Opening sequence from one project to another

I'm in a project and want to import/open a sequence from another project into the current one...can't remember how to do it??
Cath

No, just make sure you are in the correct project that you want to close, or if you have multiple projects open, Control - click on the Project tab you want to close and save and choose "Close Tab" from the drop down menu. Only that project will close and save.

Copy part of a sequence from one project into another?

I want to bring a sequence from none project into another. Do I need to import the files into the bin in new project? Or is there a shorter way?
(This was what I was trying to do in my last post when it all went south. I'll post it there too)

I have brought an old sequence from a FCE project into FCP, and then copied them into a new( final) sequence, and there's a problem. Some--but not all--of the video files are very wide. Can I correct or do I need to re-import the original files fron the Hard drive?
By the way, you've pulled my fat out of the fire a few times. Thanks.

How to copy sequence from one project to another

I have a corrupt project file. My DIT on set opened many files in Resolve and afterwards created a PP for me organizing all the takes etc. So, when I opened his Premiere Pro project, Speed Grade was the default software to open the Premiere project. So I forced it to open the project with PP 2014. I edited an entire 45 commercial and made all sorts of speed changes lens flares etc. However, my system crashed, sputtered and dropped frames like mad. I spent the entire week going down the wormhole thinking my mac had graphic card issues or my raid system was at fault...a total nightmare. I spent endless time on support with Adobe and Apple. So now Im close, I just need to salvage my edit and get the sequence assocatied again win a new and clean p[roject. Ive tried exporting sequence but it crashes. Thoughts?

In Media Browser, find the problematic project. You can either drag it into the new project, in which case you'll have the option of importing the whole project or only selected sequences, or double-click the project file and then select the sequences you want to import. You can also select clips and other assets to import, but you need to do so only if those assets are not used in a sequence because importing a sequence automatically adds all assets that are used therein.

If I move a picture from one project to another in aperture why doesn't the jpeg change folders if all my pictures are referenced?

I started importing all my pictures into Aperture and have been debating whether to use a managed or referenced library. I'm leaning toward referenced, but before import everything that way, I do a couple of "test drives".
In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't. Anyone know why? Is there a way to make this happen? Is it bad that I want this to happen? Should I just use a managed library. I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
Any thoughts?

In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't.
Mark, Aperture does not store the originals organized by project, but by the date of the Import Session. So moving an image to a different project will not change, were the original file is stored.
This has a big advantage for backing up the originals. If they never move or change, you do not have to backup the originals other than directly after importing, if your library is referenced. And even incremental backups of a managed library are quicker.
Is there a way to make this happen?
You can always use the command "File > Relocate" to move the original files anywhere you want.
Is it bad that I want this to happen? Should I just use a managed library. I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
If it is bad, will depend on why you want to have control of your originals. If you just want to know where they are, it is o.k., or if you don't have enough space on the drive with the library and need to split the library across several drives. But it would be bad to move, edit, or access the referenced originals in any way. Let Aperture do the handling, or you will be risking broken references.
Aperture has several buil-in ways to show you the original: The "M" key will switch the Browser to the original, "File > Export > Original" will give you an exact copy of the original, or you can relocate the file to another folder. I simply open the aperture Library in iPhoto, when I want to view my managed originals. iPhoto has a command "File > Reveal in Finder > Original" that will show you also the managed originals in the "Masters" folder inside the Aperture/iPhoto Library package.

Copy tracks from one project to another

(Hopefully, I'm just missing something obvious. Programs like Final Cut Pro and PhotoShop make it very easy to have multiple projects open and copy and paste between them.)
I frequently copy tracks I like from one project to another. Although it's possible to do, it seems a given that Logic doesn't not like to have more than one project open at a time. This complicates it a bit, but I just copy the track I want, close the current project and open the new one.
I wish in the edit menu or in the track drop-down menu there was a straight forward "Copy Track" option. Since there isn't, I just select the whole track (which is essentially all the regions) and copy and then paste into new project. The problem is that it brings the content over fine, but not the track info (name, etc.)
Is there some better way to accomplish this? I don't want to export MIDI tracks as audio, so the Export option doesn't work.
Thanks,
Dave

I looked at the video again and unless they did some editing in FCP (which would have to be the case), the following frame after selecting the regions shows both gone simultaneously.
It is quite possible of some FCP editing but as I said first you can do that very fast using two neighbor keys so it can look as one magic shot. The screen capture tools use low FPS settings for media capturing about 15 fps for example.
I tend to occasionally put a blank track between other tracks as a separator (been doing this since the Master Tracks Pro days).
I think you can try a little trick for doing that. You can create a "Dummy" empty region inside a folder track for example, and use the folder track(s) as separator(s). I have not tried that yet, cause I'm away of my Logic but it must work this way.

