On timecode break: Make new clip NOT WORKING

My footage was recorded on a Sony Z1U in HDV, my deck is a Sony HVR-M10U, computer is a Dual 2ghz with 10.4.11 install and I am working in Final Cut Pro 6.0.2.
I have selected create new clip on time code break. When the tape gets to a timecode break, the deck just stutters. It can never get through the first timecode break.
I have about 50 tapes that need to be log and captured and I would really like to figure this out.
Thanks in advance.

I have had this problem with Sony consumer HDV cameras.
You can research this discussion list to find the specific answers to this problem but basically when capturing HDV (unlike capturing SD) footage a timecode break will result in either a "Stream Error" or time code break. In either case the capture stops.
Why this happens is beyond me--in my case is seems to be intermittent and correlated with solar sunspots.
One work around is to use an Easy Setup choice called "non-controllable device". Search your FCP PDF manual and it will explain where it can be found and how it is used.
Have you tried to fix the usual suspects: clean your camera recording heads, use new tapes, lots of prayer?

When capturing FCP makes new clips

When I am capturing from a tape, FCP creates a new clip every time I pressed stop and then start again on the camera to change my shot. There are no time code breaks in the tape but I don't know how FCP is creating a new clip every time I change my angles.
Please help.

My crystal ball says you shot HDV ... and this is how FCP works with HDV capture, because thats how your camera works. The problem is that every time you start/stop recording in camera you are creating a new and separate clip that is stored on tape, even though the timecode is contiguous the clips are separate MPEG2 data structure entities. During HDV capture FCP is just copying the MPEG2 data structures stored on tape onto your hard disc (and wrapping that data up as a Quicktime Movie in the process) and every time the it encounters a new clip in the data stream then thats what is created on your hard disc.
If you do not want this to happen then you can use an I/O device to facilitate capturing your footage from your camera via a video output instead of via firewire. Matrox make very affordable I/O hardware with some great features ... check out the MXO2 Mini. Blackmagic's Intensity card may not be as feature rich but offers superb value for money if you are working on a desktop system only.
Hope it helps explain things

Click the lock to make changes is not working. Lion 10.7.2

I cannot make any preferences' changes that require clicking on the lock. When I try to click on the lock it simply does nothing and remains locked. I've tried doing a permission repair using disk utility and I cannot create another admin account because that requires opening the lock in Users&Groups. Also, when I login into root, then the lock is also locked.
The problem began when I updated to Lion.
I've had no luck finding a solution in forums.

i have the same issue,
summary : at mine clicking the lock at any kind of program does not work at all, not working in system pref,
not working at ''get info'' window, not working in any other kind of lock, i tried defragging via idefrag but that couldn't work because it needed a lock to be opened as well, i can't move my files to some folders, getting the ''The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code 100022).''
plus when i log out, cannot log in because when i type my password it accepts it but then nothing happens, i had a root account as well but i can't enter it and can't create again because of the lock, but when i log in with guest account(no pass required) i can make changes via clicking the lock and filling in admin username and password in system preferences. and i created a new admin account in guest account by filling admin info for authorization in system preferences > users&groups , set no password, logged out but could not log into that account as well. my system is set to login to my account when the system starts.
so this is what i get with the clean display in console, opening system pref, then clicking users&groups, then clicking the lock. this is system.log

Button w/in movie clip not working

I know this question has been raised before and it usually
just boils down to using the frame #'s and labels. But, even with
that it is not working.
I have a map of the US and when each state is rolled over I
would like a menu to appear - this menu is a list with several
options and all of the options are buttons. I have it set up so
that each state is its own MovieClip and each has an invisible
button over it for the hit area and the menu to appear. (i didn't
want it to be simply when it rolls over the state movie clip
because the hit would be square, covering other states and causing
a mess of pop up menus)
Anyway, the menu pops up fine, but the buttons within do not
work. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong? Thanks Much!!!!
wi_mc.stop(); // wi_mc is the state movie clip
wi_btn.onRollOver = function(){ //wi_btn is the invisible
button
wi_mc.gotoAndStop(15); //frame 15 is where my menu resides
wi_btn.useHandCursor = false;
wi_mc.onRollOut = function(){
wi_mc.gotoAndStop(1);

