The dreaded "Proapps" codec update death...with a twist!  HELP!!!!!

Please help.  I am at the end of my rope with this.
I recently updated my ios to 10.6.8 and from what I remember, it made me updated Quicktime and Itunes (?) . . . this was all just so I could put music on my stupid Iphone.
Then I went into FCP7 today (regular 7...i still can't find a link to download 7.0.3) and I could *VIEW* the XF files in log and transfer (Canon XF100) but none of them would 'log and transfer' into .AVI files.  Gave me the red
Frustrated, I began to re-download everything.  Dug through info.   The XF utility, etc.  I believe I downloaded this dreaded program you all speak of in the process.
THEN, *NOTHING* would work.  I could put the XF files into log and transfer, but theyd only play for 2 seconds, and theyd be black.
Then I found this thread.  I downloaded the HDV file you all speak of, and it did nothing. 
HOWEVER, the "PerianXDcam" file *DOES* work!  I was elated, but then, to my dismay, FCP7 keeps crashing.  I can encode about 6 seconds of videos, but when I try to move to something else, or play them in 'log and transfer', crash crash crash.  This never happened before.
ALL I HAVE in the library folder of Quicktime is now this "persianxdcam" from the other thread .... (i don't even think the XF100's are XD format?)
I don't have my original disc, and I don't have my original FCP7 disk!
Am I screwed?  Why is it crashing so much?
Could someone ZIP me their Library folder?
This is my info.
FCP7 (there are no .x.x after it)
Canon XF100 (w/ XF100 FCP plugin)
ios 10.6.8
HELP!!!!!! I'm gonna beat up a wall!  I need to get to work. 

Here's the link for 7.0.3.

  • QuickTime died after ProApps QT Codecs update to 1.03.  Help

    Just installed ProApps Quicktime Codec updates to 1.03.  Now Final Cut Pro and Quicktime won't play any video.  The screens are blank.  What gives???  Can this update be reversed?  We are on Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  Is there a migration upward solution?  Frustrated.
    Thank you.

    As noted earlier:
    Something in the 1.0.3 ProApps Codec update appears to have broken the XDCAM/MPEG decoder  for users running Snow Leopard (10.6.x). Sony is discussing with Apple to see if there is a fix. At present the only possible workarounds are updating the OS or reverting to a backup that does not contain the latest update...
    Thanks for the confirmation, StevenEsq.. We are seeing the same thing here and are speaking with Apple re the possibility of a fix.
    It was replacing the QT folder that brought the decoder back to life. The XDCAM plugins all utilize Apple-supplied codecs even though XDCAM is strictly speaking a Sony format. Installing the Sony plugins only adds FCP Sequence Presets and import/export/re-wrap capability. It does not put the codecs onto the system.
    Hope to have an update on this soon..

    hello im fation mashi im from albania i have a iphone 3 and i want to update it with ios 4.3.3 but i have fear because maybe can block the apple if i update it can you please help me ?

    Since an iPhone 3G cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1...the end of the line for that model iPhone...you can't do what you want, so there's nothing to be fearful of.

  • Where is the forum for Windows Update issues with Windows 10 TP 9926

    Trying to find a fix to the Windows Update issue with Windows 10 TP 9926 build and can't find the correct forum to post this question?
    This will impact receiving the new build upgrades and will impact test strategy for the new supported OS in our desktop application.

    Might try them over here.

  • THE DREADED IMAGE BUFFER ERROR - BACK WITH A VENGENCE IN CS4!

    Hi
    I apologise in advance for bringing up such an old issue - and I know there is a lot on the net about this issue. But I am really struggling having just upgraded to CS4
    I have projects that were created in After Effects CS3 under OSX Leopard. After much forum reading and hours of experimentation, I managed to adjust all the necessary memory and cache settings so that I could render and preview my projects easily.
    I undersood what was needed and how to adjust the settings if the "Unable to allocate space for image buffer...." error ever returned.
    In AE CS3 - it ALWAYS worked.
    Now I have upgraded to CS4 and Snow Leopard.
    Adobe - in their wisdom - have decided to change the memory and cache settings in the preferences dialogue box. I can no longer adjust the settings as I used to.
    No matter what I do - no matter how I change the settings  - I cannot render my projects.
    Why is this now happening.
    I don't need to upgrade my machine (Mac - Intel 2 x 3ghz Quad core - 12 gig memory)
    Plus the fact that it worked perfectly in AE CS3.
    If anyone knows how to reslove this issue - what settings to play with in AECS4 - I would be so grateful.
    Thanks in advance
    Casey Dobie

