Help! Video filters seem to be disabled...

I'm working on another person's Mac and I ran into an issue that I haven't encountered before.
When I apply a Video Filter to a clip, it allows me to adjust it (Viewer), but it doesn't affect the clip at all (Canvas). And I made sure the Filter's Display Mode was set to "Final."
I thought it had something to do with editing RED footage, but the same issue occurs when working with ProRes and Standard-Definition footage.
Here are the specs:
Final Cut Pro 6.0.5
Mac OS X 10.5.6 with 2x3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Thank you in advance!

SafeBrowser posted Recently, the Yahoo Toolbar and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to overlap invisibly over the top of the web page display. If you have either or both, uninstall or disable them/it, or see if an update is available that solves the problem.
See --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
I disabled the Babylon extension and Yahoo Mail works now.
Thank you SafeBrowser

video filters became disabled. My timeline now shows video in pre-broadcast safe look. black and white video went back to original color. video filters not responding at all. what happened?

First thing to do is reset your fcp preferences

Have you done any software updates or installed any new software recently?
What format are your sources and what are your sequence settings?

Video filters not working anymore in FCE 3.5.1

My video filters (i.e. color correction, levels, RGB balance) don't seem to be working anymore. The only things I've done lately are upgrade to 3.5.1 and also OS 10.4.8. I believe this problem started happening after the 10.4.8 upgrade.
I've been working with video for some time, but am relatively new to FCE. My workflow was to doubleclick to open the filter, make the adjustments to the filter settings, then drag the filter to the clip on the timeline. This was working just fine but just doesn't work anymore.
Other things such as transitions work fine. LiveType and Soundtrack also seem fine.
Anyone else have this problem, and how did they correct it? I have a project due tomorrow afternoon and would like to be able to fix ASAP.
Thx in advance.

Tom,
First:
I did trash my prefs, first thing. However, I might not have gone deep enough with this. I only trashed User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.FinalCutExpress.plist.
I produce a 10-minute weekly announcements DVD and as such have very little downtime for my apps. The project I'm working on now is much more important, although only about 6 minutes, but it's crucial and I didn't want to risk downtime if I screwed up by trashing something else and possibly causing me more work. So I've had a feeling maybe more should have been trashed.
Second:
To better explain my incorrect workflow, I've created some movies you can find here:
http://little-works.com/sepia_ex.html
In this first example, I created an exaggerated color for a sepia tone, something I would never use. If you click the link and go on to the next page, you'll see where I apply that filter to the clip in the timeline (it's actually a still picture, not a video clip), and beside that, you'll see the unchanged result. BTW, I did render that still after I applied the green sepia filter.
What happened when I first installed FCE was that any and all changes I made in this manner immediately presented themselves (in other words, they "worked"). Now I see no change at all.
I burned a rough cut of this project yesterday and it looks fine, but I've worked as an art director for too many years and am very picky! I know it's fine for my audience but a) I know it could look better b) I want it to work right.
I appreciate any and all help on this. I've been a Mac user for over 20 years, but am a newbie to FCE and am learning on the fly. So far my results have been great and very much appreciated by my audience(s), but I want to go much deeper into the program, as I am only touching the tip of the iceberg and don't want to develop bad habits from the get-go!
Thx --

Video filters screen setup

Hello All,
Help please...
I have tons of filters/plugins. When I open my video filters screen (from the effects window), I always have to arrange my window so that I can see the majority of the filters. Is there a way to have this setup when launching FCE HD so that I don't have to always re arrange my video filters window?
I have a custom setup that I am using with two monitors. Viewer, Canvas & Browser on one screen and Effects & timeline on my other monitor.

You can make custom window arrangements of course, but they won't leave contents of windows open as I think you'd like. Might I suggest that it's more efficient to access the filters from the Effects menu rather than from the bins in the Effects tab of the browser.

I seem to have disabled an ipad - is it possible to reverse this

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

In Office 2011 the function "share it by e-mail" seems to be disabled. that happened recently, just after the apple update regarding Java. Any idea on how enable this function again?

I was able to get to a support person who helped me fix this without charge. I guess it was my bad for not trying the right way to access support.
Anyway, they answer is this.
I had to create a new account on my computer. When I logged into the new account it immediately wanted an AppleID. I used my daughter's e-mail address for the AppleID. This setup the internet accounts correctly with her iCloud.com e-mail address. I was then able to access e-mail in both the browser and Mail. Not that complicated but nothing that I would have easily thought up on my own.
Thank Apple Support!

My iChat video conference seems to be malfunctioning.

