Want to move to FCE HD but have questions before I drop the coin . . .

I currently have Adobe Premiere 3.0 on a Windows machine, plus I'm primarily a still photographer, so my video experience is limited. I'd rather do all of my video work on my new iMac, so I'm looking at buying Final Cut Express HD instead of returning to Premiere.
It will be primarily used for producing instructional DVDs and in some places I will want to use some stop motion. As I see it, I have two choices: shoot in DV and edit, or produce a slideshow from stills shot at 2.5 frames per sec. and import that into a video. I'd want to dub in a voice-over narration to either one. The stop motion would have to have irregular timed spacing, so that the key images could be held for a time while the narration explains what is going on. These sequences would then be edited into the larger video as DVD chapters.
Would FInal Cut Express HD be capable of handling either method?
I'm currently an Aperture user -- can FCE HD read Aperture libraries for the incorporation of still images into video?
Can I build a slide show in FCE HD or would other software be preferable and the result exported to FCE HD?
Thanks

You can use it to make slideshow videos/DVDs but FCE can only work in DV quality so your slides will be a maximum of 768x576 in PAL and less in NTSC.
Compared with viewing them on a computer monitor of 1024x768 or more, some people find the quality a little disappointing.
You can of course do it in HDV where the quality should be very high but most people have not yet got that equipment.

HT1040 trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.

trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.
if i clear the book so that it is all blanks and then try to load in the pictures i have it loses the chronology of the pictures that i had established in the album.
is there a way to import photos into an ibook template and keep the original order of the photos without having to do them one at a time?
also, is there a way to insert a photo rather than just dragging it? i have tried the cut and paste funciton but it doesn't seem to work, the target site doesn't seem to register with iphoto.
many thanks for your help.

Photos are added to book in chronological order. So if you want to add them to a book in the order you have placed them manually in an album do the following:
1 - select all the photos in the album.
2 - use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option as shown here. Select any date and add 1 minute between photos.
3 - select just one photo from the album and create a book from it.
4 - in the book click on the Options button ➙ Book Settings button and make sure the checkbox for Auto-layout pages is unchecked.
5 - drag the album with your book photos onto the book icon and they will be imported into the Photos tray of the book in your pre-determined order but not into the pages themselves.

I want to buy the movie Crazy Stupid Love but it is not available in the US, only in the UK. I live in the US but is it possible to switch the itunes store so that I can buy that movie?

It used to be in the US iTunes Store as that's where I purchased it. Often the studios will temporarily pull a movie from the store during times the movie is scheduled to be shown on TV or cable TV as the TV network has been granted exclusive access during the period. It will return to the store later.

I use an external hard drive as a Time Machine back up, but I want to use another external hard drive to save movies, photos on it, but it won't give me the option to save anything on the new external hard drive. Nothing is wrong with the external hard.

Hi Clarkett99,
To use an external hard drive for your iTunes library, see the steps in this article -

iPhoto can be used in a similar way, follow the steps in this previous discussion -

Where are you looking?

Keep in mind that your Library folder is hidden by default in Mountain Lion.
To find it, hold down the option key and choose the Go menu in the Finder.
You might also want to try posting your question over in the iWeb area.

In order to purchase from the U.S. iTunes Store you need a)a valid billing address in the U.S., b) a credit/debit card billed to that address or an iTunes prepaid card purchased in the U.S. and c) to be physically located in the U.S. at the time of purchase.

I have Acrobat X Pro on my old laptop and want to transfer to my new but have forgotten my serial number. What can I do ?

Hi,
If you have purchased the Acrobat via Adobe Online Store then the serial number should reflect under your Adobe.com account.
Go to http://www.adobe.com and login with Adobe ID and then click on "Manage Account".
Or else you need to Adobe Chat Support to retrieve your serial number.

There is an app I want to purchase for my iphone , but can't find it on the app store from my MacBook Pro

There is an app I want to purchase for my iphone , but can't find it on the app store from my MacBook Pro. I have credit on the Mac Book, but can't see it from iphone.

Are you checking from within the Apps section of iTunes on your computer? Is there a reason you can't download it directly to the iPhone?

If I want to order by dateAdded to I have to include it in the select statement like

If I do this:
<cfquery name="chart" datasource="#datasource#">
select behaviourID,score, dateAdded2 = convert(varchar,
dateAdded , 101)
from staff_charts_data
where userID =
<cfqueryparam value="#arguments.userID#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer"> AND
NOT score = 5
</cfquery>
If I want to order by dateAdded to I have to include it in
the select statement like so:
<cfquery name="chart" datasource="#datasource#">
select behaviourID,score, dateAdded2 = convert(varchar,
dateAdded , 101),dateAdded
from staff_charts_data
where userID =
<cfqueryparam value="#arguments.userID#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer"> AND
NOT score = 5
</cfquery>

you should be able to order by dateAdded without it being in
the select clause. The only time the order by field has to be in
the select clause is when your query has an aggregate and group by
clause, like this:
select field1, field2, max(field3) as youralias
from sometables
where whatever
group by field1, field2
order by ???
You can only order field1, field2, max(field3) or youralias.
You can't order by field4.

for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer.
