Plagued by drop frames - Part Deux! Can you guys help again?

Ok... I spoke too soon. The drop frame errors are back again! This time, I have documented when and where they happen and some "quirks" that go along with it.
1 - Problem happens even when RT is in Safe with frame rate and video quality set to low. Video clips have a 3 band color correction and proc amp filter engaged.
2 - Seems to happen when I add chan 3 and 4 a stereo music track. The track is converted to aiff in itunes and then placed into the capture scratch folder, then imported into a bin and placed on the timeline.
3 - One way to get the problem to "correct" itself is to click on to the desktop and then click back into FCP. The problem will correct itself but eventually freeze up again.
4 - As some members will attest, I have tried everything short of a full system restore. The drive media is captured to is a sata 73200 rpm drive (more than half full) that is on the lower "B" bus of the internal. The "a" bus is the OSX operating drive. No media is on it.
5 - I have trashed prefs, tweaked environmental settings and swung a dead cat at the tower. Same problem is intermittent. Just when I think I have done something that seems to fix the problem, it comes back usually when I add chan 3 and 4.
6 - I am capturing audio and video in the same file on the same drive. Should it be separated? Should drive be partitioned?
7 - What about "limit data rate" I heard it isn't needed unless on a network.
Should I call a priest or what?

Your configuration doesn't make sense - DV is 720x480 and 29.97 fps. But, having said that, it doesn't matter so much so long as your sequence settings match your clip settings. Or, to put it another way, if you up your settings to High (for Playback Quality) and Full (for Playback Frame Rate), do you get some type of render line? Green? Yellow? Orange?
After having skimmed through the previous thread you started, you just might be having some type of issue with how the files are (physically) written on your hard drive. The only surefire way to correct that is to copy your media files over to a third drive, use Disk Utility to wipe you media drive (format Mac OS Extended), then copy your media files back over your freshly formatted media drive. (and I know that's not a quick procedure but, hey, it beats throwing your G5 out of a window
Before you try that though, can you tell us what your real-time audio settings are in your User Preferences?

sync your phone to itunes, then it should say update available. I suggest doing a backup of your phone first prior to updating your phone.

That would be what information you want AT7T to have since they are not privy to your iTunes billing. It can be the same credit card if you wanted it to, you would just need to put the details in.

Can you guys help me find where did I make the mistake?

Hi guys...
I am working in two different frames, where in one of them I have a user input text field and besides I have a button that takes me to the next frame.
In the next frame I have the output box, but I dont get there what I typed in the input one.
Any help?

Thanks a lot!!!

You need to be mindful of when you assign the str value....
var str:String = txt_inp.text;
The way you have it as shown, it is going to assign the nothing that is in the textfield since that line will execute before any text gets assigned.
You would want to have that assignment done after the text in the textfield changes. You still need to declare the variable outside any function so that it can be available to frame two in terms of scope, but the assignment needs to happen in your textInputCapture function.
Also, using the TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT event will likely miss the mark as well since it triggers before the text is changed in the textfield, which will cause the text to be missing the last character entered. You should use the Event.CHANGE event instead.

Can you guys help me find a certain .plist?

one of our lovely contributors posted this to help me with my issue:
(i need to get photosmart studio to run on my friends computer because it is the only app he's familiar with, upon upgrading his computer to 10.6, he lost functionality of this app, upgrading from 10.4.11)
I tried to resolve this thru HP support, but never got past the level 1 reinstall BS. However, I did come up with a 'fix'.
By using Activity Monitor and Xcode Instruments I was able to determine that the excess cpu and memory was being consumed by a Studio thread responsible for Keyword Albums. I tried to 'turn off' Keyword Albums by deselecting the default albums in Studio Preferences, but this did not work. Finally I disabled Keyword Albums by using the plist editor to change the content of ~/Library/Preferences/com.hp.Photosmart.keywords.plist to this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>CustomKeywords</key>
<array/>
<key>Language</key>
<string>English</string>
</dict>
</plist>
Studio now functions normally except, of course, for Keyword Albums are disabled.
i can't find the photosmart.keywords .plist he is referring to, when i change the regular old hp.keywords plist nothing happens because upon application launch, it writes itself a new one.
maybe i'm doing this the wrong way? Changing a plist in the library folder with text edit and saving,
IS there a way to find other .plists that are in the application?
please someone help me, i need to disable keywords in photosmart studio so it can launch.
sorry for being such a newb
thanks

I think that's my post from ages ago. If you have ever run Studio the plist is in /Users/YOUR_USERID/Library/Preferences/com.hp.Photosmart.keywords.plist. However, ASFAIK Studio won't run at all on Snow Leopard.

I have problems with the size of the letter, when I put for example 3 pt it changes to 300.000 pt, and I don't know what to do. Plis HELP ME

niza,
You may try the list:
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

HT4528 My IPhone Bugged out/It is currently in the reset mode. I need to exchange all of my contacts from my Yahoo acct. to my new IPHONE. Can you please help me?

Hello ,
I purchased my IPHONE about 2 months ago. I am visiting family in DE & this tuesday it starting to go off & on by itself. Then the icons looked like they were floating . Then I could not call or text . The SIRI device would not work. Then it would shut down then the apple icon would reappear. I took it to a verizon dealer in Rehoboth DE & they said it BUGGED OUT/It is in a RESTORE MODE. It will not turn on. We could not transfer anny of my pics or contacts. I never even had a chance to back up the memory on ITUNES.
The tech @ Verizon said to contact APPLE to trouble shoot and try and transfer the contacts from my yahoo acct.
Can you please help?
Gina

set up your yahoo account in mail, contacts, calendars as an Exchange Account and you should be able to get your contacts from Yahoo from there.

My ipod touch is stuck on the 4.2.1 software, its a 3rd gen as well i was just wondering why i can not get the lastest update can you please help me with this issue

i have been having an issue with updating my ipod touch for some time now and i can not seem to get it to update to the lastest update. it is stuck on 4.2.1 software and i can not update it to 4.3 or any other ios software update. can you please help me to solve this issue.

It sounds like you actually have a 2G iPod Touch which can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. If it's an 8 GB iPod Touch it's definitely a 2G iPod Touch as there was never such a thing as a 3G 8 GB iPod Touch. See this article to help verify what generation iPod Touch you have.