Alright, I've made adjustments to how I've got it all set up.
I've made the menu it's own swf file, (seeing as how I'm going to
have 48 of them in total I figured it was less messy to have each
as their own file). Anyways... here's the current problem and I'm
hoping someone has a good explaination for why this would be
happening...
on my main file I have 2 invisible buttons - 1 is calling the
movie to load when rolled over and the other is calling the movie
to unload when a roll-out occurs. RollOver works great - fully
functional menu shows up. Roll out, however, is having some issues.
The invisible button is in the same location of the menu, same size
etc. so that when the user rolls away from this the menu should
"unload".
For some reason it's acting as if the hit area for the roll
out is off. I did a trace to find out where it's saying the rollout
areas are and the first is actually when I roll onto it, then only
again when i roll out from the left side of the graphic. I've tried
deleting the button and creating a new one but the same thing is
happening.
Any ideas for a very confused person trying to complete this
simple task of unloading a swf via rollout? MUCH appreciated!!!!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("ExternalSWFHolder",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
var SWFLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
wi_btn.onRollOver = function(){
SWFLoader.loadClip("wi_menu.swf", ExternalSWFHolder);
wi_rollout.onRollOut = function (){
SWFLoader.unloadClip(ExternalSWFHolder);

New Macbook not working properly?

Well I recentely recieved my new Mac Book about 3 weeks back now and I recentely have came to find that my z key does not work when I'm on Mac OS X. But if I run bootcamp and go on windows the "Z" key on the keyboard works, the thing is aswell when I press it on Mac OS X it makes like a beep noise and nothing happen. Can someone please help me because although the Z key isn't used alot it is still no good not having it working.
Thanks alot,
Adam =]

Sorry for double posting but I have more information.
When I use the keyboard viewer and press Z it actually shows it being pressed on screen it just doesn't appear in text box's. Also I clicked on google search (randomly to try typing) and I didn't type I just pressed the keys using the keyboard viewers and when I pressed Z on the keyboard viewer it didn't come up so it's definately nothing wrong with the hardware it has to be something wrong with the programmes or something. Also I can write Z when I hold down shift + Z but other than that I can't use the cap lock to write it.
Oh this is all very confusing please help
Adam =[

Select between clips not working

I toggled something and am not sure what I did. I have been selecting between clips all day long, and command-T to add cross dissolve. Now I don't get the hourglassed shaped cursor to indicate that it is selecting (i.e. I cant select the line between two adjacent clips. If I copy to a new timeline it works. What did I toggle?

Hi:
Stupid question:
Did you try saving your work, quitting and restarting FCP?
Thanks

New RAM not working

I have a macbook pro 13 inch from mid 2010, with an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz. I recently got a 1 TB WD Scorpio Blue for it that made a loud buzzing noise and after having the OS installed, wouldn't boot properly. I will be exchange this drive for a new one of the same type because I know it works since it worked in my sister's MBP mid 2009.
I also got some 2x4G of mushkin RAM (996644) for the computer. This is not apple certified but fits all the required specifications. The guy at the store told me that apple approved memory is the same thing just tested on a mac giving them an excuse to charge mor for it so this saved me six bucks. I tried installing both the hard drive and the ram and I got a POST error of one beep which means a RAM problem. I reinstalled the ram and instead of a POST error I got a black screen with no sounds. The LED was on. I put the old RAM in and it worked letting me install the OS. The hard drive had problems so I took it out, put the old one back in and the new RAM in. Same black screen.
Is there any solution here, or is the RAM defective and should I get a new chips?

If the old RAM works and the new does not, it makes no sense to keep it. The two most reliable sources for MBP RAM are OWC and Crucial.
Sometimes inexpensive RAM does work but as you can see what you have is a lemon. To a degree the sales person was correct, biut only that Apple does charge a lot for the RAM they sell. I suggest spend a bit more and get the afore mentioned RAM. If you search Amazon.com, the Crucial prices are quite good,
The RAM specifications for a 2010 MBP are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
Ciao.

