Space Bar doesn't play after paste in Pro 7.4.5

I am trying to sync up a sound file with a video file in QT Pro, and every time I paste the sound file (opt-apl-V), I can no longer play the movie by hitting the space bar. I have to use the mouse and click the play button, which after an hour of hitting the space bar from habit and hearing the alert sound is really getting on my nerves....
Anyone have any ideas what's going on?
Thanks!

(Apparently I can't edit my post after a while, eh?)
Okay, so additional info - it always occurs when I change the display from "time" to "frames." It also happens when I hit apl-J to view the movie properties.

Space bar doesn't seem to work in Flash

Hey everyone,
This sounds quite ridiculous but my space bar doesn't want to work in Flash CS3. I'm a web designer and started recently for a new company. They asked me to include a flash image on one of our websites. When I try to add text to the stage, I can't make spaces. That is all. I've used flash before and I've never ran into this problem. I'm using a crappy mac if that helps at all. I'm stumped
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried borrowing someone else's keyboard to see if it still fails?

CS4 Space bar doesn't work to reposition a marquee

Help! I am drawing a marquee around an image and trying to reposition the marquee using the space bar on the fly, but the space bar function for this is suddenly disabled. I am using Photoshop CS4 for the first time on a new iMac (though I have used Photoshop for years on another Mac) and I don't know what could disable this functionality. The space bar toggle for the hand tool still works when using another tool. Any ideas? This is sooo frustrating and strange.

This is from the CS4 Help file, so it hasn't changed:
To reposition a rectangle or elliptical marquee, first drag to create the selection border, keeping the mouse button depressed. Then hold down the spacebar and continue to drag. Release the spacebar, but keep the mouse button depressed, if you need to continue adjusting the selection border.
Your Photoshop preferences may be corrupted. Try trashing them.

The address in the URL-bar doesn't update after clicking some links. Why?

Hello,
first: thanks a lot for this great Browser!
My Firefox-Version:
6.0.2 on Windows XP
My Problem:
Since a few weeks (I think since Version 6.x) I experience this problem.
When I click on a link, normally the URL-bar gets updated and shows the address of the new (the current) website.
This doesn´t work now - for some links!
Example:
Surf to times.com.
Then click on an article-link (for example this one: "Opinion »
Op-Ed: Germany’s Mediterranean Envy ).
The link (the new website) opens in the same tab. But in the URL-bar I still see just "times.com". I even don't see "http://" infront of it.
And very important to me: I don't see the complete URL of the article - which should be
"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/26/opinion/germanys-love-for-greece.html?hp".
That causes many problems with my work. :-/
Please help.
Thank you!

ITunes doesn't play after Mountain Lion upgrade

I just upgraded from Snow Leopard, installed Mountain Lion, 10.7.3, and with it the recommended iTunes upgrade 10.6.1. It seems to have broken things.
If I click to play a song I can get the play window, but it'll be frozen at 0:00. Starting, stopping, dragging the cursor: nothing will make the time advance or music play. This happens with samples of music, purchased songs, video samples. The Console isn't showing any error messages.
I've logged out, and back in. I've shut down completely and rebooted. I've check that stuff still plays OK on my iPad.
What next? This is pretty disappointing.

I'd be interested to know if you resolved your issue. I have the same one, and have had an open case number on it for 6 weeks with no resolution from Apple Care support staff including fairly senior ones. Any song or podcast synced to an iPod Classic w/ OS 10.7.4 via iTunes 10.6.1 will not play normally--it starts and stops randomly and skips to other tracks, even when locked in the off position. The laptop is 9 weeks old, the classic is 3 weeks old, and the same happens w/ an iPad 1 and iPod Touch. All devices and the laptop work normally in all other respects. If I download a song or podcast directly via wifi on the Touch it works somewhat better, although there are problems there too perhaps related to the glitchy Voice Control software. I am doing this while temporarily residing in Berlin but I don't think its local wifi protocols since everything plays normally directly on the laptop. I have been using Apple products on a daily basis for 20 years and have never had this kind of a ridiculous problem, not even with crap OSs like 8.1 and 8.5 . . . Apple Care hasn't cut it at on on this one

Navigation bar doesn't work after publishing to .Mac

I composed my website in iWeb '08 on a PowerBook G4 but when I publish it to iMac or to another server, I only get the home page visible with the navigation bar text. However, I am unable to use the navigation bar to go to any of the other pages created. This happens when I publish to a folder as well.
Help?!

