Trim tool and the malfunctioning roll edit/precision edit

I'll get this out of the way first: there is no space between any clips. I use snapping and I zoom in if there is any question. This is not the problem, I assure you. Also, I have trashed preferences with Preference Manager a couple of times. I have restarted FCPX and my computer several times. Zapped PRAM and repaired permissions several times.
So...my trim tool is malfunctioning big time. The proper cursor appears within a clip and I am able to slide edit. However, put same cursor over a cut and it turns into the default cursor allowing the moving of only one side or the other of the cut; not both. Click on the cut and only one side of the cut is selected. Double-click on the cut and instead of getting the precision editor, nothing at all happens. Go to the menu and the Show Precision Editor selection is grayed out.
At this point I'm wondering if a reinstall of the app is called for but I'm hoping someone out there has a less daunting suggestion.
thx

Well...ghosts in the machine...I wrote a long explanation as to why I thought it fruitless to post screen shots because all I was talking about was a cursor on a cut that didn't perform like it was supposed to. I didn't know how I would convey something NOT happening.
Anyway, before I hit Add Reply I thought I'd go back to the edit and see if I could find anyting that would represent. So I went to the timeline with my trim tool and suddenly it's working properly AND I am able to select both sides of the cut which I couldn't do before.
I have no explanation. I had done nothing with since I posted my question. Never mind.
But I do see what you're saying about connected clips. I didn't know that one is not allowed to do that with similarly abutted clips. Why on earth is would that be?

How do I change the size of the tools and the text for the menus in Photoshop? I need a magnifying glass in order to make out what they are.

How do I change the size of the tools and the text for the menus in Photoshop? I need a magnifying glass in order to make out what they are.

Okay, I've figured it out, so I'm going to answer my own question in hopes that it may help anyone else that would like to actually be able to see what they're doing when using Photoshop CC 2014 on a high resolution screen.
1. Open Photoshop.
2. Select Preferences from the Edit Menu, then select General.
3. Change the HUD Color Picker to Hue Strip (Medium).
4. Select Interface from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
5. Change the UI Font Size to Large in the Text area of the Preferences dialog box.
6. Select Experimental Features from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
7. Select Scale UI 200% for high-density displays (Windows only).
8. Click on OK, then Exit/Quit Photoshop.
9. Open Photoshop and everything should be readable.

In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll. Is there a way to adjust this?

In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll. Is there a way to adjust this? This is the way I scrolled for MIDI editing on Logic 9

Hi cris2121, assuming you're using a mouse from apple, go to >System Preferences<
it's here where one can configure a mouse device.
Additionally you can also configure Scrubbing in Logic: "When in scrub mode, you can slowly move the playhead in the Tracks Window and the Audio (and optional MIDI) will be played back. The playback speed depends on how fast you move the Playhead in either direction."
Have a nice day!

Hi w james,
As you mentioned that you are upgrading your Operating System to Windows 8 and MS Office to MS Office Professional 2013, please note that Adobe Acrobat 9 is not compatible with Windows 8 and MS Office 2013. You need to upgrade to Adobe Acrobat XI as it is fully compatible with Windows 8 and MS Office 2013.

I cannot find the video that I added to the iPad. I looked in iPhoto and the camera roll. Any ideas? (BTW, this is a video which I previously had on the iPad but deleted and now I want to add it back.)

Thanks for your reply. I looked in the Video app but it is empty. When I connect the iPad to iTunes on the iMac and look in Apps > File Sharing > iPhoto, the video that I added is in iPhoto on the iPad but I cannot actually find the video in iPhoto on the iPad.

I want to be able to draw a scalloped box using the line tool and the arc tool, (for the corners), t

So I'm trying to make a logo that starts of with a scalloped square background. I drew this creating 4 lines with inverted arcs at the corners then grouped all pieces into one - a new shape. So now I need to color it in and this (should be a piece of cake step) is giving me a run for my money. Why can't a fill it in? I ended up freehand tracing it (badly) with the pencil tool and filling that in but that creates prob.s that you can imagine. Please help- someone!?!?!

Is this any use?
Do the whole thing with filled circles. Then Pathfinder (panel) Unite.

Supporting detail disappeared and the could not edit

We have a planning app (v 11.1.2.2) and one user told me he entered some data into supporting detail for one cell. After he save it and the cell data became 0. And he could not edit that cell anymore. Tried to editing supporting edit for that cell brought back a blank page. I tried that cell and although the data is 0 and I could not update supporting detail either. It just brings a blank page for supporting detail. User can still enter and edit supporting details for other cells. I can think of a couple things to do:
1. Check the relational db and delete the supporting detail for that cell.
2. Restart Planning services to see if that fixes it.
But before I do that, I want to know if anyone of you encounter the same thing or not. And is there any other way to fix that.
Thanks

Thanks! That icon color is barely visible. I never noticed it was there! I need to change it to more contrast color.

