Project stuck in Desktop mode(?) ?

Opened a current project and a box appeared stating "cannot open in edit mode, opening in desktop mode". I cannot export from this mode, how do i get back to edit mode?

Desktop mode is simply a customization of the sequence settings.  Functionally it's no different than using a preset.
So...why can't you export?

  • Cs4 project loaded as desktop mode in cs5

    Hello:
    Just made the full upgrade yesterday from cs4 to cs5 on windows 7 from vista using the matrox with max.  Loving the HD editing.  I also tried to open an SD cs4 project in cs5.  While opening, and after the message that tells you it is converting to cs5, I got this message - 'The editing mode used by this sequence could not be loaded.  The sequence will be opened in desktop mode.' So the project opened, I created a new sequence with the matox settings and cut and pasted the original sequence into it.  Any area that had to be rendered went pixelized.  The only way I could get rid of this was to remove all colour correction, effects and transitions.  When I reintroduced them, I ended up with the same result.  I have found a work around, and that is opening a new project and importing the old cs4 project into it rather than just trying to open the cs4 project with cs5.  Rather than using matrox settings, I just rerendered the sequence and it works fine, however, I don't have my program monitor which is controled through matrox.  This will be the last of two SD projects, but wondered if anyone else had this issue.
    Thanks, Christine

    Yes, the Export function is the best that you will be able to do. There is usually forward compatibility between versions' Projects (though with a few pitfalls and failures), but there has never been backward compatibility. Closest that I have ever seen was some CS3 Encore Projects would Open in EncoreDVD 2.0, but that does not help you.
    Good luck,

  • Apps hanging up on update stuck in wait mode on desktop iPad mini

    Apps hanging up on update stuck in wait mode on desktop iPad mini

    All of these suggestions have worked for other users in the past, try them in order and maybe one will work for you.
    "Waiting apps"
    1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    2. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first.
    4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    5. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
    6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    7. If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • I have a track stuck in "solo" mode.  What to do?

    I have a track stuck in solo mode.  The solo light on the track is not illuminated.  The solo track lock is not activated.  What can I do?

    Then I guess that the free space on Your Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk is less than 5Gb or worse - I never go under 25Gb when doing a DVD.
    To make a DiskImage
    • Start a new iDVD project (as there is an iDVD bug luring in old projects (closed one time))
    • Arrange all material: Movies, SlideShows and extras etc
    • Go up to File Menu - and down to Save as a DiskImage
    (You need a minimum of 25Gb to let this work OK)
    • Then close iDVD
    • Double click on the .img file You just created on DeskTop
    • Start DVD-player tool (If it doesn't jump up in action by it self)
    • See that all plays as You want it to do
    • Close DVD-Player tool
    • Open Disk Util tool (Application folder / Tool folder)
    • Now to the left - select the .img file
    • Go up and click on BURN
    • When asked to do so - Insert a new DVD
    • NOW SELECT TO SET DOWN BURN SPEED TO x4 or x1 (as this gives a significantly better result)
    I Use
    • Verbatim
    • DVD-R
    And get a very good result
    OK mishmumken - I never figured out WHY I'm such a BLAB ! - You concentrated this to 100% Valu - GREAT

  • Windows Stuck in Safe Mode - mouse won't work - need my data...

    New Mac User, well two months of trying to get it to opperate correctly. Unbelievable! I've re-installed XP SP2 too many times to count, finally had it up and thought it was running fine for the last week, then I went over to the Mac OS tried accessing windows through boot camp, it shut down the Mac OS, then when I tried to go back to boot windows directly, I received the damning <windows root> \system32\hal.dll file is missing or corrupt - again.
    I've gone through a bunch of posts, tried a number of the instructions, and now have a worse issue, my computer is now stuck in safe mode with Windows, by instructions, here, I'd disabled everything for start up in Configuration Utility and checked start up in safe mode there too, so now I can't get it out of it, and since my mouse and keyboard won't opperate in safe mode, I get to the log in page to select user but the mouse just won't move and pressing "CTRL ALTDLT" no response.
    In the Recovery Counsole when I rean CHKDSK /r this is what it came back with...
    "The volume appears to contain or or more unrecoverable problems."
    97638572 kilobytes total disk space.
    90877508 kilobytes are available.
    406 bytes in each allocation unit.
    24409643 total allocation units on disk.
    22719377 allocation units available on disk.
    So what does that mean? Not sure what the " volume appears to contain one or more unrecoverable problems" means when it's not telling me what they could possibly be. Thoughts anyone?
    If anyone knows or has some good advice on how to get windows back up and running correctly, and without wiping out my data - as I can't get it backed up, I would be tremendously grateful...
    2 months of this is really enough, dying to use my system, and praying that I can...
    Thanks so much,
    Kitti

