Can I edit previous projects that I started in fcp 7 in fcp x

I started working on a video project using the old fcp 7 but I have since updated to fcp x and was wondering if I can transfer the files to fcp x and continue where I left off?

No, the projects are incompatible. Apple recommends that you leave FCP7 installed alongside FCPX.

  • Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc?  How do I delete a place I have set up?

    Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc?  How do I delete a place I have set up?  Then I could create a new, correct entry.  I'm using iPhoto '09.

    Is it OK to reply to my own question?? Thanks to the related posts that appeared AFTER I'd made the post above, I learnt about the 'Manage my places' item under the Windows menu. I felt a bit dumb not knowing this.
    BUT it doesn't completely resolve the issue.  The info shown in the EXIF (using opt-cmd-I) under Places has the place name I choose, but it is followed by a few other lines that are incorrect and do not seem to be anything to do with any data I can see under 'Manage my places'.
    Can anyone explain where these other entries might come from, and how to edit them?

    can i open a project that was editing on cc newest version in cc privius versen?

    Well sort of,
    Make an xml export and import that into CC7.
    You will keep all the editing in the timeline but effects, most transitions and titles are gone or empty.

  • I can't edit my Project in iMovie 11-Gray Screen

    I completed importing all the clips into the PROJECT window from the EVENTS window that I needed.  Everything was working well until I imported a song from iTunes.  I tried ducking the song during a portion of a clip in the PROJECT window then all he(( broke loose.  It would not duck so I decided to delete the song from the PROJECT window.  It won't allow me to delete the song.  Now I can't edit the project.  I tried to rename the project and it allowed me in the PROJECT but has a gray viewing screen.  I still have sound in the clips but nothing but gray in the viewing area. If I close the project and close iMovie11 and then reopen iMovie 11 it will not allow me to Edit the Project.  If I change the name again it will allow me into edit but it will not allow me to edit and of course I still have the lovely gray viewing screen.
    Coaches at eleven (11) Division 1 universities are wanting this Recruiting Highlight Video of my son playing soccer and they want it in the next week or so.  I MUST get this thing finished. A scholarship maybe riding on this video or at least a second look at him in person.
    Can ANYONE help?  PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I'm using iMovie 11 9.0.4 (1634)

    I had the same problem and did all of the suggestions such as deleted certain files (com.apple.imove....and com.apple.iapps....) from the preferences folder...didn't really help my situation so I decided to view "rejected only" clips and saw that a clip that was in my project was in the list.  So I deleted the clip and everything is working fine.  You will just have to import that clip again.
    Hope that helps...

  • I can not edit the form that I am filling in

    I can not edit the form that I am filling out. I saved it to Desktop and was allowed to fill it in. But I can not erase some words that I want to change.

    Are the words you want to change in form fields that you previously typed in?

  • How can I edit this number that I have not in my ordinary contact list, before redial?

    Whats up, fellows?
    I want to redial for a last number that called me, however I need to increase numbers (as country code, carrier code or something like that) on this number, how can I edit this number that I have not in my ordinary contact list, before redial?
    Tks,

    That is discouraging.  However I do notice that if I view my podcasts in My Podcasts mode they are grouped and sorted better than in Unplayed mode and the ones in the cloud are not shown. However although I prefer the one window view of List mode to the two windows My Podcast mode, My Podcast mode does at least indicate how many unplayed episodes I have from each podcast.  This would almost be acceptable except that partially listened to podcasts, while still there, can only be identified by highlighting the podcast title on the lefthand sidebar, (although the number of completely unplayed episodes are listed on the left hand sidebar).  As someone who often listens to a podcast over two or more days I fear I could forget which ones I have only partially listened to and would have to go down the entire left hand sidebar list highlighting each podcast to remind myself.  I really find the List mode the most informative and easiest way to view my podcasts and really wish Apple had not messed with it

  • Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    What arrow?
    Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
    If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.