--Any way to copy/paste clips from one project to another w/o LOSING TRANSITIONS...??

I have CS5...
I'm trying to speed up render/export time. I have multiple edited video's in about 15 different projects.
I had a couple video's within one project and rendered the work area - consisting of 4 video's...then exported. It was much faster than just going to straight exporting so I wanted to do the same with all the other video's.
Pull everything into one project - render first - and export from there but premiere doesn't copy transitions from one project to another. Is there any way to get it to copy/paste transitions??
Thanks

exported regularly and took 2hrs 50min's for each video....then rendered and exported - took prob around 2hrs total - including rendering/exporting.
That seems unlikely. If anything, the separate render/export should take slightly longer (though not that much) as you may also have to transcode the preview files (depending on your preview codec) during the render, as well as decode them for the export. Besides adding an additional layer of compression, it also adds time. Here's what I mean.
Export only:
1. Decode original media
2. Render new frame based on sequence, effects, titles, etc.
3. Transcode that new frame to the export codec of choice.
Render (1-3) /Export (4-5)
1. Decode original media.
2. Render new frame based on sequence, effects, titles, etc.
3. Transcode that new frame to the Preview codec (if anything less than Uncompressed, this adds time and potentially degrades quality)
4. Decode the rendered frame (if not Uncompressed, which adds time)
5. Transcode that (decoded) render frame to the export codec of choice.
So you see, the render first process has two extra steps which add time, one of which could also introduce additional artifacts (depending on your preview codec).

Move Photos from One Project to Another

Is there a way to move photos and transition effects from one project to another?
Using iMovie08
Thanks

@bshig
more often than not, i seem to import the images into a new project, which i don't want.
I spotted and 'solved' this one last night. I don't have Aperture in front of me just now, so I'm writing this from memory...
Open your Preferences. Look for, I think, an Import tab. There's a preference for setting the default target project which has two options (from a pop-up menu). The options are "New Project" and something like "Selected Project". Changing that over should solve your problem...

Thanks for the reply.
For now assuming that you are using Premiere Elements 11, 12/12.1, or 13/13.1 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit....
I am not sure that Left and Right channel audio editing is the answer to your DVD echo issue, but the opportunities for audio channel editing in Premiere Elements would include (before burn to)
1. Audio Mixer - Balance.
2. fx Effects/Audio Effects
Please refer to https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/using/effects-reference.html#audio_effects
for explanations of the Audio Effects.....
Balance
Channel Volume
Left Fill, Right Fill
Invert
Swap Channels
And, there is the free audio editor, Audacity Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder for channel editing.
Do you hear the echo before the burn to disc?
Is any of the Timeline video content from your cell phone? If so, did you have any issues with a variable frame rate when you were preparing the video in Edit area for burn to in Publish+Share?
What audio effects, if any, did you apply to the Timeline audio content prior to burn to?
Please consider.

Moving Titles from one project to another

I want to combine several iMovie projects into one, in order to create a single DVD via iDVD. The projects are fairly simple - no music, just video, dissolves, and some text.
When I select all, and then copy and paste from one project to another, the titles do not transfer. The background for the titles - i.e. black spaces - do transfer, but not the text. It seems there's no simple way to move titles from one project to another. Is there a solution or workaround, or do I simply need to create new titles in my new, combined project? Thanks.

The simplest way would be to use multiple movies in iDVD. iDVD handles multiple movies easily and will help you set up a menu if you want. Just share your movies to the Media Browser. Then open iDVD and drag them into your iDVD project from the Media Browser in iDVD.

Can you copy custom To Do List settings from one project to another?

Using RH9. We created a number of To Do List entries for one of our Robohelp projects that we now want to use in all of our RH projects (File > Project Settings > Manage To Do List for Robohelp Project). Is it possible to copy these entries from one project to another? Or do we need to re-create the list of To Do tasks for each one of our 20+ projects?

Hi there
The "To Do" list items appear to be stored directly in the ProjectName.XPJ file. So theoretically it would be possible to copy them by opening one XPJ using Windows Notepad, copying them, then opening the target XPJ and pasting. However, this will likely cause a disparity between the XPJ and the .CPD. So before actually opening the project where you are copying them into, you would want to close the project and delete the CPD. Then modify the XPJ and re-open the project. A fresh CPD should then be baked up and things should be in sync.
You might also want to submit a Wish Form to ask for an easier way to transfer custom lists. (link is always in my sig)
Cheers... Rick

Moving image from one project to another

Hi all. I'm sorry if this is simple to do, but I can't figure it out. I have recently purchased Aperture 3 and am trying to figure out how to move an image from one project to another. I had several photos on my camera, and imported them this morning into it's own project. Now, I would like to take some of those photos and put them in my "family" project, and some into my "dogs" project, etc. When I open up the new project, I can't find where I can move them to another project. I have to assume this is doable, but I can't figure it out.
Thanks in advance.
Dale.

