If you use MPEG Streamclip, employ the "Export to Other Format" and create a series of still images. That will produce 60 pictures for each second. Then, when you use MPEG Streamclip to recombine the pictures into a video stream (Quicktime, etc) then set the frame rate at 30. In this way, your video will be expanded to two times is original size and half the apparent speed with all the frames included.
I have done this many times and, while it will take a little working with MPEG Streamclip to understand the order in which to do things and settings for each, its worth it. It's a great program.

I am trying to import songs to my new macbook pro from my old computer using home sharing. Both computers say that home sharing is now on but neither show up in each other's library menu. I am logged on with the same apple id for both computers.

I am trying to import songs to my new macbook pro from my old computer using home sharing. Both computers say that home sharing is now on but neither show up in each other's library menu. I am logged on with the same apple id for both computers. and both are on a stable wireless connection

Logging into itunes store on each machine wth different Apple IDs is OK Autorising each others machines with the other Apple ID is OK. This is completley separate from Home Sharing
For Home Sharing to work you need to
File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share.
You need to select one of the two Apple IDs you are using and ENTER THIS ON BOTH MACHINES WHEN CREATING THE HOME SHARE.
Home sharing will then work

Importing and exporting from cc premiere pro is very slow

importing and exporting from cc premiere pro is very slow, the system has i7 processor and memory is 64 gb and has internal raid storage. what could be the issue.

If you would like to test the tuning and setup of your Premiere installation go to our Premiere Pro BenchMark PPBM, the Instructions page has the download file. This single download can test Premiere 6, 7 or 8 with the identical benchmark. We maybe able to tell you why you are having problems.

The new Nokia Pro Cam is not user friendly AT ALL ...

After the Amber update on my Lumia 920, I downloaded the new Nokia Pro Cam app, due to most people claiming that it produces very good quality photos. I agree that the photos clicked using Pro Cam are of better quality than those clicked with the built in camera app. But this Pro CAM is not at all user friendly.
First thing is the most frustrating. The built in camera app allows taking photos by just touching anywhere on the screen, but the Pro Cam required you to touch one specific spot on the screen for this purpose. This is highly inconvenient, especially when taking self photos using the main camera. I know that the photo can be clicked even using the camera launch button, but this serves no purpose because pressing that button actually shakes the phone a bit and makes the photo blurry.
The next thing is, the settings of Pro Cam are denoted by symbols and not text. Camera professionals may feel comfortable with these images, but for the common man, its really difficult to understand what these symbols actually mean. I don't understand how Nokia came up with the idea of complicating matters by replacing the text with symbols for settings.
Finally, there are no settings at all for the front camera, which is also a disappointment becasue we're forced to use the deafult settings.
Hence, in spite of better image quality with this Pro Cam, I'd rather stick with the built-in camera app because the Pro Cam is too cumbersome and tedious to use. So what do you people feel about this Nokia Pro Cam?

Hi,
Maybe the following explanations can help.
1. There is a plus point to this also. Suppose you need to only focus on a subject and not shoot straight away. You can do that by touch the screen where you want to focus, without actually taking the shot. Shot can then be taken by pressing the dedicated on-screen shutter button.
I actually prefer it this way. You just can do that in the WP8 camera app.
2. Here again, all the symbols used are standard photography symbols you will find on any dedicated camera. Even they don't have full names, only symbols. This should not be a major problem, you will learn very quickly what all these symbols mean.
3. People usually use front camera for video chat (or to check if your hair is ok or not!). The requirement for video chat is that you don't need a very high end image/video quality. Moreover, the front facing camera quality is not that good too, so there is no point is providing all that functionality used for rear camera.
You can try using Nokia Glam Me lens, to add some post processing to selfies.

Imported MP4 clip from my HD will not thumbnail

I created a new project then imported an MP4 clip from my HD as a new event but it does not thumbnail. When the event is selected the event window says "video not found" The same clip playsjust fine on Quicktime. I tried closing iMovie and reopening to no avail. I also tried deleting and reimporting. It still says video not found and I cannot drag the event into the project window.

