Problem moving between a mac and PC

So for the first time ever, I've been tasked with working on a project that was started on a mac and I now have to continue editing the video on a PC. The source media files are on both systems, so I thought it would be a simple task of opening the pproj with premiere on my PC and then simply telling premiere where it could find the source videos. Sadly its not this easy. I tried to open the pproj on my PC and it gave me an error "This project contained a sequence that could not be opened". I can't for the life of me figure out what the issue could be considering all of the core files are the same and the sequence itself was set to use P2 1080i-1080p 60hz DVCPROHD and the DVCPRO HD 1080i 60hz codec and my PC has the same codec.
Is there anything I can do to save the project on the mac in a "PC Friendly" format?
I also opened one of my previous project files in a text editor and the mac project to compare the XML info and the PC one has only around 2700 lines of code and the mac version has over 4500 even though its shorter in duration and has less happening in it.
Is it possible that getting it to open could be as simple as changing a header or file format tag somewhere in the code and re-saving?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Andrew but the sequence settings haven't been changed. I'm trying to open the project file not import it. Also I've noticed that Macs are A LOT better at opening PC files in general (which might be why you had more success), but if you try to do it the other way around (mac to PC) which is my case, that's when problems tend to occur.
So unless I'm supposed to be importing the sequence not simply opening it, then I don't think this is the answer to my problem. Anyone else have any ideas?
Just to be thorough I figured I'd take a screenshot of the exact error:

  • Did Mountain Lion break calendar and note sync between the Mac and iPhone?

    When I was running Lion, my calendars and notes synced properly between my Mac and iPhone (with notes going into Mail.app). After upgrading to Mountain Lion, the notes on my Mac were moved into Notes.app and my calendars appeared to be unharmed. I've recently noticed that neither my calendars nor my notes are syncing between my Mac and iPhone.
    I use iTunes to sync my data (either via USB or WiFi) and have no interest in moving to iCloud. I have tried the suggestion of enabling iCloud sync on my iPhone, then disabling, as well as telling iTunes to overwrite the calendar data on my iPhone. Neither of these approaches has solved my sync problem.

    I found a solution to my problem. Hopefully it helps someone else too.
    I deleted the following file and folder:
         ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache
         ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Sync Changes/
    When I synced my iPhone, I was presented with several sync conflicts to resolve. I resolved them and applied the changes immediately. Now my Mac and iPhone are in sync and I've confirmed that changes are syncing from my Mac to my iPhone (I'll confirm that it works the other direction tomorrow when I can look at my calendar at work).
    This is the thread that helped me:

  • Is there a way to Move files to the iCloud thus freeing up disk space on my Mac? Or does iCloud only sync (replicate) files between my Mac and the cloud?

    Is there a way to Move files to the iCloud thus freeing up disk space on my Mac? Or does iCloud only sync (replicate) files between my Mac and the cloud? I want to free up disk space on my Mac and assumed that the icloud would be a good way to do this, but having 'moved' 70Gb of files to the iCloud drive (I've upgraded to 200Gb storage) my Mac is still nearly full and I've realised that it seems to just Sync files just like dropbox.

    So, the big question is did the Apple guys confirm that this is how the new iCloud drive should be working?  I'm guessing, from your response, that this is indeed the case.  Are they going to fix this anytime soon?  I thought that this was a new function of the iCloud drive in Yosemite.
    I just want an online storage facility to back up my photo & music collections.  I did look at Dropbox as they have a good deal going with their Dropbox Pro, however this is still just a sync service where the Master files reside on your local disk drive - although I have read that there may be a way to work around this.  Still not ideal.

  • Can I use the same apple ID to face time between my Mac and ipad2

    I have tried to use FaceTime between my Mac and iPad 2 using the same apple ID and I cannot connect. Do I need two separate apple ID's to do this?

