Timeline not loading

For some reason FCPX kept hanging at "Restoring window layout", so I deleted the necessary files and got it past that problem. But now the timeline won't load and the splash screen continues. I can still interact with the program windo and click on thigs and play movies, but it won't update the UI to show I've made changes. This is all weird because it was working earlier this week. Please help!

Not sure what files you deleted. Do you mean you trashed your preference files?
If not, try that.
Unexplained faults like this can often be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and perfectly safe, both to download and use).
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
With Preference Manager, you can backup the Prefs when FCP X (or any of the Apple Professional Applications) are working normally. Then when either of the applications are acting strangely, Trash the Preferences, then Restore from your backups (just a mouse-click).
If you trash the prefs and don't restore them, you will need to manually restore all your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then your backups are up to date.
Doesn't fix every problem, but it fixes a lot.

Premiere CS4 will not load timelines

I have been working on a project will several sequences. Today when I load project to contine
working on them, the timeline will not load. I can view the sequence in the Program Monitor,
but when I double click it does not open the timeline at the bottom of the screen. It does nothing! HELP!!!

I can view the sequence in the Program Monitor,
If you can view the sequence in the program monitor you probably have the timeline working but cant see it. have you changed your view settings where the timeline might be hidden from you ? Maybe try using "editing" view or "reset" your view to the default ?
maybe post a screenshot of what you are seeing when you open cs4...

"Could not load scene into memory. Your document may be damaged." Lost whole timeline.

Please help me - I have been working on a Flash CS6 file for a while now, and just got the message "Could not load scene into memory. Your document may be damaged." The file is not big, all it contains is 3 layers - one embedded video FLV file and 2 layers on top that only contain brushstrokes. The file is on my external hard-drive and now I get the message when I open it on either of my computers. I read feedback that I should re-link or re-import my assets, so I re-made the FLV file and imported it to replace the old one that it said couldn't be found. The problem is the timeline is completely empty. Even once I import the new video, the timline only has one "layer 1" with only one blank keyframe. Where is the rest of my work? I am good with backing up but was just away for a week and got a lot of work done so I couldn't back it up until I was back home... and obviously that isn't happening now.
Please help if you have any idea where my work has disappeared to.

Hi GregirArt,
Can you please check your PublishSettings.xml file whether is there any duplicate profile entries?
You can check the same by renaming your .fla to .zip and extract the zip file to open the PublishSettings.xml
If you find multiple duplicate profile entries then please remove all the duplicate entries from the file and rename the file back to .fla and see if that helps.
Thanks!

Using Preloader But Content Not Loading

Hi.
Here's the Cliffs Notes version:
I've a 2 frame movie: Frame 1 is the preloader; Frame 2 a movie clip (web site).
Both work fine individualy, but the dynamic content I want pre-loaded is not loaded into the movie clip (web site) after the preloader animations.
Verbose version:
I'm have a preloader on frame 1 of the timeline. Here's the code:
stop ();
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener (ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onLoading);
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
function onLoading (evt:ProgressEvent):void
          var loaded:Number = evt.bytesLoaded / evt.bytesTotal;
          percent_txt.text = (loaded * 100).toFixed(0) + "%";
          var counter = (loaded * 100) * 3.6;
          masked_mc.mask = masking_mc;
          masked_mc.rotation = counter;
//          trace (masked_mc.rotation);
          if (masked_mc.rotation < 0)
                    masked_mc.mask = null;
function onComplete (event:Event):void
          this.loaderInfo.removeEventListener (ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onLoading);
          this.loaderInfo.removeEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
          gotoAndStop (2);
On frame 2 is only a movie clip (a web site).
In this movie clip on frame 1, I have a dynamic text field into which gets loaded some external text, styled with HTML and CSS.
At the moment, when a visitor comes to the site for the first time, he can actually see the text load, then see the CSS styles get applied. I would like to use my preloader so that this text loading and styling is completed before they get to see the home page.
Trouble is the, while the preloader itself works, the HTML and CSS still does not get loaded until after the preloader. This makes sense as the code for calling and loading the HTML/CSS is in the movie clip.
So I thought, put the code....
//NEWS --------------------------
// Load the external .swf "navidNews.swf".
var navidNewsSWF:String = "assets/fla/navidNews.swf";
var navidNewsURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(navidNewsSWF);
var navidNewsLoader:Loader = new Loader();
navidNewsLoader.load(navidNewsURLRequest);
//Put "navidNews.swf" on the stage.;
newsContainer_mc.addChild(navidNewsLoader);
into frame 1, same as that for the code for the preloader. But because the empty movie clip into which navidNews.swf is loaded is not in the same frame as the preloader there are errors.
Okay, move empty movie clip newsContainer_mc into frame 1 with preloader, which will hide the news container.
What am I missing? Should I not put a movie clip of my web site on frame 2, but instead move the preloader into the web site movie clip, putting it on frame 1?
I've been playing musical frames with this thing for two days now.......

