Chroma Key FCP 6- Footage is perfectly Keyed, until I hit render, and then only v2 plays

Before rendering
AFTER RENDERING

Is the curtain clip ProRes as well?
Have your tried trashing your FCP Preferences?
It is the usual first step when FCP begins to act unexpectedly:

Click produces menus instead of desired action. Menu can be cleared using esc key, but additional clicks produce more menus until I hit the lucky click that yields the desired action.

Magic mouse & trackpad "clicks" produce menus instead of desired actions. Menus can be cleared using esc key, but additional clicks usually produce menus until I hit the magic click that initiates the desired action. How can I deactivate the menus that appear?

Sounds like your left click is set to right click. Read this: http://magicmousehelp.com/change-primary-click-magic-mouse/

My video won't "Render and Replace" in Premiere Pro from linked footage in After Effects

I am using Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014. I can't get the video to "Render and Replace" in Premiere Pro after editing the original in After Effects. It just freezes on "Analyzing."
In order to see the footage in real time I have to export it to an mp4 then replace the linked footage. The footage is 18 minutes long and it takes more than 5 hours to export it. After I edit the exported version, I have to export it again, which is another 5 hours. This is taking a really long time. I would rather edit the "Rendered" version What am I doing wrong?
Russell

is this just a single clip, or you have the entire 18min loaded in AE as comp? does this happen with new projects and all footage or just some? can you render and replace regular clips that aren't AE comps? if its just a few clips of the 18min project, can you render previews in premiere? if its just a few clips, could also render them out in AE and swap them out in premiere instead of using render and replace... or maybe temporarily disable the ae effects/layers while editing in premiere and then turn them back on when ready to export final render.

Perfect Key Logger on Macbook pro?

Hi,
I have reason to believe my boyfriend has downloaded a key logger onto my computer. I started noticing weird programs being downloaded that had to do with unarchiving files and unencrypting text and I looked into it and found an icon that said "PKL.app". So I googled it and perfect key logger came up. I tried to download it myself and when I did, it would download and never open. I know they are supposed to open the first time but then otherwise run in the background and only open with hot keys. I have tried a couple of variations with no luck. When I click the PKL.app icon (I saved it to my desktop after I found it) and press "open" nothing happens. If I press "get info" it says the date it was downloaded, last time it was opened ect. Also, within the "get info" area on the app icon there is a option to click that says "hide extensions" which is clicked and I am unable to unclick it. He has open access to my computer and I haven't had any credit card theft or anything like that which leads me to believe it is someone that doesn't have a desire to do anything other than on my personal level. Can someone take a look at what the terminal showed and give me any insight? If nothing shows up does anyone know what this PKL app that I can't open is? Also I tried removing the app and it wouldn't let me. Here are my terminal results:

Yes, a keylogger is installed. What you should do next depends on the circumstances.
If you're an adult, and the keylogger was installed on your personal computer without your permission, then the computer may be evidence of a crime or a civil wrong. Consider the legal implications before you do anything. Assume that everything you've done with the computer is known to the party who installed the keylogger.
If you just want to clean up the machine, see below.
The only way you can be sure that the computer is not compromised is to erase at least the startup volume and restore it to something like the status quo ante. The easiest approach is to recover the entire system from a backup that predates the attack. Obviously, that's only practical if you know when the attack took place, and it was recent, and you have such a backup. You will lose all changes to data, such as email, that were made after the time of the snapshot. Some of those changes can be restored from a later backup.
If you don't know when the attack happened, or if it was too long ago for a complete rollback to be feasible, then you should erase and install OS X. If you don't already have at least two complete, independent backups of all data, then you must make them first. One backup is not enough to be safe.
When you restart after the installation, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process for a new computer. That’s when you transfer the data from a backup in Setup Assistant.
Select only users in the Setup Assistant dialog—not Applications, Other files and folders, or Computer & Network Settings. Don't transfer the Guest account, if it was enabled.
Reinstall third-party software from original media or fresh downloads—not from a backup, which may be contaminated. Don't reinstall "MacKeeper," which is a scam.
Unless you were the target of an improbably sophisticated attack, this procedure will leave you with a clean system. If you have reason to think that you were the target of a sophisticated attack, then you need expert help.
That being done, change all Internet passwords and check all financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. Do this after the system has been secured, not before.

