Log and transfer will not see contents in p2 folders

This just started happening. Before log and transfer was working great now it won't see
any of the video shot to p2 cards in most of my folders. Every now and then it recognizes and imports actual images into Log and transfer but not from the folders I need. This is really becoming a hassle I now have to go to my slower computer with a older version of final cut 5.04 and transfer using the import function (which works fine) is there any reason why log and transfer won't recognize theses files?

I just started having this problem on my laptop. And it has nothing to do with Noise Industries, because I've never had it installed on my laptop.
Same thing, though, with AVCHD files. I shoot them, copy the entire card to an external drive, then L&T from there. Just stopped working. Even cards I've transferred in the past won't load into the L&T window anymore.
Reinstalled software last night and was working again. Came downstairs this morning to start in on another project, and no L&T anymore.
No new software installed or upgraded, it just stopped working.

  • Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air. In bootcamp i allocate the partition then i click install and bootcamp will not see the disk.

    Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (on my MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air via remote disk. In bootcamp (on my air) i allocate the partition, then i click install, and bootcamp will not see the disk from my macbook pro's drive. How do i get the bootcamp assistant running on my MB air to automatically find the disk in my macbook pro with the ISO image of windows 7? The remote disk on my air can find the cd but bootcamp will not begin installing it. Anyway to do this without buying the damned usb drive?

    I don't know first hand if you can use the Remote Disk option with Windows but as of 10.7.2 you can now use BCAssistant to make a bootable USB (thumb drive or external disk) W7 installer with the Boot Camp drivers installed also. Have you tried that yet?

  • Log and Transfer doesn't "see" my camera

    I just got back from an afternoon of recording the kids -- plug the camera into the computer, launch FCE and go to the log and transfer screen -- -and nothing. Panic now sets in. There seems to be nothing to be done, to get FCE to recognize the folder structure on my Canon Vixia FFS10 camera. What's up with that. (Why it needs a folder structure is strange to say the least)
    It's not like the .MTS files aren't there. there's about 6GB of content that I'm anxious to get started transcoding. Is there something i'm missing on the log and transfer screen? The No Name disk is on my desktop, and using finder I can see the MTS files -- why FCE can't is strange.
    Suggestions?

    I don't think I changed format on the SD card, although I can't be 100% sure, since I didn't format the card before today's shoot.
    What I ended up doing, is copying the MTS files from the card to a scratch drive, and convert them to AIC using Voltaic, which I'm guessing is all the log and transfer does anyway.
    Having done that I formatted the card, using the camera, then shot of a clip, and sure enough now the camera (which is no longer called no name, but rather called canon) is recognized by FCE and it looks like all is now working.
    Is there a way to sending feed back to apple for future versions. It still seems to me that Log and Transfer is a bit too particular, when it comes to AVCHD.

  • Final Cut Express Log and Transfer files not playing audio on another mac

    I recently purchased a new Mac Pro for video editing for work, and am having some issues with it. Previously i was working on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.4.11, on Final Cut Express 4.
    I used Log & Transfer to get the AVCHD videos from my Canon HF 11 onto my mac, and had no issues. Where my problems started was when I moved my video files to my new Mac Pro running OS 10.5.6. Now when I open those video files in either Quicktime or FCE, the VIDEO plays but _not the audio_. I thought maybe the video files were bad, but when I tried the original files on the new Mac, they still didn't work. I don't know if there's some codec that isn't on the new mac or if there's some other problem... I just know that my new amazing machine cannot play the files that my 3 year old one can. I'm not new to computers, but I'm not an Apple guru. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Well I can try trashing the files, but I can't log and transfer the files again, as it's months of footage that aren't on the camera anymore. But i did find something else out. The files that were recorded with the camera's built-in mic recording is fine and with sound, but the files that I used my wireless mic setup had no sound. I don't know why that is, because they worked fine on the MacBook Pro. I tried log and transferring a new clip on the Mac Pro wit;h footage using the wireless mic, and still no sound.

  • Log and transfer does not recognize footage. Please Help

    When i open the log and transfer window in FCP on my macbook it no longer recognizes the files from the Contents folder of a P2 card or the RED ONE files from the folder on my hard drive. last week however, everything was working fine.
    does this have something to do with the project settings or the RED plugins? any help is greatly appreciated. thanks.

    Have you changed your set up or software, or computer in any manner since last week?
    And did you trash your preferences and try that?

  • Not seeing content in mail folders

    I use default mail with a hotmail account.  I have folders but none of the messages appear when you click on a particular folder.  When I use my PC you can see info in the folders.

    I don't see any evidence of an iCloud account there - do you actually have an @icloud.com address? iCloud syncs only its own email, it has no relationship to any other service.
    However, if both your Mac and your iPhone are receiving, for example, Gmail, and you move a message on your Mac from the Gmail mailbos to a mailbox in the list under 'On My Mac' then this removes it from the GMail mailbox and as it's only on the Mac the iPhone cannot see it. In order to do what you want you have to create any new mailboxes on the GMail account itself and move the messages there.

