Final Cut X shows 86 GB free, but Finder shows 392 GB free, why?

I've moved my Events and Projects to an external hard drive and accessing them from that location works well. However, when I go to import new footage, Final Cut X shows that I only have 86 GB free. On my desktop it shows that I have 392 GB free. Why dont these 300 GB show up in Final Cut X and/or what files/folder(s) do I need to delete? Thanks!

How did you move the events?
If you did it by File>Move Event it should have deleted the old files but if you just copied the events over they will probably still be residing in their original place.
They need dragging to the trash and deleting.

What device?
What format?
How are you importing it?
Can you find the external audio with Finder?
Where is your destination file when you import it?

IIs there an export function from Lightroom? Did you export? Does the exported file contain your edit?
THe hard drive file size doesn't matter. What matters is the image size, it's dimensions in pixels.
IN FCP press Cmd-J to see the project properties.

i want to produce wedding dvds.whats the best software to use...final cut x I'm thinking but what about the quality of the dvd? Can i use idvd?

The only Programms I worked with are DVD Studio Pro and iDVD. You can burn a Video-DVD with Toast but there is no real option to design your Menu. Just a few themes as far as I discovered.
Do you have a Blue Ray Device to burn* the HD-DVD? Are the Bride and Groom able to watch the Blue Ray?
* which is only possible with DVD Studio Pro and not iMovie as far as I know.
This might help
For better quality I would go the Compressor & DVD Studio Pro workflow I just learned.
Export the Movie as is from Final Cut Pro and then use Compressor to encode the File.
Consider delivering the Movie in a different way like a private video on vimeo, a Website or on an SD card which is not really romantic...

Start iTunes, remove all your voice memos from your library (back them up if you need them), quit iTunes. Restart Finder. Done. I hope that helps!

Aging in Ar not showing any transaction but its showing all the payments

Hi can anyone help in regard of this problem
when i am going to run 7bucket aging report in AR it doesn't showing any transaction but it shows only receipts.
even the transaction is due i don't know why its not showing any transaction
we have just get upgraded to 12 release.
Regards
Nishant

I am suspecting the Transaction is not stamped with Legal entity, since you mention you have recently upgraded to r12.
Just see the comment section at the end of this page, it will give you some idea about legal entity consideration for transaction.

Check the status of all transactions, are they posted to GL. This cann't be a case..as receipt you are getting.

Push button ijn appraisal showing in backend but not showing inn portal

Hi Expert,
I would like to ask that push button in appraisal while configuring ESS/MSS package.
It is showing in backend, but not showing in portal.
Request you to give your inputs to bring push button on to the portal.

Hi,
are you using the same user to access backend and portal?. In backend, did you try from transaction PHAP_CHANGE with that user?. If you try with transaction PHAP_ADMIN in backed you are accessing as administrator, so you cannot compare the behaviour in PHAP_ADMIN and portal.
Regards,
Ana

IPads (3) show updates available but none show up in the screen

all of my iPhone (2) have the updates, my iPads (3) show updates available but none show up in the screen. I've restored all of them even going so far as to remove them from iCloud for iTunes and then putting them back on.

IT's a glitch on Apple's server. You can either wait it out or if you want to update your apps, go to the App store and the purchased tab and scroll through your apps. The ones with updates will have banners on them and you can update them that way.

I Just bought Final Cut Pro X and now I find out

I just bought Final Cut Pro X, I have used Final cut Express 4 with no problem using a firewire supported camera, Now I find out there is no video camers I can buy for Final cut Pro X for under $500, all the video cameras are now USB and for PC Microsoft based computers, What the He..? Does anybody know of a video camera (AVCHD) HD for around $300 to $400 I can buy, I really do not want to buy off ebay ...I'm not sure what Apple's policy is on returning software That has been downloaded but If I can't find a video camera for this software...I want my mony back. Help??
Oh buy the way I'm just doing short 3 min SHORT clips for web etc, I have a Mac Mini Ver. OS 10 10.7.3, CS5.5