Keying FCP & Motion

Hi -
For some reason, I get much better (much, MUCH better) results using Primatte in FCP than in Motion. Is there a way to pull the key in FCP and then send the sequence to Motion for further composite work?
Also, any ideas why Primatte is better in FCP than Motion?
Thanks

This will ultimately be my workflow. I just need to find an efficient and inexpensive way to get my FCP sequences to AE. Thanks for the advice.
Chris
I would question the need for any tool to move projects between the applications unless you have carefully and thoroughly pre-designed and pre-vized the sequences. I try to do that with my keying so all I'm doing in AE is the keying. The rest of the sequence's effects and manipulations are going to be done in Motion or FCP.
There's a chicken (or duck) and egg thing here: if your production is complex enough to really need Automatic Duck or similar products, you also need better keying software. Otherwise, rethink your workflow. Hundreds of thousands of competent filmmakers have figured out how to work just fine without Duck.

Macbook pro 15" mid 2010 i spilled water on keyboard now it wont power on if the battery is connected and the keys on keyboard doesnt work it works fine with no battery and external keyboard if i order a battery and new keyboard will every else work again

If you have records that show that you've taken your MacBook Pro in for a year to fix the machine, I would escalate the problem to Apple Customer Relations - unfortunately I don't have a number for Spain.
It would only seem logical to me that if you've been trying to have the machine repaired during the time that the 'recall' was in effect that you should be eligible for a new logic board. But only customer relations will be able to make that call.
Good luck - take the issue as high up the food chain as you can and see what happens.

Macbook Air Mid 2013 - Keys freeze up now and then

Hey there, I'm getting a little bit paranoid as I'm wondering if I have a key logger here on my Mavericks installation (10.9.5) on this macbook air; but every now
and then when I'm in Outlook or some Chat client working away - suddenly - some keys stop working ! Like the Delete key does not remove previously typed
letters, or the Letter "A" stops working, then -- after 30 seconds or so it comes back!?
Do other people experience sudden keyboard freezes like this? trackpad works fine.. It's a Mid 2013 with i7 1.7GHz and 8GB of RAM.. so it has no performance
issues, as it runs outlook and some office apps. I patched up Office to the latest version too.
So very weird, my next step is Yosemite and crossing my fingers or the apple store?
c

Thanks tool, looks great. I will give it a go, i think you are right - it could be some errant IT tool that my company has installed, they have some terrible
Casper suite (which i deactivated), perhaps it's throwing up some Interrupts.. no clue, but Activity Monitor tells me zero.
Thanks again , will be downloading the tool shortly!

When I restart my computer and hold the option key after creating a bootable usb with windows 7 and partitioning only the original partition shows up. Not the windows one or the bootable usb.

     Okay so first things first this isn't the newest macbook pro. When I open about my mac and go to system report it says it is a Macbook Pro 3,1 and the Boot Rom Version say MBP31.0070.B07. Originally when starting up Boot Camp Assistant there where only two options, the "create windows 7 bootable usb" was not there at all. So after some editing and helpful tutorials I was able to get the option show up and created a bootable usb with windows 7 and downloaded the support software onto a separate flash drive. Finally I did the last step and created a second partition for windows. Once the process is complete my computer automatically restarts.
     This is where the problem is. Once my computer makes the booting up sound it doesn't load up windows it gets stuck on a apple logo as if it's trying to reastart normally and can't. So I shut down and this time I hold down the option key during start up. It brings up the main partition and some recovery thing but no windows partiton and no bootable usb.
     I forgot to mention that I am running OS X 10.9.3. Okay any body want to help me out? Iv'e been at this for hours and can't get an inch closer to having windows. Please and thank you!
P.S. If I missed a discussion that answer my question just point me to it. Iv'e been looking for a while, but who knows i might have missed one.

