Why can't I add files to a book?

I have no idea why, but I suddenly cannot add files to a book in FM 9. I've always done it by dragging or using "Add" from the menu bar.
Now, I go through the same motions, but nothing gets added. Anyone ever experience this?

Huh. Turns out that because all the FM files that I was given to work with were backups, I couldn't build a book with them. So I renamed them (removed "backup") and now it's fine. I never knew backups couldn't be used.

  • Why can't I add files from my MacBook Pro to my external hard drive?

    I re-named my external hard drive on my PC, and now I cannot add files from my Mac to the hard drive. How can I add files again? Do I need to reformat my hard drive?

    Since you mention you used the external harddrive with your 'PC', I assume that it was NTFS formatted. By default Mac cannot write to NTFS only read it.
    To make sure: go to. Disk Utility (while the drive is mounted), select the drive and look at 'Format'. That should tell you the format type of the drive.
    If you are looking for third party solutions, try:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g
    http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/
    However, know that they are not supported by apple and won't be the best solution. The best cross platform solution would be to reformat the drive with exFat (you can do this through disk utility), just make sure you backup your data before doing this. Both Windows and Mac can write to exFat and it does not have file size limitations as Fat32.

  • Why can't I add text in the signature panel in firefox?

    why can't I add text in the signature panel in firefox?  I have adobe acrobat pro XI.  I can open a pdf in acrobat pro and am able to add text to a pdf, but when I open a pdf in firefox, the "add text" option is not available.

    When you install Acrobat XI you are also installing Reader for use in the browser. Reader is "sandboxed", or as it says in the Preferences, it is in "Protected Mode". Acrobat does not understand the concept of running in sandboxed memory (sandbox is a security feature to prevent the bad guy from exploiting a memory error and getting into a memory address where they can do damage to your computer) so to help protect Acrobat users the same way Reader users are protected we just install Reader along with Acrobat, but it is only used in the browser (part of this is because the bad guys use web sites as their primary method of distributing corrupted PDF files that can cause problems).
    That said, because you are in Reader the file needs to be Reader Enabled prior to being posted to the web site (or opened in the browser). Once the file is Reader Enabled you should be able to add the text annotations.

    For a transition to work, you need handles... basically, enough footage to overlap each other so that the transition can grab from both sides... your clip is merely 7 frames, way too short to be able to add a transition...
    I've used the "joining two pieces of fabric" analogy before, but I think it was too girly.. Perhaps another way to think about it, is to think of a "dovetail joint" used in wood working... the two pieces of wood need to grab onto each other in order to hold together...
    Anyhow, doing a quick search to perhaps better explain, I found this:

    Why can I not open files saved on a server?

    I think I figured it out.  I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine.  Whoop Whoop.  Thanks for your help.

  • Why can't I add HD videos to my iPod touch?

    So I recently bought an iPod touch, and I haven't had trouble with it until now. I downloaded a free TV show extra thing and it's in HD & SD, and it downloaded fine and everything. But when I tried to add it to my iPod, a popup comes up with the message: "Blah blah blah" was not copied to the iPod "Michaela's iPod" because it cannot be played on this iPod.
    Why? I tried to do the "Advanced Settings" and convert it, but the convert option is grayed out and I can't choose it. I thought the iPod touch could play HD (and I do have another HD video on it currently), so why can't I add this new HD/SD video to my iPod? And I know there's enough space because I have 24.6 GB free space.

    It's the screen format see below.
    The iPad and iPhone 4 can play High Definition (HD) content and Standard Definition (SD) content. iPods and the original iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3GS can play Standard Definition (SD) content. To find what video formats are supported, see the Tech Specs page, click your device's product family, and then your specific model. All HD purchases from the iTunes Store also include an iPod/iPhone-compatible Standard Definition version to accompany the HD version. When syncing an HD purchase from the iTunes Store, iTunes will automatically sync the SD video for devices that require SD content.

  • Why can't I add narration now ?

    I have added narration in the past on previous versions of Premiere elements and on Pre 10 but in the last 2 weeks I get an error when I click on the red record button I get a error message that my audio hardware selection does not have any input channels and I should go to Preferences, Audio Hardware to correct this.
    I go to Preferences Audio hardware and and it shows Premiere elements WDM Sound and next box has ASIO setting. I click on these and I see no other possibilities or choices.
    I still have Pre 8  loaded and the narration will not work now on it with the same error.
    What could cause this after narration has always worked in the past?

    Bill I believe I have answered your questions If not get
    back to me and I will try. I am a Snowbird in a motorhome traveling in AZ. And
    the internet comes and goes from time to time. And being a senior my computer
    skills leave me at a disadvantage. I really appreciate you trying to help me.
    Thank You

    also tried it in Windows Movie Maker and it works OK.

    Laptop internal (High definition Audio Device)
    I Have tried all 4 devices with the same results
    When in project and clicking on Audio, Add narration, the (Record

    mic the box lights up but no choices show.
    In Control Panel, device mgr I do not see the Logitech  h 150 listed
    Narration was working till about 2 weeks ago. I do not
    believe I have changed anything.
    A bout 3 days ago I uninstalled Premiere el 10 and Photoshop El 10 and reinstalled both, I thought that may help but no change

    Welcome to the forum. What is the make/model of your mic.? What is the connection type? What is the make/model of your sound card/chip? Do you have the latest driver for that sound card/chip installed? In a program, like Windows Recorder, does the mic. work fine? In Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager, does your mic. show up with no errors, or warnings? What is the ASIO setting now? Good luck, and please let us know a bit more. Hunt

    You need to be much more verbose about "can't".

    Make sure the right pane of tabs is visible. The menu command is just a jumper into the "keywording" tab.

    i can' t believe it but after 3 hours of reading everything i could find on this subject i discovered the answer on accident: IT'S THE CLOCK!!!!! I know that it sounds crazy but go to settings and go to date and time and set it to the automatic date and time, even if it's the wrong time. after i did that, everything worked perfectly! aldiko accepted my adobe id and imported my purchased book happily.  i hope it is that easy for everyone, best of luck.

  • Why can't I add bookmarks to Firefox 3.6.6? Nothing happens when I click "Bookmark This Page".

    Why can't I add bookmarks to Firefox 3.6.6? Nothing happens when I click "Bookmark This Page".

    Just for the record, I was having this problem with older versons of Firefox also. It just happened recently and, with the help of this forum (thanks cor-el) suggesting to open Firefox in safe mode and checking add ons, I found the problem. It was the recent update of Mcafee Site Advisor. If you have Mcafee Site Advisor as an add on, disable it and see if that helps. It worked for me.
    To disable this add on,
    Go to:
    Tools/Add ons/Extensions and click: "disable" for this add on and restart Firefox. Hope it works for you too.
    P.S. To uninstall Site Advisor altogether, you must do that through Windows Add/Remove Programs.

    Why can't I add a location to a photo in the new Photos app?  Apple appears to have taken away a feature without asking. 

    I have an iPhone and occasionally use it for photos, but my main camera is NOT an iPhone.  To be forced to go outside Apple for a product when Apple had perfectly good products available is ludicrous.  But it is what it is, apparently.

    What you did doesn't show the Media Browser. It just shows the folders where your media is stored. You may be correct that was all that cobacc wanted. 
    The Media Browser shows the actual media in thumbnails so that you can preview the media.
    However, neither requires any Sharing services to be enabled.
