Have you ever had video, but no audio in FCP?

I had a friend digitize footage(as uncompressed 8bit) for me on his mac at work. When I import the clips into FCP there is video, but no audio. Audio does indeed exist because you can here it if the clips are opened in Quicktime. Any ideas on getting the audio to play?
Thank You Very Much!!!

Welcome to the forum!
What codec is the clip? If its a muxed MPEG clip, you'll need to demux/convert it to an editable format prior to importing into your FCP project.
To find out what codec was used to make the clip, open it in QT and hit Command j, then click on 'Video Track' to see the specs.

Have you ever had the problem where you try to plug in your ipod, and you dont get anything.. Like it wont sync, but when you go on your Ipod you get the "Trust this computer" ? Please help

So, whenever I try to plug in my IPod I get nothing, I get the sounds of it being synced, but I open ITunes and I have nothing. When I access my IPod 5th gen, I get a message asking me to "trust this computer" this just recently became a problem for me and right about now I don't even know what to do. I backed up, IClouded, DFU, and even reset my Ipod. still the same problem. Please help

I'm having this same problem. I AM NOT HAPPY, APPLE!!! Sure glad I upgraded from a 4th Gen iPod Touch to this iPod 5th Gen that I cannot get recognized in iTunes. Jeez - for as much money as people pay for these products, it sure would be nice if they worked propelry...

Windows.old Folders ... Have You Ever Had A Use For Them?

That you know of. What if the old OS has a virus in it?
As I've said earlier - nuke it just to be safe.

Has anyone ever needed the Windows.old folders created when an OS is re-loaded or a different OS is loaded on a machine containing an existing OS?
Deleting them can free up Gigs of space and I do it when I have had to re-load an OS or have upgraded an existing OS.
Now, for a secondary question. I have a machine that has this Windows.old folder that I cannot delete. I have tried while logging into the machine as the Domain Admin and again as the machine local Admin. Each time I am being told I don't have the sufficient permissions to delete the folder. I have never had this issue happen before. The Windows.old folder is on a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine. Any suggestions as to why this is happening?

HT1657 Have you ever had the rented movie frozen have way?

It's happened to me 5 times. I rent a movie from itnes store and when I'm half way watching the movie freezes and I can't finish watching. Everytime I contact the apple support they reimburse me but I never get to watch the whole movie and they never say why this happens. They say the checked the quality of teh video and that it is safe to rent it again but I did it once and the same thing happened so nowwhen I get reimbursed for a frozen movi I don't rent it again. And every time I'm going to rent a new mivie I'm always hesitant the same thing is going to happen. Has anybody had the same problem'

Have you ever had this error when creating a SQLServer location ?

Hi all,
With OWB :
Name : RUSH
Description : [nothing]
Type : SQL*NET Connection
User name : RUSH_CONS
Password : ********
Network Service : TG4msql
Schema : "dbo"
Test Connection : OK
After that, when created, in TOAD :
Link Name : RUSH.REGRESS.RDBMS.DEV.US.ORACLE.COM
Database to connect to : [nothing]
User name for connection : "dbo"
Password : ***** (don't know, in fact !)
instead of :
Link Name : RUSH.REGRESS.RDBMS.DEV.US.ORACLE.COM
Database to connect to : TG4msql
User name for connection : RUSH_CONS
Password : ********
OWB says the DBLink is OK, I can import metadata. But when I execute... :-(
Regards,
Nico

I had to export from an other environment a same DBLink that worked and import it... Only way I found... :-(

Have you ever had Compressor go missing??

Tried reinstalling FCP and tried the fixes listed re: background process. I cannot get Compressor to open while in FCP. Has this happened to anyone else?

after I followed the steps detailed in the Apple link, Compressor stopped working altogether.
That's interesting because if you followed Apple's instructions to the letter and ended with that result it could mean that you have an improper mix of software components on your system. Therefore, somehow you've ended up with a set of software that is not internally consistent. What I mean (by example) is that if component A requires version 1.1 of component B your system may actually have version 1.0 of component B. It's not only the major versions of FCP and Compressor that need to be matched, it's also lots of smaller files and components that make up the entire FCP/Compressor package.
I suppose that this problem could happen if an installation or update failed, or if someone manually installed or removed a component that was not the correct match to your existing system. Or, it could even be caused by some third piece of software that was installed over your existing setup.
I can't suggest any way to resolve such a problem (other than with a complete or clean reinstallation of all of your software) and frankly there is no certainty that what I've described is even the cause of your problem (I'm only making a guess at what could be wrong).
I'd suggest that you look in your console and system logs to see if there are any error messages or warnings that might hint at what could be going wrong. You can view these logs by going to the Apple menu and selecting "About This Mac" and then "More Info..." This will bring up the System Profiler and then under the left-hand column ("Contents") go down to "Software" and select "Logs."
You will likely find a lot of messages in both of these logs, even some warnings that have nothing to do with your particular problem. Just scan through the information looking for anything that seems related to Compressor, FCP, Qmaster, QuickTime, or any warning about a missing or incompatible component that could be related to the above.

