Motion 5 is hanging with the simplest emitter effects (qtkitserver)

On both my retina MBP and new Mac Pro (6 core d500) I am finding Motion unusable. Just a simple effect (like any of the emitters) is very unstable. Activity monitor shows qtkitserver stops responding. Motion gets extremely laggy....beachballs....long freezes.
The Mac Pro is a super clean install. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for any help.

You may have got them working but the name of that folder is completely wrong.
If your normal FCS applications are in the Application Folder and you want to keep them there, you should make a folder called exactly
Final Cut Pro X
Any deviation in lettering or spacing is incorrect.
Your FCP X and Compressor 4 and Motion 5, with their original names unchanged (Final Cut Pro, Compressor and Motion) must be put in it.
The exact details are in the final section of this KBA entitled "Restore FCS apps to their original location".

If the folder and the apps have not got the correct names you will probably be unable to use further updates.

My ipad hang with the apple logo

Hi, while i was connecting my ipad to my PC, the system prompt me to upgrade ipad version. When i click yes it tried to download but was having error. I terminated and my ipad got hang with the apple logo with the emply downloading symbol. Help!!

You need to put your iPad into recovery mode, follow these instructions.
the iPad (which should NOT be connected to your PC) and hold down the sleep button (on the top of the iPad) and the home button (front of the iPad) at the same time
After about 10-15 seconds, the unit will power off (do not do anything when the "slide to power off" screen appears, just keep holding the buttons)
When the iPad turns back on, you will see the silver Apple appear on the screen. Continue holding down the home button but release the sleep button and immediatly plug the iPad into your computer running iTunes

Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. Any suggestion?

Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. I already tried to rebuild the iPhoto Library (all the possible options) and tried to update teh version from 9.4.3 to 9.5 but the problem still persists: is there a way to delete this slideshow without selecting it ? How can I solve the problem, please?
Kind Regards

Can you restore your iPhoto Library from a backup version, that was created before you added the slideshow?
If not, have you tried to rebuild the slideshow with iPhoto Library Manager?
As described by Terence Devlin here: Re: iphoto library was created with an unrelased version of iphoto please quit and ugrade library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4

Bridge CC no compatible with the new After Effects CC 2014 ?

Hi, I'm updating the Adobe suite (CC 2014) .but After Effects CC 2014 no longer works with the old Bridge CC (there is no update of Bridge). Since "browse presets" in After Effects when choosing a preset (dissolves etc) there is an error message:
"After Effects error: can not import file" Entries lum.-marq.calque.ffx "unsupportedfiletype or extension (0 :: 1). With all presets.
I tried on other computers with other adobe updated it makes such licenses except with the old version of adobe after effects (after CC effects) I tried too to change language of Bridge and After effects (beharps this is a langage compatibility problem) but the problem is the same.
So I think the new version after effects CC 2014 is not compatible with the presets adobe bridge CC ??
How can I do? I have to go through the old version of after to apply a preset Bridge? I can not even download it in cloud creativ ... there is only the new version of after effects...

One more nugget: Chart zoom with the "Mouse Over" effect

Hello all.
Just read my signature first, it might explain a lot. I do not intend to compete with Darren and I don't think this "nugget" (at least it supposed to be one) will amaze any of the LV veterans and this forum is rich of them. But maybe it will bring some new ideas to some of you or maybe it will be useful for some LV beginners (like me). It is very likely, my code will have some lapses, but please be gentle pointing that out to me. If you feel a need, you can always optimize the code and develope it further. Just don't forget to share!
So back to the point.
I am developing a project using LV. In my program there is a waveform chart which has to show 4 plots. Depending on the length of the X Scale, it sometimes gets hard to see the plots clearly because of their density.So I decided that I need a tool, which would zoom the chart in. And this is what I have came up with after a few "Google" searches to check which part of the bike is already invented and also a bit of programming by myself.
Maybe you guys (at least the veterans) know the BetterVIEW Consulting LV example where they have implemented the Mouse Over effect. So a part of their example has been used in this tool and part of the credit must go to them. I thank them a lot
This tool uses a cluster and its property of visibility to show/hide the cluster depending on if the current position of the mouse cursor is in the desired range or not. The program also gets the image of the chart and returns the subset of the image. The subset is taken for the area arounf the mouse cursor. So if you move the mouse, the zoomed in area will also chage in response. After that, the subset of the image is zoomed in for better view.
The user might chage the zoom factor during the execution. Also it is possible to turn the zoom option On or Off if you don't wish to see it for the moment.
This is how the front panel looks like:
And this is the image of the block diagram (see the attached files for the vi, the VI Snippet tool distorts the code too much, so I haven't added it):
I haven't found anything the same in the forum. Yet I'm a newbie here and I don't have that much experience surfing it. If it wouldn't be something new (in the forum, not necessarily to some of you personally), just ignore the thread. I hope this was worth your time and your attention.
Good coding

