In and out point feature not working

I am a teacher at a tech school and I teach Premiere Pro CS5.5  I teach my students how to use the in and out points in the source clip monitor and then to select the button to insert or overwrite that section to the time line.  I also teach them how to use the in and out point in the timeline monitor and then to select the button to lift or extract that section from the time line.  For some reason this works for most of the students, but not for all.  I actually had it happen to my project during a demonstration.  Sometimes the action that you wanted on the timeline will not happen.  The playhead may slide over like it worked, but the clip is not there or the extraction never happened.  I check all the other video tracks to try to see if it is on another track, but it is not.  The fact that it works for some students and not others, makes me think that maybe it has to do with the type of video clip they are working with (similar to the mono/stereo/5.1 differences with audio clips).  I have to be missing something.  Help!

You didn't say Mac or Windows, but my experience on Mac is that some features of Pr 5.5.2 just stop working, and can only be brought back by an app relaunch, a reboot, or by trashing the preferences (Hold option down while launching from the Dock.).
But... some of what you describe could also be caused by not selecting the track selectors in the Timeline panel properly.

  • Pinch in and out on trackpad not working to zoom in and out in firefox

    Ever since i bought my macbook pro (early 2011) I was able to use the pinch in and out trackpad feature to zoom in and out in firefox. This suddenly stopped working a couple of days ago. It still works in safari so this seems to be Firefox specific. All other trackpad features are still working too.
    I uninstalled Firefox on my mac by moving the Firefox icon to the trash and downloaded/installed it again. Note that i didn't delete my profile (just deleted the Firefox icon) so all bookmarks were preserved even after downloading and installing Firefox from scratch. This didn't help fixing the issue.
    Any ideas on this problem ? how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    All these programs seem to be for windows. I am facing the issues with firefox on a macbook pro.
    I wasn't suggesting resetting Firefox. I have already done this step a couple of days ago as I was facing connectivity issues with some websites completely freezing and not loading. reset didn't help. I started seeing the trackpad issue around the time i did the reset.
    I am wondering if uninstalling Firefox and deleting all data associated with it (profiles etc) would fix the issue. Can you advise on what should be deleted with firefox?

  • Embed and Copy Link Feature not working

    How do you get the embed and copy link feature to work on the website? It's not working!

    If the problem is occurring once you embed it then you should look at this FAQ: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1991

  • Adobe Read Out Loud feature not working

    Anyone else run into this.  We activate it, it scans the document looking for tags, then does not read it.  Any ideas?

    Hey there hdilios,
    Just been trying to sort this one out myself, I noticed that you tried re-installing Adobe Reader with the same result.
    Could it be that, when you installed the first time / updated and then re-installed, Adobe Reader Protected Mode was automatically re-applied by default. Read Out Loud will not function while in Protected Mode.
    You must disable it to hear Read Out Loud document reader, it is quite safe to disable this additional security function, and the only way to make it work.
    To disable Adobe Reader XI Protected Mode
    - Open Adobe Reader
    - Click menu item Edit
    - Select Preferences
    - Preference panel opens
    - Select Security (Enhanced) in Categories list
    - Uncheck Enable Protected Mode at Startup
    - Dialog opens Click Yes
    - Close Preferences
    - Close/Restart Adobe Reader
    - Open a document you wish to read
    - Activate Read Out Loud
    - Choose Option to read Page or Whole Document
    - or setup for Reading with the Accessability Assistant.
    Hope this is the answer you are looking for, my Read Out Loud feature is functioning fine now it had me baffled for a while, thought my sound card was malfunctioning.
    Cheers Jethro

  • Free/Busy availability and Out of Office not working after Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010

    We just migrated from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 as an intermediate step before we get to Exchange 2013.  I want to make sure everything is working OK before we start the migration to Exchange 2013.  
    The users have Outlook 2010, and there are 2 issues.  They can't view free/busy times for other people using the scheduling assistant, and they can't set their Out of Office messages.  If they go in through Outlook Web Access, then these features
    work!
    I've searched the forums, and I see a few similar issues, but I don't think this is related to the .Net issue on the CAS server.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
    --Kent 

    Hi Kent,
    Try checking the free busy info Outlook 2010 with running  /cleanfreebusy switch
    Check the Free/Busy System Public Folder and pointed out to the correct server on each mailbox DB in Exchange 2010
    Find the public folder replica database
    get-publicfolder -Identity "\NON_IPM_SUBTREE\SCHEDULE+ FREE BUSY" -Recurse | fl name,Replicas
    In E2k10 check if the exchange 2003 is added in the replica list. If not try adding them and check.
    force Public folder content replication.

  • Mouse pointer is not working correctly

    I have a MacBook Pro and the pointer is not working correctly.  It does not work smoothly and it is hard to get it to go where I need it to go.

    Hello billm46,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the trackpad on your MacBook Pro is displaying jumpy behavior. In this situation, I would recommend reading over and working through the suggested steps in the attached article.

  • No mark in and out points at batch capturing

    I have created logged clips to my browser window but, noticed that the IN and OUT points say NOT SET.
    Is this normal?
    As I create the logged clips for batch capture shouldnt I see the IN and OUT times?

    That's normal. When you set In and Out in the Log & Capture window, those points become Media Start and Media End in the Browser. And In and Out are left as Not Set.
    The rationale is that once you've captured, you'll review your clips and place In and Out points more precisely. In case you do want to stick with Media Start and Media End as your In and Out, simply load the clip into the viewer and press X on your keyboard - that will set your In and Out (at Media Start & End) for your clip.
    Now - you know there had to be one caveat - the only time this is not the case is when you check the box to Add Handles in the Batch Capture dialog. In that case, when FCP captures the clips, it extends the Media Start and Media End by the handle amount and uses the In and Out that you specified during logging as the In & Out for that clip in the Browser.

