Importing AAC Files in the new Leopard import window

While I love the new open/import menu with the sidebar that lets you add photos from iPhoto and music from iTunes etc by browsing them inside the window, for some reason it won't let me add normal (not protected) AAC files from my iTunes library. MP3 files seem to be fair game, so what's the problem?
Bizarrely, it will let me add protected AAC files, although they come up silent when I try and play the sequence.

An MP3 on the timeline behaves in the most unpredictable way.
I tested it and I had to convert it into AIFF to work on the track.
The problem was not so much the rendering issue.
One example:
I had to change the speed to a track. The caption on the audio track on the timeline would indicate the modified speed percentage but the actual speed
would always remain the same (100%). Tried several times with slight adjustments
but nothing changed.
I do think that MP3 is not a real option (It definitely isn't for me).

Can I import and open raw files on the new photo app?

Hi,
Can I import and open raw files on the new photos app on my ipad? Does it convert it to jpeg automatically when you want to share them?
Thanks.

Clem is telling you to click on the View menu, move the pointer down to the item "Metadata," & from its choices make sure "Show Titles" is selected. Do this, then make sure you are in a view in the main window that shows one or more videos (or whatever) that you want to title. Click once on one of them, & if the separate Info window is not open, open that (on the Windows menu or command + i as a keyboard shortcut). In the Info window the top line will be "Add a Title."
Click once on that & type your title.
This works for any item, video or photo.

Problems with importing .MP4 file and the audio in FCP 6

Hi all,
I am pretty new to Final Cut Pro and have just approached my first project.
I have a Samsung VP-MX20
http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/detail/spec.do?group=cameracamcorder&type=cam corder&subtype=flashcamcorder&model_cd=VP-MX20/XEU&fullspec=F
*Codecs H.264, AAC.*
I needed some space on the camera so halfway through a holiday i transfered all the video files from the camera to my Laptop.
I have imported these files from the hardrive
Vid rate - 25 fps
compressor - H.264
Pixel Aspect - PAL - CCIR 601
What seems to be the problem is ok when i drag the clip from the viewer to the canvas and apply insert, i get the box that says 'Change Sequence settings to match the clip settings?
i click yes and when the clip is layed out on the timeline there is a red line above the timeline, when i play the clip i only get bleeps as audio and not the original sound.
If i drag the playhead i can hear the audio but if i try to play all i hear us bleeps plus if i import an mp3 the red line appears above the timeline and the same applies
can anyone help me here.
Thanks
Elles

Hi Zak,
many thanks for your reply, i have contacted Apple and taking your advice and using compressor i have converted the codec H.264 to Apple Pro Res 422 for interlaced material.
I have imported this file and when i drag once again from the viewer to canvas i get the standard box asking to change the sequence to match the clip.
I am still getting the red line above the timeline and bleeping as audio.
any idea?

Can't Import AAC file into Premier CS4

Hello!
As the title says, I'm not able to import AAC files into my Premier Pro projects. The funny thing is that these files were created in Premier Pro CS4, so what gives? I took the audio out of a video and exported ONLY the audio in AAC format. But when I want to import these files into a project, it gives me a file not supported message. What am I doing wrong?

It says the codec is installed, so it should work no? I mean, like I said in the OP, I created these files in Premier Pro. I find it odd that I can't import files I created in the same program I used to export them.
I do agree that if you Export a file from a program, it should Import into that same program. That similar once did, but do not now, indicates that something has changed. Trying to find out what that is can be a bit time-consuming and can lead to dead ends.
I would try the Export again, but use PCM/WAV, to make sure that that method, format will work.
Good luck,
Hunt

When I import my files only the audio plays back not the video. If I export the sequence its there?