Sorry to be a complete idiot, but here's my issue. When I open the original project, and then find the image that I want to move, I am unable to see any other projects (in browser view), so I have nowhere to drag them to. I hope that makes sense and you can help.
Thanks again.
Dale.

Editing audio from one project to another

I'm trying to build a DVD project of different musical performances in Final Cut Pro X. The Mac I'm working with crashes every 30 minutes regardless of what I'm doing so, instead of building a monstrous timeline with two hours worth of performances on it (which will never save given the crash issues), I'm trying to build it by each song (4-6 minutes each).
The format is: opening billboard (with performer and song listed) --> fade into performance --> performance --> fade out of performance. If I were fading the audio out after each song, it would be simple but I'm trying to keep some of the audience track going under the next billboard so it blends better. I can't seem to cut the audio at the end of the fade out and apply it to the next song without continuing to build onto the same timeline which, due to the crash issues, doesn't help me.
Is there an audio work around that I'm missing? All I want to do is fade the audio a little past the fade effect, copy it and apply it to the beginning of the next song. Anyone?

Just ran into the same problem myself... while I get you CAN export the audio, then import it and use anyway you like I don't think that is the point of the original poster's question.
The voice-over clip has unique properties and as such I (and it looks like other users) would like to be able to "copy & paste" a voice-over clip from one project to another. Alternatively if I could drag and drop the voice-over clip into my Event that would be great too. Doesn't seem like an unreasonable request. Right now the famed Apple ease-of-use is missing for those of us who have recorded voice over elements we want to use in more than one project.
Had I known iMove would not allow sharing of voice over clips within iMovie I would have recorded my voice-over clips in another application and imported them all as audio-clips. Which certainly defeats the point of the inclusion of voice-over in iMovie.
Any solutions that work within the app without an export/import required?

How to import part of a sequence from a project to another project ?

I am having some problem figuring out how to do this:
I have an opening sequence which consist of about 20 clips using 7 video tracks.
Now I want to use this opening sequence onto a new project. How do I copy this opening sequence onto a new project with the 20 clips on exactly the same position in the 7 video tracks ?
NB: I know how to copy a single clip or a single photo from one project to the other project (I just open the 2 projects & I have 2 tabs) but I am at a lost as to how to copy sequence from one project to the other.
Thanks
Thanks

Drag the original sequence in the browser into your new sequence, as if you were adding a normal clip. This is called nesting sequences.
I see, so I am learning something new here.
When I drag the original sequence in the browser into the new sequence in the timeline, there is only one clip instead of 20 clips. But it plays as if all the 20 clips were there.
Does that mean that I cannot edit the 20 clips in the new sequence ?
Thanks

Can't MOVE images from one project to another: must not understand

Greetings,
I have two questions as a result of aperture not working the way that I have read on forums etc. and am wondering what i am doing wrong
1) How do I MOVE images from project to project without duplicating masters or versions
2) how do I delete versions
All of my files are referenced.
*1) moving from project to project*
I have a blue folder called "NEFs." In it, I have a default project where I just dump all of my images called "00 dump." After I dump them, I organize into other projects. So, I do the following:
• I create a new project called "2008 Thanksgiving" inside the NEFs blue folder making it a sibling to "00 dump"
• I go back to "00 dump" select all the images that were shot over thanksgiving, and drag to the "2008 thanksgiving" folder. The images transfer fine, but when I go back to "00 dump" I see that the images have NOT actually moved, they are now sitting in both projects. How can this be? I thought that if I move images from project to project then I am actually moving the master, not replicating a version? That leads me to my next dilemma
*2) how do I delete versions?*
Now that I have replicated photos in my "2008 Thanksgiving" project, I want to delete them since I see them still sitting in "00 dump." I do the following:
• select the "2008 Thanksgiving" project
• select a number of images
• press command + delete (this is the only way to delete a file as far as I can tell
• popup comes up explaining that if I delete this file it will delete the master too and the reference file. So, that's exactly what it does.
Deleting the referenced file is fine for many junk images, but in this case, I just want to delete the copied version that seems to be in two projects now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really love a full understanding of how this structure works.
-i

When you drag images and the drop target is an actual little yellow project box (not a folder, and album or anything else) the images move from one project to another, if your drop target is not the actual project but something else within another project all you do is cause the version to show up there, nothing is duplicated.
To delete a version or versions selected just use command-delete. This gets rid of the actual version not just removes it from the current album view. If it happens to be the last version of that master it will get rid of the master as well.
