Best Way to Share Premiere Pro Project Between Computers

I have Premiere Pro on a Mac.
In Final Cut Pro we use Media Manager to move projects and it works pretty great. Is there a Premiere Equivalent?
I have media from a shoot that is duplicated on two computers. Each computer has a different project and edit associated with that meda. I would like put both projects on one machine.
I copied the project from computer A to computer B and re-linked the media, but the edit is screwed up. Is there a trick to this? Should I do some sort of media move too?

If you both have the exact same elements the edit should open up totally normal. Where I work we constantly give each other just the prproj file because we all have exactly the same editing elements, such as promos, lower-thirds, bumps, voiceovers, music, animations. So basically it's extremely simply because we have a folder structure for each program that we edit and that makes things extremely simple. So at the very most we have to relink 4-5 folders because once you re-link one thing a category/folder everything else is auto-pilot. Because Premiere then finds the rest of the stuff from that specific category inside the folder. So re-linking is fairly easy, as long as everyone keeps their folders correct.
However like Steven correctly mentioned you can go to project>project mananger and you copy all your clips to a new folder/location. You can make it create a trimmed version of the project or a full version of the project. But if you and the other person both have the exact same stuff then you shouldn't need to even use the project mananger, if you re-link all the media correctly there shouldn't have been any issue, I've done this literally 1,000 times and never had a problem unless I accidently mis-linked something.

What is the best way to share a iTunes library between 5 users on the same computer?

What is the best way to share a iTunes library between 5 users on the same computer?
Currently I have a common itunes library in a shared folder that each user is linked to. The problem is that when one user adds music to the shared file, it does not automaticaly appear to other users when they open their iTunes. They have to go to the shared library and select the new music in order to make it visable in their iTunes.
Would iTunes file shareing fix this problem?
Thanks

Sharepoints manages the samba configuration file. It's free software that puts a pretty face on an otherwise cumbersome config file.
Give it a shot.
windows will not prompt for passwords, I have tried this with multiple computer at home for both vista and xp
As I stated. You will not get prompted on windows, if you have set up sharing in an insecure fashion. You are not using a secured sharing situation.
No argument with your statement.

I would like embed my movie as part of the Powerpoint to be shown on a Windows machine (my only option). What is the best way to share it so that it doesn't look grainy or pixelated?

Fool proof? Does Mircosoft make Powerpoint?

You could export it out to a Windows Media file.

I've always been partial to Numark and Audio-Technica. Have several DJ friends and a client who runs a DJ business, and they use Audio-Technica stuff almost exclusively.
You may be surprised at how easy it is...
With the exception of cameras (webcams especially) Macs are pretty much "Plug &Play" with anything USB, and even though I've never used one, reviews say you just plug the turntable in and it reads as a drive.

I have a MacBook Pro with 2 users. What is the best way to share an iTunes account between the two users

Having trouble sharing iTunes account

I have currently moved the iTunes media folder to a shared folder on the hard drive but it keeps bringing up control issues for my other half. A real headache. I'm sure somebody must have a better solution!!!

Best way to share large video files between 2 macs

My partner in NY is trying to send me over 10 GB of video to edit. We are currently doing it over AIM/ichat.
Is there a better way to do this? As we keep losing the connection, probably due to aim. Can he turn his mac into an FTP or something

This is easily done over AFP. He should:
1) Put the files in /Users/hisaccount/Public
2) Enable File Sharing (System Preferences -> Sharing)
3) Note his IP address (System Preferences -> Network) and e-mail the IP address to you
Once he has done that, you should:
1) Under Finder's Go menu, select Connect to Server
2) Enter afp://11.22.33.44 (or whatever his IP address is)
3) Browse his public folder for the files
4) Drag them to your Desktop or desired location to make your own copy of them.
10GB is a lot of data to send over the internet. Depending on the upload speed of his internet connection it might just be faster to burn a few DVDs and send them to you by express mail.

