Trouble with adding dissolves

I'm sure there's an obvious answer to this but I'm stumped. The "EFFECTS" tab has disappeared from the browser and I don't know how I lost it or how to get it back. Can't find anything in manuals about why the tab would go away. I was in the thick of a problem that was never a problem before, which is that I could not add a cross dissolve between a slug and a title clip, it kept coming out as 1 frame of fade between the clips. Now, after trying it by various familiar means, suddenly the EFFECTS tab is gone! HELP! (please & thanx) - Gary

Created in FCE. This is truly baffling. I basically just created the text, white on black, and not knowing any better, stacked them on the timeline to see if that would work... And it did! Except for the strange staggered fade effect. I swear opacity is the same on all. Only filter is a .5 anti-alias on each clip.
I created a menu graphic for this VFX showreel exactly the same way, one text clip atop the other in a stack of 12 clips. They had to be on seperate tracks so that each chapter could have a highlighted text title. I did this in the most straightforward way possible... Background on the bottom track, 2 reel title clips on the top 2 tracks and 10 chapter text/title clips on the 10 tracks in between. When playhead moves across the timeline they all show equally, 100%.
Thanks for looking into it. Now I have two mysteries unstead of one. Doh!

Trouble with adding dissolves addendum

Okay, I got the EFFECTS tab back, it was unchecked in the window. Problem remains, what I've been doing for awhile now, dragging a dissolve from the browser to the playhead position between clips... IS NOT WORKING ANYMORE! What the heck am I missing here?!

Delete FCE preferences, repair the permissions and re-boot if the trouble persists.

Can you provide an example of how I might be able to create a JSP that will allow and image to be uploaded for use by CQ? I already gave the dialog with the smartimage configured, but as I said, the image won't be saved when I click 'OK'.

-trouble with Cross Dissolve

Hi
wondering if some one can help , i put a cross dissolve between two clips and can not get it to work, if i put any other tranistaion they all work fine.
why
Thanks

What happens when you try to add a dissolve?
And are you sure it isn't a HANDLE issue?
#1 Transitions "Insufficient Content"
Shane's Stock Answer #1:
You need to make sure that your clips have enough media (called 'handles') at the beginning of the incoming clip and at the end of the outgoing clip for the transition. For example, if you have a 1 second (30 frame) dissolve, your in and out point need to be at least 15 frames from the edge of the clip.
What you are running into is that you are marking an out point at the end of a clip then adding a cross dissolve, say 20 frames in duration. Since the dissolve is centered on the cut, it will start 10 frames before the cut, and try to go 10 frames AFTER the cut...which it can't do.
What you need to do is plan how long your dissolve will be and back-time your cut so that it works.
a full 1 second crossfade reaches 15 frames into each clip. So, if you want to change a cut to a crossfade, there has to be at least 15 additional frames of each clip.
Say you're trying to crossfade from one clip into the very first frame of a second clip. FCP cannot 'create' 15 more frames of the second clip to do a crossfade. If they're not there, you're out of luck.
FCP has to extend the end of your first clip by 1/2 of your transition length, and the beginning of your second clip by 1/2 of your transition length, so those frames need to be in your system. The nature of a crossfade is mixing two clips together.

Trouble with Cross dissolve duration

I amediting stils with motion and I can't get my video cross dissolve transitions to extend. they are basically 1 or 2 frames that's it. What am I doing wrong?

Trim your ins and out by an amount equal to the length of the dissolve you want to insert.
EG. 30 frame dissolve: trim outgoing clip by 15 frames... trim incoming clip by 15 frames... butt clips together and add the dissolve.

Trouble with adding certain songs to iTunes and displaying podcasts on iPod

i just ripped a cd into mp3s onto my computer and i tagged the tracks and everthing but i can't add the tracks to my iTunes for some reason. i tried dragging it into the window and selecting "add file to library" but it doesnt work. i was planning on ripping the cd and trying again, but i was wondering why i cant add those tracks.
also, i recently subscribed to a podcast, which i havent done before. after i had updated my iPod with the podcasts, i went into video > video podcasts but it didnt show anything. my recently added list shows the videos but it doesnt show up in my podcasts or any of my other video areas. isn't it supposed to show up there?

It could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
See: Some songs don't don't show under artist on my iPod.

Trouble with adding images from database

So I have created this nice little table and want to populate it with an test row and I cant seam to get it to work. I have neber delt with BLOB before and maybe its with that. Well here is the sql code that I am using
CREATE TABLE Product (name VARCHAR2 (60), price INTEGER,discrip VARCHAR2(100),photo BLOB, quantity INTEGER)
INSERT INTO Product VALUES ('Inuyasha Final Act', 39.52, 'Join Inuyasha and Kagome as they continue their quest to find the jewel of the four souls and defeat Naraku.', 'INUFinalAct.JPG');
Did I not put in the images right? how should I load this into the database?
It creates the table nice and dandy, but it will not populate the table at all. What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks for any help

This seams to have no SQL error, but when I try to put it into the oracle server, it gave this problem
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-01465: invalid hex number
Is this because it does not know where the image is? If that is so how do I get it to know where the image is?It's worse than that... Oracle doesn't even know it's an image.
All Oracle knows is that you have a column of BLOB datatype, which can be used for storing any type of binary data, not just images, and you are trying to insert something of datatype VARCHAR2 into it (a string with some characters in). That string may be the name of the image to you, but to Oracle it's just a string.
Follow hoek's link for good examples of how to do it, as it involves you using other functionality first to read the binary file from the file system into a BLOB variable, before you then insert that BLOB variable into your table.

