Uninstall to reinstall question

Hi all,
I just upgraded my "Production Suite" to FCP Studio. The install went well enough and everything was working just find. Then I don't know what I did but all of a sudden Motion started acting squirrelly. When I "Apply" an item it comes in off centered, the location indicator of the timeline doesn't line up with the frame it's at. Like when I press the home key, the indicator moves to frame 2 and not frame 1. This is just a visual thing but it would be nice to have it line up properly.
So I was going to uninstall and then reinstall the app. But I can't find any info on which files I need to trash. I've tried trashing the prefs and reinstalling (without uninstalling first) and it hasn't helped. So I'm hoping the community can help.
Thanks in advance.

With your installation, you also have installed the motion library of effects. You may not need to delete those files. I would delete the app and just the pref.list from my USER/LIBRARY/PREFERENCES folder and re-install the app. See how you go...

  • Can't find my data file to back up, so I can uninstall and reinstall the software. (Windows, Vista & Palm version 6.0.1)

    I can't find my data file, in order to back it up.  After going to Documents - Palm One, the only thing that looks like a user name is a file with no data.  Somewhere there has to be another file with all my data, since data is available when I open the Palm One software on my computer.  After backing it up, I want to uninstall and reinstall the Palm One software.  I'm hoping this resolves my inabilty hot sync.  Thanks!  Lauraflavin.

    This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
    Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Can i uninstall and reinstall itunes w/out losing my library?

    If so how? For some reason my itunes will no longer sync with my ipod.

    I think if you are just uninstalling and reinstalling the same version of itunes, and you don't already have a problem with your library, it should be fine - however, you should copy your existing library file. The actual library file is called 'iTunes Library.itl' in your itunes folder; you should copy it to another folder just in case. Also check in iTunes help for 'saving playlists,' which might be another good thing to copy and put in a different folder just in case.
    My recent experience was that I went from 7.4.2.4 to 7.3.2.6 and couldn't use my library file because it had been changed by 7.4 so it wouldn't work with 7.3. So I couldn't open itunes until I deleted the library file, which meant I had to reimport all my music and lost my playlists. It's been a big bummer, but I couldn't access the itunes store at all with the newest version and everything I tried didn't work, and I wanted to download and watch my daily shows!
    I don't know if this really answers your question - I think if you are getting an error message you should try to find out why, because it seems like some people are having problems even after they reinstall.

  • Firefox states it is already running yet won't open even after I uninstalled and reinstalled

    Hi,
    I was having problems with Mozilla when I'd go to Facebook it would show the page but within seconds I would get check6 (can't remember the rest) error page.
    So I went to help, restart Firefox. It was at this for about an hour and I knew there was a problem so chose to end process in task manager.
    Since then I haven't been able to open Firefox:
    "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system".
    I uninstalled Firefox using Revo Uninstaller and deleted all leftover files, restarted my computer and installed Firefox, but the problem still remains.
    I tried looking through previous questions and noticed I do no have a profile folder which may be needed to delete a lock file....
    Any help much appreciated! thanks

    I had this problem yesterday, actually. You can solve it, but you will lose all firefox data you didn't back up. Then again, because you already tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I assume this isn't an issue.
    Assuming you've installed windows on the C drive:
    Go to C://Users/yourname/AppData
    If you cant find it, go to your display settings (I hope I translated this correct; I use the Dutch version of Windows) and make sure that hidden files and filders are not being... well, hidden. Shocking plottwist, I know.
    If all goes well, you should now see three folders named Local, Localrow and Roaming.
    Now go to Roaming > Mozilla > Firefox and delete everything thats in there. Now you have an empty FireFox folder, which will force Firefox to start up as if it was never installed before.
    Done! :)
    P.S. Now that you have a fresh new install, save yourself a lot of future pain and install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/xmarks-sync Xmarks] for your bookmarks and [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/lastpass-password-manager LastPass] for your passwords. These add-ons will keep your data safely on their servers, where it is yours to backup and download anywhere in the world.
    Also, if you have about three milion add-ons and personas/themes and you don't want to hunt hem down again everytime you reïnstall Windows or buy a new system, get [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/febe FEBE] to save a copy of them for you. And if you really want to backup like a pro, install [https://www.dropbox.com/ DropBox] (not an addon) and tell FEBE to store its files there, so you can still retrieve them if your house happens to burn down.
    Xmarks, LastPass and FEBE: the holy trinity of Firefox backups :P

  • Illustrator CC2014 does not respond whenever I open a file or create a new file. I have tried restarting my PC (Windows 8) and uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator.