[vmware] Best way to share files between host and client

Good afternoon!
I have successfully installed VMware server on my machine and set up a virtual machine, powering Windows XP for study issues (emulation via wine does not do the trick for me). The virtual machine runs fast and stable but does not meet my requirements unless I have two issues faced:
First:
How to access a USB pendrive monunted by the host system properly within the client?
Second:
What is the best way to share file system space between host and client? Should I set up a Samba share which is accessible for both host and client or is it save to grant my VM access to my physical hard disc as a whole (using it as a partition)?
Thanks for answers in advance, I have still quite a lot to learn, when it comes to VMs.
Regards,
~cg

Do not setup your VMware to be able to access your physical disk as a whole. This would have you mounting the filesystem twice, corrupting it in the process.
You /can/ setup VMware with Sharing Folders that lets you share your filesystem (either / or just /home or something else) and that is what I would recommend.
As for accessing the pen drive from both operating systems at once, I'd say use the same Sharing Folders method. I always share /mnt so that I can access my cdrom/USB/etc from the vmware OS.
The sharing folders is basically the same as a samba share, but uses vmware's own method (HGFS). Samba is more secure (if you are worried about your VMware OS breaking from it's shell and attacking your real filesystem, which is unlikely). You need the vmware tools installed to make use of it.

What is the most efficient way to use Remove Grain from After Effects on large Premiere Pro project?

I've tried to use Dynamic Linking both ways but it doesn't the effects don't appear no matter how dramatic I make them. Why couldn't there just be Remove Grain in Premiere Pro so I wouldn't have to go through the headache of figuring this out. I've tried importing the Premiere Pro project into After effects where everything comes up and, since there's so many files, it doesn't seam feasibly or convenient at all. Trying Dynamic Link vice versa didn't lend results either. What can I do??? Projects range from about a half hour to an hour and a half. Thank you.

The situations are well lit; it might be lack of knowledge on the camera settings itself.
Sort that and your workflow issue dissapears instantly.
There's nothing more efficient?
Yep...read above... but ...any Plugin. eg Neat Video... will take long processing time.
Fixing grain..actually "noise"...is always an image degrading process as well. It blurs!

Premiere Pro Project Manager does NOT include After Effects files.

Warning: Premiere Pro "Project Manager" does NOT include the After Effects 'dynamic linked composition' files associated with the project when "Collect File and Copy to New Location" resulting in the incomplete and loss of all dynamic linked compositions in the new project destination ( folder or disc drive ) .. I know this also includes Photoshop dynamic links and assume includes Audition audio files as well.

Here's the best way: Personal Responsibility.
Put all of your project files in one file. Stop asking PPro to do it for you. It's simple. This is a no-brainer. If you create a linked comp, create it in the same file as your PPro project and files. When you send it to Encore, create the Encore project in the same folder. Works all the time, every time. When you're sure that you're finished with the project for the forseeable future, move the entire folder off your workstation into storage. Do I move a copy of each asset (video clip, image, audio, etc.) into this folder before I import it to my AE or PPro project? Yes I do. Is it overly time-consuming? Not really. I can fly on my machine. Does it beat not being able to open a project later. Oh yes. Yes it does. I'd say I did 50 projects last year this way. When I occasionally had to move a project folder back to the workstation, I had no problems. Everything worked as it did before I off-loaded it. That's because I take personal responsibility for my projects. It's imporatnat that theyt work, especially if I end up having to hand it off to a third party down the road.
BTW, my workstation is RAID 0. If you are using anything less, you need to upgrade. What I'm trying to tell you is that my system works very well. I have not always done things the right way. I have had my share of frustration. The point is that I learned. Now I'm passing that on to you. I use CS5 on an HP Z800 with a measely 12 gigs of ram and a single i7 quad core and the aforementioned RAID 0 configuration and a hacked Nvidia GTS 450. It works quite well. I'm sure I would do even better with another i7, 12 more gigs of ram and a Quadro 4000, but this is what they give me to use.
Additionally, I'm using CS5 at home on a MUCH older HP xw8200 dual dual Xeons, 12 gigs of ram and software-only MPE. Guess what? It works quite well.

Importing a Premiere Pro Project file in AE

Hi,
I've just finish editing a long feature with Premiere Pro that I've broken down into 10 project files to allow Premiere not to have the memory crash.
Now I'd like to import in AE the project file to be able to do image stabilization on different shot and sky replacement.
My questions are:
a) If I import the project files, can I make modifications in AE (like color correction, stabilization, sky replacement,...) then save the project so that it can still be opened in Premiere
b) Can I recombined my whole feature into one project in AE or the memory won't handle it as Premiere's memory didn't ?
Thank you.