The only known way to make it work on an external drive is by first installing Windows onto an internal drive, then cloning the install to an external Thunderbolt drive. Thunderbolt is seen as an extension of the internal bus, so Windows doesn't see it as an external device.

I just created a new iPhoto library with holding the option key down and then opening iPhoto with version 7.1.5. I changed the name of the first library to iPhoto library 1 and now I all my photos are gone. My operating system is Mavericks.

launch iPhoto wile holding down the option key and select the original library - when you create a new library of course it is empty
And you seriously need to backup your iPhoto library and purchase and install iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store and download and run the iPhoto library upgraded \then run the new iPhoto - 7.1.5 is not fully compatible with Mavericks

PS you also need to update your profile - it states that you have OS X 10.6.8

So I stuck a key into one of the USB ports and then a message came up and it crashed straight away and now it won't turn back on.(the message was to do with the USB port taking to much power when there wasn't anything besides the key) help?

Please help! My mac is about 6 months old and I was just playing with my keys and stuck it in the USB port and then it crashed and won't turn on, it's not picking up the charger (the little led light isn't on) and pressing the power button does absolutely nothing

Don't be so surprised, people have stuck worse things in worse places before and it was on purpose

How am I meant to get the the apple menu if the laptop won't then on
Reset the SMC first. If this doesn't work, reset PRAM. Move down troubleshoot with links below. First, SMC reset for MBP models 2009 and later:
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

Mac Book Pro with a separate apple keyboard (wired) randomly the keyboard will make a thudding noise like a key is depressed and then freezes

Hi I'm using a Mac Book Pro with a separate apple keyboard (wired). Randomly the keyboard will make a thudding noise like a key is depressed and stuck (which it isn't) which then stops when the keyboard is unplugged. I've tried rebooting, plugging it into another port and unplugging my mouse from it and it hasn't solved the issue. I also can't pin point when it does it, it seems to be random so sometimes, like now it's fine and then others it does it every few minutes. I'm reluctant to throw the keyboard out if there is a chance it can be fixed. Any ideas?

You cannot use any additional devices on the keyboard's USB ports when used in this fashion (except perhaps ONE low power Apple mouse). Anything more draws too much power and may make the keyboard malfunction. In general, keyboards do not tend to complain about low power, they just stop working properly.

My G5 won't boot up. The Gray screen comes on and it thinks about it until the fan revs up like it is about to explode. A friend said to start it up with the OS disk and then go to utilities. Didin't work. Any suggestions? Isn't there a key stroke to help

Oh, so this is where I ask my question. Sorry, first time here. As I was saying in my long intro, the gray screen come up and the thing is spinning at the bottom, but nothing happens. Then the fan starts reving up like it is about to explode and I have to manually shut it off. A friend told me to start it up with the OS disk and then go to utilities. I couldn't find the thing, so I went out and bought another. Needless to say, it didn't work. Is there a key stroke to help jump start the machine? How can I get into this thing? I would prefer not to take it in because there are a lot of things on there I don't want just anyone to have access to.Thanks, in advance, for your help!

The last time you had to hold down cmd opt pr more than twice was a decade ago....

Your drive does need to be repaired, and best things to buy are another backup recovery drive, with a small OS X partition; a copy of Disk Warrior is expensive @ $90 but excellent and best.
Never bother with or use the drive or reinstall while there are errors. Don't take a "clean' bill from Apple Disk Utility to mean there are no errors. Only that it didn't find what it looked for.

Make sure to have multiple backup sets and of your system so if there is a serious problem, you can just erase and restore to be back runninig.
Sounds like your G5 though needs PMU reset, not PRAM, and the best way for those is to clear nvram instead. might even want to check for dust; tell what System Profile says (later) as to "PowerMacX,Y" or "MacProX,1"

The Utility menu is on the menu bar of an "OS X Install DVD" and at the point where you get to but stop at "install....' for OS X. you probably do need to install OS X on another drive to work from.
Oh, a real severe issue and damage to the drive directory or filesystem CAN in cases prevent booting from DVD (the system still tries to find and see what boot volumes are present) and can help to pull or disconnect the drive. Putting a drive in a FW case to turn on after startup is very useful.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
