Lift and Extract from Project Window.

I'm exploring areas I've never used in PP CS3.
I understand how Lift and Extract are SUPPOSED to work.
What I am experiencing is that unless a clip is in a certain layer (that is highlighted), it doesn't lift or extract.
In this case it's layer 4.
Based on how I've read this function is supposed to work,  I'd image it would extract from any clip under the lift/extract area.
However, unless the clip is in layer 4(in this project) it doest work. Move a clip to layer 4, it does.
Do I have some strange preference set?
The capture below shows the only layer that gets extracted. You can see the blue highlighted area in the pic below.
Only a clip that intersects with that layer will be lifted or extracted. Not the clip 2 layers below.

Solved.
Bizarre. All I had to do is select is select the layer on the left.
In my hundreds of hours in Premiere I have NEVER had the occasion OR need to select a layer...until now....and the lift/extract and even trim window are functions I've never used or missed.

    Buying AppleCare, at this point, would be a waste of money. You voided your warranty when you replaced your optical drive with a hard drive. Only RAM and hard drive bay customer alterations will not affect your warrany.
    You could have, I suppose, kept the optical drive and if your computer ever needed Apple repair, have replaced the hard drive for the optical again before taking it in for service. A little bit underhanded, but some people have done it.
    You're pretty much just out of luck now...

  • Lift and Extract have stopped working in Premiere Pro CS6.0.1

    Lift and extract have stopped working in a sequence in Premiere Pro 6.0.1. If a create a new sequence it works ok. It seems the sequence has got locked up it some way. Does anyone have any ideas.

    Thanks this worked but I found how to make it fail. I created a sequence with 3 stereo tracks and a 5.1 master. I then added a 5.1 audio track and deleted the stereo tracks. From then on the lift and extract fails.
    I couldn't find a way to submit a bug to adobe. Please can someone tell mehow to do this.

  • I have tried and failed to copy my iTunes library and playlists from my Windows 8 desktop to my Windows 7 laptop using an external hard drive. Can it be done? Help would be appreciated.

    Migrate an iTunes library from one computer to another
    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entireiTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one, with ratings, play counts, playlists etc. preserved. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd normally recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library and unlike copying with Windows Explorer the process can be resumed if it is interrupted and it will continue to the next item if there are any read/access errors.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See Make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Premiere Pro CC crash when dragging media from project window

    I have had so many problems with CC (2014) since the 8.1 update. The latest problem is interacting with media in the project window. In any version of PP (7, 8.0.1, 8.1), when I attempt to drag media from the project window to the timeline i get the "Premiere Pro CC has encountered a serious error..." crash. I am running a Macbook Pro i7, 16gb of ram, Nvidia GT 750m graphics card, on OSX Yosemite. I have tried clearing the media cache and clearing settings on startup with alt+shift. I have been using 8.0.1 because of previous problems with serious ui lag on 8.1. I have had more problems with PP in the last 3 months, than in the previous 7 years I've used it.

    Hi Huzzahbeard,
    Just out of curiosity. How is it that your software is hindered by a plugin in Chrome. I .... I have no words. This solved my problem and thats great except. Push Bullet is the issue! No, what is premiere even doing with my browser that push bullet would cause problems.
    I looked at our bug database and there is no real "reason" listed as to why this particular issue occurs (and it does affect a couple of our other non-video applications—InDesign and Illustrator, as well).
    A common troubleshooting step for when things go wrong with an application is to remove any recently installed applications or plug-ins. As I understand it, certain applications share resources which can affect each other. Since Chrome extensions are created using Javascript, I assume that is the area of conflict.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Missing Audio waveforms from Project window

    I'm hoping anyone can help me.  I'm trying to customize volume within a range of a song.  I've dragged the audio into my project timeline, however no matter what I try  I cannot get the waveform to appear.  I've tried absolutely everything I can think of including reverting layout of the project window. 
    I've worked with audio in projects before and feel I have a fair bit of experience with it but this one has really baffled me.
    As you can see from the image attached, waveforms from other audio clips are showing up just fine but the song running along the bottom, no workie. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    A period only has a UNIX function if it is the FIRST character in the name! (hide file from Finder view), so that is not the issue here. ;-)
    And Tom, why should the audio be AIFF?? I drag mp3/m4a files from iTunes ALL the time, without any issues - FCPX even has a native, build-in iTunes browser, so requiering AIFF seems strange, unless FCPX transcode it when it's dragged in!

  • Premiere Pro CS3: Can't drag and drop into project window

    I had been using PP CS3 with Windows 7 64-bit RC successfully for about half a year. Recently I did a clean install of the final, released version of Win 7, and now I cannot drag and drop into the project window.
    I am sure I used to be able to do this. Having to import every clip, instead of just dragging it from Bridge (CS4), is a major headache. Ok, a minor one. But is there anything I can do to regain this capability?
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Can I mark my own post as a "correct answer"? 
    I just discovered the problem isn't PP CS3 at all.
    The problem is Bridge CS4. Or, more accurately, how I am running it.
    In order to do drag and drop from Bridge, it needs to be executed in "Run as administrator" mode.
    So, fantastic! There is an quick, easy solution that works.

  • How do I retrieve bookmarks and passwords from a Windows backup, after OS re-install?I have a full Windows backup of my machine, pre re-installl

    I had to reinstall Vista 7 OS. I have a full Windows backup of my machine, prior to the re-installation. How do I retrieve the bookmarks and passwords from the backup? I understand they're stored in various files a ".default" folder in C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\mozilla\firefox\profiles. When I try restoring the folder, the files get skipped... When I try browsing for the individual files, I don't see them!

