List view is blank in event browser

I have noticed something strange in Final Cut ProX. If I select an event in the Event Browser while in Film Strip View I can see all of the files that are in that event. If I click on the icon to show clips in List View, none of my files can be seen in the Event Browser. If I then click back on the Film Stip View, the Event Browser stays blank. The only way to get it working again in Film Strip View is to close and re-open Final Cut ProX.
Am i doing something wrong or is there a problem with the program. I purchased the Ripple Training series and it seems that I should be able to just jump back and forth between the two views.
Thanks for the help.

Due to the silence, I figured nobody else had this problem so I went ahead and called Apple for assitance. The issue turned out to some sort of corruption in my preferences. I was able to resolve the problem by trashing my preferences file.
In case some else has a similar strange issue, it is very easy to trash your preference file.
1) Close FinalCut Pro X
2) Open a finder window
3) Go to Library\Preferences
4) Find the file "com.apple.finalcut.plist"
5) Delete the file "com.apple.finalcut.plist"
6) Restart your computer
7) Open FinalCut Pro X and it should be like when you first started the program
This does not seem to impact any of your previously imported events or projects -- it just resets the program settings.

ICal List view doubling and tripling events on iphone... HELP!

List view worked great for the first month and then 2 recurring events started doubling. In the past week events started tripling. In the other views and on my desktop events are listed correctly, it is only in the list view.
I don't know what is going on and can't find any info on it... am I the only one with this problem?
I really like list view but it's driving me crazy to the point that I can't use it. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thank you!!

Re. imovie 9.0.4 Viewing a timeline in event browser?

How can I pinpoint specific cues in my event? That is, my event browser contains a 2hr long movie from which I want to pull out excerpts. So for example, how can I find the scene that begins at precisely 24 minutes 18 seconds. I am able to see a timeline on the project side, but not on the event side.

OK, so you have a single clip that is two hours long with no date metadata. Here is what I would suggest.
1) Create a new folder within your iMovie Events folder. Give it a name and copy this clip into it.
2) Change the name of this clip. If you know that date and time this clip was shot, you can use that. If not, today's date will do. Change the name of the clip to clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.ext
where: ext is the current file extension
hh is hours in 24 hour time.
If you want to see the actual clock time, e.g. 3:34PM, then use the time it was shot. If you just want to see the time as an offset from zero, use clip-yyyy-mm-dd 00;00;00.ext
3) Restart iMovie and let it generate thumbnails for this new event.
4) Now you can skim and see the time after clicking VIEW/PLAYHEAD INFO.

Cant view videos in the event browser

Normally, when you import a videofile into FCPX, and it appears in the Event, you can move over the clip with the mouse and it shows you the clip.
without changing any preferences from one day to another its not possible to do it..when i move the mouse over the clip, nothing happens..
when i click on it and drag the part i want, it works..
if anyone had the same problem it would be nice to hear any soloutions..

You may have accidentally turned skimming off. The keyboard shortcut is just the letter "s", so it is quite easy to hit by accident if, for instance, you were expecting to type something but the text box did not have focus.

Finder - Browse in List View, Finder - Browse in List View

In Lion there are now a couple of options are available when you right-click on a Finder window and click on Show View Options:
Always open in list view
Browse in list view
Whereas in Snow Leopard there is only one option:
Always open in list view
So my question is, what's the difference between these two new options in Lion? What exactly does "Browse in list view" mean?

The help file is a bit confusing since it says :
To set the current window to always open in list view, select “Always open in list view.” If the window has subfolders, you can also set them to open in list view.
That part where it says that if the window has subfolders, you can also set them to open in List view. That is what Browse means. So, if you have that checked, when you double-click on a folder in that window, it will open the subfolder in the same view unless that folder has an "always open in ____ View" setting.

Calendar List View on iPad

On my iPhone I have list view permanently turned on, so I have a rolling daily simple list of events to easily scroll through and manage my daily activities.
On my iPad, which you would think would have an even BETTER calendar view, not so much...I can GET list view turned on by selecting the magnifying glass, but you wind up with this little scrolling area the runs down the upper right hand corner of the screen. The rest of the screen is wasted with any of four other useless views.
I've looked into calendar app alternatives and downloaded/purchased a few but nothing seems to provide that simple rolling list of daily events like my iPhone, in something that makes use out of a decent portion of the iPad's screen. And is it my imagination or did this list view used to work, or work better, before one of the recent iOS upgrades? I see some chatter about this but I'm not sure.
Bottom line - how do I get a decent sized list view rolling calendar of events for the iPad, much the same as my Calendar is setup on my iPhone?

