Problem changing region length

Hi all,
when i adjust the right end of an audio region logic moves painfully slowly, and it's v difficult to move the end point to the position i want because logic displays the process so poorly.
is anyone else having this problem.
is there some setting responsible for this?
is this something that is fixed in 7.2.1 (i'm still on7.1)
any help appreciated.
thanks,
s

I haven't seen this problem in 7.2.x. Mind you, I have anti-aliasing turned off as well, so you may want to try that.

Problem adjusting region length

Hi folks, I'm having trouble getting regions to the precise length of a bar. This has been driving me mad, I just can't figure it out.
I'm chopping up parts of a drum intro to use as a loop, and isolated a 1 bar stretch. I've set the tempo to roughly the right range and selected 'adjust region length to nearest bar/locators'. Only problem is, it doesn't do it accurately, and at the highest resolution zoom setting there is a fractional distance between the end of the region and the barline, even though the start of the region is exactly at the barline. Obviously this messes with the loop synchronising, but I can't get Logic to adjust the length precisely.
Is there something obvious I'm missing here? Any help would be massively appreciated!

Problem solved? It seems playing with the time and pitch machine algorithm fixes this - selected 'percussive' and that seems to do the trick. Not exactly intuitive though Apple!

My dvd player will not let me change regions, it just quits when i do, now its stuck on region 1. Any thoughts how i can solve this problem or get round it in some way?

My dvd player will not let me change regions, it says i have one more chance to change it, then it just quits when i do, now its stuck on region 1. Any thoughts how i can solve this problem or get round it in some way?

Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

Why are my region lengths changing?

Doing takes for a guitar solo yesterday, I had all my take folders on the same track. When I was doing my comping I noticed that some of the region lengths of takes further along in the song were changed. At first I thought I may have accidendally selected them all when I clicked on the track, but the same thing happened when I made sure I only had one take folder selected.
Is this a Logic 8 glitch, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for the added clarifications Noel. Can you perhaps explain to me how the behaviour of the color sampler in the info palette is actually desirable?
Let's look at my example again. When I am trying to make an adjustment and I'm looking at my color sampler targets, I _must_ have my adjustment layer selected. Target #1 is pointed over a white pixel. Regardless of which layer I have selected, that pixel is white. I can't imagine a scenario in which the readout should be anything other than 255,255,255. That's not a feature, that's a design mistake.
If I want to see, in the readout, the value of the background image's pixel, then I should hide the layer that contains that white shape. Then, that pixel is no longer white, and the color sampler readout should reflect that. Makes sense.
If you truly and honestly believe that users are interested in the color that is a result of compositing all the layers below (and including) the currently selected adjustment layer when they are plaing with the adjustment layer controls, then the UI must temporarily hide any layers above that color sampler as soon as I select the adjustment layer. This is the only correct UX design in that scenario - so that the color sampler once again reflects exactly what is "true" - namely the pixel color on the screen that it is sampling.
And if you re-read that last paragraph you will intuitively know that that would be crazy. I mean, there's no way that a user would want to have the UI hide any layers just because he's clicked on the Adjustment Layer - he probably wants to see the adjustment in the context of the entire composition. If he wanted to hide those other layers, he'd do it himself.
I urge you to reconsider this from the perspective of a real-world user and consider logging this as a bug. I just can't see any way that it isn't a mistake.

I cant change payment method in Apple Ipad, because it tells me bla bla u had problems with billing bla bla. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS with billing bla bla. WHY i cant change my payment card????????? WHY I CANNOT CHANGE REGION? FROM UK TO RUSSIAN?????

Cant change details, cant change region, cant download apps, cant change payment card, cant upload apps.

Apps are always associated with the Apple ID and password used to download or purchase them. If you have begun using a different Apple ID, when those old apps require an update, you will have to enter the old Apple ID and password that used use to originally download those apps.
You can stop this requirement by deleted those old apps and purchase or download them again with your current Apple ID.