    Many thanks for your responses... After a little scouting on the web, I have found THE solution... This is all due to the way Windows 7 Backup works, and will NOT let restore apps...
    ("File restore in Windows7 is not designed to restore back applications. This is because the application state is spread across potentially multiple folders, files & registry. Windows7 file backup is not aware of where all the state is spread to be able to restore the entire application accurately as such information is internal to the application. Restoring application partially might corrupt the application and render the application unusable. So we do not allow restoring applications from file backup.
    In case files under C:\Program Files etc. are chosen for restoring, we block restoring files from backup to such locations as it might cause the applications to not function.'')
    What one has to do when restoring is to NOT attempt to restore to the original location, but to select the radio button which allows you to type a path where you want the files restored and type in the path of the original location!!! Then select copy and replace...A little quirky (and tedious), but it works!

  • How to transfer images and music from PC (Windows 7) to iPhone?

    Hello:
    Could someone please inform me how can I transfer images and music from a PC (Windows 7) to my iPhone (3GS)?

    Hi, RichardParker,
    I have also meet problems to transfer music from PC to iPhone, and I had solved it now. You can do the following steps,
    1. Copy music to your phone memory
    2. Exported contacts to SD Card (on Android phone) in VCard format
    3. Transfered VCard file from SD Card to PC
    4. Created a Google Account
    5. Opened the Google Account from a browser (on PC), go to Contacts, and then uploaded VCard contacts to the Google account
    6. Configured the iPhone (using a separate Windows user account - so as to allow for importing pictures & videos through iTunes)
    7. Created a "CardDAV" account on the iPhone and synchronised all Contacts
    If you have any question ,you can ask me about iPhone Transfer. And I hope the steps above works.

  • My wireless printer appears as offline on my Macbook, despite being visible on the network and printable from a Windows laptop on the same network. Was fine previously. Any thoughts?

    I have a MacBook Pro running 10.6.8.
    I have a wirelessly networked printer (HP PhotoSmart D110).
    All worked well until a couple of months ago.
    For reasons unknown, I stopped being able to print wirelessly to the printer from the Macbook. It appears as offline on the HP Photosmart utillity that pops up.
    I can print to teh same printer from a Windows PC on the same network.
    I have also logged onto the printer, using it's IP address and printed its test page, so obvioulsy not a printer fault as such.
    The old PowerBook on the same network doesn't print to it either.
    Grateful for any thoughts for quick tests or tips.
    Paul.

    Nice one Ron, you're a star.
    That was a complete fix.
    My preferences was slightly different, but it was the same approach.
    I had 4 printers listed. Some old ones that I no longer had and the one that didn't work. I deleted all of them, then hit '+'.
    It came back up, searched for new drivers, then I was able to print as per normal.
    Result.

  • Final Cut Pro X project timeline vanished from project window.

    I'm using Final Cut Pro X on my Intel based iMac running Snow Leopard. I was trimming a video file in the project timeline when the timeline vanished. The project window is there but the timeline is gone in all projects. Any ideas?

    Same thing just happened to me, I can preveiw the project still, and no it is not a matter of zooming out. There is no enter full screen option in snow leapord. This is a huge issue and needs to be addressed ASAP!
    The affected project is the music video, you can see that it is completely grey.
    This is what it looks like when you open the project, no timeline. Just a grey area.

  • A little export and delete and clear from project weirdness!

    If one exports media with the option to "Import it back to the Project"...thats fine.
    Now if one wishes to re do the Export (for whatever reason) and wishes to use the same file name....Media encoder wont allow you to.
    "Use a different name because its in the Project" it says.
    O.K so you think...I will Offline and Delete Media from the drive and then Clear offlined file from the Project... and then save Project.
    Guess what.  Its still in the project according to Media Encoder. 
    "Use a different name because its in the Project" it says.
    Simply an annoyance  .

    I could write a list if you wanted...but generally I can work around most of it.
    This one strikes me a lot though.
    I generally end up with Key numbers in the Sequence name as I get to lock down.  This is to make it easy to Export  (AME uses the Sequence name as the file name)

  • How to reveal from Project window where clip is used on timeline? CS4

    I've inherited a huge project. One of my tasks is to go through replacing all the audio (done as .mp3) and replace with .wav versions. In the project window's bins I have the .mp3 version sitting next to the .wav version.
    I'm sure I've seen a way that you can select a clip in the project window and get Premiere to show where on the timeline and in which sequence(s) this clip is used. I've searched the help and googled for the answer but can't find it! Have I been dreaming? Is there a way to show whereabouts in the project a clip is used? If there isn't, can anyone suggest a good workflow for me? I have about 150 .mp3s to replace with .wavs...
    Thanks
    Mark

    Mark,
    Great news! I thought that it had been added. I too inherited a major Project and could have used that 1000 times. Unfortunately, I am still on PrPro 2.0 (CS4 was not out then), so I had to do it pretty much manually. Fortunately, many of the Assets were in a semi-logical order, so it was not as tough as your case. Also, I was able to place the old edit into logical Sequences, so I was only working with 1 Timeline at a time, and not the original 8+ hour behemoth, that had been started. This limited my searches to maybe 100 Assets at a time.
    Glad that you found it, and now I can look forward to using it, when I upgrade.

  • Inconsistent behavior between lift and extract

    why does lift obey which tracks are enabled and extract works on every layer regardless of whether it is enabled or not (very annoying)

    really, nobody else finds this annoying.  I really cant figure out what the purpose is of enabling/disabling tracks in the timeline as it seems to have absolutely no effect most of the time.  Every once in a while enabling a track of the timeline does what it does in every other NLE I have ever used (either enables or disables the track for editing), however most of the time the state of selection has absoliutely no effect other than making the interface LOOK like other editing packages
