Why can't I point the Video Importer to a specific USB drive directory

When I (am force) to use the Video Importer (because my clips are on a USB drive) it seems to find and select all videos on this USB drive. This is not what I want. I want to browse to the directory (on the USB drive) that I created. It contains the 6 video clips I want to import, not all 300 on the drive.
How to I select a specific directory on the USB drive using Video Importer
I'm using Premiere 12.

You will find best advice over on the video forum. Most of us here are photographers.

I have a 3g ipod touch and bought a TV adaptor so as to view the iTunes festival on my TV - Why can I not get the video ? all I get is sound - any thoughts ?

I bought a TV adaptor and docking pod for my iPod touch 3g so as to watch the iTunes festival as my pc will not stream properly. I cannot however get the video all I get is the sound -Any Thoughts would be welcomed.

Hi,
I have the Apple MB128ZA/B Adaptor and the Apple Universal Dock.
My settings read TV SIgnal - PAL
With other videos already on my iPod the video and sound works so I assumed that the iTunes festival stream was probably not compatible but if I am wrong I would be pleased to know.

Why can't I move the icons around on my iMac hard drive? They just pop back in place when I release the mouse.

Why can't I move folders around on my iMac hard drive? They just pop right back in place. I've selected Sort By None. This just started happening this morning so I must have done something! Any help?

This is a shot in the dark, but try this:
log-in to your iCloud account with your Apple ID
change your password
ensure your billing information is up-to-date
attempt to re-enable your Keychain (again)

Why can't I see the video icon in phone booth now that I upgraded to lion

I upgraded my mac to Lion and can no longer make videos in phonebooth only the camera icon is available.

There is no rotate icon in the Photos App. I don't have one on the iPad original and I'm running iOS 4.3.3. There will be in iOS 5 I think but it is not an available feature currently. There are third party apps that let you rotate, crop and edit but not the Photos App.

I uploaded two videos to YouTube. They are not visible in AppleTV, even though all my other YouTube videos are there. Why can't I see the videos I uploaded?

i can't see my uploaded youtube videos

Have they gone live, check the account and also that they are set to public. Also, if there are copyright issues.
If you have an IOS device check to see if they are visible there

Why can I not upload any video's?

So I just bought your Adobe Photoshop and premiere elements.
I own a Panasonic Lumix camera that takes pictures and video
I can upload the cideos from this camera to windows movie maker, but when I try to upload it to premiere all I get is an audio file
Why can I not use the video with this program

save
Nothing to be confused about. We put the details together and find the solution. Specifically....
1. What version of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system are they running? For now I will assume versions 12 on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit. But those are important details to start with.
2. You say that your video is from a Panasonic Lumix camera...which model and what are your camera settings?
We should be about to know what your source media are from that although a properties readout from programs such as MediaInfo or gspot would be useful.
http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
But to expedite matters, let us see what we can do from just knowing the brand/model/camera settings. Please include the file extension of this problem file?
3. Once we have the information above, then we need to make sure that the project preset that you are using for Premiere Elements matches the properties of those source media. But, all we need to know, may be in your full answer to "2".
Let us start here. We can go at whatever pace you want for getting to the core of this issue.

Why can't we see the details of a picture or video taken with our iphone or Ipad? Detail like when it was taken the picture or when the movie was filmed. I think that this very very important for our memories.

Yes, I know that, but it was easier to see it on the Iphone self, like the other company phones. The name of the picture taken should be the date when it was taken.

I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library?

I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library? I assumed that like the videos in iPhoto, I would be able to access the videos in Aperture through iMovie. Come on Apple! I am starting to get frustrated with your products here. And this is saying a lot when I have been using and loving apple products for the last 4 years.

Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.
APPLE. What are you doing?

Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with? They can hear me.

Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with? They can hear me...

Hi,
There can be several reasons.
1) They have their Mic Off.
In iChat > Video Menu the Microphone Enabled (or Audio Chat Enabled in Lion) needs to be ticked.
2) the System Preferences > Sound > Input tab Volume is not high enough ?
Slide it to the right (their end)
2a) the Mic selected here is not the one select in iChat > Preferences > Video section > Microphone drop down.
3) there is an issue with the speed differences in the internet services you both have.
If they are fast and sending lots of data and your end cannot buffer fast enough frame get dropped to smooth out video. There comes a point when the audio can no longer keep in sync and is dropped as well.
In iChat menu > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth Limit set 500kbps at both ends
This also smooths out ISP variances.
4) after that it tends to be combos of things such as Processors involved, the Speed of those Processors and the speed or bandwidth available to the computers involved.

