How do I reconnect missing titles?

I created a FCP project on my old machine, and create a custom subtitles title for it. Then I moved the project, which was on an external HDD, to a new machine, and now the titles are missing.
On the old machine, I can't export the titles to a file, only into FCP itself, so I don't know what to do...

I seem to have this or a related issue. I'm pretty sure that part of the problem is that I don't quite understand how motion and FCPX interract--I may simplly be misusing or not following the intended project flow. My issue:
Every time I open a project, FCPX re-renders any "customized" (that is, _any_) text. When it does this, the majority of the text gets lost, replaced with the original lorem ipsum placeholder. I'm guessing the re-render is part of the issue--that FCPX loses track of the rendered text and re-creates it, only doesn't actually use the text I've added. I wouldn't mind the re-render if it would render correctly! I generally duplicate a title from earlier in a project in order to avoid formatting and timing from scratch--makes me wonder if this is related since it seems that the last-edited title "sticks" while the rest reset.
System Info:
2.93 cor i7 iMac with 8GB ram
OS X 10.6.8
FCP X 10.0.2
external (of course) lacie video project drive
I hesitate to mention the external drive since I'm afraid that will be the focus of any answers, but that aside, is there a titling workflow I should be using that would fix the missing text issue?

  • How do i reconnect missing generators?

    I used the "duplicate project" feature to move my project to another machine so I could work on the road but I'm getting the 'missing media' warning on all of my custom Motion Generators. I know the custom Motion Genrerators are on my laptop because I can see them in the effects browser when I launch a new project.
    So, two questions:
    1) why would FCP tell me my custom generators missing when I open this project on my laptop (even though they're there)
    2) how do I reconnect them? I only see an option to reconnect referenced video clips, not generators.
    Thanks for any help!

    I am using windows

    lightroom 5 is not showing previous successfully imported images and images are not identified as missing, there are no images shown in the library, how do  I reconnect missing images?

    If the images are not identified as missing ... then you can't reconnect them
    But I'm not really sure what is happening, as I don't understand your description of the problem, could you show us a screen capture? Or describe what appears on your screen in much more detail...

  • How do you find missing titles, effects, and generators in final cut pro x?

    Actually, that's only one of two questions...
    ONE
    When I attempt to export a movie, uncompressed, not through Compressor and not sharing to an Apple device, I get an error saying my Project has "missing or offline titles, effects, or generators."
    There is a little yellow warning triangle next to the project name.
    But there are no little yellow warning triangles next to anything in my libraries, and everything plays through in the Timeline.
    Before exporting, how can I identify the supposedly missing elements???
    TWO
    After attempting to export the same movie via the Share item to an iiPhone, i received a Quicktime Error: -50.
    Interpretation, please?

    I recently added a new plugin (mObject) and was experimenting with it. I decided to create a "temporary" library on my root drive since it's the fastest in my setup. I prefer to have major files like the library at the top level of my drives, and for the internal drive, that's outside my User folder. That's when all the trouble started.  I would manually start a render and FCPX would not stop... would not completely render the clip... I would get "dashed" orange render lines over the clip. The only way to stop the rendering was to add something new to the storyline (that includes going into background tasks and trying to stop or pause the rendering from there!)  Once I moved the library back into my user folder (and inside Movies), all the rendering problems stopped.
    The only connection I can make is that FCPX is getting hung up on user permissions and the "current user". A lot of these issues started when I upgraded to a new iMac and restored all my old software (from the previous iMac) from Time Machine. It made me alter my user name for the new machine and I had some segments on this new machine with the older user permissions which I had to manually change to the new username in many cases.
    If you have strict (user only) permissions on your RAID, try loosening them or make sure that you add your username to the list with read/write permissions. (? perhaps.)

  • How do I reconnect missing files in the Slideshow Editor?