    OK SO My original email on my ipad is a .mac ( which is my email from my apple ID)
    After reading your advice above I added another email which is a  .me  email  I tried to facetime my husband on his airbook and it would not work. Do I have to eliminate one of the email addresses? And if I do remove it from my Facetime settings on my ipad will it be removed from my macbook pro as well?

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    Starting as far back as I know about. Mac versions of Microsoft Office:
    Office 98
    Office 2001
    Office v.X
    Office 2004
    Office 2008
    Office v.X was basically the same as Office 2001 but ran on OS X rather than OS 9. I am running Office v.X right now. Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Entourage all have version numbers starting with 10.something.
    Office 2004 is currently onsale and is the latest version but is only optimised for PowerPC processors. Since early to mid 2006 Apple has used Intel processors. Office 2008 will be Intel native. You can purchase Office 2004 today and obtain a free update to Office 2008 when it's released early net year.
    If you are running PowerPC Macs then Office v.X may well be suitable in fact Office v.X still runs fine on my Intel iMac with Leopard.
    You might also consider:

    NeoOffice (link).

  • My icalendar is not syncing between my mac and iphone

    My icalendar is not syncing between my mac and iphone.  Everything for icalendar and icloud is turned on for all devices.  PLEASE HELP

    Settings>icloud.  Assuming you have already set up the connection to icloud (ID, password), then turn on Calendars on that screen.
    If they don't appear, then log into icloud.com using a computer's browser and look at the calendars page.  If empty, then you are not syncing calendars from your device to icloud.  If there, then be sure Calendars is turned on in Settings>iCloud or System Preferences>iCloud.

  • Difference between Spilt Mac and Local Mac architecture

    Hi,
    Can someone explain to me the difference between Split mac and Local Mac architecture.
    And of course if you have some documentation on it, I'll take with pleasure.
    Thank you.
    Jonathan.

    http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac123/ac147/archived_issues/ipj_9-3/wireless_lan_switches.html
    Two types of MAC implementations are possible with Fit APs, known as the Local MAC and the Split MAC architectures. Local MAC is where all the wireless MAC functions are performed at the AP. The  complete 802.11 MAC functions, including management and control frame  processing, are resident on the APs. These functions include time-sensitive functions (also  known as Real Time MAC functions).
    The Split MAC architecture divides the implementation of the  MAC functions between the AP and the controller. The real-time MAC  functions include functions such as beacon generation, probe transmission and  response, control frame processing (for example Request to Send and Clear to        Send—RTS and CTS), retransmission, and so on. The non-real  time functions include authentication and deauthentication; association  and reassociation; bridging between Ethernet and Wireless LAN; fragmentation; and so  on.
    Vendors differ in the type of functions that are split between  the AP and the controller, and in some cases, even about what  constitutes real time. One common implementation of a Fit AP involves local MAC at the AP and  control and management functions at the AP.

  • Can I set up a home network between my mac and a windows based laptop?

    Can I set up a homenetwork between my mac and a windows based laptop?

    The router is te network hub.
    I have a network between my Linux box and my PC  and my MBP because they are both hooked up the the same router.  All you need is the "192.168.1.x" address of the destination box and the software needed for the type of conection (VNC, SSH, etc).
    What helps is to set up "static routing" for all boxes so the IP address does not change.  I have set up my Linux box to be 192.168.1.100 always, using the MAC (the ethernet abbreviation MAC, not Macintosh) in the router's "static routing" table.
    Exactly which screens you need in the router depends on te router make and the internal management screens.  The router maker should have either online (if they offer it past a 1 year from purchase) or online help found through Google.  A MAC address is a set of 6 hexadecimal number separated by ":" -- an example (which I imagine will match *some* MAC *somewhere* is "6A:13:F2:72:E4:A1".

  • My Notes no longer sync between my mac and iPhone. I have tried everything.

    My notes used to sync between my phone and my mac until a week and a half ago when it all of a sudden stopped. I have done absolutely everything that I have seen given as rememdies to this and nothing is working. I am thinking it is an issue with the phone, not the laptop. What now?

