FCP no longer recognizing Livetype files

Since upgrading to FCP 5 I am no longer able to import LiveType files.
I get a file error: Unknown file.
Livetype is version 2.0.2 - is this up to date?
any thoughts would be appreciated,
John Hepworth

Did you update the OS at any point? I've found that breaks "communication" between the apps because archive/install doesn't carry certain things over.
In any case I suspect if you reinstall the ProApps the problem may go away.
Always try repairing disk permissions first though.

Why is iMovie no longer recognizing mov. files?

My iMovie is no longer letting me import mov. files. Also, iMovie will no longer PLAY the .mov files I have already saved in my iMovie library. Does anyone know what might be going on here? Is it possible that some recently installed update may have caused this? Will I have to now convert all my .mov files to some other recognized file type or is there some way I can still work with .mov files in iMovie?
Thanks for any help. It's greatly appreciated.
P.S. I am using Roxio VHS to Mac program which is what is saving them on my computer as .mov files. Prior to a few days ago, it was all working fine. Then all of a sudden it will no longer recognizing the .mov files unless they are converted to some other file type.

FCE and FCP will not recognize LiveType files

I have FCE 3.0, also recently upgraded to FCP 4.5 (I work on both) Also upgraded to QT 7.4 from 7.0. The first time I tried to import a livetype file to either FCE or FCP, they would not recognize the files. They appear in the list of files, but are grayed out. I have livetype 1.2.1
Any ideas? Thanks.

I notice no one is able to answer this...doesn't anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,

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!

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. Any suggestions?

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. The drive is not listed in Disk Utility. Any suggestions?

Is the computer in you equipment line:
Dual Core Intel Xenon
(which is not a PowerMac but a Mac Pro) the one you are asking about, or do you have an older PowerMac?
If a Mac Pro, their forums are here:
Mac Pro
and, as Mac Pros have a totally different architecture from the pre-2005 Macs this forum covers, you may not have the same issues that can affect the older models. If someone didn't notice your equipment line, you could get advice that doesn't apply.
If you really have a pre-2005 PowerMac, read on.
If the stubborn external is USB and does not have its own power brick (i.e., it gets power only from the computer's UBS ports--"bus powered"), it may not be getting enough power. As electric motors age, they can demand more power than when new, and the power available on any USB port is limited.
The typical workabouts to making a computer recognize an aging, bus-powered USB drive are:
Get a powered USB hub (has its own power brick
Get a "Y" USB cable: 1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
The second gets power from two USB ports on the computer and often that's enough.
Remember that the USB ports on your keyboard seldom provide enough power even for a thumb drive, so be sure to use the USB ports on the back of the computer.

"Error occurred while converting the file 'songname'. The required folder cannot be found."
CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until computer is restarted.

I have the same problem. I recently moved my music from a Vista PC to a new Laptop with an external CD drive. It will copy one song from the CD and it will show in the Music file and then I get the message ' Error importing a CD - Folder not found'. I must unplug the CD drive and plug it back in. I have seen no fix for this problem.

Be careful, FCP is an open system which is great, but it allows you to work with formats that are not completely compatible with fcp and can cause serious problems down the road. You can check the formats of all audio files brought into fcp by selecting them in the browser and hitting command-9, Use compressor to convert all audio files to 48k 16 bit aiffs before importing to fcp. There's a preset for this format in the apple presets. You mention video files. The same thing holds. In particular, avoid bringing in h264 quicktime movies. Convert to an fcp friendly format like prores using compressor.

Problems using livetype files in FCP

hello,
i am working with a regular 48k timeline in FCP 4.0.
i have imported many rendered motion text files from livetype into my sequence.
what's peculiar is that once i render the text in my timeline, there seems to be a stutter of video everytime the text fades in and then again when it fades out...almost as if the video skips a frame....
any ideas of what this may be? looked at my livetype project settings and there doesnt seem to be an issue with that...i also tried nesting the tracks in FCP but to no avail...
thanks!
steve

..the files i am using as my source video and layering livetype on top of are quicktime files i exported from avid express pro hd....these were source QT files that i have not had a problem with in FCP...maybe livetype isnt liking it?
Well Steve you likely have a QT file made with the Avid Meridian codec. I'm not an Avid guy, but you might check with Avid to see if you can download a version that allows you to create QT files that OSX can use.

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.
<div class="jive-quote">Hoffman: How did you "restore" your computer?< </div>
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.

Seagate FreeAgent Go is making a clicking sound and the light is rapidly blinking. My Macbook is no longer recognizing it. Is there any way to fix it or recover my files? The SeaAgent is less than a month old!

Seagate FreeAgent Go is making a clicking sound and the light is rapidly blinking. My Macbook is no longer recognizing it. Is there any way to pull all the songs I have saved on it? The SeaAgent is less than a month old!
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
Or at least recover the lost data?
Thanks!

How to fix: the drive is in warranty, so contact Seagate for a replacement.
How to recover your data: Do you have backups? (If not, you really, really, should.)
You can try downloading Data Rescue, which will run in trial mode and let you know if the data is recoverable. (You can then choose to purchase the full version if it works for you.) A clicking drive, though, is usually (though not always) a sign that the drive cannot be recovered.

