Why am I unable to edit by Audio Time Units? I am pulling my hair out here.

I am attempting to do a little project and it is making me insane because even though Show Audio Time Units is checked, I am unable to do so. I can only edit by film frames. This seems like complete madness. I have never had this happen before and so I am unable to sync the sound. This is crucial since I shot with a super8 and need to fix the rubber lips.
Is there some crazy rare bug that can cause this? I'm all ears. CS5 Premiere Pro.
I have both an MPEG2 file at 29.97 (backup reference video shpot digitally) and a super8 transfer in 1080p at 29.97 (originally shot at 18fps and provided as a 29.97 fps AVI). Audio is a stereo wave file.
Previous projects like this were cake. So I'm going insane here.

Ive got the same problem, and i'm turning mad as well! PLEASE HELP! I want a smoother edit. Instead of sliding frame by frame. Thank you, so much!

    Why am I unable to edit messages in Mail App 7.0 on iMAC in Mavericks?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
    From the application's menu bar, select
    File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
    You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
    Boot in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
    Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.

  • Why am I unable to edit some Smart Mailboxes

    I have used Smart Mailboxes for some time but have found recently, when I wish to add a new criterion, that I am unable to edit some of them.
    The 'flap' simply fails to appear.
    Some newly created boxes can be edited and some can't.
    I am unable to find a difference between those I can edit & those I can't edit.
    I loaded the recent [Dec 22nd] update to Mail in the hope that that would solve the problem but it didn't.
    I would be very glad of help or advice.

    Mark,
    I'm not sure that what you are experiencing is necessarily a glitch otherwise one would assume that others would have made the same complaint. Having said that when you updated to 10.5.6 did you do that via Software Update or did you explicitly download either the Combo or Update?
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_6_ComboUpdate (668Mb)
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_6Update (372Mb)
    The reason I ask is that there have been some problems reported by users as a result of performing the update via Software Update and when they have subsequently downloaded the Combo and installed that, the problems have been overcome. I downloaded the Combo at the outset given that I had experienced minor software update problems on previous occasions so erred on the side of caution.
    If you choose to download one of the above then before installing you should repair disk permissions and then do a backup.
    You can provide feedback to apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    Cheers

  • Unable to edit an Audio Region (just want to change gain)

    Hello,
    In a particular audio region I am unable to change gain in that the "Change Gain" command (as well as all the other functions) are Grayed-out FOR THIS REGION. I am in Sample Editor>Functions>Change Gain.
    There are over 200 audio regions in this file. Most of them have NONE of the edit functions grayed-out.
    A few other regions have all the edit functions Grayed-out except for Change gain.
    Almost all of the audio regions are from apple loops. I have not edited any of the regions except for some regions ending points, and volume automation added.
    Why would this one particular audio region ("Country Night") by un-editable?
    (NONE of the tracks are locked.)
    please help

    Is it a file in .caf format? If so, note that compressed Audio formats can't be edited destructively. Convert to aiff/wav before.
    Btw, there is a Gain function in the Region Inspector since Logic 9, so there is no need to change the gain in the sample editor anymore.

  • Pulling Hair Out! Need Help: Adobe Prem 6.0 Distorted Audio playback in Timeline

    O/S = Windows 2000 Pro
    Adobe Premier 6.0
    I am in the process of compiling a project in Adobe Premier 6.0, where, up until yesterday, it was playing back perfectly in the Timeline window. Unfortunately now, when I  preview the project in the Timeline window, the audio has become distorted, out of sync, and is now 'slower' than the video footage (sounds a bit like a Darlek!), this also happens when I view a clip in the Monitor window. I closed this project down and started a new one, importing a seperate 'audio only' file, but had the same problem. I then opened a previous project that has always played back perfectly but that too had the same audio/video problem. I have checked the frame rate and the speed and both are correct and ok. Incidentely, the audio and video are in perfect sync when I play any clip in the Project Window!
    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can someone help me. I am pulling my hair out on this one!
    Thank you.

    John

  • Unable to edit iCloud Calendars. Why?

    I am unable to edit any of my Calendars from iCloud on my iPhone.  Is there a reason why it won't allow me to?

    Does anyone know how to resolve my question (first paragraph in original posting) regarding uneditable calendar items on iPhone (with regards to syncing through iCloud)?  Thanks.

  • Why can't I edit slide audio in my Captivate 5 presentation?

    I have reinstalled Captivate but it still hangs when I try to edit the audio in a presentation I am building.
    How can I fix this?

