Muito abrigado my friend! Seriously thanks a million, but I was curious to know about my situation regarding replacing my first shot multiple times... In another words there's a clip already in the storyline which won't allow me to replace edit since it just moves out of the way. Would you just go back into the browser and add the original selection to the first clip? Because I kept having to move my connected music and solid I just gave up and would wait until the end to add the music and solid (I add the solid to give the background a different color when I want to create the letterbox effect).
I just watched a music video tutorial where someone created a 3 minute solid, made like a hundred cuts with the blade tool and manually dragged each clip from his browser to replace from start for each of those cuts in the solid...
What is your workflow for music-based edits? Do you place the song in the primary story line and use the video as connected clips? Do you use a solid or gap clip and dissect it with cuts and replace the segments with clips? I really hate not being able to add markers to the timeline and must make those marks on a clip/generator/music track of some kind. Also if you have a project that has the same settings with fps, crop size, solid as a background is there a way to make template so I don't have to do that each and every time?
Thanks again my friend!!!

A Few Quick Tips For Those Who Are New To Fios Quantum and the New Quantum Update

Most of those who have quantum received the new update early this morning (8/12/14)
There are a lot of people that are new to fios who never had anything prior to quantum so I thought I'd make this post to help.
Those who had the older boxes prior to quantum should already know about all of this.
The new update now reflects what the older stb/dr's have and have had for awhile now. There are now more menu settings you will want to go through.
The ad banner guide at the bottom can be disabled. Go to menu > Notifications > Guide Banner > set to disable
The banner will still be there, but will show Verizon rather then ads.
The home screen can be turned off. There is an option to turn it off within the home screen or you can go to menu > Notifications > Promotions > set to disable
The led on the boxes have been changed. If you want to change it go to menu > System > Media Server Settings > LED Brightness.
The Auto Power Off option is set to 4 hours by default. If you don't want the box to turn off automatically you will want to disable this. Menu > System > Media Server Settings > Auto Power Off > set to none
There is now the option to change the guides banners times outs. Menu > Settings > System > Television > Info Bar Time Out (also Channel Bar Timeout)
Some on other forums mentioned the video formats have been changed so its a good idea to check the option out to see if it reflects what you want. Menu > Settings > Audio & Video > Video Settings > Video Format
The aspect # button now works so any SD channels that are boxed can now be stretched using the # button.
I'm happy to see this option back.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the info regarding the latest update. I like some of the new/improved options, however I am highly disappointed that the update discontinued the reminder option. I would think that setting a program reminder is a highly used feature and many will be unhappy now that it is gone. I know I surely am!

Any new tips for making Garageband run quicker (Delay/Lag)?

Hey all
AI was just wondering if anyone had come up with any new tips for making Garageband run quicker? Theres such a delay form when I move the cursor or press play to when anything actually happens.
Ive tried everything here
http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/Optimize.html
But its not really made anything quicker
I don't know where this option is though?
Make sure your Energy Saver System Prefs is set to Highest Performance, if this is an option
I'm not using any effects/plugins (yet) on my song, but will start mixing EQing/using plugins soon so need to try and stop
It really slowed down when I recorded (and copy pasted) a load of handclaps into it over the entire song and onto multiple tracks.
I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Ive got 120GB of space left on my 500GB hard drive
Any ideas or newer tips anyone?
I'm running 39 tracks by the way.
Thanks

Quick Tip of the Week: Take a Quick Look at the files in Trash

I ran this Quick Tip which was emailed to me today, but noticed that the Quick Look icon demonstrated isn't on my Toolbar, instead there's something called a Path icon, and Finder>View>Customise Toolbar is greyed out, so I do not appear to be able to change it. Quick Look works when I press the space bar, so it is on my iMac.
Does anybody know why Quick Look isn't on the Toolbar, and how to change the Path icon for Quick Look?

To open a Finder window, click a clear space on your Desktop. You'll see the word Finder top left in your screen. You can press command Command N on your keyboard or use your mouse and from the Menu Bar (top of screen) click File/New Finder Window.
Migration Assistant will transfer all your files and important settings for you.
To see exactly which Mac OS version you are running, click the Apple logo top left in your screen, then click, "About This Mac". The version number will be displayed in that pane.

Quick tip - reducing PDF file size

My STANDARD menu for printing doesn't look anything like the one that is being used in the demo.
I do have the "cover & pages" part for *some documents*, but there is nothing there when I drop down concerning Color synching. I make a lot of PDF files and Sure would like to be able to reduce the size.
Where did the printing menu come from in the quick tip?

there is no "compress PDF" box on my print menu under the PDF checkbox/ menu. at least on neither of my computers which both have leopard installed. this on the standard drop down menu. what print dialogue are U using.

I have a Macbook Pro 15" that is three and a half years old. Although it has slowed a bit, it still runs well and runs every program I need. Any tips for how to keep this old computer running well and in good health?

