I can't make a transition longer than 1 second

I have a simple project in FCP X 10.0.6, with a fade-to-black transition at the end of a clip (followed by black generator). I now want to lengthen that fade-to-black, but I can't. It's one second long, and I can make it shorter, but I can't lengthen it, no matter which way I try to do it. Any ideas? Thanks!

Okay, so why can't I make that fade to black longer than one second? I don't mean that I want black to last longer than one second. I mean I want the fade to take more time. It lets me make it shorter, but not longer.

  • Ver. 06: Can't make a podcast longer than 66mins. Also can't split long track

    I'm trying to create a podcast 90 mins in length.  When I bring the audio into the track,  version 06 cuts it off at 66 mins.  Also, when I split the track, it cuts off EVERYTHING, save for about 10 seconds of media, to the right of the split point. 
    Does anyone know how I can resolve this problem? 

    Lower the tempo of your song, then your project can be longer.

    But if I want ONLY fade out (or in) I can't do it...
    OK, I understand what you mean now! I assumed you were asking about the normal Fade In or Fade Out using the transition from the Transitions panel. But I guess you mean the Fade function specific to a Cutaway. When you double-click on a Cutaway the Inspector opens. Here you can set the Cutaway Fade duration. But as you say, it only provides for both fade in and fade out as one operation - you can't set the fades individually (it's both or nothing).
    BUT, try the method outlined by Karsten Schluter above. It will give you the same effect and will enable you to fade either side of the Cutaway (or add other transitions).

  • How can i make voiceover read paragraphs than reading the entire page

    how can i make voiceover read paragraphs than reading the entire page of an ebook

    If you are using rectangle as layer or accordion menu then you can use 100% width for these page items.
    In control strip options , when you select the rectangle you can view 100% width button which would make it browser width.

  • Can automator identify file names longer than a specified number of characters?

    I have a lot of data that I need to ultimately archive to a PC solution but it currently has a lot of files with names longer than 256 characters.  I know I can batch update the names with automator, but what about an easy way to identify them?? Is there a way to identify file names based on file name length?

    Not in Automator.  There are other ways but the question is once you have the files what do you plan to rename them. You can't just cut off all the chars above 256 as this will not ensure uniqueness.
    So what convention will you use to make the names unique?
    As for getting the files. This command run in the terminal will return all filenames over N long
    ls | awk 'length ($0) > N'
    so in your case
    ls | awk 'length ($0) > 255'
    So this could be run from an Automator workflow or Applescript to capture the filenames you want to change. But again it's the renaming that is tricky.

  • My iphone home button wont work - according to the Sale of Goods act I can expect this to last longer than the 1 year 83 days that I have had the phone, regardless of any guarentee

    I have a 3Gs iPhone, which I've had for 1 year 83 days and the home button si faulty. I have checked on the internet and this seems to be a common issue.
    I have a contract with O2 for 24 mouths due to run out March 2012 but the phone was bought from Carphone Warehouse.
    I have been to O2 and they say it's out of the Apple warranty and therefore I will have to pay for a repair. They also have now said because it came from CPW they will do nothing for me.
    I have been to Apple and they say the same thing that I have to pay for the repair as it's out of warranty
    My query is surely I can expect a phone that has been looked after should last longer than 83 days? Therefore under the sale of good act I should get a repair or replacement for free???
    I am now paying for a contract where the phone doesn't work!

    Good luck with that. Most of the world does not have anything like what you believe your "sale of goods act" is supposed to do. It sounds like you expect it to extend the warranty on a Product from Apple until your contract with an entirely different company is complete.  I think you'll find that you are misinterpreting that law.  The exception may be if you purchased the phone from the carrier and the law is written in such a way as to require them to replace the device if it fails during the term of the contract, though I doubt that will be the case either.

  • Why won't Imovie let me make a video longer than ten minutes?

    This has never been a problem before.  I have made many videos on Imovie that are longer than ten minutes.  Now all of a sudden it won't let me make a video that is more than ten minutes long.  What is going on?
    On a somewhat related note:  Not only am I having this hassle, but I had to create a whole new apple ID just to ask this question becasue for whatever reason Apple wouldn't accept my credintials ( not even my recovery credentials).  Then I had to try to log in five or six times because at first they wouldn't accept my new password, which I later found out was because I also needed to confirm my recovery adress, and then because I had to create a separate Apple Support ID.  I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get really sick and tired of having to jump through so many hoops just to accomplish the simplest tasks involving apple features.

    Try copying it to your desktop, then importing into iMovie from there.

  • Title Tag..Can you make it as long as you want? Rage Roddy Toad question

    I think a good key word title is important to be found on google...Does it hurt to make it as long as possible? is to many keywords to much in the title tag or the more the merrier?

    The title tag appears above the URL box at the top of the page.
    It's also the page description that is stored when your page is bookmarked.
    I try to keep it short and to the point.
    For example, go to this site...
    http://roddymckay.com/PhotoSatellite/iWebPhotos.html
    Look at the tag that appears at the top of the browser and then try bookmarking it.
    They are short and, hopefully, to the point. When someone bookmarks the page they don't have to shorten it and it tells them what the page is about.
    I try not to use more than 5 or 6 words maximum.
    You just need a few keywords - not your life story!
    I am sure that those who have a tendency to be verbose will disagree.