I have the same camera, and I have imported mp4 videos at 30p successfully into iMovie 9.09.
However, I'm running Mavericks (10.9.1), and I pull the SDHC card from the camera and plug it into the slot in the back of the Mac. I did consider importing directly from the camera, but to do that you have to put the camera into Playback mode, select the AVCHD playback, and only then connect to the Mac via USB; if the camera doesn't give you dire warnings after the USB connection, iMovie won't be able to import anything: See http://www.amazon.com/review/R2KMTEI2HV1E8M/ref=cm_srch_res_rtr_alt_1 The camera import dialog in iMovie 9.09 has a dropdown menu at the bottom of the dialog on the left allowing you to choose the AVCHD or MP4 selections from the camera.
I'm now moving to iMovie 10 which while it has its problems and editing is not very intutitive, is much faster at importing from the camera and exporting the edited movie. I use mChapters from the App Store to add chapters to the exported movie (after changing the exported file suffix from mp4 to m4v in the Finder). So for my purposes, I can pretty much use iMovie 10 for the same applications as I did with 9.09.
As suggested earlier on this Thread, upgrading to Mavericks and at least iMovie 9.09 will likely allow you to use your camera as you wish. iMoive 10 will give you expanded options with the camera.

Retrieving imported AVCHD files from Final Cut Pro X

Hi there, does anyone know how to retrieve raw AVCHD clips from Final Cut Pro X, after they have been imported? I shot some footage on my GH2 and it DID import from the camera into FCP X, but it's not running smooth at all. I heard that it's better to convert the files into pro res first, but I wanted to see if it worked. It does work, but not very well. So now I want to find the original video files I imported and convert them into pro res and then import again. Anyone had experience with this?

I think it all comes back to work flow. The whole reason I have opted to convert the original files to pro res is because it is choppy in the timeline when I'm editing. It seems it's true that FCP X really prefers to work with 'optimized media'...or Pro Res instead of reformatted versions of AVCHD. I would like to work with this original format, mainl because the footage isn't as compressed and hasn't lost a generation...and look absolutely pure and gorgeous in high bit rate from my GH2, however, what choice do I have but to convert to Pro Res if I am unable to edit smoothly? I think Ian had the right idea when he said to compare the footage of both, but again, if I can't even edit in AVCHD then what's the point? I think Apple needs to rectify this in the next update as I'm sure there are so many users out there who would prefer editing in this original format. Is there a noticeable loss of quality, that's what I am curious about.

Importing DV files from Final Cut Pro 4.5 to iMovie 6.03

I have a DV quality exported file from file cut pro 4.5 complete with Chapter markers. When I play it in QuickTime - it looks fine - complete with chapters sub headings ( pull down menu) on the bottom right corner - and a white line at the top - with very clear text telling me what chapter I am on right now.
When I drag this same file into iMovie 6.03 - after the import procedure stops - and I tried to play the movie - I noticed that the little white line showing the chapter marker titles - looks very smudgy/ pixilated.
I was under the impression that if I imported a DV quality movie into iMovie - there would be zero degradation - however this appears to not be true.
Question: What is going on here - is the video degraded by importing DV to imovie? Why would the little white line at the top look bad? How can I fix this - is there a better way to import without using a camera?

Why work in iMovie if you have FCP anyway?
good question - because this time I was having problems in FCP and had the mistaken notion that imovie might be easier... guess not

Transferring photos from new Macbook Pro to older laptop

My new MacBook Pro has Thunderbolt and 800 Firewire and I need to back up 26 GB of photos to an older laptop MacBook with Firewire 400. I dont want to do it over the network which is too slow for this much info. Any suggestions?

