Why does an iPhone 6  60p clip need rate conversion?

When I take clips with an iPhone 6+, they are supposedly taken in 60p (if enabled in "Settings"). When I import such a clip to FCP, it is reported as 60i. I also see this with every other high-res clips, such as the ones taken from a Sony RX-100: They show as 50i, but are 50p.
(Sorry, the labels are in German.)
I manually set the field dominance to "progressive", because that's what it is.
You may notice the strange dimension: iOS 8.0 had a bug that sometimes locked the direction sensor. This particular clip was shot with the bug active. The phone was held horizontally, but the clip is marked as having been recorded vertically.
The project (timeline) is 60p:
Now comes the tricky part: Every clip from the iPhone requires a rate conversion:
Why is this the case? Both clip and timeline are 60fps.
The same does not happen with a 50p timeline and 50"i" material from the Sony RX100.

I have a Verizon Wireless phone so there is no SIM card. I did call apple and they had me restore it in DFU mode. It still pops up as activation required at least once a day.

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep cutting out in conversation after 2-3 minutes

    why does my iphone 4 cut out when calling someone after 2-3 miutes

    Sounds like something got corrupted during your upgrade.
    I would restore from a last known good backup if I were you.
    If that doesn't work I would set the phone up as new and re-install all of your apps and re-sync your music again.

  • HT1414 why does my iPhone 5s shut down unpredictably and needs to be reset every time to start back up?

    why does my iPhone 5s shut down unpredictably and needs to be reset every time to start back up?

    Hi Cyprus11,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is shutting down unexpectedly, I recommend going through these troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Best,
    Jeremy

  • Why doesn't iPhone store audio clips that you download from say whatapp like it does with photos and videos?

    Why doesn't iPhone store audio clips that you download from say whatapp like it does with pictures and video?

    Because you can't add content, to any iPhone, that way. Done by design.

  • Why does my iphone need wifi to update

    Why does my iphone need wifi to download and install new software update!?
    While other iphones can do that with their cellular internet

    This is your phone's operating temp range:
    Operating ambient temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
    You exceed that range & you'll get that warning...you do nothing, & your phone will shut down to prevent damage. Easy to exceed that range while your phone is navigating & exposed to sun or another heat source.
    It is what it is.

  • Why does my iPhone 5 take very grainy flash photographs in the dark will a hard reboot be safe to do to try to fix or is it a hardware issue?

    Why does my iPhone 5 take very grainy flash photographs in the dark will a hard reboot be safe to do to try to fix or is it a hardware issue?
    And By hard boot I mean holding the home and power button down at the same time for 10 seconds or whatever
    I see other people have these grainy flash photographs if you try to take a picture in darkness the picture comes out very dark and grainy I thought the software would ultimately fix this but it's been going on for over a year I usually take my photographs in daylight but I need this to be fixed
    If it is a hardware issue I hope Apple will replace my iPhone 5 because I was just waiting for one of the iOS updates to fix it I bought my phone in November 2012 its the iPhone 5
    Please help or advise if you can was this just a software or hardware issue I know Apple was aware of it but I was advised that iOS update would fix it but obviously not
    Is it safe to do a hard boot on my iPhone five by holding the power and home button at the same time for 10 or 20 seconds I saw someone said that fixed there's at least temporarily
    I'm typing this on my iPhone five right now why do the words go off to the left and right no matter if I hold the phone vertical or horizontal the words bleed off to left right so for me to proofread it I have to move my text left to right to proof read it
    Thank you

    The flash on a smartphone camera is tiny. It only lights up a very small area right in front of the camera. It won't light up the whole scene.
    Have you seen the size of the flash on a professional camera? Even they can't light a whole scene in the dark.
    Fact is, a smartphone camera is not capable of taking good photos in the dark, even with the flash.
    You'll need to buy and learn how to use a professional, dedicated SLR camera to be able to take good photos in the dark. It is not easy.

  • TS1702 why does my iphone 5s not display apps to my jvc car stereo, when the same apps work with my 4s?

    why does my iphone 5s not displaying apps on my jvc car stereo.  these apps worked with my iphone 4s?

    Blackberries were designed at a time when cellular data was very expensive. They don't do nearly as much as an iPhone, in part, to conserve data use. All modern smartphones will use more data than a Blackberry unless you do almost nothing.
    You do not need to quite apps. Almost no apps run in the background.
    Here are Apple's tips on iPhone battery use:
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
    If you are really only getting an hour of battery usage and not just engaging in hyperbole (), you should make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.

  • HT4993 Why does my iphone say activation error

    Why does my iphone say activation error

    Because you are running an unauthorized version of the beat software for iOS 7. Or you are a legitimate developer and there is an issue with your last update. You will need to go to the developers section to fix it if that is the case.
    If you are not a developer contact the developer who got the beta for you.

  • Why does my iphone 4 take soooo long to stream video?

    Why does my iphone 4 take soooo long to stream a video???  I will have an iphone 3GS next to it, and we will play a youtube video at the same time, and the 3GS goes significantly faster.  Any advice??

    Bad cable? Bad USB port? Something corrupt in the album itself?

  • Why does my iphone 3gs shut down when battery gets to 80%?  have installed new battery and nothing changes?

    Why does my iphone 3gs shut down when battery shows 80%.  a couple of months ago is shut down at 60% but has continually gotten worse.  this was before 5.0.  i took it to a repair man and he tried a used battery, a new battery, and the original battery.  nothing helped.  5.01 didnt help either.  What is my problem?

    Fully discharge the battery (till it shuts down and won't turn on) and then fully recharge it (100%).  This will recalibrate the battery meter.  You may need to do this a few times.

  • Why does my iPhone ring when my iPad receives a text

    Why does my iPhone receive the same texts as me iPad

    Because they share the same iMessage account and the same "deliver to" address(s).  You can edit the receive addresses to be unique, but then people will need to know which one to send to to get the right device.  The whole point of iMessage is that your messages can be received on any iOS (or now OS X 10.8) machine that you set up with the same iMessage account and receive aliases.
    You can also set up the devices with completely different iMessage accounts, by using different AppleIDs to create the accounts.

  • Why does my Iphone says software update unavailable??

    Why does my Iphone says software update unavailable??

    I have a 5 and got the message that the "software update is not available at this time. Try again later". Everyone is jamming the server trying to update at the same time. I'll try later this evening. Scary about the problem people are having after the update. They are saying their phones need to be re-activated. My IPhone is my only phone. Good luck everyone!

  • Why does my iphone 5 have no service

    why does my iphone 5 have no serivce?
    im with orange/tmobile which is EE but i have had no service all this morning. just wondering if someone could help

    You may need to contact your carrier. I recently upgraded and the new phone activated automatically and the old one deactivated very soon after I turned on the new phone. May be different with different carriers.

  • With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?

    With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?
    I usually go to bed after my wife. I have the Do Not Disturb set for 11 pm to 7 am, and I can see the moon symbol.
    So why when I go to bed at midnight and plug in my iPhone to recharge do I get a LOUD BEEP?
    My wife is banning my phone from being next to my bed and an alarm clock.
    To me it seems that the "Do Not Disturb" should turn this beep into a vibrate.

    section2i:
    If that is true, then you should file that as a bug using the link above:
    If I am reading what you are saying correctly, you are saying that when vibrate is 'off', and you turn on the phone and plug it in that a vibration occurs, and that it is not respecting the vibrate 'off'.
    That would be a slightly different issue from what I am asking about (Do Not Disturb), and would probably need a separate bug report.
