Cannot set new in points or out points

Just installed Premier Elements 9. These controls are missing in my Preview panel, in the sceneline. I have one inpoint and 1 outpoint per clip, cannot add new ones. I also tried configuring keyboard short cuts for these functions, no effect. What can I do?

You are most welcome.
Video editing is a very intense process, for both the computer and for the user. At first blush, some things do not seem that intuitive. Also, there can be differences in nomenclature and also mechanics, program to program.
For a "quick start," I highly recommend Steve's books on PrE (and PSE too), from Muvipix. He takes the user (new, or old) through the program in a very easy to read fashion. Though I was very familiar with NLE's, editing and even PrPro, I got so much out of his PrE book, that I was up to speed quite quickly. His books helped me to easily locate things that I knew had to be there, but were just placed differently, than in PrPro - also some names had changed and processes grouped differently. He also covers shooting videos, and general editing tips. Much more info than even the best manuals cover. I'd typify his books as a great manual with Adobe Classroom in a Book, all in one place, and at a great price. Make it a holiday present to yourself, and you will not be sorry.
Good luck, and happy editing,
Hunt

Setting in point changes out point and vice verse

I'm working on a motion graphics project in After Effects. Setting in and out points is fine but my After Effects is acting strange all of the sudden. It allows me to set an in point for a layer but once I set an out point it sets the in point back to the begining. The same happens the other way arround. This is really annoying and is actually impeding my ability to work. How can I fix this issue?

Do you use any time-stretching/ time remapping? Also this behavior may occur with some combinations of source timecode usage, so turn that off in the prefs and elsewhere if you don't depend on it...

I cannot set new security manager.

How to set new security manager if there is one that is installed. It always raises an exception.

this is not really a JMS question.
anyway - you can't change a SecurityManager after it has been instatiated. what you can do is run the JVM with the -Dsecuritymanager= propert.y

Cannot add new printer, selection grayed out

I have been using a brother MFC-9420CN. I have been sharing this printer with a windows computer over a wireless network. It has worked flawlessly since I hooked it up. After the last 10.4.6 update for the OS the printer no longer works. I first noticed it when I selected print from a menu. The top selection said the printer name but there was a grayed question mark next to it. I opened the printer utility. The printer was there but would not work. So I removed it from the list and went to add it once again. When I clicked on add a new menu popped up. The menu searched for new drivers and then stopped. On the bottom of the menu is three selections. One for name, one for location and one for print using. They are all grayed out. Because there is no selection in the above menu for me to choose. I tried deleting all the brother print drivers in /library/printer/brother folder. Then I reinstalled. Same problem. I cannot selet a printer now. I also tried hooking it up diretly and nothing happened. I then tried the IP printer selection. At the bottom there is a print using selection. It shows the brother cups driver but when selected and then I choose to add it a message comes up that says "An error occured while trying to add the selected printer error code 50" The printer still works over the wirless connection on the windows computer. Thanks for any help...

I found a work around for this matter. Most of the time, I use spotlight to remove anything on the hard drive that has anything to do with "Brother Printers" Then I reload the CD that came with the printer and it works ok. Every now and again if I cancel the print job on the printer the computer will do this hiccup and say there is no printer. This is my work around.

Shortcut Key v. Toolbar Button - Set in point/set out point

I know that the shortcut keys to insert an in-point and out-point are Alt+[ and Alt+] - but is there actually a button to add these points in Adobe After Effects CS6? I'm terrible at remembering shortcut keys and can't believe that it doesn't appear at least somewhere on the toolbar?
Thanks, Lisa

There is nothing in the tool bar but at the bottom of the timeline there is this:
You can use the in/out/duration/stretch panel to set in and out points numerically. It takes a bit of gettin used to so I'd suggest that you read through some of the training materials on the timeline by typing Timeline in AE's search help field and run through some of the tutorials.

Serial Composition with In/Out points

I`ve asked that question a while back in the prerelease forum but did not made any progress since then so one more try.
I would like to play a series of videos. For those videos i want to specify individual in and out points.
So the first video should start at 0.30 and have a duration of 40 sec for example.
So basically i want to create a playlist of media elements with in points and out points. The whole thing should look like it`s one video.
So there should be one seek bar that scrubs over all video elements and gives me the correct video...
Is this a supported scenario? If not will it be supported? If it`s already supported any help in getting me started would be welcome :-)
Thanks
Benjamin

This is on our feature roadmap as subclip support, slated for inclusion in the Nov/Dec/Jan time frame.