I do this kind of thing quite a bit, and it all depends on what kind of storage options that are available.
1. I have several pen drives, a few 16gb in storage, that I use to transfer data from one computer to another. If you have 26gb of music, the transfer should't be too long.
2. I also own a few Seagate portable drives, which are great for transferring data. It's also fairly fast. I use a USB to USB2 cable to do the transfer; my cable came with the drive.
One easy way to figure out which cable you need would be to visit your Apple Store; they should be able to tell which cable to purchase.

Can't back up to old Time Machine from new Macbook Pro.

TM wants to copy everything to external HD, not just back up the changes as per how i did it on my older 2007 Macbook. The external 320GB HD has only 13GB left and is trying to send all 300GB from new machine to it, not just any changes i've made in last few days since getting the new Macbook Pro.

As r8er says, Time Machine will do a full back-up of the new Mac -- you cannot prevent it.
Also, that's much too small a drive. See #1 in

Import to iPhoto From New Scanner

Scanning photos from new Epson Perfection V37. Scans go well and are saved into "My Pictures". However, when trying to import into iPhoto I get an error message that says unable to import due to unrecognizable format. It shows format as /users/myname/pictures/img044.jpg. They are scanned as jpg and saved as jpg. Why does iPhoto not recognize the format? Stumped.

Ok
what is the color profile of these images? for iPhoto they should be sRGB
If you scan as Grey Scale they will not work they must be sRGB - what color profile are they?

Uninstall Leopard from new Mac Pro

Got a brand spankin new Mac Pro at work which was thrilling until it became obvious that nothing works with Leopard (which is what came on the Mac). Too many of our vital apps won't work with Leopard (read Adobe CS2) and the boss isn't prepared to update everything to be compatible with Leopard, plus it's not even possible to update some of them.
So what is the least painful way to get Tiger on this computer?
We don't own an external drive.

Hello,
Unless you have a copy of Tiger for Intel, you cannot do it. The "off the shelf" version of tiger is for the PowerPC. If you can get ahold of a Mac Pro Tiger reinstall DVD set, then you could try to do an erase and install of tiger. I am not sure if you are going to see any issues or not with Tiger on the new hardware. I would guess not, but you never know.
Ebay might be a good place to look for a mac pro reinstall dvd.
Just pop in the dvd, press and hold "C" before the computer chimes and it should boot to the CD, after that it is as easy as apple.

How do I import mp4 video files into Premiere Pro Cs4

For sometime now, I've been finding it practically impossible to import video files into premiere Pro cs4 especially mp4 files which happens to be the commonest to me now, as I currently shoot with a Nokia Lumia 920 phone with Windows phone 8 OS. I have tried severally to convert the videos into various other formats using Xilisoft video converter version 7.7.2 and each time I do this, they would either not play fine in cs4 or not import at all.
Please what can I do to be able to import these mp4 files into Cs4 or what format or how do I convert them into a format that would play seamlessly for better editing?
Funny enough, I had once imported video files that were shot with the same phone and they worked well, just wondering why they aren't now.
Please any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks
NKC

I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
Kindly inform us if it works.
Thank you all.
Cheers.

QTP can't read .mp4 files from JVC HM-100 cam...

My QTP gives me the following message when I try to open an .mp4 file created with a JVC HM-100 camera: "The movie could not be opened. The movie contains some invalid data."
VLC and iSkysoft (video converter) can read the file with no problem, so it can't be corrupt. I put a similar post in a thread about the JVC cam, but no one knew a solution.
Right now, it looks like the only way to convert the mp4 files from the JVC HM-100 is to buy a video converter software for $50 because QuicktimePro, which cost me $30, can't do this, even though it claims to support mp4. Any ideas here?
So in lieu of QTP, are video converters like iSkySoft reliable enough to use? Do I risk losing any quality? Am I forced to pay for 3rd party functionality again that I already paid for in QTP?
Thanks... David

Problem solved.
I used the FREE software ffmpegX to convert the mp4 files.
So why does FREE software do the job that PAY software like QTP promises to do, but can't deliver?
Hmmm?
