How do I increase the number of backups/previous versions for FCPX?

I had a fairly traumatic incident with an .fcpproject file getting corrupted. This resulted in FCPX crashing every time it was launched.
I was eventually able to resolve it by taking the file from "Final Cut Projects/Project Folder Name/Project Name/Backups/20120522-193628-MDT.fcpproject," renaming it CurrentVersion.fcpproject and dragging it into the parent folder.
Going through my projects, I've noticed that a few of my projects have an Old Versions folder and all of them have a Backups folder, but Backups only ever has one version. For safety purposes, I would like to know if there is some way to control the number of backup files / old versions that FCP puts in the project folders. Ideally this would be a setting in FCP's preferences window, but of course it's not there because Apple knows best.
Time Machine is not an optimal solution as my projects are stored on an external storage array (Drobo).
Thank you.

FCP X only provides one backup which is updated every 15 minutes.

  • How do I increase the number of characters in directory for Album Title?

    Pretty straightforward problem: the directory name for the Album Title gets cropped to 40 characters when iTunes manages the library.
    For most albums, it isn't an issue, but if I rip two different CD's of the same album and the title is longer than 40 characters, the files get mixed in the same directory unless I resort to a drastic (and undesired) shortening of the title.
    examples: wanting to keep different editions of:
    "The Rise and Fall Of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars (1990 RykoDisc)"
    "The Rise and Fall Of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars (1999 EMI)"
    in my library will cause this problem, and the recent release of "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" in both Mono and Stereo versions will force this issue on my library once again.
    I shouldn't have to butcher the name of the album in iTunes just to make sure the files don't get confused. How do I increase this limit?

    Thanks Jerry

  • How do I increase the number of lines presented in a drop down list?

    When I am entering a single character/number for each of a random selection of three letters in a password verification, I get a drop down list from A to S only, the first 20. Accessing letter T to number 9 means scrolling down. How can I increase the number of lines in a drop down box to 36?

    Hi canddski,
    If you are taking about an interface on a website, this is up to the ui designer. But there is a reflow that depends on screensize for the Firefox UI.
    You can use asp to control the list:

    That issue can be caused by the FastestFox extension.

    How can I increase the number of R3trans in SHADOW_IMPORT__INC Phase ? We have opened a servicecall with prio high but sap does not answer.
    Regards

    Hi Daniel,
    What database are you working on ?? Make sure stats are updated. This phase has lot to do on the DB part. So analyse more from DB perspective.
    Most important thing is check if you are using parallel import property of R3trans as per SAPnote # 1127194.
    Best Regards

    Check Mail Preferences, Accounts tab. Select the account, then the Mailbox Behaviors tab. See if you have it set to Permanently erase deleted messages when: One week old. (or less)

  • How can I increase the number of mail recipients beyond 100?

    How can I increase the number of mail recipients beyond 100?

    If you're just sending a one-off email, send it in several batches (around 30 recipients each is usually safe). If you do this a lot, for business reasons, you need to look at specialized email blast services such as MailChimp or Constant Contact.

  • How can I increase the number of pixels in an image?

    How can I increase the number of pixels in an image?

    You can't.
    The number of pixels in an image is decided by the camera that shoots the image
    With an app like Photoshop you can interpolate - this will make a guess as to what a particular pixel may look like based on the ones around it. Results can vary wildly and Photoshop is expensive.
