How do I fix the timeline so both the images and the timeline are 1080p?

Hello everybody. I'm a relative newbie to FCP, but not totally new to the world of video editing. I've got a problem that I hope somebody out there can assist me with.
I've shot a lot of footage in HD (1080p) and have imported everything into a timeline. I've performed all my edits, transitions, music integration etc - now when I go to output the footage I realise I've made the mistake of doing everything in a 576p timeline.
I've figured out how to resize the timeline, but all the clips appear in their original 576p resolution in the middle of the canvas (ie huge bars around the image)..
My question is simple enough.. How do I fix the timeline so both the images and the timeline are 1080p? Is there a method to 'resize' all the clips to the new timeline? Will this resize the 576p clips or will they still be native 1080p?
If importing all those clips into the original timeline has destroyed pixels, then resizing to 1080p is definately not what I want to do. I want to retain all the resolution of the original clips.
Any advice would be very much appreciated. I've created nearly 300 edits in this timeline, not including all the effects and transitions. If I have to redo all this because I set up the timeline incorrectly I'm going to be rather upset!
Thanks everybody.

If you captured the footage as 1080 then the fastest way to re-size all the clips back to 1080 is to select all the clips on the time line and then in the menu bar go to Edit -> Remove Attributes. This will pop up window asking which attributes you want to remove. I would try checking the Basic Motion and Distort attributes and click OK. This should pop everything back to their original size and shape.
However, this will also remove any re-sizing or distortion that is intentional (ie to blow up a particular clip so you can focus on something).

  • How do I fix the itunes database?

    itunes gives me an error on every sync to my ATV.
    "Some of the items in the itunes library including, (16 podcasts) were not copied to the ATV because they could not be found."
    I know the podcasts are gone from both the mac and the ATV, how do I fix the itunes database?
    I have tried re downloading the podcasts and letting itunes delete them automatically after being watched, but i still get the error every time i sync. It is very annoying having to clear the error every sync.

    Re-creating the library described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    Make sure you sync with AppleTV first if you have purchases on there not synced back to iTunes yet.
    It will lose some settings eg connected AppleTV's, and possibly manually added metadata such as album art and text not automatically added on import or added after files imported - at least it did last time I did this.

  • Im using an iphone 4s with the latest firmware which is 6.1.3 but my wifi button keeps going grey how can i fix it? i rested network connections and it worked for a while and went grey again,what can i do?

    im using an iphone 4s with the latest firmware which is 6.1.3 but my wifi button keeps going grey how can i fix it? i rested network connections and it worked for a while and went grey again,what can i do?

    Have you worked through the Troubleshooting iOS and WiFi knowledge base article?  If not, see if there is info in there that might help.
    Is the WiFi greyed out on all WiFi networks or just the one?  If it does this on all then there may be a hardwaer problem that needs attention from the techs at an Apple store genius bar.
    Before that, however, try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears.  That clears a lot of iOS hang ups that occur.

  • How can I fix the 1st column width (member) in Planning data forms

    Hi all,
    does anybody know a trick, how I can fix the first column width in planning data forms? I need a composite data form (Planning 9.3.1) and the problem is, that in the first form the member names are longer. So Planning sizes the column as it is needed to display the full member name. The member names of the second data form are shorter, so the data entry cells are not exactly among each other for both data forms and that looks terrible....
    Thanks and kind regards
    André

    There are 3 ways of setting the width in webforms:-
    1. There is a global setting for input box length which has a syntax of FormInputBoxLength=30.
    2. When you specify the format for each of the dimensions you can choose to select the width of either a column heading or a row heading. In the following example, each time you specified the dimension ‘Account’ a format would be applied to its header. The syntax for this would be something like… HeaderOptionAccount=Length:50,Style:font-size: 12pt;font-family: calibri
    3. Each column can have its own width specified. The syntax for this can be setting in each of the column’s code. For example C6=Blank,Style:Background-color:rgb(203,218,231);width:3 would just show a thick vertical line as the width is so small.
    You can not set widths in data grids through the normal settings. You can manually change the widths and save the grid though. This can be done in the xml directly. For example… <HDRWIDTH idx=”0″ width=”50″/>.
    Then load the amended xml file back into the system.

  • IPad with a second iTunes library sync: all apps don't work any more...how can I fix the problem?

    I was used to sync my iPad (iOs 4.3.5) with my main personal computer (with windows 7 64 bit on it) but after the pc went off I synchronized the iPad to my laptop (windows vista 32 bit) just for searching iOs update...the result was that any apps work anymore!!!!! How can I fix the problem?
    Thank you in advance,
    Paolo

    If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Is it possible to uninstall the latest kitkat update ("improvement")?  If not, how can I fix the problems it has created?

