Background rendering when iMac is in standby mode

After I  have imported a video file from my Sony HDR Z1 FCP X starts to render in background mode, when I am using the iMac all is fine but if I leave it overnight and the iMac "goes" to sleep" the rendering also stops. Is there a way to stop this so I can leave the machine to complete what it is doing before it goes to sleep?

When the machine is asleep, it is asleep, period.
If you want to give it time to finish rendering before it goes to sleep, open System Preferences->Energy Saver,
click on the "Schedule..." button and set a time for it to go to sleep.
Note: Depending on your mac and the content you are editing, you may not need background rendering at all. Many people prefer to leave background rendering off, and only render specific portions if the playback is not smooth (for instance if you have some effects on a given clip, that your mac cannot play well without rendering, you may want just to render that clip).

  • 7.3.2.6 crashes when coming out of standby mode

    Has anyone else seen this problem with iTunes 7.3.2.6?
    It crashes when coming out of standby mode. There is an error report I can send to Microsoft, but since it's an Apple program, I never send it.
    Using standby was OK with iTunes 7.2.

    Okay. Let's try getting a fresh one through to Roy.
    If the log has been "live" for a while, info about every crash of any description will have been being added to it (with my Morrowind crashing on a daily basis, i once found a DrWatson log on belladonna that was over a GB in size). So it'll be easier for him to work through a log with just one crash on it.
    Will run through my standard instructions just so i don't forget anything. (Sorry, I know you're up to speed on this sort of thing, no offense meant.)
    Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
    drwtsn32 -i
    And hit return.
    This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
    prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
    Generate the crash, collect the crash log, and send it as an attachment to this email address: [email protected]
    In the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
    - A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
    - The username you are using in the thread
    - The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
    - the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
    - A concise description of the issue you are seeing
    - The exact text of the error message you are seeing

  • Creating data sources when database is in standby mode

    Hi,
    We have two oracle db in prod environment. One will always be running and the other will be in standby mode. Is it possible to create multi data source without shutting down the managed server and bringing up the standby database.
    Thanks

    Hi, yes. Define the DataSource to the standby DBMS with an initial capacity of zero,
    so it doesn't try to make a connection until it's actually asked for one. Then
    make the MultiDataSource a failover, listing the up DataSource as the first, and
    the standby as the second.

  • Can't record when box is in standby mode and other...

    Once my youview box has been put into standby it will not turn on with just one press of the remote but if I press the button 10 to 15 times it will usually come on after 4 to 5 minutes. during this time, the remote will not switch my Sony Bravia tv on but it will shortly after the youview box comes on. To compound the frustrations, I will usually get an IPC6023 message on the tv screen telling me that the channel I'm tuned to is unavailable but the channel is patently available because once I have pressed the ok button three times the channel plays with perfect picture and sound. 
    Also any recordings scheduled whilst the box is in standby mode either fail or just do not record. I presume this is because of the IPC6023 problem.
    One other thing. I am at the moment watching the tv but the youview box is showing the mauve standby light rather than the blue lights which should indicate it is on and also the recording light is on despite the fact that it is not currently recording any programmes, I presume the recording light is on because the box thinks it is still trying to record a failed programme which was set to record whilst the box was in standby mode.
    I have checked my broadband and cables and they do not seem to be the problem
    BT has supplied me with  a 2nd Youview DTRT2100 box and this has exactly the same problems. I changed the hdmi cables and the Ethernet cables after finding this same problem occurred on the 2nd box but there is no difference.
    I have now had 3 Cube engineers visit to check my problem but all they do is a factory reset, deleting any recordings that I have managed to make while the box is not in standby mode and then leaving with the problem unsolved, Now that I’ve received a replacement box which has exactly the same problems, I do not want to go through the whole rigmarole again

  • CS5 frozen when iMac wakes from sleep mode

    This problem just started, and I don't know if it's an INDD problem or a Finder problem. When I wake my computer from sleep and try to access INDD I can't. I click on the application icon in the Dock and it won't come to the front. All my other applications will. I have to force quit INDDD every time, and re-open it. This is whether I have a document open or not. I tried zapping the PRAM and shutting down, unplugging everything and starting back up but neither of those helped. Any advice or ideas of what could be wrong?

    Best to post the actual URL. I assume this is: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=d6TgEEMv.

    It's Extensis Suitcase Fusion's auto-activiation plugin!
    So, disable it to confirm. Then make sure you're running the latest version, and if so, take it up with Extensis. I believe they have free support on their web site.
    Also, you should upgrade InDesign to 7.0.4, you're running 7.0.3, and there were a lot of fixes.

  • Z30 when press lcok/unlock button it goes straight to standby mode....

    Hello all Senior Members, I just purchased Brand new Z30 unlock 16 Gig black phone from BlackBerry shop (two weeks ago)....so far I loved the phone very much.  Last couple of days when i press lock/unlock button on top of the phone it automatically shows count down 3, 2 and 1 and goes to standby mode.  It is so frustrating because previously I was using lock/unlock button to shut off the screen for unnecessarily call or press wrong button while putting phone in the pocket. When phone is in standby mode I have to restart the whole phone holding lock/unlock for 10 seconds because when phone is in standby mode I am not getting any messages, calls, etc...(Tried couple of times when phone is in standby mode when I call my number it says “customer is not reachable" Could anyone help me out how to rid of this standby mode please?  Your help will be greatly appreciated.  P.S. - i am a first time BlackBerry users... Regards

  • Standby Mode - Use it or not

    Do you guys put your ATV in standby mode (Play/Pause button for 6 seconds) when you're not using it, or do you just let it run?
    I did not know about standby mode so I've been letting it run in the background and just watching other sources.

