CS4 Timeline times don't make sense.
Hi,
I'm working on a sequence that is 00;29;29;20 in length. To me that's 29 minutes and 29 seconds. Those numbers are shown in yellow on the lower left side of the monitor. Those same numbers are also shown in yellow just above and to the left of the timeline. Those times agree with my timeline and the playback time.
Now then, and this doesn't make sense to me....... On the lower right side, and just below the monitor, the white numbers I see show 00;01;50;07 . Isn't that supposed to be the total time for the sequence?
That kind of worries me that only 1 minute and 50 seconds are in the sequence. I did render the entire sequence.
Help please. Tom B.
Great news, and glad that we could help.
Jim lists a very good point, and one that I had not contemplated. Besides the WAB, one can set In & Out Points on a Timeline. The bar in the Timeline Ruler then changes density. This is NOT the WAB, but near it. This process has several uses, but most people set those In & Out Points by mistake, usually by hitting the I (eye key), or the O (oh key), when the CTI/Playhead is somewhere other than the 00;00;00;00 point, or the very end of the Timeline. Note: those keystrokes might change, depending on the version of PrPro one is using - but I do not think so). Usually, one then comes to the forum with a question like, "why is the bar above my Timeline changing colors?" or "why can I not Export my full Timeline, though I have the WAB covering the whole thing?"
Good luck, and thanks to Jim for pointing that out too.

In the past couple of weeks, every time I launch Firefox, a full-size pop-under ad is also launched, regardless of what site I'm browsing.
The original ad was for a You Tube survey, and contains a link to coupondropdown.com, where there's a menu option for uninstalling. The uninstall instructions don't make sense, they don't mention what ad-on is controlling the ads, and I can't work out what's responsible for the ads from my very basic range of ad-ons.
The reason I'm writing is that the ads have progressed from annoying but harmless, to dangerous. The ad today was designed as a warning pop-up, text reads, "Threat Detected: Immediate Action Required. Fatal Registry Error ... click "Repair All" to eliminate all possible threats and clean your PC". I have screenshots of all the above.
I'm worried that another user, my son or mother, might take this warning seriously and install malware by accident. What can I do to prevent these ads? I expect this type of malware advertising on dodgy websites, but I'm getting them when I try to access hotmail, the news, etc, so it's not the website that's causing them.Found the source using Microsoft Safety Scanner on a full scan. The culprit was a Trojan:Win32/Sirefef!cfg

I am trying to update my apps on my 4s but says there is not enough space. It shows i have 19.3 GB of 25 GB. Also, in my itunes...it shows about a quarter of space on the bar is photos but I took all the photos out. Don't make sense.
It's telling you there's not enough space *on your 4S*. The 25GB you refer to is probably that on iCloud, that's different memory than that on your iPhone. You need to delete video, pictures, apps, or whatever ON THE IPHONE, to make enough room for downloading updates to your apps.

It don't make sense then why sell the extra GB for the IPad I paid $100 thinking I use it for the extra storage who sold it to me? I thought it was apple I'll have to re check that!!! I'm disappointed for sure.if ICloud is for backup the why can't you use it for storage too!!!
iCloud is for backup. It cannot magically change your device's hardware or storage capacity.
"If you upgrade or renew your storage but no longer need it, you can cancel. If you cancel your storage plan within 15 days of an upgrade or within 45 days after a yearly payment, you can contact Apple for a full refund. After this period, you can downgrade your storage for the following year." -
"Mail Activity" messages don't make sense
I see a lot of messages flying by in the lower left-hand corner about incoming messages yet often there are no new messages. Maybe Mail is doing some kind of housekeeping but the messages aren't useful because nothing obvious happens in my inbox.
Are you using an IMAP server? Then surely it is housekeeping you are seeing. I've turned that window off. I find the Activity Window (Command-0) more useful if I want a sense of what is going on.

I hope there has been found a more efficiant solution for this, how can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, I really hope I don't have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense
any suggestions?Did you try browsing your backups in the Finder ? That is, do not go and "Enter Time Machine". Instead, navigate to your Time Machine backup via Finder and then manually go to the time period (by folder name) you are looking for ... when you find your Aperture library you can then "Show Package Contents" and find the Master you are looking for.

hmm, well I would say that raises the possibility of an issue with your ipad, and lessens one with your router.