  • My itunes and ipod will not see each other and claim they are on different accounts.  I only have one account

    I can't sync my ipod anylonger.  I have 2 nano's and 1 touch.  my itunes does not recognize them anymore.  Some of the songs on itunes are not on my ipod, and vice versa. I can download songs from itunes, but it does not allow me to log on anylonger.

    I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
    Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
    Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
    In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
    I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
    The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
    Thanks.

  • Did hard reset, now cannot load pictures and TX will not see Card

    I did a hard reset to clear get back to factory settings and give it to my husband when I got a new pda. But it lost a lot of its 'factory' programs. I can't get any photos/video on it, music and the card reader isn't working either. I'm not sure where to even begin. I changed the name back to mine and did a sync so that all my information went back on it by copying all of my back-up info from my back-up file (I'm now on Snow Leopard) to an old machine running Tiger and did a sync there, which should have restored it to the state it was in before the hard reset... all of the files were there... but still no photos or card. It acts like it sees the card, but it says there is 0 space available and it is a 1g card that is empty.
    Post relates to: Palm TX
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I resolved the issue. I re-installed the card reader. It would then 'see' the card, but still wouldn't let me write anything to it... Though the card was showing by the amount of data available that data was actually going onto the card, the palm still wasn't seeing it. I did not think to take the card out of the Palm when I did the hard reset and somehow the SD Card got corrupted or the partitions messed up. I could not reformat the card while in the Palm since the Palm was not able to recognize it at all. I took it out, used Disk Utilities and wiped the SD card, put it back in the Palm and was them able to reformat the card. It has worked fine after that.

  • Log and transfer not recognizing my p2 cards

    I have been off my computer for a few weeks and I just went to upload data from my p2 cards and log and transfer will not recognize them. I copied the card contents with the text docs into folders on my desktop to do the transfer and the Log and Transfer still did not work.
    Last time I had problems with this was a quicktime update, I have updated since and it worked fine until now. does anyone have any experience with this problem or have I just messed something up? I am running FCP 6.0.4.

    Do you have FX Factory installed? Version 1 and 2...and the demos...interfere with import. Either remove it or update to 2.0.1 and that will fix it.

  • Log and transfer debauchery!

    At first, log and transfer just crashed FCP on my MacBook Pro (just purchased this week). Then I was able to at least keep FCP up but log and transfer would not "see" any AVCHD footage I had on the computer. Then, log and transfer could see the footage but when I tried to add it to the queue, the clip render never started, became idle...then a red exclamation point appear where the status arrows circle around.
    I have uninstalled FCP several times using FCP Remover and then reinstalled. Either I am not installing correctly or my software is bunk! I installed my original FCP (4) and then the upgrade to Studio 2 each time. Am I missing something obvious?!?
    Thanks in advance!

    I installed my original FCP (4) and then the upgrade to Studio 2 each time. Am I missing something obvious?!?
    You don't need to do that. Just install the upgrade and enter the serial # that came with it. It will then prompt you to enter the serial from the full retail copy of FCP 4.
    Then, log and transfer could see the footage but when I tried to add it to the queue, the clip render never started,
    Is the directory structure of the AVCHD card completely intact or do you just have the folder with the clips in it? You need that full directory structure. In other words, the entire contents of the card.

  • Can't Import Sony AVCHD Using Log and Transfer

    HI
    I have been importing AVCHD footage from all kinds of cameras, mainly Panasonics for over 4 years now using Final Cut Pro 7.  I just got a new Sony NEX-EA50 but when I try to import the footage using Log and Transfer, it does not show up.  When I try to drop the card folder into the window I get the ""PRIVATE" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media." message.
      The only way I can import the footage is using Toast, but that is a pain in the *** because it is a hassle to rename and scan the clips before I import. 
    Does anybody know whats going on?  Did Sony purposely change their file directory system so it couldn't be read by FCP? 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
        What framerate did you shoot ?
    Log and Transfer will not recognise non standard frame rates such as 50 fps or 60fps. Toast, Clipwrap etc is an option but there is another. If you have the Panasonic AVCCAM importer Quicktime plug in, it will allow you to convert to Pro Res through Mpeg Streamclip or Compressor.
    DM
    Hang on, are you pointing log and transfer at the ROOT folder and not the folders inside.