    I created a slideshow and set up everything (pan/zoom, size, etc) and it worked fine.
    I saved the project before closing it and had created an output video at 800x600. For some reason I could not create the 1024x768 video.
    After shutting down for the night I tried to reopen it again and see if the 1024x768 would work. We will be showing this video on a 12 foot screen of this 1024x768 dimension pixel size… so I like to save it at that dimension.
    When I opened the “Slideshow Editor” many of the pictures were missing. I was able to reconnect the pictures in the “Organizer” but they are still missing in the “Slideshow Editor”. It appears that the pictures that are missing are all from one windows folder. Another folder contents are fine.
    FYI:
    For some reason the pictures had shown up as linked to my external drive… where I have my backup files.
    I did get them all linked (reconnected) in the Organizer to my C drive but they still do not show up in the “Slideshow Editor”. I did change (in windows) the file location of these files to get the project better reorganized. That probably kicked off the disconnect in the first place.
    Is there some way to get all of these pictures in the “Slideshow Editor” reconnected? It is going to take about 5 hours of work to redo this project if I can not reconnect to these files. Since it was so easy in the Organizer it seems like there should be a way to do this in the “Slideshow Editor”.
    I am using “Windows XP” and “Photoshop Elements 8”.
    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    I know i can do that... the point is i do not want to spend 5 more hours rebuilding the project.
    What you are suggesting is just that... starting over.
    I would like to correct the problem in the "Slideshow Editor".

  • How do I reconnect missing media files?

    I have imported an iMovie project but the links to the Media files are broken.  How do I recconect in FCPX

    If you have the original media files you can do the following ...  Select a clip that has a missing media file from your timeline.  Control Click and choose Reveal in Event Browser.  The event the clip is in and the clip icon should appear in the event browser.  If you had previously selected only a section of the clip a yellow border will show the part of the clip you had used.  Be careful not to run your cursor over that clip so as not to change the yellow border.  Go to the File/Import ... File menu selection and point to the location of the original clip. Import the clip.  The icon in the event browser and the associated clip on your timeline should fill in with the clip you just imported.  If you had applied effects to the clip on the timeline they should still be there, and you can verify that by clicking on the timeline clip and looking at the Video tab under the Inspector window.  This method works well for me in generic cases ... not sure if you have a different iMovie-related issue coming into play.  Best wishes.

  • How to reconnect missing file from iCloud on PSE 12?

    I placed all my photos in the iCloud and also copied them to a flash drive and removed them from the hard drive. Now Organizer asks to reconnect missing files. The drop down menu in Browse does not list the Cloud as an option. How do i reconnect from the Cloud?
    Thanks, Barb

    You will need to keep the flash drive connected. PSE will contain links to it and the images.
    Otherwise you would need to copy the files to a folder in Pictures on your internal drive or an external hard drive.

  • How do I recover Missing Files

    I have several groups of pictures that have gone missing since I first used Picasa to share some photos. I could care less about a lot of them but there were a couple of hundred of my trip to England I would really like to recover. The thumbnails show up in my Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 but when you click on them they say that they are missing. These photos are no longer in MY Pictures either and the only thing in those folders is a Picasa.ini .
    I have also checked my recycle bin but there is nothing in there. Does anyone have any help as to how I may recover these photos?

    It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
    If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
    The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
    Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
    If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
    Hope those tips help!

  • Missing Titles and Themes menus

    In January 2012 purchased Prem elements 10 and soon afterwards the tutorial DVD by M Jago. Then whilst watching this tutorial, discovered my Prem 10 only displayed one menu under either "Titles" or "Themes" under the Edit menu.
    I was asisted by somebody within aAobe Empire to locate and download these mising menus, and then all was well.
      A few weeks ago, my pc underwent an upgrade, clean etc, now I find these "Themes & Titles" have vanished as the Akamie programme was uninstalled, obviously not realising this was part of an Adobe download.
    Can you again assist me to locate these missing "Titles, Themes" download content again, and is it possible to make a copy to disc, so this situation doesn't happen yet again.
    I have viewed the website but unfortunately unable to locate any downloads for Prem 10 and the "Help" menu checking "updates" states all up to date.
    I'm not very computer literate, so please try and keep reply simple to understand, without techical jargon.
    regards

    Hi Steve. Sorry previous reply may have been sent, before I had completed. Using Windows7 prior to purchase of Prem 10.
    The initial issue was downloading the BBC tv programmes as they had completely changed the way this was done, when I could just download to Windows Media, but not now. The "upgrade" was more of a PC clean, uninstall unused programmes, sort out TV issue, and whilst doing this, found hard drive "compacted". How relevant box ticked no idea. However sorted this out.
    Unfortunately unable to download the screen dump, made when your previous assistant found the answer, which I was hoping to send to you. 
    Hope this assists you. J

  • How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD?

