ACR import window position

Hi - when I open ACR from Bridge the import window showing the selected file(s) opens as it should. My windows XP pro and PSCS3 are working for a good while already without problems. Starting a few days ago all the sudden this ACR window will open on my secondary monitor not on my primary monitor where it used to open.
I was able to drag this window (always set to reduced window size) to the primary monitor but the setting apparently did not get stored and the next time I opened the window it was at the secondary monitor again. After a few times now the window even is locked in the full frame setting (or slightly larger placing the minimize and reduce buttons outside the monitor) and I can no longer reduce the window and move it.
Unfortunate because I only have the primary monitor calibrated.
Can I set or reset preferences for the position of the ACR window? I searched but did not find the settings. Bug or feature? :-P

I use Bridge in partial window mode (not maximized, but covering almost all the monitor area of both monitors). I have it set up that I see the thumbnails of one selected folder in the right secondary screen and the detailed view of a selected image together with "explorer like" ("folders" and "metadata") overview of folders in the left primary display.
When I open Camera Raw by double click on one image it opens ACR 4.41. It now covers the entire secondary monitor. It looks like full screen mode except it seems too large, just clipping the buttons on the right top to toggle full screen and reduced screen. I cannot grab the top of the ACR window to move it. ACR works fine I can use all settings.

Import Window Problems in 10.0.6

I am new to FCPX (12 days remaining in my 30 day trial) and I have an issue with the Import Window. When I click on a clip in the Import list, I do NOT get any image to appear above the playbar and if I press play, FCPX will freeze 100% of the time. If I do not try to play the media before import, I can add the media to an event without any issue and otherwise the application seems to work great.
This happens on two separate computers (one runs 10.7 and the other 10.8)
Neith computer has had FCPX installed previously
Happens regardless of media format, I've tried H.264 and ProRes files
Any suggestion appreciated.

If you updated FCPX .0.6 over 0.5, you might be experiencing some weirdness. The best practices from Apple, I believe, was incomplete.
Try deleting preferences first (and I almost never recommend this! http://digitalrebellion.com/prefman) I had to do a complete "fresh" re-install after completely deleting any traces of FCPX. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5149)
For your first issue: the Basic Cross Dissolve is in the Effects browser under Dissolves. Just position the playhead either at the cut (up down arrows will position at cut edges) or over a clip (and the transition will be added at the front and back ends) or select several clips in the storyline -- and double click on the cross dissolve transition in the browser to add them. [Getting used to typing Command T is probably marginally easier -- plus, now you can set your choice of default transition by right clicking on any transition in the browser and selecting Make Default from the popup.]
The Add Cross Dissolve is still available with right click ON A GAP... go figure... By all means -- send Apple some feedback!
I am not experiencing your second problem. A basic transition from Basic text to a clip is smooth.

Window Position & Prefs "Gone"

Every time I start up or restart, any window position, size, view etc info is gone, and I get a view very different than what I had set. I have tried to delete the Finder plist, but it did not help. I did notice something extremely weird as well.
I noticed that the Finder plist is actually deleting itself about every 30 - 60 seconds when I open the ~user Library prefs, and cannot find anything that might be causing this. Repairing permissions, running utilities such as DiskWarrior etc have not helped. This condition actually exists identically on two Macs I am using. The only thing in common is that I ran an updater for Missing Sync for BlackBerry from Mark/Space Software, and took note of the condition being created on the second Mac immediately after doing this update.
I don't really want to do a full reinstall of the System, as I suspect I will still end up with this "condition" after reinstalling my working applications.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A bit of troubleshooting .....
On a full restart, any windows left open will retain their position, view, etc - but closed windows "forget" when reopened.
During the safe boots, files were sent to the Trash, which are as follows:
In a folder called 501.245359984
and a folder called 501.245361007
annex_aux
annex.db
filetoken.db
FondResourceCache (only in the first folder above)
fonts.db
Local.fcache
qdfams.db
System.fcache
User.fcache
My startup items under my account are
iTunesHelper
Microsoft AU Daemon
iKey
MicrosoftMouseHelper
MicrosoftKeyboardHelper
Dashboard KickStart
EEventManager
iCalAlarmScheduler
textsoapHelper
Epson Scanner Monitor
All of these items were already in place - for a long time - before this problem started.
I cannot find /private in order to locate /private/var/run/StartupItems
Nothing unusual (at least that I can see) in either of the other two locations.

I'm trying to import some Hi8 into FCPX via a Canon GL2. Although the footage shows up in the import window, it says "Camera not controllable". The manual import button does activate, but footage is not actually being imported. Any ideas? Thanks

What Tom said.
Or you may be able to import using a different program - try with Quicktime Player, "New Movie Recording". If the camera appears as an option, it should work.

Preview of CR2 raw files on import window from camera

Hi
I have this problem with my Canon XTI. When I connect the camera to the computer and open the import dialog window, I can not see the previews of my CR2 raw files. But if I copy the CR2 files to he hard disk and try tho import from it, then previews are shown on the import window.
Can anybody help me?

Probably because the program is trying to write back a marker to the card as it "opens" the images for the preview and the camera won't let it.
It's not a good idea to import images directly from the camera anyway. Card readers are really cheap - and they WILL let you see the previews.

External displays - browser window position when disconnected display

I'm using a laptop, connecting one or two external displays, - one using the HDMI port, second using an USB "dock station" (Toshiba standalone). Second screen normally to the right, third screen (usb) above the laptop screen.
Often when I have disconnected the USB external display, my Firefox browser window are still "on the third display" - position as if this display was still active.
Even if I quit Firefox and restarts ( or even restarts windows ) the same position window is retained. The only way to fix it (when the USB connected display is not available), is to change the window position of the second (HDMI) display to cover the area of the USB one, then move Firefox window to my main laptop display, and then reposition the second screen back to the normal.
Normally, I expect applications to automatically reposition the windows to the available display(s) under the conditions that an extra display is removed. However, this seems not to happen with Firefox. It's inconvinient, but possible to fix with the second screen available, but I'm lost when I am not able to connect an external display ...
Is there any solution to this? Is it possible to change (reset) window positions directly in RegEdit ??

