Need help linking 2 Computers via QMaster (clustering)

I think I understand the general gist of how to accomplish this, but when I tried what various tutorials recommend, I wasn't able to see my MacBook Pro cluster while looking in the QAdministrator panel on my iMac. I had the two comps linked up via an ethernet cable, and used Command-K while in Finder to actually connect to the local address.
So, my only guess as to why the clusters can't see each other is because I'm not running the same version of QMaster. I have (I believe) 3.5.2 on my iMac, as well as the entire Final Cut Suite, whereas I only have Final Cut Express, and QMaster 3.0.5 on my MacBook Pro. Is this why the clusters can't see each other?
If this is the case, what's programs DO need to be the same version? Do both computers need the same versions of the Final Cut Suite, Compressor, AND QMaster in order to link up? If so, I'm assuming I can just take my original FCP disks and install them on my MacBook. Is that a correct assumption?
I appreciate all feedback, and any other tips or recommendations any of you may have.

You are correct with your diagnosis. Mismatched versions of QMaster and Compressor will not work together as a cluster. Here's some more information:
Installing the Software
The End User License Agreement for Final Cut Studio says that you can install your copy of FCS on one desktop and one laptop that you own, but they cannot launch similar apps simultaneously. What that means, is you can install FCS 3 on your MacBook Pro, (which will give you matching versions of Compressor and QMaster, and matching codecs). Then you should be able to set up your cluster.

  • Technical Newbie Need help linking 2 computers with WRT54G

    Hi, Please excuse my non-technical language!
    I have 2 PCs that I would like to connect together so that one can get files from the other and vice versa.
    I have a broadband modem hooked up to a linksys wrt54g wireless router, and each computer is hooked up to the router with cables. I figured out how to configure it so that both computers can get on the internet and I haven't had any problems there.
    This may sound dumb since I was able to get online using the router, but what I need some basic help with is how to connect the 2 computers to each other.
    I read the information on the website and I'm sure this is possible, I just don't know what I need to download or change on the computers to make it happen.
    Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

    What operating systems do you have on your PC's?  There are a few ways to configure your network but largely depends on your operating systems you have.  Basically you can open the network wizard and set up the network on each PC or you can do it manually.  Depending on your OS go to your control panel and click on Network Connections or Network Setup Wizard .  If you use the network Wizard just go through the set up or you can click on Network Connections and on the left side there is a link to "Set up a home or small office network" if your OS is Windows XP.  Make sure both PC's are on the same workgroup and file and printer sharing is turned on.

  • Need help linking spry tabbed panel from external page

    Could use some help.  I need to link to a specific spry tabbed panel on page "A" from a link on page "B"  I have tried several "solutions" on the web and had no luck.  When I add the code needed at the bottom of the code where you initiate the instance, it stacks the content of ALL panels in the first panel, and renders the tabs inoperable.  This is a key feature I need in a new site being developed.

  • HT3069 Hi need help renting, Italian movies via my Apple TV (currently Australia Settings).

    Hi All,
    Need help with renting a movie/tv show on my Apple TV, in a different country.
    I have tried to change the setting on my Apple TV but when I proceeded to rent a movie, it told me I needed to set up an itunes account?
    I already have one in English/Australia isnt the sufficent ?
    Any help would be really appreciated.
    Cheers
    Anthony

    Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
    RESPONSES:
    1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC.  I simply used the same iTunes login and account.  I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store.  If I click "Download Previous Purchases"  text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
    2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered.  I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam.  Good response for you.  Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome.  I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
    QUESTIONS:
    3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download?  Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
    SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU... 
    I work in the computer support section for the Military.  The only problem is we use Windows , lol.  Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover.  I go back next month though I hope.  But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein.  Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself. 

  • HELP!  Need help linking Nano to existing Nike+ account

    Hope someone can help as I'm going out of my mind. I searched but couldn't find another topic like this.
    I had to restore my nano (2nd gen) to its original factory settings in itunes, which erased all songs and data. My Nano is working great now, but it's no longer linked to my Nike Plus account. When I now connect the restored Nano, under the Nike + tab in itunes I cannot check the box to automatically send my workout data to Nike+. The only option is to register. I'm already registered but there isn't an option to link to an existing account?
    After the restore on my nano, how do I link it in itunes to my existing Nike+ account that has all my run data stored? Like I said, the only option on Itunes is to register and that's not what I want to do since I already am registered!
    I guess this would be the same problem if I bought a new Nano so I'm sure this question has been raised before.
    Please help! I need this fixed before my run tomorrow! Thanks folks!
    Scott

    GFF,
    Yes, I checked the link you provided below and couldn't find any topic with a similar problem. I already did my run for the day so won't know until tomorrow if the receiver and sensor gather info but everything appears like it will work just fine. When I plug the receiver in the Nike+ option pops up in the menu and it looks ready to go. It even recognizes the sensor so I think that's okay.
    I did email Nike Plus but they haven't answered yet.
    When I connect the Nano to itunes, I cannot check or uncheck the box to automatically send the info. The only option is to "create a Nike account." I clicked this and tried to just add my existing account and it wouldn't let me saying it already exists.
    There has to be a simple way to do this. Can't imagine you lose everything if you get a new Nano or have to restore one.
    Maybe more options will pop up after my run tomorrow morning when I plug in the Nano to itunes with a run to send to Nike+
    I'll let you know. Until then, any other suggestions would really be appreciated!