load the text and css in frame one (they need not be be used until frame 2) and incorporate those into your preloader.

Have a problem ... not loaded project. Premier pro has encoutered an error [f:\ppro603_Win64\shared\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\inc\keyframe/k] }

Have a problem ... not loaded project. working on it for 8 months. never was nothing like this either with him or with other projects. When you load a project Premier generates an error .{ Premier pro has encoutered an error [f:\ppro603_Win64\shared\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\inc\keyframe/k] } Create the eve autosave project also not loaded. When I sav'd the project for the last time about the Premiere pro me warned about any problems and save projects without any problems. It is only one thing was unusual in the program - the timeline when switching between sikventsy constantly dropped as user's settings. And as usual. I tried to load the project from another computer. Import the project into the after Effects . import the project into a new project about Premier pro. But it did not solve the problem. all the time the error. Please help, a lot of work in this project. This is a great betrayal of the Premier pro...

Hi Pochtawood,
Yes, uninstalling iCloud will allow you to create new projects.
For legacy projects, you can repair them with a patch created by a user.
Details and links to the patch are here: Re: Debug event f:\mightysilt_win64\shared\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\inc\keyframe

Transitions will not load - PLEASE HELP!!

I've been dealing with this for some time ... when I'm in the edit window and click on transitions, they will not load. I've spent a lot of time online with support and got only temporary use of transitions. The first time I visited support, the tech was able to take control of my computer and get them working. That lasted for a few days, then they quit working again. I went back to support and a different tech didn't get me all the way through the process, and ended the session after telling me to remove and reinstall, which I did (again). Still, there is no functionality of transitions. They appear to be loading, but I've waited up to 30 minutes before I've clicked out. Please, can someone help me out?

The red lines that Steve was referring to, are when you drag your Clips to the Timeline, prior to doing any editing.
It is natural for red lines to appear above Clips, when any overlay, or Effects are added to the Clips, such as a Title, a Transition, or any parameter/Keyframing done to the Clip. That indicates that for smoothest playback, one would want to Render the Clips (or Timeline), for the best playback.
Having an HP, I would go to HP's Web site, and check for a newer video driver.
Steve's question on the screen resolution is a good one, as to get the full display of the GUI, there is a minimum screen resolution.
Good luck,
Hunt

Export from Speedgrade gives me "Reel Not Loaded" grey box

Thanks in advance for any help.
I sent to Speedgrade from Premiere pro... It didn't load correctly (it gave me reel not loaded errors") so I went to my desktop and added all the dpx files into a new timeline and closed the first one. Then I proceeded to color correct the ensuing timeline. All is happy so far.
Then I went to output and chose Apple Pro Res 444 @23.976 FPS and rendered. When I imported the clip into Premiere Pro some of the color corrected clips made it fine, but others were simply represented by a little grey box in the top left corner which gives me the name of the file (00.00.01.15-clip...) and says "Reel not loaded".
When I watch the clips in the timeline they look great. What am I doing wrong in the export?
Please help.
Thanks.

Did you ever figure this out. I am having the exact same issue.
I sent my project from premiere pro 6 to adobe speedgrade and a bunch of the reels would not load, so I removed the video track and loaded the reels from the desktop by navigating to th efolder where PP6 created the .dpx files.
That LOOKED like it worked.
Th ereels that were not loaded and represented by the grey screen were playing and fully editable, but not that I sent th efootage to AfterEffects to kill a few dead pixels I see that those clips that said that they had not loaded before still have not "loaded"
Everything plays fine in the timeline, but the output gives me the "reel not loaded..." error message.
... This is the first time this has happened to me with SG after producing 4 30-40 minute projects, and this is supposed to be a rush job.
Any insight?

