Can you decide which track to paste a clip into?

This is one of the things frustrating me most at the moment with CS4.
I copy a clip and am only able to paste it on the same number track it came from.
I seem to remember it used to be a case of clicking the video track you wanted (as in the pane on the very left containing collapse/expand controls, hide/show rubberbands etc) so it's highlighted, and it'd paste into that track.
I can't see any way to do it now...?
Extremely annoying if you only have track 3 empty and are forced to paste into track 2, overwriting another clip!

Thanks Bill- I do know what you're saying (trained people on Prem for a few years myself)
Selecting the right track isn't my issue, I've tried having targetted
a) the track I want to paste into
b) none of the tracks
c) several
None of these options had any effect.
Anyway, turns out it was just a temporary problem that has transitioned me into to TOTAL HELL with Premiere! and all has gone awry  in a way I have never before experieced in my rocky ~7 years working with premiere
Instead of trying to explain in text, I made a youtube video in case that's more useful:

Essentially Prem is crashing as a result of almost nothing.

  • Can you select which tracks willplay during slideshow?

    I synched all my music to my ATV. It works well.
    But when I have photo slideshows I do not want to use all my library. ATV lets me choose one album for slideshows, but I would like to choose several. Is there a way to get the remote to allow you to check more than one album in the photos-settings-slideshow-music setting?

    Hi jfabian!
    Thanks for posting.
    What you are experiencing is correct.  It is not possible to select images while a slideshow is playing in ImageBrowser EX.

  • Can you combine both tracks of a stereo channel into one new stereo channel that has both channels?

    This is an old 3/4 inch newsroom tape where they put one side of the story on the left channel and the SOF part on the right channel, so it bounces back and forth as you listen. I captured it in one stereo track but I don't see anyway to combine them on a new stereo master track that would have both the original tracks blended together in sort of a mono version but still coming out of both speakers.  Premiere Pro CC.

    Bryan,
    You can download both at the same time.
    But you may wish to start off with one and use it full time, then download the other later, so you get the maximum possible time with both.
    If you have trouble getting the free trial on the Adobe site, you may try here or here:

  • I am going to college this fall and can't decide which MacBook pro to buy!

    I am going to college this fall and can't decide which MacBook pro to buy the 13in or the 15in. Mainly to type, browse the web, watch videos, and maybe some light gaming. I am worried that the 15in might be too big to carry around all the time.  And worried about the 13in being too small and hurting my eyes over time. Once I do get one, I am most likely going to use it for the full 4 years. Please Help !

    The 13" will do the trick for what you describe as your needs, Be sure to consider how you will backup your data -- need an external drive?
    Also be sure to check with your college or division of study to see what they recommend. If they are hostile to Macs, you may be on your own for finding support. But in most major cities, that will not be too hard.

  • Can you see which apps are open and/or running like you can on an android phone by going to settings applications running services?

    can you see which apps are open and/or running (like you can on an android phone by going to settings>applications>running services)?

    Hi wjosten,
    thank you for the help.  I should have said I had a iphone 3.  A friend has the same phone and she showed me how she can see what web pages are open when she double taps the home button.  Mine is set to bring up favourites when I double tap (chosen from settings>general>home button).. BUT my choices are only HOME; SEARCH; PHONE FAVORITES; CAMERA or IPOD.  I changed my choice to HOME but that just defeats the purpose as when I am at the home page and double tap nothing happens.  Am I making sense?

  • HT4914 How can you tell which songs are downloaded from the cloud on an ipad

    How can you tell which songs are downloaded on the iPad from the cloud?

    I know ipad albums are more like tagging photos rather than putting them in folders. I just have a nagging feeling I missed some pics and I have too many to try to go figure out one by one. I don't look at my photos from the camera roll, only from albums I tagged just because I imported photos from different sources and the dates and order is really messed up. I just want to know that I am viewing all the photos from like this vacation or that event and there's none I missed that are only in the camera roll.

  • Can you batch rename tracks in iTunes for Mac?

    I want to do a sequential track naming, but I can't figure how to do this and the Doug's applescript isn't working - it renames my FILES instead of the TRACKS!
    These tracks are from an audiobook on CD, and it's tiresome to have to search for the "part" when all the tracks are numbered 1-99 and the only thing keeping them from being in the wrong order is the fact that I told iTunes the disc order in the 'Get Info' menu. It wouldn't be so hard on the MacBook, but I usually listen to these on my iPhone, and scrolling through literally hundreds of tracks takes forever, and sometimes I STILL can't find which track was playing last!
    I've done a batch rename using an Automator workflow setup I found on the web, but I can't find anything that lets me actually rename the tracks. I've even deleted the tracks from iTunes, renamed the files, deleted the faulty script that screwed things up, and it STILL comes up with the weird numbers and track numbers and renames the files in Finder!!!
    I'm getting really frustrated with this and don't want to have to rename tracks by hand because that takes HOURS.

    Hi,
    Here is an AppleScript example of how to rename tracks in iTunes :
    display dialog "What will be the base name?" default answer "Track "
    set baseName to text returned of the result
    set n to 1 -- the starting number
    tell application "iTunes"
          repeat with thisTrack in (get selection) -- rename selected tracks
                set name of thisTrack to baseName & n
                set n to n + 1
          end repeat
    end tell
    Without more information, I can not make script specific to your needs.

  • Can you edit a pdf document without exporting it into a word document?

    Can you edit a pdf document without exporting it into a word document?

    Hi sylvias99766822,
    You can if you have Acrobat. If you don't, feel free to give it a try. You can download a 30-day trial from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
    Keep in mind, though, that Acrobat isn't intended to be a word processor. So, while you can make adjustments to text and graphics, if you need to do a major overhaul of the text in the document, it's best to go back to the source document and edit the content there.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Help! I can't decide which one to buy(zen xtra or zen tou

    Hello everyone,
    I use to have an zen nx so i'm familiar with the nomads. I'm want to buy a new one but can't decide on which one. Should get a 30gb zen xtra or a 20gb zen touch. The hardri've capacity is not a big deal to me, as a 20gb mp3 player is good for me. I just want to know how they function differently.
    thanks

    The Xtra has slightly more in the way of features within the firmware and the larger hard disk.
    The Touch has a much greater battery life and is smaller.
    Best to decide on what's important to you.
