Relinking where the filename has changed but tape name is the same, can it be done?

Should it be possible to relink to media based on matching tape name?
So i have X files in a folder, each has a unique tape name. Then some of those files are regenerated with different filenames but the tape name remains the same. I was naively assuming that the relocate dialogue, if you had tape name checked and nothing else would then match the files name for name and find them automatically.
That doesn't seem to be the case.
So am i wrong? Or is there a way of relinking several hundred files where the filename may change - how can i get premiere to relink to a file other than exact filename match?
thanks
Paul

Hi Fuzzy!
I did look at that but it's a large extra step that wouldn't be ideal. The idea is that i need a timeline just changing as files are updated in the background, i don't want to have an extra workflow step in there. I can probably arrange it so the filenames don't change (not ideal) but the key is that the linking dialogue appears to suggest that i should be able to relink using tape name but it just doesn't appear to work.
If i relink one of the files then i'd expect PPro to go off any find any other missing ones based on the tape name, but nope...
thanks anyway
cheers
Paul

  • I created a slide show in imovie for my daughters 21st with voice overs from friends and family which was all working fine but now the voice recordings are not playing at all.  Obviously some setting has changed but I can't find which one.

  • My e-mail has changed, but I purchashed some songs in iTunes using my old e-mail address as my account name... so when I try to play the sonngs I bought and paid for - it keeps asking me to authorize my PC first, but I don't remember the password!

And since the old e-mail address is no longer active, I can't even chenge the password- becasue it's sends the link to do so via e-mail!  Even when I use the "ask personal questions" option to verify and it asks me for my date of birth, I put it in and it still won't acccept.

  • After upgrading to iOS8 my Exchange account has changed to an invalid address. I can change it but after a day or two it changes back to the invalid address. any help on this would be great.

    after upgrading to iOS8 my Exchange account has changed to an invalid address. I can change it but after a day or two it changes back to the invalid address. any help on this would be great. Other user on our exchange server that have iOS 7 or lower do not have this problem. All iOS 8 users in our company have this problem

    have you deleted the account and re-added it?  Have you done a reset or restore as outlined in the iPhone user guide?  What troubleshooting have you done?

    My iPhoto hasn't upgraded at all, just the icon has changed, but the all graphic hasn't changed, whats the problem ?

    I'm having the same problem...it says that it upgraded (it says iPhoto 9.5 when I go into 'About iPhoto') and the new features seem to be there (when I click on share, I have the new option of ordering photo's like it shows in the pictures on the site, ordering a photo album, etc), but the main user interface is still the old one. Instead of having the new buttons on the bottom for Events, Faces, etc, I still have all of those on the old toolbar on the lefthand side...so confused haha.

  • Incoming mail server has changed, but greyed out in Mail, can't be corrected

    The incoming mail server for my website's email account has changed, but the incoming server box is greyed out and doesn't allow me to change it to the correct one.  I do not want to delete the account and start again because all mail and contacts associated with the account will be lost.  So far all the suggestions regarding greyed out incoming server boxes have to do with iCloud but while i use iCloud, I don't use it for mail or have an @iCloud email address.  They also involve starting from scratch with Mail, which would be a huge problem for me trying to save all my emails and reconstruct my mailboxes.
    What gives with this issue? a lot of people seemed to have it, though I saw no responses later than 2012.  Unlike other people, I can still get my mail, but the server certificate always comes up invalid.  I can tell Mail to trust it, but This greyed out thing is certainly a bug or unintended consequence.  I want to be able to change that field.

    Sorry, Guess I solved my own problem anyway.  Perhaps this will help others.  I unchecked "automatically detects and maintain account settings", closed and saved the mail preferences window ( I had also updated my outgoing server info which was not greyed out )  I closed Mail and when I reopened it, the incoming server was no longer greyed out and I could change it which I did.  I may recheck the auto detect box once I have ensured that the port settings are all correct.

  • Why is it that when I text pictures, the recipient does not receive them.  I've noticed that I have a camera roll which is where I choose pics from, but nothing in Photo Stream.  Can someone please let me know what the issue might be?  Thank you!