    I have gone to setting and tried to unmark and remark Notes within iCloud and within gmail and any other accounts I can. I have tried relogging in to all accounts that have Notes marked on both the phone and the computer. I have tried resetting the network connection. I have tried moving the notes on the computer from one account to another to see if that changes anything. I have tried plugging the phone into the laptop and resolving things that way.
    I normally have synced through iCloud and also through gmail. My iCloud storage is nearly full but I didn't think that that would be one of the effecting factors?
    I am all out of ideas. It just stopped all of a sudden?

  • ITunes 10/Homesharing not working between my Mac and Windows computers

    Can see my three libraries but cannot drag and drop between the Mac iTunes and my two Windows iTunes libraries. Windows libraries can drag and drop between each other. Have tried to turn homesharing on and off. Have deauthorirized and authorized again also. Please help.

    I'm having similar problems too and have been scouring the net for the past few hours with no luck in finding a solution. Right now on my home network I have 3 machines that have iTunes installed (all the latest version), my MacBook Pro running 10.6.3, my wife's Mac Mini running 10.6.4, and our HTPC running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit. My MacBook Pro and PC have no problem using Home Sharing but the Mac Mini refuses to co-operate. The only way I can get it to see any other libraries, or for it to share it's own library, is to turn on network sharing. This works, but it isn't as nice as Home Sharing (when Home Sharing works that is :P ) I've followed all the instructions listed on Apple's site to enable Home Sharing on all the machines. Obviously I've done something right as the MBP and PC talk fine. The only thing I can think of is that it has something to do with 10.6.4. If anyone has any suggestions I am certainly open to hearing them.

  • How do I make iCloud work between my Mac and my iPhone as suggested in the video's on Apple's website ?

    I'm trying to share a set of Numbers projects between my MacBook and my iPhone.
    I notice that iWork.com does NOT do what I am expecting from the Apple Video's : it only allows me to consult documents through Safari, but not to open one directly from iCloud.com in the appropriate app for editing ...
    Through file sharing in iTunes it seems to work for one of the projects ... but another project which has multiple tabs and rather long tables doesn't open on my iPhone due to "unknown error" ...
    Even then, the iTunes file sharing process can hardly be called seemless, and in no way even approaches what is suggested in the video's :
    The video's suggest that when working on a file on one device, then picking up another device the file will show the changes ...
    In reality here's what I have to do to make a change on the file on my Mac, share it with the iPhone, then change something on the iPhone and share it back with my Mac :
    1. save the changes to the document
    2. add the document to iTunes file sharing
    3. sync my iPhone
    4. open Numbers on my iPhone
    5. add the document from iTunes
    6. open it
    7. make a change
    8. sync the iPhone
    9. choose "save as ..." in iTunes to overwrite the copy on my Mac
    10. open the document in Numbers on the Mac
    Guess what ... when making a new change, I have to go back in iTunes, delete the link to the document and add the document again in order to be able to share the change ...
    I would expect the syncing with iTunes to at least take care of the file updating on the respective copies on Mac and iOS device ... apparently not so.
    Anyone knows how to really make Documents In The Cloud work ?

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?

  • No FT between US Mac and WiFi iPhone in Italy

    Can't do FaceTime chat between my Mac in USA on Airport Extreme WiFi and ani iPhone (4s) on hotel or cafe WiFi in Italy.
    The Italy end attempts to contact me via my Apple ID (I'm correctly set up, have tested with a local user), but no resullt  I've also tried connecting from my end to the iPhone's Apple ID as well as its phone number. The other user's iPhone has been OK at home with domestic FT chats. Any troubleshooting tips to pass along via iMessage (which works fine)? Thanks.

    Chuck,
    Make sure the person with the iPhone has the correct date/time settings for the time zone the iPhone is located in. Usually, this is set automatically, but it doesn't hurt to double check.
    Also, it is possible that the public wifi systems that are being utilized by the iPhone do not have enough available bandwidth to support FaceTime.
