OK, I updated to FCS2 - what happened to all my favorite effects in FCP??

Yep, my favorites folder in the browser effects tab, which I had full of my carefully crafted transitions etc., is empty. What happened to them?

Your "Favorites" were part of FCP's preference file. When you installed the later version, preferences were most likely overwritten.
To guard against this happening with future updates, hard drive crashes, preferences corruptions, etc, create an FCP project named "Favorites." Add a color matte to the Timeline and cut it up into as many pieces as you have Favorite transitions. Add all your Favorite filters to one of the clips. Save the project file.
After upgrades or any other time you're required to restore your preferences, open the "Favorites" project and drag all of the transitions and filters into the Favorites Bin to restore them.
If you have previous project files in which you used some of those Favorites, you can re-open those projects and restore them the same way - having a "Favorites" project file with all of them just makes it easier to do.

    since i updated my iphone to ios7, i can no longer download applications and also cannot update my apps. what happened? there is an alert popping and it tells that i should switch to Philippine store.

    Hi, sallymaesmag. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are in the Philippines, check to see if the country is changed in the iTunes Store settings on the iOS device.  These steps will show you how to change the preference.
    Change your iTunes Store country
    Sign in to the account for the iTunes Store region you'd like to use. TapSettings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
    Follow the onscreen process to change your region, agree to the terms and conditions for the region if necessary, and then change your billing information.

  • What happened to all of the options under Site Manager?

    There used to be tons of options under Site Manager:
    Pages
    Page Templates
    Module Templates
    Content Holders Menus
    Web Forms
    File Manager
    Etc.
    Now I only have two:
    Web Forms
    System Emails
    What happened to all of the extra options, and how do I access them now? Seems like it only happened since the BC updates.
    I have an Ecommerce BC Plan, so I should have everything.

    Turns out it was something simple. I created a ticket, and got the answer back. I clicked on "my details" under my name in the top right. I then checked and enabled "content editing". Somehow it must have gotten disabled because I was using Muse.

  • I found My iPhone contacts on my friends Iphone we both have 4s! But we use the same apple ID and ICloud ID! How can undo what happened? all my private stuff is now on his phone!!! help me plz!!?

    I found My iPhone contacts on my friends Iphone we both have 4s! But we use the same apple ID and ICloud ID! How can undo what happened? all my private stuff is now on his phone!!! help me plz!!?

    Of course if you are both connected to the same iCloud account you have the same contacts - what did you expect?. The contacts live on the server and are read from there by the devices; so as you've both managed to sync your contacts up to iCloud they are now inextricably mixed. You can only delete your contacts by deleting individual ones, and doing that will delete them from your phone as well.
    You can only unravel this by
    1. In the iCloud contacts page at http://icloud.com, select all the contacts, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
    2. Sign out of System Preferences>iCloud
    3. Create a new Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with it for your own use.
    4. Import the vCard back into the iCloud contacts page.
    5. Go to http://icloud.com and sign in with the original ID. This is now his ID. Work through the contacts individually deleting the ones you don't want him to have. When done sign out and advise him to change his password.
    6. Go to the new iCloud account and delete his contacts individually.
    Of course if you have also been syncing calendars and using the same email address there are problems with doing this.

  • When I open iPhoto its asks me what photo library I want to use.  I already have a photo library that i've been using for 2 years, where did it go? and why am I being asked now to choose a library or "create new" what happened to all my photos?

    When I open iPhoto it asks me to choose a photo library.  I already have a libary with photos and events in it that I've been using for 2 years.  Where did it go?  What happened to all my photos

    We have no way of knowing what goes on on your machine. All we can tell is that your iPhoto library is missing and iPhoto can't find it. If you can't find then I the only thing you can do is restore from your Back Up.

  • How do I install iLife 8 and what happens to all my old projects?

    I want to buy and install iLife 8 but as I have never upgraded to a new version before I don't know how you do this (apart from purchasing it of course).
    Step by step, how do you install the disc?
    What happens to all my existing and work in progress iMovie and iDVD projects? Can I continue to work on them or should I wait until I have finished them before upgrading?

    If you have a book started in iPhoto 6 then you might want to make a backup copy of the library and the application as some book themes are not included in iPhoto 7. iPhoto 7 will continue to work with that theme but if you switch to another to see what it looks like you can't go back. Another approach is to make a copy of the book in iPhoto 6 for backup just in case, select it and type Command-D.
    It apperars that the new large hardcover books have printed dust jackets with the cover photo instead of the photo on the hard cover.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • My computer broke and i lost all files including ITunes. what happens to all the stuff purchased already. will this appear in itues when i download it agian? how can i save the music on my ipod and transfere it over to the new itunes?

    my computer broke and i lost all files including ITunes. what happens to all the stuff purchased already. will this appear in itues when i download it agian? how can i save the music on my ipod and transfere it over to the new itunes?

    Unfortunely, all movies and songs purchased in iTunes will be lost...you'll have to purchase them again! Any applications you've purchased, you can download again for free.
    Music Rescue is a program you can use to transfer any and all data (music, movies, pictures..) from your iPod to your computer, and iTunes.

  • If I uninstall iPhotos to reinstall it, what happens to all my photos?

    If I uninstall iPhotos to reinstall it, what happens to all my photos?

    Nothing. The photos are in the library and uninstalling iPhotos should have no impact on the library.
    Having said that a backup of the library is a good idea

  • TS1702 what happened to all of my purchased books in the iBook library?

    What happened to all of my purchased books in iBook? When I go to store and purchased the message now says none available for download. I did have a lot.

    Basically, the computer thinks the music is 'lost'. Follow the prompts and try to locate it. It should navigate to the files and redraw the links which should make that pop up go away

    What does it mean that MobileMe Mail is no longer available in iCloud, when you switch? What happens to all one's previous mail? How is/ is all ones mail transfered?

    You may be able to re download past purchases, read here > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you delete purchases, they are no longer stored in iCloud.

  • What happened to all the Fetaures!!!??

    What happened to all of the video effects that you used to be able to use? It seems that all you can do now is make a plain old video. Boring.
    Hey apple what did you do that for?! Usually software gets better in new versions but this is a huge step back! Maybe i just can't find them but that's just as bad. if they are there they should be easy to find (thogh I don't think they are.)
    I'm losing some respect for apple because of stunts like this.

    I still don't know why they had to dumb down the program so people could post little movies...you can still do that with the original iMovie.
    Apple had found that many iLife users were not using iMovie, some would argue that iMovie 06 became "too good". Others will say that many of the features of iMovie 06 made it hard for beginners to learn, so iMovie 08 is usually easier for the absolute beginner.
    When iLife 08 is installed, all of the old applications are automatically deleted EXCEPT iMovie 06, because Apple WANTS you to have it. Most owners of iLife 08 I know use iMovie 06. (I use both iMovie 08 and iMovie 06.)
    If you like iMovie 06 better, as many do, you can continue to use it. I find that it works perfectly with my Mac Pro and the latest Mac OS.
    The Web site below has a good comparison of Apple video products.
    http://www.geethree.com/slick/imovie8.html
    iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)

    iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 is a terrific combination.