    Presumably, there is less power demanded when you are in "standby" mode - if you just switch to another source then it'll just be cycling through the screen saver over and over. If there is any power differential, and since it's a super fast "wake up", then you're better off (and will save $$$) by doing the 6 second standby.
    Does anyone know if there is a power differential between the two modes?

  • Portege 7140CT Shutting Down In Standby Mode - Cannot shut down normally

    Hi. I have purchased a Portege 7140CT laptop for my son. This is a fine unit but has a 'Shutdown' problem - in that it wont shutdown, that is. It appears to power down, but the 2nd indicator from the LHS on the front of the unit flashes slowly. The user guide says this happens when the unit enters 'Standby' mode. I have tried all the FN+F3 options (Shutdown, Standby and Hibernate) with no difference. I have disabled the function key facility in Control Panel. I have disabled 'Hibernate' mode in Control Panel. All to no avail. Anyone any idea why this might be happening and how I might resolve? Many thanks for your assistance. Mike

    Hi,
    I've never heard of this problem, but maybe reinstalling the system can solve it.
    Or maybe reinstalling or updating the BIOS will help.
    Sorry I don't have a better idea.
    Bye

  • After Mavericks Update Arris Modem now going to standby mode when iMac sleeps

    After installing Mavericks on iMac, whenever the iMac (connected wirelessly to the network with Airport Extreme 5th Gen) goes to sleep it is causing our modem to enter standby mode which limits internet access to all devices on the wireless network even when they are actively requesting data from the internet. As soon as the iMac is woken up the modem comes back out of sleep/standby mode and everything works fine. The modem is connected directly to the Airport Extreme WAN port and all devices just use wireless internet. The only resolution I've found is stopping the iMac from entering sleep mode in Energy Settings but this is not a long term solution. Anyone else having this issue?
    The modem we have is an Arris TM722G.
    Thanks in advance.
    I've also tried resetting PRAM, creating a new network location, releasing and renewing IP.

    If you can get the computer to start in Recovery, then access OS X Utilities,
    an attempt could be made to Repair Disk using the Disk Utility there...
    Several instances of an upgrade leading to issues in Mac OS X was due
    to some previous condition in the computer, or problem in the hard drive,
    or maybe insufficient or low-quality RAM installed; among others, before
    the last OS X upgrade was installed. And then the extra effort of processing
    a new OS on top of other bits, can cause the computer to act up or fail.
    What was the previous OS X version? How old is the iMac...?
    Did you upgrade from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2?

  • Should Apple TV be put into standby mode when not in use?

    Anyone,
    When I am done watching Apple TV, should I put it into standby mode or leave it on? Just want to take of my new favorite toy!!!!

    I tend to leave them on all the time - standby mode isn't particularly low power as lots of things are still active.

  • Background Rendering - Any way to curb the percentage of processor that Final Cut uses when rendering?

    When Final Cut X tires to render something on my machine it literally maxes out all 8 cores, sometimes it takes 15-20 mins to process edits I make to the frames, making my wholemachine freez up. Is there a way to cap the amount of processor the FCX is using for rendering? It wiould be ideal if I could set this at 50% or something, so i could at least work on other projects while my machine is rendering. I made global edits to the whole video I am working on that involve keying and transforms on the frames, so everytime i make an edit early on in the movie, it seems to be re-rendering the transform and key effects through the whole movie. Its a pain!
    Next time, I'm going to have to use proxy media. Hopefully that will help.

    If your system can handle native rendering, then turn off background rendering and only render when you need to.
    If you system is stuggling with native rendering, convert to Pro Res, again keeping background rendering off.

  • When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.

    When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.
    With new files opening as a layer and not a background I'm not able to create multiple layers and it wont let me convert the layer to the background.
    How did this happen. I used PS just yesterday and had no problems. Today my computer did mandatory updates and now this.

    Yes. You are using the Ellipse Tool's Pixel option. So it is laying down pixels as it is supposed to do without creating a layer.
    Choose the Shape option:
    Also Layer menu > New Layer creates layers and the curled paper at the bottom of your Layers palette also creates a New Layer. I hope those work.

  • Standby mode message whenI turn off TV

    What does it mean that when I turn off my TV ( and STB ) a message flashes quickly that ' the STB is in standby mode, press MENU to watch FIOS TV'. Why does it do that?  How do I stop it from doing that? I did recently get the 1.62 upgrade if that matters. Is getting this message a bad thing?  Do I have something set up wrong? Thanks.

    I beg to differ about thisbeing a silly message. I have two TV's and STB. On both, there are occasions where, when powering down, the STP shuts down but not the TV. Formerly, I would not know this until the next day when I powered up the STB (and, as often as not, turned off the TV at the same time). In addition to the power wasted by leaving the TV on all night, it would frustrate members of my family who were trying to view the TV. Now, they are told immediately that the TV is still on, and they can take the neccessary corrective action. For us, this is far from a silly message, it is a solution to a problem that has plagued us since we got FIOS (and n Cablevision before that).
    Score 1 for FIOS.