    I used a trial version first before purchasing the program. I have restarted my computer and uninstalling and reinstalling the program. I haven't added anything to the program. Thanks in advance to anyone able to answer my question.

    Whitney,
    Did you reinstall using the full three step way (otherwise strange things may linger)?
    Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

  • Acrobat 9.5.5 must uninstall and reinstall.  if I uninstall will I have to buy a new product?

    Chat support has sent me to the forums for help.
    My Adobe Acrobat 9.5.5 suddenly will not open.
    The error is that I must uninstall and reinstall.
    I have run a repair, and restarted the computer, but the problem persists.
    My question: if I do uninstall my Adobe Acrobat 9.5.5, will I be able to
    reinstall it?  or will I need spend another $299 to buy a new product?

    If you run out of activations because of a failure, you can talk to support to explain and have them increase the number of activations. You will still need the install file (I hope you backed it up) and the SN (and SN for qualifying product if an upgrade). After the install, you will still have to do the updates.

  • What do i need to uninstall and reinstall photoshop cs5 extended windows 7 32-bit?

    what do i need to uninstall and reinstall photoshop cs5 extended windows 7 32-bit?

    Photoshop CS5 Extended suddenly stopped recognizing my NVIDIA 3D card (NVIDIA Quadro FX 1800M). No 3D graphics will work in Photoshop. An Adobe online tech worked with me on it for about an hour. We concluded that I would go try to update the NVIDIA driver. The NVIDIA website is frustrating. The boxes to input my card model and system do not work.
    Nawang uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop (my question below was about how to do that, but he did it for me and that did not help.)
    My card is 3D capable. I used Repousse 3D effect two days ago and it worked fine. Now it is not working, all 3D controls are grayed out.

    Hey Mlynch13,
    Thanks for the question, and amazing troubleshooting so far. There are a few things we can attempt on your computer, including restarting the Apple Mobile Device Support, and checking for the USB drivers:

  • Would uninstall and reinstalling photoshop CC affect payment?

    There was a Photoshop CC update today, but when I tried to install it I was faced with a u44m1p7 error. Adobe's website mentioned uninstalling and reinstalling it, so I am in the process of doing that.
    But,er, forgive me if this is a dumb question, would this affect my subscription with Photoshop CC (as in, would I need to somehow pay double the cost?)
    Sorry for the question, but I was really worried

  • Uninstall and reinstall an album

    I bought and downloaded an album and there is 1 song that only downloaded about 1/2 ....
    how can I uninstall and reinstall either that song or album??
    Also, how do I correct it on my iPod??!!
    Thanks!!!

    Uninstalling the app is not necessary, it will not help/solve or help solve your issue at all. Just open Logic and use the menu command Logic Pro > Download Additional Content... anything you forgot to tick the first time should still be available.
    To answer your now superfluous question: yes, you can redownload Logic Pro without having to pay for it again.

  • Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes?

    Hi there. I just finished a firmwaree update on my MacBook, as well as an iOS 6 update on my iPhone, and now iTunes is telling me my version is corrupted or not insatlled properly? I'm being asked to uninstall and reinstall. Two questions:
    1. How do i uninstall? Is it as simple as going to Apple.com and downlaoding the latest version of iTunes?
    2. Is all my current content safe?

    Hi,
    Yes, download latest version of iTunes from apple.com
    Your content should be safe but you should have a back up in any event.

  • Need to uninstall and reinstall, but my dvd/cd reader is inoperative

    Hi!
    My photoshop elements (version 9) says I need to uninstall and reinstall (error code 6), but my cd player no longer works.  Can I download it from the site?  Also, not sure of my activation code.

    Download from here - http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-direct-download-links.h tml. Follow their very important instructions EXACTLY or you will likely encounter authorisation errors or download the latest version instead.