  • Can't make LOM working more than 20 seconds after startup

    Hi.
    This bottle in the sea because I don't succeed to make LOM working.
    The story is the following.
    I have 5 Xserve Intel involved in a Xsan installation. Port 1 is used for public LAN, port 2 for private LAN, as usual.
    I've configured the LOM settings for port 1 locally with Server Monitor with another IP in the public LAN.
    Then I've added the Xserve in the Server Monitor of an iMac used for the administration of the SAN.
    The messages I get are a waiting for an answer of the Xserve or the fact that the information have not been updated... for a long time. All the Xserve present the same problem. At this moment, it's not possible to ping the LOM Port 1.
    If I add the server locally in its own Server Monitor with its LOM IP, it doesn't work either but if I try "127.0.0.1", I get the hardware informations as expected.
    I've tried to shutdown a Xserve, unplug the power cords, wait one minute, plug the power cords, start it but it doesn't fix the problem. Perhaps I should have unplug the other cables ?
    Finally, I've noticed that :
    - when the Xserve is shut down, I can ping the LOM Port 1
    - during the start up of the Xserve, the iMac gets its hardware informations for a couple of seconds
    - at the moment when the login window is visible in ARD, the LOM Port 1 is no longer ping-able
    - the Server Monitor on the iMac says that the connection with the Xserve has been lost.
    That is to say that the iMac receives the hardware informations of the Xserve during 20 seconds after their startup, not more
    I've tried to use the command sudo IPMITool lan print 1 and it seems that the configuration is correct.
    I have also another problem with Server Monitor. If I try locally (with the 127.0.0.1 address) to edit notifications, I don't succeed to complete the "To" field whereas I can comlete the "From" field. Is there a known problem with the GUI here or do I have to change my glasses ?
    Any idea is welcome now ! I'm lost.
    All the best.

    Hi.
    I've investigated the problem. It's simple but I 've found no solution at the moment.
    The problem appears when the Xserve is connected to the Cisco Catalyst 3750G switch, can't be reproduced when the Xserve is in direct attachement with my Mac.
    All the ports of this switch have been set to "Desktop" with the Web interface (after Express Setup) and the negociation (speed/duplex) is auto by default.
    When the Ethernet negociation setting on the Xserve is "Automatic", the Xserve doesn't fully boot. When it is started, you have to unplug and plug the Ethernet cable so the startup is completed. Very strange.
    When the Ethernet negociation setting on the Xserve is manually fixed to 1000-FD, the Xserve starts up without problem. When the Xserve is stopped, the LOM Port in pingable. When it starts a little, the LOM Port is still pingable but at the moment I think the manual setting is applied, the LOM Port is no longer pingable. This is the key of the problem.
    So I tried to fix the speed/duplex in the switch and leave the Xserve on "Automatic". The story is the same: the LOM Port is desactivated after a few seconds of startup.
    When the Xserve is on "Automatic" and plugged directly to my Mac, the problem doesn't exist.
    The problem does not exist with the Mac Pro leaved on "Automatic".
    So the problem is between the Xserve Intel and the Cisco Switch. Perhaps something to do with its settings but I do not speak "Cisco" regularly
    The Cisco has product ID WS-C3750G-48TS and the Software is 12.2(25)SEE3.
    I made the same test with the "private" Cisco switch product ID WS-C3750G-24T and the problem is the same.
    For the moment, I leave the Xserve with the speed/duplex fixed because I prefer that the machines boot, rather than being able to consult LOM remotely when they are hanged (it works locally on 127.0.0.1 on each Xserve started).
    Next step would be to play with setting the spanning tree "portfast" on the Cisco ; if it lets the Xserve to be set on "Automatic", perhaps it will solve the LOM problem and by the way the edit notification problem.
    All the best !

  • Payment terms Payables - Can a discount period be longer than the Due Date

    My client regularly pays their supplier invoices beyond the due date but yet deducts the early payment discounts
    anyway
    I have tried unsuccessfully to create payment terms that would have the correct due date ex Net 30
    But would nevertheless calculate the discount they wish to take even beyond that due date
    For example try to set up a payment term 2% 60 Net 30
    But the discount is always canceled beyond the due date even if I set the discount period to go beyond the due date
    Now it is true they could still manually take it but the system would no longer calculate it for them
    The only way I think I can make this work is to make the due date period equal to the discount period
    So 2%60  Net 60
    Am I missing something here
    The client used to be able to do this automatically in his old Accpac dos system (take the discount anyway)
    Any comments would be appreciated
    Thank you
    Georges Ostiguy

    Hi Georges,
    the application considers the due date as the pertinent date & uses this date to calculate discounts, ageing reports etc.So this date cannot be used as 'merely advisory'. This is also the reason why this date is always the last date where the application allows an automatic discount calculation to.
    It is possible to manually change the due date of AP invoices & then adjust the 'Cash Discount Date Offset' field in the accounting tab of the document. This then allows an automatic re-calculation of the discount according to the payment terms & the updated due date.
    Since your customer uses the due date on the AP invoice received as an FYI only, you could let them enter this date in the BP Reference field on the document in addition to the actual vendor refenece number & then make that column visible in Step 6 of 9 in the payment wizard. Then maintain the actual due date as decided by your customer in the document & adjust the cash discount offset date.
    All the best,
    Kerstin

  • HT2376 This article says you can retrieve your key when in fact you can't if you purchased longer than 18 months ago

    Apple Support told me that I had to repurchase my software keys for QuickTime Pro because the order history no longer gos back farther than 18 months.
    Thanks, Apple. After leaving the software keys in my order history for literally YEARS, for removing them without warning and telling me I'm out of luck - in spite of what the Support article says.
    If you'd actually TOLD ME you'd be taking down the information, I would've taken steps to record the keys elsewhere, BUT YOU DIDN'T, and if I need QT Pro I'm out $40 for s second time.
    I've been an Apple customer for 20+ years, and this is a big disappointment.

    Apple did tell you to save the registration key in the purchase confirmation email that was sent to you
    Using software without a copy of the reg key would be a disappointment for anyone.