While evaluating my code please have in mind that I am a LV novice. Therefore sometimes my code might violate some coding rules that I have to learn about myself. But how else could I do that...

Very nice Giedrius.
It takes guts to "step up to the chalk board" so I will do what i can to give you some ideas to think about. This is similar to the type of feedback I offer durring our in-house code reviews.
1) The floating property nodes outside the loop are not sequenced by wires so they could execute after the loop starts. Sometimes this could cause weird errors. Seq with the error cluster.
2) Property nodes can be re-sized so you can apply more than one property setting in the same call. Property node have to execute in the UI thread (which is single threaded) so using a single nodes will force a single context switch rather than one for each.
3) Setting the same property repeatedly in a loop just burns CPU. THe Scale min for both X an Y can be moved outside the loop ?
4) THe Wait Until Next ms" function does not get used in any of my code. It is not a way to get a fixed wait but rather a random wait. If you code completes 1 ms after the next multiple, the delay is double less 1 ms. If you have multiple loops using them and it f the delay for each are not unique prime numbers, then the "Wait until next ms multiple" is a good (cough cough) way of getting them all to wake up at the same time and fight for the CPU.
5)An Event Struture to monitor mouse enter/leave and mouse move (this would have to be a sepearte loop) is easier on the CPU than polling.
6) Is that math in the case to handle the Chart position on the FP? If so then using the property nodes for the chart to find its postion will let you code adapt to GUI changes.
7) Right to left wires are not well recieved.
8) A Bundle by Name is prefered over a "Bundle" since it is self documenting. I know the Picture function so I can see that is the rectangle you are specifying but reader not famliar with that function would not be able to "READ" the code without poking at it.
9) THe event structure would also help with setting the Zoom factor. Only poke it when you have to.
That is all that comes to mind at the moment.
Again thank you!

10.5.5 hangs with the beachball

I have a macbook (dual core 2) and early intel iMac (dual core) 2006. Both have pretty much same setup and now have 10.5.5. My iMac started exhibiting the "beachball of death" freezes more and more in last few days. It started in iTunes when watching videos and "spread" over a couple days to most applications even finder would "freeze" for 20-30 seconds.
The main difference between the two is that a hard drive die on this iMac (the old 250 WD) I had replaced it with 500 GB just before this started. I had been running the iMac for two days before I put the new 500GB on an external 300GB HD that I had restored my last backups of time machine (from a 1 terabyte time capsule) for two days.
I have followed recommendation on this area of discussions to fix permissions and repair files. No files seemed to be repaired but there was a small collection of permissions out of order. That did not seem at first to fix things. I also rebooted into install DVD and fixed more permissions and two more were found. That seemed to work for a few hours. Also cleared Safari and such caches.
But then things started a bit (but pretty low level so far but they are back to a lower extent and this is not normal). I also read about similar problems and suggestion my new HD might be culprit or that my memory might have some issue (we removed it while we did HD replacement). So I ran Apple Hardware Test in extended mode - pasted with flying colors. I also used the Remeber program to test out the ram with overnight loops. Memory tested fine.
So not sure what is wrong but clearly it is a software issue. I am now suspicious of iTunes 8 a bit because that is where this is appearing again first (like it did before it spread to other apps and finder) While fixing all the file permissions seemed to have calmed it down alot it is back and first appeared in iTunes (so far). Symptoms in iTunes 8 consist of following:
1) On reboot and startup the rest of loading things is paused as iTunes takes a long beachball pause with it first starting and syncing my 32GB attached iPod touch and then my 16GB 3G iphone (the former seems to be one with long pause because it is set to start the iTunes and such). I have since had it not start with touch attached to avoid this annoyance at startup and do a manual sync when I want to do things.
2) When watching a tv show as I get in last 10 minutes I am starting to get again (they had spread throughout in earlier pre permission fix problems) 20-30 second pauses of my playing and then the video skips the 20-30 seconds ahead when it continues.
So iTunes might be the prime culprit in my current thinking although it was weird that this stuff the first time had spread to all apps and finder (now subdued by my permisions fixing it would appear). But it is interesting after just one video of an hour my iTunes is starting with the same symptoms that seemed to start this. So far it has not (over night at leas) spread again to other apps and such. Maybe this is two issues and I fixed the later but I wonder an time will tell.....
Any ideas out there?
Thanks
Russ Jacobson

