FCPXML File is 0KB

I've followed the directions for exporting a FCPXML file, but every time I export the file it ends up 0KB--in other words, empty. I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I have tried it with several projects. As a newbie to FCPX (as opposed to FCP), I am certain there's some small thing I'm overlooking. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Lowell

Thanks for the response. Indeed - I've never heard of such a thing as you describe.
Wondering: what app are you using to open this video file and what is the video file format?
What I'm thinking (just in case you haven't tried this) is that you could do a Get Info on this file and then use the "open with" dialogue to assign (or re-assign) the proper application for opening that file and all other video files with that file extension.
Just a chance that might correct the System ownership issue.
Other than that, the only alternative I can think of is to log in as Root User and go from there. I think you would then be able to play the video but you won't want to stay on as Root User - that's for certain.
While logged on as Root User, you might again try changing permissions or even try using a video conversion app to change the video file to a new format - and then rename and apply permissions.
I think the real probability isn't going to please you: I think this file is corrupted and if it's the only copy you have, it's "junk." But the above experiment would likely prove that either way.

Every time I import an .fcpxml file into Final Cut Pro X, the timeline doesn't get imported

So I had exported an .fcpxml file from one machine, which i had to format. So, after formatting the machine, each time I import the .fcpxml file into Final Cut Pro X, The timeline remains empty

Use MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free software) to convert the media to something like ProRes 422, then import into FCP X.
MPEG Streamclip can cope with many codecs.

Final Cut X import issue with .fcpxml files

I am trying import an .fcpxml file into my Final Cut X, but am receiving the following error: "The document "File Name.fcpxml" could not be opened. Inavlid argument."
My editor created these .fcpxml files on a different computer, but none of the source files were changed or moved.
I greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions.

here is a link to the first video files i exported. the quality of one of them was pixelated, it was pro res 422 but with h26 encoding . the other was something I can't remember.
as for the type of format of the picture I am filming, it is also a screen shot that gives you the info on the format of the film clip.
hope that helps

Podcast exports to 0KB file

I have a podcast recorded for my show and this is the first one I have recorded since the update to Garageband '08. When I try to export the podcast it goes through the entire exporting process, taking quite a while, but the resulting .AAC file is 0KB in size.
I have no idea how to fix this. Any help?

I'm having the same problem. We have a 3 hour internet radio show that we later podcast and post on www.djstevian.com. You can see, the podcasts from the last version of GarageBand worked - but I did have to change the tempo to 40 to allow for the timing issue. Now with GarageBand 08, I find the tempo trick no longer works. Says my file is 0kbs once it hits iWeb. I wish it would give a warning message or something that the song is too long.
Does anyone have a quick fix for the time being? If you go to www.djstevian.com, you can see the old podcasts working fine but the new ones...they're a bust!

Unable to open project file. even though I just saved it.

Hi,
I just started back to work on a little FCE 2 video project after a couple of months. When I went to load the file, it said "Unable to open project file". I thought, "hmmm, I'm a beginner, maybe I'm not opening the right file." So, I made a new project with a clip and save it. Then I tried to reopen it. No go. Same message.
So, something is wrong but I can't figure it out.
My preferences are set to save the file on an external hd. The file icon shows up but says that the FCE project file has 0KB. How can that be?
I look using spotlight for the file, thinking maybe the file was saved elsewhere. It doesn't show up.
Sorry if this subject has been treated before. I searched the forum and didn't find a problem that matched my circumstances. One that was close.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Doug

Thanks for your reply Kyriakos.
Yep, I've tried the files in the AutoSave Vault and still Unable to Open Project File.
Also tried deleting the FCE preference and cache file, fixing permissions and doing a save as instead of a straight save, as outlined in the article below:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/good_apps_gonebad.html
It only has worked on one project which is the only file that opens now.
It's driving me nuts! I'm going to start doing some major jobs soon and can't have this happen. Maybe I'll try to reinstall FCE then if no luck it's time for a refund.
Would upgrading from FCE 1 to HD have anything to do with it?
Have you had any luck, Doug?

Linked file can't be downloaded from a PC...

I wanted to put up a toast file on my web site for friends to download. I dragged the file to the page to create the hyperlink. I then published to a folder and transfered the page file and toast file to my web site via ftp. The page is called downloads.html and is located at the root level. The toast file is located in a sub directory called downloads_files.
If I go to the page with Safari on my Mac, the file will download when I click on it. If I go to the page with Internet Explorer 7 on a PC (Win XP), when I click on the link I get a question where I want to save the file. Then when I click save, it creates a file of 0KB and immediately stops, just like if it finished downloading???
In the save dialog it says the correct name of the file but under "From" it lists the root level (www.xyzzzz.com), not the sub directory. Could that be what's wrong?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I just realized that my ftp program (Fetch 5.1) said "Putting file as Binary data" when uploading. In the Fetch preferences "Default Upload Format" is set to automatic. Did Fetch change the format of the file so the PC can't underastand it? The file on the server still has the same *.toast name.

File Receiver Adapter - writes empty message although ignore flag is set

Hi,
i have an file FTP receiver channel configured with content conversion. I also have set the "Empty-Message-Handling" flag to "Ignore", so empty messages with 0 kb are not written to the FTP server.
My problem is now: empty file are written to FTP server although this flag is set to "Ignore".
For example: A message with the following content arrives at my receiver adapter:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_ArticleMaster xmlns:ns0="http://ihle.com/tyredating/core"></ns0:MT_ArticleMaster>
The resulting file has 0kb.
Does anyone have an idea why empty message are not getting ignored by this setting? Although the flag is set?
Thanks in advance,
MS

ideally the file adapter will expect a message with no content in it. so i suggest you use a simple java mapping to check if there is any content between the tags, if there is no content then write out an empty string to the outputstream else pass the same inputstream out

Cannot Open File In Reader 9 After Using CutePDF Writer

After using CutePDF Writer to output a file from the print screen of Adobe Reader 9.0, I am unable to open it. I get the error "Adobe Reader could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged."
The file shows a Reader icon, but when I view it under Properties, it shows the file size as 0 kb. Something went wrong on export...
The file was created using Acrobat Pro 9.0.