Adobe Support: Please Read, New Flash Not Working

Adobe, please read this. My Flash player is not working and I would be happy to help you troubleshoot. I have a completely fresh install of Windows XP on a Dell Laptop and the new Flash Player is not working. I am in the tech field so I will understand most of your requests...Here is my situation.
The problem began just after Christmas when I returned home from holidays and tried to watch videos, which I do all the time for both work and pleasure. Videos would not play in a watchable manner...I could hear audio but video was completely choppy and unwatchable. I researched and researched and implemented many suggestions but to no avail. Thus, I COMPLETELY rebuilt my system from scratch. (I needed to do this anyway since it had been 2 years.)
After the rebuild, on a completely fresh install of XP on a Dell D410 laptop (that was playing all videos just fine a week ago), I installed Firefox, went to youtube which prompted me to install Flash, and then had the exact same problem that I had before the complete reinstall of everything. There are scarecely any variables here other than the Dell Laptop, a standard Windows XP SP2 build, Firefox and Flash.
I think I have narrowed this problem down to two things. One, the new version of Flash.
It's choppy on youtube AND it's choppy on megavideo, the other place where I watch a lot videos.
I then tried on IE, which also prompted for the new version of flash, and also had the same problem. Chrome--same result.
However, this problem cannot be a universal problem with Flash otherwise nobody would be able to watch any videos onlline.
This leads me to the second problem, which a complete hypothesis but it seems to be the only thing left: my Dell laptop.
I have noticed that some of the other folks with reported problems, who mention their system type, are also using Dell laptops. Mine is an older d410, but as I said, it was running every video just fine up until a week or so ago when all of the sites forced me to install the new version of Flash. Most Dell laptops use a common video driver set and this is what is leading me to this conclusion.
So, could this be a problem with the new Flash and Dell laptops (or systems that use a common video driver)? As a reference point, my "display adapter" says "Mobile Intel (R) 915GM/GMS,910GML Express Chipset Family".
Viewing videos is part of my job (and entertainment) and I cannot do anything right now.
Someone out there...please hlep. Adobe, where are you? We are here providing you with all of the information that you need....

Thank you for this response. Apparently, Adobe does not provide support since this is a free product.
However, Adobe, I need your help.
In summary, I have a fresh build of Windows XP, SP2 on a Dell D410 and the Flash player does not work. This affects at least 50% of the sites I visit. Right now, I simply have the Flash Player uninstalled and can surf the net rapidly. Once I install it, I am back to a crawl and still cannot affectively watch any videos (they all have extreme video choppiness but the audio is fine).
I need your help, Adobe. Everything was working fine until 2 weeks ago. It is unfair of you to distribute a product like this, force everyone to use it, and have it not work for some of us.
So far, this free product has cost me hundreds of dollars as a good part of my job is reviewing videos.
Many have suggested that I buy a new computer to fix the problem.
Is this really necessary?
Adobe, I am a man in need...please help me...
(PS: I am not the only one. I have also entered my problem here http://www.google.pl/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=6039f438d085295f&hl=en&fid=6039f43 8d085295f00047c7e3182b625 to no avail.
And I have done more research than you can imagine. Here are a number of sites where people are reporting problems with Flash:
Streaming videos are choppy all the sudden.... - CPUs - CPU-Components How do I resolve choppy/jerky video in Firefox? - YouTube Help Videos are choppy, Audio distorted. - YouTube Help DIYnot.com > Youtube stopped working "JavaScript turned off" youtube is not working - YouTube Help Flash sound stopped working. | Ask MetaFilter Anyone have problems with Youtube freezing? - Software - Non-Gaming - Discussion Forum | Eurogamer YouTube videos freeze after a second - Google Chrome Help My Comments on Video Problem Flash Player 10 memory leak!! Graphics - Customized computer manufacturer graphics driver is detected AfterDawn.com: Guides: How to play FLV files Adobe Forums: Adobe Support: Please Read, New Flash... Adobe Forums: Flash Stopped working
Obviously, I have still not found an answer to my problem. Please help me.
Thx,
Richard)

New fonts not working in photoshop...

I have installed new fonts on my mac but they will not work in Photoshop.. can somoene help me? I don't know if I have done something wrong or need to take another step.. I am running CS4 and OS 10.6.4. The message I get when I try to use a font I recently installed is "Could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being intitalized." Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Most likely you have some corrupt fonts installed.
Try validating the fonts using FontBook to find the most obvious problems.

