Can I transcode from .mxf (EX3) to prores in Compressor or should that be done best in FCPX?

I am new to FCPX and compressor, can I transcode from .mxf (EX3) to prores in Compressor or should that be done best in FCPX?
I would like to do it the best way, perhaps that means fastest, or least prone to troublesomeness. Cheers

Hmm…not sure.
Either way, you need to make them into Quick Time files and use the Sony transfer software for that. 
FCPX is pretty fast and if your profile is accurate, it should be speedy on that version MBP.  Why not do a test and report back?

    Click here and reset the password. If you've forgotten the Apple ID, you can recover it from the same site.

  • When I try to register my apple tv, I can't do it, because they ask me for a MPN number that I don't have, because I through out the package. What can I do without having the MPN number?

    I bought my Apple TV in Singapore and I haven’t used it yet. When I try to rent a film, comes the message that may signature is not working for security issues.
    However, when I go to the Apple Web site, click "Support", and then "Register an Apple Product", I can´t do it, because they ask me for a MPN number that I don’t have, because I through out the package. What can I do without having the MPN number?
    Thanks!

    Call Apple Care for your country and ask for help resetting the questions.

  • What command can be run from the cmd to inquire about the language layout that is used right now?

    I have windows 7 32bit platform. Is there any command that can be run from the command line just to inquire about the language bar that is currently in use? Suppose I have English keyboard on my machine but I am switching between 3 languages when I write
    my documents (e.g. English, German, Spanish). I want to know if there is any way to tell what language layout that is in current use as seen in the language bar. This question is not about how to change language layout from the command line -- just to know
    what layout. For example, the command can return some sort of string to indicate which layout is currently in use: "english", "german", "spanish", and so on.
    My ultimate goal from this question is to pass this output into an external editor that will hopefully change font based on the input language? Any help to achieve this goal will be much appreciated.
    Or put differently, what is the best way to tell an external editor like Emacs about the current language layout that is in current use?

    For the current input language you can try using
    reg query "HKCU\Keyboard Layout\Preload" /v 1
    The return value includes an eight digit hex value. The first four digits indicate either default layout for the language (all zeros) or a variation (non-zero). The last four digits are the locale id - see:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964664.aspx
    From this table, you can see in the example above my input language is English - Australia. 
    For the keyboard layout you could try
    WMIC Path Win32_Keyboard Get Layout
    0409 is an English - US keyboard.
    For a few other ideas/methods try reading

  • I am having problems viewing a TV episode. It freezes with about 10 minutes left and I can't click the button to move it to see if I can start it from a different point. Is there any way that I can fix this?

    I bought the first season of Doctor Who. When I try to watch the episode, "The Unquiet Dead", it freezes with about 10 minutes left. I can not start it from any other point once it freezes. I was wondering if there is anyway to fix this.

    You can try to clear the cache and cookies to see if that makes a difference:
    <h3>Clearing Cache</h3>
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

  • I have installed Apache Open Office. Each time I try to open, I have to go into security preferences. How can I get it to download and show up in my launchpad that I don't have to download everytime I use it?

    I have unlocked it each time, relocked it and each time I go to use the program, have to go through this procedure. How can I get it downloaded to stay downloaded since it is from an unidentified developer?

    You need to install it - just downloading does not necessarily install it. If you double click it, does it open an installer window? Or, can you simply drag it into your Applications folder (if it is not showing in Launchpad)?
    FWIW, your downloads folder is just a temporary "holding" place for your downloads - once you have installed applications or moved other files where they belong, you can empty that folder.
    PS - If this is what you downloaded, it is a disk image (.dmg) which means you need to double click it; you then need to move the icon and install it.
    Out of curiosity: is it working well? I'm curious because it is rather dated software.

  • I deleted lots of pictures, music, videos and apps from my iPad but it still keeps telling me that i don't have any memory. Do I need to do something else/is this normal?

    My iPad kept telling me that it was running out of memory so I deleted lots of pictures, videos,apps and music but I still don't have any memory. Is there anything else I can do/has anyone else had this problem?

    After you deleted, did you reboot? Press ad hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider. Stuff you delete sometimes does not get flushed away until you do that step. 
    Have you resynced? If so, unless you changed your sync selection on I tunes, all the stuff you deleted was put back on during the sync.
    If you goto settings, general, usage there will be the space available at the top.  And if you give it a minute, it will list all the apps you have,a along with their size.  If you tap any of the apps it will then show the data and documents associated with those apps.  You were right to go after videos first, along with music.

