How do I import a clip when the window automatically closes?

I was unable to even open After Effects CC when I upgraded to OS Mavericks. Once I realized adobe released a patch for it (the 12.0.1 "trial" update), the program opened. I thought all was fine, until I attempted to import a new video clip. It would not let me even move the clip, let alone edit it, before giving me a "grouping" error, and then abruptly crashing. Today Adobe released the 12.1 update, which seems to be running ok, except the window for importing footage automatically closes once opened. I can no longer just drag a new clip in to my composition either. How can I get by this?

  • My iTunes was working fine, all my CDs would import fully and quickly. Now they are importing slowly and when the CDs get to the last track they don't import and the CD drive just keeps spinning without doing anything! How can I fix this?

    I don't want to have to restart or reinstall my iTunes again as I'll have to redo all my playlists etc

    Likely that CD then. Check visually for damage, blemishes, etc., not that there's anything you can really do about those other than return the CD.
    The drive sits there and spins because it is trying to re-read the CD.  iTunes has error correction which is contributing to all this re-reading, I believe, and you may be able to disable that in preferences if you aren't picky about the result.
    You can also try other rippers such as Max or XLD.  I know those have configurable error correction.  I like XLD but it is slightly tricky to use until you find that for some reason the author has put all settings under preferences, not just the set once and forget ones.

  • How do I hide a clip in the timeline?

    How do I hide a clip in the timeline?  In the old version, at the far left of the timeline, there was a green button with a filmstrip icon. Clicking that toggled the clip on and off to let me see the clip below it.  Where is that button now?
    FCP X 10.1.1
    Mac OS 10.9.1
    iMac 3.2 Ghz Intel Core i5
    shoe size 10.5

    I have the full version of FCP-X on a new Mac.  I still have my old FCP-6 on my old Mac.
    I have something in FCP-X that looks like rows (tracks) in the timeline.  I have several clips that form a horizontal line and directly under that is another horizontal row of clips.  I call them rows or tracks.  Maybe that is not the correct term.  I just tried to create additional rows, and created six tracks (horizontal rows) each containing multiple clips.  FCP plays only the top clip, which is the same as the old version.
    I have found a way to disable a single clip, but what I want to do, and it was as easy as pressing the green button in FCP-6, is to temporarily disable the entire row of clips.
    Often I have multiple cameras shooting the same event.  I want to quickly disable one camera view and see the one below it.  If the video is chopped up into small segments, then It would take too long to disable each clip individually. 
    I wish they would have kept the old features when they upgrade the software.

  • How can I import data in to the digital word generator in Multisim?

    How can I import data in to the digital word generator in Multisim?
    I just  received this comment from a friend, a RADAR engineer, who has just down loaded Multisim.  He has been using HP/Agilent software.  He has a work around using a piecewise linear voltage waveform with data imported from Excel but this is not really a good solution.  It would also be helpful to import data from Mathcad or equivalent.
    "I thought I was about to be impressed with MultiSim but it ended only in disappointment. There is a word generator in the simulation instrument panel which can drive the DAC with a waveform and it can have thousands of lines of values. I opened Excel, wrote the formula to generate the time and voltage points for a chirp, converted to DAC values in Hex and then went back to the word generator in MultiSim to load the values only to find that you have to enter each value manually. It doesn’t even allow you to paste in a list of values from a text file. I’m not going to type 5000 values by hand. If you get the chance to give feedback to National Instruments please ask them if the paste option can be added to the word generator. MultiSim is useful in many regards, but in this case, it left me with the impression that it is considerably limited in capability compared to what I’m used to."

    Hi,
    You can load your data automatically in the Multisim word generator. Follow these steps:
    - Save your data file (in excel .xslx ir .csv format) on your computer
    - Change the extension of the file to ".dp"
    - Double-click the word generator in Multisim and click on Set...
    - In the Settings dialog box, click on Load and then Accept
    - This will prompt you to select the .dp file you have on your computer, select it and you're good to go
    However, in Multisim you have the option of creating your own custom simulation analysis and instrument.
    I will try creating the instrument and send it back to you but it might take some time.
    Multisim and LabVIEW are very powerful in test automation, with the custom instruments you create for Multisim you don't need to export your data file into excel from LabVIEW (or MathCAD or other tools) and then reload it into Multisim. The test procedure is automated instead.
    Please check this reference design about automated simulation
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7825
    Here is how you can create your own custom measurement tool in Multisim and LabVIEW, but as I mentioned, I will create the word generator and come back to you anyways

    I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device?

    First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
    Mac:  iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
    PC:  iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
    Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

  • How can you download premier pro when the icon doesn't exist in cloud?[was:pr]

    how can you download premier pro when the iucon doesent exist in cloud???

    In order to download the software, your computer must meet the system requirements to run the software.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-premiere-pro.htmlhttp://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
    The usual reason for not being able to download is that Premiere Pro (and other video apps such as After Effects) are 64 bit only so they require a 64 bit computer and a 64 bit operating system.
    If you're running a 32 bit computer and operating system then you will not see the Premiere Pro icon since the software will not run on your computer.

  • How to apply transitions between clips in the same track?

    Hey guys,
    I'm in Uni on Final Cut Pro 5 and all the videos and discussions tell of how to apply transitions between clips in the same track.
    I like to have my clips on different tracks so that I can overlap them at specific points but I don't know how to do this?
    If I have track one. . .which ends. . .and have track 2 beginning below that (and have it overlapped for a few seconds) I don't know how to enable the transition at the point where track 2 begins.
    Can anyone help?

    Yep I understand that.
    Let's say I overlap track 2 as I don't like the beginning of it. . .so I want the transition from the end of track one to track two to occur in the middle of track 2 - should I just trim the track to the point I want the transition to occur as opposed to have it overlapping?

    Time Machine is a back up you have to set up to back up before there is a problem like a hard drive failure.
    It is possible to recover files from a failed drive, but it is an expensive proposition.
    There is a faint hope that an app like Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro might repair the drive. You could try making an appointment at an Apple store and ask a technician there to take a look... the diagnosis will not cost you.