I do every thing by rote and am I having trouble with adding goggle earth/downloading my camera/java/etc etc what I need is a simple map eg: tools addons bouse all add ons once I have this path I may appreciate the system

see question its pretty clear

I have added tools.jar to :
/usr/share/tomcat6/lib
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/extI tried to compile again and to my surprise everything went smooth except that now I am getting this error:
BUILD FAILED
/usr/local/OpenGTS/build.xml:101: CATALINA_HOME environment variable has not been defined.
nyash@ubuntu:/usr/local/OpenGTS$ echo $CATALINA_HOME
/usr/share/tomcat6Which brings me to the same point I started in :-/
As shown above I have $CATALINA_HOME defined in /etc/bash.bashrc, here's what I got there:
export GTS_HOME=/usr/local/OpenGTS
export CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/tomcat6
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATHDo I have $CATALINA_HOME corrently defined?
If not, how should it look like?

Trouble with adding subscriber

Have a subscriber server with 4.0(1) disks. These are the disks that I orignally built the publisher.
I have since upgraded the publisher to 4.1.3sr3. When I went to install CCM Su from the disks that I have, it gives error 1603 and says something about mismatch. Assuming that it was wanted newer version of install, I tried to run the 4.1.3 upgrade exe, but that said it was only for upgrade.
Any idea's how to move this install along?

Mark,
I am sorry if I misunderstood how your existing setup is. Let me ask you this.
Do you have a subscriber server which has 4.01 version installed ?
or
Is it that you have 4.01 disks, and no subscriber built yet, but want to build one from scratch?
How did you upgrade the Publisher server (which was at 4.01) to 4.13 ?
a. Did you use 4.13 disks (which you dont have now)
b. Did you use the web upgrade file downloadeable from CCO , to upgrade to 4.12 and then another downloadeable file which upgrades 4.12 to 4.13 ?
There is no direct upgrade path from 4.01 to 4.13, and since your publisher is already built at 4.13, the easiest way to perform this upgrade is to get the 4.13 disks set (You can order this through PUT if you have smartnet).

Trouble with adding attachment to email-can't get to the word choose

When I get to the attachment page and pick the attachment I want to add to my email I can't get to the word choose at the bottom of the page and I can't adjust the page size to make it smaller because it's not in view either. When I log in on another computer I have no problem. I also just started having this problem, I'm not sure but maybe it started after installing safari 4.0.

Trouble with adding photos to a collection

Hi,
till LR 4.1 it was easy to add photos to an existing collection. I just selected photos and dragged+dropped them on the name of the collection. Job done. This seems not to work in LR 4.2 any longer. I can only add photos to a collection by using the context menu of the collection ("Add marked photos to this collection" [most probably the correct English term is different as I work with the German edition of LR 4.2]). Is this supposed to be a feature - or just a bug?
Additionally I can't put photos in an individual order any more. Sorting them by date, name etc - easy! But rearranging the manually doesn't work any longer with my version. Again: feature or bug?
Any hint is welcome!
Regards,
Volker

I can't reproduce it here so far - what OS?
You're dragging from the thumbnail itself, and not the border surrounding?
You've restarted your computer?

Trouble with adding javac.exe to PATH

I saw a few similar posts, but none seem to help me fix this. I have updated my Environmental Variables >> PATH to include the C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_14\bin directory.
When I am in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_14\bin directly, both java - version, and javac -version commands return appropriate results.
When I shell back to C:\>, java -version works fine, however c:\>javac -version yields the following error:
'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
Any thoughts? Are there programs that will get me straight to an environment where I can code and compile in windows without having to worry about where to compile in the windows shell? Maybe one of those programs will automatically correct for this situation? (It might also help me with my sytax dyslexia as well!!)
Thanks in advance!!
Don

Sounds like,
1)PATH is still not set properly. or
2)You have not restarted cmd prompt after setting path.(type "set" in cmd prompt and confirm if it is set or not).

Trouble with adding RAM

Replaced the original 2 x 2 GB RAM with Corsair Value Select 2x 4 GB DDR3 on my laptop (HP Pavilion g7-1070us). But the BIOS still only sees 4 GB so does the Windows 7 (64 bit). This is the case even when I installed an old (2 GB) with a new ( 4GB) for a total of 6 GB or two new ones (4 + 4 GB) for a total of 8 GB.
Please help!

Yes and you do not need low voltage 1.35 volt memory. The memory you bought is for newer laptops. You need DDR3-1333 memory which Frys should have in stock.
