How do you 'fix' samples in the timeline so they cant be moved out of sync?

I am audio editing imported final cut pro files with sound and picture. The problem i am having is when i double click on individual samples, i sometimes nudge them left or right - out of sync with the picture. After 2 days editing i estimate i have spent half that time trying to re-sync stuff manually - a nightmare. In Logic you can 'fix' all your samples so they can be moved across tracks, but not within the timeline. Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi Mathrah,
I haven't found a way to lock the clips--I don't think STP lets you do this.
Here are a few things to consider:
1) You might want to tweak your double-click mouse timing in System Preferences. I'm suggesting this because (at least the way I'm using the app) I've never run into this.
2) You can always control-click/right-click on a clip and select "open as project" or "open in editor" --this would make sure that you aren't moving the clip as you open it.
Also, if you actually do want to move clips across tracks and not have them move in time, you can hold down the shift key while you drag to lock the clip on the timeline as you drag the clip up and down.
Now my last point makes me wonder if you could just always hold down the shift key when you double click on the clips to edit them (locking their horizontal position while you double-click)--this might be worth a try.

  • How do you fix burn error 4260?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled my drivers.  I use Registry Mechanic program to fix any registry errors.  I started encountering this problem probably 2 years ago, Sony discs seem to fail less often (for me), while Memorex blanks fail at 50% rate.  So I did some research and kept reading that Verbatim blanks are good and hardly fail.  So far I am 5 for 5 in Verbatim burn fails, always with burn error 4260.  HOW DO YOU FIX THIS?
    The discs fail at different points in the burn process.  Sometimes at the beginning, sometimes it gets halfway through the final song before it spits out the disc and claims unknown error 4260.
    Please help.  Even if just to suggest what brand blanks you know will work.
    btw - reading and importing discs is no problem.  It is only when I try to burn a new disc.  Multiple brand blanks get same "unknown error 4260"

  • This is a new notification coming up with iTunes, why and how do I fix it? The song "Penny Lane" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?

    Hey xxCreepyFiaxx,
    First, I would try the following suggested steps for when you don't see content in iTunes after updating:
    Quit iTunes.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes.
    Use the Finder (Mac) or Windows Explorer (Windows) to go to the iTunes folder that contains the iTunes library files:
    Mac OS X
    /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
    Microsoft Windows Windows XP and Windows 2000
    \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Microsoft Windows Windows Vista and Windows 7
    \Users\username\Music\iTunes\
    Drag the iTunes Library file from the above location to the Desktop.
    Open the Previous iTunes Libraries folder in the iTunes folder.
    Locate the file named iTunes Library YYYY-MM-DD where YYYY-MM-DD is the date you upgraded iTunes (Year-Month-Day).
    Drag this file to the iTunes folder (the enclosing folder).
    Rename this file to iTunes Library.
    Open iTunes.
    You should now see your missing content in iTunes.
    via: No content shows up in iTunes after updating

    If that doesn't resolve the issue, then I'd go through the steps in here:

  • How do you fix the 2 to 3 second voice delay when answering iphone 5 this is with multiple carriers and its unaceptable on a phone that cost almost 700 dollars it did not happen on my cheap prepay samsung

    how do you fix the 2 to 3 second delay on hearing somones voice when answering the iphone 5 this happens on lots of  iphone 5s with differant carriers so its not one carriers problem its probably apples this is unacceptable on such an expensive phone and very irratating. my last cheap samsung t mobile 50 dollar pre pay never did this,im new in my  contract an will take the phone back if i have to put up with this for 2 years.other than that huge problem i love the phone. i dont understand why this did not get covered like the maps problem,cause its a lot of phones and its probably an ios problem.

    Wow!
    I'm not going to be of much use regarding answers but I sure am going to watching this post like a hawk for any replies. My package is a slightly diluted version of this and I do find the BBtalk and data limits hard to make the most of as well.
    If nothing else this totally highlights how complicated BT have managed to make their packages.
    A cynic would assume that they are trying to catch us out at every step and for us to either be overspending or not really getting the moneys worth.

    How do you fix an ipod that has a black screen and it turns on but when it turns on the screen gets a lighter black but you still can't see the apps or anything?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
      Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar              
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    What I know is that the phone worked perfectly fine until I upgraded the software. I've tried resetting the network settings to no avail. I've shut the phone off, put it in a ziplock baggie and then into the freezer for 15 minutes. This made the wifi work temporarily but then it goes back to being grayed out. The wifi does not work at other wifi sites away from my home as well. Seems like an apple issue to me and would appreciate someone coming up with a fix, apparently I'm not the only one having this problem. Thanks for replying to my query, any ideas?
    It's likely a hardware issue.  The iOS will not directly cause this issue.
    Use this article first:
    iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim - http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1559
    If that fails to resolve it, then try setting it up as new and testing again.
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4137
    If the issue remains even after set up as new, it's a hardware problem, not a software problem.  You'll need to contact Apple for you hardware service options.  If within warranty it should be free.  If not, expect to pay $149 USD + tax if it's an iPhone 4, $199 USD + tax if it's an iPhone 4S.

  • I installed the new version of iTunes today. It's 12.1.1. After completing the installation, including restarting my computer, I was no longer able to use Windows Internet Explorer. Has anybody else experienced this? If so, how did you fix Explorer?

    Never heard of that being caused by installing iTunes. Try asking on a Windows forum. This isn't a problem with iTunes or any other Apple product. If you believe it is, uninstall iTunes. If the problem persists, you'll have to seek advice on a Windows forum or contact Microsoft for support.

  • I can't click on the tabs on my desktop firefox, firefox 30, how do you fix this?

    I have reset and still get this issue, I would go and click on open new tab and then I would see the tab on the toolbar. I would go and try to open the tab by clicking on it and it would not work. How do you fix this? I know about shortcuts but its irritating and I share the computer and the shortcuts is slowing productivity. Thank you in advance.

    The mouse does not activate a tab, but a keyboard shortcut like Ctrl+2 to activate the second tab on the bar, does work?
    The Reset was a good thing to try. But some add-ons may reinstall after a Reset so those are worth reviewing again.
    Users have reported some new tab dysfunction is associated with Conduit add-ons, such as a Conduit plugin and/or a "Community Toolbar" extension.
    You can check for and disable extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * <u>Windows: Ctrl+Shift+a</u> , Mac: Command+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that help with the "+" button? If so, could you name the specific extension that caused the problem?
    You might also check the Plugins section of the Add-ons page. You can use "Never Activate" to disable plugins that you don't ordinarily use.
    Does that help at all?

    I just installed the yahoo messenger. Every time I do that my extensions go missing. How do you fix this instead of having to keep re installing firefox?

    hello, this sounds like the files in your [[Profiles|profile folder]] that store the information about your extensions might have become corrupted. please go to ''firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile - show folder...'' then windows explorer should open up your profile folder. in there look for the files named extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite, extensions.sqlite-journal (and in some cases also extensions.txt, extensions.rdf). delete or rename those files and quit firefox, they will be regenerated the next time you launch firefox.

  • TS3297 I downloaded a song but it did not download properly and only the first 5 seconds of the song plays.  How do you fix this and get the entire song downloaded?

    I purchased a song and when downloading there was an error.  No error on the other 8 songs just one and now only plays the first 5 seconds of the song.  How do you fix this and do the download again so the entire song is downloaded?  Thanks!

    Delete the song from your library and re-download it from the Purchases section of the iTunes Store.
