Migrating media browser favorites from CC to 2014

Hi all,
Is there a way to "import" my media browser favorites as I upgrade to 2014?
I am still digging in the Library, preferences and common areas, but have not found a file specifically called media browser favorites or something similar.
I can rebuild, but now that you've given me favorites I have dozens...
Thanks,
Dan

From a quick test I did, the MB favorites are saved to the app preferences. That means that you should be able to migrate your prefs from CC to CC2014 through Sync Settings. I have no experience doing this, but I gather that in order for Sync Settings to migrate settings from an earlier version, you basically need to launch CC2014 in a state where no preferences for that version exist yet. If you've already been running CC2014, that would necessitate clearing the preferences. Also, I think, you had to enable the Sync Settings feature in CC so that the prefs from that version are stored in your Creative Cloud account, but honestly I'm not positive about that part.
To learn more, please consult the Migrate Sync Settings section here.

IMovie audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !

iMovie 11 audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !
I have created a project where I have a montage of photos and video clips edited together with music under. Some audio portions of the video files are being muted in some areas and those portions are being heard in another part of the project. This is not for all video clips only certain ones.
The project plays fine in the timeline, but when I render the project thru iTunes or Media Browser, this is when the project goes corrupt.
I tried detaching the Audio from the video clips and this somewhat worked, but the original problem still exists with certain audio still being heard where it's not supposed to be.

I have a fix - or rather, a workaround.
WARNING: It is lengthy, but still far better than starting a new project from scratch.
I had this same issue and none of my transitions/clips were at custom speeds, nor did I have anything else weird going on. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do within iMovie to fix this, at least there wasn't for me. iMovie is BY FAR the buggiest software I have ever used and if you haven't already spent hours slaving away on a project, you are so much better off using just about anything else to edit your video.
...But let's assume you have already spent many hours working on your project and you don't want to start all over. Well then, you have at least one option.
It's a pain in the neck, but it's infinitely better than restarting your project from scratch.
This will require:
A software called Soundflower (which is free) and some kind of audio editing software (I use Logic, but really any should work).
1.) You're going to need to export your video with the messed up audio. Typically if you're audio is messing up, you're video is at least usually working just fine (at least it always does for me).
2.) You're going to need to open that video in your audio software and import only the audio. If your software doesn't give you this option, then you're going to need to record the audio from your video using the audio software and Soundflower. You can find tutorials on how to do this, but it's honestly pretty straightforward once you start playing around with you Mac's audio I/O settings. Remember to have your computer's volume all the way up when doing this.
3.) Watch/listen to your video and make notes of where the audio errors occur. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND writing down times too, as they will be extremely helpful later.
4.) Now were going to rip some working audio from the iMovie project itself. Go back into your iMovie project and only play back audio while in the edit window for this step. Do NOT play your project back in full screen.
This part is key: if you try to play back your project from the beginning the audio will usually still mess up. So, what you're gonna have to do is go back on your edit window timeline right before these errors occur and play that specific clip back while recording this working audio with Soundflower and your audio software. Essentially we're only recording the parts of the audio where these errors occur, so try to do this in order if you can. Try to leave several seconds of audio in before the error - that way we can use it as reference when we construct our new audio track.
5.) Now in your audio software you should have your original error-filled audio track and the new clips that we just captured. This part can be painstaking if you're not familiar with audio editing softwares, but as you'll learn, it's really not that hard.
You're going to look at your original audio track and compare it to your new working audio clips. You should be able to notice where those new clips are supposed to go by looking at the identical (or close to identical) waveform shapes in your original audio track. The two should correspond with one another. If you don't understand what I mean right now, you will when you start playing around with the audio. This is why marking times is very important.
Take your new clips and split them up if you haven't already, that way you can drag them around and edit them separately from one another. Essentially your going to line these new clips up with original and then replace the original parts with new ones.
We need to get this as precise as possible, so start off by getting them as close as you can with your naked eye, and then use a zoom tool to zoom in as much as possible so that you can get them lined up PERFECTLY, or at least extremely close. In some softwares you can just drag these new clips on top of the old track, but most of the time you will need to actually cut out the old piece and replace it with the new one. In doing this, zoom in and make sure that you are NOT cutting out a bigger space than your new clip will fill - otherwise you will have small gaps in your audio.
VERY IMPORTANT: Also make sure that this new audio track starts at the EXACT SAME time as your original - otherwise your new audio will be out of sync.
I know this part can really suck if you're not used to audio editing, but at this point, there is little other choice.
6.) Once you are done with this, export your newly pieced together audio track.
7.) Now open iMovie and create a NEW project. Re-import the video that you exported earlier that has the messed up audio. This might take a while, so just be patient.
8.) Then right click the clip and select "Detach Audio". This will do just that - allowing you to edit the audio separately from the video. Now delete this audio.
9.) Now, import the new, perfect audio track that we just made and make sure that it starts at the start of the project. Make sure it's in sync and that everything works.
Now just export your new video with the working audio and you should be done. Since we have given iMovie the audio with no editing actually being done in iMovie, it does not have to generate its own audio now and you should have absolutely no errors now - unless there is some that you forgot to take out earlier.
YOU'RE FINALLY DONE!!!
I know this entire process *****, but if you're that far into your project, there is little else that you can do. Now you've learned your lesson:
DON'T USE IMOVIE EVER AGAIN.
I hope this helped!