    This is usually due to issues with dual monitor setups.
    Try this experiment:  When Captivate hangs, hit the ESCAPE key on your keyboard.  If that restores functionality to Captivate, then you can be fairly certain that what you interpret as Captivate "hanging" is in fact just that the Slide Audio dialog is open somewhere off to the side of your visible screen area and you cannot get to it.

  • I am unable to edit an image in Photoshop.

    I just installed Lightroom 5.3, and I have Photoshop CS5.1 installed. The problem is that I am unable to edit an image in Photoshop. When I click Photo>Edit In, the option for Photoshop is not active (i.e., it's not black), so I can't click on it. Why are the options for Photoshop and all of the other Photoshop related options, such as Merge to Panorama, etc., not active? In Preferences I have the following settings: File Format = TIFF; Color Space = ProPhotoRGB; Bit Depth = 16 bits; Resolution = 240; Compression = None. I am using Windows 7.

    Chris:
    I have to apologize for being misleading on my request for help in
    resolving the problem.
    Actually the version I am using is CS2 not CS3.
    Yesterday I tried numerous times, and ways, to edit an image and each time
    it refused to allow me to save it.
    The software program just shut down. This evening when I decided to give it
    another try it worked perfect.
    Guess the program just took the day off.
    Thank you for offering to help

  • WebElements - Unable to edit WEPlatform

    Hi,
    I am new to WebElements and wanted to have a look at the functions to see how I can use in my reporting suite.
    I am using CR11 and seem to be unable to edit the WEPlatform element to select the Crystal Reports version that I use.
    I notice when I open the WebElements 246.rpt that it advises me that the report was written in a later version of Crystal.
    Is this why I cannot edit the WEPlatform element ? If so how can I obtain a version of the web elements thjat will work with my Crystal version ?
    Any help will be great.
    Cheers,
    Matt

    hi Matt,
    the users guide isn't really clear on this...i will make sure that this gets changed for the next release.
    as webelements are Custom Functions you have to disconnect them from your repository to edit them. if you right click on the platform function and choose disconnect from repository then you can edit the function to match your platform.
    once you've changed the function, you can add it back into your repository overwriting the existing one...that way when you  build a new report using webelements you don't have to keep changing the platform function each time.

  • I am new to Final Cut Express and don't understand why I am unable to drag transitions into Canvas? Something wrong in my setup? It's not the overlays they are "on" so can anyone advise me please?

    I am new to Final Cut Express and don't understand why I am unable to drag transitions into Canvas? Something wrong in my setup? It's not the overlays they are "on" so can anyone advise me please, by the way the "L" doesn't appear in the bottom left hand corner either? and by the way how can I get rid of that irritating Blue badge saying "AutoFill your contact details" all mine are in "address book" already!

    You can't drag a transition into the canvas. If you're dragginmg a transition from the effects tab you drag it between the edit point of two clips in the timeline.
    Make sure show edit overlays is turned on in the Canvas view popup.

  • Unable to edit page source in CS3

    For some reason I am unable to edit page source in an
    external application in CS3. I can't figure out why I used to be
    able to, and now i can't. please advise

    If you want to open the source code in an editor of your choice you can change two hidden settings.
    Type '''about:config''' into the location bar. Accept the warning message that pops up, this brings up a lot of settings. You then need to change 2 of the settings that appear, for details on the 2 settings see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/View_source.editor.external view_source.editor.external] and [http://kb.mozillazine.org/View_source.editor.path View_source.editor.path]
    You can also change those 2 settings by using an add-on such as [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/394/ Dafizilla ViewSourceWith]

  • Unable to edit birthday field in Address book

    I am unable to edit a card in address book properly. If I try to enter a birthday in the birthday field by either May 2, 1972 or 05/02/1975 no input of any kind sticks. 
    Can anyone tell me why and how to fix this problem?

    There is something really weird going on. 
    If I start a blank test card and I type (all end in return):
    December 1 1973, the field goes blank
    If I type December 1 (return), the field changes to 1 December.  Then, if I put my cursor in, I can go back and add 1973, but not with the orignal December 1.
    I CAN write 1 December 1973, but not December 1 1973.
    This is bizarre.  It worked just fine before Lion. 
    In Canada (which is my chosen country and language on my keyboard when I set up my user) we say Month/Day/Year.  In Quebec I believe they would write 1 December 1973, but in Ontario we would write December 1, 1973.
    This is no longer intuitive and a huge time waster!
