Graid not showing in FCP

I have downloaded my vidoe files onto my G-Raid through final cut pro. I accidently renamed my GRaid and now in Final Cut Pro the G-Raid is not showing up. I see the hard drive on my computer however I am not able to access any of the files from FCP. I am doing a huge assignment and need your help. Thank you.

Hello,
I actually took my computer into the Mac store and they were able to help me. THank you so much.

Flash CS6 not showing in FCP 7.03

I recently upgraded (well, for me it was an upgrade) to an older Mac Pro
Processor 2 x 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 16 GB 667 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
Graphics ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
I have installed FCP 7.03 (and in a seperate folder the hated FCP X)
I also have Adobe Creative Suite CS6 installed.
On my previous MacBook Pro I could export from a video sequence as a Flash Movie (.FLV). I could do this using one of the options in "Export Using QuickTime Conversion" On that machine I was running Flash CS4.
For some reason the Flash export option is not showing now. Flash is properly installed and opens just fine.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks
A.S.

"Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?"
Probably nothing. FCP 7 was last updated in 2010; Flash CS6 was released in 2012. Incompatibility is to be expected.
There may be a conversion program, but it's most likely you'll find it on Adobe's Flash forum.
Good luck

FLV export option not showing in FCP

i recently purchased CS5 Master Collection Student & Teacher Edition. i am told that with the installation of CS5, an flv export option should appear in FCP when using "Export QT Movie".
Unfortunately this is not the case, neither does it appear in the FCP export menu, nor does FLV show up in Compressor, when choosing "Quicktime Export Components" from the "add" button.
Can anyone help?

In this scenario, you don't want, Export > QT movie. You instead want, Export > Using QT Conversion. Then one of your "OPTIONS" should be "flv."
Unfortunately this is not the case, neither does it appear in the FCP export menu, nor does FLV show up in Compressor, when choosing "Quicktime Export Components" from the "add" button.

In Compressor, same sort of deal: you need to set up a file with "Quicktime Export Components" selected. Not QuickTime Movie. Then set the encoder type to FLV.

External drive not showing in fcp x but showing in finder

I have a two gig usb external hard drive formatted for Mac OS Extended, and fcp x won't show it in the Event Library, even though it is seen in the finder. I've put Logic Pro projects in there, but all I see is my other external firewire drive, 1 gig, and the Mac HD on FCP. I have a quad core i7 with the 2.3 gHz ... 8 gig ram. Aaaargh ... help? Thanks for your time! Tim

In the DiskUtility go to "File>New>Blank Disk Image"
Save As: This is the name of the Disk Image File that you create ending with the dmg (or sparseimage) extension
FIle Selector Box: Select any location on any mounted drive where you want to store the Disk Image File.
Name: This is the name of the embedded Volume that shows up when you mount the disk image
Size: Select how much space you need
Format: select Mac OS Extended (Journal), this is the one that FCPx recognizes
Encryption: set to none unless you are working on sensitive CIA instructional videos "How to start War No4 and pretend it is for national security"
Partitions: I think you can leave that to "no partition map"
Image Format: select "sparse disk image" "or sparse bundle disk image". They are pretty much the same where the bundle chops up the data into small block. Both have the advantage that they expand meaning, even if you select a 2GB size, the disk image will only as big as the data you are storing into.
Once you created the Disk Image, it is just a file that you can move around (drives, Flash, Disc, etc). If you can see the file you just double click on it and it mounts like a mounted hard drive and voila it will show up in FCPx in the Event Library and Project Library.
This little trick enables you to work off volumes that FCPx can't see: TimeMachine Volumes, network drives, SAN, non HFS+ volumes.
You can find more details in my new manual:
"Final Cut Pro X - How it Works" and in the upcoming "Advanced" version

AVCHD Files not showing in FCP

Hi, I've an iMac and FCP, everything is completely up to date but the Log and Transfer
won't show my AVCHD Files, on an SDHC Card, recorded on a Panasonic HMC151.
My Mac Book, still on FCP 6.0.5 and running OS 10.4 sees them fine and will play them
without problem.
I't's driving me mad, I bought iMac to ease pressure on the laptop, now I'm using
laptop to ingest, anyone find issues with 6.0.6.
Any help please.

If you waited a while...like a min or two...they would show up too. L&T seems to want to search the entire network for possible locations, even if you tell it "look here only." I can't explain it, other than that is what I noticed. When I disable airport, or disconnect from the network, they show up right away.

