IMovie2013 Import media shows "clock for favorite locations content

I am trying to import any clip in the import window from favorite my desktop location and mac location shows the turning circle and i do not get to select any files ? Happened since the last MAC OS update 10.9.3. ANy place I can "reset" ?

I updated to OS 10.9.3 a few hours ago and neither iMovie nor FCP 10.1 would launch at all. TextEdit also kept crashing. I did not have the time to start troubleshooting and have now reverted to 10.9.2 from a Superduper clone I created before the update and everything so far looks OK again.
You could try deleting the iMovie preference file or logging as a guest user.
I'm now going to do what i should have done and wait until I have seen what problems are reported before updating. None of the changes in 10.9.3 are of any relevance to my set up anyway.

I can't upload or import videos from my iphoto library, into final cut pro x. When i click, IMPORT MEDIA in FCP, It lists iPhoto Library as GRAY, and will not let me access it. I need the videos out of there. I have tried every way I can think of.

Like the title says...

I have also tried from the iphoto side, to export the videos or share them to final cut. I have had no luck.
I have tried to drag and drop indidual video clips from iphoto to fcp, and the programs simply do not respond to each other
I can see in the OLDER version of final cut pro x, where it has IMPORT FILES as an option, it was possible. I see this on forums and youtube videos of the older versions.
However, the newer version that i have, does not have IMPORT 'FILES' as an option, it is simply all lumped together as IMPORT 'MEDIA'
Thank You for the Help

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

I created a book in iBooks Author using the Photo Book template. When I rotate to portrait orientation, the photo or widget disappears and a table of contents appears with only the interactive media showing.

Thanx for the prompt response, KT. I have indeed seen that thread, only just after I posted the question.
I have spent hours on the phone with what I now know is a call center in Texas on this question.
I think Apple could be a little more "hands on" with iBooks Author users, and it should also be pointed out that landscape photos will not display in portrait mode.
In my case, I used gallery widgets to display vertical photos, since they look better in portrait mode.
But instead of simply rotating, the page disappears and a TOC of interactive media appears. The gallery behaves as expected when tapped. This is not what I expected, but since the gallery works, I can live with it.
Right now I have "tickets" telling me to "fix" this "problem or to disable portrait mode.
I don't want to disable portrait mode.
Will Apple accept the books if I tell them this is not an "error?"

Import media dialog is not showing me folders, instead showing me every singe file that's inside all of the folders on my desktop? What gives?

So i'm trying to import media that's on my desktop, one clip that's inside a folder. when I choose import media and the dialog box opens, I choose desktop to navigate to the folder but there are no folders found. FCP starts loading all of the files individually that are inside all of the folders on my desktop. I can't for the life of me figure out why it's doing this. Has anyone else had a similar issue?

DSounds like you have a folder on the desktop with the name of a camera folder something like DCIM or PRIVATE that makes the application read the containing folder the Desktop as if it were a camera drive.

"Save For Web" buttons change, favorite locations

Adobe,
Why did you move the Save, Cancel and Done buttons to the bottom of the Save For Web dialog box? In CS3 (which I just upgraded from) they were right above the file format/quality selectors, which was perfect for choosing a format and quickly clicking Save. Obviously the location of the buttons isn't urgent, I'm just wondering why you moved them to the bottom when probably all of the other dialog boxes have the buttons at the top (such as filters).
Also, why is the "favorite locations" feature only available when loading a file? Why isn't it there when saving?

Ask a marketing person about the concept of "New and Improved!" some time.

Is ti possible to label a set of tape with a specific media family. For eg. I want media family'xyz' to use tape only from location '1-6'. Is this possible in OSB

-Is it possible to label a set of tape with a specific media family. For eg. I want mediafamily 'abc' to use tape only from location '1-6' and media family 'xyz' to use tapes from location '7-12'. Is this possible in OSB.
-If not through media family, is there any other way to label tapes with customized lablels.
-Is it possible for a backup job to use the tapes from a set of tapes and backup should fail if the tapes are not found from the set. Even if the library has empty tapes.
I have read about Volume set, but I believe its something that is created automatically when the backup spans to the next volume after current volume is full.

