FCP Preferences locking and also machines setting slocking

Hi,
I have FCP 6.0.3 with Apple Mac.I am maintains the 5 fcp machines and there are 8 vt editors every time they change the systems preferences and user preferences and also the machine settings.
Is there any solutions that i can lock the FCP preferences so that editors can't change. Even i am looking the solutions that if i will lock the machines settings that will also help me.
Please help me guys.

If you give each editor their own user account in Mac OS X. They will have their own set of FCP preferences. The main set of prefs on the Admin account will remain untouched.
MultiUserPro might also offer a solution -although I haven't actually tried it myself:

    Hi LifeGood,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  In iOS, FaceTime is not a separate app and FaceTime calls can be made as described here:
    iOS: Using FaceTime
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
    How do I make a FaceTime call?
    You can make a FaceTime call in multiple ways, depending on your device:
    iPhone 4 or later: You can place a FaceTime call using the following apps:
    Phone: While on a phone call, you can tap the FaceTime icon to invite the other party to a FaceTime call.
    Contacts: Tap the FaceTime icon to place a FaceTime call to the contact you are viewing.
    iPad 2 or later, iPad mini, iPod touch (4th generation) or later, and FaceTime for Mac: You can place a FaceTime call using the following apps:
    FaceTime: Place a FaceTime call using your contacts list.
    Contacts: Tap the FaceTime icon to place a FaceTime call to the contact you are viewing.
    Note: There is no FaceTime app on iPhone. Use the Phone app instead.

  • My ipod touch screen is white and i dont know how to fix it i already tried home button and lock and also restarting it but it still is white in the backgroud i can still hear the typing eventhough its all white

    My ipod touch screen is white and i dont know how to fix it i already tried home button and lock and also restarting it but it still is white, in the backgroud i can still hear the typing eventhough its all white

    Try restoring the iPod. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Why no system preference lock on Time Machine option?

    I have two Macs. One MacBook and one iMac. Both run recent and same version of OS X. Why do I not see the lock in the Time Machine option in system preferences on the iMac. The lock is present on the MacBook. How can I get the lock to appear?

    In the Security & Privacy preference pane, unlock the settings, then click the Advanced button and check the box marked
             Require administrator password for access to locked settings

  • How to move entire Collections to a new catalog, including hierarchy, smart collections and also Publish set ups?

    I want to move a large number of Collections, including all their hierarchy and smart collection settting, plus the photos, to a new catalog. I can only find a way of importing the actual photos themselves from the old catalog.
    Also is there a way to have the publish settings migrated to the new catalog too?

    Thanks for that.
    I agree that a single catalog is the standard approach (all my personal photography is contained in a single catalog over the years). However this is for a large corporate event which we hold each year. This year I want to use extensively the face recognition and I don't want it assessing or confusing people with those who attended the event last year. The even is over 4 days and results in several thousand images from multiple photographers. It's just cleaner to keep the events in their own catalogs for now (good for archiving and backing up too)
    Thanks again. Appreciate your help.

  • Can anyone guide me how to sync sms on iphone to pc and also what setting need to be done to make sure sms remain in iphone indefinitely - need to keep record for work purpose. thanks.

    Need help from the expert on how to sync sms on iphone to pc and how to make sure that sms on iphone is not being deleted - need to keep sms for office record purpose

    You mean take the cover off of the iPhone, to look inside?  I'd recommend against it.  Even with warranty expired, you might qualify for an out-of-warranty service, which for 3GS is $149.
    Other than that, any repair/service options are going to cost money.  You might want to see if a wireless carrier will let you get a new contract & phone.
    Out of curiousity, you're just using at as, basically, an iPod Touch, if there's no cell provider?  Did I understand that correctly?

  • Screen shows locked and Do not disconnect

    My 5th Gen is showing that it is locked and also Do not disconnect. How can I get it to unlock and be able to disconnect?

    Is the "Hold" button on top in the Hold position, and are you still connected to iTunes? If the button is on, slide it to the off position. If you are connected to iTunes, you may be set to manually manage and will have to manually eject the iPod. That is done by clicking on the arrow to the right of your iPod in the task pane on the left side of iTunes.

  • Magic Mouse  question. I have set this in Preferences by ticking Swipe between pages with  one finger and also Swipe between full-screen apps with two fingers,  however when I try to do the latter, the 2 finger swipe will take me only to the dashboard and

    It's a Magic Mouse question. I have set this up in Preferences by ticking Swipe between pages with one finger and also Swipe between full-screen apps with two fingers,  however when I try to do the latter, the 2 finger swipe will take me from the app that I am on to the dashboard only and not to my other open apps.
    I also find that Smart zoom only works with some apps, for instance not with Word docs or email.
    How can I correct this please?

    Just figured out it also does not work with the Mail app.

  • My colleague recently synched his phone and now has a full keyboard on the lock screen.  My lock screen keypad is set up like phone keys (alphanumeric).  He's wondering why his is different, and he also now cannot unlock it.  Anyone have this happen?

    My colleague recently synched his phone and now has a full keyboard on the lock screen.  My lock screen keypad is set up like phone keys (alphanumeric).  He's wondering why his is different, and he also now cannot unlock it.  Anyone have this happen?  He came to me yesterday and I noticed that his iPhone 4 still had old software (version in the 4's), so I advised him that he needed to synch it up to get the iOS 5.1.1 version.  He synched and now can't get back in.  He was entering his passcode on the lock screen (which wasn't taking) and I noted to him that his screen didn't look like mine.  Anyone know how to fix this issue, or does he have to do a full restore?

    He has set up a complex password instead of a simple passcode for his phone. If he doesn't know what it is, he'll have to restore. There is no way around a forgotten passcode.

  • WIndows 7 and Server2008 machines will not remember network discovery preferences, requires setting every start up or wake up.

    hello
    I wondered if anybody here could be so kind as to help me solve this situation
    i have two Windows 7 machines and Server2008 machines will not remember network discovery preferences,
    i am running software on the windows server machine that collects data and serves information to two windows 7 machines, and network discovery is required for this purpose
    these machines are configured in a local stand alone network configured as a workgroup the only other items on network are none PC based equipment that the server happily communicates with and reads data from
    once the network discovery is set for the network the system runs as expected but on every start-up (or wake up) the network discovery is lost and need to be re allowed. this is the case in both windows server 20008 r2 and windows 7
    how do i make these preferences permanent. so that it will restart and re establish communication its self without intervention
    am i missing a setting or if not  is there a way i can script the the selection of preference on each start(/wake)up.
    the final user need to be able to turn system on/restart and use it with out having to have any IT/networking knowledge to get system running.
    thank you for taking the time to read my query

    You can use group policy to enable network discovery so that it is always configured
    1. In the Group Policy editor on a Win7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 computer, open the GPO that you want
    to use in the Group Policy Editor.
    2. Expand "Computer Configuration", "Windows Settings", "Security Settings", "Windows Firewall with Advanced
    Security", and then "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security - {policy you have open}".
    3 Right-click "Inbound Rules", and then click "New Rule".
    4 In the Rule Wizard, on the Rule Type page, select"Predefined", and then select Network Discovery from
    the list.  Click Next.
    5 On the Predefined Rules page, ensure that the check box is on each rule that is part of the Network
    Discovery group, and then click Next.
    6 On the Action page, select "Allow the Connection", and then click Finish.

    We usually advice first to Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache in case of such problem and then do a check for extensions to see if any are causing the problem.
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Other possible causes can be zooming a page or having increased the minimum font size.

  • FCP and Time Machine

    I am a little confused as to why the Time Machine (when it is doing its hourly backup) slows down FCP when I am editing...
    I am running a Mac Pro with 16Gb's of RAM, the video footage is always on a separate internal drive and Time Machine is set NOT to backup my applications folder..!!
    Any feedback appreciated.
    Cheers

    When Time Machine kicks in, it will take some system resources.
    To what extent I can't really say, as I don't use it.
    My preference is to use Carbon Copy Cloner for backup. It can be used at any time manually or to a schedule of your own choosing. If you don't need hourly backups, it might be worth looking into. You can probably find it on versiontracker.com and the other Mac download sites.
    Lots of folks also like SuperDuper which does much the same thing.

  • I'm having a hard time setting up my external hard from with my AirPort Extreme and Time Machine Backups.

    I have been using a Mac Mini with an external hard and Time Machine.  I bought an Airport Extreme and have had problem setting up the hard drive using the USB port on the Airport Extreme.  I also just recently bought a Mac Book Air and hope to have both computers back up to the external hard drive using Time Machine and Airport Extreme.  I have been using the optical drive from the Mac mini to load programs into the Mac Book Air.  I think I'm just getting confused in Finder.  I am just not seeing the hard drive.  I ended up plugging the hard drive back into the Mac Mini and that is work fine again.  How do I setting the external hard drive up to the AirPort Extreme and use for both computers?  Or at least to start with the Mac mini.

    It's critical to understand that Time Machine (TM) stores backups differently between local and network drives. That would mean the TM backup on your locally attached USB hard drive will not be directly useable when it is connected to the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS). There is a way to copy a local version to a network version, but it is not fool-proof. When you do connect this drive and point TM to it, TM will start a brand new backup, leaving your existing backup as is.
    If your current backup is critical to you, you may want to consider getting a second USB drive to attach to the Extreme and use your existing one as a backup ... or use TM's multi-backup process to backup to more than one destination drive alternatively.
    So, at this point, you may want to make a decision on how you want to go forward to help provide a solution for you.
    To directly answer your question, when you go to select a destination for a Time Machine backup, the drive(s) that show up under "Backup Disks" are those that TM already recognizes and has backed up to. Those listed under "Available Disks" are drives (either local or on the network) that TM can back up to.

  • I carnt hear my message tone,the sounds it makes when the phone locks and opens.Also i am unable to hear my music playing from my phone but my alarm and ringtone are working.Can anyone help

    i carnt hear my message tone,the sound it makes when the phone locks and opens,also i am unable to hear music when playing from my phone but my ringtone and alarm tone work.Ive made sure the silent button is not on,and the volume button on the side of the phone is just showing it blank instead of it going up and down.To try and fix this i have reset my settings and restored my phone,but now its just skipping the music i have purchased from itunes when in a docking station which is now another problem i have as well.Can anyone help????

    Hello dbrookes,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like even though the Mute switch is not on, sounds are not making the, well, sound they should, and the volume buttons make a blank volume indicator appear on the screen that does not show the volume level.
    I wanted to recommend a couple of things.
    First, I would reset the phone:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If that does not resolve the issue, then you may want to try backing up to iTunes, and restoring the iPhone again but this time do not restore the backup and set it up as new to see if the issue persists without the previous configuration.
    Just incase you need it, this article will help with that:
