Error message: tape unthreaded

Hi,
I am trying to capture clips into FCE HD and I haven't had any difficulty till now. I captured part of one tape this a.m. and then went to my next tape. ( both DV) I put my time codes in and then pushed clip and a message came up "tape unthreaded". I ejected the tape. Looked at it. Put it back in . same message. I then pushed play manually on my deck. It played just fine. I checked the manual and looked for tape unthreaded. Nada. Please anyone please help. I need to complete this rough cut by the end of this week.
peace-
JD-L

What are the marked in and out points? Maybe too
close to the head of the tape.
I thought that as well but I then fast forwarded the tape to 5 seconds 23 frames and I still received the tape unthreaded message.

  • Error Message "Tape Trouble - Check VTR"

    I am using a Panasonic VTR AJ-D450(via Component and RS422 deck control @ DVC Pro 50 resolution) capturing with a Blackmagics Extreme HD and I get the following error message:
    "Tape trouble--check VTR. Do no attempt to eject tape or use transport without checking VTR first."
    The tape keeps running with this message up on the screen but the drive has stopped capturing. There are no timecode skip warnings and no other indications.
    The main problem is that the capture using Blackmagic Deck Control is perfect, this message appears only in the FC2 capture. In another topic, Aja resolved this issue with a patch.
    There are no error messages on the deck display which tells me the deck & tape are actually ok. But has anyone else experienced this and have knowledge about it?
    Thanks

    Hello Guys,
    Thank you for the support, I had solved the problem using the Keyspan USB where the Final Cut 2 started to capture the image normally.
    I am not sure now about the compatibility between Blackmagics Decklink and RS422 of Panasonic VTRs.

  • Capture Error Message: Tape Trouble--Check VTR

    On certain sections of different Digital Betacam source tapes (via SDI and RS422 deck control--Sony J-30 deck @ DVC Pro 50 resolution) I get the following error message:
    "Tape trouble--check VTR. Do no attempt to eject tape or use transport without checking VTR first."
    The tape keeps running with this message up on the screen but the drive has stopped capturing. There are no timecode skip warnings and no other indications. Was wondering if this message is generated by Kona (will check with AJA on Monday) or FCP? I have successfully captured other sections from the same tape. Tape dub stock is brand new.
    Perhaps the warning is correct and some anomally is being detected on the tape at only certain capture points on the same tape. There are no error messages on the deck display which tells me the deck & tape are actually ok. These pro decks are pretty good at letting you know if there's a tape slack, tape moisture or control track problem. But has anyone else experienced this and have knowledge about it?
    Thanks
    Steve

    Sounds like the VCR is sending false signals, or they are true, and you just don't see the problem when the deck sends the message to FCP.... I'd be prone to start trouble shooting this by resetting all the parameters of the playback machine in it's on screen menu etc... I'd suppose too that if there is the slightest error being detected, the deck will kick out the capture process. So might need to have the deck sent to maintenance.

  • Tape Unthreaded Error Message

    "Tape Unthreaded" message when capturing with Canon GL2 using Batch Capture. I noticed that the latest firmware update is now 10.5.7. Could this change be affecting it? Any clues? Thanks!

    It usually means there is no tape in the deck. Might be that the transport mechanism is not fully closed or the tape was not inserted correctly. The tape could also be damaged. Check your camera and tape.
    Mac OS X updates have nothing to do with it.

  • Download error. Tap to retry.     Why? I have a wifi and still the same message?

    Download error. Tap to retry.... Why? I have a wifi connection and still the same message, and even connected to desktop the same for ipad. Help :-)

    I'm getitng the same thing.  I'm beyond sick of this iPad.  It's a third generation Retina Display and it turned into a pile of cat turds after iOS 7.  It got so bad I restored it and used iCloud. It was still god awful.  I restored it and didnt use the iCloud backup and hoped that whatever was wrong would be avoided....nope.  IF I can get a download going it nearly kills my entire iPad.  I will open the cover and wait over 30 seconds just for the screen to light up.  I will hit the home button to close an app and wait nearly a minute in some cases for it to actually close.  Then to top off all the annoyances it just fails and loops over and over. 
    I bought Apple products to avoid stuff like this.  Very unhappy.

  • I have several episodes of a TV show that say "download error, tap to retry" and when I do it just repeats that error message.  Can I get it to work? If not can I get reimbursed for the episodes I'm missing?  I'm using an iPad one which has worked fine B4

  • When I tap the "download for Android" on my Android phone, I receive a "requested item could not be found" error message.