Macbook New Topcase Not Working

So after i figure out the problem i was having before in my previous discussion, i threw away the new topcase that was working completely fine for a few months and used an external mouse and keyboard til i could find another one.
Low and behold i bought a new black topcase,excited to finally have my frankenbook finally finished. Plugged it into the logic board, powered on fine..... and what do you know, the trackpad and keyboard do not work! The power button also refuses to work once it is on, only time it works is when i boot it up. I have looked into issues with new topcase's not working and that they need a new SMC firmware update.Tried downloading the update which my computer says i do not need as it is upto date
Macbook 2.4 ghz early 2008
4.1
1.3f1
Has anyone figured out how to fix this issue?
I have read that sometimes the connector on the logic board can become loose but i have checked it and all seems fine. Really annoying as there was no issues when i bought the logic board and new topcase and used it for month's, then the old issue before of my screen dying due to one of the pins under the topcase shorting something out. Then the topcase itself completely stopped working, now finally have a new topcase and the bloody thing will still not work!!
Only thing i am going to try out now is to buy a new cable that connects the topcase to the logic board and see if that helps... although the topcase was new anyway so the cable should work fine.
In hindsight i wish i just bought a used blackbook off ebay instead of building one myelf

Ok here is an update, formatted my Hard drive and tarted from scratch, installed Snow Leopard and after it had installed it said that it could not detect a keyboard at all. Could this be a Logic board issue then? I do not understand a the previous keyboard had worked fine but then screwed up, could this be a problem with the board and that the previous topcase was still functional?
Someone please help

Check for new mail not working on one account

For a number of months now I have been having trouble getting new mail. I have my Apple Mail 2.1 preferences set to check for new mail every minute and play a New Mail Sound when something arrives. This seems to be working for my earthlink POP account but not my dot.mac e-mail account. The only way to get new dot.mac e-mail on my G5 tower is to alternately click on the left most icons for the different incomming tray icons in my in box, then the InBox icon itself. I dont have to do that for my second e-mail account--an earthlink POP account, or on either account on my laptop. Also, When I do click on the specific in box for my dot mac account, it takes forever to load that new mail, and the activity monitor shows that it is caching every attachment that is already in my in box even though it is already old mail.
Also, Mail seems to be following Smart Mailboxes arbitrarily. For instance, I have a smart mailbox set up to display any incoming mail from someone in my Family Group from address book, however it seems to ignore about half of these, but display the other half accurately.
Anyone know whats going on or how to fix it so I dont have to mannually keep checking for new mail? Again, I have my preferences set to check for new mail every minute and to play a new mail sound, and new mail does work fine from my Earthlink POP account.
Thanks for your help.

If this happens to your .Mac account only, try rebuilding the mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox > Rebuild.

New USB not working in new macbook pro. What do I do?

I have just bought a brand new 16 GB USB stick for use with my 2 month old macbook pro. My mac is not recognising the presence of USB stick but I have checked and the USB works in the other family laptop which is a Toshiba. I have used other USB's with the mac so I know it is not just as simple as the ports are not working. Help!

For reasons unknown to me, your MBP does not like that USB device. I assume you have tried all available USB ports.
Ciao.

Button within a movie clip not working

Hiya,
I have a movie clip within my swf website that is basically
an icon that you roll over to produce the menu. The movie clip has
coding inside it to produce the rollover effect. This is as
follows:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
prevFrame();
this.onRollOver = function(){
rewind = false;
play();
this.onRollOut = function(){
rewind = true;
Whilst this coding works fine for this movie clip, for some
reason the buttons within the movie clip that appear as you
rollover them will not work when pressed. I am trying to get them
to navigate the main timeline, i.e. coding as follows:
on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndPlay("home")
_parent should be correct, I've tried it without and with
_parent._parent however still it has no effect. From what I can see
everything should be working fine.
Is there some reason why buttons will not work within this
sort of roll over effect movie clip?
Thanks for your help.

you can't assign mouse handlers to a parent movieclip and
expect a child movieclip to respond to mouse events: the parent
will intercept those events.
to remedy, either assign all your mouse handlers on the child
generation movieclips or use a hitTest() for one of the
generations.
