Compressor 3.5 failing on anyone or soon everyone?

I am having the same problem with compressor 3.5 (FCP3) on show leopard that I had on my PPC with tiger and FCP Studio 2. Compressor opens and allows me to drag media, add settings and add a destination. When I submit, compressor closes like it did in ver FCP2.
It was working fine last week on my dual quad core 2.26.
Is this going to be another problem? BTW I have the same software on my MBP, SN with FCP3 and compressor works fine.
I am getting scared here Apple. I don't want this to be a crapper like the last version that took me weeks to fix.

Did you completely uninstall everything before you upgraded to FCS3? (Apps, Preferences, etc..)
Have you trashed compressor preferences recently?
How is your Qmaster setup? Are you set to share services? Does Final Cut open and operate correctly? Do you have other machines on the local netowrk sharing Qmaster services?
A lot of questions, I know.
If nothing comes to light from above, then the next step would be to backup your system, and try a fresh install of Snow Leopard and FCS3 and see if the problem persists. Keep in mind on a fresh install I would select No for sharing services unless you know you need it and know how to set everything up correctly.

    I have a samsung scx 4100 series and i just updated to mountain lion and now i keep getting a "filter failed" error, anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix it.

    Hi again, when you clicked on Mountain Lion and Lion in the App Store you are telling the laptop to reinstall them both.
    You may have allowed simutanious downloads checked at the bottom of the window, I don't know, but I expect Mountain Lion is downloading, so Lion is waiting for it to finish, so if you have Mountain Lion installed cancel both download's.
    Cancell both downloads anyway.
    Go to the apple logo , top left, click on it, then click on about this mac, a window will open telling you what's installed,  Mountain Lion is OX 10 version 10.8.2 click on more info, to find out more, Lion will be OX10 version 10.7.4.
    Only update were it say's check for updates, not download now.

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

  • Does Anyone Or Does Everyone Except Me Know How To Convert Audio To MIDI?

    Hello. I'm your new neighbor... I'll be good in the hood... I've been using Logic for 3 years. I have been mixing 14 Tracks of Audio ever since... Never again. No, never, ever, ever, ever again! Ever!
    Two questions: Can Logic Pro 7 "Convert" Audio into MIDI? If not will you kindly impart knowledge to Grasshopper which "Software" is widely accepted as the best?
    I'll check with Sound On Sound if no one has info here... Thanks.

    Does it usually take a long time for Replys? I once asked a simple question in a Recording Studio Forum and waited 20 minutes and said: "This *****, I'm outta here" I returned a year later and found 50 messages saying how impatient I was and even a few kicks in my iAss.
    I was a real newbie. More dollars than sense... Avalon, SPL, T.C. Elec... blah-blah. "I'll 'Master my own stuff!" So, I wanted to use the Hardware to "soften". Not a peep! Hello-o-o-o-o-o! All I had was pretty lights glowing.
    When I learned the following day, it was only a 'Click' or two away. Usually is with Mac. I love my G5 for Music Production. I've tried 2 PowerBooks an 864(?) and a 1 GHz 17", neither could handle the load of 60 Tracks of Audio. G5, I have increased the Tracks to 78. We're talkin' smokin' trackin' Tracks.
    I'll see if I have an answer to:
    Does Anyone Or Does Everyone Except Me Know How To Convert Audio To MIDI?
    If not I'll slip away quietly and wonder... Does anyone know? I'll return with how to or what to use tomorrow. Then we'll all know!