Have you ever had your iphone 3G S lock up and not even let you turn it off to reboot it?

The screen locked up while on pandora radio then it just blacked out and powered off. The battery was at 95% when it happened. I plugged the AC adapter in and powered it back on. It opened up to my back screen and the locked screen mode where it would not respond to touch. I took all the screen covers off and wipped it down and still no response to my touch. I then tried to reboot or power it off and neither has worked. I got on here and gave tech support my number to call me and the 800 number came up but it would not allow me to receive the call and it didnt ring. I guess i will just wait for the battery to drain down and power it off. I hope that unlocks it when i power it back on.

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Have you ever had a play with an iPhone 4 then gone back to your 3G?

Even with 3.1.3 installed you realise how slow the 3G is, everything is just instant on the iPhone 4, no lag at all, After having an iPhone 4 for a day I find it really frustrating using my 3G again.

HT201401 have you ever had a problem with a foggy lens - blurry pictures?

Looks like the lens in the back has a film over it. It is blurry!

Does it happen with pictures you take with the front-facing and the back-facing camera? Or just one of them?

How can I cut some video but keep audio running?

Hello
I once knew how to do this but forgot, and can't find it in any discussions or help files.
I have some shaky, crummy video but the audio in it is good.
I am editing the video, but I want to keep a running audio track from the original DV import.
"Paste over at playhead" is not the answer (unless I got it wrong).
I doubt this is the best way to do it but I am presently copying a clip; extracting the audio; placing that audio back into the timeline under the video; hacking up the video...and hoping the length is close to perfect. (Surely not the way to do it).
Tips? Thanks

David
You know, somehow your explanation made more sense than the iMovie Help file explanation. (Though it has some additional info that touches on what remains a bit of a problem for me).
In any case, thanks. I am using this technique right now. The difficulty that remains for me is how to deal with a short segment of video (to paste) over a 2 or 3 times longer segment of audio. The help info and my own experimentation show that the remaining space gets filled with black. Not very pretty or smooth.
Which leads me to my response to the other person who replied to my post...
*Glo H*
Yes. I am copying the clip so I can have needed video to fill the space as the audio plays. But I'm pretty sure this is not the smart, most efficient way.
(See David's reply).
I am continuing experimentation but am very much open to any other suggestions.
Thanks again.

And what is the point of all this? CS3 is now 7 years old and Office 2003 just the same. Yes, sometimes software has bugs and compatibility issues. Beyond there is nothing here to discuss on either end, given the circumstances...

HT201177 I have my macbook pro hooked up to my Samsung tv via HDIC. I have good video, but no audio. Can anyone help?

I have have my macbook pro hooked up to my Samsung tv via HDMI. I have great video but no audio from TV. Only what is coming out of my computer,
Never mind, I lreferenced some other posts with the solution. Thanks anyway!

Only MacBook Pro's from mid-2010 onwards support audio through the mini-DisplayPort. You will need to hook up a cable from the headphone socket to the TV.

Video, but no audio? - one solution

I have a 20" Intel iMac, and am running all the latest software updates, including QuickTime. I have been very frustrated trying to watch the keynote today and have been getting video but no audio. After trying many different things, including downloading and installing QuickTime again, I was getting nowhere. I called my son-in-law, who is an ex-PC guy and is now HUGE into all things Apple, suggested that I start up GarageBand, open a file, then quit the application and try the keynote again.
It worked ! So I thought I would share this solution on the forum and maybe help others.

Hy,
I had the same problem has you had.
Then I followed your clue, installed garage band, opened a new project and quicktime started singing again
It seems to me like it's a windows's like behavior!!!
Now I have garage band installed, and I really didn't want it to fill up my hard drive
But thanks for the head's up!
Cheers.

Good Video But Terible Audio

I have just got a Phillips SPC900NC USB web cam, I have got the iChatUSBCam 2.1 & Macam.0.9.0 software to make it work with iChat.
I get great video but the audio is very choppy and the spoken words are indistinguishable.
Can anyone help me to get it right?
Ive also tried Skype but cant get the video to work, I did get it to work once but again the audio was indistinguishable or not even there when the video was.
If people can help me on the iChat first as that is what i will be using to talk to my parents.
Thanks
Adrian

HI Adrian,
The original specs did say
iSight, Any Firewire DV Ouput Camcorder and Firewire web Cams
Eccam gave the option of External USB cams
Most of these are Web cams but the utility works for some camcorders that don't export in DV as well as those that use USB.
