Lost ability to move clips using keyboard -and fix

So suddenly the other day, I could no longer move clips in a timeline using the keyboard. I would select a clip in the timeline and hit (for example) +40 to move the clip down the timeline 40 frames. Didn't matter whether I used the numeric keypad or the keys on the main part of the keyboard. Didn't get any error message or beep. When I hit the plus (or minus key) the little move window would open, I would enter numbers and hit either enter or return. And nothing would happen. I could click and drag on a clip in the timeline without any problems.
I tried deleting preferences but it didn't help.
Solution: created new sequence, and copied the contents of the problem sequence to the new sequence and problem solved.

Thanks for the post Michael.
I'm curious, you didn't by any chance move up to QT 7.6 did you?

...how to control movie clips using mause scroller...?

Hi Ldavinci, I have noticed your posts on that particular
site before. Just chiming in here... don't be afraid of Flash Help
menu. There's a wealth of information there and I've found it much
faster than waiting for a response from the forum. Then if it still
doesn't make sense, at least you have a basic idea of specifics to
ask.
If you search for mouse wheel, you'll see an example under
the Actionscript 2.0 Language Reference on this topic. That said,
here's the example:

Sharepoint 2013 copy/move operation using Content and Structure fails

Hi,
We had a recent upgrade from SP2010 to SP2013 environment. After the migration, we realized that the
copy/move operations using Manage content and structure(sitemanager.aspx) is not working as expected, neither does this give any error nor is it stuck. In fact if I check the content and structure log I find the message as
succeeded but file/item is not copied to the target.
The strange thing is that if I am performing this operation with Full Control permission level it
does not work but if I do the operation as Site collection admin it works without problem. I know if sub-sites are to moved then one should be site col admin but in this case I am trying to move just documents or pages.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Vineet,
According to your description, my understanding is that copy/move operation using Content and Structure cannot work in SharePoint.
I recommend to check if there are any custom fields in the source list/library and target list/library. If yes, delete the custom fields to see if the issue still occurs.
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/56d803d7-8573-4c29-9f6b-c63023941f44/manage-content-and-structure-cannot-move-or-copy-items?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
To copy or move files/items between sites, we need to have
appropriate permissions on both sites.
I recommend to check if the user has full control on both sites.
Best regards.

Flash player on the new mac sarafi can't use keyboard and event listener

flash player on the new mac sarafi can't use keyboard and event listener
cn:英文有些差不好意思，附上中文说明：在flash player web 开发时，我在最新版本的sarafi上，目前出现不能响应键盘事件bug,为了验证是不是我本地问题，我也用在多款别的网页游戏上进行测试，全有这个bug，另外，有时还有那个fp弹出本地缓存提示设置窗口也点不了“允许或拒绝“那些按钮

Now after 5 weeks, you have always not resolved this very important and urgent issue. It seems that Adobe has realy abandonned the actionscript / flash player projects. Why not simply discontinue flash player on desktops too ? Or even better remove or block "automaticaly" all flash players with the final update. That could create a serious issue on the Internet for few weeks but at least that will be honorable end like a Samurai's Seppuku...

Flash html5 - How can i make an internal movie clip slow down and stop when it get to a certain frame?

I am creating an automotive braking system using flash and have a wheel turning. I want the wheel to slow down and stop after the brake pedal is pushed at a certain frame. I know I could do this with frame by frame animation but was hoping there was a short cut - javascript?? If not the slowing down portion then is there code for just making the internal movie clip (wheel turning) to stop when it gets to a frame.? Thanks

you can use the ticker class to create a loop that you use to control the wheel's rotation or frame, TweenJS v0.6.0 API Documentation : Ticker

How do I create a play button for movie clip using AS3

Hello.
Bit new to this and have been searching the adobe forums and google. I am trying to create a button that will play an imported MovieClip.
I have a movie clip that I've imported into it's own layer (Layer1) Frame 1. I've given the MovieClip an instance name of foundationMovie.
I've created a button and have that on its own layer(Layer2) above layer1, it is also in Frame 1.
I've added a
stop (); action to layer2
The video is not set to autoplay.
I want the video to start playing when the viewer clicks the button. I know I've got to put some kind of event listener using AS3 in my timeline somewhere.
I've found some code and I've been trying to work with it. I'm sure I've mutilated it beyond usability but this is what I've got.
stop ();
player.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,play);
function play(event:MouseEvent)
gotoAndPlay("foundationMovie");
If someone could point me the right direction or help me with my code I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