    Some phones can only send and recieve SMS messages. If the recipients phone doesn't support MMS they won't be able to recieve a text with a photo.
    To get your photos in Photo Stream, you'll need to setup iCloud. Check out this Apple article for more info -> iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ

  • How do i get the notes off my iphone 3gs that disappeared when i synced. The notes that appeared on my iphone where the same as were on my PC and they were 6months old. All the notes from January to June that i made on the iphone went somewhere?

    On 25th JUNE  I synched my ipone 3 gs to my PC with Outlook in Windows 7.
    All the voice memos that I had recorded using the iphone app where backed up and appeared on my itunes voice memos BUT all the NOTES written on my iphone NOTEs app where not synched to notes in Outlook on my PC…in fact…. all the notes that I had entered into my iphone were GONE and the notes that appeared on the iphone  where the same that were on my PC back in 27th Jan 2012…..so all the notes that I had entered into the iphone from January to June were gone…..NOT happy Jan!!
    I need to find the NOTES that were entered into the iphone app that are somewhere in my iphone..
    The Voice memos can across OK so why didn’t the NOTES…..and NO I did Not have icloud turned on as I have always used itunes as the back up…that is why I bought the iphone.

    Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"?  There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
    Read references for Home Sharing.
    iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing
    Home Sharing Support page - http://www.apple.com/support/homesharing/
    iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
    The above can get pretty complicated.  You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content.

  • Apple should make a macBook where the screen can turn around and become touch screen, for easier use

    Apple should make a macBook where the screen can turn around and become touch screen, for easier use. especially for when i go to uni

    Why touch and swivel screens arent a good idea on a laptop:
    The so-called Gorilla arm: Gorilla arm is a term describing the tired arms users get after reaching out and touching a screen for a long time.
    Added thickness: Touch screen panels are usually thicker than non-touch ones—especially if the touch panel has an active digitizer for pen support.
    Possibly shorter battery life: Touch screens require more power. Laptop Magazine compared a couple of touch screen laptops with their non-touch counterparts (same model and size) and found that the non-touch laptops lasted over an hour longer.
    Easy to break: Swivel screens are notoriously prone to break, especially the hinge and the cable that feeds the screen from the logic board which is being constantly twisted.
    And thats what the Ipad is for.

  • Is it possible for a saved path to open a folder where the user can select the file to open?

    I would like to retieve a link via database that would open a folder of drawings, word documents, pdf files, excel files etc., where the user can select which file they want. Selected files would open in which ever format they were with programs that are already installed on the users computer. For example, the link would open a folder where several solid works files were, and a couple of Word documents. The user would select one of the Solid Works files, and it would open up in the Solid Works installation on the users computer. Is this possible, or must a link point directly to a file?

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "link". Are you referring to a URL that uses a "file://" protocol?
    The standard File Dialog VI has a "start path" input that you can set so the file dialog opens to that folder.

  • Is it possible to have a section where the user can take notes?

    I want to create a iBook for my class to use on iPads.  Is there a way to create "Study Guide" where the user can type in notes or short answers?

    iBooks on iOS provides a notes feature built-in.
    You can investigate using an HTML Widget, but I wouldn't rely on it beyond sessions.

  • For the last month or so my icloud won't back up, it keeps telling me that there is too much storage and I need to delete some data. But I have deleted between 3-400 photos and it is still saying the same, can anyone please help

    For the last month or so my icloud won't back up, it keeps telling me that there is too much storage and I need to delete some data. But I have deleted between 3-400 photos and it is still saying the same, can anyone please help

    If they were deleted from your camera roll that should have resulted in a corresponding decrease in the estimated size of your next backup.
    If it's still saying that you don't have enough storage to back up, read through this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847.  It provides some suggestions for reducing your iCloud storage, such as deleting unneeded email. 
    The other area to look at is your text messages.  These are included in the backup.  If you have lots of photos and videos attached to your messages, that can significantly increase the size of your backup.  If that's the case, deleting these may make a big difference.