  • Log and Transfer in Background causing big problems

    I don't know if you are supposed to be able to have Log and Transfer importing in the background while you edit, but it seems to allow me to do this, but I have found a VERY BAD side effect.
    Log and Transfer goes about it's business importing, but if I click around in the the bin, playback other files that are already imported, etc.  Log and Transfer will not fully import the clips it is working on.  BUT, instead of giving me ANY error, it simply thinks it did it's job.  The end results is a clip in my bin that is maybe 10 seconds long and the matching clip on the SD card is 5 minutes!  No error messages anywhere.
    At first I thought I had accidently stopped recording on a good number of my clips.  I was freaking out.  Thankfully I found that the clip on the SD card was the full 5 minutes long.  When I reimported it (without doing anything in FCP at the same time) the full clip came in.  (THANKFULLY I had a disk image of the SD card and wasn't just relying on my backup for the FCP files post import).
    Now I just make sure not to do anything in FCP while it's importing from Log and Transfer, but it seem like quite a dicey situation that could get people in a log of trouble.

    Me too.  I've learned the lesson.  But I thought FCP used to NOT allow this.  It would beep and not let me do anything else.
    I'm sad they let you do it, because someone can do it without realizing importing is still going on and mess things up and not realize it until down the road in the edit and be screwed.

  • Log and Transfer not working after reformatting computers

    I have taught with FCP for years.  This year, tech services reformatted my computers.  Since they were formatted, Log and Transfer does not work with my Sony Handycam.  A couple computers that have not been reformatted still Log and Transfer with no problems.  The only difference I can find is that the newly formatted computers are running OSX 10.6.8.  The computers that still Log and Transfer with no problems are running OSX 10.5.8. 
    I don't know if that is the problem, but would appreciate some direction here.

    To cut unwanted parts off MTS files losslessly, try final mate for mac. That is the tool to help cut or trim MTS and still export MTS without any quality loss. Look through this blog to know how to make it done.

  • Efficient way get FCE4 Log and Transfer to read .mts files stored on drive?

    Hi All
    I've searched the FCE discussion forum and not found an answer verified by more than one user to this question: What is an efficient way to get FCE4 (via the Log and Transfer window) to see .mts files from an AVCHD camera stored on a drive (NOT via the camera -- directly from the drive)?
    I am trying to plan the most space-efficient system possible for storing un-transcoded .mts files from a Panasonic AG-HMC151 on a harddrive so that I can easily ingest them into FCE4. I am shooting a long project and I want to be able to look at .mts files so that I can decide which ones to transcode to AIC for the edit.
    Since FCE4 cannot see .mts files unless they have their metadata wrapper the question is really 'how do I most efficiently transfer .mts files from the camera to a storage harddrive with their metadata wrappers so that FCE4 can see them via the log and transfer window?'
    Nick Holmes, in a reply in this thread
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10423384&#10423384
    gives 2 options: Use the Disk Utility to make a disk image of the whole SD card, or copy the whole contents of the card to a folder. He says he prefers the first option because it makes sure everything on the card is copied.
    a) Have other FCE users done this successfully and been able to read the .mts files via Log and Transfer?
    In a response to this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10257620&#10257620
    wallybarthman gives a method for getting Log and Transfer to see .mts files that have been stored on a harddrive without their metadata wrappers by using Toast 9 or 10.
    b) Have any other FCE4 users used this method? Does it work well?
    c) Why is FCE4 unable to see .mts files without their metadata wrappers in the Log and Transfer window? Is it just a matter of writing a few lines of code?
    d) Is there an archiving / library app. on the market that would allow one to file / name / tag many .mts clips and view them prior to transcoding into space-hungry AIC files in FCE?
    Any/all help would be most gratefully received!

    I have saved the complete file structure on DVD as a backup, but have not needed to open them yet. But I will add this. As I understand the options with Toast you are infact converting the video to AIC or something like it. I haven't looked into it myself, but I can't imagine the extra files are that large, but maybe there are significant, I don't know. The transcoded files are huge in comparison to the AVCHD file.
    A new player on the scene for AVCHD is Clipwrap 2.0. As I understand this product. It rewraps the AVCHD into a wrapper the Quicktime can open and play. This is with the MTS files only, the rest of the file structure is not needed. The rewrap is much faster that the transcode to AIC. So you have the added benefit of being able to play the files as well as not storing the extra files. The 2.0 version (which is for AVCHD) was just recently released. I haven't tried it and don't personally know of anyone who has. You might want to try this, there is a trial version as I recall.

  • Weird Log and Transfer warning

    So I'm teaching a class and the students have their AVCHD camcorders connected and we're ingesting using Log and Transfer. All the clips appear in the window and it's working fine. But every few minutes, all the students get a warning dialogue that says:
    ".fn contains unsupported material or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media."
    All they have to do is dismiss the warning and keep working. But then it will come up again in a few minutes.
    Anyone know what this means?
    Thanks very much.

    I'd try and copy the Hard disk contents to the computer before log and transfer.  There may be some material on the camera hard disk that's not part of what log and transfer is looking for and when log and transfer sees those elements, it gives you that warning.  Do you want to open the camera's hard disk on the mac describe the folder structure.  It's possible you need to navigate to the appropriate folder and mount that in the log and transfer window, not the entire camera hard drive.

Maybe you are looking for