I dragged Event Renders to trash and renamed event files using back up files
2 events work however the remaining 5, still does not allow me to load project. so at this stage the only way I can open project completely is with 2 events which means half project is offline. is there an easy way to manually add the events/footage so I can relink the missing files on the timeline?

Premiere Pro CS6 not loading/linking preview files - any suggestions?

MacPro 2010, 16-core, 2.66 GHz, 32GB RAM, Quadro 4000, OS X 10.7.4
When I save a Project and then reopen it, Premiere Pro CS 6.01 does not load the Preview Files from the Renders. I have checked the specified Preview Files location and the files are there.
In order to work, I must render the entire Project again - which is too time-consuming and counter-productive.
Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Same problem. I've done many projects in CS6 and this is the first time it's happened. FIrst half of the timeline was fine but the second half of the timeline, that was previously fully rendered, couldn't locate the preveiw files. The preview files are still in the preview folder but it doesn't see them in the timeline anymore. How do you delete those preview files since they are no longer recognized in the timeline? I know you can manually delete them in the preview folder by playing them and matching them to the video clips in the timeline.

HP Laserjet M2727nf - Firmware not loading to Printer

My printer display was not working so I ordered a new one. But as I read some postings it seems to be by formatter board. I baked the formatter board. After I baked it, the display would show: Hewitt Packard >>>>>. I did the below
but the firmware utility update is not going to the printer. The display shows ***BootDimm*** Ready 2 download.
I have left the jumper on and have taken it off to upload the firmware to the printer. Nothing has happened.   I have not even seen the display changing to erasing firmware, then programing firmware.
I baked the board and it started to work. I then Download the firmware utility update for my printer.  I Removed the printer left cover. Turned the printer on while it’s was connected by usb. Jumper or short the 2 pin connector - the display read "ready to load firmware". I heard the printer usb driver connect / initialize in windows-
Next I started the HP firmware update utility, select your printer from drop down list.   However the display did not change to erasing firmware, then programing firmware; finally it will display "firmware rom upload complete" - or something close to that. The computer did do this: the progress bar on the firmware update utility in windows completed and displayed the smiley face (about 3 min). Then I turned the printer off - unpluged it and disconnect the usb cable from the printer. It did not load. So where did I go wrong.

Apple included the Gimp-Print driver "HP Laserjet 6 Series" for that printer. Does that show up?

Adobe photoshop will not load on computer???

i just got a new imac with tigar and the leopard update.
i updated to leopard as soon as i started the computer.
then i went to the adobe website and downloaded the trial version of photoshop cs3.
i installed it fine, but when i try to open PS, and error mesage tells me that the licence has ended and to reinstall. so i did, 4 times.
still nothing. what is the problem?
Thanks

i did not load anything on 10.4, when i goto the new imac, i just loaded 10.4 and then immediatly updated to 10.5. i have CS3 on my pc, so i just want to test CS3 on the new mac, to see which runs better. if i like it then i will buy the mac version. so far, my pc will surf the net about 3-4 times faster than the mac. i did not get the mac for net use, only for sound video and photo editing. but i do surf google for images.
right now i am trying to erase and reinstall OX S back to 10.4, then i will try to install CS3 again, then if it works, ill update to 10.5 and see if that works.

Firefox 33.1 does not load Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.223