Canon SX260HS no longer recognized by iPhoto

After upgrading to Mavericks my Canon SX260HS is no longer recognized by iPhoto. When plugged in to a USB port the system report shows the camera, but iPhoto does not mount the camera. The camera briefly displays "communication error" on its display. The SD card can be read by using a standalone card reader attached to another USB port. Looks like some change to the camera communications in Mavericks is at fault, but other than using a card reader I see no solution. Help?

tulsamini:
Wow. You've answered nearly all the questions I was going to ask. What version QT are you running?
Try logging into another account on your Mac and see if the camera can be recognized there. If it is then there's an issue with your primary account. Also try booting into Safe Mode and again check to see if the camera can be seen in your primary account.
Booting into Safe Mode runs the File System Check (fsck) during the boot and only loads the basic minimum extensions, etc. needed by the system. See What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X). Again this will see if there's something that you've added that is causing the problem.
A workaround until you find a solution is to use a card reader. IMO, it's the best way to upload from a camera.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

LaCie firewire HD no longer recognized by my mac

I have a LaCie external hard drive that has worked flawlessly since I introduced them to one another.
I recently installed BootCamp to install Windows XP on a partition of my mac but when I came back to the Macintosh HD, the Mac no longer recognized my firewire drive as a valid disk.
The message says:
"Disk Insertion
The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer."
Then it asks me to "Initialize..." "Ignore" or "Eject"
Since this drive has a lot of very important files on it (films that I have done), I do not want to end up erasing any of the data.
I tried what the apple site said and I connected it with a different firewire cable, but I still get the same message. I turned off the mac and reconnected it to no avail.
I was wondering if 1)Maybe the firmware update I installed to use BootCamp created a problem for the Firewire port, 2) maybe there is a driver issue that came about after installing BootCamp.
Is there a way to restore my iMac to before I installed BootCamp or the FirmWare update?
Is there an easy answer?
I just need to get my external firewire hard drive working like old times without erasing anything.
I appreciate any help.

Okay, I figured out how to run Disk Utility from the OS X CD.
It still doesn't give me the option to mount it:
Does that mean it is not a problem with the firmware update? Both of my external HDs are giving me this message too.

After upgrading to mountain lion aperture 3.3 no longer recognizes DNG files. Is this going to get fixed?

After upgrading to aperture 3.3 on mountain lion aperture no longer recognizes DNG files.
I have many DNG files already in my library. Aperture shows the thumbnail and will briefly flash what I think is the preview of the file but quickly changes to a gray triangle saying "unsupported image format". After which the thumbnail is replaced with an all black thumbnail.
Needless to say this is extremely disconcerting. I am concerned that aperture is not only refusing to display the existing DNG files but is also simultaneously corrupting the library and destroying my existing images.
fwiw, these DNG files were generated with a leica.
I have not attempted to import DNG images into my aperture library but I assume that would not go well.

Susan,
if it is the native raw format, that no longer is recognized, then try, if registering the CoreTypes.bundle with the OS again will help. This will tell MacOS which raw format types (and other media types) are supported.
Open a Terminal window and paste following line into the window, hit return. This is one very long line:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -R /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Library
Regards
Léonie
P.S: Some browsers cause a blank to be inserted between /Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions
But it is "LaunchServices.framework", without blank. All in one line - the only blanks are needed between "lsregister" and "-R" and after "-R" .

IPod Nano 3G lo longer recognized after Update to iTunes 9 on Vista 32 Ulti

So i updatedt to iTunes 9 yesterday - only to find out that my iPod 3G is no longer recognized by iTunes. Also my 2G are not recognized any longer on this machine
ALL three iPods still work fine with my other computer whicgh is running the same Windows version but has still iTunes 8 installed.
With the IPod service disabled the iPods appear properly as a device - they show their assigned name and you can browse the content.
When the service is enabled and you start iTunes iTunes displays a message that says that it "discoveerd" the iPod but could not identify it
see heer http://0711.diy-punk.net/WOW/ipodfu.jpg
also as soon as iTunes gets involved the device is no longerreadable under Windows
i tried multiple reboots, restart of iPod service, rebooted the iPod, resetted the iPod - nothing helps...

Yeah... I hope apple solves this problem soon. =\
I use Windows XP instead of Vista...
This happened to me:
I plugged my iPod
Oppened the iTunes, iTunes recognized the iPod with all the songs, album covers, playlists, etc.
It asked for update. (Download & Instal, ok)
Finished the update, oppened the iTunes 9.0. Added a new songs but then I realized it didn't recognize the iPod (wich was plugged.)
I checked on "My computer" and I saw "iPod". Ok.
When I ejected the iPod it was clean. No musics, no Videos, no playlists. Started on the screen "Select your language".
I Tried reinstaling the iTunes but whenever I got an older version it said something like "The iTunes can't be started because the iTunes library has been generated by a new version."
Restarted my PC several times.
Rebooted the iPod.
Tried switching USBs.
NOTHING works.
Nothing at all.
even tryed the manage thing on "My Computer".
If they don't find a way of fixing this bug my iPod Nano is not better than a f**kin' Pendrive... ~.~"
Hope apple do something...