CalendarUI element showing different date format for different locations

Hi,
I have an input field with date calendar in my webdynpro Java form . User can select date from this calendar and fill the input field. For this I have used input field in my layout and have binded this with one context attribute of type date. Say name of this field is requiredByDate
Now when I build and deploy my code, I can see the the required By date field and user is able to select date values from the calendar button next to the input field. The format of the date selected is mm/dd/yyyy.
However , when a user tests this application from other location say Malaysia, for him the format is coming as dd/mm/yyyy after selecting the date from the calendar.
Just want to know ,is there is difference in date format for differnt locations ? For India, when you select the date its showing mm/dd/yyyy and for Malayisa its showing dd/mm/yyyy.
Is there anything we can do by changing our system settings like timezone or dateformat in system settings.
I am using standard UI element and binding it with context element of type date.
Need your advice or help on this..
Thanks and regards,
Sai

My media drop menu for music, tv shows, etc. is missing in iTunes?

My media drop menu for music, tv shows, etc. is missing in iTunes?

A lot of it may be artwork. My iTunes is 40,000 songs (213Gb and I have almost 9Gb of artwork - and that's been downsized to 300X300 "web optimized" images too)
Also, there is a discrepancy between the way iTunes shows files size and the way OS X does.
iTunes (most likely because there is also a Windows version) uses "binary" calculations (1mb = 1024kb and so on) where OS X uses "decimal" calculation (1mb = 1000kb and so on).
120gGb in iTunes is 122,880mb. That same 120Gb in OS X is 120,000mb.
The files are the same size, but OS X will show more available space than iTunes will.
Still, artwork and duplicates are the #1 & #2 culprits.
Lastly, the bit rate of your music can be a factor. If everything is 320kbps or more... or Apple Lossless (800kbps+ usually) your music files are a lot bigger than you probably need, unless you're a music professional (DJ or producer). Try converting them down to a bit rate in the area of 160 or 192kbps. 192 is the MAX for anything in my library, because I only use it for home listening.

XAV-68BT receiver wont show "12" for hour using 12 hour clock

Got new XAV-68BT car DVD tuner. The clcok only shows "0" for the hour both for midnight and noon! How do I get that fixed?

Aperture uses the time formats defined in the System Preferences > Language & Reions > Advanced. Have you changed them?

Why can't I be able to search for a location in the HTC app?

So, it shows weather for my current locations just fine, but when I search for a specific location it won't find it! The only time it shows weather is when its your current location. And it finds a few areas, such as Anchorage, Alaska. But I would like to know if this is a bug because it should find the locations I search for. And, I do have other weather apps but I want to know why the HTC app isn't working. Thanks!

Hi Lizneedshelp,
Oh No! I'm extremely sorry to learn that you may be having issues with the HTC weather application on your device. I definitely understand how important it is to make sure this application is fully functional at all times. Do you mind sharing what the exact name of this application is? Are you referring to the imbedded weather application that cam on the device? Please share details, thanks!

Since 10.0.9 FCPX crashes at "Import Media"

Hi,
it never happend before, the problem has shown up after i updated fcpx.
I tried to import my footage, it´s from a panasonic hmc 151. 1080/50i, AVCHD.
I never had a problem before. It was always the some work around.
Open FCPX, insert SD-Card into the build in sd card reader, "import media", choose the filmes, set in and out point, import. finish.
After the update it starts that the footage will not be shown in the "import media" window. Ok, no problem I copied everything to my hard drive. Opened the "import media" window again. Nice, footage shows up. Now the problem, i can only see: clip1, clip 2 etc.
With the click on a file to preview or something final cut crashes within seconds.
Every time I try, what happend? Also with the Canon 550d/T2i Rebel footage.
No preview, straight crash.
I also saved the fail protocol, if someone needs it to help.
thank you for your help, philipp

Try trashing preferences; I regularly use Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion as my first remedy when FCP starts acting up.
What happens if you connect via USB cable? Are both Archive and Import available and do either work?

