Save as Project question

My templete has a midi track with a drum kit. In the new song I have deleted this track and it's regions but when I save the newly named song as a project it still wants to save the drum kit and it's regions.
How do I stop this?
BP

What I would do before saving it again as a template is to go to the audio window, delete all files there, go to the arrange widow , and delete all sequences and regions. Then choose the Save as Template option, again, and name it the same way to replace the old one.

Problem with "Save as Project"

Hi!
I recently saved a song "as project" from the file menu. A folder was created on my desck top with the name of the song but it does not contain a .lso file to load it into Logic Express. The folder does contain another folder with audio files but that's it.
Question- how can I get these fles back into Logic and will they load up correctly (in the proper tracks, correctly synchronized etc) ?
I did some digging and found that there is supposed to be options under File>project> but these are greyed out...
I would be very greatful for any help in getting into these files and resuing the work done so far.
Thanks
Dale

I have used that option on every songs I do in LE, and it always gives me the .Iso files in the project folder. Sometimes I'll start a song in GarageBand for the ease of tossing out a drum part to a scratch guitar, and then I open it with LE, save as Project, and it works the same way every time. I have changed very little prefs in LE from the default.

How do I save a project I have worked on in iMovie?

This is my first time working on iMovie and I'm used to PCs were you can File>Save something you are working on. So with iMovie, if I want to save a project, how do I do this?

Thanks for replying. I see that my project is saved in a folder that I created. Its still in the ".rcproject" file type. I'm not able to open this file by clicking on it or by importing it to iMovie.
This may seem like a dumb question, but am I suppose to go to "Share > export > export movie" in order to have this file saved so that I can work on it later on?
Or is this ".rcproject" suppose to open in iMovie?
Answering your question - Yes, I've clicked on the "projects" tab and it says "create new project", but there is nothing under this project. It's blank, instead of showing my project that I have created.

FCP Backup Project Questions

Hi Everyone,
Say I had several questions and was hoping another FCP user could answer them for me.
I recently had a hard drive fail that housed all of the captured video for a project that was complete, but had not yet been exported out. A real bummer.
I did not worry about it too much since it was only the captured video and audio and thought all I needed to do was just go in, select the offline files and recapture the footage. Boy was I wrong.
This had been my backup philosophy thus far, backup my project files, graphics, music, etc etc and dump all of the captured video and audio on the project, since I had the original tapes. If I needed to go back into the project I could just recapture. I developed this from other users suggestions from here.
Well on this project, when the hard drive crashed, since I had all the same files I would normally backup I assumed it would be the same deal. I have never had to go back to a backup project so I had not tested this before.
When I attempt to batch capture the original footage, some captures fine, while others come up prompting me to change a file name because one already exists and even on stuff that will recapture, it comes up saying it cannot be reconnected because the capture footage does not match. Sigh. I am puzzled by these messages since, the settings for the recapture are the same, and the file cannot exist since ALL the footage is gone.
So what I am faced with now is confusion over what is a good, solid way to backup ones projects. Am I doing something wrong when setting projects up that cause them to be such a headache to recover? Many of the projects I do are using a 24p Adavanced setting. Sometimes I remove the advanced pulldown when capturing, sometimes after I have captured. My setups, for the most part, are normally the same.
Can I start a dialogue with some fellow editors out there who have some experience here? I am real curious to know what works for you and any thoughts on what could be causing my current woes.
Thanks so much!