The LAST place that I would ever have expected a solution to these issues?
MIcrosoft. Yes, Microsoft, I kid you not.
The new Microsoft for Outlook iOS app has a Calendar "agenda" layout for iPad that's BETTER than the agenda view that comes with the stock iOS Calendar app on the iPhone. The overall look and feel of Outlook for iOS is just fantastic. They're still working through a few very minor tweaks but get this - you can actually contact them directly, through the app, lodge complaints, make suggestions, etc. and they will get back to you, I'm talking actual tech support resources, via messaging within the app, for real, in less than a day.
MIcrosoft. Go figure.

How to get into /Expanded/ List View

I have a bunch of metadata that I have turned on for Expanded List View and I am in Browser View with the little "List" icon checked (I guess this is next to "grid view") but I can't seem to find a pulldown or tab or checkbox that lets me know I am in expanded view. Since I am not seeing the data I checked I am thinking I missed this somewhere.
TIA

When you are in Expanded View, the menu option that shows is "Switch to Basic View".
When you are in Basic View, the menu option that shows is "Switch to Expanded View".
It's not a deft bit of UI design, but it is foolproof.
Here -- from the User Manual.
To switch to the expanded metadata overlay view in the Browser in filmstrip view, grid view, and list view
Do one of the following:
Choose View > Metadata Display, then choose Switch to Expanded View from the Browser section of the submenu (or press Shift-U).
In the tool strip, choose Switch to Expanded View from the Browser section of the Metadata Overlays pop-up menu.
Note: Switching to the expanded view increases the number of columns displayed in list view.
To switch to the basic metadata overlay view in the Browser in filmstrip view, grid view, and list view
Do one of the following:
Choose View > Metadata Display, then choose Switch to Basic View from the Browser section of the submenu (or press Shift-U).
In the tool strip, choose Switch to Basic View from the Browser section of the Metadata Overlays pop-up menu.
Note: Switching to the basic view decreases the number of columns displayed in list view.

List View in the event browser stopped working.

Recently I was using Final Cut pro X when it crashed, when I re-opened the application I found that List View in my event browser no longer displayed any content, filmstrip view appears to work but I had gotten quite fond of list view.
Is there a way to get it running again? I've already tried Restarting, shutting down and booting up again, taking out my external hard disk before opening FCPX then putting it back in again..

We have the same FCP X issue. Filmstrip view works, switch to List view and it shows nothing. We even tried closing in List view, then reopening, it reopens in Filmstrip. We have rebooted as well, with no effect. Anyone find a work around?

List view shows duplicate (or blank) places in the same list

When I look at the Places List view, and select "Hawaii" in column two, column three gives me the following list:
[blank]
[blank]
Kauai
Kauai
Maui
Oahu
One of those [blank] ones contains kauai places in column 4. The other one contains big island places in island 4. So, Kauai places are listed in 3 separate sections. One of these Kauai sections clearly lists the places that I have named manually. The [blank] kauai one lists 4 different auto-named towns in kauai, containing mostly photos from my iphone. And the third one lists auto-named places. Some of the same place names are listed in more than one of these sections. This duplication of names also occurs in column 4 as well, where the names of the places were autonamed by iphoto.
This duplication in column 3 and 4 is incredibly annoying. I'm aware that I could retag all of my photos so that all of them fall under a manually named place, but that sorta defeats the whole purpose of the gps tags, and it results in all the locations in one event becoming homogenized.
How can I fix this?

Do you have a backup copy of your iPhoto Library made just prior to upgrading to 10.10.3 and Photos? If so do the following:
1 - restore it
2 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down
3 - select the library and close iPhoto
4 - relaunch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and apply the following two first aid processed to the library:
Option #1, Repair Library Permissions
Option #2, Rebuild Thumbnails
Option #4, Rebuild Library Database
5 - launch Photos with the Option key held down , select, open and convert the rebuild iPhoto library
6 - check to see if the blank thumbnails issue is resolved

Event List view in iCal?

