Alpha Channel Settings keep reverting back to "Ignore"

Hey All,
Just diving into FCPX and I had a question about the alpha channel. After finding the Alpha setting in the inspector, I switched to it premultiply. However, upon clicking out of it, the inspector reverts back to "ignore alpha." It does this whether I change the clip in teh Project or the Library. The title animation I'm using was exported from after effects with the animation preset.
Is there a reason why it keeps reverting back to the ignore alpha setting?
Thanks

The computer may require a reset of the +system management controller...+
• Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
There had been a reset method in prior models of PPC powerbooks, etc
that worked by putting your palm/hand flat over the trackpad for a few
seconds, then moving it one direction in one pass. However, that seems
to not be suggested in remedies to resolve Intel-based trackpad issues.
Hopefully the SMC reset will help.
Good luck & happy computing!

    Do you mean that all changes you made to your files are lost, or do you mean that changes to your preferences are lost? For example, pick any small file, make a copy of it, and put the copy on your Desktop. After rebooting, is the copy still there?

  • My APPLE ID is NOT working properly. I am frustrated beyond belief I have tried time and time again to change my apple ID and it keeps reverting back to my original ID!! I even set up a new email to try to submit a new id and it still does not work

    My APPLE ID is NOT working properly. I am frustrated beyond belief I have tried time and time again to change my apple ID and it keeps reverting back to my original ID!! I even set up a new email to try to submit a new id and it still does not work

    To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
    In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
    Enter the email address you want to use, then  click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that  address.
    Open the  email  from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
    When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
    After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your  Apple ID.

  • Printer Queue Settings Mysteriously Reverting Back to Default Settings on 2008 R2 print servers

    Printer Queue Settings Mysteriously Reverting Back to Default Settings on 2008 R2 print servers
    We have 4 Windows Server 2008 R2 print servers, all of which has the same printer queues installed on them that are utilized by a 3rd party printing program that does a round-robin load balancing scheme.  
    All printers are a combination of HP and Xerox all running some variation of the HP UPD and the Xerox UPD.  Some use the PCL 5 and some use the PCL 6 version determined by age of printer and need.  
    There are typically two printer queues for each physical printer.  
    Example:
    LOCATION_ROOM
    LOCATION_ROOM_TRAY2
    The regular queue is ok being left with default setting,
    The _TRAY2 queues are set to print to "labels" or "pre-printed" paper type or a specific tray.
    From time to time, these _TRAY2 queues will revert back to a factory default state and lose the setting to print to a specific paper type or tray.  Sometimes it happens to the _TRAY2 queue on all 4 servers, sometimes just 1 server, etc.  No rhyme
    or reason.
    Disabled Bi-directional options on both the HP and Xerox UPDs per another article on the internet that said bi-directional could cause the printer to send back settings to the driver and cause this issue.  Even with this option off, we continue to see
    printer _TRAY2 queue settings revert back to factory default and lose their specific paper and tray settings.  We have ruled out the possibility that users or other technicians are the ones making these changes so we suspect it is some interaction between
    the servers, printer drivers and printers themselves causing the issue.  
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    I'd start by using one of the print drivers included in Windows for a few of the printers and confirm it's the universal driver that is causing the issue.
    HP installs some other processes and services on the machine which communicate with the HP devices. 
    PML and something else.  You might want to shut those down and see if these processes are the ones modifying the settings.
    Run process monitor to truly identify which processes is causing the modifications.

  • My Adobe programs keep reverting back to CC instead of 2014.

    My Adobe programs keep reverting back to CC instead of 2014. I have tried restarting my computer as well as uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. InDesign won't install at all but it doesn't give me an error code, it just says "Installation Error."

    Is this about internet shortcuts on the desktop or bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar?

  • Changing "Reel" number keeps reverting back to old number.

    I have a situation where I changed the reel number on about 75 tapes that I have. After changing the #'s, I noticed that about 65 of the changes kept and about 10 keep reverting back to what they were before I changed them. Any ideas on why this is happening? As an example, I had the tapes numbered as: 1001, 1002, 1003, etc but decided to be more specific with my tape labeling and changed them all to HT1_1001, HT1_1002, HT1_1003, etc. All the changes stuck except for a select few. I've even tried dragging the source quicktime file (which is labeled correctly) back into the project...to no avail.

    I don't think I would have thought of that, assuming your capture scratch was all on one drive. Thanks for posting your solution, hardly anyone ever does that around here.

  • I am having trouble removing/changing my iphone id. It keeps reverting back to my partners id any help would be appreciated.

    I am having trouble removing/changing my iphone id. It keeps reverting back to its previous id. How can I fix this problem?

    Jgreg14 you have my sympathies. 36 hours ago while using my iPad I was told that my Apple ID had been disabled. Like you I went to the forums, reset my password, and also like you, nothing changed. I have contacted iTunes support and after 24 hours they responded with this:
    Cesar here from the iTunes Store Support Team. Your inquiry is very important to me, so I have requested assistance with the issue you reported. You will receive an email after the matter has been investigated and further information is available.
    Thank you for your patience. Apple wants your iTunes experience to be as enjoyable as possible. Take care!
    Boy do I feel special. I sat on the phone to the UK helpline for 30 minutes, and have been told my case has been elevated to "URGENT".
    Basically I was wondering if you ever got your problem sorted out?