    Here's what worked: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330184
    I followed the instructions above and once I finished, After re-booting, I selected Microsoft Windows XP Professional and the System Configuration Utility came up.
    On the “General” tab, it shows that the Start Up Selection is on “Selective Startup” with everything checked, but what’s marked “Using Modified BOOT.INI
    Tried to change it to “Normal Startup – load all device drivers and services” then re-start.
    Windows came back up, but so did the System Configuration Utility and still showing that it was starting up with “Selective Startup”
    Now just need to figure out how to start it up in “Normal”, if in fact that’s possible. Will keep you posted and if anyone has any further suggestions, that would be much appreciated.
    I do hope this will help all the others that have run into the main issue, which I have found is caused by the Parallels Desktop by they way, not Microsoft, and that start having issues by getting the dreaded " hal.dll " file is missing or corrupt on a direct Boot to Windows.
    Very long and sleepless night….

  • Zen Vision M 30GB is stuck in Recovery Mode

    Hi, I have a Zen Vision M 30GB that is stuck in Recovery Mode. I have tried ' Cleaning ', ' Formatting ' and ' Reload Firmware ' but none of my 3 computers in which it was previously used recognise the device. The computers have Win Xp Home, Win xP Pro and Win 7 Pro, 64-bit. I could get it to connect once to my Win 7 and I set the firmware down to .4 ( I think), as I have read that latest Firmware .20 does not recognise some of the new batteries with 400 mAh and 700mAh batteries. I have tried the MP3 Recovery Tool, Creative Wizard tool but none work. Would appreciate any suggestion. I have read extensi'vely the postings about Zen Vision M in the ABIT (anythingbutipod) Forums, but no luck in re-loading the firmware. TIA, MPM

    I had installed .4. and in the Recovery Mode, it dispalys v0.0.6. I have Creative Zen Vision M Media Explorer installed in both, my Xp Home desktop and Xp Pro ( not 64-bit) in my laptop. I will check which version of WMP is installed in my Xp systems.
    On many occasions, all 3 computers (including Win & Pro 64-bit) signalled ' Un-recognised USB Device many times but now nothing happens and I can operate the touch pad of the Zen even when it is connected to the computers !!

  • HELP!!! iphone 3gs stuck in recovery mode

    I tried doing the latest iphone system software update and the **** thing got stuck in recovery mode! The 291 MB update downloads fine and it made a backup and then i assume it removed the old software and started installing the new software. It goes through the "Preparing iPhone for restore" and gets to the very end of it on iTunes and just stops. On the phone it has the silver apple with the status bar below it, the status bar gets a little bit of the ways done and then just stops as well. Then after a minute the iPhone says that I need to connect it to iTunes. This is where it sits and does nothing. If I disconnect the iphone and reconnect it to itunes itunes will tell me that it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to restore it. I say ok and it goes through the above process again and stops at the same point. What can I do to get it out of recovery mode? I dont need to save all my stuff that was on the phone, tho it would be nice.
    Thanks
    p.s. it is the latest version of iTunes

    The "hosts" file may be blocking the iTunes Store. Find your hosts file. The hosts file is normally found in the following location:
    Windows XP: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
    1. Select the hosts file. Then click the Edit menu, and choose Copy.
    2. Then, click the Edit menu again, and choose Paste. There should now be a duplicate of the hosts file named "Copy of hosts".
    3. Drag the original hosts file to your desktop.
    4. Right-click the "Copy of hosts" file and choose Open. You may be prompted to choose the program you want to use to open this file. Double-click Notepad.
    5. When Notepad opens, click the Edit menu and choose Select All. Then click the Edit menu, and choose Delete.
    6. Click the File menu, and choose Save. Close Notepad.
    7. Right-click the "Copy of hosts" file, and choose Rename. Type "hosts" (without quotation marks) and press Enter.
    8. Restart your computer and try updating again.