When I import my files only the audio plays back not the video. If I export the sequence its there?
I am new to Premiere having just downloaded the 30 day trial yesterday, I jumped straight in and imported all of my files from my video camera however in Premiere only the audio plays back with the displays just showing a black space.
Out of curiosity I dragged three or four shots into the sequence editor and then exported them and played this through VLC and the video was there?
As I said I am completely new to Premiere having only spent around 3 or 4 hours with it in the past, I read a few forum threads around similar issues but couldn't find any solutions and as I am trying to edit together a short film for a college project due in soon I need to try and find a way to fix this A.S.A.P
Any help would be appreciated and if theres any more info I can provide please let me know.
Thanks

If you look at the User Tips tab, you will find a write up on just this subject:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4053
The subject of buying/selling a Mac is quite complicated. Here is a guide to the steps involved. It is from the Seller's point of view, but easily read the other way too:
SELLING A MAC A
Internet Recovery, and Transferability of OS & iLife Apps
Selling an Old Mac:
• When selling an old Mac, the only OS that is legally transferable is the one that came preinstalled when the Mac was new. Selling a Mac with an upgraded OS isn't doing the new owner any favors. Attempting to do so will only result in headaches since the upgraded OS can't be registered by the new owner. If a clean install becomes necessary, they won't be able to do so and will be forced to install the original OS via Internet Recovery. Best to simply erase the drive and revert back to the original OS prior to selling any Mac.
• Additionally, upgrading the OS on a Mac you intend to sell means that you are leaving personally identifiable information on the Mac since the only way to upgrade the OS involves using your own AppleID to download the upgrade from the App Store. So there will be traces of your info and user account left behind. Again, best to erase the drive and revert to the original OS via Internet Recovery.
Internet Recovery:
• In the event that the OS has been upgraded to a newer version (i.e. Lion to Mountain Lion), Internet Recovery will offer the version of the OS that originally came with the Mac. So while booting to the Recovery Disk will show Mountain Lion as available for reinstall since that is the current version running, Internet Recovery, on the other hand, will only show Lion available since that was the OS shipped with that particular Mac.
• Though the Mac came with a particular version of Mac OS X, it appears that, when Internet Recovery is invoked, the most recent update of that version may be applied. (i.e. if the Mac originally came with 10.7.3, Internet Recovery may install a more recent update like 10.7.5)
iLife Apps:
• When the App Store is launched for the first time it will report that the iLife apps are available for the user to Accept under the Purchases section. The user will be required to enter their AppleID during the Acceptance process. From that point on the iLife apps will be tied to the AppleID used to Accept them. The user will be allowed to download the apps to other Macs they own if they wish using the same AppleID used to Accept them.
• Once Accepted on the new Mac, the iLife apps can not be transferred to any future owner when the Mac is sold. Attempting to use an AppleID after the apps have already been accepted using a different AppleID will result in the App Store reporting "These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID".
• It appears, however, that the iLife Apps do not automatically go to the first owner of the Mac. It's quite possible that the original owner, either by choice or neglect, never Accepted the iLife apps in the App Store. As a result, a future owner of the Mac may be able to successfully Accept the apps and retain them for themselves using their own AppleID. Bottom Line: Whoever Accepts the iLife apps first gets to keep them.
SELLING A MAC B
Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
Step One - Back up your data:
A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
side.
4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
sure to opt for that.
Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
startup drive.
Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
4. Install OS X.
5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
6. Shutdown the computer.
B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
it is three times faster than wireless.
1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
Utilities window appears.
2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
*If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

How to import multiple files to the frame area?

How do I import multiple files to create animated GIF's. I
know how to import multiple files into the Fireworks, but if I'm
trying to create an animated gif that has alot of files, How do I
get them into the frames area. It is really a pain importing each
and every file one at a time frame by frame

merry1
after you bring in all your images to the canvas, select all
and in the
Frames Options drop down, select Distribute to Frames.
You can bring multiple images onto the canvas by copy and
pasting from
the folder(s) where they exist.

Running elements organizer 12 on mavericks can't import iphoto files since the option doesn't show up

Running Mavericks 10.9.3 with iphoto 9 loaded Elements 12 and went to import iphoto files - but the import option doesn't some "from iphoto" and the file/getphotos and videos/from iphoto doesn't show - what is the issue

I'm not sure exactly what you're saying, but you probably don't want to use "from iphoto" anyway. That's only for when you want to import your entire iphoto library (like when you decide you want to use organizer instead).
The first question is what are you trying to do? Do you just want to open photos from iphoto into the PSE editor or do you want to import them into the organizer for something?