  • Motion 3, DVD Studio Pro 3, Compressor...fail to display interface

    Macbook Pro C2D, Leopard OS X 10.5.1. All apps were running perfectly before this happened...
    First, all the apps of Final Cut Studio 2 crashed on startup.
    I recall that the last thing I did is trashing the newly installed trail version Aperture.
    After checking the crashing log, I found the problem comes from Prokit.framework. I did a thorough search, the answer is quite clear that the Prokit.framework comes with Aperture 1.5.2 is a PPC version, it replaced the intel version that was in my OS. So the solution is replacing the PPC version back to Prokit for Intel. Finally I found some provided download links of Prokit for Intel. BUT..
    All the Prokit online are extracted with Pacifist from either Tiger OS disc or ProAppRuntime4.0.2.pkg(from apple's website). So they are either version 3.1 or version 4.0.2. After replacing my Prokit.framework with version 4.0.2, all my FCS 2 apps except Final Cut Pro (but Log and Transfer inside FCP 6) stopped crashing but failed to display any interface. But the icons are in the dock.
    So finally I cleaned up all the files related to Final Cut Studio 2 and Prokit.framework and did a fresh reinstallation of FCS 2.
    Same thing! No interface at all.
    At this point, I doubt if the Prokit.framework in Leopard OS disc is different. It's too bad that I'm traveling for a project and my Leopard DVD is not in hand. So I asked a friend using Pacifist to extract Prokit.framework and Browser.framework from his Leopard DVD and sent them over. Now I found that they are indeed different. The one from Leopard is version 4.1. I did a replace again. Now, Motion 3, DVD Studio Pro 3 and Compressor start up, but with black windows and a few images, and the menu bars are really weird. I guess I should install this two framework with Pacifist instead of replacing them with the extracted folders?
    The last resort I guess is to reinstall Leopard? My dilemma if I don't finish my project, I have no access to my OS DVD, but I need to use FCS 2 to finish the project.
    Has anyone run into the same situation? Any enlightenment will be appreciated!

    I have just installed Leopard ans having problems with DDVDSPRO crasshing, can you please expand on how i may install prokit.framework and Browerkit frame work with Pacifist. I am not an expert please bear in mind!!
    many thanks

    Hi there..My MacbokAir freeze when login. Only display apple icon and spinning wheel. ok..dis some cronology why m yMBA freeze for da 2nd time.
    I’m using da mobile USB broadband. My MBA shutdown coz forgot to turn on da power. Then power’s on. Log in normally but it’s become to slow/stuck somewhere. So i restart then can’t log in.
    1st time i ask my friend to hav a look then he said need to format. so i fromat it to OS 10.6.7. and now da same problem repeat for the 2nd time just for a few week only. So i wanna do it myself.
    I’ve done the: 1)safe mode fail(can’t enter). 2)go to disk utility(Hold C key) then repair permission stated this statement...
    Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreService/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAge nt”has been modified and will not be repaired.
    Dunno what is it and just repair the disk and i restart, still fail. And i try 3)reset da NVRAM (COMMAND OPTION P R)..also fail. Then I try 4)reset the system management controller-SMC (shift-ctrl-opt)+power key,also fail.
    Can anyone here help me what to do. Coz it’s was 2nd time i’ve got da same prob. And i believe dat if i format again, then da same problem will come again.

    Please help me..ur help is most appreciated.TQ

    Looks like you have created a nice mess.
    Make an appointment with your local Apple Store or AASP while the machine is still covered by warranty and they can help bail you out.
    Regarding the Repair Disk statement you received please read Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore
    BTW:  Please don't use slang such a coz, da, ur etc. it's not cute and makes your post more difficult to read and understand.

    I cannot print wirelessly from Macbook Pro: this is the error message I receive /Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/MacOS /rastertoescpII failed. Can anyone help. I have been able to print on this printer for months, then yesturday out of the blue I get this error.

    "/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/MacOS /rastertoescpII failed"
    I also saw this same error message above the Print Queue, ever since allowing the Epson Printer Software Update (August 2013) to install. After this update installed, I was able to print a basic Test Page from the Print Queue, but when printing from any application I only got "Looking for printer..." displayed above the Print Queue, which would stall and never print.
    2008 MacBook, 10.7.5. It used to print to my Epson WorkForce 845 wirelessly without problems, before this software update was installed.
    Changing the driver from "Epson WorkForce 845" to "Epson WorkForce 600 - Gutenprint v5.2.3" was a workaround that did allow me to print, but I wasn't satisfied with that.
    Found this better solution in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5233149?start=0&tstart=0
    (with thanks to Yuengdog1983):
    This issue may be a result of the Computer Name being left empty:
    Open System Preferences and choose Sharing.
    Enter a name for your computer.
    Even without restarting the MacBook, I was able to now change back to using the Epson WorkForce 845 driver v9.0 successfully. I never would have guessed that a Computer Name is required in order to print!