Places doesn't show up for geo-tagged photos from phone (Sony Ericsson)

So I have a Sony Ericsson T715, which has triangulation geo-tagging for photos, I can see their location through the phone no problem.
However, when I import them via the Bluetooth File Browser to my Mac and import them into iPhoto '09, their location does not show up the photos seem to hold no information on this.
Why is this? How should I import them so that this information stays? (Was a reason why I bought this phone.)
I tried looking at the phone/importing through Image Capture, but it doesn't seem to work... keeps randomly opening iPhoto and showing nothing. In Image Capture it shows the photos, but I can't import them - just says it's importing, but does nothing in the end.

No one but the people who made the phone if the data is not there then it is not there and it is not an iPhoto issue - it is a phone issue - their tech support is the place to go
iPhoto handles correctly formatted Geo Date in the correct EXIF fields - getting it there is the soure hardware's job

PS threadjacking is not the best way to get answers even if it is an iPhoto question - new threads that are on the subject are much more successful

Contact pictures for favorites keep disappearing

this is really annoying. I keep having to add pictures to my favorite contacts and they keep disappearing. I've done it about 5 times. I go to the gallary, find a picture, size it and save it. They show up for awhile and then disappear. Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue, Along with Calendar & clock freezing, No Power issue... (5 day old phone... Took back to Verizon the pulled the battery and phone restarted... But That Is Not Fixed )

Import dialog shows iPhone twice, and photo list only shows outlines

In Aperture 2.1.2 I have been able to import photos from my iPhone until just recently. Now the import dialog shows three choices of import devices/locations, Local Disk, RJH iPhone and a second RJH iPhone. If I select either iPhone the main window displays outlines of 7 images but no picture information except for the filename. If I actually try to import the pics it says 'Import completed with errors, the following files were not imported' and it lists all the filenames. One of the iPhone devices shows up in the import list EVEN WHEN THE iPHONE IS NOT CONNECTED!
I'm sure there is a plist or something that has the list of import devices bu I have not been able to find it despite extended web and support searches.
Anyone heard of this?

OK, I have since discovered that the second iPhone device is listed only when my iPhone is plugged into a DIFFERENT USB port on my MBP. If I plug it into the same port I usually use, it is only listed one. However, both Aperture and iPhoto still see one iPhone device whether it is plugged in or not, and both show images with outlines only and won't import photos. So strange

FCPX has suddenly started crashing when trying to import media

I updated FCPX to 10.0.8 a couple of weeks ago and everything has been fine until today (I'm fully updated with Mountain Lion as well) . Now every time I try to import media, FCPX crashes. This occurs right after I hit the "Import Selected" button -- and occurs regardless of type of media, where I'm importing it from, or how many clips. I get a very long error message -- I've attached just the first part of it (through Thread 0) below. The entire error message runs through Thread 37.
The only thing I did right before this happoened was to delete some old unused applications that were not even on the system HD (they were on a different internal HD - drive A). The applications included very old versions of Final Cut and iMovie that had not been opened in a couple of years. After I did this, FCPX suddenly started to recognize another internal HD (drive C) as a camera for the first time, and tried to import a bunch of old home movies, which it has never done before. And ever since then it started crashing when trying to import new media -- even after I "ejected" drive C.
Any ideas? I'm at a total loss and in the middle of a big project for a client, and could really use some help. Thanks!

I'th Mountain Lion as well. *and FCPX 10.0.7

Update: the problem is definitely with the internal HD "drive C". Before restarting FCPX after the last crash I unmounted the C drive -- then restarted FCPX and was able to import media just fine. I thought I had tried this already, but I guess not.
So, what did I change with my C drive when I deleted the old apps off my A drive? There is both an iMovie events and projects folder on the C drive -- but FCPX has never tried to import them until after I deleted the old iMovie app (I still have the most recent version of iMovie on my system drive -- but have never used it to open these old folders). I read on another thread on this forum that if I "hid" these folders, FCPX would not try to recognize them, so I moved them to within another folder on the same drive -- but FCPX is still trying to recognize and show them when the Import Media window is launched -- and still shows the C drive as a camera.
So, what can I do to stop this from happening?
Thanks!