    I am attempting to install Firefox mobile on my Android phone. When I tap "download for Android" on my current browser, I receive a "requested item could not be found" error message.

    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    On some supported devices, a bug prevents Firefox from appearing in the Market. This may be related to the recent Market update. You can go to Settings/Applications and uninstall the Market update, then find and install Firefox.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly from here:
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

    can't get words to open. I have no other applications open, but every time I tap the icon I gat an oops error message that a problem has occurred. ***

    First try killing Words. When on the home screen double press the HOME button, then swipe the screen image of Words up to close it.
    Next, reset your iPhone by holding HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears. If the problem is not resolved delete the app from your phone, reset the phone again, then reinstall the app.

    I need to change my email to reflect my current provider, however when I try an error message comes up. It says I have to choose a different email as the one I'm trying to update to is my "rescue email." How do I fix this?

    Did you change the ID in Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID? Tap the old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new one. If not running iOS 6 it will be Settings>Stores>Apple ID.

  • Constant Error Messages with Purchasing & Downloading on iTunes with iOS 7

    This is getting ridiculous. Ever since I downloaded iOS 7 when it first came out, I've had difficulties making purchases and downloading content wirelessly using iTunes on my iPhone 4S and iPad 2. Every time I tap "Buy" I get a message that says the "Content Cannot Be Purchased At This Time." I then have to close iTunes completely (double-tapping the HOME button and swiping up on the iTunes window), then re-launch iTunes, find the content again and re-hit Buy and then I finally get the button to Download Now and Download Later. Choosing Download Now, I get another error message saying "Content Cannot Be Downloaded At This Time," and I have to do the whole shut down/re-start process all over again to finally have the download start. This happens when I attempt purchases using 3G and on wifi (and I've tried several different wifi networks and I get this error all the time).
    I never used ot have problems like this on my 4S or iPad 2 before iOS 7. I tried restoring to factory settings and then moving all the content manually back from the iCloud and my computer and I still get the error. I tried signing out of my AppleID and logging back in, still get the error. I downloaded the latest iOS 7 software (currently running 7.0.4) and I STILL GET THE BLOODY ERROR. Calling AppleCare, they have no freaking clue why I'm getting this error and neither do the Genius Bar people.
    There doesn't seem to be anybody else (that I can find online) who has the same problem. But there also doesn't seem to be anybody at Apple looking in to this which is incredibly frusturating. I've been submitting Bug Reports to the Apple Feedback pages for over a year now and still no acknowledgment from Apple. I also have been having the issue where my iPhone/iPad iCal apps keep reversing my Alert preferences (which I've noticed people complaining about for over 3 years with no solution from Apple).
    This is getting out of hand. I've been a loyal Apple customer for the better part of a decade. I switched to Apple over PC because of their committment to excellence and relatively lack of bugs in their software. But lately, Apple's quality has suffered tremendously. When there are iOS software glitches that continue after 3 major updates (and several minor ones), clearly Apple engineers don't give a crap about their customers or the user experience. If these issues aren't addressed, I'm seriously going to take my business elsewhere. There is simply no excuse.

  • I get an error message when I try to connect my iphone 4 to my MacBook

    I have a MacBook pro (2006) and I keep trying to connect my iphone 4 so I can add music to the phone and get my pictures from my phone to the laptop, every time I plug the phone in I get an error message that reads "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone 'Kianna's Phone' Beause it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." I don't have a lock code on my phone so I tried to just slide it to unlock it and I get a messages on the phone asking if I trust this computer so I click yes but it continues to pop up. I tried to turn on the passcode and type it in to unlock it then plug it in and also while it is plugged in then I tried taking it off again, nothing worked. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me. My phone is all updated there is no available software update.

    Presumably you have some sort of wired or wireless router.
    You will hopefully have a manual for that. There should be a login/password to let you change the way the router works usually via a web page interface, as chances are if you can see your network name but not connect it's a configuration issue.
    Perhaps someone set it up for you. What sort is it?
    If you can see the network name then (if wireless) the router is broadcasting the SSID (name essentially) - in theory you should have a password set to access that wireless network - if not then anyone will be able to tap into your network which is not ideal from a security viewpoint. It's often best to disable broadcasting the name so no one sees your network, but it's easier to configure automatically when you don't have to enter it manually into a device like AppleTV.