Ok, new day new problems.
It looks like it's something serious. The system is completely unusable atm. Whenever it runs everything seems to work fine, but it can simply hang at any moment regardless of what I'm doing. It usually doesn't stay up for more then 5 minutes.
I've tried a few more things in the mean time. Installing the combo update didn't solve it. I've completely removed everything related to iTunes using the Apple instructions, but it didn't help any.
I've basically ruled out it being usb related as I previously suspected, because i'm running the system now with just my bluetooth mouse, no usb device of any kind attached, including a keyboard, and it still hangs just as frequently.
I also created a new user and tried the system under that account, but the results are the same.
I've noticed a new symptom now, and it's quite worrysome. Whenever the system goes into it's unresponsive state, I hear the harddrive spin down. Then after a while it will sometimes spin up again, but it will only be for a short time and it will sometimes allow an application to very shortly make a bit of progress, but then the HD spins down again. At some point it simply won't spin up anymore, forcing a reboot. Sometimes, this behaviour can keep going for quite a while, with the HD constantly spinning up and down and applications constantly being unresponsive because of it. This however, is not something that seemed to be occuring yesterday, at least not in such an extreme way.
I understand the unresponsive state a bit better now too. Basically, applications function, but whenever you ask it to do anything, it will completely stall because it seems to need to access the HD. This allows some animations to continue, for example the dock, but whenever I try to start an application, it will stall.
I think I'm going to try a archive-and-install and upgrade to 10.5.4, just to see if it helps, but at this point I suspect a more serious problem.

How do you match the audio and text with the typer writer effect in Final Cut Pro?

I am making a video and I want to sync up the text with the audio using the typer writer effect. For example I want when the music makes a bing noise I want a letter to pop up. How do you set the exact time for each letter that comes up instead of just choosing the duration.
Thank you!!!!
Virginia

The most common cause is user error in understanding how these things are recorded in the acquisition system. You've got to first determine in it's easily solved by properly transcoding or if you're actually just seeing a display lag. Mismatched sync is based on different timebase scales so the offset gets worse the longer a clip plays.
The most common solution is to unlink the components, time them precisely to the frame, and change the speed of one component to match precisely the length of the other. It's easy and usually results in a slight pitch change that is indiscernible.
But you want to figure out the cause, not just he solution, so you can fix it in production instead of in post.

Is it possible to change the orientation with the Ken Burns effect?

Friends,
I would like to change the orientation of the Ken Burns effect for a particular photo that I've insterted into a movie. In other words, the KBE crops the image in landscape mode -- I'd like to crop it in portrait mode (which is how the photo was taken). How do I do this?
Thanks!
Steve

Tom,
You broke my heart, but I figured out a way around it using cropping and keyframes.
Thanks!

