Where oh where have my projects gone?

I am new to FCPX.  Started with a few projects to test it out, imported footage from external hard drives... Started working.  The next thing I knew I was putting together a video for work and after ejecting my hard drive and taking it with me... FCPX is a blank canvas again.  It's like I'm launching it for the first time. 
I never purposefully set up capture scratch or project file save locations, but just started editing. I ejected the drives and now nada.
I can't seem to find any of my workflow, the sequences or anything.  It prompted me to reimport media which I did on a few pieces of content thinking it might reconnect my project files, but alas... it did not work out.
Any help reconnecting would be much appreciated. 

I guess that's just it... I just opened FCP and all my projects were gone. 
I had no problems opening/closing/opening when the portable drive was connected.  The issue came when I ejected the drive to take ot the office... when I came back, plugged it back in and opened FCPX, all the media was gone, the projects, events were not there. 
It was like opening FCPX for the first time.  Thanks it... I'm used to working with FCP7 so I can't say I'm really 'versed' in the file architecture on this software.  I'm really confused about how simple it claims to be but yet this seems like the most 'simple issue that should not go this terribly wrong.
I had at least 4 sequences totally done... all my editing, transitions, music, audio in/out/fade... all gone. 
Do you know how I can reimport the project files to match up with the media which I have?

  • Where have the charts gone in iTunes 11?

    In genereal I like iTunes 11 but I can't find any top 10 charts for music, movies, TV shows apps or books! Where have the charts gone?

    Thanks Poikkeus but I still can't find it! I assume you're referring to the music pulldown menu? There's no Charts selection in there. Maybe it's different for iTunes Australia?

  • Where have open file gone?

    Hello!
    I've upgraded from SQL Developer version 1.1 to 1.5 yesterday.
    I wonder where the 'open file' menu entry in the context menu of a sql worksheet has gone. Currently I have to choose a database connection separately after the file is loaded.
    Second question: Scripts which call subscripts themselves like 'start anotherscript.sql' don't work anymore. Such a call ends up in an error message saying 'Unable to open file...' It seems to me that SQL Developer doesn't search for the subscript in the directory of the main script anymore. Do I have to use absolute paths now if I want to work with version 1.5???
    Kind regards

    This is a TERRIBLE design, I'm rolling back to 1.2. If I open a script that runs other scripts in the same directory, I cannont keep setting my preferences script directory over and over each time I go somewhere else on my hard drive.

  • Where have Site Profles gone

    I have MX and I am stunned that all my defined sites have
    gone from the right side panel.
    Are they normally stored in a separate data file ? If so what
    would it be and where would it be.
    If not, what could be the cause of this?
    Thanks

    guessing windows OS?
    dreamweaver stores the site definitions in the Registry file.
    If the registry file is "flaky" or if the box is unplugged
    before updates to
    the Registry file are done, the site definiton info can be
    wiped.
    there's a third party tool for windows that will let you make
    back up files
    of the site defintions.
    http://mm-exporter.joexx.de/
    you can also use the Export button in the define sites dialog
    box to create
    .ste files
    If only the site definitions where lost- no site files were
    lost. no actual
    site assets. Define the sites again, then back up the site
    definitions, and
    go on.

  • I must be stupid... Where have my playlists gone?

    Touch 2G... I went to a lot of trouble to create my playlists. They synched okay when loading the Touch. But now, when I touch Playlists, all I see is Genius and On-The-Go. Where is all my music? I can access it through the alphabetical lists of Artists, Songs and Albums, but my Playlists are nowhere.
    What am I missing?

    Ah! Okay. The Touch must have been recently synched to show the Playlists. That's very different to regular iPods I have owned when the playlist list is always available.
    Now I have another problem: it's regarding permanent extreme loudness. That's for another thread I think.

  • Ignorant question: Where have my photos gone?

    Apologies if you think this has been covered previously but similar queries haven't answered my ignorant but basic question. I can't find where my photos are saved to in iPhoto 08 - in 06, the file structure is 1) visible to me and 2) arranged chronologically. Please put me out of my misery and tell me where I can find the files!
    Cheers,
    Bobber

    With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    Want to visit with them? Find the Library icon in the Pictures Folder and right click on it. From the resulting menu select ‘Show Package Contents’. A Finder Window will open with the Library Exposed. It will look familiar.
    Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 Only*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and 10.5* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    All of the above are a: Faster and b: Safer that rooting through the folders of the iPhoto Library.

  • HT1277 Hi, any help will be appreciated. I use AOL for my email. I have probably getting on for 300 addresses but only 50 or so appear on my Ipad email facility......where have the others gone??

    Hi, any help will be appreciated. i use AOL for my email where I have about 300 addresses shown but when I use the 'mail' function on my Ipad only a small percentage of those addresses appear..why is that and how can I get my full address book loaded?

  • Where have my fonts gone?!

    I'm using keynote '07 but since installing Leopard something weird seems to have happened to my fonts. I'm sure that you usually have access to all the fonts (and so can change text on a slide to any font, regardless of the theme, right?) but now when i open the fonts pane there's only 3 or 4 fonts there. All the fonts are still in my main fontbook, so what do I need to do in order to get Keynote to recognise them?