  • Compressor 4.1 Failing

    So I've been using compressor 4 and 4.1 for about a year now and havent had any issues with either of them but two days ago I started a batch from FCPX and the first night it got stuck on waiting. I went through all of the forums, deleted the compressor folders in Application Support and still nothing changed. I then uninstalled Compressor and reinstalled it and started my batch like normal and it appeared like it was all going to work but when I came in this morning it all failed. Our workflow is: capture HD-SDI 1080 29p to a Blackmagic H.264 ProRecoder at 20kbits-> Import to FCPX -> create two projects (one for worship, one for sermon) -> export audio and tweek it in Logic X -> import audio file back to FCPX -> add a .tif logo in the corner of the video -> send to compressor to compress a smaller 1080 H.264, a 480 H.264, an AAC and  a MPEG-2 and Dolby Digital for DVD's. Ive been using this workflow for a year without any problems untill this week, nothing has been changed on my system and im current on all updates. Im running an early 2008 Mac Pro 3.0GHZ 8-core with 32gb ram, 12TB of HDD and 256GB of SSD and a Saphire 7950 GPU. Ill attatch a screen shot of compressor so you can see what the fails are. Also, I started compressor at 6pm and it usually takes about 10 hours however when I came in this morning at 830 it had an elapsed time of like 2.5hrs so it ended up freezing or something.  

    Ok since my last post I found out that the 1080 file completed even though it said it failed but the other 4 files failed. I then reset peramiter ram and started the batch (minus the 1080) again and its currently processing the .M2V file and the .AC3 file was successful. Hopefully that solved something and Ill let you all know if it gets hung up somewhere. In the meantime, if any of you know what the possible problem was/is im still curiouse so I can fix it from happening again.

  • Export Using Compressor from FCP fails every time

    When I try to use the File>Export>Using Compressor command in FC Studio 2, everything seems normal until I submit the batch. But the job fails every time.
    I get the following message: "Processing service request error: Final Cut Pro.app generated an error or unexpectedly quitUser aborted Media Server".
    I've gone through all the discussion stuff on how Compressor needs to be reinstalled and all that. That's not my problem here. Compressor will work fine if I use it standing alone. It's only if I try to use the FCP export that this problem occurs.

    Compressor works fine as a stand alone when I import a Quicktime file. However, if I try to export a suquence directly from FCP, it gives me a message "File Error: A file of this name already exists". If I press okay it exports it to Compressor which gives me a message, "Can't preview movie Final Cup Pro App is busy".
    Then when I go ahead and load the output settings into compressor ( actual compressor window shows the sequence as being loaded) it starts to render and then it stops with the following message logged
    "Name: MPEG-2 6.2Mbps 2-pass
    Time Elapsed: 0:00:00
    Time Remaining: 0:00:00
    Percent Complete: 100
    Status: Failed - Final Cut Pro.app generated an error or unexpectedly quitUser aborted Media Server"
    Any ideas what the problem might be?

  • I cannot connect to I tunes store using I tune 11.1 I get the error 0x80092013 "secure link to I tunes store failed" does anyone know what this is?

    I cannot connect to the I tunes store after recently downloading I tunes 11.1 I just get the error code 0x80092013 so not sure what to do. I have tried deleting and then reinstalling I tunes with no luck. I tried to flush my DNS but that did not work, I tried the diagnostics in I tunes and it told me my connections were fine but said the "secure link to I tunes store failed" Looking for an answer thanks!

    Okay I was able to connect back to the I tunes store in I tunes 11.1 taking care of the error 0x80092013. I did this in XP going to the firewall controls, selecting the exception tab. I tunes was already in the exceptions tab but I deleted it anyway, then I added I tunes back using the Add Program button then browsing to the I tunes.exe location in the C drive then selected that as the program. I tunes showed back up in the exceptions once again. I then shut down the computer and restarted it and I then had a connection with I tunes. So the I tunes in the exceptions tab in the firewall was not working I just replaced it with a fresh one.

