Having trouble reconnecting render files

Hi-
I recently had to move a project from one hard drive to another, and although all the files are relatively in the same hierarchy (only the drive itself has changed) when I load the project in it shows almost the entire timeline needing rendering, both audio and video. When they were on the original drive, the entire project was rendered and it was completely done. Now when I look in my audio render folder and it seems that the render files are all split up in three separate project files... as time went on I would "save as" in order to have permanent backups, so maybe FCP is "confused" as to which of those subfolders each audio render file is in. The video render folder is similar, spread out in two different subfolders. So it looks like my render files are split among two folders in video render, and three folders in audio render. FCP never had any trouble with this arrangement before, keeping track fine.
When I select "reconnect" from the menu, "render files" is ghosted... it won't even let me select it. Am I really going to have to re-render everything to get my project back just because the files were moved to another drive?
Or could I try putting all the render files in one drive (move them up a level and out of the subdividing folders). Would that help FCP "find" them to reconnect with them? I'd backup the entire render file folders first in case it didn't work.
Thanks!

I'd not change project file names mid stream... it's really best to backup OFF the computer too. A USB flash drive works really well for this... When you change project names, and capture or render, the files get put into new folders named the same as the new project file's name... sort of messy.
You can put a flash drive in a USB port, and each day, just drag your project file to it, replacing the old... that way no matter what happens to your computer, the project file will not be affected.

  • Having Trouble Opening TIFF Files

    I'm having trouble opening TIFF files into Camera Raw. I have checked all my settings in Adobe Bridge and everything seems to be saying that TIFF files should open in Camera Raw when I click on then int and then into photoshop when finished editing in camera raw.
    I'm trying to open 32 bit HDR images saved as a TIFF file into Camera Raw, and there seems to be nothing I can do to get them there. I have tried everything I can think of. When I right click on it (cmd click I'm on a mac) the option to open in camera Raw isn't there. I have tried clicking and dragging the image into Photoshop to try and force it maybe to open into Camera Raw, and I have opened photoshop and tried opeing it up from mini Bridge. In mini bridge I have the option to open the image into Camera Raw when I click this nothing happens.
    I'm not sure what else to try I'm on CS6 and Camera Raw 7.0 .

    Alright I'll try that thanks!

    It might be that you need to update camera raw to version 8.3 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop or bridge.
    (i don't remember exactly in which version of acr that was added, but probably after version 7.0)

  • Having trouble saving tiff files to server

    Hi all,
    I'm having trouble saving tiff files to our server (a mac pro running OSX 10.5.7 client not server). I get the error message 'could not save "filename" because write access was not granted. The disk in question is set to ignore permissions and the other 3 Macs on the network have no problems.
    Bizarrely this only seems to happen when saving as a Tiff file, I can save as JPEG without issue! The file will usually save after a few attempts, sometimes six or seven save as' are needed.
    This problem comes and goes, but at the moment its pretty bad.
    This is becomming very frustrating as Tiff is our prefered format and we work as a team so have to save to the server.
    Any ideas?

    Just to expand on Buko's correct ansswer, this is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9

    I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9.  When I attempt to save I get message saying,"Bad File Handle".  There are several pictures on this file I'm trying to save...dont know if that has anything to do with the problem, just thought it would be helpful information.  Would really appreciate any insight anyone has to offer.
    Thanks in advance

    I am having a similar problem with a simple pdf form.  I have made several changes to the pdf and when I go to save, I get the message that I can't save the file due to a "bad file handle."  I have opened, altered, saved, and closed the form several times before, just not now.  No one else was working on the form.  The file format is still a pdf and nothing has changed.

