Easy way to copy regions from 1 song to another?

Hi,
So - if I open up 2 songs at the same time on my PowerBook G4 laptop, and want to copy one region from 1 song to the other - and have the region paste EXACTLY where it was on the other song - how do I do that easily?
So far - every time I click on one song, and then the other - ESX24 instruments for the songs take tons of time to RELOAD, every time I click back and forth from either song. Also, this is video/film score - so to paste exactly from one song to another - I don't know exactly how to do this.
Any help? Thanks!

It was a late night - so a confusing post makes sense... let me try again:
I am using all MIDI regions - and only using the stock set of 'instruments' that ship with Logic 7.1 on the ESX 24.
I have 2 versions of Cue 6. The director came over and likes certain things from version 1 and other things from version 2.
So, I decided last night to take the first version and color all the regions green. Saved that. Then I did as iSchwartz said to do above - quit Logic... then booted it up again with 'controll' held down. Then opened up my new green version 1 and version 2. I then proceeded to copy each track in vers. 2, one at a time - and 'paste at original location' on my new song - or version 1. The SPL was not in any particular spot - as I ussumed from iSchwartz's post above that the command "paste at original location" does exactly that on a chosen track selected.
I don't know how I can select all at once - in vers. 2 to move to vers. 1 - and then edit from there and create a new version. Moment to moment the director likes one thing from vers. 1 and another from vers. 2.
I decided to SMPTE lock everything before copying also... and tempo is the same in both song files.
Hope this is clearer... thanks!

  • What are the diffrent ways to copy data from one application to another?

    Hi,
    Can you guys tell me what are the different ways to copy data from one application to another application??
    I know we can do it through script logic using DESTINATION_APP.
    Is there any other way to copy data from one application to another application?
    Please help me
    Thanks,
    Charly

    You can also call a custom DTSX package in SSIS via the datamanager.
    there are at least 5 ways of transfering data in BPC between apps.
    1. Through the front end (excel etc) via evdre/evsnds
    2. Through Script logic using *Dest App
    3. Using BPC's standard export dtsx package via DM
    4. Using SSIS using BPC's custom SSIS tasks
    5. Through Script logic using stored procs.
    i am sure people will come up with more.
    remember if you use ssis and move data into any table but the wb, you need to process the cube afterwards.

  • Is there a way to copy attributes from one composition to another?

    I'm using After Effects 7.0
    I'd like to copy the same Zoom attributes from one composition to 30 photographs.
    In Final Cut, you can copy attributes from one clip to another. Or from one still photo to another.
    Is there a way to do that in AE 7?
    Thanx

    EDIT: I see you edited your question, so I am editing my reply.
    To copy the scale of a layer, open the main twirl of that layer and you'll see the Transform properties group. Open the twirl for that, and you'll see Anchor Point, Position, Scale, etc. Click on "Scale" and copy it (Edit > Copy, or Control+C on Windows/Command+C on Mac). Then select the other layers and just paste (Edit > Paste, or Control+C on Win/Command+V on Mac).
    Such a broad question
    Anytime you add a new item you imported to the timeline or composition panels, it becomes a new layer.
    Anytime you duplicate an existing layer (Edit > Duplicate), you get a new layer.
    Anytime you split a layer (Edit > Split) you get a new layer.
    Anytime you copy a whole layer (target the name in the timeline panel) and paste it, you get a new layer.
    You also create layers when you use the Shape tools, text tools, or create a new solid layer, etc.
    This list could go on and on, so instead, I invite you to read the After Effects Help section on Creating layers specifically, and the whole chapter on Layers and properties, in general. If anything isn't clear for you, then let us know.

  • Easy way to migrate users from one machine to another?

    I have an iMac lab where students have their own local accounts. The machines are bound to W2k Server with AD. New school year, new seating charts, some users must move. Is there an easy way to migrate a user and all their stuff from one machine to another? We do have Remote Desktop BTW. I'm not finding an obvious answer so I guess there isn't but I sure wish there were. I suppose they could copy anything they want onto the server. set up a new account on the new machine and pull it all back off the server, but that's not "easy".

    Hi
    +The machines are bound to W2k Server with AD.+
    This could be a telling statement although without further information it would be hard to say?
    What I'm assuming from this is that current mac clients are bound to Active Directory. This would mean that user accounts exist on the Server and not locally. In which case there would be nothing to transfer other than the local admin account - again assuming you want the applications installed on the current client macs transferring over to the new client macs.
    To be honest it would be easier and less hassle to create a new local admin account and install compatible software fresh. Use the same tools you used to 'bind' the old client macs to Active Directory for the new client macs.
    +We do have Remote Desktop BTW+
    You could utilize this to (a) name all the new mac clients with appropriate hostnames and (b) 'bind' new mac clients by issuing dsconfigad from the command line. If this seems like too much hard work then you could simply exercise your legs and walk round each one in turn.
    Even if your current mac clients are configured with Mobile Accounts (locally cached network accounts) this would still not be a problem as you can manually or automatically sync the locally cached networked home folder back to the server and then log in with that account again on the new mac clients. The home folder should then be cached locally.
    This assumes you've configured Directory Utility in the appropriate way.