    Regarding the changes to the Memory & Multiprocessing preferences for After Effects CS4: The changes were intended to make adjusting the preferences easier. Most people had a hard time understanding the old preferences.
    Have you updated to After Effects CS4 (9.0.2)? There are some problems with Snow Leopard that the 9.0.2 update addresses. Can you tell us some things about the composition that is giving you problems, like frame sizes you're working with and other factors that affect RAM usage?
    First, check to make sure that Render Multiple Frames SImultaneously is off and RAM To Leave For Other Applications is set to a very low number. You want to give a single rendering process of After Effects all of the RAM that it can take so that it can render the frame that is giving you the error.

  • My iTunes on my Mac won't open. The dreaded colored wheel of death keeps spinning but nothing happens. When i hit force quit it shows iTunes as "not responding". Help please.

    Help. When i open iTunes the dreaded wheel of doom keeps spinning but itunes wont open or allow me to do anything. When i force quit it shows itunes as "not responding".
    Help!

    You need a firewire cable (6 pin to 4 pin). These are very cheap online if you Google, or you can find at Radio Shack etc.

  • Could an antivirius software cause the dreaded spinning wheel of death?

    I am running an antivirus program via MacKeeper.  Could this be causing the spinning wheel of death to keep popping up?  I cannot use Safari anymore due to constant death-wheel interruptions.

    Uninstall MacKeeper, it isn't required. Do some basic maintenance:
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation.  TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible;  Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided.  Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.  Other utilities are also available such as Onyx, Leopard Cache Cleaner, CockTail, and Xupport, for example.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    Backuplist
    Carbon Copy Cloner
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    iBackup
    JaBack
    Silver Keeper
    MimMac
    Retrospect
    Super Flexible File Synchronizer
    SuperDuper!
    Synchronize Pro! X
    SyncTwoFolders
    Synk Pro
    Synk Standard
    Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.

  • TS1398 Does anyone know when apple is going to fix the problems their latest update caused with iphone 4s and wifi????

    All the sudden, as i've read many other's have experienced, I can no longer connect to wifi in my own house with my iphone4s.  Nothing goes to the cloud. No matter what I've tried to fix it, nothing.  Any idea when Apple is going to get their act together and get another update to fix the last update????  Anyone have any luck fixing this - it's not a wifi problem.  It's an Apple issue, it was introduced to the device on their last update - what in the world are we supposed to do to fix it?

    I've been on the new IOS since it was released, and have no problems with wifi.

  • Firefox 23 Beta has crashed 5 times in the last hour since updating, twice with a BSOD failure of the video driver. I can't figure out another way to post this.

    FF was running fast and stable until the Beta update tonight. Afterward it crashed repeatedly, sometimes with a total system lockup, other times with an unresponsive system, occasionally with a Video Driver failure leading to a BSOD.
    I had to DL 22 release and roll back. I'm now on the release channel, not the beta channel.
    System config: Dell Latitude 6410, Win 7 x64, 128 GB SSD, 4GB RAM, Intel video hardware. Everything is up to date.
    Trying to get this out before it crashes again then switching to 22.
    Java plugin is usually disabled.
    Toolbars are ABP, download status bar and Disconnect.

    If you are still getting blue screen crashes, make sure you've disabled Firefox's use of hardware graphics acceleration. With that feature off, it would be rare that Firefox would touch any privileged parts of Windows.
    You might test in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?
    Oddly, that last crash report shows the Flash plugin still loading, even though you disabled it.
    This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash player. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
    (1) Make sure all recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them.
    (2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
    (A) ''As described above...'' In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)
    See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]

  • HT201210 iPhone gets stuck in recovery mode when I update the software (last 3 updates and with 2 different phones) and I have to take it into the store. What's the problem?

    I have downloaded the most recent version of iTunes to my laptop and am smart enough to have backed up my entire phone to my laptop before updating the iOS software, but this is the third time that a software update has bricked my phone (first an iPhone 4S then a 5) and I don't have the time to go to the Apple store and wait for my everything to restore. I am running Windows updates and will restart my laptop to retry the connection between my iPhone and iTunes, but looking for suggestions.