Is it possible to change the length of a note in the score editor?

I thought I saw somewhere that it was now possible to adjust the length of a note in the score editor graphically, i.e. by clicking on the note and somehow adjust its length directly to change it from 1/4 note to 1/8 (for example).
I don't want to do this by going over to the "Length" dialog on the left because I hate having to switch from thinking in terms of music notation and then having to think (temporarily) in MIDI ticks per beat, etc.
I must admit that I'm finding it extremely frustrating to simply enter music into Logic in a score....I thought this was supposed to be one of its strengths but it seems to be providing amazing capabilities at the expense of ease of use for beginners.

greetings dh... are you into Key Commands? There are two which will help you do the above in a trice:
• Nudge Region/Event Length Right by SMPTE Frame
• Nudge Region/Event Length Left by SMPTE Frame
I set mine to the simple letter o and n
- I click on a note and press o repeatedly.. it grows and grows longer and longer
– I click on a note and press n repeatedly.. it shrinks and shrinks shorter and shorter
All by little increments
If you keep a Piano Roll window open while you do this, you can see the length do this exactly
man, it is VERY quick and handy for changing the length of notes
It really helps to have a view of the midi Piano Roll to cross check the exact length and position of the notes.
Check out the Key Commands:
• Set Next Higher division
• Set Next lower division
These change the note value in the transport bar near the time signature. Your time signature may be 4/4 but the "grid" on which the notes are appear in the Piano Roll could be displayed in quarter, 8th or 16th notes. If you experiment with these commands, then you can match the note lengths easily to the grid display visually (with the above nudge length commands)
Also - you may like to experiment with the following 3 KEY Key Commands:
1 • Nudge Region/Event Position Right by Nudge Value
2 • Nudge Region/Event Position Left by Nudge Value
This will move your selected notes forward in time or back in time according to the
value that is set in the Transport bar - say it is 16ths .. then each press of the key will move the notes a 16th
or if the value is 8th notes, then each press of the key forward or backwards will move the selected notes forward or back by this amount
... amazingly useful when you are taking a whole phrase and pasting it somewhere else, or if say you started to write a phrase in the Score Editor and you started on the wrong beat.. then you just Nudge back and forth
3 • Set Nudge Value to Division
.. this will in a trice change change the Nudge Value to whatever Note division value is set in the Transport bar
HTH and forgive me if I have given you too much information
..problem is I spent too much time in the Transport Bar in Los Angeles last year drinking with the iSchwartz and other Logic reprobrates... you should join us some time

How do I change the length of an audio file?

How do I change the length of an audio file without changing the actual recording?
I want to aligne start and end points to the rest of my project.

Well, yes and no. I have tried the Bounce track in place function, but it did not do what I was after. However, today I got an idea that solved the problem. I copied the region I had punched in several times. Then I used the Bounce track in place function. This made a track that was just as long as all the other tracks. Finally I silenced the audio "clips" that I had used to make the region longer. I have now 24 tracks to transfer to the Alesis HD 24 that starts, and ends, at the exact same point. This will suit the Alesis software just fine, I think.
Thanks for the tips.

Problem Resizing Regions

I'm having a problem resizing regions.
On some regions, I can make the region shorter, but I cannot lengthen it.
On other regions, I can make the region longer, but there is not silence in the added length - instead, the first notes of the region repeat (this happens using the little ruler symbol, not the the little circular arrow symbol)
Does it make any difference if the region is a copied region? Can you only lengthen original regions and not copied regions? I tried changing the resolution as per a prior post about this problem and that did not help.
Thanks for your suggestions.

On some regions, I can make the region shorter, but I cannot lengthen it.
you can not make an audio ("real") region longer then it's total length.
On other regions, I can make the region longer, {but} the first notes of the region repeat (this happens using the little ruler symbol
by "ruler" do you mean the Right bracket? something like <]>
what type of region?