Dear varkgirl:
Thank you very much for your help and valuable suggestion.
I've tried your suggestion but ran into some problems. The links I am trying to open in another window are actually PDF files that the viewer can download from my website.
Since I was having problems I decided to try something else. After publishing the website to my desktop I then opened the pages where the links are in Dreamweaver. The layout view is great and displayed the image just the way it appears on the browser's window. I first selected the "link button" to the file and then in the inspector windows (bottom of the page) I chose under target the "_blank" option. This tells the software that the linked page or file is to be opened in a new blank browser window. I then saved the page (re-saved it over the existing file) to incorporate the changes. After this I proceeded to navigate through the website and everything works great.
Thank you for your help and suggestions. I just thought I would post this here in case it may be of help to you as well as others.
Best regards,

IMovie '13: Import window does not open

I can't get the Import Window to open. (Sure it worked the first time I tried)
Anyone with same problem?
Anyone with a possible solution?
No matter if I press Import in the toolbar or use the menu (cmd I) the main window will dim, but the overlaying Import Window will not open.
After that I can only quit the program. I can drag and drop movie files without problems.
The only way the Import Window will open is to attach my camera. The Import Window will open automatically when iMovie sees the drive.
I have tried to re-install iMovie and deleted preference files, but with no succes so far.

I managed to locate the problem
I have an Elgato EyeTV 610. It is an old DVB-C TV Tuner hooked up on Firewire.
When I remove the EyeTV 610 from the Firewireport it works fine.
As mentioned in my first posting I was able to have the import window pop up by attaching my camera.
The workaround also works when pluggin in my iPhone (Import window pops up automatically)

Attached is a screen shot of the import window
thanks for your help,

Remembering windows positions when switching from/to dual screen display

Hello,
Most of the time, a second LCD screen is plugged in my Macbook and configured as the main display. When I arrange the windows, I keep iTunes or my mail application maximized on the macbook screen and use the bigger external screen for all other windows.
If I unplug the external display, all the windows are of course moved to the laptop display. When I plug again the external screen, all the windows are moved to the external display. But I would like the iTunes and mail application to remain on the laptop screen.
Is there any utility to remember the windows positions and arrange them automatically when I switch from/to single/dual-screen display?
Regards,
Raph

Would DisplayWatcher do what you want? I came across this a couple of weeks ago but haven't had the chance to try it out yet.

Aperture Import window

With the Aperture import window open and a memory card in a reader, I have at top left two option. One is the select the computer itself as the source and the other is the memory card. If I select the computer, at the bottom of the window I get pane listing the various harddrives and all there subdirectories, but when I choose the memory card, this pane is no longer vailable. Is it possible to have this pane display so that I can see the folders on the meory card?
I ask this because when a photographer is covering multiple rings at an event, it is faster to seperate the images inot their respective rings by choosing which folder to put them in than it is to change the file name which os what we currently. I provide staff with Nikon cameras at some events and if they are not familiar with Nikon, they struggle with the filename changing in a hurry, but selecting pre-made folders is easy.

Is it possible to have this pane display so that I can see the folders on the meory card?
No, you cannot show the memory card in the file chooser - I tried several things, like linking it to the Desktop, but aperture hides it.
You could open the memery card however in the Finder; it will show on Desktop as an external disk, and then import by dragging from the Finder. Bt this way you will not be able to use Import presets directly while importing.
Your only option would be to copy your folders on the card to backup folders on your hard drive and then import from there. This folder you will see in Aperture in the file chooser window at the bottom.

Exclude stills in import window Final Cut Pro X

I export from a memory card removed from my camera which I use for both still RAW images and videos. Ther are always way more stills than videos and I would like a way to have the import window show only the videos. I use Aperture to import the still images.
I suspect there is a simple setting somewhere to achieve that, but I haven't found it yet.
Thanks for any guidance.

In the Import window, switch to list view and in the columns click on File Type

Final cut x import window freezes

Import from camera works, but FCP import window freezes. 6-core Mac Pro, plenty of RAM, fast drives, worked before.

mini DV--Actually the media DOES import into event, but the import window freezes until the import has completed. Shows a rough version (blocky) of the first frame, then the last frame after import is complete. LCD window on camera keeps rolling along. I've imported lots of footage, but have never seen this before.

Auto-remember window positions switching from laptop to external screens

Does anybody know of any utilities available that will automatically remember my app window positions when switching from laptop to external screens?

'Stay' looks like the best solution found so far but it is not automatic Any more ideas are welcome!

How do I get iPhone photos to re-appear in "Import" window? I had "Automatically Import" turned on in Aperture prefs.

How do I get photos to re-appear in the "Import" window? I had "Automatically Import" turned on in Aperture prefs. Now I cannot see the photos in my import dialog that are still on my phone. I normally import without Photostream into specific folders on a NAS drives and with specific folder and file-naming details. I then have Aperature delete those photos as I import them.
How do I "revert" to having Aperature "forget" that I accidentally had "Import Automatically" turned on?
I tried deleting images from the PhotoStream import folder, closing Aperature, disconnecting phone, and then try to re-import.

When I turned off "Ignore Duplicates" in the Import dialog, then the photos that have already been imported into the Photostream library but are still on my phone reappeared as available to import into another Aperture Library as well as the correct folder structure on my NAS drive.