Hi dr.dara and welcome to the iweb discussion forum,
we often see this problem on the forum and the only answer we can give is that you might have something in front of the nav bar. Something like a textbox or a shape.
Sometimes emptying the Cache of the browser helps resolving this kind of problems.
What happens if you click on the nav bar in iWeb itself?
If you can't find anything could you provide us your link?
Regards,
Cédric

My imported AVI file doesn't play audio in Premiere Pro CS5 nor Encore CS5

Hi there,
I've been trying to find a solution for my "audio" problem for a few days now, but no luck...
First of all I'd like to mention that I work on a Mac.
I have an AVI file that plays perfectly fine in Quicktime (audio and video).
However, when I import it in Encore or Premiere, it shows the video but there's no audio.
I understand this probably has something to do with codecs? But I really have no clue what I can do about it.
I was working in Encore at first, cause I don't really need any editing, just a dvd I'd like to burn. Since the audio didn't work there I've tried importing in Premiere. Same problem of course. Then I tried to seperate the audio and video and transfered it into Soundbooth. Didn't change anything.
Another problem that occurred in Encore was some errors with gaps. I have about 10 AVI files that I put on the same timeline. Any advice on what I can do about that?
I'm kinda new in all of these things, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

Hi again,
I've downloaded mediainspector and got the following results:
I also checked the timeline after importing a video and there is indeed a red line over the timeline in Premiere, not in Encore:
Screenshot timeline Encore:
Screenshot timeline Premiere:
My project settings in Encore: I took the standard for a dvd Pal widescreen:
And in Premiere I've tried the 4 different standard settings for DV PAL. All the same result with the red line.
I've read the articles about the codecs, but I really could use some help what I can do next. Should I convert it to an MPEG2 for dvd file for example? Which converter (free?) is good for Mac?
Or is there something else I need to do?
I understand how the programs work but I really don't know so much technical stuff about sound and video.
Oh, and just for your information: I imported an MP3 file also in the project, to play at the main menu, and that one is playing just fine, no problems there.
Thanks again for all the help! I really appreciate it.

Video doesn't play in CS4 Premiere Pro trial version

I have just installed the trial version of Premiere Pro CS4 and for some reason none of the types of vidoes I import work. I have tried AVI from a miniDV camera which I have used and edited before on Premiere pro 1.5. It only seems to show the first frama of the track in some random colour and bits of the picture are missing. The computer is running Vista and has all the requirements to run CS4 so why is it not working?

Come on I could really use some help here! Anyone with an idea would help.

Why do my .Mov's not play after pressing space bar

I used to be able to press the space bar on any movie file I had and it would open up and play. Now for some reason, it opens up a window but it is just black? If I double click it or open it in Quick TIme it plays fine, but I liked the feature of just clicking my space bar and it playing straight away. Any ideas why it isn't doing this anymore?

You problem sounded rather odd, so I tried to duplicate it in iTunes 11 and I couldn't.
I turned off copy to iTunes media folder when adding to library, then I moved a music track that was not in the iTunes media folder from folder A to folder B and right clicked on it and selected open with iTunes and it played fine. (I have to do it this way as iTunes is not my default player for MP3).
However the consequences of doing this are that you end up with two copies of the track in the library database, the original which can no longer be found as it is not in its original location and the new entry pointing to the correct location which plays OK.
So as far as I can tell, there must be something else going on as I can't dublicate your problem in iTunes 11

iTunes Folder Watch
http://albumbrowser.klarita.net/iTunesFolderWatch.html
If you want an easy time with iTunes it really is easier to let iTunes manage your music in the iTunes media folder. Also it make life a lot easier if you want to move to a new disk or PC as iTunes can tolerate the iTunes media folder being moved as long as you tell it where it is.
Added
I realised that my last experment was not a purchased track.
When I did it with a purchased track, iTunes recognises that it should be in the library database and brings the track up with an exclamation mark next to it. Strangely the track was added to the library with the correct loaction and would play on the secon try.
Odd behaviour, maybe it is something to do with the icloud storage system as iTunes knows you purchased the track.

My space bar starting "playing" again !!