  • In and Out points not showing in source monitor

    I've noticed this in the past couple of days: setting in and out points in the source monitor, the indicators don't show in the time ruler.  In other words, even though I set the in and out points, it looks like nothing has been selected. 
    If I put the clip into the timeline, the in and out points I chose are respected, but they just don't seem to register in the source monitor, so I can't have confidence in what I have selected.
    If I open another clip in the source monitor, then go back to the one I was working on, magically the in and out points are there again.  Strange...
    At the same time, if I apply audio gain to a clip in the source monitor, it sometimes doesn't "take".  It shows that gain has been added, but there is no change in the sound volume when I play it back in the source monitor.  Again, if I put the clip in the timeline, the volume is as it should be and the waveform reflects this.
    So, is there some underlying bug affecting how clips are dealt with in the source monitor?
    I'm on the latest version of Premiere CC 7.2.1 on Windows 8

    Thanks for these suggestions.  I'll try and answer each one:
    Is the Source Monitor zoomed out to show the whole clip? If not, please zoom out to see if the In/Out points are getting painted in the wrong place initially.
    Yes, it is zoomed out.
    Do the clips have non-zero start timecode? If so, please try with a clip with zero-based timecode. (If you don't have one handy, you can create one fairly easily by exporting a sequence with start TC of 0;00)
    The problem is intermittent and in this project all the clips are DSLR .mov files.  The problem occurs with some of these and not others.
    Have you done anything like setting a custom start timecode or interpreting footage to change the frame rate?
    I haven't set a custom timecode.  It's true that there is a mix of 24p and 25p clips in the project, but surely this only presents issues in the timeline rather than the source monitor?  In any case, I haven't gone to interpret footage on these clips.
    Is this happening with all types of project items, including simple clips on disc, or only with certain items like merged clips, multicam sequences, subclips...?
    In this project, the only type of clip I'm using is simple clips.  There are nested sequences; I'm not sure, but possibly the problem has also presented itself when these are brought into the source monitor - but not exclusively with those.
    I hope this helps.  This is the first project I have worked on since the latest upgrade and I didn't come across this problem before.  As I say, it is intermittent, and it's hardly crippling - just annoying when it happens!
    Thanks

  • Help with in and out points not synced to footage correct

    When trying to insert a clip from the source material into the sequence timeline, using insert/overwrite function , dragging in the clip etc. any of the methods to bring the clip in from a given In and out point. Certain clips are failing and coming in as different in and out points. So the footage or clip/sublip in the source material comes in with the same lenght but the program is selecting a random different portion of the scene to put into the sequence. Please help. We are on deadline for a project :(. If anyone knows whats going on please help.

    It sounds like you're running into a known issue with subclips from merged clips, which the engineering team is working on.
    Unfortunately, there's no way to fix the subclips. Rather than making subclips, you could try one of the following:
    Duplicate the merged clip in the Project panel and set the desired In/Out range for each instance. For all intents and purposes, this is the same as creating a subclip--at least a "soft" subclip, which is what you get when you deselect the option to Restrict Trims to Subclip Boundaries. Admittedly the workflow is not quite as efficient, but the results are the same.
    If it's not essential to save subclips to the project, then simply load the merged clip in the Source Monitor, use In/Out points to define a segment, and insert the segment into your sequence, then repeat for the next segment of interest.

  • Compressor 3.02 In and Out Points Not Correct

    This is a follow up to my compressor truncating movies post. I'd like to reiterate that my workflow has not changed and no new software has been added to my system. This work flow used to work like a charm, however after the most recent pro applications update this bug surfaced.
    If i drag and drop any uncompressed .mov into compressor, compressor incorrectly detects the in and out points for that clip and truncates the file on output. It seems to be by the same amount every time.
    Example:
    Clip 1 is a 320x240 uncompressed .mov file created and exported directly from final cut pro (exported as self-contained). the file is 1:53:32 in duration.
    Drop that clip into compressor and it sets the in-point at 59:56:09 (it does this every time no matter what clip i try to compress...) and incorrectly reports the duration of the movie as 1:53:05. these in and out times and duration are found in the preview window. no in and out points are set in compressor.
    this being said, the resulting output file (same size, same frame rate - no changes to timing) is truncated and the last 4 seconds and change are cropped off the end of the clip.
    Any ideas? anybody else have the same kind of problem and find a fix?
    I've trashed preferences to no avail... help!
    karl

    right - the question is... what do we do about it?
    i have been able to narrow this down to a problem with footage that's 23.98 fps only however as this is part of my 24p workflow - and because it's the only reason i'm using fcp at this point -- in essence, this problem renders the entire final cut studio useless.
    so frustrating!
    who's found a workaround/fix for this?? i've been using this same workflow successfully for years and in previous versions of final cut. this problem only surfaced in the past couple of weeks.
    AAARGH!

  • Why am I not able to mark "in" and "out" points in Final Cut Pro 6?

    I have a bunch of old tapes that I am trying to put on my computer.  I have Final Cut Pro 6 and everything hooks up nicely except I am not able to mark in and out points or use capture now.  Does anyone out there know why that would be the case?
    I appreciate any help I can get.

    What VTR? How is it controlled?
    What are your capture settings? Firewire Protocol?