Ok, well here is where I am at:
I performed the XML export as suggested, but ran into the same issues. Let me give a more detailed description of the issues.
After the hard drive crashed and I lost all my captured video and audio, I replaced the drive and named it the same as the previous one.
So when I went back into my project, the normal message pops up that items are offline, etc. I hit continue past this and tried to batch capture the footage again. On several clips FCP (version 5.0.4) would come back reporting that there was a Duplicate Item Name and try to force me to rename it or skip (Why does it not give an option to overwrite??). Now in the bin there is only 1 clip with the name, so I am assuming it is picking up on something else. On other clips, it does not prompt this, but when I have finished recapturing (mind you I have left the box checked to use the logged settings) it comes back to report that the clip cannot be reconnected because the beginning or end times are different, etc, etc.
So per the great suggestions on here I exported (with the Source showing in browser) the whole thing to XML and then imported it into a new project. Same problems as before. So I looked through the Source in the browser and noticed some stated they were offline, while others stated they were on the old crashed drive. So I set them all to be offline and told it to delete the files from the hard drive.
Again I have tried to recapture to no avail.
I am now attempting to blow out the hard drive and wipe it clean, then rename it to see if I can get FCP to recapture the darn footage.
Does anyone else have any suggestions??
And furthermore, what is the best method to backing up a project?? Should I go through and take all the clips offline in FCP, deleting the footage and then as I have been doing, save the project file, graphics, etc, etc. Basically, how do I get FCP to recapture stuff if I ever have such a problem or need to go back into a backed up project again??
Thanks ALL!

I have elements 9 and just a day ago everything was fine but now all of a sudden any time I try to convert or save my project or even burn it to a DVD the program shuts down on me.

Is the crash/shutdown for this one specific project or does it occur in new projects as well?
On what computer operating system are you running Premiere Elements 9 and are you running Premiere Elements as the 9.0.1 Update?
In cases such as these, the first factor to rule in or out are the preferences/setting file. Here you want to delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file.
The directions to its location will vary with the operating system. So the operating system information is important to post. Some of the many factors
that we need to evaluate
a. does the problem exist with and without antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
b. are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse.
c. does your computer need a clean up/clear out - is your computer optimized
Your answers to the questions above will help us to customize and plan appropriate troubleshooting strategy. So, let us start with the above and then decide what next.
Thank you.

Where is best place to save xcode projects?

Hi,
I am a newbie on xcode and before I start I have a general question where to save xcode projects the best way?
Best regards,
Thomas

Use whatever is convienient for your skills, resources, budget. Do it now...don't wait and don't use something that you'll just ignore later and stop using.
At least put up a Time Machine backup...other than that, if you're familiar with SVN/GIT, you can search Xcode Help on: resources ...to see details of putting those into place, etc.

Ho to save a project

In HP Photo Creations, I can find how to open a project, how to view saved projects, and how to view recently viewed projects. I cannot, however, find any screen, any button, any field, to SAVE a project. I'm beginning to suspect that the ability to save a project was removed from the software. Is that the case? If not, where the heck is the "Save" button? On what screen? On what part of that screen? Thanks.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Sorry, I found the solution and should have posted it here.
Even though I don't use IE, the HP software does, and it was an IE (IE = Internet Explorer) setting that I'd played with in the past in an attempt to get an online video to play correctly. The souce of my problem may or may not apply to someone else; it's a bit unlikely, but here goes...
I've re-created and solved the problem several times, and I've determined that ALL of the following steps are requried. Don't skip anything.
Start IE
Tools \ Internet Options
Advanced tab
Un-check the top option: Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering
OK
Exit IE
Reboot the computer
Start IE
Tools \ Internet Options
Advanced Tab
Reset…
No need to check the Personal Settings box
Reset
Close
Exit IE
At this point the Save buttons are present in HP Photo Creations.
Even if you don't have that same option checked, going through the reset process may fix your problem. If resetting doesn't immediately solve the problem, try a reboot afterward.

VB6 - can't save a project with flash.ocx control - why won't Adobe fix?