Why does the move tool and the resize function freeze when I insert pictures to a layer?

This is very annoying. I was stupid enough to buy a one year subscription to Photoshop CC, only to find that it is ruining my happiness. I am trying to run it on a brand new Macbook Pro 15 retina i7 running Yosemite, and everything works fine, except for this one thing - when I drag a new photo into a layer, the resize function and the move tool stops working for a very long time. If I am patient enough, the functions will finally wake up. Is there a way to get around this problem? I have searched the forum without any luck, and I am just about to start jumping up and down, calling Adobe by names that will make my neighbors cover up their ears. $/!"%%#/&%"#W)!ÆY!!!

Right-mouse on the Synaptics toolbar icon to bring up Mouse Properties, select the Device Settings tab, press Settings to bring up Properties for Synatpics ClickPad, on the left open Pointing... Sensitivity... Palm Check. This is a feature to prevent accidental touchpad movement by your palm while you're typing. So it prevents use of the touch pad when keys are directly used.
Good luck!

Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "Cannot take photo" there is not enough available storage to take a photo, etc? I have it hooked up to ICloud and the cameral roll???

Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "cannot take photo" there's not enough storage, but I have my phone/camera roll hooked up to Icloud and have purchased additional storage???

iCloud storage has nothing to do with remaining memory on the phone - only memory for backups and Photostream. The photo has to first be stored on the phone and copies sent to iCloud. If there is not enough available memory on the phone, the photo can't be taken.
To determine the remaining memory on the phone:
Settings > General > Usage > Storage
The Camera Roll is meant for temporary storage of photos, which should be imported to an app on your computer and deleted from Camera Roll. You can then sync back those photos which you want to keep on the phone.

I've got the move tool and the layer selected...

but for some reason I can't get the text to align anywhere. The align buttons are acting as if they are greyed out. Is there something I'm missing?

You need at least two layers selected (the text layer and the background layer) or the text layer and a selection (i.e. Select All...) for the alignment commands and buttons to enable and to alight the text to the document.

In Indesign I would like to be able to have the tools and the controls open automatically when I open a new page or document. Now I have to select them in the windows drop down.

I do not want to have to choose these two controls or tools in InDesign each time I open a new page or doc. How can I make them open automatically?

With nothing open, try pressing the tab key, and/or resetting the workspace.

HT201317 do i need photos in photo stream and the camera roll?

I want to know what is the difference between camera roll and photo stream. Do I need both? Are they taking up memory space on my phone? Thank you for any help. I have an Iphone 5, 16 GB

The camera roll contains the original photos that were added to photo stream. They may be slightly higher resolution than the photo stream photos as photo stream photos are "device optimized". Once camera roll photos are in your photo stream, if you want to save space you can import them to your computer and delete them from your phone, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
It's important to import your camera roll photos to your computer for safekeeping and not rely on photo stream to back them up. The reason for this is because photo stream photos are only kept in iCloud for 30 days, even though a rolling collection of up to 1000 photos will remain on your phone until deleted. If, however, you ever turn off photo stream, restore your phone or replace your phone for any reason, when you reconnect to photo stream you will only get back photos from the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer there).

Quick selection tool doesn't snap to to the nearest area. Working more like a lasso tool and the add layer button doesn't seem to creat the cutout that it should.

Quick selection tool in elements 13 doesn't snap to the nearest border area of the photo. Works more like a lasso. Also the add layer button when clicked on only brings up a black layer, not a black mask with a hole where I just cut.

Which OS are you working on?
Please try resetting your tools from Photo Bin flyout menu.
1. Open Photo bin.
2. Click on Fly Out menu
3. Click on option Reset all Tools
4. Relaunch Editor13
and see if it helps.
Thanks,

Will best buy carry Tales of Xillia 2 and the collector's edition?

Hello, I just learned that the new Tales of Xillia 2 coming to ps3 in august will also have a collector's edition. I know Best Buy carried the first game and am hoping to use my GCU on the collectors if you guys will carry and be taking preorders on this. Thanks!

Hey MuricanDavester,
We have no word on Tales of Xillia 2 at this time, but as we carried the original it does seem a good bet that we will have the sequel. As always, please keep an eye on www.BestBuy.com for any updates, and we will also try to post back here if we get any information for you.
Thanks,
