Thumbnails in Sequence... Can they be changed?

I understand that the thumbnail display for each clip used in the timeline is chosen depending on the "in" mark, in the original clip. Is there a way to change that thumbnail pic based on another mark of some sort? I want the clip to start in the same place, I just want the thumbnail to be different. Thanks in advance for any and all help on this topic.

Or create teh fade with Opacity keyframes in the Timeline.
With Clip Overlays enabled (Option-W toggles this on and off), hold down the Option key and move your mouse cursor over the green Opactity line for that clip in the Timeline. Your pointer becomes a Pen Tool.
Click once about 30 frames from the beginning (or however long the fade needs to be) to create one keyframe. Now click and hold on the Opacity line anywhere before the first keyframe. Drag the mouse all the way down and all the way to the left (for a fade up from black). Drop it, and you've got your fade and the thumbnail shows the first frame of the clip at full opacity.
EDIT: Maybe I should've have added that you should expand the height of the video track in the timeline to make the keyframing a little easier. Probably don't need to add this, but I will anyway.

  • QuickTime 10 player controls annoying, can they be changed?

    Hi,
    The new player for QT10 has the player controls sitting on top of the actual video window, they do fade away and disappear once you hit play and move the mouse off the player, however, when the mouse is over the video window or the video is paused, the player control box sits permanently on the video. I can drag the player control box anywhere within the video box, but I can't get it out of the player. I would like it to live under the video image, below the player window. I can't find any options for changing this. This really is a HUGE annoyance for me. Does anyone know of a solution for this?

    I use QT 7.6.3 Pro as the main Player/Editor and, after a bit of playing around, now have it set as the "default" non-iTunes movie file application under Snow Leopard.

  • How are collections defined in the new 'Photos' app? and can they be changed?

    Hi
    I was just having a look at my photo collection on my mac and realised that when in the year view all the photos orders seem to be correct, but when I zoomed in a level to collections, some of the older photos jumped to the end - I realised this was because the date range of the most recent collection spanned a long time period and so got pushed back in the list.
    This got me thinking.. what actually defines the collections? and am i able to change whats in the collections?  I keep getting confused when the photos keep jumping around when I zoom in and out of each level
    thanks for your help!

    what actually defines the collections? and am i able to change whats in the collections?
    Apple is not very specific about collections and Moments.
    The Help says:  https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht56eafa987
    A moment is a group of photos and videos taken around the same time and in the same place—for example, an afternoon at the beach.
    A collection is a group of related moments—for example, your entire beach vacation.
    The Years view groups all of your photos taken in the same year together, so you can quickly view your entire library at a glance. You can also view your photos individually to see more detail and make edits.
    and am i able to change whats in the collections?
    No way.  The partitioning in moments, collections, years is automatic.  You would have to adjust the dates, to force a different grouping.
    The help text on years does not seem to be correct. I am seeing larger year groups in my library than just one year of photos in a year:

  • Sidebar icons: can they be changed?

    I've added .Trash to my Finder sidebar so I can drag items to the trash.
    I would like to change the blue folder icon to a Trash bin (and wouldn't mind changing the other sidebar icons as well).
    Is it possible to change them? And if so, how?
    Thanks!
    (I own CandyBar, but not sure it allows you to change an individual folder icon).

    The items in the Sidebar are aliases to the original item. If the original item has a custom icon that icon will be displayed in the Sidebar when you drag the item there. You can use GetInfo to change individual folder icons. Find something that has an icon you like, do GetInfo on it, click the wee little icon at the top to select it (a very faint blue line appears when the icon is selected), and select Copy. Then do GetInfo on the folder you want to have the new icon, select the wee little generic folder icon at the top, and Paste.

  • Title Font Defaults - Can they be Changed?

    I do not like the default font and size on the Title pane I have chosen. Can these be defaulted to something else? If so, how do I change for the entire project versus having to change each clip?

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Not done this for a while but I think once you change the font, next time you open a title it sticks. Can't be absolutely sure but either way it still means you'll need to change all those done already, manually one by one.

  • ? on administrator ID & password related to that(" ? Can they be changed?)