After a full day of research, this seems to be an ongling problem for at least a year now.   VB6 developers who have gone in to do maintenance on their applications that call flash.ocx are finding that they can no longer save their projects because of some change that was introduced by Adobe in the release following flash10e.ocx. In another post here http://forums.adobe.com/message/2931807#2931807 a work around is given of uninstalling flash and installing any version on or before 100452. Because the applications still run fine until the developer tries to make a change and save the VB6 project, the scope of this problem has probably not been fully realized. For this reason, this issue will likely only gain momentum in the future.
I spent the morning contacting several people at Adobe and I discovered the only way apparently to get support for this issue is to open a "web case".   From further research, what I understand a "web case" costs around $200 and with that price there is nothing telling me what comes with a "web case". I mean, if I were to buy one, would the problem be fixed or would they research it and say "I am very sorry but we are not going to fix that".   If there is a guarantee that the problem will be fixed, then can Adobe establish a pool where the $200 cost can be shared by everyone who has the issue?   That couldn't be more than a buck or two each because if you google this problem "System Error &H80004005 using flash.ocx" you will find about 5 pages of people reporting the problem.
Microsoft reports that a System Error &H80004005 error can normally be fixed by chaning the OCX in this manner:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223152
Sounds like Adobe made a slight change to the flash.ocx in the release following 100452 that removed the couple of definitions descibed by Microsoft in the URL above. All of Microsoft's suggestions for the developer using the bad OCX call fail (simply adding a line to the OCX:
InitCommonControls(void)
, however, since the problem (and the answer) is locked deep inside the flash.ocx source code, only Adobe can resolve it. Let's hope someone reads this and takes action.   In advance - please and thank you Adobe.

There's little chance anyone from Adobe will see your posting here, though they do on occasion find their way here for reasons unknown. What you might try is to submit a bug report. Going that route at least puts it into a system that requires it to be processed... whether or not the processing will lead to a solution that helps you is indeterminable from this end.

I just downloaded After Effects CS5.5 Trial and can't save my project

Everything appers to work fine. I can add video, images, sound, but when i click save-save as, nothing happens. When I close the project it asks, do you wish to save "untiled project.aep" before closing and I click yes. Nothing happens, AE closes and the work is lost. I've reinstalled AE twice. I redownloaded the installation packet the second time in case something was corrupted. I used the online chat help, but they told me to call tech support. Trouble is, they're closed for 2-3 days depending upon the holiday. If any of you folks have any ideas, please let me know. Also, I use a lot of Adobe products and as a result, I've deleted all of the preferences folders several times to no avail. I know that those can get wonky and cause issues in Adobe products from time to time. By the way, no errors are coming up. Windows Vista 64 bit
Thanks!

Sounds more like a systemic issue where the dialog is not displayed. Any chance you once had a multi-screen setup and didn't reset it properly? This might draw the dialog in an invisible area. Also generally check whether your file dialog may not appear below the application. As a last thing also check whether your file dialog is not reduced to a tiny spec. Strange as it is, but it's possible to resize it that way and it only appears as a random artifact...

I imported an hour of video into iMovie HD and cut it down to a 33 sec clip, and emptied the trash. When I save the project, the file size is 20Gb. How can I save just the 33 sec clip?

I imported an hour of video into iMovie HD and cut it down to a 33 sec clip, and emptied the trash. When I save the project, the file size is 20Gb. How can I save just the 33 sec clip?

Non-destructive editing is an important feature of iMovie HD 6.
iMovie preserves the entire copy of every clip you place into your movie in case you change your mind at a later stage.
So, if you have cut out one minute from a 45 minute clip, iMovie will have stored two complete copies of that clip. This is why is helps to set import as 3-5 minute clips rather than one huge chunk. As DV runs at 13GB per hour your project files can get very big.
One workaround is to complete the editing of a section of the movie, then export that to Quicktime: highlight the clip/s, choose Share-Quicktime, turn on Share selected clips only, and choose Full Quality from the pop-ip menu.
Once you have saved the stand-alone clip to your hard drive, you can re-import it into your project using the File/Import command, and delete the original long clip/s from the project.

