Quicktime 7.5.5 update breaks FCP?

FCP/Studio 2 and all my updates are current. My FCP project was fine till I updated QT to 7.5.5. Anybody else have this issue? What can I do to go backwards with QT?
thanks for the replys
Dan

after playing around with view settings, etc, I started playing with the canvas settings and the image, image/wireframe tab was reset somehow when I did the update to QT 7.5.5. I was working in FCP and LiveType, saved and closed them down. All cool, ejected my firewire drive and started the download for the new iTunes 8 and QT 7.5.5. FCP worked fine till after the update. So, if the FCP canvas is black after the 7.5.5 update, click that tab and it comes back

  • QuickTime 7.3.1 Update...Does It Fix The FCP Issue?

    QuickTime was just updated again. does anyone know if this fixes the 7.3 problem that caused FCP to "lock up" for a few frames during import?

    William,
    See this post.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5847657&#5847657
    7.3.1 Update Does NOT fix FCP problem, only a security update.
    FCP 4.5 and below is not compatible with QT 7.3. I guess this is going to force us to upgrade FCP, I will not do a downgrade like some people suggested.

  • Did Quicktime Update Break Toast CD-R Playlists burn,  Toast Error =-50  ?

    I updated Quicktime and ever since I get a Toast error message
    " couldn't complete the last command because of a Mac OS Error Result Code = -50"
    There is a little Toast icon on the error screen, so Toast is blaming the Mac OS...
    I can't find the old Quicktime anywhere 7.1 or 7.01 to downgrade (I got 7.1.1 update). I never had any problems burning Playlists by dragging and dropping into Toast, from my large Apple Lossless library. Out of about 12 tries I got one song to start filling the RAM cache, instead of stopping before that point and showing the error message.
    I CAN copy a CD to the FW burner from the internal drive, but just not burn a playlist to CD-R, except for one song, Once.
    I CAN burn an MP3 disc with Toast just, not a standard CD-R.
    Used Disc Warrior, switched cables around. Turned everything off and plugged it back in agin. Played with all the Quicktime preferences both turning off and on, Got rid of extraneous applications and cleaned up my itunes settings and library.
    Also Played with all the disc settings and no change.
    There is a small chance that a downloaded Itunes Library Manager script could have been a bad influence, as well as a Icon Changing Application called candy bar. I removed the icon changer and haven't fiddled with the Library transfering scripts much, they stay in the script folder..but who knows? Itunes library looks in good order as far as I can see. Even reinstalled Toast and Quicktime...
    I got a little carried away with downloading interesting applications and now I'm not sure which or maybe all of them broke my itunes specifically Apple Lossles to CD (aiff) burner in Toast. I can still burn iTunes CD's, but prefer the song titles that Toast offers.
    Any idea where I should or any other tests to narrow down the bug? Or where to look or what actions to take to try to get CD playlist burn in Toast fixed? I have read some other Panther users having problems with the latest Quicktime upgrade and music burning bugs, but not enough to look like a trend.
    Thanks.
    Sid

    I'll answer my own question
    Quicktime 7.1.1 Toast itunes update Fiasco
    Panther 10.3.9 Toast 7.0 and iTunes 6.5.2
    Burning Apple Lossless files from iTunes playlist with Toast (for CD TEXT )
    Started with Quicktime 7.01... worked, until I upgraded Quicktime to 7.1.1
    BIG MISTAKE!
    After throwing a lot of things away and reloading lots of software, I finally tracked the problem down to Quicktime. Not much help with similar problems in the Toast or Quicktime forums.
    After updating my Quicktime 7.01 to 7.1.1 I could no longer Burn Apple Lossless playlists to CD-R using Toast 7.0 or the upgraded Toast 7.2. Kept getting ERROR Messages that Mac OS would not complete the command because of a problem (-50)
    To get a working version of Quicktime I had to reinstall my Panther OS discs and start with Quicktime 6.5 then find an archived update to get Quicktime 7.04.
    There is no downgrade for Quicktime 7.1.1
    This is not nice!
    There is a downgrade of Quicktime 7.04 to 7.01, where I started, but chose to keep the Quicktime 7.04 because it works with the Toast update of 7.02, so far.
    Quicktime 7.04 will not work with Toast 7.0 Gets another Toast ERROR message that file cannot be found.
    Quicktime 7.04 Requires upgrading to Toast 7.02.
    I am keeping the Quicktime 7.04 to 7.01 downgrader handy, as well as the original Toast 7.0, just in case.
    Whew! there went about 12 hours of my life!