As far as I can determine, Firefox 33.1 does not load Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.223 (identified on the Plug-ins list as "Shockwave Flash 15.0.0.223") when I access most of the pages on the MSN website. Whether it will display any specific video is unpredictable but it displays about one out of five.
If I place the mouse cursor on the blank black video display area (for which no controls or buttons are displayed), and click the right mouse button, then either (1) the context menu is the same as for clicking the mouse cursor on an empty part of the page, or (2) the context menu is not displayed at all.
Apparently, Firefox has failed to load the plug-in, but does not display any error message. Neither is there any error message displayed by the plug-in.
If you think I am willing to undertake a trial-and-error odyssey through various "do this and see what happens" recommendations in "Knowledge Base" articles and the like, then think again. I don't have the time to make the effort, and I will use Internet Exporer instead. It ought to work with MSN just fine. :-)
Since I did not develop Firefox, this is not my problem to solve. It's your software, not mine, and I didn't make the mistakes, so you fix it.
By the way:
Either Firefox Help does not display the version correctly, or your Troubleshooter doesn't obtain the data correctly. Help says version 33.1 and Troubleshooter says 33.0. YES I KNOW THAT FIREFOX 33.1.1 IS AVAILABLE. SO WHAT?
Troubleshooter also identifies the Shockwave Flash plug-in as "15.0 r0" but the native Add-ons feature identifies it as 15.0.0.223 -- which is the version that Adobe uses.
The last line of the Troubleshooter's "educated guesses" just has "* 5.1.30514.0". I have no idea as to what that refers to and I doubt that anyone else would have one either.
Well, maybe those numbers are good enough for "educated guessers" but in my experience computers do not make "educated guesses" even if software developers do.
Enjoy!

Please refrain from posting scattergun boilerplate suggestions.
Please post specific instructions that will resolve the problem. If you don't know why the problem occurs and how to remedy the problem, then don't bother.
Realize that the problem did not occur with the previous version of Adobe Flash Player, but began after it was updated to 15.0.0.223. So it is is apparently specific to that version, and it may reflect a flaw in Adobe Flash Player. There's no way to actually report it to Adobe. Posting a report in their "user forum" just produces replies like the one that you have posted in reply to my OP, so what is the use?
Evidently you presume that Firefox does not have a bug, that something else doesn't work and you may be right. However, if Firefox does have a bug, then nothing that you have posted will correct it, and experimenting according to your boilerplate will be nothing but a waste of time and effort.
Again, the problem is not that Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.223 does not run, but that it does not run when I attempt to view most of the videos on MSN. It does display videos from YouTube and other websites with an occasional specific exception. If the failure occured on more websites, and with all MSN videos, then maybe your suggestions for investigating it would have more merit.
For what it is worth: the problem occurs in Firefox Safe Mode and without Firefox Safe Mode. Disabling or enabling any extensions or other plug-ins has no effect.
I established that while investigating why Firefox 33.1 started producing crash reports every time that it initially displayed the New Tab page when I visited MSN (Firefox 32 did not do that). I also checked whether the actions that I took to troubleshoot that behavior affected Adobe Flash Player on MSN. They didn't.
Apparently the crash reports occured because Firefox could not find or could not load the "thumbnail" images for website pages that I had previously seen (they are often deleted by ''CCleaner''). The crash reports stopped after I made a couple of changes to the configuration for the ''SandboxIE'' sandbox in which I run Firefox.
Frankly, Firefox "Safe Mode" is something I don't need, because I run Firefox in a ''SandboxIE'' sandbox, which is a much more comprehensive security measure than anything implemented by any specific application. At the moment I don't recall whether Firefox Safe Mode is enabled, although I probaby re-enabled it after disabling it during the crash-report investigation. But it didn't make any difference with regard to Adobe Flash Player in that context, so there's no reason to repeat it.

Blank, white screen: "movie not loaded".

Forgive the use of emoticons, but I am really annoyed
about this new update.
Is everyone else right clicking previously-working Flash
streams/web content only to find "Movie not loaded" appearing?
Or is it just me?
What am I doing wrong - today I went to update Flash as it
kept nagging at me to do so. Biggest mistake of my life.
It seemed to install fine; I got the screen with the red F
icon and the green and white bar moving, then it loaded and I got
to the page where I was meant to see a confirmation message. But
nothing, just a blank white space.
I've tried to reinstall, I've tried SubInACL method with the
cmd script, I've tried to change ActiveX options as Adobe advised,
I've right clicked and changed user permissions and I have been
through the Adobe troubleshooting article.
Is there another method? I'm tearing my hair out - this
morning everything worked fine, and now all my internet
entertainment is not working!
I'm using Vista Home Basic....if there are any other ideas
please do post them!

Did you ever find a solution for this? I am experienceing the
same issue.
