don't know if this has anything to do with problem.

The backups for your version are date-time stamped as the name and with an extension of .fcpproject. They look like this.
The original project is named CurrentVersion.fcpproject.
You need to replace the CurrentVersion with the backup file and rename it to be CurrentVersion.fcpproject.
With FCPX closed, I suggest you move the original to the Trash, but not empty it. Then promote your backup one level higher in the project folder hierarchy (to be at the same level that the original previously occupied. Then rename the backup.
Open up FCPX, which should now recognize your project.

I have a new Apple TV which is working fine except that I cannot access .mov files which are in my iTunes Library. How can I get to these? I can run them on my computer and select Apple TV on the screen, but the Apple TV goes to a black screen
Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

Why does the clone stamp work when I go from a darker color to a lighter color but not the other way around? How can I lighted a dark area? The Lasso tool takes from the wrong area.

Why do you use the Blend Modes Lighter and Darker at all in this case and not simply Normal?
And what kept you from posting a screenshot?
I borrowed the image below for an HDR workshop I ran at the 2010 PSNZ National Convention, to demonstrate a method of removing halos. You'll remember that halos were a serious problem with early HDR, and while the halos in this image were caused by over sharpening, they are perfect for demonstrating this technique.
It relies on the fact that halos so often tend to put a lighter tone between the two areas where sharpening is being applied. Whether that is the sky abutting a dark line of hills, or the rock and little tower as in this image. I've uploaded it at the size it was supplied to me at (about 2700 pixels wide). So
Click to open the full image, right click and copy, and paste into Photoshop.
Select the clone tool, and set its blend mode to Darken.
Try to sample on a line horizontal to where you want to clone, to give the best tonal match, and start cloning.
Because the sky is darker than the halo, it overwrites it. But the rock is darker than the sky, so it has no affect.
It works even better if you clone on a new layer also set to Darken. No masking, just Photoshop blend mode magic.
You can also fix the little tower. Use a great big brush — just remember to sample horizontal to match the horizon.
Back then I was using the same trick with CAs after forgetting to fix them in ACR, and having done too much work to start again after spotting the problem. -
I have a lot of apple purchases on my credit card statement. They're not mine but they could be my daughters. How can I see a list of my itune purchases to cross reference?
Thanks. Sadly I always seem to have trouble following even the simplest and clearest directions.
I went to iTunes>Store. I swear 'view my account' doesn't exist, but i did see 'account'. The drop down menu only listed options to do with orders. No mention of purchases.
I then rang the local apple store and an 'Applette' guided me through the apple website so I could report my problem. Even then, we encountered a button that was invisible to me. It only showed itself in the 'mouse-over' state as my cursor changed into the pointing hand. Sheesh!! Such is my luck.
Anyway, the 'Applette' agreed that it was suspicious that I hadn't received an emailed invoice for any of the contentious purchases. I may well have been hacked. The problem has not been solved but it has been reported.
Thanks again. -
I have App Store updates indicated, but the update screen is blank. How can I retrieve updates?
From Demo:
If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then. -
I have used itunes forever, Sunday night when I tried to get into the itunes store an error popped up and said could not open; error code (-3212), How do I get back into the itunes store?
Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -
I have a new ipod and added all my apps to it. When I sign in to Words with Friends it says that "user name is already in use" because it is linked to my old ipod. How can I use the same user name with my new ipod?
Was the iPod setup via iTunes on this computer?
Setup via wifi?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Please help me, i have lost all my contacts during a software update and have no idea how to retrieve them.
If you've been using your phone as recommended, you've been keeping your contacts safe on your computer in Outlook or Address Book, or safe with a cloud service like Google.
Your contacts should be there safe and sounds ready to synch back to your iPhone.
Not using your phone as recommended and only using your phone as the sole place for contacts? Well, you've just learned a hard lesson. They're gone. -
When I right click "save image as" on a JPG file, I get no response at all. How can I fix this?
I am running Firefox 34.0 on Linux (Fedora 20, KDE desktop). I checked the Mozilla download site and it says I have the latest version. When I right click on a JPEG file to save it, I get the "save image as" option, but when I select it, nothing happens. The file is not downloading. I google searched for fixes and tried all of the following, per the Mozilla support documents, all with no change in response:
- Changing the download folder
- Reseting the relevant preferences in the about.config folder
- clearing the download history
- Running Firefox in Safe Mode
Additionally, I verified under preferences that jpeg image is set to "always ask".
All other references to this problem seem to refer to problematic plugins, but the safe mode check shows that is not my issue. Any idea what the issue could be and how I can fix it?As previously stated, when I run with all of the addons disabled, the problem still exists. I just tried this again and verified it again. Per your suggestion, I created a new profile and found that the save image as command worked. Do you have any idea what part of the profile is corrupted and causing the problem? I'd like to localize the problem so I can save as much of my old profile as possible, and not have to start over rebuilding all of my settings.

Where would the Bookmarks be filed in my system backup? Can I move them to the new system (Internal drive)?
Hi drnels,
Are you saying you still have access to the backup? If you do, you should take a look at [[Backing up your information]]. It will show you where all of your personal information is stored in Firefox and how you can copy it to a new install.
Hopefully this helps! -
If I delete a 1.6Gb video, the 'other' increases by 1.6Gb.How do I fix this permanently?
Sounds like you're trying sync different iTunes libraries on different computers. You can only sync with one at any particular time. If you sync with one and try to do so on another the second will want to delete everything form the first. Can't think of any other reason why what you are doing should be a problem.

My ipad is locked up. A message stating that an icloud backup has not been done for 5 weeks. How can I get rid of this and prevent this from happening again?
This should get rid of the message once the iPad fully restarts.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
The obvious answer I would think is to backup the iPad on a regular basis so the message doesn't reappear - unless you are saying that you do backup and the message popped up anyway. -
Help! I recorded odometer readings on my work calender on my iphone 4S all last year and now my calenders are blank from September2012 and earlier. It is backed up to icloud. What happened and can I get that information back somehow?
Go to iCloud.com, select the calendar.
Is the information listed in the calendar?
If it is, it should be syncing to the device.
If it is not, then that information is gone. -