Why can't i import AVCHD files via the Media browser?

No you need the private folder. This will open in the Browser.
Dont open just click.

What files does the new iMovie read?!

I am having a problem with my Mac reading my .MOD files that are being downloaded from my videocamera. I have a JVC Everio and they put the video files on my computer as .MOD as of right now my computer says they cannot read them. The first time I went to the Apple store they said to download .mpeg streamclip and that would convert the files to .MOV yet again that didnt work. When I just went back to the Apple store they said the new iLife 09 would need to conversion....so my question is and please somebody help me....will the new iLife work with .MOD files?!! and if I have a Mac 10.4.11 will I need to buy the new leopard for the iLife to work??

Some Everio's are supported by iMovie 09. [You can see which ones here|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3290]
Your .MOD files are MPEG2. The Apple Store put you on the right track with MPEG Streamclip, but you also need to buy the Apple QuickTIme MPEG2 Playback Component (costs $20, and you can download from the online Apple Store.)
Once you have installed this, I think that MPEG Streamclip will work to convert your files. Convert them to Apple Intermediate Codec in the same dimensions that your camera shoots in.
iMovie 08 will work just as well once you have converted the files in Streamclip. So, there are a lot of good reasons to upgrade to iMovie 09, but this is not one of them.
[Here is a list of supported camcorders for iMovie 08|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1014]
If your camera is on it, you can connect your camera to your Mac and import directly. Otherwise the MPEG Streamclip solution will work,
If you do decide to upgrade to iMovie 09 for other reasons, then yes, you will have to upgrade to Leopard.

Does Setup Assistant delete files on the new mac?

I just got a new Macbook Pro, and I'm trying to decide how to transfer all of my files from my old computer to my new one. The problem is that I'm a little paranoid about losing any files on the new computer. I once accidentally wiped my entire system on the old one after an incorrect restore and lost several important folders required for certain applications because they weren't included on the OS reinstallation CD. I don't want that to happen again. I've been reading about Migration Assistant and Setup Assistant, and it seems like they do pretty much the same thing, but I want to make sure that any files currently on the new Mac aren't deleted if I use Setup Assistant to transfer my old files.
Any advice for this particularly paranoid Mac user would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Paranoia is understandable; however, misplaced. Just follow the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

When will there be an update for RAW files from the new Olympus OM-D E-M10 for Lightroom 4?

Hello there,
when will there be an update for Lightroom 4 which provides the option to import RAW-files from the Olympus OM-D E-M10 directly into LR4?

Lightroom 5.0 came out in June 2013 with a public beta for LR5 available at Adobe Labs back in April 2013. It seems you may have been unlucky purchasing the old version just before the new version came out, or perhaps LR5 required a minimum OS level your computer didn’t have.
Purchasing a new version every year isn’t necessary, but you do have to buy a new version whenever you buy an unsupported camera.
Adobe employees need to get paid just like the rest of us, and their releasing a new payfor version every so often is how they get paid.
Never mind that the new version has improvements beyond new camera support, so there was a full development-release-training-marketing effort behind it.
The upgrade price is cheaper than the full purchase price and if you want Photoshop capabilities, there is a LR+PS Photographer’s Bundle that is half the price of purchasing Photoshop, itself:

Migrating data and settings from XP to Win7, do I have to overwrite the profiles.ini file on the new Win7 system with the old XP version of the file?

I have the Profiles folder and the profiles.ini file copied to a USB stick. I know I copy the Profiles folder content into the Profiles folder on the Win7 machine, but do I have to overwrite the profiles.ini file on the new machine too? Various strands of advice aren't clear on this. And are there any other files which also need to be migrated/overwritten? Clear directions would be welcome.

don't transfer, reinstall.
