Device Control wont stay set to none

I am using Premiere CS4 with a Canopus ADVC-300 capture device.
I have used this for years and never had a problem with Premiere providing I set Device Control to “none” both in the Preferences and the capture window.
My problem is I can’t get the Device Control in the Preferences box to stay set to “None” any longer. I can set it and then close the window and check back and it insists on going back to the “DV/HDV” setting. I have changed it to none at least a dozen times and it keeps setting itself back to “DV/HDV”.
This crashes the capture every time.
Any ideas on how to get it to stay where I set it?
It stays set to “none” in the capture window but I can not make the preferences menu do the same.
I can reinstall the program but that is a last resort due to the time it takes.
Any help would be appreciated.

Guys I appreciate your help but nothing is working.
I tried deleting the preferences file and the same thing happened again anyway.
I then uninstalled the whole Creative Suite and deleted all files associated with it and all entries in the Windows Registry related to it.
I then reinstalled everything ( spending the hours it took) and it is doing the same thing again. I can not think of anything that has changed on the machine at all and I have never had this happen before in the years I have been using Premiere.
Everything used to work fine and Captures would go without a hitch even if they took hours as long as the Preferences were set to “None” on Device Control. But now it just won’t stay set, even after reinstalling everything. The Capture Window Device Control will stay set to “none” but not Preferences regardless of what I do.
I tried changing other Preference Settings and they stay changed but not device control. And it is the same regardless of whether the ADVC-300 is on or off. I even tried deactivating the Firewire Port in the Bios just to see what would happen and it made no difference.
Does anyone have any ideas?
My last option is to reformat my drive and reinstall everything from scratch but that will take me a day and a half.
I can not understand what is making it do this when it never did it before.
Here is what I am using:
Premiere Pro CS4 with a Canopus ADVC-300 Capture Box. It is installed via Firewire and goes to the Firewire Port on the Motherboard.
I am using XP Home SP3 on a Core I7 Computer with an Asus motherboard.
If no one has any ideas do me one favor. Go into your own Preferences file and set Device Control to “None”, close the panel and open it again to see if it is still set to none.
It may help me feel a little better about reinstalling all my software and spending the day and a half doing it if I know it is something with my machine and not the program itself.

Color management setting wont stay set?

Running Acrobat Pro 9.4.1 in conjunction with CS5 Design Premium. Not only does the color management setting in Acrobat not change when set and synced from Bridge. The setting wont stick when set directly in Acrobat. Does anybody have a similar issue or a solution? I run Europe prepress 3 in bridge which has no effect on Acrobat but if I select Europe prepress 3 directly in Acrobat it will stay on that setting until I quit Acrobat then when re-launched it will be set to Europe Prepress 2! Any help or explanation much appreciated.

Wallpaper wont stay set.

I have a late 2011 MBP running ML - system is entirely up to date. i set my wallpaper frm SP and it will stay as long as the comp system is active. The moment the harddrive is set to sleep and completely inactive. I turn the comp back on and the wallpaper is back to "galaxy". Iv removed third party apps but still the wallpaper folder wont stay set? i am rather experienced with my mac so advanced help would be great. thanks:-/

You have a corrupt preference file most likely, see if this can help also install the free OnyX from Macupdate.com and under Verify there is a preference file checker.
The procedure is the same, seek and destroy it, reboot and reset that apps preference, it creates a new files free of the corruption.

Set Device Control to None

Hi!
If I set Edit->Preferences->Device Control->None and then restart Premiere it once again is set to DV/HDV Device Control.
I need that it will be set to by default to None because I capture video in Premiere through Matrox (S-video) and if it is set to DV device control I got a message - "There are captured no frames"
Thanks!

http://www.matrox.com/video/en/support/
I think this is a bug of Premiere, not Matrox.
Why this preference can not be saved as None.
If you want to capture with Matrox you capture with Matrox tools and not with Premiere.
I know by myself how to capture
I think You don't know about what I am telling.
Any other opinion?