  • Rotating placed image FAIL - Has anyone had this problem

    I placed an image and made 2 columns.
    The placed art in the 2nd column has been rotated 180 degrees.
    The problem is everytime I reopen the document, the placed art in the second column has been reset to right side up again.
    this is the first time ive ever had a problem with linked images... has anyone ever experienced this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    this is how it gets saved
    and this is how it re-opens
    NOTE: the second column gets rotated back 180º
    but the 3rd column that have been roptated -90º & 90º stay put.

  • Dual 2.0 G5 Failed today- Anyone have ideas on this?

    So today my G5 worked great, as always. Running multiple apps, running fast, blasting through my work. Nothing unusual. Then Photoshop decided not to open a file. So, I force quit, went to re-open, but the dock icon would just bounce once. After a restart, this wasn't fixed. I went to Safari to look for some troubleshooting pages, but got an unusual web error about the server not existing (I believe), rather than the usual "You aren't connected to the internet do you want to run network diagnostics" message. I opened the system prefs and the icon for the network was gone?! After poking around a little more, the system froze, giving the restart screen. Rebooted, same thing, froze after being on for a few minutes. I zapped the p-ram, ran disk utilities, hardware test.
    That's how it started, and here are the computers major symptoms (other than what was already mentioned, as none of them were was fixed):
    ->won't mount any of the external drives (one is usb, one is firewire)
    ->won't mount any cds (but will boot from one)
    ->there is no option to look at the hardware, network or devices in the system profiler
    ->no applications will launch, except apple ones
    ->no network/internet
    ->the desktop pictures are set to change every few minutes, and no longer nicely segue! Just jump to the next picture (minor problem, but weird)
    ->hard drive mounts fine, everything appears to work until you actually try to use the computer!
    Test Results:
    ->hardware test (version 2.1) said the logic board's backside fan has failed (but I've read this result comes up and is very often faulty on the G5s, and that the hardware test is bs and unreliable)
    ->disk utilities found some errors, but fixed them, with the exception of a few "overlapped extent allocation" errors
    ->computer has had the problem where it won't boot and the fans sound like they're going to spin out of control (this was never fixed, just kind of came and went and we shut the computer down less often)
    Computer stats:
    Dual 2.0 gHz G5 (the first model from late '03)
    4 GB RAM (2 GB are from OWC)
    OS 10.3.9
    I did not re-install the operating system. The computer is already in the shop, but there's a 5 day wait before it can even be looked at. In the mean time, I wanted to ask around and see what may cause this and if I could fix it myself (I can go back and get it!). I also would like to know more so I can discuss it with the techs if necessary. It seems like a hardware problem, considering how it worked fine, then didn't. What I've found online points to the logic board being faulty? Or, perhaps a failed processor or a conflict with the aftermarket RAM? Could re-installing the OS have a chance of fixing this?
    Thanks in advance!!!

    It really sounds like a hardware problem. This is a shot in the dark (but what isn't at this point?) but something like this happened to my iBook (of course while I was traveling) -- it had a similar array of bizarre and seemingly unrelated symptoms. Things just didn't work right -- apps would freeze or refuse to run, finder would lock up, etc. First it was occasional but within a few days it was common and everything was slowing down. Not a single test I ran found anything wrong, but I started seeing more and more hard drive related I/O errors in the system log. By the time I got home and got it to the Apple Store it was taking more than 15 minutes to boot. They replaced the logic board and the hard drive, so I can't say for sure which was bad but it was fine after that.

  • Connection Failed--can anyone understand Netstat routing info?

    Folks:
    Been chasing the problem of trying to get my two listed computers to connect by ethernet/Connect to Server with AFP and entering the IP address manually--which worked in 10.3.9. With 10.4.6 -- to 4.9 so far none of the Tiger OS are able to do that. I've rolled the AppleFile Server kext back to 4.8 and tried all the previous versions loaded onto an Ext HD &&& I finally ran AppleJack . . . and nothing, NADA, Nichts!! The two units "see" each other and log in window opens with my correct user name and I enter the password --the spinning beachball and then "Connection failed" or "Log iN failed" --"check the IP address and try again" but I'm looking at the DHCP generated number in the other computer . . . .
    Saw That Phil Smith.com gave suggestion that perhaps this is a routing table?? problem and to run Netstat--so I ran it in my Tiger based iBook with the "Display routing table info" button checked--but I don't know what any of it might mean. Any ideas?
