Quicktime files offline - When re-linked, they are out of sync.

Opened a project and some Quicktime files were offline. When I re-linked media, shots were out of sync. Is this because Quicktimes dont use time code? Is there a way to avoid this. Any help much appreciated.

Quicktime does support time code - that is the whole underlying concept of how FCP works. Some factors that can contribute to time-shifts on relinking:
opening FCP5 projects in FCP6
speed changes
odd audio sample rates
non-native quicktime formats, such as clips created with SnapZ Pro
That is not to say that any of these conditions will cause sync shifts, I use all these features and workflows and almost never have issues.
The biggie is that you need to be sure you are linking to the right clips. How did they go offline in the first place? How were they created? Your clips don't happen to be named Untitled1, Untitled2, etc. do they?

  • My ichat buddies always appear offline when i know they are online and I appear offline to them

    A couple months ago my ichat was working fine. Then all of a sudden all my buddies appeared offline when I knew for a fact they were online and I appeared offline to them as well. The only solution I have found is to delete each buddy and re-add them again and they magically show up online but after a while, like a couple days, they all appear offline again. I changed the port to 443 and deleted and re-added my jabber account and deleted the ichat.plist but nothing works.
    Any help is appreciated!

    Hi,
    This could be down to the priority that each account and each login can have.
    In Messages you can set the Priority that the app (and that account has)
    The Earlier iChat apps did not have this setting despite it actually using a Priority.
    The iChat versions is set to 25.
    This is the same Priority as the web mail page login.
    In this case the last login would take the "lead" - you would not  always be logged off the other login but the messages sent would go to the last login.
    I don't use Jabber enough to say if the 0 in Messages is higher or lower than the 25 in iChat or the web login.
    I presume that 0 is in  fact null and 25 is the highest that can be set.
    Anyway the idea is that you can log in on various devices and use the Priority setting to make one the "first Receiver" if you will.
    I have always thought it defaulted to the next device on the next highest priority.
    I.e. the Home computer could be left on but a Work computer would have a "higher" priority and take the "lead" and a phone app could be set "higher" still and override thing when you are not at a computer.
    I would wonder, based on your comments, whether these Buddies have logins with the same Priorities  and when one device logs out the other(s) are not taking over, making them look Off Line.

  • Photos recently changed from sequential numbering to date/timestamp.  When I import into apps for editing they are out of order.  What can be done to change back to sequential numbering instead of date/timestamp?

    Photos recently changed from sequential numbering to date/timestamp.  When I import into apps for editing they are out of order.  What can be done to change back to sequential numbering instead of date/timestamp?

    The date information is taken from the camera which writes it to the file. This needs to be set to the correct date and time in the camera itself.
    The order the images are shown in the Library mode is set by clicking on the sort button in the tool bar, which if not showing can be activated from view, tool bar. There are different sort orders that can be applied including sorting by file name. You can also sort by dragging the images to the order you wish them to appear in by selecting user order.

  • Why can't I delete mp3 files from my Trash?  They are not locked.

    Why can't I delete mp3 files from my Trash? They are not locked.  I compressed them into a zip file and then couldn't delete that file either.  I've restored them and tried deleting again but no luck.  Can anybody please help?  iOS 10.8.5

    You can't empty the Trash or move a file to the Trash
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on solving Trash issues. You can also try using Trash It! 5.1 to fix the problem. Or you can try this:
    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder and paste the following at the prompt:
         sudo rm -Rf ~/.Trash/*
    Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not echo to the screen. Press RETURN again.

    Yes. you should keep your media in iTunes, and indeed you should also keep a backup of your library as well. if you have the device set up for manual management then the content would remain on it when deleted from the library, but you would have no way to restore the device if there was a problem.

    Make that four.
    If you have any commercially advertised/available antivirus software installed on your Mac, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the AV developer's website.
    Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X and can negatively affect OS X performance and operation.
    Do you have apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac? These types of apps, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
    Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary. They really aren't.
    There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac.
    Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
    Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
    It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
    The risk to your system and data is too great a risk!
    Search the web to learn how to correctly and properly uninstall these kinds of apps.
    They all uninstall differently.

  • After December 2013 update PPro says merged clips are out of sync. They're not...

    After I downloaded the latest update (December 2013) and opened my feature length film project, almost all of my sequences tell me that the merged clips (dual system) are out of sync. Yet, when playing them back, they are all perfectly in sync. In fact when I use 'slip into sync' option, the clips go OUT of sync. One clip, for instance says: Video +10:14, Audio -10:14. They all follow the same pattern. Any ideas what this was caused by? Should I just ignore it? Thanks.

    same problem here, new merged clips are marked as out of sync (+- 10:15), allthough perfectly in sync.
    this happens independently if i check the "use audio timecode from clip" option or not.