    Hi,
    I am wondering (if and how) a administrator identification (the name etc) can be changed and if possible what is the pathway?
    Second: Is it possible to change the password (that goes along with the administrator ID and if possible what is the pathway.
    This is for two eMac's and a Imac all running Panther 10.3.9
    was not sure where to exactly post this so I chose the OS platform we are using
    Thanks!

    ali brown,
    sorry for the delay in responding
    The name is the adminsitaror name (full current name) which on one computer it does not show
    up anymore (after the language(keyboard or other somehow ended as French rather than English)
    as well as the Password) which usually does not show up anyway bit got corrupted same way as above we "think")
    It is a issue when updating AppleSoftware we just got a security update (even though running
    10.3.9) and I "think" it requires the Admin name and PW, also it is required when trashing some items (we do not trash anything that would affect the computer's ability to function) but I do
    recall the emc asking for the administaror name and Password to do so and iscne we do not know
    them anymore (I am looking through a pile of Papers (handwriten and e-mails sent to myself to print of and store) to see if I can find the original but even if I did I do belive it's corrupted.
    **I do not still understand what a "shortname "means but will type it into Mac help
    (which to me comes up with 50% non -applcable info but it is helpful)
    I am using a full version of Omni Disk sweeper (good for 14 days) that helped not only find
    HD usage but broke down each area into specific and their size and location and had a active delete
    button( and a warning if you were deleting something that would affect thr computers ability
    to function ) this relates to another post I put up and Interesting no administror name or PW is required (The Panther version is not listed for sale on the web site, fill version) but the Tiger
    and greater is, the person who responded sent me a download link and licence key good until
    10/27/08 which really helped on our eMac 1.0ghz with a 40GB HD shared primarily with two users.
    Thanks again for your posts/answers and help!

  • Large fugly icons and fonts in 'Sidebars" - Can they be changed?

    In Mail, and Finder, especially - the icons and fonts in the lefthand sidebars of windows seem remarkably big and clumsy.
    Is there a way to change these - I have Tinker Tool but it doesn't seem to apply to the window sidebars (unless I'm missing something).
    Would be nice if it were possible to make the presentation a bit more efficient and less unwieldy.
    Any ideas/tips gratefully received.
    Cheers
    Gareth

    This changes the icon size in the sidebar, but is there any way to change specifically in Mail, the size of the Mailbox fonts (which was available in the Mail Preferences of 10.6)? I would like to increase the font sizes. Thanks

  • (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

    (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
    I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
    I don't sync  music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
    I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
    I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
    I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
    Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
    When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
    Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them.  Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view.  I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again. 
    These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes.  My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues. 
    Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

    Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

  • My email address was recently hacked and they have changed all my passwords. Is there a way i can delete an ICloud account on my phone, mac and Ipad without putting the password in as i do not know this?

    Hi
    My outlook account was recently hacked and they have changed my passwords, secret questions and my information meaning i am unable to access this account. I have the hacked account set up on icloud for all of three apple devices. I have been reading online that to change or delete an account i need to login, or turn find my iphone off which i cannot do without the password!
    I would be really grateful if anyone knew a way i could sort this out to fully delete the old icould account.
    Thanks very much!

    Contact the Apple account security team for your country and request assistance: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security.  If you can prove your identity to them, they can reset the password and help you regain control of the account.

  • Primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?

    primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?

    You are welcome.
    Sorting and organizing photos on IOS devices is one of the things that really need to be improved. It looks like the developers simply did not expect the users to want to keep large photo libraries on an IOS device, where the ordering would matter. I'd send feedback to the developer team, so that they see, what the users want and need:

  • (1) I want to alphabetize faces. (2) Can't change spelling in Faces. After I correct it, it jumps back to the incorrect spelling. There are names in the list that aren't assigned. Can they be deleted??

    (1) I want to alphabetize faces. (2) Can't change spelling in Faces. After I correct it, it jumps back to the incorrect spelling. There are names in the list that aren't assigned. Can they be deleted??
    I type Sandi Patty.  It changes it to Sandi patty.  (Little "p")  There are some pics in there correctly capitalized and some that aren't.  So, I deleted all the faces with incorrect spelling hoping to clear the system of that name completely.  Didn't work.  As you type Sandi, all the choices, including the one with error in capitalization show up.  I type it CORRECTY -- Sandi Patty -- I click on another face and the Sandi Patty becomes Sandy patty.  (Little P)     There are other names in the list that were the result of bad spelling.  Can these NOT be deleted??

    Not at this time, I spent an hour on the phone with Apple support today on this topic and they could not locate the files necessary to delete names from the list.  Bummer

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.