I have a 250 gig drive and try to keep at least 100 gigs unused at all times, 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM memory, back up with Time Machine and CrashPlan, and have OS X 10.7.3.
This was my first Mac since an old Apple II GS. After that I used PC's and got really good at reformatting, replacing drives, reinstalling, defragging, resolving software conflicts, etc. Since switching back to Macs (five in my extended family now), I haven't had to do any of those things. So, although, the cost is three times as much, the aggrevation has been ten times less.
I'm retired and living on a fixed income and would therefore like to keep this computer running as opposed to constatntly upgrading.
That said, any tips?
Thanks
It does have a crack on the left of the screen case about 3/4'' up from the bottom. I've posted that as another question.

Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior. Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
SuperDuper!
SyncTwoFolders
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Adding more RAM, if feasible, and a new, faster hard drive may also help pep it up a little.

Tips For Solving the Mac OS X Lion Slowness (Lots of Beach Balls)

Hi Folks,
Just a quick list of tips for this issue that some of Mac OS X Lion users face.
The main symptom is that we get the Beach Ball on almost any task, it takes 4, maybe five times more time to do what we need to do. So depending on the schedule, it can drive us crazy. I was facing that, and started to think that Lion was a Windows Vista relative.
Please remind that the tips below involve backing up and restoring your system. If you are not careful, you may lose everything. You are responsible for your acts. Be cautious!
How I solved my issue:
1) Checked for Disk Permissions and the Disk itself:
- Applications / Utilities / Disk Utility:
- Click on your disk, and then VERIFY DISK. If everything is OK, move on. If it is not, REPAIR DISK.
- Now click on VERIFY DISK PERMISSIONS. If everthing is OK, move. If not, Repair.
This step 1 is to make sure that your slowness is due to something related to the OS itself and not to permissions/disk.
If this solves the slowness, then you are OK. Now further steps are necessary. In my case, this just helped a little bit. The beach-balling reduced by 20% only. Still too slow.
2) Do a full backup of your system.
I used Time Machine. Make sure you have all of your applications closed. So the backup will be full. If you fail to do a good backup, you will lose everything! Make sure you do a good one. Maybe do it twice on 2 different disks! Now you have been warned.
3) Do a Full Restore of your entire system.
Now, get that Install CD that came with your Mac,
- Put it on your drive, shut down your computer.
- While holding the C key, press the start button of your Mac. It will boot using the Install CD that came with your Mac.
To recover your entire system:
Connect your Time Machine backup disk to your computer. If you’re restoring your system because of a problem with your startup disk, make sure the disk has been repaired or replaced.
Insert your Mac OS X Install disk, and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
In the Installer, choose Utilities > Restore System from Backup.
In the Restore Your System dialog, click Continue.
Select your Time Machine backup volume.
Select the Time Machine backup you want to restore.
Follow the onscreen instructions.
4) Remove the CD, and boot.
When I did that, the system came back very fast and responsive. No more beach balls (only on the really-intensive tasks), and everything was back to normal.
5) So, what was it anyways?
Before doing this Backup/Restore, I was getting lots of DISK I/O ERRORS, specially during boot time (you can check that by shutting down your mac, powering it back on and imediatelly pressing Command-V - Verbose Mode).
Sure, the first thing in mind was that I had a faulty hard drive, but I checked it several times for errors (via Disk Utility), and nothing showed up.
So I decided to do a full backup/restore of the system. And it solved it, at least for me.
My config:
MacBook Pro (2009 edition) - 5 GB RAM - 640 GB HD - Mac OS X 10.7
Regards.

Also my mac will not complete my 5 software updates, no idea which software, but it said it could not do it. Also backing up with time machine had failed twice today. Thanks

Tips for best quality?

I've got a full res SD quicktime movie that I want to put onto DVD....how can I get the best quality out of this video on DVD through compressor....should I just choose best quality with a 2 pass vbr?

Does anyone have any tips for best quality imovie3 exports but keeping file.
Here is a quick Apple tutorial introduction that may be of some help:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/h264.html
I personally use the QVGA (AKA "Internet Content") H.264 settings for everything from family site clips to iPod compatible files. 400 kb with stereo 128kb audio should produce a good quality file at 29.97/30 fps which is on the order of 4 MBs per minute of content and are suitible for DSL/Cable QuickStart viewing. You can, of course further reduce file size by decreasing data rates, frame rates, target display size, etc. However, to my mind, the quality suffers and becomes unacceptable for my purposes. QT Kirk has other tricks such as further halving the dimensions and then doubling the playback display. This would get you down to the approximately 1 MB per minute mark or sub 1 MB rage when couple with reduced data/frame rates. Basically, you are only limited by your own idea as to the minimum level of acceptable quality.