First, you need to clear up what you are working with... a movieclip and a video are usually entirely different things.
Next, your code may get you started on your way with some changes. You shouldn't use "play" as a function name due to there already being a play() method/function in Flash.
If the movieclip is a movieclip and has an instance name of "foundationMovie", and your button has an instance name of "player" then the following adjusted code would normally work...
stop ();
player.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playMovie);
function playMovie(event:MouseEvent)
foundationMovie.play();

Is there a way to import clips from AVCHD folders I have copied from my camcorder to my hard disk? With FCE I could import these clips using log and transfer.

In FCP-X is there a way to import AVCHD clips from an AVCHD file folder I have copied from my Canon hard disk camcorder to my iMac hard disk? With FCE I used log and transfer with no problem; but, FCP-X doesn't import them. It will import AIC files that have been created in FCE from the original AVCHD files. If FCP-X will not import these files directly from the copied AVCHD folder, is there a workaround using other software to convert the files? For example, Compressor? (Canon does not provide any AVCHD conversion software for OSX).

Hi jphil and Tom
I have exactly the same problem but the answer you (Tom) provided did not help in my case. Trying to "Import ->From Camera" and pointing to the AVCHD folder yields the error message: "(Folder) contains unsupported files or has invalid directory structure."
Folder structure is
AVCHD
     BDMV
          CLIPINF
               .CPI files
          Index.bdm
          Movieobj.bdm
          PLAYLIST
               .MPL file
          STREAM
               .MTS files
AVF_INFO
     3 files (.bnp, .inp, .int)
DCIM
     101MSDCF
          empty
     MODELCFG.IND (file)
My question is: Is that not a "camera archive" of the type you talked about in the thread? Is it on principle not possible to import the files in that format/directory structure? If not, since the shots were not taken by myself, what should I ask the guy who shot the movies to give me to be able to work with them in FC?
I work with a brand new Final Cut Pro X 10.0.4 (still very clumsy with it) on an iMac 11,3 with MacOS 10.6.8.
I downloaded the latest version of codec updates from the Apple support site but no difference.
Thank you in advance

Formats for movie clip used in PSE 4 slide show

Still finding it difficult to find documentation of what formats are supported for using digital camera movie clips in PSE 4 slide show.
The movie file from my Canon camera is 640 x 480, 30 fps Motion JPEG and has a .AVI extension. I am able to use it "as is" in a PSE 4 slide show. However, sometimes I need to trim the movie clip in Windows Movie Maker 2 in order to keep only the best part.
My question is what parameters can I specify to save my movie clip in Movie Maker 2 so that I can use it as a movie clip in a Photoshop Elements 4 slide show that will be saved as a WMV file?

Karin Sue,
>Also, are the projects saved in a folder somewhere, or only as part of the Catalog?"
The definition of the "project", which is the "Creation" in Organizer terms is saved only in the Catalog.
>If you publish your creation as a pdf or wmv they are saved in the folder you designate. Once published, I don't believe there is any way to edit. If you save the creation, you can go back and edit and republish if you like.
Yes, the WMV or PDF file is saved in the folder that you designate. You are correct that if you save the Creation, you can go back and re-edit. When you Save the Creation gets a thumbnail within the Organizer photo well and you can click on the thumbnail to go back in to the Creation process make modifications and save a new WMV or PDF file.
Note: that the Save window documents that the PDF choice does not support some options such as Pan and zoom, videos, and certain transitiions.

