Selecting for use with slide tool

Got FCE on Friday and decided to work through the manual (in the apparent absence of any video tutorials), got to the section about using the slide tool and am starting to scratch my head.
Can use the slide tool to grab and slide clips but am now trying to do so using numerical edits. The manual (page 486) says:
+If you need to slide a clip just two or three frames, using the mouse may be difficult. For precision edits, it is much less cumbersome to slide a clip numerically.To slide a clip in the Timeline using timecode:+
+1Select the Slide tool in the Tool palette (or press the S key twice).+
+2Select a clip in the Timeline, or hold down the Shift key to select multiple clips. You can also select noncontiguous clips using the Command key.+
I'm actually struggling to select a clip, if I click on a clip with the slide tool it's momentarily highlighted with a coloured outline but when I let go it doesn't stay selected, I can shift click on the clip and it will get selected but the timecode doesn't appear at the top of the time line window.
I feel a bit daft asking this, but after 20 minutes trying all sorts of things I'd rather look daft than waste anymore time. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong.

OK forget it, got it, sorry about that.

    If your info is correct you need to first buy Snow Leopard from the Apple on-line store ($20) install and update to 10.6.8 and then buy Lion from the App Store for $20.

  • Can you display multiple photos on one page with slide tool to transition between them?

    Hi Folks,
    I have a series of photos taken from the exact same location but on different days. I would like to display them on one page but use a slide tool/bar to move or transition between the photos. If the slide bar can display the date of the photo then that would be great.
    Can this be done in adobe?
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks.

    A Steve mentioned you can use a button to display an image. If you use JavaScript, you wouldn't have to show/hide multiple buttons but could instead dynamically set the button icon programmatically. The setup for something like this is a bit involved, but it's not overly complicated. Post again if you'd like more details.
    The slide bar is the thing that would have to faked as there is no such built-in control, but something functionally equivalent could be done, it just may not behave as smoothly as you want.

  • HT3529 Is there a way to create, store and use preset messages for use with "Messages"?

    Is there a way to create, store and use preset messages for use with "Messages". I often have a recurrinig message to send, after a repeating event, and need to enter the same short message each time. It would be nice to have this short message stored and selectable so that I do not need to enter each time.

  • How does one transfer CS5 actions for use with CS6?

    CS6 installation, which was uneventful, has transferred none of my actions from my copy of CS5. The CS5 actions are located in the actions folder of the APPLICATION/PHOTOSHOP CS5/PRESETS/ACTIONS.  The "actions" folder in application support/adobe in my library is empty, and has always been so.
    Only the CS6 default actions are located in the same folder for CS6.
    I use imac i7, lion.
    Note that i also have CS3 and CS4 on my machine. This due to recent upgrade to CS5 and recent upgrade to LION, and my general paranoia.
    Must i load each action into CS6, one at a time?
    thanks to any and all.
    vince

    Re: how does one transfer CS5 actions for use with CS6?
    On a Mac - There are multiple ways to do this.  I have done them both ways. In order to do this you need to know where you have your actions stored, and you can move them all at once if you have them stored in the same location.
    1. You can load an action ONE AT TIME into your actions palette by:
         A. Open up the action palette and click on the little arrow with 4 little horizontal lines next to it on the upper right corner of the actions palette.
         B. Select "Load Actions" and a Finder window will open up and you can search your computer through this window for your actions.
         C. Click on the action from the Finder window then click 'Open' at the bottom right of the finder window.
         D. To save these so that they appear every time you open up your actions palette, go back to the little arrow at the top right of the actions palette and when the drop down window opens- click on 'Save Actions'. It will select the location where the          actions are currently stored as the place to save them. If you want to change that path, you can do it at this time in the little path window.  I just leave it, since I keep all my actions stored in the same file.
    2. TO MOVE MULTIPLE ACTION SETS AT ONCE
         A. Open up CS6 (or CS5) and move the Photoshop workspace it to the right side of your computer screen so you can see your desktop on the left side.
         B. Open up your Finder search window from your dock (the square blue head icon thingy for those who are new to photoshop). Move this to the left side of your screen so you can see the Photoshop work space on the right and the Finder window          on the left. In the Finder window, navigate to the file where all your actions are stored, select all the actions in the file (command+A will select everything in the file if you are actively inside the open file) or you can select multiple files           individually by continuously holding down the command key and clicking on the different actions you want to move.
         C. With the Photoshop workspace visible on the right, and the actions palette open so you can see that the actions actually transferred - In the Finder window, click the selected actions you want to load and drag them over to the Photoshop           workspace.  I did this without an image open, I just dragged them onto the empty workspace.  The actions should all appear immediately in the actions palette that is open.
         D. To save these so that they appear every time you open up your actions palette, go back to the little arrow at the top right of the actions palette and when the drop down window opens click on 'Save Actions'. It will select the location where the           actions are stored as the place to save them. If you want to change that path, you can do it at this time in the little path window.  I just leave it, since I keep all my actions stored in the same file.
    I hope this helps. 
    and I hope there are no typos. 

