Rendering question from a novice in the middle of an editing project

Hi,
I'm editing a 50 min program that is a live 2 camera shoot. Both consumer dv cameras, one new & one five or more years old. So as you can imagine, theres a real quality diff between the cameras, both in brightness values as well as color values.
So I tried experimenting in FCP color correction, just picking a shot & fooling around with brightness & color. Trying to get a feel for how they work etc. I never intended to render any of it. Then I went back to cutting for a few days & suddenly the program was "auto rendering". I didnt see a way to undo that at the time, so I've since continued cutting & saving, but now I'm ready to really tackle color correcting.
Before I do any wholesale correction to a camera shot, I want to undo all of that testing that the program auto rendered.
How do I do that?
Thanks

Well, if you want to undo all of what you've done - that is, filters & rendering - select all the affected clips and use the Remove Attributes feature.
To access that feature, either Control-click and select it from the contextual menu or press Option-Command-V on your keyboard. In the dialog box that comes up, select 'Filters' from the Video list, then click OK.
If you only want to undo the rendering (but leave the filters applied for further tweaking), a neat trick I learned here is to simply use the Clip Enable toggle. That is, select your clips and press Control-B once to disable them, then press Control-B again to enable those clips.
(In case it's not obvious, toggling clips trashes all associated render files)

Logic Pro Froze in the middle of saving a project.

Logic Pro Froze in the middle of saving a project. It stayed that way for 30 minutes. When I forced quit, it did not save the project, and my last save was an hour previous (including project backup files). Is there a way to recover what I did, or has that hour of work been lost?

Accept it and forget, it is lost for ever.
But.........your new ideas will surpass anything you did before!, I'm sure!
Have a nice day!

HT1338 MacBook Pro 13.3: Desktop screen will not come up when turned on. Screen is blank except for an icon of a folder with a question mark on it, in the middle of an otherwise blank screen, laptop making a clicking noise.

My MacBook Pro 13.3 MAC OS X v10.7 laptop will not come up. Blank screen comes up, no color/desktop, etc., only an icon of a folder in the middle of the screen with a question mark on the folder. Laptop making a clicking noise. Suggestions? Thanks!

It's under warranty. Take it in to have Apple fix it.
The "flashing ?" means the machine can't find the start up disk. The clicking noise is a give away that the drive is damaged.

Question from a novice user

Hi, I need to develop an application that
reads and writes complex data-centric XML
documents to an Oracle database.
I know about XML SQL Utility for Java but...
which choice do I have if I can't use the Java environment?
Should I write all my code or there is some other helpful utility? What about PLSXML?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Carla Delmonte

If you have Oracle8i, then you can use the "xmlgen" package that comes with the Oracle XML SQL Utility (and wrappers its Java functionality in a PL/SQL package) to do everything you can do from a Java program from PL/SQL. The XMLGEN package is created by running the "xmlgenpkg.sql" script in the ./lib directory that comes with the Oracle XML SQL Utility.
The PL/SQL package function xmlgen.insertXML() should do what you need.
The XML Parser for PL/SQL (not the same as PLSXML utilities) also is a PL/SQL wrapper on the Java XML Parser, and exposes the full functionality of the Java implementation through a set of easy-to-use PL/SQL packages.
PLSXML is not really an option since it does not support putting XML into the database, only getting it out.

Is importing from a dv tape the only way to edit a video clip?

There has to be a better way of editing my clips. I am importing my video from a dv tape then pausing the clip when I want it to stop. If I dont pause my clip at the exact moment, I have to clear that clip and try it again. I'snt there a way where I can load long clips in the clip pane then edit them down there, then drag the edited clip to my timeline? I am spendind alot of time with this old editing method.

Silly questions from a novice?

I have just downloaded i-tunes onto a computer and I am having several problems.
1. After I have imported/ripped a cd into i-tunes, the songs skip through without playing.
2. I went to the apple website and installed the latest i-tunes 6, and when I tried to import a cd, an error report came up, the one saying send error report etc.
3. I put a few mixes from a website into i-tunes and it plays them right through, but when I try to put them onto ipod it says that the songs cannot be recognised?
4. How do I take unwanted songs off of my ipod?
Is this a problem with the computer that I am using? And if so can I go to another computer and install my i-tunes there. Or can you only download i-tunes onto one comp?
So many questions I know, but I really dont have a clue and want to get some music onto my ipod.
Thanks in advance.

.4 To remove unwanted songs from your ipod connect your ipod to your computer, open itunes, then click on the ipod icon.
Now all the songs on your ipod are listed to the right. Simply select the songs you want to remove, click on edit->remove.
I believe they will be automatically removed from your playlists as well.
good luck!

DB Design Question From A Novice

I need help in structuring the code for a javabean that I'm writing. Basically, I want to have the bean run several different types of DB queries (e.g. "check username and password", "list the groups that the player is in", "list player attributes", etc).
The approach I started taking (out of simplicity) was to write a new method for each type of query I wanted to run. In other words, I wrote one method to "check username and password" and another to "list the groups that the player is in", etc. However, I noticed that this caused a lot of repeating in the code (e.g. con.createStatement(); and stmt.executeQuery() for all these methods). I posted this question on a different forum and someone suggested writing a generic method (that takes a String parameter containing a database query) and putting the output into a Vector object and returning that to the calling method. My question is: "is this the 'common' way of doing things?" Another question is, "are both approaches acceptable?" Personally, I think it seems a little easier to use the approach I started using but, I have to admit, all the repeating code troubles me. I'm learning this on my own so I don't really have someone to ask in person about this. I'm looking for the advice of someone with some experience in these matters. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

My question is: "is this
the 'common' way of doing things?" Basically yes. There are variations but the general idea is the same.
You might want to look at this...

