I can't delete a clip from my timeline anymore, Why?

Hi I am using FCP 6 and placing clips on the timeline all day long. I don't know what I did and now I can't clip and delete any clips from the timeline. When I try the linked button I have binks once. Do any of you FCP gurus know what I did and how do I fix it

How are you trying to delete them?...are they all on one single track? What exactly are you referring to by your 'link button'? Do you mean the track selector just to the right of the 'lock' at left of timeline?
Try this...set an In/Out, make sure the track selector is highlighted, then hit delete or command-c (apple-c) to 'cut' it out.
If you want to delete more than one track at a time, you can option-click on the track selectors to select one or all.

  • Is It Possible To Delete Certain Clips From An Archive?

    After successfully completing an Archive, I noticed there are certain clips that I will never use and would like to get rid of them.  I realize that i don't have to import them into my Events  but don't see a reason to have them taking up HD space.  The Archive was built from a mini DV tape cassette which means they are already stored there.  Is it possible to delete certain clips from an Archive?  If so, can't figure out how to go about it.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    I would try this on a small archive first and on a duplicate, just to make sure you don't damage the entire archive by using this technique.
    You can open an archive by right clicking on the archive icon and Show Package Contents. You should get a regular finder file structure. Find the files you want to discard, select them and Move to Trash.  That should be all there is to it.  I don't see where this should cause any problems, you should be able to import the files into FCPX without any problems (but** I have not tried this for myself — that's why I recommend trying this out on a duplicate archive first.)

    Is the deleted clip contained in a backup that you have?  If so, restore from that backup.  Please note that all content created on the phone since the backup was done will be lost

    epub books show up in ipad on itunes but do not show up on ipad. Also can not delete the books from ipad in itunes

    You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
    Here's how to do the recovery.  Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

    I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

  • Once a movie is copied into iTunes, can I delete the file from the folder?

    I've copied several movies into iTunes and then sync'd them onto my Apple TV.
    My question is: Once I've copied a movie into iTunes, can I delete the movie from its original folder (e.g. the Movie folder) and still have the movie in my iTunes?
    More specifically, does "dragging and dropping" the movie into iTunes make a new copy of the movie file so that I can delete the original file? And if I can delete the original file, should I?
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Thanks. I'll check and see when I get home tonight. My guess is that that's the setting since my disk space has decreased a lot when I started copying things into iTunes.

    How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.
    I tried to use the attached command through TERMINAL :
    sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';" && killall Dock
    sqlite3: Error: too many options: "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';"
    Use -help for a list of options.
    But i didn't work as I got the above error message.

    I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job).  What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
    http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
    Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software.  (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.)  The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance.  I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers.  When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install.  We did!  But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
    So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

  • How can i delete some books from ibook?

    How can i delete some books from ibook? It says: this book can't be opened. The book is corrupt. I can't open and I can't delete it

    I was unable to delete a book sample from my iPhone 5s running iOS 7.  This seems to be what worked for me.  I went to the Library and clicked "edit" in upper right side of the screen.  I then tapped one time on the book I wanted to remove and a blue check appeared at the bottom right corner of that book (presumably you could tap several at a time)  Anyway, when the blue check is on the book, you will see in the upper left of the screen the word "Delete" (mine was in red) I clicked that and then a confirming dialog came up from the bottom of the screen with the choices of "delete" or "cancel".  I chose "delete" and the book was gone.  Hope this helps.

    How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream in iCloud?
    Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices."

  • I don't have very much space left on my iCloud backup. I had a previous iPhone, my current iPhone and my iPad that are all connected to one cloud. Can I delete the backup from my previous iPhone? Will it delete in the cloud AND on the phone?

    I had a previous iPhone, my current iPhone and my iPad that are all connected to one cloud. Can I delete the backup from my previous iPhone? Will it delete in the cloud AND on the phone? or does it just delete from iCloud? or does it just delete from the phone? Someone please help!

    You can delete the backup without any problem. Only the backup will be deleted from iCloud and nothing else will be deleted, so you can do it without worrying about losing data on iCloud or your devices