  • Is there an easy way to transfer videos from one ipad to another?

    Hey all, I had a question pertaining to transfer of videos from one iPad to another iPad. Is there a way to do this wirelessly or even transfer by data cable from one iPad directly to another without having to use a computer as an intermidiary?

    You should be syncing your contact to your computer.
    You can probably find a way to get the contacts from your computer to your new phone.

  • Copying photos from one computer to another, with descriptions

    After editing photo descriptions and locations in iPhoto, it is desireable to be able to copy them to iPhoto on another computer, with the associated photo descriptions and locations.  In principle, this is possible by selecting all desired photos, then selecting File -> Export...  In the Export dialog box, in the "File Export" tab, select "Include: Titles and keywords", and "Include: Location information".  Copy the exported files to the other computer, and do a File -> Import to Library ...
    In practice, this works fine with images taken by some cameras, and not with images from others.  In my limited experience with a Fuji F80EXR and a Canon SX230HS, the above work flow works with the Fuji.  But, with the Canon, while the exported files clearly have the description data embedded in them (as seen by GraphicConverter), it is not imported into iPhoto, nor is it visible in Preview's Inspector.  The workaround I use is to run an exiftool command on the exported files.
    Exiftool is a command line utility that can read and write meta data in image files:
    http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
    I run the following command on the exported files to rewrite the IPTC Caption:
    exiftool −overwrite_original_in_place -tagsfromfile %f.jpg -ext jpg -"IPTC:Caption-Abstract>IPTC:Caption-Abstract" *.jpg
    Note that the above command overwrites the files that were exported from iPhoto.  If you wish to leave the original files intact, with an "_original" appended to the file name, run:
    exiftool -tagsfromfile %f.jpg -ext jpg -"IPTC:Caption-Abstract>IPTC:Caption-Abstract" *.jpg
    I'm not sure why it is necessary to copy and rewrite that data.  Perhaps there is something strange in the format of the meta data in the file as it comes from the camera, and the iPhoto export does not correct this strangeness. Copying and rewriting the data by exiftool seems to put things right.
    The above works for me, but is somewhat unwieldy.  Is there a better way to copy photos from one computer to another, if iPhoto refuses to import the description data that it was written to the exported files?

    Thanks for the pointer.  I did a test with 10 images, and confirmed the iPLM works, even with the problematic images from my Canon SX230HS.
    The workflow is to use iPLM to create a new Library on the computer that has the photos you want to copy.  Copy the photos to the new Library.  Copy the new Library to the second computer using a method of your choice (file sharing, USB flash drive, etc).  Copy the photos from the new Library to the existing iPhoto Library.
    iPLM costs $20, whereas my original solution was free (but you need to invest the time to get exiftool installed and working).  But, unlike exiftools, iPLM also copies over the Faces information, so it is likely a worthwhile investment if you use that feature.

  • How to copy attributes (as in which playlists) from one song to another

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to copy the characteristics of a song--as in which playlists it appears in--from one song to another, so that the new song then appears on all those same playlists also? Or, if not, maybe you have some other idea for me:
    I'm working with a Mac. I have several hundred playlists with ~100 songs each, and about 3,500 songs in my iTunes. Most of these songs are currently AACs. I've realized I have a problem: If I want to burn disks with MP3-format songs, I will need to convert the AAC to MP3s to burn them. If I don't want to have thousands of duplicate songs, I will need to trash the AAC versions of those songs from my library. If I do that, they will disappear from the playlists they are currently in (one song might be in 20 different lists). If I had to manually take each MP3 version created, look at which playlists the original AAC version is in, drag the MP3 version to each playlist, and delete the AAC version, it would take a Looooong time. Does anyone know of any shortcuts? For example, is there some way to copy the information about which playlists a given song is in and then paste that info onto the new version so it now appears also in these playlists? Or some other idea? Thanks very much!

    Never heard of any way of doing that. However, you may want to check out Doug's Scripts. There might be something there to help.

  • Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?

    Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?  The cut and paste function is not available and there's no "move to" function.  Am I missing something?  It was so easy with Windows.

    Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

  • Is there a way of copying music from the ipod

    my pc got wiped so i need a way of copying music from my ipod to itunes is there a way?

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iRepo Mac and Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Recently got a new iphone but when i tried to sync it with my itunes, all my music appeared with a cloud beside it and doesnt play. Do i have to download each individual track by clicking on each cloud or is there an easier way? I have over 1000 songs!!!!

    Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
    Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
    Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
    Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
    You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
    BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

  • Is their a way to copy all my ipod songs to a flashdrive

    Is their a way to copy all my ipod songs to a flashdrive because i just bought a new ipad and i want at least 200 songs from my ipod to put on my ipad FYI I DIDNT BUY ALL MY SONGS

    In which case they should have been on a computer prior to getting on the iPod.  Is this not the case?
    If you downloaded them directly to the iPad via an App, then it would be up to the App to provide a way to copy them off.
    Where on your iPod are they?

    You can avoid duplicates by only syncing with iCloud (Wi-Fi) or iTunes but not both.