New problem/bug when I set in and out points on a clip. Unwanted automatic zoom in on clip timeline.

Playing clips to log and set in and out points for scenes I will use later. Something changed with the new update and I think it is a bug. When I hit the I and O keys to set in and out points on a clip before dragging to the sequence, it zooms in on the clip timeline. I cannot see the full clip time line unless I zoom out which is a pain to do time and time again. How do I get it back to the way it was before? It did not used to zoom in and out, it just marked your in and out point as it played leaving the clip timeline unchanged.
I am using windows 7 with Premiere Pro CC

Hi,
Thanks for your post. I think you are using Premiere pro CS6 as the Project option is included in the file menu and in the video there is an option of project available and visible. Please update your CS6 with the latest 6.0.5 update and the issue will be fixed. The link is provided below. Please update once issue is fixed.

PRE 8 and/or PRE 9 Preview Window set in & set out point buttons won't work on my desktop computer.

On my deskotp machine, the set in & out buttons don't do anything. I have to manually drag the pointer to the current time indicator. The situation is identical on either version 8 or 9. On my lapotop, as they should, the set in & out buttons work instantly to move the set in or out points to where ever the current time indicator is.
The laptop is a Dell Core 2 Duo with 2 Gigs of RAM, the desktop is a Core 2 Quad with 4 Gigs of RAM. Both are Windows XP SP3, Anyone have any ideas?

By "Preview Monitor," I assume that you mean the Source Monitor, accessed when you Dbl-click on the Clip in the Project Panel, to Trim it. Is that correct? You are then using the I key (eye) and the O key (oh) to set the In & Out Points there, correct?
If so, I cannot imagine that your desktop has had those two keys re-mapped, as sometimes happens with the modifier key shortcuts, where some program that loads at bootup will remap certain keystroke combos for itself, and then when one launches PrE, those keystrokes are still assigned to another program, though it is not running.
Does the keyboard on your desktop rely on a driver to function properly? Almost all wireless keyboards, and most "custom" keyboards do, while most USB, and similar, plain-jane keyboards do not. If it does have a driver, I would check for a newer one. If none are available, I would then reinstall the driver that came with the keyboard - test.
Otherwise, I am at a loss to explain why the I & O keys do not set the In & Out Points in the Source Monitor, as they do on the laptop.
Good luck, and maybe others will have seen this behavior, and can help you.

Problems with set in and out points

I am editing a basketball game-have done 20 of these games. Suddenly, I cannot change the set in point. If I make a new set in point, my last edit disappears from the timeline. How do I correct this?

I DO make sure the clip in the timeline is not selected when I set the new in and out points in the source clip. I have not been able to figure out anything that is different from the usual way I do this that is why this baffles me. I use PP daily and this seems to happen about once a month. I can't figure it out. I save, quit and restart the computer and then it works as it should. I was trying to understand so that I could prevent this from happening.
I do appreciate your common courtesy, Craig.

How to set the out point beyond 9.95 seconds???

how to set the out point in Motion 5 beyond 9.95 seconds???

First you need to make sure your project is long enough then you can adjust the play range (in/out). To make sure the project is long enough:
1. From the project properties (command-J) go to the Duration field and enter a new duration.
2. Click on the down arrow icon to the right of the current time, there is an option to show the project duration. Once set to this you can double click the number and type in a new project duration. I'd recommend setting it back to show current time when done.
3. Of course you can also change the duration of a project when it is first created, in the project browser.
Once you're sure you have a long enough project you can adjust the in and out range. You then use the zoom controls in the bottom of the timeline to show more of the timeline and adjust the play range as needed. There's lots more about project and play range duration adjustments in the documentation: http://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.1/

Can't set in/out points on timeline

Hello there. I have just downloaded the trial version of Premiere Elements 12, which looks like it might have everything I want in a video editor except... it doesn't seem to have ability to set In/Out points (no button exists and hitting I/O has no affect, despite being on their list of keyboard shortcuts). I'm clearly not doing something right. Not being able to edit quickly via I/O/X feels like being in a car without a steering wheel. Please help!!