  • Since transfering to a new PC (Windows 8) all my Bookmarks & options settings keep reverting to the initial "Defaults" whenever I restart

    Since transferring to a new PC (Windows 8) all my Bookmarks & options settings keep reverting to the initial "Defaults" whenever I restart.
    This affects all my Bookmarks; Menu Bar settings; Add-on settings; history; Home Page et al
    In fact everything

    What files did you transfer to the new computer?
    It sounds that there is a problem with the file that stores the preferences.
    Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

  • HT3529 My icloud account keeps reverting back to my old account on my iPhone?

    Why does my newly created Apple iCloud account keep reverting back to my old account, which happens to be my ex husbands email?

    Sign out of the account on the device and sign in with the new account.
    Just keep in mind that purchases and content are permanently tied to the account they were acquired with.

    I am also experiencing this issue.  I have tried modifying the Data Source credentials directly from the data source configuration on our SSRS web site.  I have also tried changing it from the CM12 Console under the Reporting services
    point, specifically the Reporting Services Point Account.  No matter how many times I change it, it will revert back to an account we don't want it conifigured for any longer.
    Mucking around in the registry, I found the following keys that seem to reference the configuration:
    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SMS\SRSRP
    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SMS\SRSRP\Datasource
    It appears as though the Datasource key contains the configuration under two String Values:
    Reserved 1 = User name
    Reserved 2 = guessing encrypted hash of password
    Doesn't seem like it is even an option to change the configuration here, but at least this is some more info.
    Any help on this would be great... until then, I will keep digging.

  • Sorting keeps reverting back

    Hi guys
    I'm quite particularly about how I catalogue my music on iTunes so I always edit the song Info tab and use the Sorting tab's function, but it keeps reverting itself back.
    First of all the edits made to a song's Info will revert to whatever it was downloaded as and sync this incorrect details to my iPod without me realising, this is quite easily sorted by going to a song's Info and it will just revert on it's own, I can easily work my way through all the songs by clicking on Next repeatedly. It's still a bit annoying though.
    This also affects what's under the Sorting tab, reverted back to the details that came with the file when I downloaded it. Unlike the changes made to the Info tab this doesn't undo itself by opening the Get Info screen - I have to work through all the songs again.
    It does this every few days and is a bit annoying when you're as anal as I am about having this properly catalogued and categorised. Does anyone know why it might it might be reverting it's Info and Sorting details back?
    Many thanks
    Steve

    Go to iTunes > Preferences > Store and turn off
    Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
    Share details about your library with Apple
    On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
    Show All Music
    Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.

  • All of a sudden, keeps reverting back to Edge from my Wifi connection

    My iphone connected to my home's wifi router no problem until yesterday. Now, I will manually have to select 'linksys' in the Wifi settings. It will work as long as I use it, but if I leave the phone dormant for a few minutes it reverts back to Edge.
    Yesterday, I was driving along a road and it asked me to join a linksys network I was passing. I told it not to. Does it have that network confused with mine? If so, what can I do to reset it and make sure it automatically joins mine from now on?

    It shouldn't be required to manually select a wireless network that you were successfully connected to previously unless something has changed with that wireless network.
    Try a general iPhone reset first - press and hold the Home key and Sleep/Wake or On/Off key simultaneously until you see the white Apple logo and then release. This can take up to 10 seconds so ignore the slide to turn off prompt during this time.
    If no change and there are no problems with your router - I would try resetting the router and modem to confirm.
    Shut down/turn off all computers and devices connected to your wireless network including the iPhone. Turn off or unplug your router and then turn off or unplug the modem. Wait a few minutes and then reverse the process. Turn on the modem and wait until the modem is completely reset. Turn on the router and wait until the router is completely reset with the modem and then turn on your iPhone and computer or computers connected to this network.
    No change after doing so, you can try forgetting the network settings on the iPhone.
    Settings > WiFi. Select your wireless network - blue button with right facing > and select Forget this Network.
    Then connect again entering your wireless network password.
    FYI - it is a good idea and recommended by security experts to change the default name of the wireless network from "linksys" to the name of choice.

  • My browser.newtab.url keeps reverting back when i change it

    I want to open all my new tabs as my google homepage but when I alter the browser.newtab.url to www.google.com it reverts back to what it was before every time I close firefox.
    Can anybody help me??

    When you exit Firefox, your updated preferences should be saved, but there are some possible reasons for this to fail or be ignored. Our support article "[[How to fix preferences that won't save]]" describes how to investigate most of them.
    ''If the bad new tab page is associated with an add-on or other software you removed, it's possible that some of the unwanted software was left behind. Let us know, in that case, we can provide additional suggestions for cleanup.''
    One other problem users have reported is with utility programs such as Advanced SystemCare with features to protect against unwanted browser settings changes. They basically roll back all changes, wanted or not. If you use that tool or other software with a home page protection or browsing protection setting, you may need to disable that until after you've got Firefox working the way you want it.