  • Can't Open Previous Projects

    When I try to open any one of my past iMovie '09 projects, the old project briefly comes on the screen (for approximately 2 - 3 seconds) and then quickly changes over to whatever is the most recent new project I've started. So, I can't go back to any of my previous projects to work on them again. I'd love it if someone could help me unlock this mystery.
    I may have just figured this out on my own. I was trying to open old projects by clicking on the actual project file instead of by using the Project Library tab in IMovie. Is it possible to open an old project by opening directly from the file, or is the Project Library tab the only way to do it?

    I'm having the exact same problem as the above poster.  I'm using Windows 7 and PE4 worked for a while until one day it crashed (as it tended to do pretty often).  It offered me the chance to save my project as it was crashing and so I did.  Then whenever I tried to use the program again, it would always crash and "minimize" when trying to open a project or start a new one exactly as it did for the other person.  I'd been thinking about upgrading my software anyway, so I got Premiere Elements 9.  Now it won't work.  If I try to start a new project, it gives me a blank screen.  I try to open one, I get "Sorry, a serious error has a occured [...]".  It's basically an updated version of the same original problem.
    My computer is a Dell Studio 1555 (I think that translates to Dell Studio 16).  It's got an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 281 GB of free space, a regularly defragmented hard drive, 4 GB of RAM, and an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 video card.  The problem can't be blamed on video compatibility as the original problem in the old software arose randomly after I had been using the same Flip HD camcorder and video settings for a while and the new software hasn't interacted with any video yet because it crashes before I can get any in!  What the heck is going on here?

  • Can I edit one project on two computers with external drive and two copies of software?

    I have two copies of premiere elements. One on IMac and one on Macbook. Video files on external drive. I want to be able to edit same project on both. I originally started the project on macbook but IMac doesn't see the exsisting project.  Can I do this? thanks for the help

    Thanks for the follow up.
    The matter of the sign in/trial version has happened to me from time to time with Premiere Elements (I worked with Windows). I supply
    the requested information and that usually takes care of that message for a long while.
    What is the status of the issue now with the MacBook Pro to iMac projects? Is that matter restricted to just one project from MacBook Pro to iMac?
    If so, on this particular one, did you try the Project Archiver/Copy Project workflow in MacBook Pro?
    As for the error message...I am not a Mac user, and consequently I am not sure I am interpreting the following correctly. But take a look to see if any of it applies

  • How can I edit a form that has "Extend Features in Adobe Reader"?

    I created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and added Extend Features in Adobe Reader. I need to edit the form, but "Save a Copy" isn't removing the "Extend Features...". I get an error message that I can't edit the form & to "save a copy" in order to edit. What can I do?

    When I saw the responses, I pulled out an old version and started over. I already deleted the one that wouldn't revert from extended functions and the copy I created to edit it based on removing extended functions with "save a copy". Thanks anyway. I'd love to know why it wouldn't remove extended functions.

  • Can I create a project that dynamically pulls in outside content.

    I need to create a project that has a block of information
    via an image or a html block that can reference information outside
    of the project. The idea here is I want to include Images that
    drive users to other presentations, but would like to make those
    blocks dynamic, such that I can modify the block outside and not
    have to edit and re-generate the presentation from
    Captivate.

    The generic answer to your question is that Captivate does
    not have dynamic load capability.
    You would need to create that functionality in Flash and
    import it into Captivate as an animation. The process is fairly
    straightforward and any decent Flash developer could do it for you.
    And, as Rick alluded to, Paul Dewhurst is a very decent Flash
    developer.
    The only really tricky part seems to be making sure the Flash
    animation takes into account the internal structure of the
    published Captivate project. Published Captivate projects have a
    predefined layer order that may affect what you're trying to
    do.

  • Editing previous project

    I am trying to edit a label that I have been using for years.  I updated my computer and didn't have the disk.  I signed up for a trial subscription before I buy one but I can't make any changes.  I used to be able to open the label file, delete the name, add a different name and save as.  It won't let me delete the old words and make the changes.  Any idea?
