Can you do a "Clip Sync" AFTER you've edited clips on the storyline?

A friend of mine edited our footage using just the camera mic sound, and now I have all those project files open on my computer.  I'm doing the sound (edits, denoise, etc...) in my DAW.  I can get FCPX to sync the audio and video clips, and it creates a new clip or even or whatever they're calling it.
Is there anyway to get final cut to use the new compound clips (with good sound) in place of the originals which are in the FCPX storyline?
If I can't think of an elegant solution to this, I figured I would try making copies of the original camera footage, opening them in Soundtrack Pro. Do the sync there, then export the footage and swap them out with the project files that Final Cut is using. Hopefully FC won't notice...!

Well, sneaking the altered files into the project folder using the Finder didn't work. Final Cut "knew" that the file had been changed and the clip showed up in the storyline with a yellow triangle with an exclaimation point in it. Replacing the bogus copy with a copy of the original file fixed things.
There has to be some way to marry second system sound to a clip that is already in use in the story line... How do I "convince" FCP that "Synchronized Clip:_7772310" is the same as "_7772310"?  Probably something that is so simple I'm overlooking it.

  • HELP! I can't add any clips to the storyline.

    It used to work fine, dragging clips to the storyline or using Insert or Append.
    Now I can't add any clips to the storyline, dragging doesn't seem to drag any clips, Append and Insert don't react.
    I create a new project, and I see the storyline, but can't add anything to it.

    Can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Hi sandexpress,
    As Ocean20 indicates, you want to make sure that you have automatic syncing turned off. In iTunes Preferences under Devices, make sure you have "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" checked. Then connect each iPhone, and make sure that "Manually Manage Music and Videos" is checked on the Info page for each of them. Then go into each page for each device, and select what you want to sync to that particular device. (you would do this one device at a time - complete the steps for one of the phones, then connect the next one and do the same thing).
    With this kind of setup, you can modify what will sync at any given time for a particular device once you have connected it to iTunes, but before you click on the Sync button at the bottom of the screen. If you want to change some sync options on a particular device, you would just go into the page you wanted to change (Music, Photos, Apps, etc.), make your changes, and then Sync.
    If you do not have any changes, you can just hook up the phone and click on Sync.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • Can you add page numbers to the PDF version?

    Can you add page numbers to the PDF version?

    Hello saradianapasik,
    If you start with a document created with Acrobat Pro, or exported from your word processor as a .pdf, then you should include page numbers in that originating application. After you have exported a .pdf form from FormsCentral, it is no longer editable.
    I hope that helps,

  • How can you download premier pro when the icon doesn't exist in cloud?[was:pr]

    how can you download premier pro when the iucon doesent exist in cloud???

    In order to download the software, your computer must meet the system requirements to run the software.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-premiere-pro.htmlhttp://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
    The usual reason for not being able to download is that Premiere Pro (and other video apps such as After Effects) are 64 bit only so they require a 64 bit computer and a 64 bit operating system.
    If you're running a 32 bit computer and operating system then you will not see the Premiere Pro icon since the software will not run on your computer.

  • How many times can you clean install leopard on the same computer?

    How many times can you clean install leopard on the same computer? Will the leopard dvd run out of installations and not let you install anymore?

    Hi colman Prez;
    Now that the funny comments have been made, I have a serious question and that why are you worry about reinstalling Leopard with an Erase & Install which is what I take that you mean when you say clean install. In actually fact there is no such thing in OS X as a clean install.
    I am curious because in all the years I have used OS X, I have yet to do an Erase & Install yet.
    I know with Windows that they suggest reformatting and reinstalling at the drop of a hat but that isn't true with OS X.

  • We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

    We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
    Thanks!

    It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
    The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

    Take the memory card out of the camer and put it in a card reader.  When it mounts on the desktop select it and try to change the name.  However, that might make it incompatible with the camera.  You'll just have to try and see.

  • Can you view text outside of the canvas? as with the view menu you can see animation paths, bounding boxes and handles??? many thanks

    re: Motion 5
    can you view text outside of the canvas? as when using the view menu you can see animation paths, bounding boxes and handles???
    I'm in the middle of a text animation design treatment and unless my memory is completely failing I thought this was an option.
    An example would be selecting all layers and being able to see all bounding boxes and animation paths while moving along the timeline.
    Of course this could be quite a mess if you couldn't selectively chose which layers, its just with this current project it would be so helpful if
    I could see the text beyond the canvas to aid in my animations.
    many thanks,

    thanks for both of your responses
    I do understand shift + v " to "Show Full View Area" and shift + z to fill screen, etc.
    and command + & - for zooming
    what I'd like to do is selectively view, say, the text outside of the canvas as you can see the bounding box
    which contains the text or object when selecting one or all layers in the layers column
    I haven't used this feature in a while though I do recall using it in the past.
    Any help would greatly appreciated
    thanks,

  • Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?

    Message title says it: Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?
    I can't find anything in the Knowledge Base that says these two options no longer work or still do.
    I do not have a system capable of running Lion, but I need to know the answer nonetheless.

    Gee, I don't know: "paste attachments mail Lion"? ;-)
    One further question, if I may: in Panther (which is where I've aggregated nearly 7 years of mail), if you copy more than one file in the Finder, switch to Mail, and paste the files into a new message, only the file names paste in. If you copy one file and paste it into a Mail message, you get the file, not just the name. Is that still true, or has that (IMHO) bug been fixed since 10.3.9?

  • In print preview - how can you have multipage previews of the document - 1 - 2 - 3- 6 - 12 page preview and so on so that you can see if the document is ok to print?

    WINXP - In Explorer you can have multi-page print previews from 1, 2, 3, 6 upwards to check and confirm that the document will print correctly to your needs - and does this across the screen format as opposed to down the page, so that you can see all 12 pages on your screen to quickly see that the print percentage is correct and all pages fall into the print area and so on - how can you set this up with Firefox, because printing with Firefox is so unstable, you don't know what to expect when printing a document or web page?

    No what I mean is how can you see many pages across the screen without having to scroll like in explorer where you can see 12 or more small pages on your screen without scrolling down, like tiled across your screen as opposed to vertical down the page. Thanks

  • How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom? Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom?
    Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />
