Is there a plugin for FCPX Ver 10.0.7, I found one for FCP 7 but that doesn't work. I also downloaded The Canon XF Utility but although this opens the clips from the camera I am unable to get the clips into FCPX.
Fred,
Sorry, I mis-spoke. I do have Canon Utility installed on my SL machine, but have used it mainly as a file review interface and as a backup utility. My MXF files are then brought in via Log & Transfer in FCP 7, which requires one of the plug-ins (and as you noted, does not work with FCPX).
In the majority of situations I'm ingesting on location to a MBP running Lion. In that case, I have the option of importing them either into FCP7 or FCPX.
A came across this hack for getting the Canon plug-in to install on SL. It looks straightforward but I haven't tried it, so if you do, proceed at your risk. As for me, my plans are to partition my drive later this month and boot from both 10.6 and 10.7 as necessary.
Good luck.

How do I import video from my Canon ZR40 into my iMac?

I've got a Canon ZR40 DV camcorder that's about 5 years old and a brand new iMac. I've also got a firewire cable that connects the camcorder to the computer...but beyond that I'm clueless. When I connect the two devices via the cable, I'm not seeing anything come up on my desktop. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you!

First decide which editing program you intend to use; iMovie, FCE, FCP, Adobe Premier, etc. Read the user's manual or Help files for your chosen application to determine the steps needed: the procedure will vary somewhat from application to application.
Next, with the camera and the computer off, connect the Firewire cable to both units, then power up. Set the camera to VTR (play) mode. Open your editing program and follow the instructions provided in the Help files for capturing DV footage from tape.
Do NOT expect the camera to mount on your desktop as if it were a hard drive or optical disc.

I have some audio files on my previous phone which I would like to export to my new iPhone 5. I am told that you can only import files from iTunes. Is that true? If not, how do I import files from my phone - or my Macbook pro laptop-to my phone? Thanks!

iTunes will only import music from your phone that was purchased from the iTunes store. To transfer music from other sources you have to use 3rd party software, such as PhoneView.

Save the file from Gmail onto your computer and add it to iTunes. How you save from Gmail is a Gmail question (their own support pages), not an iTunes question.

How can i import tables from a different schema into the existing relational model... to add these tables in the existing model? plss help

how can i import tables from a different schema into the existing relational model... to add these tables in the existing relational/logical model? plss help
note; I already have the relational/logical model ready from one schema... and I need to add few more tables to this relational/logical model
can I import the same way as I did previously??
but even if I do the same how can I add it in the model?? as the logical model has already been engineered..
please help ...
thanks

Hi,
Before you start, you should probably take a backup copy of your design (the .dmd file and associated folder), in case the update does not work out as you had hoped.
You need to use Import > Data Dictionary again, to start the Data Dictionary Import Wizard.
In step 1 use a suitable database connection that can access the relevant table definitions.
In step 2 select the schema (or schemas) to import. The "Import to" field in the lower left part of the main panel allows you to select which existing Relational Model to import into (or to specify that a new Relational Model is to be created).
In step 3 select the tables to import. (Note that if there are an Foreign Key constraints between the new tables and any tables you had previously imported, you should also include the previous tables, otherwise the Foreign Key constraints will not be imported.)
After the import itself has completed, the "Compare Models" dialog is displayed. This shows the differences between the model being imported and the previous state of the model, and allows you to select which changes are to be applied.
Just selecting the Merge button should apply all the additions and changes in the new import.
Having updated your Relational Model, you can then update your Logical Model. To do this you repeat the "Engineer to Logical Model". This displays the "Engineer to Logical Model" dialog, which shows the changes which will be applied to the Logical Model, and allows you to select which changes are to be applied.
Just selecting the Engineer button should apply all the additions and changes.
I hope this helps you achieve what you want.

How do I import Bookmarks from Firefox 28.0 into Firefox 29.0.1?

How do I import Bookmarks from Firefox 28.0 into Firefox 29.0.1? I am running OS X 10.7.5 and just updated Firefox from 28.0 to 29.0.1. How do I import my old 28.0 bookmarks into 29.0.1? I've tried all the suggestions but nothing works. WHERE are my old bookmarks? Help, please!

Your bookmarks can be imported and exported from the Library (Bookmarks Manager).
*Go to the clipboard icon, click Show All Bookmarks <i>OR</i> press Cmd + Shift + B
*Once there, you'll see Import and Backup (see screenshot), you have a choice to choose between backing up as a JSON (Import and Backup -> Backup) or HTML (Import and Backup - > Export bookmarks to HTML)
Once this is done and the file has been backed up, you can import them using the same method (Import & Backup -> Backup for JSON/Import & Backup -> Import bookmarks from HTML (HTML)
One of our awesome contributors explained the difference between a JSON backup and a HTML backup that is very explanatory:
Restoring a JSON backup will replace all your current bookmarks (you get a warning about that), so if you already have bookmarks that you wish to keep then export them to an HTML file before restoring the JSON backup.
You can import that HTML file after you have restored the JSON backup to get your current bookmarks back (you need to remove duplicates).
You can't import a JSON backup to add (merge) bookmarks.
Importing bookmarks from an HTML file adds the imported bookmarks to the already existing bookmarks, so you may need to remove duplicates.
An HTML backup doesn't support tags and annotations, so if you want to preserve those then you need to use a JSON backup.
A JSON backup doesn't preserve the website favicons, so you need to visit a website to get back that favicon.

How can I import files from a windows environment?

I am used to a pc environment. How can I import files ie. PDF, excel, word onto my iPad? I imagine that this is done through ITunes but am unsure how? Are there iPad versions of say Microsoft office that need to be used?

I use Documents to Go, a program that will open all the file types you listed. With its purchase you also get access to a desktop program that allows you to wirelessly sync documents between computers and your device, without going through iTunes.
The other ways to get data onto your device
Mail it to yourself and then save it to (send it to) the app from the e-mail.
Use iTunes to sync the data into the app that will open it.
Use an online service like Dropbox or others. You put the data 'out there' on your PC, then access it on your iPad and save it into the app.
One thing to remember, the iPad is different from Windows and Macs in one fundamental way. There is no 'windows explorer' or 'finder' for the iPad. The operating system doesn't have access to the whole device and everything on it. Instead you have apps that access bits and pieces of the system and have limited ways to share data across apps.
Think of it as World War Two French Resistence.....all these different groups (apps) working on the same device, but most if not all of them have very limited ways to discuss/contact each other. The apps are 'sandboxed' in that they have limited contact with other apps. So the easiest way to deal with various file types is to find the app that handles that kind of file and use that.

How do I import video from a Canon Rebel T2i?

I just got a Canon T2i for filming. How do I import the videos from the camera into Final Cut Express 4.0.1? Or, what format do I need to convert it to?

Use MPEG Streamclip or Clipwrap to convert your T2i video files to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec. Import the QT/AIC files into FCE ... using an appropriate AIC easy setup in FCE. (The easy setup choice depends on how you shot your video ... 720p30, 1080i60 etc.)

How do I import images from a Canon scanner on Photo Elements 12 using a Mac

Hi
I have purchase a new Mac with the 10.9 version and I am using Photo Elements 12. I am trying to import images from my CanoScan 9000f scanner but I can't see the scanner in the Organizer, Files, Get Photos and Videos, there is no Scanner option. But I can use my scanner using the Canon Sofware for the scanner. Can you tell me what I have to do to be able to use my scanner directly on adobe Elements 12 ?

You do not use the 'Import' function under the File Menu to import P2 card content because the video content is still in its native form. For example, my Panasonic HPX 171 produces .MXF video files (amongst all the other files and folders within the overall heirarchy).
In order to access the copied P2 information you have to Log & Transfer it, as if it were a camera plugged into the computer. This process then converts the MXF P2 files into a Quicktime format that the Final Cut application can read and work with.
Take note that when archiving a P2 card as you did it is imperative that ALL the other files and folders are copied and saved. In other words, the entire 'CONTENTS' folder. It is this 'CONTENTS' folder that you navigate to within Log & Transfer when you want to import to FCP.