How can I, or can I export my songs on my iPod back to my computer?
The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

Why can I not adjust the volume on a video when accessed from the lock screen

Why can I not adjust the volume of a video in my pictures folder, when accessed from the new lock screen option?

There is no way to access videos directly from the lock screen.
What exactly is being attempted here?

Why can't Adobe add the feature of viewing focus points? This is an obvious, common sense feature that Adobe Engineers must understrand how to do, No?

Why can't Adobe add the feature of viewing focus points? This is an obvious, common sense feature that Adobe Engineers must understrand how to do, No?
I've seen this requested in several past Lightroom versions.
Is Adobe not addressing this basic feature for a reason?, I mean, even Aperture has this feature, it can't be that hard to add? Can it?
Maybe Adobe isn't reading the feature request?

Honestly, I am hardly qualified to even guess - there are tons of bugs reported that would be easy to fix, but aren't, features that would be useful and easy enough to implement, but aren't. Things like focus points which seem like a no brainer but are never implemented - your guess is as good as mine..
But to be clear: focus points are different for different cameras, and are stored in proprietary metadata. - not impossible to get at, obviously, but requires some programming/maintenance..
Worth noting: Apple is shutting down their Aperture business. Yeah, they support focus points and all kinds of good stuff, but I guess Aperture isn't a real money-maker for them (lotsa maintenance work, but not a lot of revenue) - relatively small market.
Adobe has been working on Revel, and Lightroom Mobile.., instead of focus points (and bug fixes, and...) - my guess: that's where the money is, or where they think it is.

Why can't I edit the photos I just imported from a usb flash drive?

Why Can't I edit the photos I just imported from a usb flash drive? I scanned them into a desktop pc, copied them onto a flash drive, imported them into iphoto. Once I remove the flash drive I'm unable to edit them. Says it can't find the original...or something like that. I appreciate any help you can give me! Trying to get a slide show ready for a funeral, therefore I have an approaching deadline, eek!

Copy the photos from the drive to your desktop import then again and delete the images. If the same mistake appears, there is something wrong with your import settings into iPhoto - > may be you didn't imported the original files to your iphoto library.

Why can't I CHOOSE the channels I receive?

My parents pay far less for DISH and get more channels. The only reason I keep AT&T is because I need reliable internet. I'm frustrated with a lot of channels with NOTHING to watch. This is compounded by the fact that I get multiple Spanish language channels (not just local broadcast) and I don't speak Spanish and I get multiple sports channels and I don't watch sports--well I will watch the Olympics. I also don't watch cartoons and there's lots of those available to me. Most of my TV watching is local broadcast or PBS. I'd love to get BBC or WGN without paying extra. I would gladly drop all the Spanish, sports and cartoons to get some intelligent adult TV that's in a language I speak, that doesn't include men bashing each other's skulls and doesn't make me lose IQ points. Why can't we choose the type of service we want instead of just getting one the choices we can afford from AT&T's cookie cutter products?

What you are describing is called "a la carte service" and has been debated for years if not decades. The main reason you can't pick and choose channels has to do with how the channels themselves make money. For the most part, each one cuts a deal with each TV service (e.g. Xfinity, DirecTV, U-Verse, Dish, Time Warner Cable) where the service pays the channel a certain amount for each household capable of viewing it (usually less than 50 cents, but ESPN charges something like $5). Note two important factors here: (a) it is the TV services that are paying the channels, and not the other way around; (b) it is based on how many people can view a channel, and not how many people actually do. With "packages," a lot of channels that very few people would watch are grouped together with the more popular channels, and the additional cost of carrying these channels is offset somewhat by the fact that the channels do not have to charge as much as they otherwise would because of the number of households that can watch the channel, most of which never will. If you changed this, and made everything a la carte, then most channels - including the popular ones - would have to charge more in order for you to view them. Want BBC America? $3/month, thank you very much. That $5/month for ESPN? More like $10. Also remember that the service itself has to add to these costs so it can pay for providing the service (e.g. buying and sending out the cable boxes).