  • Hallo i want to unlock my iphone bought from t-mobile in germany. The provider said, that apple don't want to unlock my iphone when i pay a fee. why not?

    Hallo
    i want to unlock my iphone.
    My provider t-mobile germany said, that they can not unlock my iphone because Apple don't want it.
    Why not?

    do not trust the carriers or Apple n one.
    5. You must work for Apple ?
    Hi,
    1. Wrong. You did not research well to find out the cost difference between - what you thought you bought and what actually it would cost. If you had you would not have made this statement.
    2. Correct. Apple will never does such a thing.
    3. Correct. Perhaps in all countries.
    4. Correct.
    Trust yourself first.
    5. Wrong. No one here does. All are Apple products' users here.
    Did you read http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937 before you purchased that iPhone ?

  • HT5624 I can't download any apps on my iphone. The message is that I don't have ios 7.0.

    Am I going to bea able to down load the apps?

    If the app's description in the app store says it supports iOS 7 only then you cannot install it on your phone if your phone doesn't have iOS 7.

  • Proxy files from .MXF

    Hello everyone,
    I was wondering if someone could help me with this issue:
    I will be editing some footage taken by a camera operator who will send me proxy files over the internet. He will be capturing .MXF with a Canon XF-100. Two good thing about it: 4:2:2 color and 2 audio tracks.
    Now, I'd like to get both in my Proxy files, because I will need both to color correct a bit and to adjust audio levels (1 channel will have an ext mike and the other the built in mike). I was thinking about converting with Media Encoder to Apple ProRes 422 Proxy, which will give me the 4:2:2 color, but not the 2 audio channels. I looked for anything which could get me what I wanted but without luck.
    Can anyone suggest me a way to do that? I will be editing in Premiere 5.5
    Many Thanks

    > 20 GB over the internet will take days, or am i missing something
    Unless your Internet connection is very slow, that is an exaggeration. Hours, yes; days, no. Especially if you zip the files up and use a decent FTP system.
    There are a lot of reasons to work from the original media---the foremost of which is that you don't want to introduce a generation of quality loss due to compression right at the outset.

    I use my iphone 5 to record home videos. I have an apple tv but dvd burners dont have a hdmi plug in. Any suggestions on how i can burn videos from iphone 5?
    I had a av cord that plugged into the iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 but its not compatible with the 5 connector. Right now i have to email myself the videos in small segments and open and save on the iPad 2 to burn them.  Is there an easier way to burn these from my iPhone 5 or through air play on apple tv?
    Thanks

    Connect the phone by USB to the computer, import with image capture, iPhoto or whatever application you use to import movies, drop it into iTunes.

  • How can I upgrade from Lion OS X to Mountain Lion OS X

    Hi my question is "How can I upgrade from Lion OS X to Mountain Lion OS X?"
    I don't want to lose any data from my current Lion OS X, at the same time I don't have enough external HDD to backup. I tried to do the same was as http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/ says but I didn't get Mountain Lion OS X as an option for update.
    Pleade advice,
    Mustafa

    Well, right.  In 99.99% of cases you shouldn't lose any data.
    But if something goes wrong, well, if you don't have a backup you're SOL.
    You truly don't have ANY drive that you're using for Time Machine?
    FYI: It's not a matter of IF, but WHEN, your hard drive will fail.  It will eventually happen, so you should have a backup, unless you don't have any data you care about.

  • HT5625 can not purchase from apps store. message states - Apple ID is disabled.

    Can not purchase from Apps Store. Continue to get message stating that Apple ID is disabled after I select install. I have change my Itune account pass word and updated all information.

    After resetting your password you might then need to log out of your account on your iPod by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • After installinf ios6 I lost all contacts, I could not get them back so I hit restore. This restored the phone to 4 months back. The phone did not give me the option to restore from the cloud. is there anyway I can now restore from the cloud?

    How many backups are in the cloud? When I installed ios6 it backed up to the cloud, since then I restored the phone trying to regain my contacts. At this point the used the last backup I performed on the computer 5 months ago. I never had the oppertunity to restore from the cloud. Is there anyway I can now restoe from the cloud and would it have the backup that was performed when I installed ios6?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