  • 5.1.4 update breaks HDV capture? Unable to Initialize Capture Device

    Problem:
    Final Cut Pro cannot capture standard 1080i60 HDV footage from Sony FX1 camcorder. FCP reports "Unable to Initialize Capture Device" when the log and capture window is opened. However, the footage CAN be captured in iMovie (which is interesting, and unacceptable). When HDV>DV downconvert option on camcorder is activated, footage CAN be captured as anamorphic SD, so the camcorder and FW do work.
    The problem is occuring on a rock-solid FCP system that I use on a regular basis (mainly for SD editing). It has been approx 2 weeks since I last attempted a HDV capture, the system has been working great with SD footage (still does).
    Factors that have changed to my knowledge since HDV capture was last functioning properly:
    *Added a new external FW drive into regular usage (a different brand than normally used, no issues with it so far).
    *Updated FCP to 5.1.3, and then 5.1.4 when that fix came out. All SD captures and work have been fine so far.
    Here's what's interesting...I had a copy of the FCP v5.0.4 .app that I had saved an archive of prior to the crossgrade update. Guess what? I can load it up, and it captures HDV without any problems! With that in mind, this looks like an FCP 5.1.4 issue. But I am at a loss on how to proceed further in troubleshooting. Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

    ---NOTES---
    What I have tried:
    *Attempted capture with a different Sony FX1 camcorder.
    *Swapped firewire cables and system firewire ports.
    *Attempted capture with camera FW chained to an external HDD.
    *Unplugged all other external firewire devices from the system.
    *Trashed FCP prefs using FCP Rescue 5, created new project using Easy Setup (for HDV).
    *Tried different variations of FCP A/V settings, tried all the HDV FW device control presets and the HDV AIC capture preset.
    *Per instructions at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852 I removed the numbered Quicktime pckg Receipts and re-installed the latest version (7.13). Post-install/reboot, I repaired Disk Prefs and Verified the disk using Disk Util.
    *Have also attempted installing QT 7.13 2 and 3 times in a row, also trying disk prefs repair BEFORE the post-install reboot.

    I think I figured out this vexing problem. I too was having the same issue. Check to see that your Quicktime is newer than 7.1.2. If it isn't you'll have to upgrade it. I only upgraded to 7.1.6 here because I was afraid of going to a really new version. http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime716formac.html. After I upgraded my quicktime, I ran software update and the Final Cut Pro 5.1.4 update appeared. I hoipe this helps.

  • Epson scan software conflict with Quicktime 7.1.1 update

    Has anyone discovered the QT 7.1.1 update breaks Epson's scan software? In the last line of the crash logs appears quicktime 7.1.0.
    Just curious if it's generic or local to me.

    Thanks, probably something else then.

  • What are the things 10.6.8 update break?

    After the 10.6.8 update I am having so many issues,
    first, the %100 cpu usage of dock, disabled parallels, and now it is ok,
    then, a reboot and I am unable to login, I enter my password, it begins the login process, then logs me out,
    if I persist, it logs me in after a couple of tries, but each time a few of my applications are missing at random, and the environment is very very unstable, sometimes I see no desktop background, sometimes I start firefox and I am logged out again.
    I've seen some people suggesting removal of login items to resolve a similar but not the same issue, so I'm inclined to think overall, there is an issue with some applications which 10.6.8 update breaks.
    For starters my login items are:
    GrowlHelper
    Geektool
    EyeTv Helper
    Canon IJ Network scanner
    ituneshelper
    Magicprefs
    Sophosuiserver
    Does anyone have any problems with any of these?
    I only verified the parallels desktop 6 issue up to now.

  • Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    You already seem to know what the issue is, it is the parallax feature that was added to iOS 7.  From your rant, it appears that your attempt to work around this was not successful.  According to the Apple documents I've seen, they recommend that you enlarge your image (not reduce it).  Make your image have excess space on all sides, which is not displayed on the screen.  This way, when you tilt your device one direction or another, it can shift the image to give the appearance of 3D. 
    As a photographer, I like to use the full frame of my images, but I also know that I need to leave room around the image as well.  I have some photos I have taken that I can't use because I have them cropped too tightly too, but I have others that work just fine.  Just remember that part of the image file is "off screen" so that if iOS has to shift the image up it has some image that can scroll onto the screen.  It needs this space on all sdes, so just make youre images larger, and keep in mind that a portion on each side will be outside the normally visible screen...  If you don't like this feature, you can always go into the settigns and turn it off.