Ipod touch wont load past apple screen. I have tried resetting by holding home button and on/off but after it resets it still only loads to the apple screen. When I plug the device in It stays on the apple screen and itunes does not recognize it?

Ipod touch wont load past apple screen. I have tried resetting by holding home button and on/off but after it resets it still only loads to the apple screen. When I plug the device in It stays on the apple screen and itunes does not recognize it? I fear it may be stuck in some sort of reset loop which is stopping itunes from recognizing it. How do I go about the process of sending it in to apple if I cannot find a fix? Thank you in advance, it is greatly appreciated!!

- See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off (that is required to place in recovery mode), then let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the reset, restore again
- Then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apples store.

Itunes purchase wont stay off my phone

I'm running iOS 7 on an iPhone 5s. Old song purchases wont stay off of my phone. I've unselected 'show all songs', 'automatic download', etc... I've logged off from iTunes app, and re-logged on. This technique has made the songs "go away", but once I shuffle songs or connect to bluetooth, these songs reappear. I cannot figure this out. Any hints?

Device Control/Capture Problem

My computer set up is an HP xw9300 workstation running Windows XP. I shoot 720/60p HDV, sometimes with tape and sometimes with tape and hard drive. The cameras are JVC and the deck is the JVC BR-HD50. Although I had some difficulty getting Premiere from CS2 to recognize the deck for recording, it eventually did. No problems at all with Premiere in CS3. I recently upgraded to CS4...and haven't been able to capture anything since. In the dviice control, both under preferences and in the capture program, the settings that worked in CS2 and CS3 are JVC/Standard. Using the same settings with Premiere in CS4, device control will control the deck functions (forward/play/back), but it will not record and it will not stop the deck. I've tried all the JVC settings...none work. I've also tried to capture without device control...no soap. Anybody have any ideas as to what is going on here? Your help and suggestions are appreciated.

Contact Apple Support or an Apple Store if you have one near you. Your battery needs to run through the diagnostic test. You can also try to put the device into Recovery mode as well and rsetore the iOS software, and set up the device as new. Follow this article on Recovery Mode:

Unable to initialize capture device and device control in HDV

I shot with a Sony HVR-Z1U/Z1N and am using a Sony HDV 1080i tape deck to digitize.
I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and installed FCP Pro 5 on it. After getting over some time code issues we were chugging along, when on the 4th tape the image on the log and capture screen suddenly dissapeared (I could get audio and could see the image on the tape deck). Well after taking the tape out, checking and rechecking it I popped it back in and ever since then, I have been getting this error mssg "Unable to initialize capture device and device control."
I have tried deleting the preferences and starting from scratch. If I do that, and choose the easy setup with HDV- 1080i60, it gives me this error "Unable to locate the following external devices- HDV (1440 X 1080) 30fps.
I upgraded to FCP 5.1.2 this morning and upgraded the OS to 10.4.7 and QT to 7.1.3 and still no change.
Im at my wits end, Ive been working on this for a whole week now.
Thank you,
Bugs

It has been reported to take more than one attempt to correct the installation but, if properly executed on a machine without other system problems, the QT reinstall process does work. The key element here is you must reinstall QT after you trash the receipts. The process is listed below.
x
To do a full quicktime reinstall.
Go to /library/receipts and delete any files that say Quicktime followed by a number e.g. Quicktime703.pkg
Go to the Apple quicktime site and download the appropriate version of Quicktime to your hard drive.
Run the Quicktime installer.
Repair Disk Permissions for your System Disk (Disk Utility > Select the system disk > Repair Disk Permissions)
Reboot
If this doesn't work, then the problem lies elsewhere:
1. your system - user preferences, firewire ports or other system elements.
2. your equipment - camera/deck/firewire cables.
3. your process - not setting up the software properly or using the software erroneously.
Listed below is a troubleshooting process. Not all steps are appropriate but the general process of isolating the problem is useful.