Migration of the database from Microsoft SQL 2014 Express to Microsoft SQL 2012 Server

I posted a similar thread yesterday, and I realized that there was a serious typo.

Therefore, I made a decision to post another thread right now.
I am
writing to ask if there are any known issues when migration from MS SQL 2014 Express to MS SQL 2012 Server version. Are there any step-by-step instruction on how I can go about doing this?
Looking forward to your response. Thank you for your time.

Hello,
SQL Server 2012 setup program won’t allow you to perform a downgrade from SQL Server 2014 Express Edition. Backup/Restore
and Detach/Attach won’t help you either.
One option you have left is using SQL Server Import/Export Wizard as explained on the following article.

Hope this helps.

How to delete a shortcut favorite from the browser in the WORK Area

Hiho,
creating a shortcut favorite icon of a browser-website in the work area shows up a symbol to use this shortcut. In the private area I can delete this favorite-symbol by tapping longer on the icon an a trashcan shows up, so I can delete the icon (and the browser favorite from the private area). Not so in the work (buisiness) part of the BlackBerry, there is no possibility to delete this icon. I can't find a policy on the BES10 server or thomething on the Z10, any ideas how i can remove the icon?
Greetings... Ifrani

Hi Ifrani!
I´ve the same problem on my Z10!

Strange (arabic) font in Media browser for Aperture

Since a couple of days the media browser (available from iWork applications) shows strange (arabic) description of some of the standard folders of aperture.
I'm not aware of having changed anything or installed font managing software.
Any ideas for help?

Is it the same in all iWorks apps, or only one of them?
I checked, the corrupted text should read: Projects, Photos, Faces, Places.
And if you get the same corruption for all languages (german, english), then probably not the localization strings are wrong, but the framework that tries to access the strings. But I am not sure about where this framework resides, whether it is included in the System Library, the Media Browser, or inside Aperture.
It would be good to know, if other iApps that use the Media Browser have the same problem. Do you have Garageband or iWeb and could try to access Aperture from those ? And could you take some pictures with Photo Booth to see, if you can access these from Keynote or Pages?
And to exclude any wrong preference setting in your user library, try to use the Media Browser with Aperture from a different account.
And to exclude problems from a corrupted Aperture Library create a new Aperture Library with a few simple images and see ift the problem persists.
If the wrong strings occur only with Aperture I would reinstall Aperture.
If the problem occurs independent of all this I would recommend to reinstall the system.

When dragging in folder from media browser, some clips missing?