How to back up and restore (iCloud and iTunes)

Currently my internal drive is out of space due to my Aperture files. I want to place Aperture on a external drive to work from verses in intnal drive. In addition, I want to back-up all my work to another external for safe keeping. Once I move aperture to the external, I want to delete it off my internal drive. Does this make sense to do? Pros / Cons....
It is common for people to move their Aperture, iPhoto, iTunes etc. files to an external drive when those files become too large to conveniently keep on the internal drive.
The best approach is probably to keep the applications (iPhoto, Aperture etc.) where they are now, but move the files (photos, music, videos etc.) to the external drive.
You should set up a process to regularly backup all the files from both the internal drive as well as the external drive you'll be using. Here are two approaches:
(1) Use Time Machine. You can configure Time Machine so that it backs up both the internal drive as well as the external drive, all to a third separate backup drive. This is done via the Options button in the Time Machine preference pane.
(2) You can use a "cloning" program, such as SuperDuper, Carbon Copy Cloner, to make complete copies of files on your internal drive and that external drive. One way to do this is to use a very large disk for the backups, and to partition it into two backup drives, making one dedicated to the internal, the other dedicated to the external.
Two separate types of backups are recommended. I use both (1) and (2) above, and I disconnect and shut down the clone type backups when not being used. That way a power failure or surge that might destroy the original disk(s) plus the Time Machine backup(s) would still not damage the backups made under (2).
Don't delete your original Aperture files until you have verified that they are working properly from the external drive AND you have made a backup of them. -
Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.
The above is what the bar says. It's been a while and wondered, maybe Apple changed the format for forums. Then got this nice big blank canvas to air my concerns. Went to school for Computer Science, BSEE, even worked at Analog Devices in Newton Massachusetts, where they make something for apple.
The bottom line is fast CPU = more FPU = more headroom and still can't figure out why the more cores= the slower it gets unless it's to get us in to a 6 core then come out with faster cores down the road or a newer Mac that uses the GPU. Also. Few. I'm the guy who said a few years ago Mac has an FCP that looks like iMovie on Steroids. Having said that I called the campus one day to ask them something and while I used to work for Apple, I think she thought I still did as she asked me, "HOW ARE THE 32 CORES/1DYE COMING ALONG? Not wanting to embarrass her I said fine, fine and then hung up. Makes the most sense as I never quite got the 2,6,12 cores when for years everything from memory to CPU's have been, in sets of 2 to the 2nd power. 2,4,8,16,32,64,120,256,512, 1024, 2048,4196,8192, 72,768. Wow. W-O-W and will be using whatever I get with Apollo Quad.
Peace to all and hope someone can point us in THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THANK YOUThanks for your reply via email/msg. He wrote:
If you are interested in the actual design data for the Xeon processor, go to the Intel site and the actual CPU part numbers are:

I read that the CPU is easy to swap out but am sure something goes wrong at a certain point - even if solderedon they make material to absorb the solder, making your work area VERY clean.
My Question now is this, get an 8 core, then replace with 2 3.7 QUAD CHIPS, what would happen?
I also noticed that the 8 core Mac Pro is 3.0 when in fact they do have a 3.4 8 core chip, so 2 =16? Or if correct, wouldn't you be able to replace a QUAD CHIP WITH THAT?

SOMETHINGS UP AND AM SURE WE'LL ALL BE PLEASED, AS the mac pro was announced Last year, barely made the December mark, then pushed to January, then February and now April.
Would rather wait and have it done correct than released to early only to have it benchmarked in audio and found to be slower in a few areas- - - the logical part of my brain is wondering what else I would have to swap out as I am sure it would run, and fine for a while, then, poof....
PEACE===AM SURE APPLE WILL BLOW US AWAY - they have to figure out how to increase the power for 150 watts or make the GPU work which in regard to FPU, I thought was NVIDIA? -
Need to know how to get it back to its original Download Stack. Previous answers to this questionin Apple Support just don't make any sense to me. I'd appreciate explicit directions on how to restore this feature. Currently it's just a Download folder... must have accidently poofed it away.
Help!And if what WZZZ suggests doesn't work (and hopefully it will) move the file name below to the desktop, log out or restart and the Dock preferences with its defaults should be recreated. You'll need to re-configure it as you like it:
com.apple.dock.plist
It's located: in Finder hold the Alt/Option key and from the Go menu select Library>Preferences.
If it fixes things, delete the file on your desktop. -
Clean install of Lion and Time Machine Backup: Does it make sense?
Hello everybody,
I have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion over the App Store and now my iMac (the 27" one from last year) seems to suffer from several slowdowns. Quite unusual for a new Mac. So I decided to try a clean install. Of course I would like to keep my data, my programs and stuff. I am doing daily backups with my Time Machine, so this should not be a problem.
But thats my question: Does it make sense to put back all data from the Time Machine from a backup on a clean install? Doesn`t it possibly put back all the old problems with all the slowdowns I experience right now?
The following I intend to do:
- backup all data with Time Machine
- create a Lion install disc
- boot from the disc, delete the HDD
- install Lion from the disc
- boot the new OS and put back the Time Machine backup
I hope someone can verify that this would work. Since those slowdowns became really annoying I would give it a try.
greetings