I would love to have an Event List view in iCal like I do on the calendar on my iPhone. Is there such a thing? The particular reason for wanting it (this time) is that one of the calendars in the ON MY MAC list has a number in a oval to the right.
I believe this is trying to tell me that there is a new event that I need to do something about. Problem is, I don't know where to find it.

ecernek,
There is no event list option on iCal like the one on the iPhone.
That number means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification.

All day events in iCal on 3Gs w/ iOS 4.0.2 show up day early in List view

For some reasons, all day events on my Calendar (iCal synced via MobileMe) are showing up a day earlier on my iPhone, but only when I use List view. They appear fine when I use iCal on my MBP or iMac. This happens with all day events on my calendars and subscribed calendars (e.g., birthdays).
If I tap on an event in the Day or Month view, the correct date is listed. If I tap on it in the List view, the day before is listed as the date.
What in the heck is going wrong here?

I am having the same problem. I have tried different scenarios and it looks like its an issue with syncing from MobileMe. I thought I had it beat when I saw my preferences for in iCal were set to to start at 8AM and end at 6PM. I made it Midnight to Midnight but that did not fix it.
I am perplexed - has to be a bug!

Event list view in iCal3?

i went to the apple store to see iCal in 10.5. i still have 10.4 on my various computers between home and work. i was asking about how to view the list of events in a list window, like in iCal 2 in 10.4. in iCal2, i click on the small icon that looks like a bulleted list in the lower right side of the ical frame. it displays the list of events in cronological order. some of the other open source calendars (chandler, sunbird) have this display option also, which i find quite useful.
i am on the verge of buying 10.5, in part for some better calendar features, particularly the mail & iCal linking or maybe they call it data detectors in mail... however, i wanted to see more of the iCal features. i couldn't figure out how to get the list mode in iCal3 that i can get in iCal2. i asked a number of employees at the apple store. and no one could figure it out. the best they could do was get a search results window which looks similar to the list view in iCal 2, but no one could figure out how to just show all the events in that window as just a list, like iCal2.
does anyone know how to display a list of the events in iCal3 or if iCal3 can do a list mode like iCal2?
thanks-

I was just tring to figure this out myself. After about 45 mins of trying to make it work, and trying various searches, I gave up and came to the discussion forums. Lo-and-behold, I'm not the only one with this question. I suggest that we all provide some feedback to Apple on this :
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html
This is a feature that should really be put back in. The least that they could do is provide a search method for all events on a specific calendar.

Days missing from list view if no event entered in iCal

if i have no event entered on a particular day, the list view of iCal doesn't display the day. how can i still see the day in list view?

The List view reveals the day/days with an event scheduled only. If there isn't an event scheduled for a particular day, that day will not be shown when using List view.
The List view is a list of scheduled events only.

Why is ical on iPhone 5s missing old events only on list view??

i have the latest ios7 on my iphone 5s. i only noticed this recently that old events more than 1 year old are missing from ical once i am in list view (magnifying glass) but present on day/week/month view? On settings it is set to sync all events and events are present but not via list view. The reason this is annoying as month view is just dots which does not help if you have different coloured categories.
Its puzzling bth. With events showing when not in list view shows icloud is working but i don't get this?
thanks den

I am not witnessing any instability problems on my 5S. I would check with each of the developers to see if their apps are compatible with iOS8 before deciding this is a problem with your individual device or the iPhone all together.

Old All-Day events not showing in Calendar List View

Reviewing events in my Calendar on the iPhone and have noticed that All Day Events that are older than one year do not show in the "List" view
For example, I have all my holidays in a calendar called "Vacation". Month and Day view list holidays from earlier than today (09 Sept 2008) properly, however list view shows nothing. Timed events (e.g. day trips) in the same calendar show.
Similarly no Birthdays appear in the past. I can see a case for Birthdays being omitted in the past, but not other events (e.g. wanting to know exactly when you went to that all day wedding last summer)

I have this same exact problem. For me, past events that have a specific time associated with them show up in List view; however, past events that are all day events only show in List view once in a blue moon only. Apple support has been absolutely clueless about this issue. They just tell me it's weird and they have no explanation. It's unbelievably annoying though.