L Prickitt
I have already pointed out to you the Premiere Elements 12 ways to trim clips in Expert and Quick - including the Expert workspace Project Assets double click of file thumbnail there to bring up the Preview Window as well as the Quick workspace maneuvers.
I have observed that the I and O shortcuts work only after the Preview Windows is evoked in Expert workspace by double clicking the file in either Project Assets or on the Timeline. There are different considerations when Preview Windows is used and brought up in those two different ways - from Project Assets vs Timeline. You really do want to be double clicking the file in Expert workspace Project Assets to bring up the Preview Window for your trims.
However, whether in Expert (Timeline) or Quick workspace (Filmstrip), you can drag the edges of the clip to get a trim.
Your recent post (4) defines what you want to do.
- Drop video, sound and voice over clips onto the timeline (either with a mouse or shortcut keys)
- In the timeline trim the clips most effeciently (for me, anyway) by marking an In Point (by clicking on the I key) and then an Out Point (by clicking on the O key), then deleting the clip (by clicking on X or delete key).
I would ask this. You cite prior experience in what you want to do. What program did you use - was it other than some version of Premiere Elements?
I cannot see what you want to be done in Premiere Elements without bringing up and using the Preview Window which may be taking away the quick style that you described for getting this task done. Again, you cannot use I and O as you cite in the absence of the Preview Window.
Please consider. Knowing the program that you worked with previously would help in the understanding on my side. I have looked at prior versions of Premiere Elements and cannot see what you describe. So, I want to be sure I am not overlooking something.
We will be watching for further information in the hope that we can put together some sort of compromise workflow.
Thank you.

Simple question - set in & out points

I have a LONG MP3 file that I need to pull specific parts out & save them as separate MP3s.
How do I set the in & out points and export using Garageband?
I'm assuming I would just position the in & out points at the beginning/end of the audio I want to export, choose "export" (or something) & it would write that portion of the master track to a new MP3...BUT I can't even see any place to create or move in & out markers.
...at least, this is how I would do it in Cubase. Does it work this way in Garageband?

Hangtime is right, though this does require decoding and then recoding after editing. You could look at 'MP3 Trimmer':
http://www.deepniner.net/mp3trimmer/
which can top and tail the existing MP3 file and save the result out. It is $10.95.

Set Composition In and Out Points

Hello
I'm sure this is simple but a new look to CS6 has thrown me!
Say I have created a composition named 'MasterComp' which comprises several layers of Footage. I now want to place frames 100 to 300 of MasterComp within a new composition named Comp01, how do I do this?
I used to simply double-click MasterComp in the Project panel and then in the preview window set the time to 100 using the timeline and click the 'In Point' button. I would repeat this to set the 'Out Point' and then drag the MasterComp from the Projects pallete into my Comp01 panel.
There appears to be no timeline in CS6 when previewing a composition along with the associated ability to set the in/out point.
Any guidance would be very helpful.
Chris

Hello Rick
Thanks for your thoughts. Perhaps I was not clear. If I remember correctly, in CS5.5 I could double-click a composition to preview it and there would be a timeline beneath it so that I could scrub up and down and set the in/out points. I have reset my Standard Workspace and there is no timeline beneath a Composition when previewed. There is, however, for a Footage item.
Composition Settings only lets me adjust the Start Frame and Duration. I don't want to make a global change to the composition, simply set an in and out point for the composition's use when placed within another composition.

Anyone can point me out on some proper steps to connect my new iPhone5c to my old MacBook running an updated 10.6 OS?

Hello,
Anyone can point me out on some proper steps to connect my new iPhone5c to my old MacBook running an updated 10.6 OS? Cannot make the iPhone to connect to he MacBook (Bluetooth) even the latter has already paired the new device and it seems ready to use.
The iPhone only want to forget the device (my MacBook) while it cannot connect to it.
I also created a WiFi network on my MacBook and joined the iPhone to it - cannot see it anywhere.
I have connected the iPhone to the Macbook using the provided USB cable but Finder does not show the iPhone, that only presented me with the option to trust or not the Computer the moment I plugged in the USB cable.
Am I missing something? Am I doing something wrong?
Thx,
Iul

Unless you're trying to Tether, your phone won't pair with your Mac...file transfer, by Bluetooth, is not supported.
Your phone won't appear in Finder, as Disk mode is not supported on any iPhone.