Airport Icon wont stay turned on..

Hi Guys
For somereasom today, my Airport icon on the top right hand of my screen wont stay illuminated and thus, my internet connection keeps dying.
Its fine on my Macbook Pro but not on my Mac Pro desktop...?
At the moment there is just a blank icon with an explination mark on it - any ideas?
Thanx a lot in advance for your help

I seem to be having the same problem. We were in Mexico on vacation, and on the second day I was taking some photos near the water with some highways and some water splashed on the camera, but it seems to still be working for the next few hours. When I stop taking pictures and came back to the camera a few hours after, I tried turning it on and the set date and time settings screen was displayed. After I entered the settings, I was able to resume taking pictures. However, when I turned the camera off, then on again, that same screen displayed it again.
The next day, I went to turn on the camera, and the lands would not extend fully and will turn off main extension. When I held down the power button, it would retract back but not all the way. If I hit the playback button, I was only then able to fully close the lens. I'm thinking now in hindsight, I should have not tried to turn it on, and just put it in a bag of rice right away, but it's probably too late for that now, and since I'm thinking the water that got on it was salt water from the ocean, it might have corroded some terminals or some electronics inside, I'm not sure. But I don't think I want to pay $200 for Canon to just look at it, and then come back to me saying they can't fix the camera. The warranty has just run out, and I think I might be better off just buying a new camera.

Device Control doesn't show Firewire & I can't communicate with my AJA IO

I've seen one other post about this and I've tried the responses to it: trash prefs, rebuild permissions, reboot the computer (let it rest and uplug), trash quicktime receipts and reinstall, uninstall AJA software and reinstall.
The only thing I haven't tried is reinstalling my OS.
I'm on FCP HD.
I can capture and print to tape as an uncontrollable device. But I need to edit to tape tomorrow using the RS-422 to my digibeta deck via the AJA IO. It has worked in the recent past (last month), but in the past two weeks I can't control my deck.
Also, I get the message "This computer does not have any serial ports required by this protocol" when I try to set up a new RS-422 AV device control setting.
Help!

Jerry, I can't thank you enough. I still have a few hairs left on my head thanks to you.
I downgraded my AJA firmware and that did the trick.
I had been on the phone with AJA last week tryingto fix this problem and we had tried everything except that. You know, the trash quicktime receipts, trash prefs, hard re-boot, etc.
They were stumped and finally decided it was a Mac problem not an AJA problem. Ha! (Very nice folks though.)
Your's was an answer I didn't find anywhere else in all my searching of forums.
Thanks again!

Device Control for HV-20 capturing DV?

In FCE, I'm using the "DV-NTSC Firewire Basic" Easy Setup to capture DV (not HDV) from a Canon HV-20. It works great using "Capture Now," but "Capture Clip" apparently is not available.
Can anyone confirm that full-fledged device control is not available in this configuration? (That is, I can't preview the tape and set In and Out points before capturing.)

My mistake, duh! The Capture window works just fine in this configuration. One must, however, click the "Play" button!

Samsung Charge wont stay on 3G

My new charge and my wifes wont stay on 3G networks. We have to restart the phone and then it will restart with 3 g service and after about 5 minutes or less it goes back to regular service with no connectability. What is up with that. It happens everytime, restart, 3g for 5 minutes and then back to regular service. My friends can be sitting right next to me with there phones that aren't the Charge and they all have 3g. Any ideas.

Hello paperclips,
I’m sorry to hear you’re still having difficulties with your device not staying on 3G. Do you notice this is happening in particular areas or is it happening everywhere? If it's happening everywhere I would recommend you do a factory reset following these steps:
Go to Menu
Go to Settings
Go to Privacy
Select Factory data reset from the Personal data section
Select Reset phone. Keep in mind this will erase all data from your phone but it won't erase current system software, bundled applications and SD card files like photos and music.
If it's only happening in certain areas please reach out to our technical support team at 866-892-7957 to open a trouble ticket for the area.
