How can I find the file of my Apple Device shared project?

I'm not sure if this a Final Cut Pro question or an iTunes question...
I shared a project from Final Cut Pro to the Apple Devices (so that I could watch the video on my Apple TV). I found the video in Home Movies in iTunes, and actually watched it successfully through Apple TV.
But a day or two later, when I look for the video again in Home Movies in iTunes , I get this message: "The video [video title] could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
Yes I would.
But I don't know where to look in Finder to find it? Does anyone know where these video files actually go when we share them? (Is this one of those cases where it's a hidden file, and I need to unhide them to see them? If so, how do I do that?)

The step by step process...
When my project is ready to go,
1. I select File>Share>Apple Devices 1080p
2. That opens an Apple Devices 1080p pop-up window
3. I use the default setting (which says it adding to playlist "Library"
4. after a few minutes I receive a notification of "share successful)
5. I open itunes, and can watch the newly shared video on my computer screen (my other videos are listed too, but if I try to watch them I get the message "The video [video name] could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?")
6. I find the video on Apple TV by going to my computer, my library, Home Movies
7. I watch the video on Apple TV (some of the old videos are listed, others aren't)
8. Soon thereafter, I return to iTunes on my computer, and now, when I try to watch the newly-shared video, I get the same error message I documented above.
9. I return to the Apple TV and now I get an error message when I try to watch the video
This is iTunes 11.1.0.50
and FCP 10.1.4
Also, I'm editing videos with an external drive as my video source. I don't know if that has anything to do with anything.
Also, also, per your suggestion, I looked at the Library icon>Show Package Contents>Project Name>Shared Items but couldn't find any of the video files that disappeared. But I did run a quick test to watch all my steps, and I COULD find the file of that latest video. So now I know where to look. That said, I'm going to leave the latest test video there, and see if it disappears soon too.

how can i find the original picture in the correct event folder from an album folder picture? I can find the link to the original event folder, but is there a way to get right to the picture without having to search visually the event folder?

Depends on whatr you mean
Deleting from your phone does not delete from anywhere else
HOWEVER deleting from your Photo stream does delete from the Photostream so anyone looking at the PS from any device will no longer see the photo
But if your Mac iPhoto is set to automatically impor tphotos form PS or is you have manually imported photos from PS then onc ethey are imported they are on your Mac and change to PS will not affect them

How can we find the original XML Name of a Field

Hi All,
Just like the Reports To Field has XML Name as *[<ManagerFullName>]*
Can anyone tell me how I can find the Original XML Name for the "Reports To (Alias)" User field?.
Thanks in advance,
Royston

My scenario is that,
When a user saves a new campaign I want to change the owner of this campaign to the user he reports to i.e(Manager Alias) Since the Owner field takes the Alias Name.
To achieve this I have created a workflow to assign that Campaign to the Manager.
Here is the Code snippet
The triggering event is : Before modified record is saved.
action is Update Field Owner with UserValue('<ManagerAlias>')
Unfortunately its not accepting the ManagerAlias field....I have tried a similar scenario with the <ManagerFullName> field and its working fine.
Thanks,
-Royston

How do i find the original carrier for my iPhone 3gs

I received an iPhone 3gs as a gift but do not know the country it's coming from. How do I find the original carrier so I can activate and find out if they have an unlock policy.
Thanks

Probably only way is to call Applecare in your country and they may tell you who holds the lock. IIRC you IMEI and serial # are required

My Ipad and macbookair have been stolen. How can I find the imei code of both devices considering that were all registered on icloud?

My Ipad and macbookair have been stolen. How can I find the imei code of both devices considering that were all registered on icloud?

Unless you have configured iCloud on the MacBook Air and made sure that Find My Mac was turned on, you can't track that. And even if you did do that, that is not a foolproof method of tracking, as it relies on the thief connecting to the internet using the guest account on the machine and not getting in to your account and disabling Find My Mac or wiping the hard drive and installing a clean system.
As for the iPad, similar rules apply there. If it is a wifi-only iPad, it cannot be tracked any other way. If it has 3G, your wireless carrier may be able to help you track it.

How do I find the original I tunes library that my Ipod is sycned too?

We have been having problems with our computer and when we have got it back I have downloaded the latest version of Itunes. However when I put in my I pod to sync with it tells me that my ipod is already synced with another i tune library and it will only let me transfer the songs I have purchased from Itunes to the new library. Our I pod has all our CDs on it (which we no longer have) so how would I get them to the new library or even better how do I find our original library that we synced the I pod with?
Also last night I purchased 4 tunes from I tunes and they are not transferring to the I pod when it is connected?

How do I find the original photo that is used in one of my contact photo in "Contacts"?

Hi everyone,
I am in a bit of a dilemma. I desperately need to find and/or access the original photo used as a contacts photo in the OSX built in app "Contacts". I can resize the photo and I can see it in full but I can't find the original anywhere and in any way.
I'd really appreciate some help here, as the photo is dear to my heart but seems to have gone missing. It was originally scanned in but isn't showing up where all my scanned photos are saved. Eek!
If anyone has any pointers on where I could find this photo in its original size, please do share them!
Ta,
posies

How can I find the original newsfeed addresses in apple RSS mail

How do I find the original Mavericks 10.9 version?

I have updated my computer with all of the the Snow Leopard versions, 10.6.8 the last. I am now trying to go to the Mavericks OS X. I cannot find the original version 10.9 to download. I can only find the updates 10.9.1 and 10.9.2. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X 10.9 is not available anymore. Anyway, if you want to upgrade to OS X Mavericks (looking at your MacBook model, you cannot), you will get OS X 10.9.2 because the OS X Mavericks installer available in the Mac App Store contains 10.9.2.
To download OS X Mavericks, open the Mac App Store and look for Mavericks. If your Mac is not compatible, you will see an error and the Mac App Store will not let you upgrade. If you have got a compatible computer, make a backup of your files with Time Machine before upgrading and check that your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
OS X Mavericks requires a Late 2008 Aluminum or Early 2009 or newer MacBook. If you have got an Early 2008 MacBook, the most recent version you can use is OS X 10.7.5.

I see a copy--how do I locate the original?

I see a copy in an album--how do I find the original?

I see a copy in an album
What do you mean by a copy? Do you mean an additional version of an image?
If you want to see all versions of the image, select the project that the image belongs to. All versions are always in the same project. To open the project, ctrl-click the image and select "Show in Project" from the pop-up menu.
But if you only want to see, what the original imported image file looks like, select the image and press the "m" key. this will toggle between the original master image file and the edited version.

How do I find the PIN for myApple 4s device?

The passcode to unlock your phone would be whatever you set it to be. If you don't remember, you'd need to connect the phone to the computer you usually sync it to.