Tips for when your webcam is not detected

EDIT: If you have recently upgraded to Windows 8 and are experiencing this issue please read this document.
Here are some tips for resolving a webcam not detected problem. I see this question get asked a lot so here are the steps you should take to resolve the issue.
To begin you should make sure the device is being detected by Windows. The following instructions are for Windows 7, but should be very similar for Windows Vista and Windows 8.
Option 1: Check Device Manager to make sure it is working properly.
Click your Start button, type “Device Manager,” and press Enter.
Once Device Manager loads click “View” and then “Show Hidden Devices.”
Locate the “Imaging Devices” section.
Note whether you see the webcam here.
If the webcam is listed, right click it and verify that it is not “Disabled.”
If webcam is listed and not disabled, move onto Option 2. If the webcam is not listed you will move onto Option 4.
Option 2: Allow Windows to Re-install the device.
While still in Device Manager right click on your webcam and select “Uninstall”
If prompted select “remove driver and driver package.”
Reboot your notebook and allow Windows to attempt to reinstall the webcam.
If Windows detects the webcam verify the functionality of the webcam.
If Windows does not detect the webcam and install it move onto Option 3.
Option 3: Manually install the drivers for your webcam.
Use this website to determine your product/model number.
Visit the HP Support Page and use this product number to visit your product’s specific page.
Go to “Drivers and Software” and locate the driver for your webcam. NOTE: the drivers for the webcam are sometimes bundled with the YouCam software.
Download and install this driver.
Reboot the PC.
Verify functionality.
Option 4: Manually re-detecting the hardware.
Disconnect all external devices.
Shut down the notebook.
Remove the battery and AC power.
Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds.
Reinstall the battery and AC power. Then turn the notebook on.
Once Windows is loaded go back to Device Manager.
Selection “Action” and then “Scan for hardware changes.”
If Device Manager detects the hardware allow it to install.
If Device Manager does not detect the hardware see Option 5.
Option 5: System Restore and System Recovery.
This is outlined very well in this document. Note that any data that is not backed up prior to a recovery will be lost.
Options 6: Repair or replacement.
If none of these solutions have worked for you it is likely that you are experiencing a hardware failure. It is possible to replace the webcam or reseat a loose ribbon cable. However, this is one of the more difficult repairs on the notebook. If you would like to attempt this repair you can visit your notebook’s support page and navigate to the “Manuals” section. There is normally a “Maintenance and Service Guide” for the notebooks, this will cover the disassembly of the notebook. You can then use HP Parts Surfer to locate the part for your notebook.
If you do not wish to attempt a repair yourself you can inquire with HP about a repair. For customers in the US/Canada you can call 1-800-474-6836. If you’re not in this region you’ll need to visit HP’s Support Site to get your area’s contact information.

Those are embedded in the LabVIEW resource files in the Resource directory
inside
of the LabVIEW directory. LabVIEW resource files are binary files with a
similar data
structure as the resource fork of Macintosh files. Although it's possible
to look into
these files with a hex editor for instance, it is hard to retrieve
information from them
and even harder to change anything inside of them.

Can't Read NTFS External HDD after Quick Tip Execution

I've recently shifted from Windows to OS X - and I wanted to use my 1TB Seagate External to transfer data from my old laptop to my Macbook Pro. I was aware that OS X cannot write to an NTFS drive and hence I executed the Quick Tip from this article to try and by-pass this:
http://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/quick-tip-how-to-write-to-ntfs-drives-in -os-x-mavericks--cms-21434
It worked like a charm for me a grand total of ONE TIMES. The next morning when I tried to re-connect my external, my Macbook can't seem to read the HDD anymore. Is there a way to fix this? If I go back to the Terminal and undo my previous changes, will that fix my problem or will that create more issues?
Please help - I can seem to access the External when i plug it to my old laptop, so thankfully it isn't corrupt or broken, but I want to be able to use it on my Mac too!

Do you think if I just upgraded to Yosemite this would solve itself?
I rather doubt it. That little tutorial has been posted here a number of times, too. I wouldn't recommend anyone using it. Especially not on a drive that has no backup of its contents.
You're in kind of a tight spot at the moment, being unable to copy everything off to the Windows laptop. Though technically, nothing on the external drive changed. The command you entered in Terminal changed OS X's behavior.
What I would do is this:
1) If the external drive is connected to the Mac and is on, dismount the drive and turn it off.
2) Use the Terminal command again to invoke the simple text editor nano and edit the file stab to remove the line you added. Basically, what you said above to undo the changes you made. Save the file and exit nano and then Terminal.
3) Restart the Mac.
When the desktop is back up, turn on the external drive. It should appear on the desktop in normal read only mode. If you prefer to leave the external drive as NTFS, use a commercial package to enable read/write access in OS X. It's only $20 for Paragon's NTFS software.
