How to work on same project both in studio and on the road?

OK, so I do all my work on a macbook pro. My home setup includes an array of external hard drives but I would like to work on my project while Im traveling this weekend.
My project has several different sequences...SO, how can I export all material from one sequence on to a portable firewire drive, work on it on the road(same computer,different drive), then once back home continue where I left off with my normal drives back on line?
I don't want to export ALL the scratch disk due to size, just what's being used on a particular sequence.
Is this scenario possible? I assume I will use "media manager" and I assume if I do ANY rendering that those clips will need to be transfered back to original drives from the portable?
Ideas?
Thanks so much, I really enjoy this forum!

Can't be done. If you media manage only the footage used in the cut, edit, then try to link your sequence to the full sized footage, it won't. FCP looks at REEL, TC start and stop and duration. If anything doesn't match, then it won't connect. If you want to edit on the road, you either need to bring a copy of the FULL clips used in the sequence (an option in the Media Manager COPY function...just don't choose DELETE UNUSED MEDIA), or you can RECOMPRESS (again, in MM) all the the footage to a smaller size (offline RT) and edit that. Then reconnect to the full res version when you come back.

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

  • I need to work on documents in both my iMac and air book. But I have to download document and them upload it, and when I upload it I can't open it unless I open it on my phone first. Yet changes made on phone appear straight away. Does this make sense????

    On your Macs open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Documents & Data, then reselect that box then restart your Macs.
    On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud. Switch Documents & Data off then back on then reset the iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    See if you can open the files now without opening on the iPhone first.

  • How to compare two strings whether both are equal while ignoring the difference in special characters (example: & vs & and many others)?

    I attempted to compare two strings whether they are equal or not. They should return true if both are equal.
    One string is based on Taxonomy's Term (i.e. Term.Name) whereas other string is based on String object.
    The problem is that both strings which seem equal return false instead of true. Both string values have different special characters though their special characters are & and &
    Snapshot of different design & same symbols:
    Is it due to different culture or language?
    How to compare two strings whether both are equal while ignoring the difference in special characters (& vs &)?

    Hi Jerioon,
    If you have a list of possible ambiguous characters the job is going to be easy and if (& vs &) are the only charracters in concern awesome.
    You can use the below solution.
    Before comparing pass the variables through a replace function to standarize the char set.
    $Var = Replace($Var,"&","&")
    This is going to make sure you don't end up with ambiguous characters failing the comparison and all the char are "&" in this case.
    Similar technique is used to ignore Character Cases 'a' vs. 'A'

  • How can I access my music library from a laptop on the road, as if my PC is not active? I tunes is installed on both PC and Home Sharing is enabled on both devices.

    How can I access my music library from a laptop on the road, as if my PC is not active? I tunes is installed on both PC and Home Sharing is enabled on both devices.

    The key constraint for Home Sharing in this context is that both PCs need to be on the same wifi network. So once you get out of range of the wifi network covering your home PC, the laptop is not going to be able to Home Share.
    Have you considered importing your iTunes music to the laptop? Then you could listen to a local copy of the music on the laptop while you're on the road. (You can do the import via home sharing when both computers are on the same wifi network.)

  • How can I export a project on an external drive in the latest version of iMovie?

    Before the latest release of iMovie I easily managed to export a project on an external usb drive and re-import such project on a different Mac... In the latest iMovie version, however, I cannot see my drive any more..
    So, how can I export a project on an external drive in the latest version of iMovie?
    Thank you in advance

    I'm not sure this is the best way, but you could create a new iMovie Library, move your project to that Library, then close the library. Then move the Library to your USB drive. Then, on the other Mac, in iMovie open the Library.

  • I attempted to download a song. It originally did not download correctly. I refreshed the download and it supposedly completed. Upon playing the song in both my library and on the Itunes store it will not play past the first 5 seconds. How can I fix this?

    Hello Whitney262,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I would go ahead and make sure you can first download the content, then remove the song from your iTunes Library, and download again from your iTunes past purchases.  The article below will walk you through the entire process:

  • How Do I create Windows Form file in VS and add the form to my VS project?

    C#, How Do I create Windows Form file in VS and add the form file to my VS project by using C# code?
    I like to create a Windows Form file into my VS Win Form project by using C#. I have the path and the file name.
    I need a Win Form with FileName.cs, FileName.Designer.cs, FileName.resx, and FileName (as you see it VS by adding a Win Form manually by using VS)
    Rune Brattas

    You cannot create a Form from code at run time. 
    For one thing, the user running your application will, almost certainly, not have  a copy of Visual Studio to hand with which to build anything.  (Not that you actually need 'Studio at all; Notepad and csc.exe are all you actually
    need), but that's another story).
    You can do this with an awful lot of pain, using the innards of the compiler from iside your own program, compiling the new Form's source code on the fly and then executing the resulting assembly within your application.  IMHO, that's a simply terrifying
    prospect especially as the code you will be compiling will be on someone else's machine and over which you will have absolutely no control.  If you're lucky, they'll spell something wrong and it won't compile.
    The "usual" way to do this sort of thing is to create additional, "plug-in" forms as library assemblies and have your program load and execute these at run-time.

  • How do I get notifications on both my iPhone and Apple Watch?

    How do I get notifications on both my iPhone and Apple Watch, not just the Watch?

    That is correct, I spoke with apple and they told me it's one or the other depending on which one you are actively using at the time. I think it would be very useful to have your phone still vibrate along with your watch, as I've noticed I don't feel the watch most times, even with the prominent touch selection on (i.e. when i'm driving) Then you'd be able to know you got a message or notification from your phone vibrating and then could check the watch, although there would be a second or two delay like when you receive a phone call.

    Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

  • How do I combine all my calendars into one and delete the others?

    I have a work computer, a home desktop, and Apple air laptop and an 1phone 4s.
    I use Outlook calendar for all my appointments and only need one calendar.

    Your old account is the one you migrated, but it has been renamed because the new account had the same name. "Fixing" this is a bit complicated. It is possible to transfer data from one account to the other. See Transferring files from one User Account to another.
    A cleaner solution is to do this:
    Create a temporary new admin user account with a completely different username.
    Log into this new account.
    Delete the new account you created before migrating.
    Delete the old account you migrated that has the changed name.
    Re-migrate your old account from the Mini.
    Log into the newly migrated account and delete the temporary account.
    And, the simplest solution is to use the migrated account as-is and delete the account you originally made on the new computer.