Probleme changing the value of a variable in movieclip from my scene

Hello,
i have a probleme changing the value of a variable in movieclip from my scene. i explain: I have combobox on my scene containing categories, and in the scene i load an xml file containing links to php files that work with the combobox.
Also on the scene i have a movieclip "filmstrip", inside this movieclip on the first frame i have a script loading the php file selected in the scene . i use a load() function with a variable "theUrl" inside like this : T.load(theUrl);.
In my scene i want to change the value of "theUrl" inside the movieClip filmstrip. I tried filmstrip.theUrl = url; But it doesnt work
the xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<slideshow>
<area title1="10 Last updated" link1="link1.php"/>
<area title1="special" link1="link2.php"/>
</slideshow>
here is the code on my scene:
var link1:Array = new Array();
var LINK:String;
var url:String;
var whoOn:Number;
whoOn=0;
var x:XML = new XML();
x.ignoreWhite = true;
x.onLoad = function(success) {
var photos:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for (i=0; i<photos.length; i++) {
_root.link1.push(photos[i].attributes.link1);
url=link1[whoOn];
filmstrip.theUrl=url;//<<--HERE
x.load("category.xml");
var cbListener:Object = new Object();
cbListener.change = function(event_obj:Object) {
trace(select.selectedItem.label);
if (select.selectedItem.label == "Last updated") {
whoOn=0;
} else if (select.selectedItem.label == "Special") {
whoOn=1;
url=link1[whoOn];
filmstrip.theUrl=url; //<<-----HERE
select.addEventListener("change",cbListener);
here is the code inside the movie clip "filmstrip"
var T:XML = new XML();
T.ignoreWhite = true;
T.onLoad = function(xml) {
etc etc etc }
T.load(theUrl);    //<<---HERE it still undefined

YESSSS . Thanks you very much Kglad it wotk i put all in a function inside the filmstrip function Tload(theUrl){etc ect}and in the root i call it like this filmstrip.Tload(theUrl);   and it works
code in the root var link1:Array = new Array();
var LINK:String;
var url:String;
var whoOn:Number;
whoOn=0;
var x:XML = new XML();
x.ignoreWhite = true;
x.onLoad = function(success) {
var photos:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for (i=0; i<photos.length; i++) {
_root.link1.push(photos[i].attributes.link1);
url=link1[whoOn];
theUrl=url;
filmstrip.Tload(theUrl);//<<--HERE
x.load("category.xml");
var cbListener:Object = new Object();
cbListener.change = function(event_obj:Object) {
trace(select.selectedItem.label);
if (select.selectedItem.label == "Last updated") {
whoOn=0;

whoOn=1;
url=link1[whoOn];
theUrl=url;
filmstrip.Tload(theUrl);//<<-----HERE

How do I change the length of a column in the metadata?

A very simple package, reads data from SQL Server and FTPs it to a destination. I have zero experience with SSIS.
I had to add a new column (HEA_ID) to the input and output. The output record has a filler at the end (I hope you know what a filler is) and the new column has to go before the filler and the filler length reduced accordingly.
Problem: there is no apparent way to place the new column anywhere but after the Filler. The filler in the metadata is the wrong length and there is no way that I can see to change the length.
There is a yellow exclamation mark on the Flat File destination (where the filler is wrong length)
I get these erros when I run the updated package.
"The external metadata column is out of sync with the data source column. The column 'HEA_ID' needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection".
"The column filler needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection"
I have no idea how to fix these errors. Help needed.

