Missing the viewer window

When I open a new project in final cut pro only the canvas window will show up. I have tried to open a viewer window both with the keyboard short cut and in the tool bar but nothing happens. Is there a setting that would prevent the viewer from opening?

Hi -
Type Control-U, This should set the standard window configuration.
Hope this helps.

  • Mail won't display the viewer window, and it will not close (force quit does not show in menu bar).  Can't shut down to reboot because the open mail program prevents it.   Any advice?

    Mail does not show the viewer window even when new viewer window is cliced.  I tried to close mail and reopen, but it will not close, and force quit option does not appear in window bar.   I tried to shut down the computer and reboot, but it cannot close because of open mail program it says.    Help!

    Many thanks.  Once I was able to close mail, it reopened and behaved quite normally.  Thank you.  I'll remember the option quit for force quite!

  • Why can't I create a response to an email from the Viewer window?

    Why can't I create a response to an email from the Viewer window?
    When I select an email to respond to in the viewer window and click on the respond arrow that appears just under the header, a new response email opens for a split second then disappears.
    I have to actually click on and open the email message in its own screen to be able to then click on the respond arrow and succeed in having Mail open a response email that I can edit - one that remains open.
    This seems to be a bug that we need to have squashed.

    Do I have to connect the iPad to a computer to make this work? Is the fact that I used another email address to set up my Apple ID years ago causing the problem? A friend of mine just got a new iPod and he was able to set up a me.com account. I am feeling rather stupid. Hope someone here can help.

  • I cannot view clips on the viewer window - as it appears black, However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.

    Hello!
    I cannot view any of the clips (not from event browser nor from timeline) on the viewer window - as it appears black/or blank/ or static ! However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.
    P.S I have chosen the filter: ALL
    Please help me with that I'm getting desperate ! I need to finish a project within one week :(
    A million thanks in advance

    Hi F. Carl
    The clip is intact and it has video and audio.
    I have worked on it before and all was fine until I lost the work when it got frozen!
    The issue is:
    I have a (MOV.) ready clip that I wanted to edit a bit, hence I have imported the clip (import media) and whenever I try to work on it, the black screen prohibits me from doing anything.
    Any ideas please ... It's really strange !

  • SqlDeveloper View/Files menuItem freezes the View window

    I have installed SQLDeveloper ver 3.1.07 on a Win7 64-bit OS. But I cannot get the View/Files window to work. As soon as I try to drill down a folder it hangs ny showing a child node saying "loading...". This also screws up my Connections window so that I no longer can view or open Connections. (if I try to open the root node for a Connection I get the same child node saying "loading..." with nothing more happening). It seems like the View window gets corrupt or crashes every time I try to view Files.
    I have tried with installing and referencing (in the sqldeveloper.conf file SetJavHome) both JDK1.6 (build 11 and 32) and JDK1.7 (build 3) but nothing helps. Has anyone encountered this? It works fine on my old 32 bit machine (sqlDev 3.0.04 and JDK 1.6.11)

    Hi,
    Does your new machine include an install of some SVN client software? There might be an incompatibility with the SVN included in SQL Developer:
    Re: 3.1EA1 File browser bug?
    If that's the case, either disable this capability in SQL Developer or install a new SVN client version that does not conflict.

  • Can the brushes be mapped to the area below the viewer window?

    I have sent in a recommendation to map the brushes individually so you don't have to select the brush icon then the brush you want. But I am just wondering if there is a way somewhere to do this and I just don't know about it?
    I would like to map the brushes individually below the Viewer window or in full screen mode so I can quickly switch between them.

    I agree. The Radial Menu is extremely fast and useful once you get used to it.
    You can still map the proper brush commands to single keys on the keyboard and use that. And most (all?) the Quick Brushes are still just two clicks away on the Toolstrip.
    You can make a feature request for more and customizable buttons on the Toolstrip: "Aperture→Provide Aperture Feedback".

  • Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??

    Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??
    Then a few minutes later, it goes back to expanded again, it is driving me crazy.  how can I stop this????
    Thanks for any help.

    There could be a number of reasons, first thing to check is if you are clicking Command + or Command -. The Command 0 keystrokes restore Safari to the actual size. You can also reset Safari by Safari - Reset.

  • How to keep the Viewer window active during cutting and inserting to timeline?

    Greetings all, I'm a football coach looking to use FCP to do my film breakdowns.  Been learning as much as I can about FCP and I've done some trial runs, so far so good, though it's a bit slow going since I am a football coach after all .  Anyhow, current issue is I want to be able to take a game film and cut it up into plays, each play is a separate clip.  I'm getting it to go fairly quickly, I have the film open in the Viewer, just mark in and out and I've been dragging the clip down to the timeline, one after the other, using the insert option.  I'm now trying to use the F9 key to have it insert to timeline without me having to drag it.  It works except the problem is that once the clip is inserted to the timeline, the Canvas window becomes the active one rather than the Viewer.  So if I keep hitting 'I' and 'O' and F9, it won't be cutting up the film since the Viewer isn't active.  As it is now I'll need to remember to click the mouse in the Viewer window after each insert in order to have that active and be able to resume my I,O,F9 routine.  Is there a way around this?  It seems like a small issue but I can't find any support on it and it could end up being a massive headache where one little slip up means a lot of wasted time.  Am I explaining this clearly and does anyone have a solution?  Any other thoughts on football video editing that people are curious about or have seen that might be helpful?  I appreciate your time,
           Grouch

    Or a third way would be (if you only cut out small pieces of the overall footage):
    Drag the whole clip in to the timeline. Mark in and out for the parts that you DON'T want.
    Hit the Delete button (if you have an extended keyboard or Shift-Backspace, if you are using a Macbook (Pro).

