FCE to FCP? Can I transfer an unfinished FCE file into FCP?

Hi all,
I would like to know if i can transfer a FCE file into FCP and continue editing from there?
I started my first project in FCE, after many months of learning the basics the hard way.
Having now read about the features of FCP, I am considering upgrading as I am led to believe that a lot of issues that are consuming my time editing, (e.g. eliminating unwanted audio ticks, image stabilisation etc.) are far easier/quicker in FCP.
I realise that you can not make something out of what you don't have, but FCE just doesn't cut it when you start off with less than perfect material and are looking to smooth things out in general.
So if i buy FCP can i finsh my project?
Will my macbook pro handle it for now?
2.4Ghz Intel Core Duo Processor,
2GB 1067 Mhz DDR3 Memory,
Thanks for any information.

You can open FCE projects in Final Cut Pro.
Work on a copy of your project file -there's no going back.
Your MacBook Pro will handle Final Cut Studio fine.

  • How can I transfer an adobe reader file to Microsoft word?

    I have Windows Vista on my machine. I really need to transfer an Adobe reader file into Microsoft word or at least be able to type inside of Adobe. Just wondering how can I do this task or am I just not able to?
    Any help or suggestions out there..?

    That would require using Adobe Acrobat. It can create Word docs from PDF's.
    The bad news is, most of the time it doesn't do a very good job at it.
    With Acrobat, you could also add form fields that you can fill in which would be much better.

    I was hopeful I could use home sharing to sync my iTunes libraries,
    Unfortunately, you can only stream content to your iOS devices via home sharing (not sync it).
    I'd have a check through the following user tip instead:

  • How can I transfer a big .pdf file e.g. 9 MB from my Macintosh Performa 5200 and its OS 8.1 to an USB-flash drive?

    How can I transfer a big .pdf file e.g. 9 MB from my Macintosh Performa 5200 and its OS 8.1 to an USB flash drive? E.g. is there any adapter available in order to connect the SCSI with USB? Or is it better to use a compression software and transfer it to 10 3,5" floppy discs?
    Thank you
    Emanuel

    Hello Emanuel,
    The Performa 5200CD did not have built-in Ethernet as standard, so unless an Ethernet card (or an external SCSI or LocalTalk-to-Ethernet adapter) has been added, that method would not be available in this case.
    Your suggestion involving compression software (such as an appropriate version of StuffIt) with segmenting capabilities could of course be one alternative.
    If you have an internal or external modem for the Performa, another way could be to use the telephone lines for transfers. A communications program would have to be used on both sides (for example, ZTerm or the communications section of ClarisWorks on the Performa).
    It is even possible to connect two serial modems directly. A simple line simulator (in principle, a 9 V battery in series with a 680 ohm resistor in one of the leads in an RJ-11 to RJ-11 cable), which can be built in a couple of minutes, is sometimes needed. Do NOT use a line simulator for units connected to the public telephone network.
    Yet another solution could be a null-modem transfer to a PC with a (DB-9M) serial port. This would require a null-modem cable (can be designed by combining a Macintosh modem cable (MiniDIN-8M to DB-25M) with a normal PC-style (DB-25F to DB-9F) null-modem cable . HyperTerminal or another communications program can be used on the PC.
    What do you have to work with (other computers/models/platforms)? Is this a one-time transfer, or do you plan to send additional files later? Is the intention to continue to use the Performa 5200?

    If you want to drag and drop ( don;t know why you would do this), you will have to check manually manage music.
    Why not just sync?

  • How can I convert a PDF/A file into a PDF file with Acrobat Pro X?

    How can I convert a PDF/A file into a PDF file with Acrobat Pro X? I'd like to modifiy the file which I have only as a PDF/A.

