Compound clip imported into project not showing up in the event browser

I have learnt that when one imports any clip into the project from anywhere else other than its associated event folder, the new clip also gets automatically added into the event folder. I have seen this occur when I had imported audio from the music browser onto my timeline directly.
Today I happened to place a compound clip [a common template which I use for introduction to the video] onto the beginning of a project which I have started recently. I broke the compound clip apart and made the necessary edits. What puzzles me is that this compound clip has an audio clip and this clip was not being shown in the event browser. Is this normal?
Ps. I have very recently updated my FCPX from version 2 to 5.

Let me explain the matter in a different way...
I have made a compound clip of the intitial generator clip, titles and music clip which I had used for my first project. The intention to do so being that I could reuse the same for my future projects as well. I placed this compound clip in a new project which I named as templates.
When I had started upon a new project a few days ago, I copied and pasted this compound clip from the 'templates project' and added it to the beginning of the timeline of the new project.
Now, for purposes of editing the titles, I broke apart the compound clip and changed the text of the titles. Also, when I had ungrouped the compound clip, there did appear the music clip below the timeline. I know that clips imported from the generator browser and the titles that are added to the project do not show up in the events browser, but should not the audio clip make its appearance in the event browser? I know that when we add an audio from the music browser, this audio clip will be automatically shown in the event browser.
My question therefore is this: is an audio track that gets added to the timeline of a project via a compound clip that has been added and ungrouped on the timeline an exception to the rule?
Hope I have made myself clear.

After transferring clips to Final Cut, they do not show up in the events library. They show up in the timeline of my project, though. how can I see then in the events browser?

After importing clips to Final Cut, they do not show up in the events library. Events from 2014 show up, but not 2015.They show up in the timeline of my project, though. How can I see them in the events browser?

TThose aren't bins. Those are just groupings based on when the content was created or any other selected parameter. Use the action popup in the toolbar tho change the setting.

My internal drive is NOT showing up in the event library in Final Cut X. I am also getting a "The operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory" Any ideas? I am using an IMAC Core i7 with 8GB memory, OS version 10.6.8

My internal boot drive is NOT showing up in the Event Library in Final Cut X. My external raid drive is showing up.
I am also getting error message "The operation couldn’t be completed. Cannot allocate memory" when attempting to create a new "event". Any ideas?
If I had a application disk, I would unistall and reinstall FCPX. I am assuming there is a way do do this without a disk - just have not been able to easliy find out how.
I am using an IMAC Core i7 with 8GB memory, OS version 10.6.8
Thanks

Well it did NOT work. Here is a screen capture as FCPX loads showing the drive while it loads. Then when it is loaded, NO drive showing up in the Event Library ( I have turned off the external drive).
ANY ideas . . . . Anybody . . . . APPLE?

Imported files do not show up in the project menu

When I import files into a new folder I cannot locate them in the project menu. The files do not have a project path. They show up in the "last import" section though. What's wrong?

You cannot import files into an Aperture Folder. Folders hold containers (Folders, Projects, and Albums); they do not hold Images that are not in another container. Projects and Albums hold Images.
Right-click one of the Images shown in the "Last Import" Browser, and select "Show in Project" from the context menu. This should make that Project the active one, and show you which one it is by selecting it on the Library tab of the Inspector.

I am not able to import a audio CD the import window does not show up

I am trying to import a music CD but the import window does not show up and the cd does not copy into itunes.

Hello Kathryn,

Songs not showing up in the Music folder but in a playlist

Hi,
Something weird is happening with iTunes.
Just before upgrading to 10.5, I had a problem where after opening a M3U playlist from the finder, the playlist was added as a regular playlist.
I can play the songs, when I go in the Get Info of the file, I can see that the file has been copied to the iTunes Music folder.
But when I look for the new imported songs from the top Music Folder, then the songs don't show up.
I opened the iTunes Library XML file and the songs are correctly listed.
Any idea?
Thanks!

Sorry, just to clarify, this is my problem:
When I double click on a song from my computer, it plays in iTunes, but it is not copied into my music library. Also, when I import a audio cd, it imports but does not show up in the music library, nor can I click and drag it there or to my Iphone. In the past clicking on these tracks would automatically save it in my library. I noticed this problem last week perhaps after upgrading to iTunes 10.1.2.
Any help or advice is much appreciated. Thanks!

Fcp x 10.0.9 I can't select in and out points while importing media, and scrubber won't work in event browser.

I have two problems, and I have already un installed and reinstalled FCP X, and still have the issues.
1) In the import media window I can no longer select my in and out points to import. Pressing the "I" and "O" keys, I just get the audible error beep.
2) in the event browser I can select the in and out points, but it will no longer scrub through the clip with the cursor.
I do have OSX Mavericks installed, but the issue was prior to the install.

Tom, perhaps I used the wrong terminology, skimming not scrubbing. In the event browser on the thumbnails of my clips, I recall being able to skim to a point and then select the in and out points. It apparently is solved. I guess the reinstall fixed it. Well like taking your car to a mechanic its not making the clicking sound now.
As far as the import. I think by your response you solved the problem. I can select the in and out point when I import from a camera or my iphone, but I did not realize you could not select the in and out points from a video file already on my hard drive.
I appreciate your responce, and have a great day.

