Deperate Final Plea Before I end It All!

I asked this a few days ago, but perhaps not very well articulated, (because I didn't get a single response!).
I have a Keynote presentation in 1024 x 768 ratio. I need to bring this into FCP so I can add an audio track plus do some other stuff. I have exported the presentation via QT. I have tried several iterations. All DV-PAL as the codec, at native size (1024 x 768), plus at 768 x 576 and 720 x 576. When I play any of these in Quicktime they are crystal clear.
I then open FCP. I've tried using Easy Setup for DV-PAL, and also custom settings to match the QT exports. I've tried every variant I can think of, but in FCP the quality is awful - text and graphics have the jaggies.
Now the final irony is that if I import the native resolution one (1024x768) into iMovie HD it's crystal clear (haven't triedthe other sizes). So iMovie is doing something or using settings that I just can't figure out in FCP. My worse case is to use iMovie but I can't do all the stuff that I need to as easily in this as I can in FCP.
What am I missing? Please, could one of you experts point me in the right direction?
David

first of all, never trust what you see in Final Cut. If you want to see what it;ll look like on a TV, connect a TV. FCP shows you a proxy image that's always low quality.
This page is old now, but there might be some useful info for you there. Most of it pretains to NTSC sizing, but it's all still relevant.

Xcode - Final plea before re-image

Hey guys,
Just wondering, why won't my Xcode build some types of Cocoa (i think) documents such as .m and .pch. It's been happening for a long time now. Some things will build, but AppleScript Applications won't compile the Cocoa .m file.
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers, Ricky.

If you're unable to build a project with no code added it would probably be better for you to post a build transscript from your system. See my instructions in your other thread. The transscript will show -in detail- each command Xcode executes when you do a build as well as where the error is occurring.
On an AS Studio app I have the only place the hmap file seemed to come into play was during the compile/link of the "main.m" file. That would explain how you could encounter the error even without adding any code (even an empty AS Studio app has a main.m file that has to be built).
Here's a portion of my transscript that shows just the part where the hmap file shows up:
<pre class="code">
CompileC build/MultiScript.build/Debug/MultiScript.build/Objects-normal/ppc/main.o
/Volumes/Data/Users/hermasj/Desktop/MultiScript/main.m normal ppc objective-c com.apple.compilers.gcc.4_0

-o /Volumes/Data/Users/hermasj/Desktop/MultiScript/build/MultiScript.build/Debug/M ultiScript.build/Objects-normal/ppc/main.o
</pre>
There are several other chunks of code both before and after this step in the build process but I suspect this is where you're having a problem and looking at your transscript may be the only way to find a clue as to what's going wrong on your system.

Edit - yuck... that code didn't wrap very well without some manually added returns...

TS1717 All my music stops before the end of the tune; whether bought through Itunes library or if loaded from my own personal collection. This has only happened when i changed computer.

When my music ois playing whether on computer or on iphone, every tune quits before the end, losing as much as a minute sometimes. i know the full song is there because i see the timer moving towards the end but jumps to the next song before it gets anywhere near the end.
All my downloads onto iphone have now got the same problem. How to resolve?
My computer is not an apple, the operating system is windows 7.
Mike Dewar

Hard to tell and remember whether it's happening just to pre-itunes plus music. However, it's happening to many songs ripped from my personal CD collection. With 10,000+ songs transferred from my own CD's I'm not high on re-ripping the entire collection.
This seems to have happened in the past 6-12 months and can't help but wonder if one of the upgrades to iTunes somehow corrupted some file or meta data that is causing this effect.

Hello
Simple problem - don,t know how to solve it.
With Premiere CC when I try to do a selection (click... drag... release the click) very often it stop way before the end of the move I'm swinging the Magic Mouse. I taught that the mouse clicking was defective and went to get a new Magic Mouse after lots of frustration. Today, I have an edit to do it it does the SAME thing !!
I was like ????#$%?&*(???
Opened all the lights and taught I've trow the new mouse to the garbage and was using the defective mouse again... no !! - ??
Actually, the bran new mouse is doing the same thing. What I understand after investigating on the motion and watching carefully my fingers !! - is that when I click I have to keep my finger at the EXACT same place on the mouse... drag and release and it's fine. If I click by pushing on the mouse and my finder is moving of a 1/32th of a millimeter, it will release and my selection will be to redo. You can understand my frustration ! - 75$ later... same problem, but I know that if I click with about 5 pounds of pressure and trying to pass my finger through the plastic of the mouse, it you stay steady and make it !
The problem is that scrolling is enable while clicking and it bugs.
How to disable it ??
Simple question - can't find the answer !

Helllooo !?
sorry but the Magic Mouse is just useless with the new Adobe Premiere CC and since I'm not the only one but can't find answer this is really disappointing. This mouse is just fantastic and now I have to swap from a USB mouse to the Magic Mouse every times I do some editing. My USB mouse if hurting my hand somehow and I want to got back to the Magic Mouse asap. Please - for sure there is a simple solution !
Thanks !!

Itunes and Ipod Classic stop before song ends after transfer to new computer

I purchased a new Windows 7 computer and transferred my library from my XP computer.
I restored my library and all seemed well with the world.
I synched my IPod classic 120GB with over 8000 songs.
I was listening to the IPOD on my docking station when I started noticing that songs would just stop before the end of the song.
I thought my 120GB Ipod was dying, so I purchased a new 160GB.
The problem continued.
I then listened to them on the new computer in Itunes and they did not completely stop, they just skipped to the next track at the same place as it froze on my IPOD.
I listened to the same song on my old computer through Itunes and it played correctly.
I have do not have the Itunes Match and the songs that I currently know that have the problem were purchased on Itunes.
Any suggestions as how to resolve the issue?

I would try copying over the tracks from your XP computer again as the files from the first transfer may be corrupted.

IPad can't get past step 8 when syncing. I have to unplug before the end. Is this normal? What do I do to solve the issue?

iPad can't get past step 8 when syncing. I have to unplug before the end. Is this normal? What do I do to solve the issue? Thanks. JD

It is syncing through everything and then failing to close out. If I disconnect then the libraries are all there although I have lost a movie and a few tracks downloaded as a result of this.

Hi
The error log doesnt provide any very useful information.
According to this error log the simulation was running correct but the burning process was not started.
In such case its very hard to say why it happens. Possibly the drive is damage and cannot calibrate the lens properly or you use not compatible medias.
The burning process depands also on the fiels and data which youwant to burn.
Some data, CD, DVDs are encrypted and its not possible to burn and to copy it.
In other case you could also try to burn the medias with lower speed and not with 24x.
But in worth case you the drive has a malfunction and you have to replace it ;(

My songs on itunes are cutting off around 30 seconds before the end, how do i stop it from doing this?

it started off with only some doing it but more and more seem to cut off before the end of the song and its really annoying i dont know why its doing it and i cant figure out how to stop it does anyone have the answer?

I don't know, Maybe Office 2008 doesn't play nice with Lion. Was 2008 working previously with Lion? Did you have these problems with Snow Leopard?
Here's MS's instructions for uninstalling Office 2008.
How to completely remove Office 2008 for Mac
All I can suggest is uninstalling and starting over with a fresh installation.
Alternatively don't use Office at all. Instead use one of the Office substitues that supports Word documents (OpenOffice, LibreOffice, NeoOffice). Also there's Apple's Pages and MS Office 2011.

Songs cut 25 sec before the end - Time cursor issues

Hello !
As all for you, I've just downloaded itunes 7. No special problem until today, where I discovered two anoying (but not terrible) bugs:
1) The time cursor when playing a song is unstable. If I want to listen to a song from 2'22 minutes, i bring the cursor with the mouse at 2'22 to play. But if I clip and drag the cursor, the cursor simply keeps going backwards in time until it reaches the song starting point. I've tried it with the different views... Have you noticed it too?
2) A few of my songs are cut 25 or 30 before the end. If I bring the time cursor over the last 30 seconds of these songs, it directly goes to the next song (or even the song after the next one). This is quite annoying. I've to mention that all my song aren't gapless. I turned the fade option off. But it keeps cutting these 15-20 songs end. Does somebody have an idea about that issue??
Thank you
Regards, Jonathan

AVI files stops before the end, Zen

I recently bought a 6G Zen player and pretty happy about it. I updated the firmware weeks ago, everything is fine. I found proper softwares to convert FLV files to AVI. The final AVI file is fine, sound is synchronized, the whole file is there.
My problem is that when I transfer the file to the Zen, or to an SD card, the video doesn't play until the end. It stops and the player returns to the video list menu. Sometimes 5 seconds before the end, sometimes 30 seconds, the time is not always the same. On the PC, the file was playing correctly.
Anyone has an idea why ? Thanks for the help.

You probably have end actions on the chapter points. Remove them the end actions from the chapter markers, and see if that fixes it.

Songs are cutting out before the end

I have a number of songs that cut off before the end. a couple are over 30 sec short.What is causing this?

I just bought a song today that was almost 5 minutes and it cut off too.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