    The latest kit kat "improvements" have made using my phone much more frustrating.  How can one roll back this operating system update to the previous version?  If it is not possible to roll it back, how do I fix the following issues?
    1) The battery timing has been greatly diminished.
    2) Gmail isn't syncing properly.   At least 7 times since the update, upon opening gmail, I see lists of messages that are sometimes over a year old, and not my current ones. 
    3)  The sound slider bar on the open screen has disappeared.  It now takes 4 steps in order to get into settings, and temporarily turn off the sound.  That is ridiculous when entering a meeting.  Not to mention that you have to repeat those steps upon the meeting's end.
    4)  Searching for a particular contact in people has become more complicated--much easier to select "m" when looking for Mary's info than to have to scroll through the very JITTERY and  way too touch sensitive sidebar all the way to the "M's" to even begin to search through the M's.  This is way too unwieldy.
    5) Emoticon symbol has replaced the symbol to move to the next line in text messaging keyboard.   I am not interested in childlike emoticons.  I am interested in writing a coherent professional message with appropriate spacing.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    You cannot uninstall Kit Kat from your phone. BTW what kind of phone do you have??

    You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
    there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.
    Seriously? It's physically broken!

    I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is slow in starting up and loads a number of probrams. How can I fix the problem?

    Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the slowness still occurs?
    Restart holding the "shift" key.
    (Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
    If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete any third party login items (-), you can always add them back with the (+). Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.
    Reboot normally and test.

    == This happened ==

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • How Can I Fix The Graphics Issue...?

    After having my computer for a few years, it started getting an artifact around the mouse, and when it did that, everything was frozen, key commands didn't work, and I would have to manually shut it down.
    I went to the Apple store, and they couldn't get it to boot, even with their external drive. The guy at the Apple store took my computer into the back, and a few minutes later, brought it out. He said he had gotten it to boot, without their external drive, but wouldn't tell me how. He said there was a problem with my video card. He said $400 to fix it.
    Not having the money, I left. A friend told me how to safe boot the computer, and now it will turn on, despite the artifacts and graphics problems. Why didn't the guy at the store tell me this? It's obviously the only way he could have booted it. He wanted to charge me $50 to back up my data, when I could do it myself under the safe boot.
    The thing is, when using safe boot, I have no audio or video functionality- the camera doesn't work, the speakers don't work, and the disc drive doesn't work. I've read up on this, and it's an issue for a lot of macs, from about the time I bought mine. They say there was too much glue used somewhere in the computer (2 or 3 little chips with too much glue or something), and over time the glue/ adhesive gets too hot, and spreads to other areas and ruins them (ie. my graphics card). That's my simplified understanding of the issue, anyway.
    Why won't Apple replace it for me? They won't let me trade it in, because it won't boot right, but this is an issue they were aware of at some point. I spent a lot of money on this laptop and it's really nothing more than a digital typewriter now.
    Does anyone know how I can fix the graphics issue? Aside from shelling out the money I don't have for something that's really Apple's fault? It'd be really nice to be able to, I don't know, watch things and listen to things. That was the whole reason I got this thing.
    Thanks for any ideas, feedback, sympathy, empathy or other comments.
    <Edited by Moderator>

    Ok, you are right, maybe I don't know it for a fact . . . but from all the things I read in various forums, there was a batch (or something similar) of macs (the exact kind I have) that did have too much glue on some parts, and it caused all sorts of problems for different people, most of those problems being with the graphics card. Apparently the excess glue overheats and leaks out of where it's supposed to stay, and whatever it has the misfortune of getting on goes to pot.
    I got very brave, thinking my computer was shot- I opened it, and there was, indeed, crusty glue coming out from under some ... things ... three square chip like things ... and it had seeped onto the edges my graphics card. Having seen the inside of other laptops, I know it was not supposed to look like that no matter how old it is.
    This whole issue happened just a few months after my (overpriced, unused) AppleCare expired. Irony?
    I did backup all my data and files (no thanks to the Apple people; and on safe boot the disc drive won't work, so I had to borrow my friend's external hard drive for backing up), and did a clean install with the original discs. It was a huge hassle, and when it was finally done, I booted my computer normally. It worked for about 10 minutes before it got artifacts all over and froze, at which point I had to force shut it down. I've tried the clean reinstall a few times, but the problem (I think) is that the glue inside already did the damage, and my graphics card is shot. So, I've been running it on safe boot for months. No music. No video. No disc drive. OH- and the best part- on safe boot, the airport won't work. I can't use wi-fi, and I can't take my laptop anywhere because I'm tethered to a modem. It's the worst thing ever. All of it. It's horribly depressing.
    I'm just really frustrated and irritated that this happened, and Apple won't do anything. I do realize they don't HAVE to do anything- buyer beware and whatnot- BUT as a reputable company they should at least let me trade in with the discount or whatever. I didn't have to choose Mac, it was the most expensive computer I looked at- but it has so many awesome functions and things . . . that I can't even use . . .
    As a poor college student I don't have the option to get a new computer or have Apple replace any parts in this one, so I just kind of feel like Apple screwed me over. Their fault? Maybe not. Their product? Yes, so they should want to keep me as a future customer. At least I think so.
    I guess this isn't quite a question. But I would love more feedback, ideas, anything. Has anyone else had this problem? Can I replace my own video card? Will Apple do anything at all? I love macs but I might never get another one, since this could happen again.
    And- unrelated- who changed the title of my post, and how, and why?