    I tried using the Font Book - "Remove Duplicates" and made sure there are no more duplicate fonts installed. It DOES NOT appear to have fixed the font problem (the number of versions of the same class presentation are proliferating as I try to fix this before tomorrow).
    Additionally, the Font Book Duplicates fix DID NOT fix Keynote from crashing. The only thing that seems to be working is what another poster wrote on another thread - I am changing each and every font manually from Helvetica or Arial back to Gil Sans, Garamond or Futura - and that seems to be working so far (other than the 4 hours I've spent on getting slides back to where they were in July....)

  • 945P Neo - Where have my IDEs gone ????

    Hi all
    Have just bought a 945P Neo which I was really pleased about but when I set about installing the bits and pieces, I noticed that it only has 1 IDE connector ??
    The space where IDE 2 and 3 should be are vacant as are the 2 chips just above them.
    Can anyone explain why this is the case ? Have I somehow bought a scaled down or 'demo' version or something.  It's most unusual just to have the one IDE connector and as you can imagine I am now stuck for somewhere to connect my second DVD Rom drive.
    Can the IDE 2 and 3 ports be added easily and failing that, what is the maximum number of devices that can be connected to just the IDE 1 connector ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Dallasourora and others,
    I am finding this problem to be more and more insidious.
    It was bad enough that the box says PLATINUM and we didnt get our IDE ports, but it also says that it supports SATA RAID. I have now found out for sure that it does not!
    The ICH7 Chip does not support RAID! Additionally it does not appear to support NCQ either. 
    It takes the ICH7R to get the raid function.
    I have spent hours and hours trying to install a RAID only to find this motherboard does not support it.
    This appears to be one of the worst motherboard purchases I have ever made. The advertising ploy that MSI is using here would be like putting a 12" monochrome monitor in a box labeled 42" Plasma display. I am appalled.
    I have written to MSI, but I am not holding my breath for a resolution. Looks like I'm out a few hundred bucks for nothing.
    I see we are not the only ones puzzled by the labeling on the box.
    Quote from: dadrabbit on 05-June-06, 21:05:45
    ow...your box says "945P Neo Platinum"??
    if it says then you got a platinum...i really don't know why "Neo" is written on the box since in MSI website the name for this MB is only "945P Platinum"

  • Blue Screen of Death - where have my credits gone?

    Hopefully someone can help!
    Recently I had to rebuild my entire hard drive after the "blue screen of death" forced my hand! I have reloaded i-tunes and can see under previous purchases all the tunes/films I downloaded - my queries are - how do I get these items back onto my rebuilt hard drive? And, I'm sure I had some credits left on my account - but since the rebuild, no credits are appearing. How do I go about getting all my old downloads back and how do I find where my birthday/xmas vouchers ended up?

    If you replaced your screen (or had an unauthorized 3rd party replace it), then sell if for $40.00.  Apple will not issue an out of warranty replacement that has been opened by a non authorized repair center.

  • CRIO Poor Performance - Where have my MIPS gone?

    I have a cRIO based system that is used to control a motor for a particular application. The application has been developed and enhanced over the years and is currently using about 50% of the CPU. The RT Controller is a cRIO-9012. I have recently been asked to add a 1 kHz (or more) loop function to the cRIO application. I can only achieve a maximum loop rate of about 200 Hz. When I told the customer this, he asked how fast my controller was, to which I replied 400 MHz. “Where is all the CPU power going?”, he asked. He's now thinking of replacing the cRIO Controller with an mbed with C code to get the performance he requires, which is a pity since I'd like to continue developing the application in LabVIEW.
    Following on from his question, “where is all the CPU power going?”, I decided to write a simple application to test the cRIO 9012's performance. Below is the code I used to perform the evaluation:
    With just the bottom loop running, which reports CPU load over the cRIO Controller's serial port, I have a CPU load of 7.0%. This is the baseline.
    I then add the "execution" loops as shown above the bottom loop, one at a time and recoded the CPU load. Here are the results:
    1 Loops - 18.3% load (11.3% extra)
    2 Loops - 29.4% load
    3 Loops - 45.5% load
    4 Loops - will not run!
    I have two problems/concerns.
    Concern 1
    The cRIO 9012 has a 400 MHz processor, which has 760 MIPS of processing power. The rate of the simple loop is 2 kHz and each loop takes about 11% of the CPU power. That is, each loop uses up 83.6 MIPS and each loop iteration uses up 41,800 instruction cycles. Where are the 41,800 instructions going? Even if there was a context switch after each loop iteration, this would account for 150 to 200 instruction cycles. Each loop is only doing an integer increment, timing check, compare and branch. These should only take up about 4 instruction cycles (8 if you want to be generous). If this was programmed in C, you could get bare metal performance that allows a single loop rate of something like 40 MHz or with an RTOS something like 2 MHz. Instead, my maximum loop rate is something like 20 kHz.
    Where are the "wasted" 41,600 instructions per loop iteration going? This is only 0.5% efficient!
    Concern 2
    Why does adding the 4th "execution" loop cause the application to halt (or at least not send data over the serial port)?
    I like programming on the desktop using LabVIEW and I like programming the FPGA using LabVIEW. The RT Controller is however becoming an embarrassment. Is it really the case that the best additional loop rate I can add to an existing application that already uses 50% of the cRIO Controller's CPU can only be 200 Hz maximum?

