I can't seem to get a motion project to play right in FCP

Hi, I have been trying like heck to get an animated title project to play right in FCP. I had 6 layers and could not make the project export correctly, so I have simplified the project to 2 layers and am still having trouble. I have tried just opening the file in FCP and exporting to quicktime and it will not render without alot of glitchy scrambling. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated, thanks inadvance.

Hi 2Plank,
With regard to Motion it's not all about the bus speed it's all about the gfx card, baby. FWIW RAM bus speed on my Mac Pro is 667mhz and Motion parties like a rockstar.
JSYK,
Peace-shizzle
p.s.

You have (had) a Mac Mini which means you have (had) a monitor. Return the iMac, get a Apple Certified refurb Mac Pro for around the same price as a new iMac, use your Mac Mini monitor (if you still have it) and jam out on Motion like some American Idol billboard pop star while retaining valuable expandability options available exclusively for the Mac Pro.

  • Can't seem to get to garageband 10 projects to open in logic pro x

    Can't seem to get garageband 10 projects to open in logic pro x. I know it should be easy, but it always opens as an empty project without giving any notification of a problem. Earlier versions of garageband seem to transfer fine. However, if i save the earlier version projects as garageband 10 projects, they again fail to import into logic pro x.
    Any suggestions?

    Do you get the Dialog Window (that lets you save the GarageBand Project as a new Logic Project) when you open the original GarageBand Project? After you save it a Progress Bar should appear and then the Project opens in Logic.

  • I can't seem to get the iTS to update the description of my podcast, nor refresh to show new episodes?

    I recently launched a podcast series (http://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/notes-from-northwest-passage/id449063851) but its still showing an older description text with some typos and an incorrect link in it, as I registered it with a pre-edited file so it would be in line for review while I finalized the details, and now I can't seem to get it to refresh and show the new texts at all, even though I edited the description texts in the xml file well over 2-3 weeks ago.
    I've tried redoing this file several times.  It always validates but changes never get picked up by the iTunes store.I can manually subscribe to the feed using iTunes' advanced menu, with no problems. The feed is at:
    http://a4.g.akamai.net/7/4/66750/v1/smb2.download.akamai.com/66750/http/podcasts /archaeology2011/arcticarchaeology2011_eng.xml
    I recently (about 3-4 days ago) tried redirecting the feed to a new version of the xml file stored in a new folder, just to see if that would somehow jolt it back into reading it, but again after 3-4 days it hasn't done anything.
    It's also not showing any of the most recent episodes even though they have all been there about a week, so the store should have picked them up by now, no?
    Any suggestions?

    If you look at the feed, and look at the entry 'The end to an exciting field season in Aulavik National Park' you will see the line:

    You have not closed the 'pubdate' tag - there should be a '>' as the 9th character. Because the tag has been left open, it invalidates everything which follows it, and thus the entire feed. iTunes therefore cannot read it, which is why the Store has not updated. Add the '>' and republish, and all should be well.

  • I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode.  If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.  I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

    I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode.  If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
    I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
    I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
    Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

    Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
    For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
    To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
    At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
    Good luck!

  • HT3500 I have a MacBook Pro and an HP ENVY 110 SERIES All-In-One .  I can't seem to get a network set up or either one to locate or connect to the other one.

    I've spent hours, actually probably days, trying to do this but it's not working. I've had the ENVY since Nov
    and have not been able to print - much less do anything else with it.
    My internet is CLEAR wireless. I use the little USB 4G Mobil Modem. This new HP ENVY is also wireless.
    I know I can't be online and print at the same time unless I get a router.
    I also know that I can go offline and change the network pref  to "airport" so I can print. Meaning I'll have to change
    back and forth but for my uses,  that's ok..at least for right now.
    What I can't seem to get set-up correctly is my own local network.
    I'm pretty sure it's suppose to be done using "Airport".
    Obviously, I'm doing something wrong in establishing my network.
    The printer is listed on my printer preferences and shown as  "offline"  "default". I assume that means the ENVY
    is my default printer.  Great! At least my Pro knows it's suppose to connect to the ENVY once everything's set-up correctly.
    Now, if someone could just tell me exactly, step-by-step what to do to get that done....
    I'd be soooo very happy!
    Thank you!
    Ricki

    Well... no help was found here.. so I abandoned the wireless- ness of my printer.  I bought a
    small 10 port hub because only 2 USB ports really isn't enough with wireless mouse, wireless internet
    and any kind of printer.   I also bought a long USB cable.  I now print--wired since this can be done
    as an alternative to wireless with this printer.   Because I don't want a cable "hanging around"
    when the printer is not in use, I simple disconnect it and reconnect when I want to print.
    It's a temporary solution others may find helpful as well. Apparently there's been a lot of
    confusion and problems getting this printer set up wirelessly with our MacBooks.
    Shame on HP for not helping us out!

    I've gotten a little further on this. The dynamic select is
    working fine. It's the "a href" code that isn't. I'm wondering if
    someone can look at this line and tell me if it's okay to build the
    query string this way. The storeid comes through fine but I'm still
    not getting the employeeid value to pass. Here's line that's not
    working:

    $row_storeRS['storeid']; echo "&employeeid="; echo
    $_GET['employeeLM']; ?>">Register

  • I can't seem to get GB to recognize my Behringer X1222 USB Mixer. It will record, but shouldn't I be able to see and/or select which input channel(s) that I will record from? Can I record more than one channel at a time, and record multi tracks?

    the x1222 includes a 2 channel audio interface, 2 channels are all you can get from it.
    the most you can do is record to 2 tracks at a time; skim this tute to see how:

    Hi,
    This is how App Store app shows now when an app is downloading. If you cannot download anything, go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, remove your Apple ID, and set it again. That should work.
    Hope that helps.

    Unless Verizon has a special provision in this regard that ATT has never had, Apple handles all iPhone repairs and exchanges under Apple's warranty.
    There is a setting when capturing photos - Automatic, On, or Off for the flash when capturing photos.
    If there is no flash when set to On or Automatic in a dark setting and no change after the standard troubleshooting steps which in order are:
    Power your iPhone off and on.
    An iPhone reset.
    Restoring your iPhone with iTunes from the backup.