  • Hi. i'm having trouble viewing pdf files in safari

    i'm having trouble viewing pdf files in safari.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Having Trouble Downloading Certain Files

    I just got a Droid Razr the other day after accidentally dropping my Droid 2 off a third floor balcony. I'm enjoying the phone so far, but I'm having trouble downloading certain files. I use my phone to listen to podcasts. With my old phone I was able to download them from their respective websites by hold-clicking the download link, and clicking "Save Link." Now when I do that, I get the little "Starting Download" message, then, nothing. Is there some setting or something that isn't right?
    Full disclosure, when I was transferring the files from my old 8GB SD card to my new 16GB card, I accidentally put the files on the internal storage instead of the SD card, so after getting the files onto the right card, I deleted those files from internal storage. I was thinking perhaps I accidentally deleted some system file or something that would cause this problem, but I really have no idea.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Try Opera Mobile because a number of stock browsers have issues downloading from some sites.... 
    As for the possibilty od deleting system files you should not have access to any system files that would cause and device issues because you have to have Superuser rights and the system wont have this without voiding warrenty..

    Hi,
    Do you have Adobe Reader installed on your device? You can check it under Settings-->Apps. If Adobe Reader is installed on your device and still the pdfs open in some other app, then you might have chosen that app to be the default app for always opening pdfs. You can clear the defaults for that application. Just go to Settings-->App--->Polaris(or any other app where the files open)--->Clear Defaults. Next time you try to open a pdf, you will be presented with the options again. Hope this helps. Please let us know if you still face some issues.
    Thanks.

    I am having trouble playing MFX files in Premiere Pro CC. The audio is out of synch. Is there a way to monitor the audio correctly?
    Many thanks

    Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
    Keep copies of the originals.
    Another option might be to try to install Perian.  Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

  • Having trouble with wav files and sample rates

    Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy 

    You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

  • Having Trouble Opening .EPS File

    I am trying to open a .eps file in Illustrator CS3. As it is trying to open the progress bar for Parsing EPS format appears. Once the bar reaches the end, an error message shows up saying  operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. Can anyone please tell me why this is happening? Even tried opening it up in Photoshop and paring error message appeared. I am using a PC on windows Vista. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Scott,
    I received the emailed file in zip. Tried opening it with illustrator and the same problem happened again. Any reason why it may still not be opening up? Do you recommend maybe reinstalling illustrator. This problem never happened before. Thanks

    Where did the file come from?
    Was it emailed to you?
    Email servers often corrupt eps files. It's best to have the person zip the file before sending it.

  • I am having trouble exporting .raw files to an external storage device.  Even though I export "original" they end up as jpeg files.  Any idea what I am doing wrong?

    I am having trouble exporting .raw files from my Mac Book Air to an external storage device.  Even though I am exporting as "original" they are being exported as jpegs.  Anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?

    Using the "original" setting is the correct way to do it.  Select on of the photos and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option.  That will take you to the file inside the library via the Finder.  Confirm that what you see if the raw file.
    If it is then try the following:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

    Thanks.

    go to the app store and search .mov   The pad plays a certain set of file types, but not all.  In the appstore there are several alternate players that will work.  Find one that does what you heed, and is priced right for you,and download it.
    ((WM Player HD lite is free, and look like the one you might want)
    I use xy player, and VLC, but I am not sure either one is still available.

  • Reconnecting render files

    each time i have a crash or a hangup and go into the auto-save vault for the last saved project files (i backup every 7 minutes), the media files connect but all the renders must be done from scratch. this can take up to an hour depending on the project. Nothing has changed in my settings. Why won't the render files reconnect? I am on fcp7.  i don't remember this happening in the past before i upgraded to osx 10.8.3.  is there a fix? when i right click on reconnect media, the render files tab is always grayed out. thanks.

    good question. each time i scrub the timeline with an effect using FxFactory (unrendered), I crash. Trashed preferences, uninstalled and reinstalled FxFactory. Not sure what the issue is. Have 11TB free on my capture scratch. HD has enough space, 16 gb of memory,  project settings are correct, etc. etc. Its a mystery and it happens at least 5-6 times a day. it is a real issue. i try to render all my effect immediately, but i still run into trouble.
