mail.app. Open the IMAP account in mail.app and open the 'back up folder'. Now copy all messages to the new, local folder.
    If you don't have an IMAP account, you can always open a free one with gmail.
    I know, it's not very elegant, but this will work guaranteed.
    Good luck,

  • Moving project from one VSO to another VSO and transferring ownership

    Hello,
    I want to understand if we can move a project from VSO owned by one company to VSO owned by other company.
    also is there any risk of moving and any data would be lost?
    Is there any procedure that i need to follow and take care
    Kindly assit.
    Regards

    Hi Abhijeet,
    If you want to move team project from one VSO account to another VSO account, then you can use the tools that Vishal mentioned above. If you want to move Visual Studio projects under team projects to another VSO account, then you can unbind Visual Studio
    to source control and add to team project in another VSO account.
    For changing the VSO account ownership, you can check this
    page for more details.

  • Trouble moving projects from one computer to another

    In the prospect of clearing up space, I am moving projects from my hard drive to an external.  In order to make sure things are moving properly I open up a project from the external onto another computer, different from the one I moved the projects off of.  When I open up the project, part of the original footage (.MTS file) does not show up in the timeline.  The blue rectangle that represents the footage is striped.  When I open up the exact same project onto the original computer from the external everything is fine.
    Also, when I was opening up a project from the external to the other computer the "Locate Media" pop up appears wanting me to link all the media, but all the media has been checked off, as if all the media has already been found.  Why does it do this?
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Hi Josh,
    Check this out: Moving projects to another computer: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS1BF3BAAB-A930-44e3-8DFA-50D5C58A1A1Aa.h tml#WS3D22F379-B6C7-4d8c-9548-26AA3E1EA74F
    Likely you have some of the MTS file structure missing. The best way to move projects, IMHO, is to use the Project Manager.
    Thanks,

  • Moving Database From One Machine to Another

    Hello all,
    I'm a complete noob to oracle. I have a few questions before I can start working with oracle.
    1. If I develop a database on one machine(e.g. at home), how do I move/copy the database to some other machine (e.g. work).
    2. If I develop the front end using Oracle Forms/Reports. How can I deploy the Forms/Reports to the clients, so that the clients may be able to enter data and view reports using the database on the server (LAN environment). Do I only need to install forms Runtime on the clients and keep a copy of all the .fmx files there (if that is the solution, how would the forms connect to the database that is stored on the server)?
    THanks for any help in advance.
    Faheem.

    Ad. 1 - If you are developing some parts of database in home and some parts in
    the office read about import (imp) export(exp) utilities in Oracle they can be handy for
    you.

  • Moving Multitake Project From one Machine to Another?

    Hello all,
    I just finished a multitake session of ADR on my Macbook Pro. I want to do the hardcore review and editing/mixing of the session on my Mac Pro. I tried moving the project file as well as the contents of the "Edited Media", "Recordings" and "Temporary Files" (found in the "Documents" folder) to the Mac Pro, but STP keeps crashing. I can open the session fine on the laptop.
    Is there something I missed in the move? I moved everything to the same/correct folders on the Mac Pro and both machines are running STP version 2.0.2.
    FYI: The laptop is running 10.5.6, but the Mac Pro (for arcane reasons I won't bore you with) is currently at 10.4.11.
    Any ideas or advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!
    Best,
    Patrick

    Hello MacEnstien
    I read your response to the previous question. And I have a similar problem. When I did the "Save As" I collected the files. Dropped them onto my external drive and dumped them on my laptop. And on my laptop when I open the project everything works but I can't see the video clip? What should I do?

  • Problem moving photos from one comp to another in LR 4

    I am having a problem with moving my photos from a MacBook Pro to a PC laptop.  All the files reside in one directory on an external drive.  I copied the catalog from the Mac to the PC, connected the drive, started LR and pointed to the copied catalog.  As expected, LR did not know where the files from the external drive were, so I highlighted the drive, right clicked the photo directory and told it to find missing files.  I then pointed it to the proper directory on the drive.  It only partially worked.  Several of the subdirectories on the drive did not relink.  If I take the drive off the PC and put it back on the Mac, the subdirectories are properly linked, where on the PC, some aren't.
    I can reimport, but then I have to do edits all over again on those photos.  Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Are you sure that in the Mac to PC conversion of the actual folders, that perhaps some of the names folder didn't change?
    Can you compare the exact name of one of these folders on both computers?
    What happens if you try to right-click on the problem folders in Lightroom and select Find Missing Folder and then point just that specific folder in Lightroom to the proper folder on your PC?

