Is there a way to indicate used clips in your library like the orange line in iMovie?

I am going from iMove to FCP X, so far so good. The only thing I have a question with is how to know if I have used the clip already in my project. I know in iMovie, an orange line is displayed across the thumb clips.

being originally the iMovie guy here, this is the most missing feature in FCPX for me!
(and such a simple one, isn't it?)
actually, I'm helping me with the shift-F command: it displays the origin of a clip in the timeline in my Event. In a 'chronological' project (=editing soccer games) it helps me to find my last 'exit'.-
.. but a (switchable) orange line would be of great help, indeed ...
you too should make an enhancement request

Is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ?

is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ? because i dont have that much memory and i wanted my external hard drive to be the source for my music files and not my computer.

Many users keep their iTunes libraries on external drives. You just have to remember to connect and power up the drive before launching iTunes.

Hello I have a 3G and a 4G iphone, purchased in Australia where I lived. But, now I am living in the USA. I understand both iphones from Australia have GSM language - Is there any way I can use either of these iphones in the USA?

Hello I lived in Australia for 3.5 years, using a 3G and a 4G iphone. In April I moved back to the USA and would like to use one of these iphones. I understand Australia iphones use a GSM language and AT&T is the only carrier that will allow me to use for the GSM. When trying to sign up with AT&T, the SIM card would not work. When visiting Apple in Walnut Creek, CA, they said that these iphones I have cannot be used in the USA.
Before moving back to the USA, I visited the Apple Store near Sydney and they said I could unlock them to use them in the USA. THey did something with the 3G iphone, but when I was at AT&T in Walnut Creek, I could not get the 3G to work.
Bottom line: can I use either my 3G or 4G iphone that I bought in Australia here in the USA?
Thank you for your help.
KInd regards,
Susan Williams

You should contact the carrier (in Austrailia I presume) to which they are locked to as they are the only ones that can unlock your iPhone.

Is there any way to compile FLA files into SWF files on the command line?

I am using Adobe Flash CS4 Professional on Windows XP. To facilitate automated nightly builds, I have been searching for a way to compile my SWF files from the FLA files under source control, but without luck. The tools in the Flex SDK looked promising, but we do not use Flex. Thanks!

Seen these?

Is there a way to print/convert a file to PDF from the Command Line? If so, how?

I'm trying to do something that I imagined would be really simple, but I haven't found a good resource on how to thus far. I'm trying to do something along the lines of this:
Acrobat.exe /print inputfile.xls outputfile.pdf.
Does anything like this command exists?

For automating Acrobat there are many interfaces for programmers, but no command line like that. (Microsoft declared command lines dead almost 20 years ago, but they've been an unconsionable time a dying).

Is there any way to record other apps in garageband? Like the animoog or ms20?

This is so important to utilize the sounds from my other apps. I need to connect audio from other apps to route into garageband as if they were plug ins that can be read as a garageband track. It would be even better if you could sync garageband midi to control these other apps. That would make ipad a complete production tool. It seems the ipad is powerful enough to run 2 apps at the same time.. So when will this be possible?

Not a question anyone here would be in a postion to answer.Nor is it clear Apple is all that interested in making the iPad "a complete prodcution tool". Difficult to say. You can offer Apple feedback here:

Use the search feature and type in Flash and there are like thousands of posts on this.

I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog. Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
DVI
Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
Analogue
There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
HDCP
HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
Resolution and aspect ratio
I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)

The latest version of iTunes does not allow me to open a playlist in a separate window. I need this feature. Is there another way? You used to be able to double click a playlist and have it appear in a new window.

Others have commented on this too. It seems to be one of the 'improvements' of the newer version you are supposed to embrace with joy as an exciting new development. You can send feedback to Apple but realize you may be perceived as standing in the path of progress.

Is there any way I could use my own apple ID to buy in-app purchases even if I used my aun'ts apple ID to install the app?

I have an Apple Account registered in the U.S & no credit card linked (since im under 18). I always use my Aunt's account because I buy in-app purchases and other stuffs in the app store, I also used her account to download the app I play but she changed her password and gifted me a gift card to redeem in my own apple ID...
But whenever I wanted to buy something from the game it asks for her password and not mine, I changed the logged in apple account in the iTunes & Apple Store hoping not to re-install the app because I achieved so much in the game..
Is there any way I could use my own apple ID to buy in-app purchases even if I used my aun'ts apple ID to install the app?

No, all apps are tied to the account that downloaded them, so only that account will be able to make in-app purchases within them - you would need to delete the game (which would also delete your progress/settings in it) and buy/download it with your account to be able to make in-app purchases with your own account.

Hi champrider,
You can use an application such as Apple Remote Desktop to control your iMac remotely. See this article -
OS X Mavericks: Allow access using Apple Remote Desktop
This help page will provide you with some other useful resources for Apple Remote Desktop -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

My husband bought an iPad 2. I have a Mac. ITunes is in my name but I have turned sharing on. When we updated to OS5 we lost all the free apps that he downloaded in his user name. Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software.

Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software. He is frustrated using the iPad because he never knows whether to use his user name or my user name.

Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

When I send an email with Mail, I often confuse the account which I'm using. The result is that I send a message with the wrong account! Is there a way to avoid this (for example a reminder before the email is sent)?

When I send an email with Mail, I often confuse the account which I'm using. The result is that I send a message with the wrong account! Is there a way to avoid this (for example a reminder before the email is sent)?

Hi, thanks for the answer, I did that already. Unfortunatly this doesn't help me at all, as I often forget to check the menu. For me composing the message is writing the text, the subject, the person to who is addressed and than press "send".
I often forget to check the "from", and this is a problem because the software select itself one of the accounts.
Isn't there a way at least to put as a default a blank field instead of one of the accounts? or an account which doesn't work so if I forget to specify the "from" I will be rnotofied that the message can't be sent.
I guess this could be a rather common problem for many people!
Thanks

I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
Be well...
