How do I set format preferences?

Sorry to be stupid but how do I set the preferences in my FCP 10.0.3 to ensure it ingests, edits and exports in 1080i HD PAL 25fps ? I only get Import preferences when I go to Preferences.
Thank you.

PAL is standard definition. Normally FCP imports exactly what you shot as QuickTime. When you place a video clip in the timeline as the first item, it sets the project properties based on that clip. The current settings normally exports in ProRes.
P.S. The bottom of your message says FCE. I assume that's not what you mean.

  • Saving a Pages document: when I first save a pages document it saves and I don't know where it goes or what its name is.  I want to be asked every time I save a pages document what to name it and where to save it. How do I set this preference?

    I'll guess that you've used a page layout document & pasting created a text box. You can add more pages & create linked text boxes, but I think you'd be better of using a word processing document. In word processing documents there is a basic text layer & additional pages will be created as needed to fit the text. Take a look at the toolbar of your document. If it says "sections" for the +page icon it's a word processing document, if it says "pages" it's a page layout document.

  • How do I set my preferences to open most recent catalog?

    I'm running LR 4.1 with ACR 7.1 on a Windows 7 64 bit OS.
    I set my preferences to open most recent catalog.
    I then open another catalog and do some stuff in the catalog but when I start LR next time it keeps going back to a different catalog. How can I change the settings so it either opens the most recent catalog or I get prompted for which catalog I'd like to open (I've tried both settings) and LR still keeps opening the same catalog.

    In the same dialog that your screenshot shows select as per this screen shot:
    Your setting should open the catalog you most recently worked with. If you work on catalog A, then open catalog B, with your settings Lr will open with catalog B the next time.

  • IMail: How can I set mail preferences to display actual email address and not short names.

    Even though I have it correctly set in Preferences , i.e. "Use Smart Addresses" is unchecked, the addressee automatically changes to the person's name rather than the email address.   I am unable to find a way to display the actual email address option on iMail (Yosemite)  I do not want nicknames/short names but want the actual email address to display on my address line.   Can anyone advise please?

    Thanks, Ernie

  • How do i set system preferences to delete file cache that is not being used

    My file cache is using over a GB of memory.  How do i set the system to free up memory that is being held but not used?

    It's normal since Mavericks for almost all memory to be in use, either by applications or by the file cache. That's what you should want, since unused memory is going to waste. The relevant measure of whether memory is in short supply is what Apple calls "memory pressure."
    Apple's explanation of memory pressure is here. If you want a more detailed, technical description, see here, and for the source code, see here.

  • How do I set Premiere preferences for all users - University lab machine?

    I am setting up an editing suite for our University which has a "per machine" Creative Cloud licence. It is a PC installation. This machine will be used by a class of students who will log in with their own credentials. I need to set the preferences for Premiere (video output, workspace layout, default drives etc) so that it will be the same for all users logging in since we want a consistent setup for teaching purposes and dont want to have to help each student set up so that it shows correctly on the monitors. Is there a way of saving this setting as the default for every user?
    The most important one is the preferences - Playback in order to set up the second monitor.

  • How can I set service preferences with Safari 5.0.5 and os 10.6.8?  Was working fine until combined update install.

    My service preferences won't set after installing combined update earlier this week and the security 2012-4 update that caused so much problem with mail. Is there a list of changes that was  made in safari with this latest update, because the bookmarking isn't working the same and the readling list page is  gone?

    because the bookmarking isn't working and the same and the reading list page is gone?
    Your profile indicates you have v10.7.2 installed yet your topic refers to v10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
    Try this...
    Open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Safari then reselect it.
    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync your bookmarks and reading list.
    Safari 5.0.5 is an outdated version. You need to update Safari.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update...
    Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.

  • How do I set Firefox preferences to automatically open links in a new tab (just like Firefox3) ?

    For example, when clicking on a link from a Google search, how can I have the link open automatically in a new tab as opposed to replacing the current page ?

    Hey, cor-el -- long time no see! Hey, I have a problem, & my brain isn't working well enough to suss it out at the moment. :(
    For some reason in the last week or so, links selected from either bookmarks or address bar no longer open automatically on selection, plus google search has disappeared from the nav toolbar . (Don't ask "what add-ons have you updated?" I don't know, & the add-on manager says I haven't done any recently.)
    I checked about:config for browser.search.openintab; value is still set true. I toggled it false, restarted FF, then re-toggled true & another restart -- no joy. :(
    I'm running 7.0.1 (release channel) on my work machine & the latest 8.x beta candidate at home; both exhibit the same behavior, so I'm assuming it's not a beta bug. What am I missing? I know it has to be something simple, but my brain refuses to compute. I know I could use safe mode & successively re-enable my add-ons, but I don't really have the time or mental clicks available.
    I'm hoping it's something simple since I really don't have time to plod through everybloodydangthing for the one bad value that I'm sure is causing it. :/
    Regards & Happy Monday!

  • How do I set iCal preferences?

    Since my Lion update, my calendar appointment defaults to all-day or 8 hours.
    I want it to default to 1 hour for each appointment I schedule.

    PeggyO,
    Here are some Lion iCal event entry tips:
    1. Click Add at the top of the iCal window or press Command (⌘)-N.
    Events are added automatically to your default calendar.
    If you want to choose a different calendar for the event, hold down the Add button (+), and then choose a calendar.
    To change your default calendar, choose iCal > Preferences, click General, and then select a calendar from the Default Calendar pop-up menu.
    2. Enter a name, date, and time duration for the event, and then press Return.
    For example, you can enter “Super Bowl Party Feb 6,” “Movie with Rebecca on Friday at 7pm,” “Soccer Game on Saturday from 11am-1pm,” or “Breakfast with Jon,” and then press Return.
    If you don’t enter a time duration for the event, iCal sets the event’s duration to 1 hour.
    If you don’t enter any time information for the event, iCal makes the event an all-day event.
    If you enter “breakfast” or “morning,” iCal sets the event to start at 9 a.m.
    If you enter “lunch “ or “noon,” iCal sets the event to start at 12 p.m.
    If you enter “dinner” or “night,” iCal sets the event to start at 8 p.m.

  • How do I set a preference for opening one of multiple email accounts first?

    I have multiple email accounts and prefer to open one of them first when I open the email app.  After setup of all my email accounts the app is opening one of the accounts that is not my preference even though I setup my preferred account as the default.  I've deleted all accounts and started over thinking that the order of the setup made a difference but it has not helped.
    In particular I want an Exchange email account to open first and this account is not sync'ed with iTunes.
    Would appreciate any suggestions.
    Thank you,

    The only way that you can do something even close to what you are trying to do is to back out of whatever you are in while using the mail app in order to get back to the main mail window that shows all of your inboxes and all of the different email accounts under the accounts heading. Then you could choose to use the Exchange account first from there.
    You would have to do this every single time that you are done with mail and it isn't exactly what you are looking to do and it's hardly worth the time anyway.