Clips imported into iMovie will not play: Please Help!

I have been working on a project in iMovie for awhile now and I have a few different clips imported into it. I have not had a problem with it before yesterday. I went to import another clip and for some reason I got error message "-43" that said it could not copy the files into iMovie. Then today when I opened iMovie to try again, all the clips that had been imported already were grayed out and a little yellow warning sign was in the bottom left hand corner of each clip display (yellow triangle with ! in the middle). They would not play.
It is not the clips though- they work fine when I open them in quicktime and iPhoto.
I don't know if this is ay significance, but this morning before the clips stopped working iMovie made new thumbnails- could this be any reason why it isn't working?
Can anyone help with this problem? I don't know what happened!

Reusing Compound Clips from a Project

I'm working on an opening sequence that will be used in several projects. I know that I can create a Compound Clip in the events library and put my clips there, but I can't use FCPX's transitions in it. Is there a way that I can duplicate a compound clip from one project into another? Besides copy and paste, that is, in a fashion that when I update the original it also updates the projects that reference it.

Not sure why you think this but you definitely can create transitions inside compound clips that are in Events. They should act much like any other Compound Clips (though there are a few differences, one is no Auditions).
If you are thinking that you can't use a transition on a compound clip, then you need to remember that you first have to provide enough media for the transition -- either let FCPX do it by using "full overlap" in the preferences, or trim back the compound clip once placed in the timeline if using "available media."

That is the only way to do it -- copypaste.

Currently there doesn't exist any entity in FCPX that behaves like this. Each time you place something in a project, it becomes a separate "instance" and is no longer connected to the original clip/compound clip you copied it from, whether from an Event or another Project. It would be nice to have that option (e.g., a checkbox that makes a compound clip in an Event "Dynamically Update" copies wherever it exists in projects), but that would be a new feature. Use Feedback to request it!

Imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one?

help! imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one? need answers ASAP!

That is your answer then.
Large is 960x540
Medium is 640x480 (or 720x480)
Mobile is probably 480x272.
It is offering you the sizes that make sense given the size of your source material.
As a trick, you might try this. In your project, put a short 640x480 clip in the project as the first clip of the project. Then keep the rest of the project as is. See if it will let you share now in Medium. It will not look as good, because there are not enough pixels to cover the Medium size, but it might work.

Problems with missing media in compound clips in archived projects...

I archived some FCPX projects as sparse disk bundles. When I archived them, to save space, I deleted the optimized and proxy media, and only kept the original files (which are AVCHD), so that saved a lot of space. Now I find that I need to go back and edit the projects some more and make some changes. So I opened the sparse disk bundles and transcoded the media again into optimized and proxy media.
The problem I'm having is that most of the clips in these projects are compound clips. And I'm getting the red screen with the "T" and the exclamation mark in the yellow triangle. I presume that means footage is missing?
How do I solve this? Did I somehow screw up in a way that I've lost all these compound clips?
Or is FCPX maybe looking for the media that composes the compound clips in areas where it no longer is?
I should note that I made sparse disk bundles of these clips after all the editing was done. In other words, when I created the compound clips, the projects were not in these sparse disk bundles. I'm guessing that is what's causing this problem and that I just have to somehow "tell" FCPX where to find the media from the compound clips.

I am using 10.1.1 on OS X 10.9.3 Mavricks.
Here are two screenshots the first is how the timeline should look and the second is with the clips missing.

Imovie 9.0.9 will not show some of the still photos in project

when working on a imovie 9.0.9 project, some of my still photos from iphoto are not showing up in the project. I can drag the photo over and it appears in the project window but when I play the project some photos do not appear.

I have the same probelm with OSX 10.8.5 and the latest iMovie 9.0.9. iMovie will see most of the pics in the window but, infuriatingly, not some of the others - taken by the same camera on the day day!
The ones it can see, I can drag to the project window - get the green line, add or insert as appropriate and some will show when I play the new segment, and some won't. Some show in the project time line, but don't show up in the viewer when the line passes over them.
I have tried finalising, closing and opening both iMovie and iPhoto, deleting the pics in iPhoto and re importing them. I have been working on this for almost TWO DAYS and it's infuriating because nothing seems to be effective in fixing it, and there is no predicting as to which pics will "stick" and which one's won't.

Why do 4 video clips import into iMovie and one doesn't?

I attempted to import 5 short clips into my MacBook Pro from the same event, shot with an ipad2. Four of the clips easily imported into iMovie. IMovie said that the fifth clip wouldnt import because it is 'not compatible with iMovie'. All of the clips are 1280x720, H.264/AAC, encoding 7.0.2. Importing to IMovie 11, version 9.0.9. I've read thru some of the strings but haven't quite found this problem. Any ideas?
thank you

I think this is an SD memory card camera. It does not work in a format that FCE uses. FCE only works with DV, HDV or AVCHD material. Everything else has to be converted to a format FCE works with.

So you can ping and nslookup from your ms to these agents and vice versa right? I wouldn't do a manual install, I would push the agent from the management server. You can uninstall the agent manually, or use cleanmom to get rid of them. Then
do an install from the console. When you initiate the install from the console (management server), should it run into any issues it will dump out an error which will give you an idea of where the problem may be.
