Scale clips using the timeline- doesn't seem to work well?

I had been scaling my clips (200%) using the effect control panel, and decided it would be a couple less clicks to simply change the property to "Motion:Scale" in the timeline and drag the bar on the clip up to scale it- but it's strange, because if I drag it all the way up (600 units is the highest) the clip is scaled by 150%. What's the thought behind this? I mean, how can I use this feature to scale the clip in an intuitive way? Ideally, wouldn't dragging the bar to 200 scale the image by 200%? Is this simply not what that feature is for? What WOULD someone use this feature for if not this?

Yeah, me too! I also find that using multiple interface elements to complete one repetitive task is silly. If I am already using the timeline to place clips, why not also use it to scale them by a precise amount? The feature appears to be there. I am wondering about how or if it was intended to be used. Any insight from those who use the Motion:Scale feature in the timeline?

The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to FP requireing an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I fould a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

Picture within the picture doesn't seem to work

Has anybody encountered the same issue ?

In fact it works with my old projects but not on the one created with imovie 10,0
The system doesn't let me insert a picture within a picture or video. I can only insert or replace.
Am I doing something wrong ...?

I cannot turn my phone off. The button doesn't seem to work.

My model MC637B iPhone 3 won't turn off. Suggestions have been made that I press the Hold and Power Off button simultaneously but that just takes me to Voice Control. Have recently travelled by plane and had to leave it switched on but in Airplane mode. I've not tried Reset but not sure if this would help. I've only had the phone a few weeks, so perhaps I ought to return it to the store.
Any ideas would be much appreciated

HT1237 Trying to update my Macbook Pro 6.2 but the firmware doesn't seem to work.

Trying to update the EFI version 6.2 for Macbook Pro but it won't install. Complaining that it isn't for this computer. Checked the systems info and everyting.

I don't see a EFI 6.2 mentioned at the page you reference - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237.
Which model MacBook Pro do you have? If it's a 6,2 MBP, then you'd need the mid-2010 update (if you really need it) and that would be EFI 2.6.
Go back to the page and see what I'm writing about. It may be that your machine is simply not in need of the EFI update.

Using a jQuery list box placed onto a tab control doesn't seem to work for posting?

Hello,
I developed a U.I. in Dreamweaver for a product and have several list boxes that use the onChange modifier to collect what the user selects from the list. I use the onChange=this.form.submit() function to grab the user's selection from the list box..
When this dropdown list box code is placed onto a form, it posts properly and I can retrieve the user's list selection. If however I place the list box code onto a Tab page from a jQuery Tab Control, developed in Dreamweaver, the posting doesn't seem to work.
I must be missing something because identical code is working fine when the list box code is placed on a form yet when the code is repeated from within a Tab, it isn't working.
The code is simple, and shown below). The list values are coming from a MySQL table.
$MyQuantity_query="SELECT * FROM Quantity_Table";
$MyQuantity_Result=mysqli_query($cxn,$MyQuantity_query) or Die ("Cannot connect");
echo"<select name='ThisQuantity[$RowCounter]' value='ThisQuantity[$Rowcounter]' onChange='this.form.submit()'><option value='-1' selected>Qty</option>";
While($MyQuantity_Row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($MyQuantity_Result))
extract($MyQuantity_Row);
echo"<option value='$Qty_Number'>$Qty_Number</option>";
echo"</select>";
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks you.
I tried placing the selection list inside of
tags but posting still doesn’t seem to be working?

I used to be able to download files from the Harddrive of my Sony Handycam, but now it won't let me import them while going through "log and transfer." I have tried to update my settings, but this doesn't seem to work. Any help would be much appreciated

Hard Drive: The Hard Drive is on my camera (Sony Handycam)
Just needed some info on what is going on with your particular system.
Knowing the exact camera model will also assist us.
If this camera is standard AVCHD you should be able to connect with USB to Mac with FCE open and use Log and Transfer without all the fiddling around converting etc.
What FCE does during ingest is convert files to AIC. (Apple Intermediate Codec)
FCE cannot read the individual files in the BDMV folder, that's why all the converting is required when you use that method.
BTW: regards formatting drives/cards/memory on cameras; it is wise to use the actual device to format rather than a computer. This is a prime cause of read/write goof ups with solid state media. This applies to still or video cameras.
Keeping the COMPLETE card/memory structure in tact is vital for successful transfers.

When I perform a split audio edit, the timeline doesn't show it when the clips are collapsed!

Especially the clip whose audio is 'covering' another... the timeline doesn't show it's audio as extending, and it would appear only that the clip for which audio has been shortened, is still there, or at "0"... what gives? If you uncollapse the audio, or detach it, you do, once again, see the split audio.
Thanks

Like Zambonisurfer suggested, this is so by design.

Go to Options>Applications>click on, in your case, Adobe Acrobat entries and select "Use Adobe Acrobat(in Firefox)" or as you wish.

When using Acrobat - Adobe Software License Agreement Pops Up - Accept doesn't seem to work - Application then automatically closes when existing the License Agreement pop up - Whats going on?

Please try :
Software License Agreement reappears after you click Accept
Adobe's "accept license agreement" pops up way too much and ruins UX
Repeatedly asked to accept license agreement
Hope it helps you.

Everytime I drag a clip onto the timeline and it like scales up?

Okay, so ya know when you drag a clip onto the timeline and it asks you if you wanna change the sequence settings or keep them. I usually keep them but this time I checked dont ask again and now its zoomed in and I feel stupid!

W cant help much with feeling stupid...
But create a new sequence and start again is what we might advise.