  • Monitor Recommendations for Use with Captivate

    Anyone have any monitor recommendations for use with Captivate? Size and resolution?

    The formal adobe  recommendation is as posted 1024x768 is fine.
    But, monitors are not that expensive, so for productivity and better work environment I recommend at least one wide screen 22" with resolution  1600X1200 or more  and that supports 1080 for video.
    You need the  wide screen ( or  two monitors) so you can work with all the tools in one view.  

  • V-41 tcode error :Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create a BDC using the transaction V-41. 
    The first screen has fields:
    ConditionType and Table, where I have to fill values ZPM1 and 800 respectively.
    But as soon as I enter the tcode v-41 and say enter, the above mentioned fields are already having the  values 'PR00' and ' 304'. Normally if you take an example fo t-code VA02, all fields are blank.
    Then an error message  is displayed:
    Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00
    This behaviour is not allowing me to use the BDC feature.
    Please advise me on why this is happening. What are the possible solutions I can use to clear these values programmatically?
    Can anything be done via customizing?
    Regards,
    Namita.

    Dear ILHAN ,
    Well the problem you are facing is having the following solution:
    Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00
    Message no. VK024
    Diagnosis
    The selected condition type does not fit in the condition table, that is the basis for the condition record. Alternatively the selected condition type is not included in the condition types that were selected on the selection screen or that are defined in the variant of the standard selection report.
    Procedure
    Úse F4 help to choose a valid condition type.
    If this does not give you the required condition type, check in Customizing for condition types and the related access sequences.
    In the condition maintenance also check Customizing for the selection report (pricing report), that you have selected in the navigation tree, using the standard condition table as a reference.
    I hope this helps.
    It has worked for me.
    I gave it a try and what I am getting using the transaction V-41 is create Price condition (PR00) : Fast Entry.
    Please award points if you find it useful.
    Regards,
    Rakesh

  • Extract closed captions from OTA HD broadcast for use with DVD SP?

    Hi, I'm out of my league here, trying to do a favor for a deaf friend. He will appear on a national TV show, and I'd like to capture his appearance and (if possible) burn it to DVD.
    Of course, being deaf, he needs to see the closed captions.
    What I've done so far is buy Elgato's eyeTV Hybrid. I can successfully capture HD broadcasts with their embedded closed captions (wow, is that gorgeous!).
    I can use the eyeTV software to recompress the audio and video for DVD SP, but the captions don't end up anywhere that I can tell.
    Is there any way to extract the closed captioning information for use with DVD SP?
    Thanks very much.

    I don't think FCP will ever have captioning tools, due to it is a specilized area of post production and third party companies have developed captioning software that addresses this area.
    I use the only Mac captioning software, (Mac Caption, made by CPC) that runs on the Mac. The cost for the SD captioning version of Mac Caption retail cost $6,995 USD and the HD version is an additional $2000.00 USD. If your an educational institution, then the price is about half the list, (price can be negotiated with the company at the time of purchase.)
    As you can see, this is about half the cost of the FCP suite and I really don't think that Apple will ever get into this area. Most production companies rely on captioning services. In our case, we are an educational facility and therefore must comply with ferderal law, so we caption everything we do, thus why we had to purchase our own software.
    The software we use, can do what it is that you are seeking, it can read the caption data from a live video image an convert it to a .scc file, that can be then used in DVD authoring or tape production. It can also read the raster area of a 720x 486 video file and also convert the caption information to a .scc file, as well as creating subtitlilng .stl files for DVD's.
    It can also do original captioning, as well as add a text track to QT streaming files, which is how you caption QT steraming files. You can even burn captions into the video image of a steaming file.
    Again, most production facilities are going to have to rely on a captioning service, but because we have to caption everything, and most captioning services don't caption QT streaming files, this was another reason we had to purchase our own captioning software.

  • SELECT FOR UPDATE with the SKIP LOCK clause

    Hi,
    I have a query regarding the SELECT FOR UPDATE with the SKIP LOCK clause.
    Whether this will be really good for parallel processing.
    Also if we are selecting a set of records in a cursor whether the lock will be done at the records level once we fetch the records?
    Also do we have any known issues with this one?
    We are trying to figure out whether this will fit for business requirement, we are trying to do a implement a threading kind of thing for our stored procedure invocation in background using shell script.
    Any suggestion or feedback on this will be helpful for us.
    Thanks a lot for the support given....