  • Need help linking to an external PDF file

    How can I create a link inside my robohelp project that links to a PDF file that has NOT been copied into the project. I am looking for a link with a relative path in the event the files may someday need to be moved.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Microsoft's HTML Help documentation includes a script with which you can link to an external file. See:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644690(vs.85).aspx
    This opens the external file in the topic pane of the Help viewer. If you'd rather open the file in its native application (Acrobat or Adobe Reader, in your case), you'd need to use a script like this one:

    Hey @Davidm123 ,
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand you're experiencing an issue with poor video output to your projector.
    According to the product page you have linked, the projector has a native resolution of 320 x 240. This would likely explain the poor video output.
    You should be able to confirm the resolution settings in the Screen Resolution menu of Windows by right clicking on your Desktop and selecting Screen Resolution.
    Thanks.

  • NEED HELP LINKING TO FILES!

  • Need help Linking Images

    I copied and pasted pictures from online into my indesign document. By doing that my document size is over 100mb. I need to reduce the file size.
    I am trying to reduce the file size because I am working on a project for college and need to submit it. How can I use the image source (website link) to add an image to my indesign document so that I am able to reduce my file size...
    Any ideas?

    What, exactly are you supposed to submit?
    The correct way to do this is to save the images to your hard drive, then PLACE them in the ID file. THis will make the file smaller, BUT you must still include the images in any package of native files you deliver, so the overall size of the project on disk is not going to be reduced unless you are using images more than once (in which case you only deliver the single linked file, but ID keeps multiple pointers to it in the document -- pointers are very small, images tend to be big).
    Can you submit a PDF?

  • Getting this error, need help: No Name Available via DNS

    Hello,
    i was wondering if someone can help me out. i m being getting this error message xserver servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no name available via DNS for 192.168.0.XXX . The server is set up stand alone server, only being use to host Filemaker Pro Databases. i type hostname to see what it show me, it show me fmserver.local. the internal ip assign to it, it is static and the WAN IP is also static.
    any help would be appreciate it.
    thank you

    if you change your network interface's DNS to point to yourself, then you should add your isp's nameservers to the "fowarders" options in your /etc/named.conf file, so your nameserver, when it can't find a local or cached record to answer the query, can still use your ISPs nameserver to lookup the information...

  • Needs help Linking back the audio to video files (MXF)

    I already unlinked the audio from certain video files (MXF) because I needed only the video, but now I would need only the sound, but it seems like the audio of those clips is gone. I tried importing the clip again (audio + audio linked to it) but there is no waves in the sound. Can't hear anything. Tried to import the sound by itself, but still no sound. When I look in the P2 viewer there are only 2 soundraks showing (3&4). Track 1 & 2 are gone and still no sound. How can I get the sound back for these clips. There must be a way?
    Thanks for your time

    Import the entire P2 Contents Folder again.

  • I NEED HELP WITH DEAUTHORIZING COMPUTERS IN ITUNES...PLEASE

    I have 5 authorized computers on my itunes acct and i am only using two of those.  i have no idea where the other 3 computers are now. if i deauthorize all my computers will i lose all my music and info or will it return when i re authorize the good 2 pcs i want to use? and will this make any changes to my iphone or itouch?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    See iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization for Macs.
    See How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld for Windows.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • "Need Help" link no longer exists for developer error troubleshooting

    I am completing the "Contact Management" tutorial--which is quite well documented, I must say--and have discovered that the old Interakt Collection had links pop up to diagnose possible solutions to error messages. These have been surreptitiously deleted--thanks a lot, Adobe--with no update in the documentation... What a fantastic idea, though, and a wonderful way to pinpoint problems for learning developers (such as myself)... Ah well, too bad...

    Incidentally, what has become of this resource? Even in archived form, it could prove to be an invaluable aid...

  • Need help connecting two macbooks via ethernet

    im at home trying to get my snow leopard disc to install on my macbook. my optical drive is busted so i was trying to use my brothers macbook pro to mount the image and then boot my machine to it.
    i only have an ethernet cable. can anyone help us? thanks in advance.

    Ethernet or wireless isn't usable because in order to access the drive you must have File Sharing enabled on the computer which you cannot do unless the computer is booted into OS X. If it's booted into OS X you cannot install on it without losing file sharing capability.
    A possible workaround if you can get it working is to use Remote Disc Access as is used on the MacBook Airs. See the following:
    MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks;
    MacBook Air- Sharing DVDs or CDs with Remote Disc.
    The software can be downloaded from support.apple.com/downloads/.
