Quit without saving

I just finished for the day and hit command Q. FCP usually asks me if I want to save and I do.
This time it just quit without asking. Fortunately, I have autosave set for every 10 minutes.
But I am still annoyed that I have to redo the last 10 minutes of work.
Any thoughts on why this happened?
Thanks.

Normally, if you quit FCP and it doesn't ask you if you want to sve any changes, it means that there were no changes made since the last time you saved.
If, for some reason, it was an error, you can always use the last Autosave like you sggest. Of course, any work done after that would be lost.

  • Accidently quit without saving.  Is everything lost?

    I just recorded a 30 minute podcast.  I acidentally quit Garageband before I saved it.  When I relaunch the 200mb Garageband file, it's completely empty of any audio files.
    I'm hoping someone can tell me that Garageband has saved this audio somewhere on my iMac.
    Why would Garageband not ask me if I'd like to save, before I quit?  Final Cut does that.  Word does that.  Every other app I can think of does that.
    Help!

    assuming you didn't save it after re-opening it, find the file in Finder, ctrl-click the file and choose Show Package Contents; any audio files that exist are in the media folder.
    drag them to the desktop, open a new GB project and drop them into the timeline.
    if you did save after re-opening the file, then the audio files no longer exist.

  • Close Excel com object without saving changes?

    Hi, I am trying to write a script which opens each of 31 excel workbooks, retrieves a value from a cell, and closes each workbook after retrieving.
    My code so far:
    $day=1
    $excel = New-Object -ComObject Excel.Application
    $excel.Visible=$True
    $workbook= $excel.Workbooks.Open("C:\Path|to\File\1_"+$day+"_14.xlsx")
    $workbook.sheets.item(1).activate()
    $WorkbookTotal=$workbook.Worksheets.item(1)
    $value = $WorkbookTotal.Cells.Item(7,13)
    $value.Text #this should give you back the Value in that Cell
    $excel.close()
    My problem is that when the code hits the $excel.close() method, the file stays open, and prompts for saving changes.  I don't know why it thinks there are changes, but what I want is to close the workbook without saving changes.
    I've just closed 44 open browser tabs, and have tried many things over the last hour, but can't seem to get this one.
    If anyone has any advice on how to do this, it would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi,
    Please replace below code:
    $excel.close()
    with
    $workbook.close($false)
    $excel.quit()
    Hope this helps.

  • Logic crashes when using the "Close Project without Saving" key command

    The "Close Project without Saving" key command does not work in LP8. When I try to use it, Logic crashes. This is reproducible on my system. Can anyone try and confirm this?

    For me this shortcut is quite important on stage when I have to switch songs as fast as possible. It also is foolproof because on stage I never want to save with all the controller changes I did during a performance.
    Just hit the key command, load the next song, done.

  • Is it possible to disable escape command that is quiting without warning?

    Come on! Could you tell me any professional application, that discards all your work after you have pressed just one key?…
    Any application, whether professional or otherwise, that uses modal dialog boxes follows the universal convention where the Escape key equals hitting the CANCEL button in the modal dialog box.
    Remember that ACR is just a plug-in, and the way that plug-in is designed is to work through a single modal box with multiple tabs and settings.
    Petrbr9 wrote:
    …In some applications Esc is rolling out the last action but not the whole work…
    …and there is your answer: until you hit either Done, Open or Save in the ACR modal dialog box, you have not applied any action to your work at all, you have just been looking at the preview when you manipulate the sliders and fields in the various tabs.
    It's no different than calling up a filter in Photoshop, say a noise-reduction filter, and hitting the Escape key before applying the settings to the image after fiddling with the sliders.
    My advice remains to keep in mind ACR is a modal dialog box and stop hitting the Escape key before applying your settings to the image.  It is that simple.  After all, the darned Escape key is physically located way out in the back of left field on the keyboard for that reason.

  • Display image in JPanel without saving any file to disk

    Hi,
    I am fetching images from database. I am saving this image, display in JPanel and delete it. But this is not actually I want.
    I wish to fetch this image as stream , store in memory and display in JPanel without saving any fiel in disk.
    I wonder if it is Possible or any used implementation that I can use in my project. Any idea or experienced knowledge is enough.
    Thanks

    In what format is the image coming to you from the database? If it's an InputStream subclass, just use javax.imageio.ImageIO:
    InputStream in = getImageInputStream();
    BufferedImage image = null;
    try {
       image = ImageIO.read(in);
    } finally {
       in.close();
    // ... Display image in your JPanel as you have beenIf you receive the image as an array of bytes, use the same method as above, but with a ByteArrayInputStream:
    byte[] imageData = getImageData();
    ByteArrayInputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(imageData);
    BufferedImage image = null;
    try {
       image = ImageIO.read(in);
    } finally {
       in.close();
    // ... Display image in your JPanel as you have been

  • I want to use Thunderbird without saving e-mails to PC. How is this possible?

    I want to use Thunderbird without saving any e-mail to local folder in my PC.
    Can you please help me on this?
    thanks.

    There are two types - POP and IMAP
    You would need to logon to your webmail account using a browser and select the option to use IMAP forwarding - assuming that option is available.
    Pop mail accounts can only access the server Inbox.
    Emails are downloaded to your computer and stored in your Thunderbird Profile folder. So this type may not suit your requirements.
    IMAP mail accounts offer a remote view of folders and emails stored on the server.
    You subscribe to see those folders. Then Headers are downloaded and when you select to view an email, the email is downloaded to a temp cache.
    Subscribed folders that are synchronised, download a copy of the folder and store it in your Thunderbird Profile. But these folders are constantly updated to reflect what is stored on the server.
    So your best option would be to create IMAP mail account, subscribe to see folders on the server, but do not select to synchronise those subscribed folders.
    Emails stored in your Thunderbird Profile on your computer load faster than those that have to be retrieved from the server each time.
    Info on synchronising, so you can see how to enable/disable.

  • Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted.  Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file?  Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb again?

    Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted.  Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file?  Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb from the App Store again?  My problem is my 4Gb/month allowance on a 12 month contract.  I cannot purchase a data block from my ISP and although my speed is theoretically slowed to 64k after reaching my 4Gb, it actually ceases to download in reality.

    HI tasclix, it depends what you mean by an OS X boot drive.
    If you want a recovery disk from which you can reinstall (by re-downloading) or recover from a time machine backup, then nbar is correct.
    If, however, you want to boot and run the OS X installer from the USB drive (so that you don't need to download again), then you will need a copy of "Install OS X  Mavericks.app"; see this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5856
    Before downloading again, search your system to see if the installer is still there - it's usually in the /Applications folder unless it has been deleted, but check your whole system for it anyway, you never know, you might still have it somewhere.

  • How can I get Firefox to directly open a file (like a torrent) without saving it at all

    It seems that up until about 3 months ago - I could get firefox to download a file and open it directly without saving it to any particular place. This is particulary useful for downloading say a torrent or, for that matter, any other file I wish to use within another program but do not need to save the file.
    Now I have to download the file, chose where it will be saved, open the folder click on the file, and then delete the now un-needed file. A huge hassle.
    I am sure I could do this until a few months ago. For some reason I cannot now.
    Please help

    Make sure that the file has the .html file extension.
    That should be sufficient.
    Windows hides some file extensions by default.
    Among them are .html and .ini and .js and .txt, so you may only see file name without file extension.
    You can see the real file type (file extension) in the properties of the file via the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer.