Every time I want to send a picture to the video conference, all I see is a black screen. Who ever is on the video chat with me also sees this black screen instead of the picture. I've tried to send differnet pictures, restarting iChat, restarting my Mac, and searched all over the internet for help but nothing seems to work. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi,
Mountain Lion has Messages (An iChat+ app)
It changes the name as it add the ability to send iMessages to the stable that is iChat.
Effectively it will be a new app and this stort of Upgrade is likely to sort out some issues.
I am suggesting a change to the Bandwidth as it can "nudge" the app in to writing to the releveant .plist (stored Preferences) without major intervention.
The Same with using the Acivity Monitor (Applications/Utilities) to see if the URLFileTransferAgent is showing up when it should not.
This shows up when text chats Files get "Stuck" and are listed as "Waiting" in the File Transfer Window.
The other possibility is that the iChat Theatre process that Shares the file as a Video Feed substitute is not doing it's thing.
However until we can exclude one issue it is pointless trying to address another.
If you have a Time Machine Back up then you could use that to Reinstall iChat from a time when you know it was working.
Open the Applications Folder
Start up Time Machine so that it looks at the "History" of the Applications Folder.
Use the Arrows to go back in time.
Highlight the iChat App and use the Restore Button.
This will replace the "Current" version with an "Older" version.
This may work if the issue is with part of the App.
However Video feed is dealt with elsewhere. (Does Photo Booth work for instance ?)

Call-tracking code snippet seems to be disabled

I am trying to implement call tracking on a muse website. the code spnippet has to be insertet an the beginning of the body. I used the object -> insert html function and places the code on the master. If I look at the html code of the published page I can see that the code is there but seems to be disabled (red coulor in Firefox) and thus not executed.
Here is the page:

And this is what to code snippet looks like in Firefox:
Maybe someone can help to find an easy solution as I am not very familiar with html programming

Muse loads jQuery version 1.8.3, which is quite old. I would bet that MaTelCo's script requires a more updated version of jQuery. I've run into this with other Javascript that I've tried to implement into a Muse site. Until Adobe updates the version of jQuery that they implement, we are stuck with it.

FCP crashes when Video Filters folder is double clicked

I edit in FCP 5.0.4 with 2 monitors and like to keep the Video Filters folder open as a separate window along with the Effects folder. However, my custom window layout with this setting has disappeared and when I try to open Video Filters, FCP crashes. I've used FCP Rescue to no avail and have re-installed FCP software.

I am capturing to a Ciprico dual channel U320 array attached to a ATTO UL4D SCSI controller. I don't use the system for these data intensive captures all that often and sometimes I have no problem at all and other times I do. I noticed that the raw movies would play in the quicktime player ok without stalling or dropping frames so the issue seems to be with final cut. The last time I had this problem was with playing back 720p DVCProHD files and it would only play for a few minutes and then give a error message about dropping frames and suggesting lowering the number of audio tracks and changing the RT settings. I am thinking there must be a software conflict. We just installed FCP 6 and this was the first capture I did with it and had the same old problem right off the bat.

Video filters for FCP 5.1

Hey everybody-
I'm sort of new to FCP, and have a question about filters.
I've tested out all the video filters in version 5.1, but none of them create the effects I am looking for-- little color, almost pale looking.
Am I able to create this effect on FCP, or must I use a filter on my actual camera lens? I'm using a canon xl2...
Below are some shots from movies that replicate the look I'm going for:

Video filters not working when applied to sequence clips

I have looked through the forums and haven't found the solution to my problem. I am having problems with video filters on clips in the timeline. I have footage that needs color correction. In the viewer I created a 3 way filter for one clip, saved it, and applied to all clips in the browser. They all open corrected in the viewer. (I did this because i was reviewing the clips with my client).
When I put the clip in the timeline it does not indicate it needs a render, the filter does not appear on the clip, but when I double click and open the sequence clip in the viewer the color correction tab is there. I've removed attributes and tried again several times, both using the menu with the clip selected, and by doulbleclicking the clip into the viewer and apply the filter there. The tab is always there but the filter does not appear on the clip. It only appears when the process is done to clips from the browser inthe viewer. I've checked the RT for unlimted, I've done a render all video, I've checked settings under the render tab and filters is checked. I've gone into another project and have the same problem in a different project with different clips. I had a recent project where I used a blur effect and it worked fine. My video is DV and my sequence settings are DV NTSC.
I've run out of my ideas and comments from ither threads. What is my next troubleshoot? Should I delete preferecnes? I haven't done that with FCP, can I do it myself or use Rescue? Could that create other problems for me? Any other ideas?
I work in Afghanistan and have no resources here for any Mac support besides books and forums.
Thanks

Hey Catrina
Not sure what the issue is with your application of the 3-Way Color Corrector in the Browser. My guess, is that perhaps you only thought you applied the "saved" instance of the 3-way corrector but instead applied a default neutral instance of the corrector. How did you save the correction you applied to the other instances? A good method is, having applied and tweaked it as needed to a sample clip instance, you can drag a copy of it out of the clip's Filter tab and drop it directly into your Browser window. To check, then double click that Browser instance of the corrector to open it in the Viewer window and see if has the corrections settings as expected and no the default ones. If so, go ahead and drag it to another clip instance in the Browser and then drag that clip to your sequence ... has the correction "stuck" bow? But while we figure it out, for now, why not just apply the saved correction directly to the clips in the sequence? Regarding trashing your preferences ... download Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion. Very straightforward to use.
Cheers
Andy