  • Is there a way to zoom out the viewing window of mac applications?

    Is there a way to zoom out the viewing window of mac applications? I know for sure in safari I can zoom out, but it reverts to the original size as soon as I close out the window. I would really like to do this in safari and mail.
    Thank you.

    Try system Preferences/Accessibility/Zoom.

  • Since March 2012 my iphoto 11 trash folder says that I have 13,346 photos in the iphoto trash, but there are no thumb nail copies in the viewer window.  I can delete additional photos but clicking on the "empty trash" button.  Any solutions?

    Since March 2012 my iphoto 11 trash folder says that I have 13,346 photos in the iphoto trash, but there are no thumb nail copies in the viewer window.  I can delete additional photos but clicking on the "empty trash" button. 
    My system trash finally emptied when I discovered "trash it!" is not longer supported by the most recent osx.  Then I found an updated version of Onyx that did work with that trash emptying problem.
    I have a total of 5,723 photos in my library.  A macdevelopers group recently started suggesting a multi library manager for iphoto to overcome some kind of library quota limitations with iphoto as opposed to "more advanced" photo handling, storing and editing programs.  If I went to a mult library manager for iphoto would that cure the apparent incongruent data retrieval problem in iphoto 11 regarding 13,346 phantom photos that will not securely delete?
    Are there any other possible solutions out there? 

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • How to adjust the Viewer window to less than 25% ?

    Hi all experts,
    At the top of the viewer window, there is a dropdown to select the % of the screen. The option given are FIT, 25% ... etc.
    But how to adjust to smaller than 25% ? Or for that matter, how to type in a percentage number ?
    Thanks

    Thanks Tom,
    So the minimum size is set at 15%.

  • When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    Thanks David. I had to convert the mts file to Quick Time (using AunSoft Conversion software) before I could import it into Final Cut Express. And I made sure I kept the size of movie (720 X 480 with letterbox) to compliment what I set my Panaconic AVCCAM video recorder at (720/60). Even after I fully render it, it still looks fuzzy in the Canvas window at the right that plays what I have editing down in the Timeline. A friend that edits some using Final Cut Pro helped me to narrow things down to this problem. This is also wierd. If my Viewer window at the left is set to 200% to get the person's head the same size in the Canvas window at the right we needed to put it to 400%. Does this make any sense. We think we need to control the Time line resolution somehow but cannot find any options from my manual, or the help, or in the various drop down menus. Do you have any clue? What is going on?

  • Audio clips in the Viewer window

    When I double click on an audio track from the timeline, to place into the viewer window, the tab always reads "Stereo (a1a2)" indicating the top (uppermost) track when I have clicked on the (A7A8) track. I have tried using the "Auto Select" toggle with no change. Also, once an audio clip appears in the viewer, all my previous tabs such Video, etc. disappear...Any suggestions?

    It doesn't seem to make sense that you are required to place the tracks into the viewer window for subsequent editing and the viewer has no way to identify what track you are working on???
    That's because - as FCP sees it - although you are working from a clip already placed into the Timeline (hence the sprocket holes in the Viewer's scrubber bar) all the relevant info references the clip as it was captured or imported.
    That is, even though your clip might be placed at 1:00:00;00 in the Timeline, it's In point is at, say, 0:35:24;17 in the clip's own timecode.
    If you've clicked on audio, the Viewer will display audio as sequential tracks for the clip (remember FCP 5 can have up to 24 tracks of audio for a clip). In FCP's way of thinking a1a2 are it's way of letting you know that there are only 2 audio tracks (a stereo pair) in your clip.
    And, yes, the logic can be quite dangerous.

  • Enlarging the viewer/window for videos

    When I try to view an older (non-HD) video in Aperture the viewing window is very small (1 inch by 1 inch in some cases where it was 160X120).  In iPhoto I simply was able to drag the window to make it larger.  That doesn't seem to work here.  Full screen mode doesn't alter the size either.  In fact, nothing I do seems to change the viewing size.  I tried zoom under the window menu and the view menu each without success.  Any suggestions?

    I do not know of any way to zoom the video viewer, other than using Quicktime as an external editor, but you can view your videos enlarged in Aperture, if you add them to a slideshow and then present the slideshow  in full screen mode or enlarge the viewer in the slideshow. The video will always be shown large enough to fill the viewer in the slideshow, even if it will be blown up too much,  like this:
