Can't change speed on clips in timeline - get error message

In Final Cut Pro 5.1.2, when I try to change the speed of clips in the timeline I get the error message "Unable to complete command. A conflict occurred during a trim operation." I have changed the speed of many clips in this project previously, but it suddenly won't do it now. I have searched for a solution but can't seem to find it. Any help would be appreciated.

You could go next door and search the forum there. Or you could search for the answer here. It comes up pretty often.
When you change the speed of a clip it changes the duration of the clip, which ripples the sequence. That changes its duration. Sometimes changing the duration/clip speed will move things in the timeline. Sometimes when you try to move things in the timeline, overlapping clips or other things bump into each and prevent the sequence from rippling. This is most common cause for the error message you're seeing.

    First, if you've moved the iPhoto library to an external drive, make sure that drive is mounted by opening it in the Finder.
    The issue can be caused by sharing the photo library on a network (against Apple's advice) or by opening it in more than one local user account at the same time. You may be able to clear the error by logging out or restarting the computer. If not, do as follows.
    Quit iPhoto if it's running, locally or on any file-sharing client. Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Usually it's in the Pictures folder, but you may have moved it somewhere else. Right-click or control-click the library icon and select
              Show Package Contents
    from the popup menu. In the folder that opens, navigate to
    Database/apdb/lockfile.pid
    and move that file, if it exists, to the Trash. Close the Finder window.

  • Changing Speed of clip in timeline in a specific wqay

    I realize there are a variety of ways of affecting
    a change to the speed of a clip already in the timeline,
    but I'm trying to figure out how to do it in one very specific way:
    If I have 3 clips (A,B,C) and I want to change the speed
    of B so that it is slower, but not expand the clip from
    it's original length (meaning it will still occupy the
    same spot, duration and length in the timeline), is there a way of accomplishing that just by punching a specific figure
    in somewhere (i.e. make it move at 50%).
    I know about fit-to-fill, time remap, right clicking a clip
    and changing speed. However, I don't want the clip to
    expand past it's spot in the timeline, just play slower in the spot it occupies.
    The closest I've come is going into the time remap tool and lowering the end keyframe so it moves slower, but this is
    imprecise. I want to be able to punch in 50%, or 60% somewhere and have it take, without expanding. The time remap tool won't let me punch in 50%, although that indicator moves when I drop the ending keyframe down a little.
    Can what I'm describing be done, and if so, how? Thanks.

    Match frame back to the original media. Slow it down, then cut it back in.
    You cannot slow down the clip in the timeline without it expanding. You are telling FCP to take the existing clip and make it longer...of course it will expand in size. It doesn't know that you don't want it to do that. It assumes (rightly so) that you want the clip, with the IN and OUT points you designated, to be slower. Keeping it in the same spot on the timeline means cutting off the head or tail of the clip...losing points you told FCP you wanted.
    Simple to just load the clip into the viewer, slow it down to the speed you want, then cut it in.

  • Can't save MP4 as a .mov file  get error message below

    The error message reads: "This movie cannot be saved"
    Below it says:
    "This movie has an incorrect time value"
    I'm trying to save it as an MOV file for use with IMovie
    Any suggestions?

    Probably not a video "editor" but a video "converter" application. My guess is iSquint (now out of business).
    MPEG Streamclip may be able to export the file or fix the timecode issue. I never used the iSquint software so I'm not sure.

    There was an error creating your disk image. The operation couldn't be completed. (DSPPublishing error -1012)

    I don't have a background image. I called Apple and they had no idea what that error number meant. I deleted preferences for FCPX still didn't work, then delted all preferences and set up a new user. It now works. Apple has no idea what is going on.

  • Best way to change speed of clips

    Hey, I want to change speed of clips, both faster and slower in one clip. What is the best way to do that preserving the quality? I am still learning FCP so my apologies, and I had a hard time finding anything on here through search.

    Jerry's right...
    Take a look at this:
    http://homepage.mac.com/captmench/SlowMo3.mov
    Two frames each of FCP and Shake at 50%. Use your arrow keys to go frame by frame. First frame is normal, second is interpolated. Look at the background!!
    Creative cow should have the whole tutorial online soon... I'll post back with the link when they do.
    Also, for time remap -- shake's got that under control too... but for now, look at this:

  • When I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

    In the past, when I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

    I had that too. On the bottom right of the AVG search page is a link which leads you to where you can switch it off. This restores normal Speed Dial operation.
    This hijacking has really cheesed me off. I've just downloaded Avast and am going to put it on in place of AVG.

  • My old appleID use email with domain already deactivate. So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    Hi ccharat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    I hope this helps,  
    -Joe