My sequence will not show up in Color 1.5.3 when sent from FCP 7

I cannot get clips from FCP 7 to show up when sent to Color. I had been able to get this to work perfectly fine earlier, but now for some reason, when sending a sequence from FCP to Color, Color doesn't automatically create a new project with the sequence in it. I've Googled for answers as much as I can, but cannot figure out what's going wrong.
By the way, the footage is from a Canon 7D, imported into FCP from PluralEyes 8.
EDIT: I've tried to manually export the XML from Final Cut into Color. Color will not even recognize the exported XML file. I've done what others have suggested online and deleted my Color & FCP preferences files out of my User/Library. I've created new FCP projects and tried to send to color from a new project. None of these have helped at all.

I just had this exact same problem. Clips from my FCP 7 sequence would not show up when I sent them to Color 1.5. No way. No how.
I solved my problem (at least for now) by simply restarting my machine. I realized that it had been running for days, and it probably just needed a reboot. Try it. It might work.
And yes, I'm running Mountain Lion, too. 10.8.2.
Good luck! ----Todd Ruel

Updated FCP X versions are not showing up

Updated FCP X versions are not showing up in my App Store upgrades. Apple has been less than helpful other than to verify that I'm looking in the right iTunes account. Can anyone tell me why I can't see the updated versions? I can see my updates for both compressor and motion.

You probably have the app purchase "hidden" in the App Store. See this tech note for further details:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5149
When you reinstall FCPX it should show as already purchased and allow you to just download it again. No charge as far as I know.

My fcp purchase does not show up as a purchased app

I purchased FCP X on my laptop and I want to download it to my desktop. I was thinking that this was ok license wise but I do not see it in my purchased apps page?
I downloaded a trial thinking I would enter the serial# but I can not find this either.
Please help if you can

I have the same problem and I can tell you straight up, there is absolutely no way I purchased this under a different apple ID. I purchased it in July 2012, and my previous ID was a work e-mail address that was inactive and changed since early 2010. I joined the oh so fruitful Mobile Me program and have had the same me.com address and ID since then.   Since my purchase I have always updated FCP X from the App Store under the same login, the only one I have had for almost 4 years.
But something is definitely up. Like the above, I have no hidden apps to click on any account page.   When I go to July '12 in Purchase history, it does not show up. (Purchase history btw is incredibly sluggish to navigate pages and browe, for no good reason I can think of. Really bad.)
I'm wondering if this has to do with 10.1 being out and my not having Maverick. I'm trying to reinstall to 10.0.9 but they seem to have made that process as obscured and byzantine as possible.
I wouldn't put it past Apple to have somehow placed my FCPX purchase under some remnant of my old account & ID. Apple had somehow created two accounts for me when I was simply trying to change my old one. The ordeal to straighten it out was ridiculous; I went through all bloody heck trying to get everything switched over to my new ID, and logins for certain iTunes related things were still accessible only under a by-then defunct email address ID - meaning I couldn't change anything with this account. Even more of a delightful surprise, I couldn't have anything changed for those account settings, because it requred an Email confirmation - and I couldn't enter my current E-mail address because "another account already has that address."   Yes, idiots, my account has it. Hair pulling stuff.
Anyway, back to present issue, I uninstalled my FCPx before finding it was not listed amongst my purchases - again, as it used to be with everything else there now.   Foolish perhaps, except probably not because performance issues were making it unusable and I had tried just about everything else possible including the full array of Pro Maintenance Tools and Onyx procedures.
So I used Time Machine to grab an old copy. Clicking it seems to have reinstalled it, but there was no re-installl wizard or anything, so I'm wondering if it means I have everything I need?
Also wondering how to get Final Cut back in my purchases where I can update in the future.
Thanks Apple. Another job so well done, I'm practically burnt to a crisp.

FCP X not showing Music, SFX or Still picture library

Although I have both iTunes and IPhoto operating fine FCPX is not showing either to allow me to select directly from them. Neither icon in the effects window (bottom right) shows anything other than in one case 'Photos' and in the other "Music and Sound". A work-around for the photos has been to import them as an event but that is messy - there are enough events already! BTW I have the latest FTPX version running and am using Tiger 10.7.2. I have also tried running FCPX with the other two programs both open and closed... nada!

Yeah you'd think living in Africa I'd know they have no Tigers here - its been a long day in the jungle!
So LION it is and I am running iTunes 10 (latest) and iPhoto 9 (don't want to upgrade that after the poor experiences people are reporting on the Community. ) I'd rather go Apperture if an upgrade is required.