    Yeah same exact problem as me.  EXACTLY.  In a way I'm glad more than just me are having the problem so I know it's probably not on my end and on the apple side....I HOPE that is what it is.
    MAN, a whole day and a half????  Crap I need my phone to work....
    I really think it's the apple servers because it errors 3014 right when iTunes says "verifying phone....." something....  It goes away so fast I can't read the rest, but I think that is the step where it verifies phone to the apple servers, which are overloaded, I assume.
    It's gotta be that.  How many other people are having this same exact issue?

  • My iphone4s started jamed and crashed all the time after I updated to iOS7. can anyone help me with this??

    Can anyone help me pls!
    Thx..

    Hi Luaylool,
    If you are having multiple issues after updating your iPhone, you may want to make sure you have a current backup, then try restoring the phone and testing it for those issues before returning your data. You may find the following article helpful:

  • I'm also getting the dreaded Blue Screen Of Death when I boot into Windows

    This happened right after I upgraded to the most recent version of iTunes. Everytime I initially boot the computer, it would get into Windows, crashes immediately, then my system reboots and I'm able to get into windows no problem.
    Reading the help section it says to go and download & reinstall the previous version of iTunes. Ok simple enough, but where on earth can I find the previous version?? The link it provides takes me to the latest version. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?
    Can someone please direct me to where I can download the previous version?
    Thanks very much.

    Hi,
    Thanks very much for the reply. I'm glad somebody was able to give me this information!
    So I went to the website and I downloaded 8.0.0.35, BUT when I tried to install it, I got an error message that said: "A later version of iTunes is already installed on this computer."
    I'm afraid if I uninstall my current iTunes, then I will lose all my playlists and stuff. There's no way to just install the old version on top of the new one? If no, is that the proper procedure to uninstall first and then reinstall?
    Thanks.

  • I've ju App Store won't let me upgrade the iPhoto ,it says update unavailable with this apple id store (something like that). What can I do to fix this. I want to be able to access my photos. Thank you.

    what should i do when the app store doesn't allow me to upgrade iPhoto after i upgraded my mac to yosemite?

    To upgrade to iPhoto 9.6.1  you must first delete all previous versions of iPhoto that are on your hard drive. Also delete any alias files that you may have created for iPhoto.
    Next go to the App Store and look under Purchases for iPhoto 9.6.1.  You should be able to download and install it.

  • Any new resolution to the dreaded "white screen of death"?

    My 2nd gen. 4GB iPod Nano has been unhappy for a long time now. It still plays music, and I am still able to access iTunes, etc., but the display is either all black or all white, all the time. Since I can no longer see any menus, it plays whatever it wants. Not the best scenario, but better than not playing at all, I suppose.
    For a while, I was able to call up the Apple logo and then the menus by simultaneously pressing and holding the top and center of the control ring, but that hasn't worked in quite some time, no longer how many times I try.  As much as I enjoy ABBA, I'm a little tired of hearing them every time I power it up. I know this is a long-standing problem, and I'm hoping that by now someone has devised a solution. Any advice would be much appreciated.

    You can do an out-of-warranty replacement at an Apple Store or send it to a 3rd party repair site.

  • Every time I save a file, MP3 or photo file the file disapears. This doesn't happen on explorere or g chrome. It started with the MP3s and just his morning with jpegs. Help?!

    can't find out why or if there is a setting I missed.

    Your blinking Menus and shaking cursor, sound like problems in another Adobe app, Premiere Pro. Lots of GUI problems, with only certain aspects common. Confused a lot of folk for some time. Only seemed to affect Adobe programs too.
    The issues there were found to be with MS IntelliPoint mouse drivers. Do not have the version #'s handy, but rolling back from the (then) current versions solved the vast majority of these cases.
    After your HW driver updates, (keep the old drivers handy, just in case and do System Restore Points frequently), check your mouse driver (MS, or other) and see if you can use an older version, or if there may be a new version, that might have addressed the issues. In the Premiere issues, older were all that would work.
    Last, PS does rely on QT for some things. Premiere and AE use it a bunch. Two recent "updates" for QT really screwed things up, and in a big way. A lot of those problems were solved by rolling back QT to an earlier version. That's the reason, that I say hold on to your older drivers, just in case.
    I do not know of any Matrox driver issues, but nVidia's control console app was also causing problems after an update recently. Usually Matrox drivers are not often updated, but have been very stable. I moved away, prior to the release of the Parhalia boards, so I do not know if things have changed. Some video card folk seem to have daily driver updates, and some are not solid.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
