Pasting clip to different track not working
Just trying a simple task that doesn't seem to work correctly. I want to copy a clip on track one, and paste it to track two. I have tried all combinations of changing source and destination controls. Clip always pastes to track one, not track two as intended. What am I missing?
Thanks.
Tom
Depending on the version of FCE you;re using, copy and pasting functions are not controlled by the destination track settings but by the autoselect buttons. The lowest autoselected track will be the track the material will paste to.

Copy and paste clips in different tracks
Hi everyone!
Since i upgrade from premiere pro to CS4, some easy stuff like copying and pasting my clip from one track to another one does't work.
When a select a clip in my timeline then i hit CTRL+C then i select another video track and hit CTRL+V instead of copying the clip in the selected video track, it just copy it back in the same track it was before.
I know, it's not such a big deal but i fouded it really useful so if anyone know how to do that it would really help me out.
Thanx a lot for all your response
genHi Jim,
Thank you for you'r answer.
Like as you said, i've been targeting the track and only one track at a time but i'll start by downloading the update 4.1 and see what happen. I'll let you guys know it it fix my problem.
Thanx again,

Transitions on clips on different tracks?
Hello
Is there a way of putting transitions between clips on different tracks or do I have to continue doing what I do currently a cut the tracks together on one track and then add transitions.
Many Thanks

In case your question isn't about technique, but rather of functionality - i.e.. can you get FCP to do such-and-such - then yes, you can place transitions across multiple tracks (and edit points) via the keyboard shortcut for the default transition (Command-T) or the Menubar (Effects > Video Transitions > ... ). Dragging from the Effects tab, unfortunately, won't work for multiple edit points.
Of course, you'll have to select those edit points, either via Command-clicking or using the Edit Selection Tool, and not the clips.
Even then, this is not a perfect solution in terms of how transitions will be sequenced (you might find yourself having to adjust transition alignment and/or clip lengths) but I just wanted to cover all the bases. -
Clip inspector in imovie not working properly - when I select a picture (in project library) - and select clip adjustment it tells me that I need to select one or more clips to view Inspector tools and when I select a movie clip and then click on audio adjustments the audio adjustment appears as a speaker icon and I don't know how to get to the various audio options? It was working fine one minute and then I seemed to lose the functionality. Also editing a photo in a photo or getting rid of ken burns effect etc does not seem to work. help
Can anyone shed any light on this as I am having the same problem? One minute it works fine, the next you get the error message above.
Many thanks. -
How do I paste a screen capture? Edit-paste or command-V do not work.
How do I paste a screen capture? Edit-paste or command-V do not work. Tom
how did you take the screenshot?
if you used a key combo like command+shift+ a number it will be saved as a file on your desktop
you need to add control* to whatever key combination you pressed to put it on your clipboard
*sorry for saying shift before i meant control -

My music will not play after it gets to a certain volume. It works fine if i turn it up loudly however when i turn it down past a point it will not work and the music wont play.
If in settings, music, volume limit is off then restart your phone first. Hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up.

Creating merged clips from the timeline not working, any advice?
I am syncing HDV video captured with guide audio, with four track audio recorded onto a Hard Disk Recorder. I need to sync in the timeline as there is not always a clap, but there is plenty of guide sound with the picture. I want to make a merged clip that I can then work with.
I bring everything in - sync it - and highlight everything but find that the link command is dimmed, it is not available.
The 4 track audio, and the video with guide sound both come in to the timeline already linked so I tried unlinking them when I first paste them into the timeline and making them independent clips, before I synced them together but that made no difference. The linking tool (Modify-Link) is dimmed and thus when I drag them into the browser they become many different files, instead of one merged clip. Can anyone suggest a reason why this is not working for me?
I'm running Final Cut Pro 5.0.4
thanks very much..I think I can answer my own question. It seems that several separate files were made in the audio but only one take made in the video, and FCP will not allow the clips to be linked if I'm trying to link one take of video with three files of audio (pasted onto the timeline one after the other under the video). But If I cut the video and link the segments one at a time then I can merge the clips independently. It's not ideal but it makes sense.

Copying clips to different tracks
This seems to be a beginner's issue, but anyway: when I copy a clip in a sequence and want to paste it on a different track, the clip always ends up on the track I copied from.
Changing the destination track before pasting doesnot work with me.
The same thing happens when I paste the clip in another sequence.
Is there a hidden pref or setup that can make it work?C'mon Bogie! You and I both know < </div>
Actually, Patrick, I freely admit I do not know anything about AutoSelect's operations and here's why:
With AutoSelect activated, your designations for destination and selection tracks are overridden by invisible, behind-the-interface, logic parameters. There is no indication which tracks are activate. The only visible indicators in the timeline, the user-selected destinations, are invalidated by AS. You must remember the logical progressions AutoSelect uses to determine where your tracks are going to end up. If AutoSelect knows where they're going, why isn't there a visual indication?
Yes, some tracks light up if you have in/out points set. That is a higher editing function not required or even desired by lots of folks like me who just need to cut-paste without having to remember invisible priorities. It's lame programming, a bad idea that remains unfinished. For many users, AutoSelect just gets in the way of enjoying FCP by obscuring basic operations and overriding user decisions.
FCP includes non-features that assume the operator is an idiot. I'm impatient; I'm not an idiot. I live with these hassles and I resent the presumptuousness of the design team. AutoSelect bites; I just turn it off, but Media Manager remains inexcusably flawed.

Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp not working
The Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool does not work - it is greyed out after copying an image. I'm currently running Acrobat Pro 10.1.4 on OSX 10.8, but the problem has also existed in earlier versions of Acrobat Pro and OSX.
I've reported the bug to Adobe more than once, but it's never been fixed. There are a couple of reports of the problem in the forums, but no solutions. I'm posting again in hopes that Adobe sees in and responds, or that someone has found a solution, work around or alternative method of pasting images.
Thanks.The clipboard in Acrobat seems to work differently that one might expect, at least that is my experience on Win systems. You might try to print the image to a PDF and then select the image in the new PDF and see if that is available for the copy. I just tried both the copy and paste and the and the create stamp from clipboard in AA8 and it worked fine, even from the Windows clipboard. Is the stamp tool greyed out all together, or just the copy from clipboard option? Are you sure there is an image in the clipboard (easy to forget at times)?

Data Tracking not working as expected
Hi,
I have created a report on a universe which is based on a BEx Query. When I run the WebI report in InfoView saved data shown, I then select tracking and select the current data (fixed) as the reference data. I then enter a key date for the data (which effively looks at data at a point in time) and the data changes but the changes are not marked. However, the reference date at the bottom of infoview is the saved data date.
I then refresh the data again and change the key date to a different date and changes are shown based on the data which I refreshed in the report NOT the saved data. I have had a look at the bottom of infoview and the data tracking reference date changed to the REFRESHED data. I then refreshed it again and the reference date remains as the refreshed data.
Just to re-confirm I did select use Fixed reference data.
Any ideas why I am having this problem?
ThanksHi,
The key date is in the SAP BW BEx Query which the universe is created on. The WebI report is then created on that universe. The key date changes the data.
I have just tried loading the data into SAP BW so that the data changes. I then went to the WebI report which is showing the old data and has tracking on by default when the report was created. the fixed data date at the bottom says the old date. I then refresh the new data is shown and the fixed data date changes....tracking is still not working as we expect.
Any ideas

Problem with multi take drum tracks not working with group selection editing
HI All
Ive recently tracked drums into using 7 mics and doing multiple takes layered on top of each other, the 7 takes belong to the same group and i have enabled group editing in the settings.
I think i changed the comp options at the end of the track and as a result audio tracks 1 and 2 edit between takes together fine. I.e. when i choose say take 5 with track it does the same selection for track 2.
Tracks 3-7 work in the same way fine, im just wondering if anyone knows how to get them as a complete group again so that when i choose take 5 for example on the one audio track, it will make the same selection for all of them!
thanksColin,
I did a multi camera edit of Act 1 of a taped performance and all went well. Moved on to Act 2, which ran longer and each camera needed a tape change. So I matched the clips from each camera on each video track and tried to move on to the sync & then create a multi camera sequence stage of the project. That's when I hit a road block. I could not sync the four video tracks. So I consulted Adobe's on line help and this was all I could find about my predicament:
Note: Adobe Premiere Pro uses an overlay edit when synchronizing clips. Take care not to overwrite adjacent clips if you have multiple clips on the same track.
So what was I to do next? I found your post and now know exactly what to do. Thanks for a great explaination and saving me a lot of head scratching.
Why couldn't Adobe explain it as well?
Thanks,

Ducking music-track not working in preview
Tried ducking a music-track in several clips, but couldn't get it to work reliable. On the first clip it worked, on others volume level of the music-track stayed the same, whatever value I've set the ducking slider to.
After much experimenting and browsing the web, I found the following post by Winston Churchill:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6636047
He recommended to export the clip and check the final result. And in fact, the music level followed the setting in the exported movie.
So this is a bug in iMovie08. While it is not a big issue, if you know the ducking works on export, it can drive you nuts, if you rely on iMovies preview mode and can't get it to work.
And what makes me wondering even more, that this post is from Feb 18, 2008 and the bug is still present in June 2008.
Peterhi there
i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone. so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help. -
Keyboard and tracker not working

Have tried forced shutdown a couple of times but nothing happens
Any ideas? The mac forums are saying I need to reinstall the OS but I don't have a CD drive ( yet!)
DIt is a common fault with new Mac Air. I had to bring it to an Apple store to get fixed. They did it for free.