    There's two answers if you want to modify the file:
    You can temporarily turn off PDF/A Mode in your preferences, so they don't open as read-only. The problem would be if you do something to the file that violated the PDF/A standard, so you should always run a Preflight check afterwards to make sure.
    If you want to remove the PDF/A header tag, use Preflight again - it's on the Print Production Panel in Acrobat X Pro (which may be hidden, use the options menu on the Tools Pane to show it). There's a profile called "Remove PDF/A information" - choose this and press Analyze and Fix. Nothing else about the file will be altered but when you save and reopen it all the editing tools will become active.

  • Can't drag and drop a file into Photoshop for some reason?

    I don't know what made it stop but at this point it's beginning to bug me to no end. I can no longer simply drag a file into Photoshop. I now have to go to "file --> open" in order to get anything into. Is there anything I can do to restore the ability to drag and drop?
    Just to let you know I reset the preferences already and that did nothing. The other thing is I'm running Windows 7, however I've never had an issue with PS on it. Lastly I'm using CS4.
    Thanks for any and all help.

    You should be able to drag an image file from Windows Explorer into the work area if PS is open and maximised.
    At least it works that way with Vista  64. It won't work dragging it on to the task bar button or the PS icon.

  • I can't get audio or video files into iTunes from my computer. Please help!

    Using Windows 7: My wife and I have seperate iTune accounts in our respective computer profiles.  In my profile and iTune account, everything works fine.  In my wife's account, she's always being asked to sign into iTunes as an administrator. Also, her account will not allow her to transfer music or video files into iTunes by drag and drop.  If I click on "Add File to Library" or "Add Folder To Library", It will add the file but double it in the process so there are two of everything.  And to make matters worse, when iTunes open in her profile, it changes the color of the Windows theme.  Someone PLEASE help me. Thank you.

    Am I correct in saying that the file is on your computer? Is it in a format that iTunes recognises?
    If so, open iTunes, click on the small icon in the top left of the iTunes window and select Add File to Library. Navigate to the folder where the file is located and select it, click on Open. The song is now in your Library, but don't forget that the song's title, artist etc. will reflect the information within the file. So if the file did not have a song title or artist, it will appear in your iTunes as something like "Track 01", by "Unknown Artist".

  • How can I group fetched Adobe Ideas files into projects?

    How can I group fetched Adobe Ideas files into projects? The overview tutorial did not warn to organize your files prior to the one time fetch option. In Draw FAQs it is stated that drawings can be organized into projects. However, I am unable to determine how. If anyone has insight, please advise. I have so many ideas files that navigating Illustrator Draw is difficult.

    If you go to the Overview page, there is a thread about importing from Ideas. It says:
    "To organize your files prior to importing into Draw, you can put them in folders in Creative Cloud or on your desktop. Individual Ideas files imported to Draw will come in as single-page projects. Each folder containing Ideas files will be imported as a Draw project containing the imported Ideas files."
    Not sure if you can put individual drawings into Projects together on the device, but would be interested to hear if you come up with a solution.

  • Importing FCE files into FCP

    Hi,
    I have some old FCE projects. My question is whether I am import the FCE project into FCP?

    I think you can just do a file > open and open them right up. you might get a warning that you are opening an older version and of course once saving you probably won't be able to open them in FCE again... so I would make a duplicate first then open away.

  • How can I transfer a WMA audio file with DRM into iTunes?

    Is it possible to transfer a DRM, WMA audio lecture file that I download onto my Dell Inspirion laptop into iTunes? I can purchase and download the file using Windows Media. My goal is to get the audio file onto an iPod Nano. The organization that sells these lectures does not support Macintosh at this time and is only supporting Windows based machines.
    The Dell laptop uses Windows XP as its operating system.
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.4)   Use ITunes on Dell Inspirio w/Windows XP

    If I understand you correctly, first I burn the file onto a CD using Windows Media Player, then I can import it (rip the file?) into iTunes. After this I could download the file to my Nano.
    I want to make sure I know what you meant by "rip the file" into iTunes.
    Thank you for your help,