And this....
http://java.sun.com/blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/TransferObject.html
Another question
is, "are both approaches acceptable?" Your original approach would become unmangeable in a larger application. But other than that yes.
Personally, I
think it seems a little easier to use the approach I
started using but, I have to admit, all the repeating
code troubles me. And the repeating code, from the perspective of learning, is probably a good thing to a certain extent. It allows you to recognize patterns and thus question alternatives. And then when you move on to something else more sophisticated you will understand why it better/appropriate as opposed to someone who just does it one way without ever understanding why. (And for small applications you do use exactly the method you are doing rather than using more sophisticated and thus complex solutions.) Additionally you are more likely to be able to more quickly debug applications because you will be able to seperate out core problems relating to the database versus problems that are related to the intermediate layers.

A quick question from someone new to the forum, PLEASE help.

Hey Guys/Girls I have had my iphone 3g for over 2 years now I am not under any warranty or anything like that and recently my Iphone 3g power/hold button stopped working. I was wondering if there is anyway to fix it that you guys know about and also how much it would cost me to get it fixed?
Thanks alot in advance for you help.

I understand that without the contract that i would of had to pay that much, and yes now this much time later with so many newer versions of the phone released it does sound insane that i would have to pay 200$ to replace this one, seeing as i would have to hand this one in for it and they can turn around and fix it for next to nothing and sell it refurbished.
I dont understand how you think 200$ for a 3 year old phone sounds like a reasonable price, unless your loaded or something. I'm not trying to be rude but in my opinion that is way to much money.
I thought that maybe I could get it fixed from apple for around 25-75$

A few questions from a novice

Hi all
My leopard was an unexpected gift from my parents for my daughter and I, I'm sure you can all imagine how delighted we have been and what an exciting new world that has begun to open up for us.
However I have hit a wall a few times over certain features and struggle to understand how to resolve these problems.
I find online advice either assumes I have a knowledge of mac's I just don't have or apple's own solutions to be a bit Ronald MacDonaldspeak: "Hey great, now you've got a mac, cool, have a nice day.."
I've made two phone calls, for 30 minutes, and then an hour, to technical support who couldn't even get my password going.. ( though they did make a point of telling me I was getting it wrong when I wasn't!)
Anyway, when you've stopped laughing out there guys can any of you help me with a few points:
a.)I can recieve e mail on my mac address but it won't send it.
b.)A friend has sent me a video greeting on my old BT Yahoo e mail address but I can't view it despite downloading windows Media for mac which started going on about something called Stuffit???!!
c.)Whenever I try to go online it fails and I have to restart once or twice.
d.) I can't get pictures on a CD onto i photo.
e.) I want to do sound and cam to friends on msn ,Yahoo messenger etc.I don't know anybody on i chat nor can my non-apple user friends download a version of i chat to connect from their side with mine - is this merely political, that it doesn't work because of some rivalry between the rest of the cyber world and apple?
If you can help I'd be most grateful but remember I really don't understand jargon jargon!

Check the settings for your "Outgoing mail server (SMTP)". The information for that should be available from your ISP.
b.)A friend has sent me a video greeting on my old BT Yahoo e mail address but I can't view it despite downloading windows Media for mac which started going on about something called Stuffit???!!
You may want to check into [Flip4Mac|http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv_download.htm], which will allow you to view Windows Media videos with Quicktime on the Mac.
c.)Whenever I try to go online it fails and I have to restart once or twice.
Can you elaborate on that? What happens when it fails?
d.) I can't get pictures on a CD onto i photo.
Again, more information would be helpful. You should be able to simply drag the pictures from the CD onto the iPhoto window. Again, what happens when it fails?
e.) I want to do sound and cam to friends on msn ,Yahoo messenger etc.I don't know anybody on i chat nor can my non-apple user friends download a version of i chat to connect from their side with mine - is this merely political, that it doesn't work because of some rivalry between the rest of the cyber world and apple?
iChat works with AOL IM, but I believe not with MSN or Yahoo. I agree that it's dumb that the two camps aren't compatible, but it's not an Apple vs The World situation.

Questions from a novice

several basic questions that my java programmer's reference isn't making clear to me:
a. is String a primitve datatype? or is it treated as an object
b. whatever String happens to be, can there be a List of Strings?
c. if it's not right to have List li = new List(); that is instantiate a list, how come it's possible to instantiate something that implements a list e.g. List li = new classa.getSomeList();
thanks a lot.

Interfaces cannot be instantiated but classes that implement the List interface can. i.e.

TS2845 ok i answered these security questions from itunes and forgot the answers how do i reset them or get them

Ok I answered the questions on itunes security and forgot the answers how do I reset them or get the answers to purchase songs

It's used as a security measure so being able to reset is probably unlikely.
Contact iTunes and see what they suggest
