How do I move my default final cut file location from the hard disk to an external thunderbolt drive?

I have FCPX and just bought a MUCH faster TB external drive and don't want to work off the internal hard drive anymore due to speed and space. When I first open FC it shows my external (Lacie) drive but then goes away and only shows the internal Mac drive. I cannot figure out why it would find the Final Cut Projects and Events files on the external hard drive and then make them go away. Please help if you know the answer. Thanks.

I've experienced that behavior if the external drive has a file named something like AVCHD, DCIM, movies or similar at the root level of the drive.

How can I change the default "Print to File" location from the Mozilla Firefox directory?

I have looked all over the Internet to find the solution to change the default of the location Firefox create the files created from the Print to File option. I have modified all of the instances of "print_to_filename" as one forum suggested. But, that was unsuccessful.

Autre façon : Ouvre un nouveau document. Il va être en A4. Dans le menu Fichier--->Format d'impression. Une fenêtre apparaît. Dans la ligne... Taille du papier, tu choisis... Lettre US; tu fais OK. Ensuite tu sauves ce document comme modèle. Menu Fichier----> Enregistrer comme modèle et tu lui donnes le nom, par exemple... USLettre.
Ensuite, va dans le menu Pages, va dans préférences et dans la fenêtre qui s'ouvre - Préférences générales - tu choisis : Utiliser le modèle... et tu cliques sur Choisir... à droite un peu en bas de Utiliser le.... et là, dans la fenêtre qui va apparaître, tu trouves le modèle que tu viens de faire...USLettre.
Voilà. Chaque fois que tu vas ouvrir Pages, ce sera USLettre qui sera là par défaut.
J'espère que ça va te satisfaire.
Évidemment l'idéal serait de pouvoir changer la template Vierge par une template Vierge US... mais j'ai pas encore réussi.

How can i move ALL of my Iphoto/aperture pictures from the internal hd to a external hd at one session? just need to how to do this. (I know this is a long process; just looking for a faster method).

looking for a way other than post and click.

I'm not at all sure what you mean by "post and click", but if you wish to move your entire iPhoto Library, then follow these steps:

As far as I know, you can set up Aperture to access its library on an external drive; I tried to find some info for you and found this support site for it - you might want to check it out. Also, you might want to check the manual on how to move the library.

You can't technically. iPads cannot directly read HDDs like a computer can.
You will need an app liie FileBrowser to do this. Of course all file operations will be done through the App itself.

How do I return my mid 2011 MacBook Air to Factory Specifications? Can I use the built in Lion recovery and wipe my data from the hard disk by reformatting it?

I want to trade in my old mid 2011 MacBook Air for a new MacBook Pro. After I have transferred my data to the new MacBook Pro, how do I reformat the hard disk to wipe all my data and return it to Factory specifications? Will the built in Lion recovery allow me to do this? I am currently running OS X Yosemite. Has the upgrade to Yosemite damaged or removed the original Lion recovery partition?

How can I reload my copy of Mac lion aftre ereasing the hard disk.

How can I redownload my copy of mac lion again?? I downloaded the the copy via
OS X Lion Up to Date Program then and due to some issues in the copy I tried to reinstall mac lion through rcovery tools upon booting but I received this message " a server with the specified host couldnt be found". then I used the original dvd to boot the system and install leopard via erasing the hard disk.

You can go to the Apple online store and purcahse a copy of Mountain Lion. This will give you a redemption code, which you can use to download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Unfortuantely, I'm not aware of any other way to legally purchase it. I have never seen Apple release Muontain Lion on DVD.
In terms of Apple Service, they just need the serial number of the machine to check the purcahse date. It is usually correct, to within a few weeks. A quick Google search should give you the correct number to dial.
I hope this helps.

How can i import old projects (Final Cut Pro 10) to the new (final cut pro 10.1.1)?

Hi everyone,
I have a folder full of backup projects and events of Final Cut Pro X.
Now, I have Final Cut Pro 10.1.1 and I don't know how to use those projects, since they were in a different folder.
Yhanks very much
Bruno

I'm assuming these are on a secondary drive. At the drive's root level make folders called Final Cut Projects and Final Cut Events. Move the projects and events you want to work with into those folders. In FCP use File>Update projects and events. Select the drive you want to update and FCP will update the projects and events in those folders. Save the originals as backups.

How do I use "Generate" to produce multiple file formats from the "Default" layer?

I have a Photoshop file with ~50 layers, each with unique file names for images I want to create. I want to produce in both .png and .svg file formats for each layer.
Rather than adding the code to each layer individually can multiple file formats be assigned on the "Default" layer? What is the correct syntax to do that?
Something like:
default 100% .png, svg/ *.svg
... to generate the .png versions and then also create a folder called "svg" that contains all the .svg versions of those images?

Dear Thomas,
I entered TM and found the sparsebundle under the Filesync library. However, it appears NOT to be recoverable and I tried double clicking on it but it doesnt do anything other than show a summary of what it is.
By the way, I really do appreciate your comments and agree completely. Something strange happened with my syncing of Idisk (which is set to "automatic"). It has been working fine for years. But for some reason, it stopped two days ago and did not let me know. When I tried to put something manually on it (through drag/drop), it never showed up on the Idisk on the cloud which made me notice and check it out by going to Mobileme through the browser. I then went to the tech service for Idisk and they explained that something probably got corrupted so just hit STOP syncing and then hit Automatic again. Which is what I did. Then everything from the cloud went to my Idisk on my computer and for some reason, the latest version of my excel spread sheet for attendance showed two days ago, not last night. so I lost wed/thursday classes. I KNOW it was on my Laptop which is backed up to TM every morning.. Thats why I believe that the latest file IS on my TM backup for this morning. But I can't get to it. Any other help would be appreciated.

How can I transfer my old iTunes (playlists and all) from the hard drive of my old dead computer to the iTunes of my new one?

So my old PC died before I managed to back up my iTunes library onto DVDs. I do however have the hard drive from the old PC with all the program files, files and folders on. I also have the iPhone 4, which has my top rated playlist on but that only holds about 20% of my entire music collection on.
Is it possible to somehow find all my old iTunes music, videos, playlists, podcasts etc and transfer it into the iTunes on the new PC without losing anything?
Thanks for reading :-)

im trying to do the same. how do you
Copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the old machine into <User's Music> on the new one?
im sorry i am totally inept when it comes to this stuff. can you walk me thru the steps to copy? please

Transferring files over from the hard drive of a previous computer. How can I get my library back?

A couple weeks ago, my old, old laptop finally breathed its last breath and shut off suddenly while I was using it. Various parts of it were broken anyway so I got a new one rather than try to figure out what was wrong with it. All of my files were totally undamaged since it wasn't a hard drive issue, so I just got one of those enclosure things where you unscrew your old hard drive, stick it into the enclosure, plug it into your new computer with a USB cord, and then can drag all your old files onto the new computer.
I could get all my old music back this way by dragging those folders, but if I want to get my library back -- specifically, my playlists, and ideally my info on play counts/date added/etc -- is there a way that I can do that? Is there some "Library" file, series of files, or folder that I can drag onto my new laptop in order to get those things back without having to recreate all my playlists and lose my play info?
Have been running Windows 7 on both my old and current laptop, and was using iTunes version 10.7.0.21, if that information is necessary. Can give you whatever other info you'd need. Thanks!

1. By default, it will be in the same folder as the iTunes Music or iTunes Media folder. If you don't find it, search the computer for items with that name.
2. Wherever you want.

Use MPEG Streamclip to convert them to MPEG-4, and drag those files into the open iTunes application window.
