The solo function is not working in my Final Cut Pro X

When I select the track I want to solo all other tracks gets black and white (as they should) but all tracks are still visible, nothing changes in the project window. and when I play the movie nothing have changed. Any ideas out there ????

Tom, let me get this straight...once you've added clips to the timeline, the only way to view a particular clip in realtime is to disable anything above it?  And then undo the disable action?  can't believe that Apple would release a professional video editing project without a solo feature. Am I missing something?
And suppose you edit by disabling above clips and then excising unwanted sections...you can't "undo" the disabling, meaning you have to go back and make sure you re-enable each clip you want to reenable manually?  Please tell me this isn't so. This would make the program almost unusable...

  • Audio Transitions not working properly in Final Cut Pro 5.1.4

    I am noticing that I can't change the audio transitions on the timeline as I used to be able to do. Now I get a prompt to go to the Browser and select the audio transitions there which is not how I've done it previously. Before, I just clicked on the timeline audio clip, made a transition and then typed the duration of the transition in the Viewer. So, I'm wondering if I should trash the plist for FCP or do something else? The video transitions seem to work fine as they always have.
    Thanks for any help!

    Let me explain this better. When I click on an audio clip in the timeline I get this prompt:
    No default transition to add. Please set a default transition in the Effects Tab in the Browser before performing this command.
    I've never had to do this before, so I wonder if anyone knows why this suddenly is happening?

  • How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    Sorry I had to reply through your profile Gail from Maine, my PC has java issues. In any event, when I delete them directly from my device everything is perfect and cool. However, in the rare instance I want to add new music that I actually buy in stores (I know, quite the unique and old-fashioned idea...but hey Im an audiophile) once I upload the tunes, everytime I sync my library it re-adds everything that I spent hours deleting. In a perfect world, I thought I could maintain a massive iTunes Library, and add or delete (remove) songs from my iPhone to save both memory or keep my iPhone selections more current/apt to my musical "tastes" at that time. I know about the whole playlist thing, but thought there might be an easier way. ie - checking/un-checking the little box next to the song name, and then doing a sync. Again, everytime I do this however, whether everything is checked or un-checked it adds the entire library! So frustrating. Any suggestions. Thank you graiously in advance for your help.

  • The download function is not working....!! When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads...

    The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc.... When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads... I am currently using Firefox 7.0.1....... Nothing is being downloaded, and I am forced to use IE8 for everything... I even tried re-installing, but doesn't help... I am using Windows 7

    TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
    The failure in communication is two parted:
    1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
    2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
    therefore confused clients.
    For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
    Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
    Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
    Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
    downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
    This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
    It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?  My son's Ipad(same as kind as mine) works ok with the apple tv but mine does not.  Any suggestions?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

  • Will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

    will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

    Thanks Tom.
    So I will need  upgrade to FCP 7 first, then convert to an XML file in 6.0.6, then convert to another file that FCP X can read? I have a lot of half done projects that need finishing. Is this process very complex and time consuming?
    Maybe I should be approaching this from a different angle. The reason I am asking is that I now need to upgrade to a new Mac book pro and have been told that I cant run final cut pro 6.0.6 on the new models using maverick. Is this true?

  • The document "2147483647-11-06 06_00_00.FinalCutCopy" could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files of this type.

    The document “2147483647-11-06 06_00_00.FinalCutCopy” could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files of this type.
    I was importing media, and closed out of the media before stoping the media import. This is how the file saved on the hard drive.
    I need to get this file into a format that FCP can open. Is there a way to export a .FinalCutCopy file into a .mov file???
    Any insights would be VERY HELPFUL!

    I was able to figure it out. I renamed the file type to a .mov format and quicktime was able to open it. Then I saved that file format on the desktop, and imported in after I opened FCP. The file then imported and I was able to access the whole video clip I had! Thanks for your help!

  • Migrate the whole iMovie 10.0.3 library to Final Cut Pro 10.1.1

    Is there any way to migrate the whole iMovie 10.0.3 library to Final Cut Pro 10.1.1?
    I know we can use "Send project to Final Cut Pro" function from iMovie but it works for a selected project only, not the whole event library with structure.

    Thanks for your confirmation!  It seems to me this is the situation after tons of research.....
    I really don't understand Apple's logic/philosophy now.... in the new iMovie... it takes out the keywords which is extremely important to anyone with many clips.  I don't mind to pay for the expensive FCPX but I am told that FCPX cannot migrate the iMovie library..... sigh....... what **** they are thinking....
    BTW, it seems the "Send project to Final Cut Pro" function doesn't support sending even the "Event". It supports only sending project with the clips associated with the project.  There is no way to send the clip without associated to project.  Anyone can confirm it?

  • Does Canon XF100 work well with Final Cut Pro

    Does the Canon XF 100 work well with Final Cut Pro 7.03

    I have read the information about this camera and I have looked at several discussion groups.  Apparently you cannot edit in native format with this camera. This has been confirmed to me by a Canon rep.  You have to bring in footage thru log and transfer which means it takes more time as it converts.  I have never had to do this before.  Because I have always imported thru log and capture.  So because I was wondering if anyone out there can tell me if they are using the camera and if it works well inspite of it.  Or anyone has a better camera recommendation but in the price range of the XF100.
    Thanks,

    I am editing in FCP and trying to use Soundtrack to edit the audio of my mov files.

    good luck.

  • SD Card not showing up in Final Cut Pro on the MacBook Air

    I have been using Final Cut Pro X on a Macbook Air (1.7ghz Intel i5, 256gb ssd, 4gb RAM) and when I insert an SD Card, it shows up but immediately disappears. It continues to be displayed on my friends MacBook Pro, but does not on my Air. 

    Apologies! All sorted. My mac was just taking so long to render the audio lol
    Still having issues with syncing audio (zoom h4n) video clips (multicam clip or sync clips). Normally works like a dream even on difficult material, but for some reason now randomly sync's clips way off the mark.

  • The document "-" could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files in the "package" format.

    Hello.    
    I have been trying to open a Final Cut Pro project but I keep getting this notification (title). The internet does not seem to have any solutions (maybe because of how simple it is).
    I have had in on an external hard drive for a while.
    I am using FCP 10.0.9
    Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks,
    Jimmy Fox

    It sounds like you're trying to open an FCP library. FCP files are never backwards compatible. The library structure was first created in version 10.1, so 10.0.9 will not open it. You'd need to find out which version created the library.