I know some of you had the same issue as me-- The space bar would not play the project anymore. It would just un-check layers in the Project pane.
For some odd reason it started working again about two days ago.
Does anybody have any ideas why?
-marco

Hey, I know that it seems to be linked to a tab through fields feature. Same thing here. After making a parameter change I have to Click on the playhead then use the space bar to play otherwise it will toggle on/off layers.
Also around the same time for me the scrub through playhead feature also is GONE. I cannot use the arrow keys to scrub a frame at a time. what a pain. And as outlined in a recent post for me I cannot simply click from app to app when motion is open. I must use "command+ tab" to switch app which is also a huge pain.
Now Ill that said Im convinced its not just a motion thing as much as it is a leopard deal. Im staring to thinks its the driver for the slimline keyboards which came out a few leopard updates ago.

The Library window cannot be viewed or pulled up, though I can play music with space bar?

I am experiencing the weirdest problem with iTunes. I opt to launch an alternate iTunes Library by holding down the Option key when opening iTunes. I have an entirely separate iTunes Library for work purposes.
When I locate and select my alternative iTunes Library, the program opens, but the Library window cannot be viewed. I can only view the Equalizer window. My music content seems to be there, as when I hit the space bar, some music plays (it seems like it is set on a particular playlist). I can freely switch between these tracks with the keyboard options, but I have no way of accessing everything else offered by the Library window. =(
This is distressing because I have a lot of graphics and and organized project playlists of media for work purposes.
I am running iTunes 9.0.2 (25) on PowerPC 10.4.11. I'm wondering if there's a chance that I have not loaded this alternate Library since I updated iTunes from 8 to 9.
Does this make sense to anyone? I would greatly appreciate any assistance or suggestions!
Is it easy to uninstall an itunes version, or possible to install an older version in place of a newer version?
Of course, my personal music iTunes Library loads the Library window without issue, so I'm not sure how this could have happened. Could it be an issue with the Library asset files?
Thanks so much!

I fixed it! I searched the knowledge base and found an Apple article! Thanks for reading!

ITunes doesn't play.... what's up??

Ok, this is weird but I'm afraid the answer might be both obvious and tragic. All of a sudden, iTunes quit working completely, except that everything about it looks perfectly normal. It's not frozen, I can click on my playlists, I can drag the time bar and everything else, but that it doesn't play music, which is sort of an important part of iTunes. The play button does nothing other than briefly turn blue. It doesn't switch to the pause button and the time doesn't start to run. The space bar and the play tab in the menu do nothing either.
I've tried installing the latest version of iTunes, I'm now using 6.0.4. The upgrade didin't help. Everything had been fine until all of a sudden yesterday I couldn't get it to work. Now, the only problem I can think of is something sort of badand scary.... the disk utility has been telling me for a year now that my hard drive "has reported a fatal error." But so far everything has been working fine. Is there something about a fatal error that could keep the play button from working? I know fatal errors are serious, but this hasn't been causing any problems.... I've just been holding my breath for a year, and backing up a lot.
Are there any suggestions anybody can make, other than getting a new iBook, which is a sweet idea but out of the question at the moment?

Since you installed a new version, it's unlikely the iTunes application is the culprit.
The only thing I can thinks of at the moment, is deleting the iTunes preference files.
Drag the next files in ~/users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences to the desktop:
com.apple.iTunes.eq.plist
com.apple.iTunes.plist
com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
com.apple.iTunes.xxxxxxxxxxxx.plist (x-es are characters and numbers)
The last file is located in the Byhost folder of the above mentioned path.
Run iTunes and try again to play a song.
Hope this helps.

Mac Book Pro space bar issue...

I just received my MBP and the space bar is very difficult to engage. This small thing makes typing an extreme test of patience.
I got it at Future Shop Canada two days ago. Should I call Apple Support or deal with Future Shop? It has taken a while to get here and I need it bad in the coming days. (I am a photography student and it is coming into portfolio time.)

Hi, Thanks for the reply. The space bar works, I have to press down hard on it for it to input. It seems really bad on the left side of it, to the point where it needs to be pressed firmly. I thought it was a mac thing (being a long time pc user) but my gf is a graphics designer and works on them all day, she said that it wasn't right.
The space bar doesn't seem to be mounted improperly, it is just not very sensitive. The fact that it has very little sensitivity on the left side as apposed to the right leads me to believe that it isn't just a software problem.
I hope that explains it. I am going to call apple in the morning. How long do these things usually take? I would hope to get it back fast after blowing $3300 on it.