Can't install 4.4 upgrade - just hangs with the loading bar 3/4 of the way

When I try to install the 4.4 Lightroom upgrade it does not complete the installation it just stops three quarters of the way through with the green installation bar displayed. I am running Windows 7 64 bit

Hi, I too bought an 8310 today and have spent so far 6 hours trying to install on Vista using every twist available via the Blackberry so-called support pages and have got nowhere. Naturally, I'm delighted with their sparkling product; reading the postings on this topic, it seems doubtful that anyone will be able to resolve the problems we individually face, however, for good measure I'll add mine.
In my latest attempt I downloaded 4.3 from the website (without media player), extracted all files as a .zip and ran the executable as Administrator. It runns the installer right to the end (I guess) then gives me "Error 1935. An error occured during the installation of assembly component (97.... F18E) HRESULT 0x80073683". It then rolls back and kicks me out.
Pretty hacked off, shame they don't offer any 'real' support. Sign of the times, i guess. John

IPhoto 4.0.3 Also hangs with the spinning wheel

I am having the same problem as several of the other folks. iPhoto can't find the library - I have tried all the suggestions to date to no avail. I have restarted iPhoto holding the option+shift key and it created the library but now the wheel is spinning and the dialogue box says "Repairing Photo Library" but nothing is happening for the past ten minutes. iPhoto was working Sunday morning and then Sunday evening it just quit.
Separate question: Will upgrading to iPhoto 5.0 take care of the problem?

Eric:
If you start from scratch and reimport all of your photos you should not get the SWOD. First, create a new library and see if you can open it, even without any photos. If not, then it's not the library but the application or conflict with your current setup. If that's the case, log into another account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto from there. If it runs OK then you've narrowed it down to conflict with your account (see Troubleshooting below). If it doesn't then I would reinstall the latest combo system updater for your system followed by a repair of disk permissions. If still no go, reinstall iPhoto from the disks they came on, update to 4.0.3 and repair disk permissions again. To reinstall iPhoto you'll have to first delete the current application and all files with iPhoto in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receips folder.
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Prefs folder (in its entirety) to the desktop. Start iPhoto. Determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up. Except for those items that are obviously not related, move the contents to the old Prefs folder on the desktop, replacing what had been there. When in doubt, move the item. The worst thing that can happen is a harmless "alert" message. Then, trash what remains of the new folder. Finally, move the old (but modified) Prefs folder back to the library.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the old one back to its original location.

Portal hangs with the little loading image

Hello,
we have completly intermittend occurances of the portal hangin at the little loading image when navigating arround (not the big wheel in the middle but the small grey whirl in the top left page area).
I've been through all log files, did dumps and everything but can not find a single mention of anything wrong at the time. Its completly random, happens in different places at different times with different users.
The whole Browser window locks and has to be terminated via the Task Manager.
Would anyone know what/where I can find any information and what exactly hapens when the wheel is shown?
Thanks for thinking!

Hi Andi,

SVG objects with the feSpecularLighting filter effect do not display

When I open a Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg) file in Firefox, any objects having filters that contain the <feSpecularLighting> filter primitive, do not display at all and in rare cases, even causes Firefox to crash.
For example:
*http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/Video_game_health_bar.svg
It should render like this:
*http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ee/Video_game_health_bar.svg/3000px-Video_game_health_bar.svg.png

In order to get the SVG file to render like the PNG, you need to edit kernelUnitLength from 0.01 to approximately 1.0 (or delete it). Not sure whether something might have changed in how Firefox handles this attribute to cause such a drastic difference.
I should test in a clean profile to see whether I get the same result...
''Edit: Same result in a clean profile, i.e., no extensions or settings changes from factory default.''

Derive Expire date value with the next high effective date next row - 1 day

Hi
Trying to fiind a way to derive a new date (EXPIRE_DATE) in a SQL query, the data is ordered by EFF_DATE, How do you derive EXPIRE_DATE column ...
Sample data:
ID_NO                EFF_DATE         EXPIRE_DATE
2004 02/03/2011 Null
3922 06/04/2010 01/03/2011
4454 20/06/2009 05/04/2010

4232 13/07/2006 16/02/2008
Thanks
Qwestion

Give this a shot:
SELECT id_no
     , eff_date
     , LAG(eff_date) OVER (ORDER BY eff_date DESC) - 1 AS expire_date
FROM   table_x
ORDER BY eff_date DESC