You either used Cute or you used Acrobat. Which one?
If Cute was involved and the file shows 0kb, then it's a CutePDF issue. You'll want to talk to their people about it.

Can't import FCPX xml file to Logic Pro

I'm using the trial of Final Cut Pro X to give it a go.
I export a test project as XML so I could try to import it into Logic Pro (latest version). Export seems to work fine. When I go to Logic to import the test.fcpxml file, it is grayed out and won't let me select it.
Not sure if this is a FC problem, or if Apple needs to release an update for Logic to be compatible with FCPX.
Any insight?

This is a completely new form of XML. Very little works with it at this time.

Offline File | Zero KB CRW's | "Photoshop does not recognize this file"

The first symptom was when I got the dialogue "The file named "CRW_0004.CRW" is offline or missing. I located the file using spotlight only to get a "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." when trying to open it in photoshop. Upon closer inspection I found that the CRW file was 0KB. I searched for 0 KB CRW & CR2 files to find thousands of files. Heart sinks.
I recently started using lightroom to import and organize all my files. Now it seems something has gone gravely wrong. Any ideas?

But once I tried to Right Click>> show in finder and went through the relocate dialogue LR immediatly found the file. Reattempt to export files from "Photos that failed to export" folder went flalessly.

Fonts showing up as Unix executible files in snow leopard

Hello,
We just upgraded to new imacs with Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and almost all of our fonts located on the hard drive are showing up as Unix Executable files with 0kb. Besides having problems installing these into Suitcase Fusion 2, I think the fact that they are showing up this way initially may be the root of the problem with Suitcase. Is anyone else experiencing this and what can I do to solve this problem?
Thanks,
Kristie

So, the fonts are showing up fine on the mac with tiger (10.4.11) which is reading them from the network server (Windows drive)...
Whew! Good. Some servers are set up to allow this, others kill any resource fork dependent fonts you put on them.
By default, when you copy any Mac files to a Windows formatted drive (NTFS, FAT32), you end up with two files. Once for the data fork, and one for the resource fork. So say you have a legacy TrueType font named Basil. On the Windows drive, a file named Basil will be created for the data fork, which is the one you will see from your Mac. OS X will also create a file name ._Basil to store the resource fork data. You don't see this one from your Mac because it starts with a period. Any such file is automatically hidden from the user's view in OS X.
Anyway, you can try two things. One, copy the files from the server to the Mac running Tiger. When you copy such split files back to a Mac formatted drive, they are automatically put back together by OS X into a normal Mac data/resource file. If that works (they maintain their size once copied back to that Mac), then you can put them on a flash drive and bring them over to the Macs running Snow Leopard.
Else, you can have IT look into what's wrong/different with the network setup in the new Macs that they aren't reading the networked fonts the same way the Tiger computer is. Right now, they're not seeing the ._xxx resource fork data.
On top of that, assuming the fonts do copy back correctly to the Mac running Tiger, I would definitely create a permanent backup of all your fonts in Mac format, such as on a CD, and put it in a safe place.
which folder should I dump them in? My little house/Library/font? Or some other folder?
If there are multiple users of each Mac, then put them in the main /Library/Fonts/ folder. Then any user of that Mac can use the fonts. If you were to put them in the Fonts folder of you user account, then only you would be able to use them (or anyone else logged into your account). The downside to either of these locations is that they are on all the time, by default.
Since you're using Suitcase, you can put them wherever you want and activate them as necessary. You can even leave them in the /Library/Fonts/ folder since you still deactivate any fonts you want within that folder from Suitcase's interface.

0kb on scan to network with Windows 8

Dear Forum Members,
We have just up-graded one laptop to Windows 8 and are surprised to find that the scan to network function does no longer work properly. It produces pdf files with 0kb and nothing is scanned.
Using the HP solution centre, the laptop can however scan documents to the hard drive. All other functions of this printer still work as expected.
The scan to network function works with all existing Windows 7 Pro (32 & 64 bit) computers.
Does anybody have a solution ?
Many thanks for your help.

I just upped my VM ot 12gb (I have 8gb mem.
When I create a new project I give it a name, it then does regular saves automatically. With a stop motion project I noticed that does not seem to happen and if I do save as, it automatically erases the previous file or at least 0's out the file to 0kb.
how can I rescue this file. its a 4 minutes of non repeatable stop motion.......ugh

Publish bug Cap4 (0KB)

We have observed a publishing bug which results in .htm files of 0KB on multiple machines publishing different projects.
Often, Cap4 simply does not complete the publishing operation and just hangs w/o ever show the "View Ouput" option and green checkmark.
Reboots don't fix it, but if I keep at it, eventually I can get a project to publish after multiple reboots. I typically use Flash 8 but I have the bug with 8, 9, or 10.
We'll keep recording this bug in our logs, but we have only ever observed it in Cap4.
thanks,
Jon

I believe I spoke too soon. After further testing, I encountered the problem again and am unable to figure out the root cause of the problem. The problem may be due to the webkit-tap-highlight being added to the div tag. I am still seeing the problem when nesting text inside a square inside edge animate. However, I don't see it consistently and I have no idea where the webkit-tap-highlight is originating from.
Has anyone else encountered this issue when publishing in Edge Animate?
