Argh! Hit escape twice after capturing tape!!! Where did my footage go???

So yah... This has happened to be several time before...
As soon as I finish capturing the full tape, I hit escape to stop capture... Sometimes it looks like the program did not realize I hit escape, so I hit it again... That is when the window opens to save the capture, but the second time I hit escape cancels my save!
Now, I have to capture the whole tape again????
Does premiere keep all that footage in memory until I tell it to save the clip??? I highly doubt it, but I can't seem to find any reference to the footage I just captured on my scratch disk.
Any tips?
I am currently re-capturing 60 minutes of footage. :(
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Micky

Hi Jim!
Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate the tip.
I will use "Tape" for future captures.
I guess I just needed to vent here on the forums... I think I have done this 3 or 4 times before. :(
Also, as I was capturing the second time, I noticed the clip placed on the root level of my scratch disk... Just FYI for anyone else.
Again, thanks for the info and reply, I greatly appreciate your help!
Have a great day!
Cheers,
Micky

My Address book was wiped out after updating. Where did it go so I can get my addresses back?

I was cleaning up my Address book and the entire list disappeared. Where did it go? I can't find it.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

After the ActiveSync, where did it all go??

Model: Treo 700wx for Verizon
I just installed ActiveSync on my new laptop (Windows XP, SP3), and a trial version of MS Office 2007 just so I could, at least for 60 days, back up the Treo's information in an organized way. I purchased specifically a Windows Treo so that I could back up the text messages, as it supposedly saves them with the emails. Well, I hooked up the Treo, and pressed the button on the sync cable, and ActiveSync says it's backed up my Calendar, Email, Tasks, Notes, Favorites, and Files. But I can't find where the hell they went! I found my Treo's pictures on the computer, in a logical place, but I don't know where anything else went. My new MS Outlook has only empty folders. Where would I find this important data?
(I am aware that the Palm site has a download for a Windows Mobile Version 6.0 that's specifically designed to be compatable with Outlook 2007. But installing this would erase all the data on my Treo, which would be extremely counterproductive to my goal of backing it up.)
Can anybody help me here?
Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

I believe I installed Outlook before ActiveSync.
Outlook does not prompt me to select a user. I can't even find how to select a different user. All I see are empty folders.
When I first synced the device, I checked off all the categories I wanted to sync. It allowed me to do so for everything except email (notes, calendar, contacts, etc.). Email syncing had been already assigned to a previous computer, so I had to delete the old account for that computer; then I was able to select email syncing for this laptop. But in any case, I've synced with the cable several times since then, with no clue of where that info went.
To be clear, it's not that it doesn't back up text messages, but that I can't find ANYTHING it was supposed to sync except for pictures. When I tried on the previous computer, it did manage to sync everything except text messages/emails (albeit in a mislabeled, non-intuitive manner), but that was with Outlook Express which I am told does not have the full functionality required for the Treo with Windows Mobile.
I didn't set up any email accounts with Outlook because I want to use it exclusively with the Treo's info. I'd rather set up Thunderbird or something for my actual email.

I logged into my Acrobat account after months away -- where did my files go?

I use Acrobat for storage but haven't logged in for quite some time. Tonight I logged in, accepted the new terms and then gasped as all of my files but one are gone. What happened?

There are two storage spaces: Workspaces (old), and Files (new). Which one did you use?

IMac crashes after hitting escape in Capture

After I finish capturing a clip (using a Canon HV-30 camera) I hit escape and then immediately my mac crashes. I try to restore and the all the files in my browser have a red diagonal slash through them. Going to my scratch disk on my external drive I look inside of the Capture Scratch folder and most of the files are grayed out so the locate and choose button doesn't do any good. Two questions -- I have 4 GB of RAM but the machine still crashes -- is there a workaround to this? Second question -- what is the best way to restore from auto vault save? Thanks for any help.

What kind of external drive are you using?
The reconnect function only looks for one clip at a time. It is looking for an exact file name in your capture. What is the name of the file and where is it located?
Use the restore function in the File menu.

Final Cut Express Shuts down right after capturing

Hello all:
I am using FCE 3.5. I have used this for about a year now and I have developed a problem with FCE shutting down right after I hit escape. I run a lab for a university and it is doing it on ALL of them so it isn't an isolated incident. I repair permissions, reset the PRAM, trashed the prefs and I don't know what else to do.
I am running imac G5's using 10.4.11 and the new imacs running leopard. Both sets are doing it.
Any help would be appreciated since our classes start soon.
Thank you.

Can you tie the crashes to a recent event: a software update, a new piece of hardware? What else is connected to the computers?
(You have, of course, triple-checked that the FCE Easy Setup matches the footage you're capturing, yes?)
After the program crashes, is the captured footage saved?
What's the lab setup? Does each student have an individual user account? On each computer?
Lots of questions, I know...
Here's a suggestion:
Use Disk Utility to repair permissions. Create a new admin account on one computer. Set the FCE Scratch Disk to the internal drive. Disconnect everything but the camera. Try to capture. See what happens.

Crash everytime after capture

Hey Guys,
I have an issue here. Im knee deep in a intensive job, in which the client is changing the script everyday. Therefore, I have to keep re-recording the voice over. Just recently, after i record my VO from log and capture window, I hit escape and my computer either freezes, spinning beach ball of death or just restarts on its own. Any idea on what is goin on? I haven't updated to QT 7.4 yet either. Thanks!
Rhyno

I guess i could, but I have always done this, since before the VO tool became available. But do you have any idea on why this would all of a sudden be happening?

How do i set up my iPhone to chime when a new email arrives? right now, the chime only works after I tap the mail icon

How do I set up my 4S phone to chime when a new email arrives? Right now, the chime only sounds after I tap the mail icon. I need an alert to check my mail. Comcast mail. Settings for mail set at "fetch new data". Thank you

Try if this works for you
1. Tap Settings on Home Screen
2. Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars
3. Tap on Fetch New Data
4. Turn "Push" to On
5. Back to Mail, Contacts, Calendars again
6. Under "Advanced", make sure that it is set to "Push" for all your mail accounts
Push means the server will literally push the mails to your iPhone whenever there is new mail. Fetch like the word says is where you have to manually update to receive new mail (what you are doing now)

17" MacBook Pro freezes after Capture to external hard drive!!!!!! HELP!!

Ok, so i just got my new MacBook Pro and Final Cut Studio last week, and i was so excited, until this happened. I was trying to log and capture a clip to my 500GB LaCie Big Disk and everything seemed to be going fine until the clip got to the end of it's alloted time and then the computer just froze. When I closed the lid and let the laptop sleep and opened it again the clip is in place and everything seems fine. I tried capturing then w/ the LaCie plugged into the FW8oo port and my miniDV Deck plugged into the FW4oo, and it froze again after capture and then worked fine after closing the lid. Thinking I was crowding my Fire Wire bus I hooked up an external USB 2.0 drive and my deck to the fire wire , but the same thing happened. So then I tried capturing to my internal and it worked fine. I've captured to an external on my 17" iMac G5 w/ Final Cut HD for years and never had a problem. Any tips? This closing the lid thing just isn't going to work.
MacBook Pro 17" Mac OS X (10.4.6)

nope, david is right on the mark. powermacs with one firewire bus choke like this. i can't understand why apple continues to design with one firewire bus but i'm not a designer. anyone, ANYONE who uses firewire harddrives and firewire tape machines/cameras for editing NEEDS to invest in a seperate sort of firewire card (pick your flavor) and then we'd see this behavior go away. then there will be those that will whine "this never happened before!" it's happening now, firewire cards a cheap insurance against these issues.

After capturing SOME of my clips don't have audio sync

This particular problem is confusing me because it doesn't happen consistently.
The audio on the tape is fine. Sometimes while capturing a pop up window will appear that says "Analyzing Audio." I don't know how often this has happened because I use telecine logs to capture, and I don't watch the capture.
I did see it happen once though and that clip ended up being out of sync. The clips captured after were fine. So I think the "Analyzing Audio" thing is causing the problem. I've never seen this window before, so I don't know whats happening.
I am logging 1-2 reels a day, so the number of clips is piling up fast. I am noticing about 1 clip per reel when I am watching the clips in FCP.
I hope that's enough information for someone to help :\
Thanks

Anyone?

After using time machine my users folder cannot be seen, but all information is still intact. Where did it go?

After using time machine my users folder cannot be seen, but all information is still intact. Where did it go?

This is a new feature or bug if you want to call it that in OS X 10.9.3
Until Apple fixes this, here is a temporary work around.
Copy and paste the following command in the Terminal and then hit Enter, followed by your password.
sudo ln -s /Users /Users\ Folder; ln -s /Users/Shared /Users/Shared\ Folder
This will put a link to the Users folder called "Users Folder" on your Hard Drive and a link to the Shared folder called "Shared Folder" inside of the Users folder.

Audio out of sync in premiere pro cs6 after capturing

Hi, some of my footages are out of audio sync after capturing.
I have an imac with 3.4 Ghz intel i7 processor, 16gig ram, ssd card ( august 2012)
I have a sony hvr-z1 with tape.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Good morning Lynn,
I doubt this will help, but whenever I have issues importing tapes, I try
something else. I double check the software's manual because
sometimes, even if I have done the same thing several times, I add
or miss something. If that does not work I close the program and restart
the computer and camcorder and try again ... with a different tape. If
that doesn't work I use a different program. I use an old HP workstation
I paid $99 for on Ebay that's running XP and I capture with Scenalyzer.
Then I copy file to a USB drive and input to Premiere. Sorry, I figure the
problem is me, not the hardware or software and it usually is me because
when the next project comes along PP usally imports fine.

HT4191 All my notes on my iphone disappeared after synching yesterday. Where did they go?

I lost all my notes from my iPhone 4S after synching last night. Where did they go?

Hi..
If you have iCloud enabled, tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Notes off then back on then restart your iPhone.
Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off. After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.