Attach movie clips using seperate functions

I'm having a little trouble with the following code. I'm
calling two functions: init() and inittwo() to attach some movie
clips to the stage. If I comment one of them out, the other works
fine and the movement is okay. But as it is, only the "cloud" movie
clips are being attached. I need for the clips in the "dreamarray"
to be attached, and then for the "clouds" to be attached with a
second function. I'm probably not going about this the right way,
but I could sure use some help!
It would also be cool if I could attach the dreams at set "x"
values instead of random distribution. I'm not sure how to set a
seperate x value for each item in the array being attached.
var numClouds:Number = 10;
var fl:Number = 250;

Hi Ive just taken a very quick look at your code and Ive
noticed at least one or two mistakes.
you are calling:
init();
inittwo();
before the actual functions have been declared.
Flash works from top to bottom when actioning code so by
calling:
init();
inittwo();
bofore the function has been declared and this will do
nothing as it cannot find the functions to call as they have been
declared AFTER the function calls.
The best thing to do is put any calls right at the bottom and
then you will know everything is ready to be triggered.

How do i mute the sound in a movie clip using action script?

assuming my movie clip is named "movie"

You should use SoundTranfrom object and soundTransform property of your movieClip.
At first you have to instantiate soundTransform object and assign value of 1 to it's volume property:
var soundTr:SoundTransform = new SoundTransform();
soundTr.volume = 1;
Than a simple toggle function, which changes volume property of soundTr and assigns the object soundTr to your movie's soundTransform property.
function toggleMute():void
    if(soundTr.volume == 1)
        soundTr.volume = 0;
    }else{
        soundTr.volume = 1;
    movie.soundTransform = soundTr;

Turning off audio while shuttling through clips using keyboard buttons

Is there a way to turn off the audio while shuttling through clips when using either the J, K, and L buttons or the left and right arrow keys? I have audio skimming turned off but this only turns off the audio while skimming with the mouse, and not using the keyboard buttons above when you want to make a more precise edit.
Many thanks for your help!!

Hi Russ,
Thank you for replying. You're correct that keyboard shorcut toggles the audio skimming on & off, but if it's off I'm still hearing audio while I shuttle through clips using the keyboard buttons J & L or using the Left & Right arrow keys. I would think that would turn off the audio for those functions too and not just skimming with the mouse.
Do you know of a solution?
Thanks,
Reid

Cannot use Keyboard and touchpad at the same time? Twist

Hi,
I have the lenovo twist with the i7 processor and a 500GB hard drive (8GB ram). I have noticed that when using the keyboard, you cannot use the touchpad. Although you can use the trackpoint? I know this is a minor issue but can it be updated to fix?

Hi, Kyleosipad
You should be able to do this; it just requires the changing of a setting. If you navigate to Control Panel ► Mouse ► UltraNav ►Settings ► Smart Check Notices ► PalmCheck, you can adjust the PalmCheck sensitivity. PalmCheck is a feature that helps reduce misclicks and touches of the TrackPad. If you uncheck the box that says Prioritize for keyboard and touch input, and click Apply, then you should be able to type and use the TrackPad simultaneously.
Best,
Adam
Yes, that's true - you can disable the "Prioritize for keyboard and touch input," but then you lose Palm Check ENTIRELY even though it's still "set" to its default position. Mine is set one setting from the red setting, so the Palm Check should be active and working as normal. However, when I start typing it goes nuts and my mouse pointer jumps all over the place. The only way I can get it to behave is to again enable "Prioritize for keyboard and touch input."
Can you confirm this?

OS10.5.8's lost ability to scroll horizontally using scroll wheel & shift key.

I wonder whether somebody can tell me how I can reinstate my OS10.5.8's ability to scroll horizontally using my mouse's scroll wheel and the shift key.

Dear Japamac,
Thanks for this:
> Repair the hard drive using Disk Utility?
My Disk Utility says there are no errors.
> Reset the PRAM?
In a few days' time I'm due to get help at the Genius Bar of an Apple shop. I'll ask the technician about PRAM.
> The function wasn't removed in 10.5.8.......
I gather that your OS10.5.8 with PowerPC allows you to scroll horizontally with your mouse's scroll wheel and the shift key.
As I implied in my words "reinstate my OS10.5.8's ability", I was able to use the horizontal-scroll-with-wheel-and-shift trick for a long time after I installed OS10.5.8 (that was in the middle of 2009).
I'll see whether the Genius Bar can reinstate the trick for me.
Thanks for your ideas, Japamac.