    Thanks for all the feedback.
    MajorTom,
    Changing to timed loops instead of while loops makes the performance worse. For 2 Loops, rather than a CPU load figure of 29.4% (22.4% after removing base load) it shoots up to 78.4% (71.4% after removing base load). That is, it runs about 3 times slower, which takes the "efficiency" down from 0.5% to 0.15% efficient.
    TimothyA,
    I tried making the "execution" loops subVIs (with Preferred Execution System = other 1, with the top level = other 2) and that solved the four "execution" loops problem. Thanks, one of my concerns is now resolved (I'll mark it as such once the conversation quietens down).
    The execution time is still large with the 2 loops taking 29.1% of the CPU, which is the same as before.
    I tried using the "reduced" us wait next multiple CLN.vi, but it appears to be in LabVIEW 2014 and I'm using LabVIEW 2013. Any chance of resaving it as LabVIEW 2013?
    crossrulz,
    Thank you for pointing me to the table in the CompactRIO Developer's Guide. I assume you’re talking about Figure 3.5. Priorities and Execution Systems available in LabVIEW Real-Time. I didn't realise that Execution Systems are limited in the number threads (would be nice to get a warning when this happens). This will make interesting reading and experimentation.
    All,
    I’ve tried various loop limiting rates including Timed Loops and While Loops with RT Wait Until Next Multiple, RT Wait, Wait Until Next Multiple and Wait and the best perform is from the two RT waits. The worst performance was from the Timed Loops.
    In summary, I’ve solved the problem regarding how to run more parallel loops, but I still get very poor performance with each loop interaction taking about 41,800 instructions when it “should” take more about 200 instruction cycles. All I want is to be able to run a loop at at least 1 kHz on my cRIO-9012 when I already have an application that takes up about 50% of the CPU. I have the threat of the code being moved to an mbed using C, which I’m trying to resist. Surely a 400 MHz controller can have a 1 kHz loop and not take up more than 10% of the CPU.

  • Where have my photos gone?

    I recently had a problem with Aperture resulting in me having to uninstall/reinstall it. All projects in the last 18 months and photos have been deleted! Previously, it was not syncing with Iphoto, so the photos weren't there. Now it has synced but is not showing these photos. These events are still on my Ipad, which I am now reluctant to sync with my Imac, as I am converned that they will disappear also. Any ideas how I can sort this mess out?

    You do not mention, what kind of trouble shooting measures you already have done after reinstalling Aperture?
    Just to be sure, have you checked the filters in Browser and Library inspector, if you are really showing all library items? The filters should be displaying "All items" or "Showing All". And did Aperture open your current library, and not create a new, empty one?
    And have you repaired and rebuild the library after reinstalling Aperture? If not, try the First Aid Tools, see:
    Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
    Previously, it was not syncing with Iphoto, so the photos weren't there. Now it has synced but is not showing these photos.
    What do you mean? iPhoto on iPad or iPhoto in iLife on Mac? Have you migrated your Library from iPhoto? And how are you syncing? With iTunes or Wi-Fi? Please explain in more detail.
    The filters to check:

    Ohh where oh where can they be????,
    I am using a dolphin browser on my Iphone4, and whenever I google search an image, and click on it to "Save Image" (which is the only option that or "Cancel" ) the phone gives it a sequencal jpg. file name.. irrespective of whether or not I change the file name. I can not find the photo.. Its very frustrating.. Soo I figure they will be there when I die, right next to the pile of unmatched sox and spoons!!.. Where the heck to all the spoons go anywhere??

  • Where have the movies gone from uk store?

    Since upgrading to iTunes 7, I can't see where to buy the movie shorts anymore, the option just isn't there.
    The couple of pixar shorts I bought before the upgrade still work fine and are listed in my movies, but it seems you can't buy them anymore?

    Please double-check if you turned iTunes Match on in error. Did you recently sync your device with iTunes? Did you change or use a different Apple ID? Did you  connect your device to another computer? Etc, etc...
    In any case, you can re-download all your purchases for free. Just sign in to iTunes Store with the proper Apple ID and select the Purchases tab.

  • Where have the widgets gone??

    OK, I know this is probably not the correct forum for this but I couldn't actually find one so here it is. I used to be able to browse straight to the downloads section of the Apple website to where all the demos, freeware, and widgets live, but lately I just cannot for the life of me find any of that section of the website. I can find support downloads, updates and the like, but not freeware and widgets etc.
    Could someone please point me in the right direction? From http://www.apple.com/uk/ where do I go?
    Thanks muchly!

    HI,
    At your Apple home page look on the right side of the window for this:
