Missing Effects Tab

My Effects Tab went missing from my Browser Window. I can get it back by selecting Windows>Effects, but it superimposes over and hides the Video Tab. How do I get it to return to its proper place alongside the Video Tab?

Grab the tab and drag it over next to the project tab in the browser till it highlights the browser.

CS6 app missing effects tab - help

I've called customer service twice and they have not been helpful at all.
My problem is that one of my effects tabs is missing in Premier Pro CS6, "camera view". Do I need to reinstall the app software for CS6 and if so, will that mess up all the things I've been editing up to this point? My platform:
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)

This should clear things up. It is from the help file.

Effects Tab is missing

Hello,
In working on a project, I just realized that all of a sudden, my Effects tab is missing. I did click on the Window pull-down menu, and saw that 'Effects' is not checked - I tried doing so, and it actually opened it up a separate window, and it is still unchecked in the pull-down menu. I tried dragging the Effects window, so that it would line up where it's supposed to be, but, no such luck. I have no idea how this just disappeared like this - can anyone tell me how I can get it back to where it was? Thanks so much!

Well, that was certainly easy enough, thank you! I may be asking too much, but, when I try to drag the tab over to the right of my project tab, but, dragging it now doesn't seem to work... It's just that I'm used to it being over on the right-hand side, instead of the left - ok, thanks again!

Missing effect problem!

I have downloaded a project from a friend and in this project he uses the plug-in effect Trapcode Particular. I knew this before i downloaded his project so i intalled the effect on my machine too. But now when i open his project i always get the error message "This project contains 5 references to missing effects. Please install the following effects to restore these references. ("Particular")" and i have no idea why??
I've tried to reinstall several times, both after effects and trapcode particular but nothing seems to work, always the same error message. I've installed the effect in my programs folder, in the adobe folder, in the after effects folder, in the after effects/support files/plug-ins/effects folder but still nothing! I've also read somewhere that if you get these type of error messages the effect will work anyway but it doesnt! And in the "effects and presets" panel the effect shows up under the missing tab??
Another wierd thing is that if i go to my timeline and then click on "rain" wich is the layer particular is used on, i can still use and configure all the settings for the effect in the effect control but nothing happends on the screen. And istead of just saying "Particular" in the effect control it says "Missing: Particular" even if i can still tweek the settings!?
I really need help with this,isthis a bug or glitch or what, anyone else ever had this problem or similar, please help!

it says "Missing: Particular" even if i can still tweek the settings!?
Yes, this is as designed and ws introduced in AE 7 or CS3 (can't remember exactly...). the rest is unclear, since you didn't say anything about which version of AE nor your operating system. On a guess I would say you run CS5, but do not use the correct 64bit versions of the plug-ins, so naturally, nothing shows up because it cannot support 32bit plug-ins. Other than that it could be anything from permission issues to some system DLL used by the plug-ins missing...

Missing Effect after upgrade to 10.0.4

I upgrade to 10.0.4 - went pretty smoothly. When I opened FCPX it 'update' my Events and Projects. Now I have a clip in the time line that has a orange bar along the time frame. When I try to preview I get a red screen and a warning symbol (yellow triangle and "!"). When selecting the project the Information window states "1 Missing Effect - FastNoiseReuction". I'm assuming this filter is not longer available - how come? How do I remove it from that clip? The clip won't render as is, although I can see the clip contents OK in the timeline.

Any Effects which are deletable will appear in the inspector.
Select the clip and press Cmd+4 to open the inspector.
This grab shows the Audio Tab - with no effects.

Yikes!! (I lost my Effects Tab) .. Simple Question

Greetings all. I was editing a video on my copy of Premiere pro CS5 today and I somehow lost my effects tab.
Where is says Audio mixer, thats where I used to be able to go on the Effects tab. I just want help getting it back.
I was not paying attention when it happened but I lost it because for some reason one time I looked at it and it was in a seperate window up there. Not sure if its supposed to be but I wasn't buying it and I clicked the cross, then realised the tab is gone.
I have tried to set the layout to something else then back to editing and its still missing.
I just want to know how to enable the Effects tab. Thanks for your time.

Or,
Window>Effect Controls.

Theres no effects in effects tab at the top

There arent any effects in the effect tab at the top of affter effects it just has matte,last effect,remove effect and effect controls.

Well in my menu effects there is only effect controls,Last effect,remove all and matte. And whats the Render engine?
I am using Cs5
There are also 2 warning when i open up after effects:
Metadata browser is missing
You have at least one output module template that refers to a missing output plug-in. Please check your Output Module Templates.
It also try to install "file formats and effects" but never finishes and tell me to restart after effects for it to take effect but nothing happens and it start the process above again.

ITunes on my iPod Touch is missing some tabs

Can somebody help me?
I have:
+ iPod Touch 4th Generation 32GB
+ Wi-fi connection
+ iOS5 installed
iTunes on my iPod Touch is missing some tabs. The only tabs that's showing on my iTunes are Podcast, iTunes U, Search and Downloads
Also, whenever I try to load un Podcast tab, it ALWAYS say Your request could not be completed.
Thank you very much!

Where exactly are the tabs that are showing, are they a list at the bottom of the page and next to it is the "More" option, or are you referring to the options on the More tab? You can move these options between the bottom of the page and the More section.
Is that the problem, or is there something else missing? (Perhaps it would have helped if you had mentioned what is missing). If it's the Apps section you are looking for, it has its own App button on the Home screen.
As for the problem with downloading Podcasts, I would try getting them in iTunes on your computer if you cannot download them via the Touch's Wi-Fi.

I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but can't it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

You cannot drag the effects themselves to the timeline. You add them to a clip in the Viewer, just as you have done.
If the clip was already in the timeline when you opened it in the Viewer (by double-clicking it in the timeline to open it in the Viewer) and then added the reverb effect, there is nothing further to do, you have added the effect to the clip. You don't drag it back to the timeline.
You only have to drag the clip to the timeline if the clip was not already in the timeline (for example, if you opened the clip from the FCE Browser; or set different In and Out points in a master clip to use a different portion of the master clip in a different location in your timeline).
Depending on the effect you add, you may have to render the timeline after adding the effect. But I don't think reverb requires immediate rendering. One other note, you said you were working with an audio clip ... audio clips need to be AIFF (not MP3 or something else) and preferably 16-bit stereo.

How to remove the "Image Mask" labels under the effects tab in the Inspector window

I'm still trying to find my way round Final Cut Pro X after using Final Cut Express for many years. I don't know how I have manage to finish up with two Image Masks being set under the effects tab in the Inspector window. The Image Mask effects are not active (the box adjacent to the label is not blue) How can I remove the Image Mask label from the Effects tab in the Inspector window?
Thanks JohnH

Missing effects in cs5. Error message when I add presets.

So I'm new to AE, and need some help. When I add the "rotate over time" animation preset to a title, it says "this favorite contains 1 reference to a missing effect. Please install the following effect to restore this reference". Does anyone know how I can get this worked out? Everything is there in my effects and presets, except this error message keeps showing up when I add it. When I look in my presets folder, the transform is clearly there. Any help? Something I'm missing/overlooking?
Specs: 2010 17 in mbp, 2.53 ghz i5, 8 gb ram, 500 gb. AE cs5 10.2

Nothing to worry about. This is a so called "Pseudo Effect". More details here: http://www.batchframe.com/tutorials/12
Basically the documentation of this custom preset should have contained some code thant you need to insert into "PresetEffects.xml" and is just for naming purposes. So as long as you can live with the "missing effect" name you have nothing to worry about.

Keep losing my effects tab.

Hi
Every time I launch FCP my effects tab disappears. I go to window and click it and it comes up in a new window, not in a new tab that I can switch to from the browser tab. Then it disappears again when I relaunch. What's going on? Do I need to trash the prefs, if so can someone point to which files I need to delete as I'm new to FCP from FC Express.
Regards
Adrian

Press cmd & 5 keys to get your effects browser back.
Then go to the menu bar: Window > Arrange > Save Window Layout.
FCP should then use that file at startup. If not, you can go the same route as above, choosing Load Window Layout instead.

Lost Effects Tab In Browser. How Do I Get It Back?

That's it! How do I get the Effects Tab back in the Browser and how did I lose it in the first place?
Ian.

Thanks Rhyno,
But I have tried that and the Effects Window appears but it is no longer part of the Browser and I can't get it back in the Browser.

Missing: Search Tab

I'm trying to output a project into a CHM file using RoboHelp 8, and the resulting output completely lacks a Search tab. It's got a Contents tab, an Index tab, and that's it. (The project doesn't have a glossary, so the lack of glossary is no big surprise.) I searched through the forums, and the closest problems I saw were from people whose search tabs "didn't work." However, the fix in that situation (re-registering some DLL files), didn't work for me. I'm hoping someone out there has some insight into how to find a missing search tab. Thanks!

Hi Shawn
Sorry, but I'm unfamiliar with Frame at this stage of the game. I think the placeholders come into play here. So you may need to experiment with inserting those.
When you create output from RoboHelp, you are able to choose the specific Index you wish to include in the output. Have you ensured you have done this? Additionally, I do believe that for a merged CHM setup a couple of things have to be in place for the index to show.
The master project has to have at lest one keyword defined and mapped to a topic
The index must be configured as Binary
To add a keyword to the master you will need to display the Index Designer pod. Unfortunately it's not straightforward. You do it by expanding the Index pseudo-folder in the Project Manager pod. Then double-click the index listed.
Now you add a term to the index.
From here you ensure Binary is enabled. Click File > Project Settings...
Then when you generate output, ensure you are pointing at the right index.
Cheers... Rick

Can't Save Custom Columns in Effects Tab?

In the now archived thread at
<http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5264320&#5264320>
Jerry Hoffman and D. Gilmore describe how to right-click on a column in the Browser (other than the Name column) and then choose the Save Column Layout option, which is exactly what I'm wanting to do. Weird thing though is when I try to do this for the custom column layout I've created under my Browser's Effects tab, that "Save Column Layout..." option is greyed out, along with most of the others as well.
Under the Project tab, I can Save and Load column layouts to my heart's content, but under the Effects tab, the only options which AREN'T greyed out when I right-click on a column heading (any column heading) are Hide Column (at the top) and Show Thumbnail (at the bottom). The other five in between (including Save Column Layout) are inaccessible.
Am using 6.0.2 with OS X 10.5.2. Any theories?
Bonus Question:
Is there any way to make a custom column layout in the Browser be part of a custom window arrangement, so that when I select one of my custom window arrangements FCP will load my preferred Browser column layout at the same time?
Thanks,
John Bertram

Thanks to both Jerry and Doug for that confirmation -- albeit not the one I was hoping for!
And though it may come as a surprise, I did indeed create a custom layout of the Effects tab columns: with my Browser window over on a separate monitor, I like to have the Name column set wider (so the full names of all my Nattress FX are visible), then the Description column first (also set wider so I can actually see what the description says), and then my own Comments column immediately following that.
Despite the limited number of info columns in that Effects tab, it does seem odd that they would implement a Save Column Layout option in other Browser tabs, while then displaying it but not actually implementing it in this one tab.
So along with making custom column layouts part of custom window arrangements, I guess it's time I sent in yet another Feature Request to the friendly folks at FCP Feedback.
In any case, thanks again for the confirmation that at least my system wasn't doing something weird.
