What's the fastest way to select multiple side by side clips in an event?

I want to select the bottom half of clips in an event so I can detach the audio. The only way I know how to do this is to hold down the command button as I select individual clips. There's gotta be an easier way! Is there a button (or buttons) I can hold down so that I can just drag over the clips I want to select? Alternatively, if there's a way I can just select the first clip, and then have it select every clip in between as I select the last clip, that would work too. Remember, I'm only selecting half of the clips, not all, and not all minus just a few, as I know easy ways to select all and also almost all clips.
This is sooooo ridiculously basic that I can only conclude that either I am an idiot, or Apple puts their B-list developers in charge of this application, or both.
Lastly if it's not too much to ask, can I get a woop woop!?

It's the Shift key. It's not a button. It's shifts from lower case to upper case when typing. It's been called the Shift key since the 19th century.

  • What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

    Hi Everyone
    i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
    Cheers

    If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
    If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
    Your question as posed was:
    What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
    in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.

  • What is the fastest way of getting data?

    With a scanning electron microscope, I need to scan a 512*512 pixel area with a pixel repetition of 15000 (two channels), meaning averaging over 15000 measurements. Simultaneously I have to adjust the voltage output for every pixel.
    I am using a 6111E Multifunction I/O board in a 800MHz P3. The whole task has do be done as fast as possible (not more than 20 minutes altogether).
    What is the fastest way to get this huge amount of data with averaging and output in between? (E.g. do I use buffered read with hardware triggering or is there a faster way?)

    Using the NI-DAQ API (not LabView) will give you a significant amount of more control over what happens and when to the data stream; which translates to a more efficient program. But you need to program in C/C++ or Delphi then. The Measurement Studio provides ActiveX controls that are like the LabView ones for C&C++ (they�re slow like the LabView ones though � not a lot you can do about the Windows GDI).
    What are you trying to sample 15000 times? The 512*512 pixel field?
    That�s almost 15Gigs of data! And it means you need to process data at 12.8MB/s to finish it in 20 minutes. I hope you know C, x86 assembly and MMX.
    I would setup a huge circular buffer (NI-DAQ calls them �double buffers�), about 30 seconds worth or so, to use with SCAN_Start. Then I would proces
    s the actual buffer the card is DMA�ing the data into with a high priority thread. Progressively sum the scan values from the 16bit buffer (the samples are only 12 bit, but the buffer should still be 16bits wide) into a secondary buffer of DWORDs the size of the screen (512*512), and you�ll need two of those, one for each channel. Once the 15000 scans are complete, convert each entry into a float divide by 15000.0f, and store it in a third buffer of floats.

  • What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users?

    (I originally submitted this question under the "Mac OS X Technologies" section, but got no response. I'm submitting a duplicate here because this is where all the smart folks are! My apologies that my question is only partially related to OS X Server . . . )
    What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users on iOS and OS X?
    For example, suppose I have three collections of contacts: Bob's, Sally's, and Common. I want Bob to be able to access and sync Bob's contacts and Common contacts, and Sally to access and sync Sally's contacts and Common contacts. Bob and Sally never need to access or sync each other's contacts. Bob and Sally would both sync and share contacts in Common.
    How would I best implement this? It's my understanding I have three options for managing contacts across iOS and OS X: 1. iCloud accounts, 2. Install OS X server, or 3. Install and manage Darwin CardDAV directly. Which method would best support what I wish to do?
    I am a seasoned Unix geek well versed in the terminal, so I am prepared to get my hands dirty as much as necessary to achieve what I want. Also, it is sufficient if syncing takes place over WiFi on the local network, in fact, that is desirable versus syncing over the cloud.

    Thanks for your reply Nick101. I see my example was oversimplified. When I say "multiple groups of contacts over multiple users" I'm really referring to N groups of contacts over N users.
    So I need to add Fred, who can access and sync Bob's contacts, Sally's contacts, and Common contacts, as well as Fred's contacts. Can I do it with OS X server?
    You mention you keep your and your partner's contacts administered locally. What keeps you from administering them through OS X server as well?
    I am guessing this can all somehow be accomplished with multiple contact accounts, but I can't find any information on the web explicitly describing this.

  • Sq01 what is the fastest way,

    hi all,
    what is the fastest way to detect coding that update to eban  from sq01?
    as i am facing problem with more than 100,000 PRs updated mysteriously (customer tab data ) without any history changes .
    i suspected it might be from query and i need to find the root cause of problem immediately
    pls advice

    Hi Ester,
    Haven't got clearly what you written.
    You mean to say, there is modifications done to query for updation?
    if it is a standard code then I don't think it is used for modification.

  • What's the fastest way to share files live between 2 Macs in the same room?