Audio wave form not showing up properly in Viewer (FCP 7 running Lion)

For some reason when I bring in my audio timeline into the Viewer to see the wave form it does not show up accurately. I used to be able to pull it up and fairly easily see each location we hit the clapper. Now the clapper spike does not show up until I zoom almost all the way in on the wave form. That's a TOTAL PAIN since you only see a few frames at a time. Not good when you've got a couple of hours of audio on that time line with 30 or 40 clapper locations to find. It's funny, it shows an actual flat spot until you ZOOM WAY IN on it, then you see the spike. This seemed to start happening shortly after installing Lion. I am not for sure that's what is happening, but has just never happened before.

Have you trashed your preferences?
If you use Preference Manager (free) from Digital Rebellion, you can save you current preferences before trashing so you can restore them if you wish.

Songs not showing up in list view

I recently discovered that if I display my library under the list view some of the artists are not showing up. If I change the view to the one with all the album covers it is there. Also, if I am in list view and search for the missing artist it displays everything and plays fine. Anyone know what gives?

Have you tried trashing your preferences?
Faults like this can sometimes be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and quite safe).
With Pref Manager, you can backup the Prefs first, then if trashing makes no difference, you can restore all your settings.
If you trash them and don't restore them, you will need to go over your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then you can ditch the bad prefs and restore from your (Digital Rebellion) backup.
It's worth a try otherwise, there is some conflict.
I suggest you create a new user account on the problem machine and see whether FCP X works OK from there.
What codec is the problem clip?

Menu options not showing up in Color

The menu options, such as save and reconform, are not showing up in Color. They appear grey and I cannot click them. I have clicked out of my clips, what could I be missing? I am relatively new to Color.

Do you have a project open in Color? Did you "Send to" from FCP?

Markers Not Showing in Mpeg2

Hi,
This is a DVD Studio Pro Question that is directly related to FCP and Compressor. Basically I want to have chapter markers on my DVD. My problem is my FCP chapter markers are not showing up in the Mpeg2 file that I insert into DVDSP. Somewhere along the chain, I must be doing something wrong.
1. Within FCP, I made sure that all my markers were "chapter" markers.
2. I then exported a Quicktime movie with "DVD Studio Pro markers"
3. I imported that Quicktime movie into compressor and noticed that there are many blue markers. I then export an Mpeg 2 and AC3 file
4. I import the Mpeg 2 file in DVDSP. I do not see any markers on the timeline
I'm guessing that I messed up somewhere between #3 and 4. I've looked at all kinds of online documents and tutorials including this:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/compression_chapter_markersstone.html
I'm at a loss of what to do, and I'm on a deadline... help!
Alexander

In compressor, are you using one of the Apple presets to generate the m2v file?
If not, make sure the "Add DVD Studio Pro metadata" box in Inspector>Extras is selected. Alernatively just select "Include Chapter Markers only".

SD or CF cards not showing up in Finder

Hello all. I edit with FCP and always have created images of my SD and CF cards. When ready to edit I mount and import. I have noticed lately that I do not see the image of the card once mounted in finder. I see it in my desktop and disk utility but not in finder. I can mount anything else like a program and shows up find in finder. I went ahead and used my reader and put in an SD card. Same thing. I used another reader, same thing as well. Any suggestions on how I can get the card to show up in finder? Thanks

On the General Tab I do have external disks checked and in Sidebar, the card does not show up. I did check the overall computername and within I see the card, but does not show up on sidebar.

OWC RAID 5 not showing up in PPro Media Browser

Hello all,
I've seen other threads about OWC RAIDs not showing up in PPro and the solution has been to use the Mac's Disk Utility to reformat the drive. Disk Utility can't do RAID 5 though and that's what my 16TB OWC Mercury Elite Pro Qx2 is set to. If I use the File->Import command I can see the OWC RAID but it is not present in the Media Browser (nor in the window that pops up to re-link offline media). FCP 7, AVIC MC 6.5 and After Effects CC2014 all 'see' and interact with the OWC RAID just fine. The problem seems to be isolated to Premiere's Media Browser function.
If anyone has a suggested work around I'd love to hear it.

So it turns out the answer was in front of me all along, just use Disk Utility to format the drive and all is well.
What threw me was that Disk Utility only does RAID 1 and RAID 0 but since the OWC Mercury Elite Pro Qx2 is a hardware RAID I just set the RAID mode using the switch on the enclosure and then use Disk Utility to format it like I would any other disk.
The simplicity of the solution coupled with my lack of experience with RAID boxes proved to be my undoing. haha.
With that being said, I'd still like to see if Adobe can fix the issue w/the default OWC formatting tool.