Unable to save/publish Projects on Project Server 2010() using Project Pro 2007 and 2010

Hi,
Recently we have upgraded from Project Server 2007 to 2010 SP-2 (BCM enabled) environment and from last few days we are getting issue with Project Plans where PMs are not able to update Projects means save and publish the Project using MS Project 2010/2007.
Whenever PMs try to open project using MS Project 2010 SP-2, it gets load successfully but when they hit save and publish no jobs are getting fired up nothing is happening. Only way to get out from MS Project 2010 window is to close the Project window and
and click discard changes. No error and exception windows are popping out in MS Project 2010, no error/problem/issue clue at all from MS Project 2010.
But when I try to update this Project plan for very first time using MS Project 2007 Sp-2 then I am getting below error
for any subsequent save and publish using MS Project 2007-SP2 getting below error
As an alternative I have tried to open this Project Plan using web and there it is getting opened saved and published successfully from PWA absolutely no issue.
Also I have saved this Project locally as XML and saved and published it on Server successfully. But after someday again this project got corrupt PMs started getting same problem again
I have also looked at ULS logs but not getting anything useful there.
So any guesses why this could happen that can give me pointers to find actual root cause, please let me know.
Thanks much !!!

Used below steps to fix the Projects on MSP 2010.
1) Open corrupted project in MS Project connected to PS 2010 Prod env.
2) Goto > Resource > Add Resource > Build Team From Enterprise
3) Check is there any local resource who has not replaced with corresponding enterprise resource. If yes then replace all those local resources with enterprise resource. If not then move to next step.
4) Open resource sheet view and sort or filter by local resources.
5) Then add few columns in resource sheet view like "Windows User Account, Email Address , Base Calendar etc".
6) Now check has any local resource having enterprise attribute assigned to it, if yes then delete or assign local value as appropriate.
7) Then GoTo > File > Save & Send > Save as project file > Save for sharing (at local location)
8) Close project plan window and click "Yes" to save changes.
9) Restart MS Project 2010 and open your project from local location.
10) Then Goto > File > Save & Send > "Publish to Project Server". This will open "Import Project Wizard" to validate Resources and Task in Project.
11) Then in Import Project Wizard window at left hand side click "Map Resource" to validate project resources.
12) This will "Map Project Resource to Enterprise Resource " check all the resources highlighted with "Red" font and map "Standard" calendar to local resources.
Note: Don't worry about local resource assigned "Standard calendar" but still highlighted "Red".
13) Then click "OK" and click on "Continue to step 2" at bottom of "Import Project Wizard".
14) Make sure you get number of errors 0 in step 2, else click on validate resource and take proper corrective action as explained in step 6.
15) If you leave at least one resource as a local resource (unmapped to an enterprise resource), you will see the local resource in the Import Resource grid on the right side
of the Confirm Resources page.
Examine the value in the "Import" column (if not able to see this column then insert this as new column) for the local resource .
The default value is "Yes", then change the value in the "Import" column
to "No", else system will import the local resource as an enterprise
resource.
16) Then "Continue to step 3, 4 and 5".
17) Then at Step 5 , Save project to Project Server by clicking "Save as" link.
18) Then publish the project to update the plan at PWA 2010.

Received trascode loading error message when I tried to save a project in Encore CS4`

I have Encore CS4 operating on Windows 8 64 bit. I tried to save a project and received the following message: Error loading transcode preset Internal/Blu-ray NTSC SD MPEG-2. The project is to be a DVD not BLU-ray. I opened the original project as administrator....help
Thanks,
Bryan

Yes, it let me create a project. The error came when I tried to save...not save as...also came when I went to build the DVD. It always saves before it begins to build and the same error message came up again. It is a very simple DVD...no menus....just a plug and play. It is a thearter performance that was shot and then edited in Pro and opening titles and credits added. The thought is that the DVD would be put into the player and the timeline begins to play from the opening titles to the end credits...nothing fancy......