> If I import the project files, can I make modifications in

You can save a Premiere Pro project from After Effects. See
"Export an After Effects project to Adobe Premiere Pro".
Note that there are several other ways of moving data between After Effects and Premiere Pro, including copy & paste and Dynamic Link. See
"Working with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects".
> Can I recombined my whole feature into one project in AE
> or the memory won't handle it as Premiere's memory didn't ?
The size of the project doesn't tend to be a problem for After Effects. (Frame size, occasionally; image buffer size, occasionally; but not project size.)

Premiere Pro Project Save Error

configuration: windows 7 64bit; Adobe Master Collection CS4; Windows Domain 2003; Mandatory roaming profile for student account. Students save work on a network share specific to their username (having full control of said folder).
issue: when opening an existing adobe premiere pro project, they can make changes, render, export etc. but when they click file->save it give an error:
Project Save Error
Could not open the project file with write access. The file may be locked or you may not have permission to write to this location. Select 'Save As' from the File menu to save the project to a new location.
If we do select the save as option, we can save the file to the same directory from which the original project was opened (with a different filename of course). I believe this might be an issue with a temporary / cache location premiere pro is using but I have been unsuccessful in finding any information on the temp locations and how it saves the working files.

In general, PPro is not really designed for a multi-user setup... or for networking
PPro really runs best when the "owner" is the Administrator... which I don't think you can do for students
Maybe someone else will come along with other information (I am just a standalone user) but I've seen a LOT of similar messages, and don't remember any solution other than running as Administrator, with files on a local (not network) computer

What is the best way to share docs

Seeing as an entire document package can have gigs of data, what might be the best way to share files between two computers running FCP? Would it work to put all media and files on a network drive and then edit the docs from there?
thanks

Hi -
When you say "document package", do you mean "Project"?
Thanks

HELP: best way to share music?

Here's the deal:
I have a MacBook Pro and my wife just got a MacBook Air.
All of our music (about 15,600 songs / 81 GB) is currently on my MacBook Pro.
I would like to use iTunes Match to get all of this music in the Cloud and off my MacBook Pro.
My wife and I would each like to be able to access this music on our respective computers.
We would like to be able to download separate podcasts to our respective computers.
We don't currently have iPhones, but will be getting the new ones when they come out this fall.
At that time, we'd like to access music in the same way as described above.
At that time, we'd also like to have separate apps (i.e. not all the same apps on each others phones).
So my questions are:
Is iTunes Match the solution?
If so, do we share an Apple ID for music... but have separate Apple IDs for everything else (apps, reminder, etc.)? Is that possible?
In short, what's the best way to share music across multiple devices, while still keeping the devices autonomous in other ways? Thanks for your help!

First, read this thread: FAQ: Why iTunes Match can NOT be used as a backup!
If you each want your own, personal content on your future iPhones this can be done with one iTunes Store account ID, however keep in mind that you will both be using one account. If you wish to use iTunes Match this is also possible but you may not have multiple iTunes Store accounts. You both must share the same account. You would both be able to subscribe to your own Podcasts.
For sharing the music locally I recommend Home Sharing, not iTunes Match. And have a backup scheme for the personal data on both notebooks. If you do not have a backup scheme in place now, I suggest you purchase a 2 TB Time Capsule to backup both computers.

What is the best way to share the High Res images ...

What is the best way to share the High Res images on my Nokia Lumia 1020? My Android friends really want to see the original ~12MB images taken with Nokia Pro Camera?
-Paul
Solved!
Go to Solution.

if you have the att device, then use your att locker.
ANYONE can sign up for the att locker here:
https://locker.att.net/app/#welcome
even if you do not have ATT service, you should sign up NOW.
There is an application that is pre-installed to allow for the 1020 to upload the full resolution files to the AT&T locker.
AND, because they are launching the 1020, they are giving a free upgrade to the account to the 50GB box instead of the 5GB.
they are doing this for a limited time only, I have created a couple of accounts.
after you create your account, it will have to be verified. after you check your email and verify the box, log back in and you will see it is only a 5gb account.
click on "my Account/upgrade" and choose the 50GB and you should see it say FREE under the cost.
then you can upload the full res pictures and share them that way.
otherwise, if you are within reach, try Bluetooth transfer.