    Please can I have some advice on this scenario?
    I'll need to share HD video footage between 2 new Mac Pros in the same room. 1 Mac will be used to upload the footage and the other to edit it using FCP. The footage can be stored either on hard drives in the edit machine or on desktop hard drives connected to the edit machine (or if there is a better option I'm open to advice).
    What is the fastest way of sharing the files and what is the simplest way?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    What is the fastest way of sharing the files and what is the simplest way?
    Fastest way? a fiber channel SAN connecting the two machines to a common fiber-channel based storage array. Can't beat it for performance, but it comes at a cost (think $20K as a starting point, depending on the amount of storage you need).
    Simplest way? Some external media (thumb drive, external hard drive, etc.) that you shuffle between the two machines
    Intermediate: a NAS-based storage box on your network, although be aware that real-time editing of HD video can overwhelm many low-end NAS boxes.

    What is the easiest way to transfer multiple photos attached to a TEXT message to my MAC?

    @randers4
    That is exactly what I've been doing.
    I get dozens of photos from a job site every day and it just takes forever.
    I had hoped there was an easier - or at least more direct and simpler way.
    Thanks anyway.

  • What is the fastest way to transfer files and applications from an older iMac to a new MacBook Pro?

    What is the fastest way to transfer files and applications from an older iMac to a new MacBook Pro?
    I have a Firewire cable and Thunderbolt adapter, but no icons showing either Mac appear on either desktop.

    The fastest way is to use Carbon Copy Cloner and a external drive formatted GUID OS X Ext. J in Disk Utlilty, then connecting to the new Mac and using Migration Assistant in the Utilites folder.
    Even faster, if you can determine your going to replace all the apps from fresh sources anyway (like if the older Mac's OS X verison is old thus the apps) then just use a external drive and copy just your files to it, then connect to the new Mac and transfer over.
    Some apps you can just grab the registration code and install it fresh on the new machine with the old code, talk to the developer about transfering the program, as long as it's deleted on the older Mac in the process.
    It used to be Firewire Target disk mode was fastest, but since Thunderbolt came out...
    Notice this support doc hasn't been updated since june 2012, no Thunderbolt info

  • What's the fastest way to kill the battery...

    hello friends. i was wondering what's the fastest way to drain my macbook pro battery so i can calibrate it? i want to kill the battery not the laptop if you know what i mean. thanks.

    Turn on wifi + bluetooth and turn the brightness all the way up, and if its a new mbp, turn off the automatic video card switching in energy saver. Then just play youtube videos / movies / games (anything that uses the vid card as much as possible helps) till it goes flat.

  • What's the fastest way to change IP addresses in a Project?

    Hi folks,
    I'm using a cFP2100 controller with LabVIEW 8.2.1.  I made a project using a configuration I created in MAX.  Now I've moved the whole bank of modules to a new location, and the controller now has a new IP address via DHCP.  My question is, what's the fastest way to update the IP address for my project?  Do I have to make a brand new project with a new .iak file that has the new IP address?  I'm thinking there's got to be an easier way.
    Thanks!
    Eric

    Hi Eric,
    Since you are getting your IP address from a DHCP server, the IP address of your Fieldpoint device is ultimately dependant on the server.  If your IP address changes, you have two choices.   You can right click your target and go to properties.  In the properties under the general category, you can change the IP address of the target.  The second option is to import a new IAK file into your project by right clicking the Project Name and going to import>>iak file. 
    I hope this helps,
    Regards,

  • What is the fastest way to detect on to off tag transition​s and then read 500 analog tags?

    what would be the fastest way to read 500 analog tags from the tag engine when a boolean tag transitions from on to off?? Right now I have a boolean indicator setup with the HMI wizard in a while loop with 20ms timer. The indicator feeds the boolean crossing ptbypt vi. When the output is true, I use one read multiple tags vi to get all 500 at once. I am reading data into the tag engine through an opc server and have around 2500+ tags. I need to read all of the data in less than 100ms. My plc logic is setup to zero out all of the 500 analog tags when the boolean indicator turns on again. Would I be better off using the trend tags vi to monitor the boolean indicator??

    Unclebump,
    You might try using read tag.vi

  • What is the best way to have multiple devices on the same account so we can still share the same library.  Right now I have 7 and I believe it's causing them to malfunction.

    I have multiple devices on the same itunes library and they all starting to have the same issues.  Not recognizing numbers previously stored, not sending/receiving tests.  Do I need to get everyone separate itunes accounts? 

    What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network? 
    One iTunes library per person.  One iTunes account per person.
    If people wish to share songs, they can make copies.
    When the inevitable day comes when the kids get older, you will not have to come back here and post asking how all that stuff can get separated!