  • Moving AD from one machine to another

    I have a virtual net work in VMWare consisting of a machine running AD, with its own domain, let's say MyDomain.local, and with several other servers and clients joined to the domain. The machine hosting AD is running server 2008 standard. What I want to
    do is to have a VM running Server 2012 R2 64 bit, as the DC. I cannot upgrade the Server 2008 VM since that one is 32 bit. I tried setting up a Server 2012 VM, installed AD on it, joined the domain, promoted to DC. All the AD objects, users, groups, machines,
    replicated to that new VM, as well as all the DNS entities. However when I try to use that new one by itself to log on to other VM's I get the no logon server not available message. I could create a new domain on the new VM, manually add the AD objects, then
    use that as the logon server. The problem with that is not only the amount of time it would take, but that the main purpose of the whole setup is to serve as the environment for SharePoint development, and I have a lot of service accounts that would have to
    be redone. As you can probably now tell I am not a network, or server, guy but a dev guy so am limited in what I can do with Server 2012.
    Any Ideas?

    Why can't you add additional DC to your existing AD?

  • Moving users from one machine to another

    I am trying to move users from a Solaris 2.6 box to a new Solaris 9 box. I tried moving /etc/passwd /etc/shadow and /etc/group to the new box, but when I try to login I get the following error in /var/adm/messages
    Mar 17 17:10:15 host.name sshd[1573]: [ID 800047 auth.error] error: Could not get shadow information for NOUSER
    I also tried running pwconv to make a new shadow file from the passwd file.. no good.
    How do I move these users to this new machine?

    You shouldn't really have overwritten the whole passwd / shadow / group files - did you back them up first?
    If so, reinstate them and then just copy the entries you require.
    You'll also need the home directories for each user - if they're all in the same place, eg /export/home then you could tar it up and copy it over....
    tar cvf /tmp/home.tar /export/home
    compress /tmp/home.tar
    copy /tmp/home.tar.Z to new box and untar it.

  • Moving Projects from One Computer to Another

    Is there a good way to do this?
    To be clear I mean the project, not a completed video

    To edit a project on another computer, you will need both the Project file and any event files that it references.
    You will need an external drive formatted Mac OS Extended (journaled) - not FAT32.
    Firewire and USB will both work fine for this.
    In iMovie, click VIEW/Group Events By Disk.
    Now you should see your external drive at the bottom of the Project Library List view. Hold down the Command Key while dragging the small icon for your project to the small icon for the external drive.
    Now, with the Project still selected, click FILE/CONSOLIDATE Media... and you can move over the Events, Music, and Photos for the project to the external drive as well.
    Plug this drive in to the other Mac and you are ready to edit.

  • Moving iTunes from one machine to another

    MY HARDWARE:
    OLD:  Apple iMac G4 1.25 GHz  300 GB HDD
    NOT SO OLD: Apple MacBook Pro 2.33 GHz Intel Core2Duo   500 GB HDD
    MY MAC SOFTWARE
    IMAC: MacOS 10.4.11,  iTunes 9.02
    MACBOOK PRO:  MacOS 10.6,  iTunes 10.6.1
    For years, I've put this off, but my iMac is getting long in tooth and I thought I would post a question here.
    I've used the iMac for a desktop workstation and family office file server since 2003. I've also used the iMac to run iTunes to feed an aging iPod. (ripping music from CDs, downloading video and audio podcast subscriptions and playing them on the iMac, etc.)
    My goal is to eventually replace the iMac, but I want to shift all the iTunes responsibilities to my MacBook Pro now.
    Is there a way to copy all the necessary files and folders over so that the MacBook Pro can pick up the music and podcast subscriptions without any hiccups or needs to re-establish links?
    NOTE: to date, I have never bought any music or movies from the iTunes Store.
    ALSO OF NOTE: I have backup copies of the Users folders on both machines on an external hard drive, if that helps.

    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
    Start iTunes.
    That is all you need to do.

  • Moving project from one Mac to another

    Hi,
    Sorry if this question has been asked before.
    I have a project on my MBA. All masters of this project is on an external HDD.
    I want to move this project to my iMac. I still want to retain the masters on the HDD.
    What's the best way to do it?
    Thanks in advance.
    -Kailas

    Well, this _should_ work.
    "File→Export Project as Library".  Do NOT consolidate Masters.
    "File→Import Project/Library".
    When your external drive is mounted on the second computer, Aperture should automatically connect the Images in the Project you copied to their correct Masters.
    Frank will send peckish pythons my way if this is not correct.