Can't import Cr2 files from my Canon 60D into LR5

I took a trip to New Zealand and I shot in Raw +low res jpeg. I uploaded the files to my little Asus tablet I had purchased right before my trip because I was running out of SD cards. This is the only place I have quite a few images as I formatted the cards to reuse them. I have transferred them to an external hard drive with no problem and then to my main PC which has LR5. It doesn't seem to 'see them' when I try to import. Any ideas? I tried opening one of the images directly into Photoshop CS6 and then I saved it as a jpeg file - then I was able to import it into LR, but I have 100's of photos and not sure I can do a bunch at a time, but at least all is not lost. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

When you say "grayed out" do you mean a gray area instead of a thumbnail as can happen when the monitor profile is bad or do you mean the thumbnail is dim and washed out to indicate an image that cannot be selected as they would be if they had already been imported into the catalog?
You talk about shooting RAW+(low-res)JPG but no where to you talk about what happened to those JPGs. Did the JPGs remain on the tablet when you transferred things to the external hard drive prior to attempting to import or are they on the external hard-drive, too? Are you importing them along with the raw files, but have Treat RAW+JPG as separate files unchecked, so the JPGs have become the sidecar file to the CR2s? The size of the companion JPGs shouldn't matter as far as what happens with the CR2 files when you work with them. They take up space on the card and the tablet memory but I guess you wanted them so you could review your pictures on the tablet since the CR2 files are not processable on the tablet so wouldn't be visible.
Have you imported your camera's raw files into LR before? What is different this time from previous times, the source of the files, or the fact the files were on a tablet, or that there were companion JPGs, or the type of import is different because you usually import direct from the card? What type of import did you do, Add, because the files are supposed to stay on the external drive as the normal place for your images, or Move (or Copy) because the photos end up on an internal drive, normally?
When you open the JPGs in Photoshop, do they first open in Camera Raw or do you not see the ACR plug-in and they open straight in Photoshop?
When you say the saved JPGs out of Photoshop are 1/5th the size, do you mean pixel-dimensions size where a normal 4000x3000 image becomes 800x600, or that the file-on-disk size is of the CR2 files is 25MB but the JPG is only 5MB on disk? Images don't just become smaller in pixel dimensions without a resize happening, and it is perfectly normal for a JPG file to be much smaller on disk than the original raw file, since JPG files use lossy compression.
The imprecision of terms "grayed out" and "size" is confusing to me. I worry that somehow you don't have any CR2 files, only small JPGs, or that the CR2 files became corrupted because they were put on the tablet since you've never done that before. Can you provide an example CR2 file, uploading to www.dropbox.com and post a public download link, here--a file that you don't mind others seeing, just so it can be checked for corruption?

How do I import clips from my Canon XA10 at the BEST QUALITY

I recently purchased a Canon XA10 - I usually use a Canon 7D (where I use MPEG Stream Clip to convert all clips to Apple Pro Res 422)
When I attempt to "log and transfer" footage from the Canon XA10 - it seems to be importing the footage as Apple Pro Res, but the quality doesn't look HD and is super interlaced...
Is the footage from the camera just crap - or is there a better method to capture footage at a higher quality?
Please help!

You should see a difference when you switch formats. Try shooting at the highest quality setting, MXP and see the results.
It looks from the specs published on the Canon web site that you have a frame rate choice of 60i, recorded at 60i; 24p recorded at 24p; 24p recorded at 60i, or 30p recorded at 60i.
The frame rate you choose to work with would be up to you. It would be an aesthetic decision, or it could be guided by the frame rate of existing footage you might be working with.
There is nothing inherently wrong with interlaced material, you just need to work with it correctly.
A good rule of thumb is to edit in the format you have shot, then use Compressor to make the output in format you need to deliver.