    I use HandBrake to rip DVD's into iTunes. How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD? For instance, I have a Jimi Hendrix documentary that comes with special features, such as concert performances. I would like to have the main feature and the special features saved in my iTunes under the same title, perhaps as different 'tracks' (kind of like how different songs can be saved under the same album).
    Is there a way for me to do this, or am I chasing phantoms?

    *This response is for iPhoto 11 (v9). If you're using an earlier version, please post back and let us know. Troubleshooting steps are not the same for different versions. To find out which iPhoto you have: iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto)*
    Duplicate the photo first. (Photos -> Duplicate). This means that you will have multiple copies of the master as well as the edited version.
    If you use versions like this often and wish to have only one master then you can do this with Aperture.

  • ITunes musical library located on a WD 2TB, ext. drv. Computer destroyed by virus; ED survived. Bought new laptop, connected ED. Not able to see library. ED shows as 'G:' 95% full. How can I reconnect my old library to new laptop?

    I had my iTunes musical library on an ext. drv. WD 2TB, ‘MY BOOK ESSENTIAL'. Three weeks ago, my computer was infected by a virus that fried it. It did not affect the external drive. I bought a new computer: a laptop, Dell XPS, Intel Core i7-2630QM CPU, Windows 7 Home Premium. I have been able to connect the WD external drive; however, I am not able to see the musical library in my iTunes or Explorer. ‘My Computer’ shows the external drive as ‘G:’ 95% full. It reads, 32.1 GB free of 1.36 TB. When I click on the drive to see its contents, it shows nothing. The library in iTunes also shows nothing. Can anyone help, please? How can I reconnect my old musical library to my new laptop and iTunes? Many thanks.

    Hmm, viruses don't generally "fry" drives. They can make bootable operating systems not bootable, hide data, and corrupt executable files. Software can potentially wipe all the data from the drive but it shouldn't be able to physically damage the drive. Bah! What's done is done.
    As to unhiding your files assuming they are just hidden....
    Hit Start > Run, type in CMD and press enter. Type the following at the prompt and then press enter:
    attrib -h -s -r g:\*.* /d /s
    This tells windows to clear the hidden, read-only, and system flags from all files on the drive, assuming of course your profile has the power to "see" the files and change them.
    If that doesn't work then you may need to take ownership of the drive first. The drive may have security settings that make it "belong" to an account on your old system. Right-click on the drive in Windows Explorer and click Properties. Click the Security tab, the Advanced button, the Owner tab, then the Edit tab. Make yourself the owner, then you can make any other changes to the security settings you want to back on the Permissions tab. (If you can't change the owner log out and log back in as Administrator). For iTunes your account (or everyone) and SYSTEM need full access to all files. Any changes you make should be applied to "This folder, subfolders and files", should be inheritable and you should also replace the permissions on all child objects.

  • How do I adjust my titles so they don't fade in and out? I have hundreds of photos/videos on screen for a second or so each, for a year-long birthday video, and I need the dates in my titles to be steady rather than fading in and out spastically.

    I have been working on a project since December of 2012 for my son's first birthday. Basically, it's a photo or quick video each day of his life so far. I used the "upper" title and made the titles not fade in and out, because that could give someone a seizure. The idea is a seamless title that ticks away each day. But in the new iMovie, it changed my settings, and I can't for the life of me find how to change them back.
    Now, each date flashes in and out, in and out, in and out. Fractions of seconds go by. It's really distracting and annoying.
    How do I get the titles to remain on screen and not fade in and out? I had it just how I wanted it, but now we're rapidly approaching my son's birthday, and the video is suddenly a mess.
    How do I fix this?

    I am working with the very same concept for my project and the auto fade in and out has messed everything up. If I hear or a fix I'll be sure to reply here to let you know!