  • Mac formatted ipod stuck in recovery mode when rescuing tunes onto a PC

    Hi
    I have an ipod Nano (6gb) that is Mac formatted. I tried to recover the tunes from it to a PC desktop with Xplay. It started ok and then the ipod entered into recovery mode so it could be reformatted for Windows (I think itunes started doing it).
    At that moment I couldn’t recover my tunes. Now whenever I use Xplay again it says "not accessible. The disk structure is corrupted and unreadable.” So it’s stuck in recovery mode.
    I know the tunes are still on the ipod because the amount of disk space taken up hasn’t changed, despite the ipod not actually showing the songs on the UI.
    How can I fix this so I can grab all the tunes off the ipod before I restore the ipod in itunes and thus effectively formatting it?
    Cheers,
    L

  • Ipod touch 2g stuck in recovery mode like I have never seen!

    I bought an ipt2 at a pawnshop today as a side project. they said that it was stuck in recovery mode, and I thought it would be an easy fix...
    I have tried recovery restore
    DFU restore
    different computers
    I got it to update to 4.1. but when it was starting up it showed the apple logo for like 2 seconds and then went right back to the connect to pc screen =/
    I am so puzzled!

    Go download RecBoot, kick it in recovery mode and install the firmware manually. You can download it here.
    http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
    When you get done upgrading and for some reason you get and error or are stuck in recovery mode, use RB to get out of it. It might still work fine at that point.

  • VFW clips always render in Desktop Mode

    Hi,
    Sometimes I use the following workflow: import the files compressed with VFW (Video for Windows) codec into Premiere, then preview and export them using the same VFW codec. During this procedure Premiere should not recompress the clips to which the effects are not applied. This works fine for me in Premiere 1.5, but in Premiere 2.0 and 3.0 these clips are always recompressed.
    I tried several VFW codecs (Huffyuv, Morgan M-JPEG, Cinepak, Indeo) and the same happens for all of them. The only case, when it works for me as it should in a Desktop mode, are Uncompressed 8-bit/10-bit File Format use cases.
    What I actually do:
    Make a custom preset with Editing mode set to Desktop and the compressor set to some VFW codec.
    Import the material which is compressed with this VFW codec (all the video parameters match the project settings).
    When the clip is placed on the timeline the red line appears above the clip (this seems to be not correct). After performing a preview the clip gets rendered and the line above it changes to green.
    To ensure that the clip settings match the project settings I get the rendered preview file from the Adobe Premiere Preview Files folder and place it on the timeline. The red line above the already rendered clip appears again and the clip is rendered once more time (the problem persists).
    So, I would like to ask is it possible to use the VFW codec in a Desktop mode without a full recompression during preview/export, or may be its a problem of my own single configuration?

    Thank you, Jim. Your suggestion is based on the idea, that there is no need to recompress the original source files during the project workflow before the final project deployment, right? I just want to remind, that I think, this discussion does not lead to resolve the point of my original question, but here are my comments:
    > Either stabilize your clips in VirtualDub during their first pass (when you make then DV clips),
    I need to stabilize just the selective parts of the material which actually will be used in the project (not the whole source since it is unneeded, lossy and time consuming procedure), and sometimes different presets are used for different parts. Which these parts are, I will know only after editing with Premiere. In Vdub during material preparation I only tune fields, luma/levels, etc. issues without thoroughly watching the source material.
    > use After Effects to stabilize them (which will probably do a better job anyway).
    I like and often use the Track motion in AE, but not the Stabilize motion function, the Vdubs one suit me better.
    > use Dynamic Link, so no rendering needs to be done.
    I think its a cool feature, obviously, by using the DL you have the ability to quickly change some parameters in both Premiere and AE at any time and this is the plus. I was not able to test it (my version is not Production Premium), but any such a feature has its drawbacks. Just a one of them from the Premiere help files:
    > After Effects renders the linked composition on a frame by frame basis during playback in the target application If youre working with complex source compositions and experiencing playback delays, you can take the composition offline or disable a linked clip to temporarily stop referencing a dynamically linked composition, or render the composition and replace the dynamically linked composition with the rendered file.
    Many of the work I do in AE are time consuming operations. When I work with a huge number of effects, layers and nested compositions in AE I like to pre-render compositions to optimize the work inside AE and when I finish the composition in AE for me is better to render it. When AE compositions are complex (actually they are) and may render several hours, my computer and me may not survive with this.
    There are other cross-application workflows available between AE and Premiere, like a copy/paste and project import, but they have limitations about which I do not want to care of mostly, while editing. Nevertheless, I use these workflows in simple cases (mainly when getting the materials from Premiere to AE).
    I agree, that it is possible to avoid several generations by using current cross-application workflow. But with this workflow I will:
    1) Loose a lot of time on time consuming operations.
    2) Need to take care about limitations of Premiere/AE interaction.
    3) Be limited to use the Premiere & AE without my preferable types of external processing, which do not support the DL (including, but not limited to, a Vdub stabilization function).
    To summarize, I prefer using Premiere for real-time editing without this workflow.
    By the way (just back to my original question): could you, please, make the following few steps in your Premiere CS3, this may help:
    1) In Premiere, create a new preset based on one of the DV presets. On the Custom settings set General -> Editing Mode to Desktop, on Video Rendering set the file format to Video for Windows and the Compressor to Uncompressed UYVY 422 8bit.
    2) Import some small DV clip and place it on the timeline. You should see a
    i red line
    above it.
    3) Now, Render work area. The line above the clip changes to
    i green.
    4) Now, in the filesystem, locate the generated preview file Adobe Premiere Pro Preview files/project_name.PRV/Rendered -, make a copy of it and place this copy on the timeline. You will see a
    i red line
    above it.
    5) Now, go to Project/Project Settings/VideoRendering and change the File format from Video for Windows to Uncompressed 8-bit(4:2:2 YUV) and confirm. Now you should not see
    i any line
    above the file copied from the Preview folder.
    Does the line behavior changes exactly the same way in your application?
    Thank's for your help.