  • Mac OSX 10.4.8 Update Breaks Raid Striping -- System will no longer boot

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie from the PC world with a Mac Pro. For the last 8 hours I've been trying to get a Raid-0 configuration to work with no success.
    The Raid array constructs ok and the system boots. Once that's done the Software Update screen arrives and I would select install all... then the machine would not boot. I get a Grey Shade like affect and the message to power off and restart. Powering off does nothing.
    So I started again for the Nth time and added each Software Update individually. All loaded and rebooted successfully until the 10.4.8 Update.
    As soon as that loads, installs and restarts the machine will not boot.
    I called Apple's Tech Support and they told me they do NOT support RAID on this machine. I said what are you talking about. They put me on hold talked to a supervisor and came back with the same story. I just don't get it...
    So anyone have any insight and advice on why the update breaks my Raid-0? What can I do to get over the problem (I'd like to have the RAID...)?
    Thanks for the assistance.
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Yes, you needed an emergency boot drive anyway to repair your RAID boot drive. Just use the same one in addition to a working clone or backup of your regular system.
    Apple made it easy to install or update security updates and system updates from an alternate drive (but you will have to use the stand-alone (combo preferably) updaters instead - which many use already as normal part of upgrades for years now (they seem more useful and reliable).
    My preference is a dedicated boot drive with OS and apps and minimal home directory - no media files - and fast, like 10K Raptor. I use RAID for my home directory so it isn't on the boot drive for years to improve performance and keep the OS separate. Never a problem and nice mix.

  • Here is a solution to the Quicktime 7.1.5 Update conflicts - it works!

    Any program that is having a problem since the Quicktime 7.1.5 Update should benefit from reverting back to QT version 7.1.3 . My TurboTax works again, because I downgraded to QT 7.1.3 .
    You can't manually remove all of the files necessary to uninstall QT 7.1.5. Don't even try.
    Don't uninstall and re-install your programs. It is a waste of time, and will not fix the problem.
    You can choose to re-install the operating system, and it should work. It is not necessary, though, and is a hassle.
    This is how you can easily downgrade QuickTime 7.1.5 to version 7.1.3:
    1. Download Quicktime 7.1.3 installer:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime713formac.html
    2. Mount the installer package (Double click QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg so that it opens and shows the open box icon labeled QuickTime713.pkg). This is very important.
    3. Download and install Pacifist from this location:
    http://www.charlessoft.com/
    4. Open Pacifist (You can do so without going through the registration process. You can do that later if you decide to pay.)
    5. Drag the QuickTime713.pkg icon to the Pacifist dialog box. When you release it, another window opens with a list of files. The top file is labeled "Contents of QuickTime713.pkg."
    (Please note that if you mistakenly select the unmounted .dmg file into Pacifist instead of the .pkg, there will be an installation but without an effect. )
    6. Click to highlight "Contents of QuickTime713.pkg."
    7. Go to the "File" Menu in the Menu Bar and choose "Install Files to Default Locations" from the pulldown menu.
    A dialog box will open asking if you want to install entire contents. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.
    8. Be sure to check the box that says "Use Administrator Privileges" if it is not already checked.
    9. Click "Install" and carefully read any further instructions as they pop up. You will respond with the equivalent of YES every time, even if asked to replace every file for QuickTime. Take your time, and don't assume that you know what the instructions say without reading them.
    10. When the install process is finished, restart the computer. You are through with Pacifist, so don't open it again (unles you decide to Register and pay).
    11. Once again, open QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click QuickTime713.pkg to do a normal installation one more time. After the install is done, restart your Mac one last time. That's it.
    By the way - NEVER keep your tax return data file in the same folder as the TurboTax application. You might accidentally delete it when uninstalling TurboTax. Put it in a folder with your other tax prep documents.
    It took me approximately one hour from the time I started downloading QT 7.1.3 and Pacifist until I was completely finished and using TurboTax again. I have a 400 Mz PowerPC Sawtooth G4, so your time may be better. Good luck!
    Oh, and don't forget to pay for Pacifist. They deserve it!

    Hello,
    Seems someone from Apple corrected the problem.
    I just downloaded a new version, again, due to upgrade to a larger HDD, and the new installer does have Apple name identified.
    So try it again.

  • PLEASE HELP! STP changes not updated in FCP

    I've watched tutorials for STP and I can't get a simple process to work.
    I have original footage in FCP opened and I am working on resyncing VO over audio in STP.
    In FCP, I select all and "send to Soundtrack PRO Multitrack"
    The project opens in STP, but when I make changes, deleting original source audio tracks and replace them...SAVE the progress but I go back to FCP to see my work updated, as it does in Motion when you send it out, BUT NOTHING IS UPDATED or changed in FCP!!
    What am i not doing, or doing wrong???? I refuse to do any further tedious syncing if my work won't ultimatley be updated in FCP to finalize the project.
    PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN.

    it's a stop motion project, so the compressor was set to photo-jpeg, field dominance to none, video processing to "render in rgb". the timeline also contained livetype dynamic fonts and textures on top of the pictures. in the middle of my work i spotted a few artifacts and eventually managed to get rid of them by setting field dominance to lower field. in a few moments, i noticed the livetype textures had gone invisible.

    What arrow?
    Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
    If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.
