FCP HD won't import Livetype files

Hello, I am running FCP 4.5 and I am trying to import Livetype files but it says it can't import the files. How do I fix this?

Sheesh, now you tell us.

Sorry bogiesan! <
Thanks, I get impatient with incomplete posts. We could have gone down lots of weird and totally useless pathways looking for answers that don't apply to your situation.

Here's the question you need to answer in some depth. We need to what you did and, if possible, why. On the reinstallation of FCS, the enabler files probably went to the shared users library or to another user. Start rooting around for fcp-related .plist files using Spotlight and eventually you will locate something that looks interesting.

HELP! FCP won't import LiveType files

So suddenly today, right after I rebooted from iTunes and QuickTime upgrades, whenever I try to import LiveType files into Final Cut Pro (HD 4.5 on OSX 10.3.9) FCP completely shutss down... any ideas?

Qt 7.3 > is causing all sorts of problems.
Although testing things is always advisable before getting into conclusions, chances are that the cause of your problems might be QT 7.3.
Just one thread out of dozens to read:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6103436&#6103436
Now, it is being said that the only solution is to wipe the system hard drive and reinstall everything.
An alternative way (not widely tested) is explained in this other forum:

(look for Fred Turner's post)

PS. Not sure QT 7.3 would work great with your OS version anyway!

IMovie Won't Import MP4 Files

For some reason iMovie '11 won't let me import videos. Specifically, I'm trying to add MP4 files that I copied to my hard drive from my GoPro HD 960. For GoPro users, I used the R2 (720p) format. They open properly in QuickTime and VLC but can't be imported into iMovie (or iPhoto). When I select File-->Import-->Movies and browse to the directory where I saved all the .mp4 files on my hard drive, they're all greyed out. And actually, it seems that just about no video files at all on my computer can be added (all greyed out)--even other MP4 files.
I downloaded MPEG Streamclip but that says "unrecognized file format" when I try opening the videos. I also installed Perian and rebooted.
In case it helps:
- I have an Intel MacBook running OS X 10.6.8 with iLife '11
- QuickTime info for the video format says "H.264, 1280 x 720, Millions; AAC, 2 channels, 48000 Hz"
- VLC says "Stream 0 (Video) - Codec: avc1" and "Stream 1 (Audio) - Codec: mp4a"
Any ideas? This is incredibly frustrating!

Why iMovie Won't Import MP4 Files?
Technically, iMovie does import MP4 video. However, iMovie only import MP4 files that are encoded with MPEG4/AAC or H.264/AAC data. And yet, MP4 is a video container format that may contain various audio and video codec (and sometimes even subtitle streams included). If the MP4 file is not encoded with iMovie support codec, iMovie will refuse to import this kind of MP4 video.
How to Solve Can't Import MP4 into iMovie?
In order to successfully import all kinds of MP4 files to iMovie, a recommended solution is to convert iMovie unrecognized MP4 to iMovie supported video format.
iDealshare VideoGo is just the right MP4 to iMovie Converter which can convert various MP4 to iMovie supported MPEG-4, MPEG-2, MOV or DV. Besides converting MP4 to iMovie, iDealshare VideoGo also helps to convert other video formats including AVI, WMV, MPEG, VOB, MOV, AVCHD, MTS, M2T, M2TS, TOD, MOD, XAVC, FLV, MKV, SWF, 3GP, MVI, ASF and etc to iMovie video format.

MOV is a wrapper that can contain many different codecs. The message you get is indicative of a distribution codec inside the MOV wrapper. You may need to convert the material to an editable codec before importing.

Lightroon 2.5 won't import raw files

Lightroom 2.7 won't import raw files from folder. After I choose files and click they come up as a white file that says (preview not available for this image ) and I can't go any further. Have no trouble importing JPEGS.

So, what changed? Assuming the camera is supported in LR 2.7 then something changed...you still haven't indicated the OS...I would try a card reader (takes the camera setting out of the factor).

LR5.6 won't import video files

After upgrading from 5.0 to 5.5 & 5.6 LR won't import video files.
Also won't play previously imported video files. Shows only previews.
Any ideas to fix this?

Strange, that some time it worked, but then again errors occurred.
Won't import or play .MOV files.
Just now updated to LR 5.7 and tried again. Same error.
It's saying: " An unknown error has occurred while reading the video file. Connnecting to Dynamic Link server failed. (12)" and nr. (1) also
No matter what camera type... Canon 5dmkII, Nikon aw1, Lumix lx3...all results in same error.
Osx 10.9.5
PS. seems i'm not only person having troubles...

I think you meant but "not" on effects tab. Were you able to before? Try trashing your preference files. you can do this by hand or use the free program, Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion.

FCP 4 HD won´t import mov files

Hi,
I exported a clip with the QT conversion option and added a few of the menu´s special effects (lens flare, sepia, etc.). The file opens all right with QT, but when I try to import it to FCP, I get an error message. This also happens if I try to open the file from my desktop using the "Open with..." option and select FCP.
I had no problem importing the file to iMovie, so I am really puzzled about this...

File error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown
I get that message. I wanted to know if you found a solution. I am using Final Cut 4.5
I just started getting error messages whenever I try to import a file. Whatever file I choose gets a window that says:
"File error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown"
Never had a problem with Final Cut before. I'm baffled. Please help. I already tried trashing the preferences.
I am not able to import any type of file at all. Quick time movies, audio, livetype, etc. I have been able to import all these files for several months. Now for no apparent reason I am unable to import files.
I have looked at different discussions of this same problem. There seems to be an access problem. The files are valid. They will open with Quicktime. They will import into iMovie.
So the problem seems to be that FCP cannot access the files.
Anyone know the solution?

IMovie HD won't import audio files

We have several dozen sound effects CDs that we imported to AIFF files through iTunes. Now, iMovie won't import the AIFF files. If you select them using Import or just drag and drop them onto the audio timeline, it just beeps and doesn't import them.
Importing them into FCP ans playing them back through the QT player and iTunes works fine.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'd really like to avoid having to reimport the sounds off the CDs.

I did find that if the offending files were upsampled to 48 khz/16 bit instead of the usual 44.1 khz/16 bit, iMovie would accept them without any problem.
iMovie's help file says:
"Tip: For the best compatibility with iMovie HD transitions, effects, titles, and the Ken Burns Effect, you should record your video with 48 kilohertz (kHz), 16-bit audio. Check your camera's manual for instructions on setting the audio bit rate and depth."
Even though these aren't video files with audio, it seems like it likes 48 khz/16 bit files.

Final Cut Pro crashes when importing LiveType files

#44: FCP acting weird - Trash Prefs
Shane's Stock Answer #44: FCP acting weird or unusual. Just not like is normally should
If the program was working fine, and now isn't, or just isn't working the way it should, the first things to do are:
1) Trash your FCP preferences. Download the appropriate version of FCP Rescue at http://www.fcprescue.com and run it.
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/trashing_fcpprefs.html
2) Open the Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.
3) Shut down for 10 min. Go for a quick walk around the block and get SOME exercise today. Come back, turn on the computer and see how things are.
4) (optional) Do the Hokey Pokey and turn your self about. Results may vary.