  • How do I export v-card formatted files for use with either Numbers or Excel?

    How do I export v-card formatted files for use with either Numbers or Excel?

    Did you open Automator and just look around?
    Actions are listed in the left pane.
    You drag them into the workflow on the right in the order you need to process the items that you want.
    If this is a on-off requirement, just make a Workflow. If you plan to use it often, make it an Application.
    If you want to select the contacts you want to export, use a get Selected action. You'd then select the contacts in Contacts App before running the workflow.
    I'm not on a Mac to take screenshots, so you'll have to look at Automator's help or google for more info.

    Will alienate? They've already alienated users a long time
    ago. That isn't the point, though, because it doesn't matter if
    users are alienated, it only matters if the users need flash.
    The only thing that could make flash player better is open
    source. I don't see why they don't do it. They make money on the
    authoring tool, not the player. All of my Linux machines are ppc
    and x86_64, no flash there. I also don't have flash on my PDA, a
    Palm T|X. If the player was open sourced, people would stop
    complaining about how much flash sucks -- because, right now, there
    are very serious, legitimate, complaints against it.
    Anyway, for now I'm hoping that SVG matures quickly.
    Although, I"m sure that once Adobe sees that train coming, they
    will extend Flash (dev.) to export SVG movies containing embedded
    binary data that can only play with their binary plugin.

  • Can 10G express be used to create an application for use with a 10G instanc

    Hi
    Can 10G express be used to create an application for use with a 10G instance? I am new to Oracle 10G.

  • Saving Settings for use with Export using Quicktime Conversion

    Dear All,
    Is it possible to save a set of settings for use with the Export using Quicktime Conversion feature? The reason I ask is that we have to export a quicktime of every tv commercial we make (using the same settings) and it would be great if "one click" could deliver the export settings we need.
    All the best, Sean

    Well, you can create a droplet from Compressor that would do what you'd like...

  • ISetup for use with Oracle Incentive Compensation (OIC)

    I have read conflicting reports as to whether or not iSetup would be available for use to migrate Compensation Plans (and all other OIC configurations) across instances of Oracle Apps eBusiness.
    Does anyone know if R12 (12.04) is capable of handling OIC migrations? Is there any documentation available as to how one would configure iSetup for use with OIC?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    This is Mugunthan from iSetup development. OIC is not covered as a part of standard selection sets shipped by Oracle. You may consider logging a SR (product code - 841) to get the coverage.
    If you already have java program/scripts that migrate OIC, then you can plugin them with iSetup. You can also write your own BC4J APIs for migration of OIC setups and register with iSetup.
    To know more about writing BC4J iSetup Fwk APIs, please log a SR.

  • What harddrives are approved for use with ix4-200d?

    Hi,
    I found an article on the Lenovo site for the process of swapping out all 4 hard drives in an ix4-200d, but what I can't find is an article showing the list of approved/recommended hard drives for use with the ix4-200d.  Can anyone point me to such an article?
    My ix4-200d has a 4x500GB configuration (Seagate ST3500412AS drives).  I'd like to swap them for either 2TB or 3TB drives, so I can have one place to store all my raw video, which right now is spread out over three different devices.  Also, if you have any advice or gotchas to look out for when I swap out the drives, I'd love to hear you on that matter.
    Thanks,
    William

    Hello vitorpereira
    In regards to the ix4-200d and ix4-200d CE, Iomega/LenovoEMC never created an approved list of drives.  When a disk failure occured the disk should be replacing with a matching drive if at all possible.  
    When it is not possible to use a matching disk model, a similar disk should be used.  This would be a disk with the same manufacturer, capacity and rotation speed.  
    For the ix4-200d specifically, the units shipped with either a 500GB, 1TB, or 2TB Seagate Barracuda LP (5900rpm) Hepburn disks.  ST3500412AS, ST31000520AS, ST32000542AS
    That is what the ix4-200d units were qualified to use.  Outside of those three specific drive models you will be dealing with hypothetically compatible disk options. 
    The recommendations that Wesley made previously are correct.  You should go though the ix4-300d list find a model that is similar to the stock drive or at least within the capacity limits of the device model.  (ix4--200d is 2TB disks, ix4-200dce is 3TB disks)
    If a different disk models are used in either version of the ix4-200d, it is highly recommended that all disks be eventually replaced with the new model of disk for RAID stability.  to do this, the Capacity Upgrade Guide should be followed.