I've noticed a strange problem where if I drag a folder with video clips in from the media browser, not all of the clips will make it into the project all of the time.
Whereas if I open up that folder and select all the media files individually, they all make it into the project.
There doesn't seem to be any consistency that I can see when I drag in a folder and not all the files therein make it into the project. Has anyone ever seen this behavior before? This must be a bug.
Currently using Premiere Pro CC 2014 - 2014.0.1 on a Mac Pro (Mid 2010)

Actually - technically all of these clips are in the project. See I have a lot of unlogged clips in my project. I'm having another editor log the clips on a different computer, then I'm bringing the logged clips back into the project, and then just double checking the file count of the original folder and the file count of the new folder to see that they match up.
Does this shed any more light? The fact it's not consistent is what is weird. Is it possible maybe the clips that are already in a project and in a sequence somewhere don't get imported?
Any thoughts on how I can make the process smoother given the work flow? Thanks.

No iphoto library in Media Browser after migrating to new Mac

Hi,
I transfered from my alu mbp15" ( MacOS 10.5.7 ilife 08) to a new uni-body mbp13"(MacOS 10.5.7 ilife 09) via timemachine. Everything is fine except the media browser. All photos are there in the iphoto but i just can see those photos from the media browser.
I have followed instructions in
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1042
iLife '08 and later: Some iLife applications will not open after an OS reinstall or migration

iLife: Cannot See iPhoto Files in Other iLife Applications
but did not work
thanks,

HI,
Try repairing disk permissions. Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

ITunes missing from Media Browser -- "open itunes to populate list"

I am on a MacBook Pro 10.7.3 running GarageBand '11 6.0.4 and all of the sudden no tracks will display under Audio in the Media Browser (Photos and Movies still appear). No tracks from either iTunes or GB show up. This is confusing as I have been using GB to make podcast/music mixes for more than 5 years and I haven't changed any settings or done anything different, but now I get the message "open itunes to populate list" or "To see GB songs here, open GB to edit and save your music."
Also, for quite some time I have been unable to go the alternative route of dragging tracks directly from iTunes and dropping them on to the timeline in GB -- that used to work, but mysteriously stopped, so I am dependent on the Media Browser for importing music.
I read thru the forums and tried the advice given to someone this was happening to in Final Cut -- recreating iTunes .xml file. Did that, still no tracks display.
Other advice says to reinstall GB or iLife altogether -- I hope to avoid this, but if I need to go this route, how do I reinstall GB w/o a disk? Can I do it through App Store and will it recognize that I have already purchased it?
I am dying to be able to get back in to my music mix making in GB, so thanks in advance.

Browse in Bridge from Photoshop CC 2014 fails to open Bridge and wants to install new version

Hey community! I found a few similar posts, but couldn't find much of a resolution.
Last night I was working in PS CC 2014 and all was well. Used Browse from Bridge in PS. Everything is working fine all night long. Get up this morning, return to work, click browse in Bridge, and Creative Cloud desktop client pops up and says something about installing a new version of Bridge and will get rid of my old version. The first time I just though it was an update, so I said sure, install the new version. Then, CC wanted to update a few other apps (PS being one of them), so I closed down everything, and let it update everything while I got a cup of coffee. Came back and it looked like everything was finished updating. So I went back to work. Same thing happens again when I click browse in Bridge. I tried going directly to Bridge's launch icon and THAT at least opened the application. It was still open to the same folder I had been using the night before. I double-clicked on the PSD I was supposed to be working on, and then Illustrator pops up and is trying to open the PSD.
***Ok, so I fixed the association problem with Illustrator trying to open the PSD. I uninstalled my older version of PS CC last night after I was done working, which apparently broke the "file associations" in Windows. I just had to go tell Windows to open PSD files with PS CC 2014 (even though 2014 has been installed since it's release and that's all I've been using)***
Still can't get around the Browse in Bridge issue. It is not a real big deal TO ME where I click to open Bridge, but it does seem like a bug that needs fixing.
Thanks!

I have the same issue when trying to Browse in Bridge from Photoshop CC 2014. When I click "Browse in Bridge" in Photoshop CC 2014, the Creative Cloud desktop client window opens up and asks "Are you sure you want to install this version of Bridge"?
Like you, I also thought it was an update so I clicked' "Yes, install this version" option.
Bridge will launch from the dock icon I have set up, but not from within Photoshop CC 2014.
Any solutions to this bug anyone?

GB 08-Importing mp3 file from media browser---does this affect source file?

Hello again,
Another question...
I imported an mp3 from my iTunes folder into GB (to jam over). I did this via the media browser, and it came in fine. I next wanted to create a looped rhythm segment from that file to jam over. I know how to do this, and then add it as a loop to the library. However, does this alter the source file at all (in the iTunes folder)? Do I need to make a copy of this in the GB folder first before I start splicing? I think I read that GB will not alter files, just "regions" but I wanted to make sure.
On a related note, does GB point to a location for the source file (even if it's been spliced)? So if I moved that iTunes folder would it be a problem?
Thanks!

However, does this alter the source file at all
no
does GB point to a location for the source file (even if it's been spliced)?
yes, and no. originally, yes, but once saved as a loop, that little clip is saved as it's own file to your lib
So if I moved that iTunes folder would it be a problem?
same as above. it will in the first case, won't in the second

HT4859 Last time I synced my IPad with my PC it migrated all my "Favorites" (about 100 folders) to the ICloud. I have searched and so far been unable to find out how to recover my "Favorites" list from the ICloud back to my PC. Any advice? Many thanks.

Hi, Last time I synced my IPad with my PC, it (unknown to me) migrated all my PC "Favorites" (about 100 folders) to the ICloud.
I have searched and so far been unable to find out how to recover my "Favorites" from the ICloud back to my PC. Any advice would
be appreciated. Thank you.

What did you do to get them synced to the Cloud. Would that procedure help me get my favorites synced to my iPad2?

I moved a iMovie video from a macPro to an IMac. In iMovie the option to export the video to media browser is greyed out, but the video is not listed on iDVD media. How can I get iDVD to find it or find a way to re-export it to media browser?

I moved an iMovie from a MacPro to an iMac. In the iMovie share option Media browser is greyed out (It was previously shared to the Media b
rowser on the MacPro). The video is not listed in the iDVD media list. How do I get it listed in iDVD or find a way to re-export it?

Did you transfer a Quicktime movie files from the Mac Pro to your iMac? If so make sure the video plays correctly in Quicktime Player. If it does you can put it in your Movies folder and from there drag it into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones. It doesn't have to come from iMovie. You can just drag and drop into iDVD.

How do I send only the sound track from iMovie to Media browser?

I need some wild sound for an iMovie 09 project I'm working on in Garageband (working on the soundtrack). I want to take some wild sound from a clip in iMovie and export it to the media browser so that I can use it in the project in Garageband. I detached the audio on the clip in iMovie and tried deleting the video, but it deletes the detached sound as well.
Any tips, tricks, or solutions on sending just the sound from iMovie to the media browser would be much appreicated.
thanks

With the project open, from iMovie's menu select "Share > Export using QuickTime". For the Export option select "Sound to AIFF". Give it a name and select your Save location. As far as I know, you can't save to the Media Browser as this is contained in the project's package contents folder. So save it to a convenient location (such as your Desktop) and navigate to this from GarageBand. It's probably best if you firstly move the file to, say, your Music folder or iTunes before using it in GarageBand. Otherwise, the links may be lost if you later move it from the Desktop (whereas you are less likely to move it from Music or iTunes).

Folder favorite in Media Browser?

I looked in the help guide with no luck.
In Premiere Pro CS6 is it possible to make a folder your favorite in the Media Browser panel so that you can access to it quickly?
I see there is some kind of history of the different locations you've been exploring on your hard drive with the drop down menu, but I cannot seem to be able to make a specific folder a favorite so that I can access quickly to its content.
Thank you

No, there isn't a way to make a "favorite" folder. Sounds like a good feature request though. Make one here: http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