I'd recommend against starting with the "nuclear" option.
First, is there a "pattern"? Does the problem seem to coincide with any particular app(s)?
How full is your internal HD? If it's over about 85%, that can contribute to slowness.
Check for directory damage, by Verifying your internal HD, per #6 in Using Disk Utility.
Check for unusual log messages that can indicate a problem. See the tan box in OSX Log Files to locate your system.log, then the blue box there to decipher it, especially the Other Problems section.
If you suspect a problem with your installation of OSX, download and install the "combo" update, per Installing the"combo" update and/or Reinstalling OSX.
If that doesn't help, try installing a fresh version of OSX (that won't disturb anything else), per the same article.

- backup all data with Time Machine
- create a Lion install disc
- boot from the disc, delete the HDD
- install Lion from the disc
- boot the new OS and put back the Time Machine backup
If you want to restore everything from your Time Machine backup, all you have to do is start up from your Recovery HD and do the restore. That will erase the HD and copy everything, including OSX, from the backups. Thus, it's unlikely to help, unless you had unrepaired directory problems.
Or, after you install Lion, use Setup Assistant to transfer everything except OSX from your backups. See Using Setup Assistant on Lion. Functionally, that's pretty close to just installing a fresh copy of Lion as above. -
My Time Capsule is right by my stereo and would like to stream my itunes there. But it looks like I would have to add an Airport express station right on top of my time capsule to do this. Which doesn't make sense to have 2 wireless routers on top of each other. Is that the only way?
Well you can't do it with a Time Capsule.
You could get an Apple TV instead of an Air Port Express and then you can get video as well.. -
Animation logic doesn't make sense....
I know this probably should go to a suggestion/feature request or what not but A. I haven't been able to find the place for that and B. I felt like it'd make sense to see what others thought of this as well....
Firstly....I'm learning flash right now and the animation in it is simply put...."backwards". Every other animation program I've touched made sense but here....its mind boggling. After effects, 3dsmax, maya, just about any other animation software you ALWAYS do the animation THEN place the keyframe.
Why is this important? Because then if you move your object just to see how it would be placed elsewhere temporarily and don't like it, you don't have to undo...or if you moved it accidentally you don't have to try and move it back into place. It doesn't key unless you tell it to key. Unless there's some feature in flash I've not yet discovered that reverses this. The other reason is for the sake of conformity. Sure flash isn't the same as other animation programs but if ctrl+Z is undo universally why do you have to go and change it, just to be different?
Thats not all. It doesn't make sense to have to push a button to edit multiple key frames. Why can't we just select them all and then edit, why add in a useless extra step to edit frames?
Lastly and the most annoying part, is the fact that you need to add in 'blank' keyframes to see your animation play. How did this even make sense from inception? Every other animation program your object will always exist ad infinitum unless you make it disappear. Why force us to add keyframes just to see what we have so far...doesn't it make more sense to just push the play button and see it playing endlessly and then during output you set the amount of frames u want rendered? Even more mind boggling is the fact that if you have an element animated within its own timeline you cannot see that animation in the main stage unless you add blank keyframes? Whats the purpose of these blank keyframes? Its so far as I can see just a needless step that never should have been there.
Well thats my rant.
Again, I don't script, I'm still learning it, but I come from a heavy background of animation of after effects/fcp/premiere and 3d packages. They are all consistent with how animation works, but here it just seems like it wasn't very thought out.
Maybe there are some reasons for the way its done for the sake of actionscript or some other reasons I'm not yet aware of. So forgive me if what I'm saying in actuality doesn't make sense. But if it does.....sure this would require what would most likely be a huge overhaul of flash's animation system, certainly not enough time to make it in for cs5....but at least as a future patch or in cs6 it would really make things more logical and flat out less complicated.
Thanks for reading, comments/critiques are welcome.What is your problem?