  • Mini stuck in Disk Mode

    I'm having a problem in which my mini is stuck in disk mode after I eject it from itunes, or off the desktop. I've tried resetting it, but nothing happens all I see is disk mode with the large check symbol followed by the ok to disconnect message. I have restored it using the most current ipod updater, and it hasn't changed a thing. Last night I was unable to transfer any music to it, I'd get a message saying the disk couldn't be read or written to, however I was just able to transfer a couple of songs after changing the connection cord to USB. I tried connecting it to the outlet with the adaptor, and the battery shows as fully charged.
    On occasion it'll show a folder with an exclamation and the web address to this forum. I forgot to mention I ran it through disk utility and both verifying disk and repairing disk showed the iPod was ok. Has anyone experienced anything similar? and if so, help?
    I looked to find a topic covering this, but most everyone's issue was resolved with a reset.

    Thanks for the reply. I left the iPod disconnected overnight so it could discharge the battery, which it did since it was perpetually "on" in Disk Mode. My hopes where dashed when clicking the select button and seeing the apple logo pop up, to seeing it go right back into disk mode. I've since recharged it and still have the same issue. Whatever the issue is, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the battery.
    The "enable disk use" option is grayed out in manual song managing...I toggled it on to automatic to see if anything would change but it didn't.
    The iPod itself seems to work fine while connected. I can move songs back nd forth, I can even play music off it (though is it actually playing off the iPod if its in its dock or just playing from your library I wonder). It's only when I eject the iPod that I have any problems.

  • Desktop mode...

    I've created some projects with Adobe Premiere Pro 1 and 2 and would like to migrate them over to my new CS3 machine. The problem is: when I copy over all the files and try and open the Premiere file I get a dialogue box that tells me "The editing mode for this project could not be loaded. The project will be opened in Desktop mode." Apparently, Desktop mode is no good because I can't open the project this way. I've searched the Help in Premiere to no avail. Can someone explain to me what is happening and how I can port over these projects?
    Thanks in advance...

    Create a new project in CS3 and import the older projects. This is usually more robust.
    Cheers

  • Desktop Mode (Premier Pro CS5)

    I recently had a project that was nearly done and the first time I installed Adobe Premier Pro CS5, everything worked perfectly. Until recently, I had to reinstall the software and all of a sudden, it would only open in "Desktop Mode." All the video files I had used now say, "Media Offline." I'm hoping that there is a solution and I don't have to remake the entire sequence. How can I get the original sequence back with all the video files working properly?

    How do you "repair install?"
    Things might have changed since CS2 (last time that I did one), but here are my steps:
    Close all Adobe programs in a suite, or the single program if only stand-alone
    Insert the Installation (Disk 1) media
    Let it either AutoRun, or launch the AutoRun, if that is turned off in the OS
    From the dialog screen, choose the program (if in a suite, you will need to navigate to that)
    The installer module will have surveyed your system, and should have detected what you have installed
    One should then get only two options: Uninstall, or Repair Install
    When one chooses Repair Install, the installer module will again survey the system, but this time for the chosen program
    It will then go about fixing the installation
    Now, Adobe changes the installer module from time to time, so am not sure if CS5/5.5 would be any different.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