I don't understand what you are saying. It doesn't make sense and is not true.
Cameras using FireWire are now a thing of the past. These were the traditional Mini-DV tape types that we have known for the last 15 years.
Almost every camera made nowadays is AVCHD which is ideal for FCP X and their prices start at about £180.
They use USB instead of FireWire but that is no problem whatsoever.
They work perfectly and are much better in many ways than the old mini-DV tape cameras.
I am a complete dinosaur, always harking to the past, but even I have embraced them as a fantastic step forward.
And they are very cheap!
I could go on and on.
So what is the problem?
You can buy a brand new AVCHD camera for £180 which will work perfectly with FCP X or you can use your old mini-DV tape camera.
It's a win-win situation however you look at it.
P.S. You can ignore the list of recommended cameras. It is completely meaningless as new cameras are being produced all the time and there is no way Apple could get hold of them and test them even if it wanted.
Take my word, almost every camera made will work perfectly with FCP X.
I would say that every camera will work but there may be some weird type to prove me wrong.

Final Cut Pro X & ProRes Major but Funny BUG

This must be the weirdest BUG I have ever experienced... And the most difficult to find. I found it via coincidence ;-)
I playback and use ProRes 4444 inside of FCPx. And generally there is NO problem doing so. Until yesterday...
In After Effects I converted a bunch of H.264 Canon 5DMKii movies, after denoising them, to ProRes4444.
I imported the movies into Final Cut X and immediately noticed that they were jerky in playback. So I loaded the original files and wanted to see whether they were jerky as well. They were not... Here comes the funny part...
The Original H.264 had AUDIO on them the ProRes version I had stripped the audio from as I did not need it. To better compare the two files (Don't know why I did it but I did) in the timeline I just copied the audio from H.264 file over underneath the ProRes4444-jerky file. Then I compared again. This time the ProRes was playing smooth as silk. I could NOT believe my eyes. I was cursing at the Mac but after smoking a cigarette and contemplating, I went back an deleted the audio from underneath the Prores 4444 file. Back to jerky. I put the audio back - jerkiness GONE...
So I did some more testing...
I took a completely different clip and imported that into After Effects.
I did the same denoising to it and exported TWO versions to PRORES 4444.
1 with Audio and 1 without it...
Then imported the two into FCPx...
We are talking TWO identical files here expect one has audio to it.
The one with audio played back silky while the one without was jerky.
I copied the audio (any audio will do) underneath the jerky one and it stopped jerking around.
I opened the two test files in QuickTime 7 and 10 and NONE of them were Jerky... This issue seems to pertain to FCPx only....
So if any of you export from AE to ProRes4444 and the guy on the FCPx station gets agitated because of the jerkiness,
before you blame adobe (like I did) tell him to just copy some sound underneath the sound-less video clip. That will take care of the problem,
untill Apple fixes the problem ;-)

Glad you found a solution, AtonMusic! Did you bring the issue up to Apple?

Final cut pro 6 not able to find movie during launch

hi,
everytime i launch final cut pro 6 it comes up with a message telling me a 'movie file cannot be found' and that 'without this file the movie cannot play properly'
the file is there, it has not been renamed
this happens no matter what project i try and open, even if i just click on the final cut icon in the dock
i've deleted the pref and the obj caches
still no luck - any ideas?!?

Usually you get that kind of error if the file is one you exported not as "self contained", if it is a file that you sent to Motion or STP and some render data was lost, or if the file FCP is trying to reconnect has the same name of the file you captured but not the same data (e.g. no reel name or different reel name, no or different timecode etc...)
Try fcp rescue (http://fcprescue.andersholck.com/) or just recapture your file...

Final cut pro x is open, but cannot see browser, timeline or canvas?

Basically, when I open final cut it acts as if it is opening and then nothing happens. However it is definately open as I can click on the toolbar to do stuff like 'new project' under file etc but when I do, nothing happens again. It's almost like it's working, but everything is invisible. I've seen stuff that only talk about the timeline or canvas being closed, however the solution to these is fixed through going to the browser, which in my case is also missing. I do not have it under another desktop and I've tried deleteing the system preferences etc. I feel like it's something really stupid that I'm not picking up on. Can someone please help?

Im having the same problem and this is what it looks like. I can see the tool bar at top but thats about it.