Hi AllTheGoodNamesWereTaken,
According to your description, you add a new column HEA_ID and make some changes in filler column in the External Columns, so those two columns are out of sync with the data source column.
Please note that columns are created based on the data source columns. So we couldn’t directly change them in the Flat File Destination Advanced Editor.
To avoid this error message, just as Visakh said, just review mappings once again in the Flat File Destination. If we want to change the columns in the Flat File Destination, we need change the source columns.
Thanks,

Changing a length of more than one audio file in same time

Hi! I'm searching a way to change a length of the several audio files at the same time (this applies to ads that will be broadcast at the radio. The sounds need to have same time accurate to milliseconds). Let's say I've got 20 audio ads, which were originally meant to have 30 seconds, but each of audio file has small differences reaching less than a second. I would like to do a one-off activity, that will change length of each file to equal 30.000 seconds. In a word, is there a way to stretch several audio files, which have different time, to the same length at a same time ?

Thank you for your reply, problem solved with the help of Adobe CC, but it turned out that one of open-source applications also can do it.

Can't change still length

When I import stills into my movie, I can change the length by putting the cursor at either end. I get a bar with arrows on either side. I can't get the bar with just one arrow on it. That's not my real question. My main problem is later on I'm trying to change the length of the still and it won't let me. I even double click on it and the information box where it has the length, it can't be changed. It just tells you how long the clip is, no text box to change it.

The direct trimming cursors behave differently on unrendered vs. rendered stills. Unrendered stills are not video clips, while rendered stills are video clips.
If the photo was rendered by Ken Burns as it was imported -- which occurs if the Ken Burns checkbox is ON -- it has one-sided arrows, at least initially, for it cannot be made longer. (It's impossible to stretch a video clip longer.) Once you make it shorter, it shows two-sided arrows for now it can be dragged longer, back to its original length.
If the still was NOT rendered by Ken Burns -- the KB checkbox was OFF -- it always displays two-sided arrows, for its duration can always be changed both shorter and longer.
By the same token, the dialog window that opens when you double-click on the clip does not allow you to change the duration of a video clip, while it DOES let you change the duration of an unrendered image.

What are the possible effects of changing regions on your apple ID?

Hi,
I'd really like to know the possible effects of changing regions on one's apple ID. I've recently changed mine to UK's from Tanzania's - and I've provided a valid payment but the problem is on my recent downloads from that Tanzanian apple ID. I can't seem to get the updates on my apps anymore.

Was the iPad originally set up on a different computer, and hasn't been synced to the one that you are now trying to use ? There are some instructions on this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
(Before trying that you could copy any important files/documents off the iPad so that you have you own backup copy of them e.g. depending upon what the apps support then email them to yourself, use Dropbox, copy them to your computer via your wifi-network.)
You should be able to copy iTunes purchases off the iPad and over to that computer's iTunes via File > Devices Transfer Purchases, but if you have music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) which aren't in that computer's iTunes (and you haven't got a backup to copy them onto it from) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
For recovery mode, that will result in your iPad being put back to factory defaults i.e. all of your content will be removed from it

Changing regional settings gives error

Hello,
When trying to set the regional settings I get the following error:
The column "column name
Parent Instance" in the list or library "list name" has been marked for indexing. Please turn off all indexed columns before changing the collation of this site. You may re-index those columns after the collation of the site
has been changed
Is there any fix for this? I don't think it's a good idea to remove indexed system columns such as parent, child instance...How would I re-index those system columns? We need the currency, date and time to display according to the chosen
locale.
Thanks,
Martin

Error when changing the length of IO

Hi Experts,
I have changed the length of one of my Info-Object from NUMC-2 to NUMC-3. While trying to activate it it is giving the error "Structure Change at field Level(change Table)".
But When i changed the length of one more IO before from Char-1 to Char-3, it successfully got activated.
Please help me out.
Regards,
Pavan

Hi Ananda,
We cannot delete the master data.
Can Anyone pleasetell me why this IO is not getting activated when i change length from NUMC2 to NUMC3
I didn't face any problem when i changed the length of one of my IO from Char-1 to Char-3. It successfully got activated
But im facing this problem when I try to change the length of another IO from NUMC-2 to NUMC-3.
If anyone any any solution for this otherthan deleting the existing data, please do let me know.
