Why won't P2 files import into fcpx 10.3

I used the same workflow in fcp7 and X. DVCProHD capture on P2 cards, then imported as camera. Suddenly since upgrading to the newes fcpx I get an "import failed" message, and fcpx will only work from the camera files - no import. I tried new events, new project and event, import from archive, import from original card. No go.Nothing in my workflow has changed except the "upgrade." Has anyone else experienced this?

  • Why won't new files import into LR 3.6?

    So, there are a couple of new .TIFs that I want to import into an existing LR folder.  Under Import the window shows both of those new files, each checked, as the only ones not already in the LR library.  So I click on import and one of three things happens:  (1) they immediately import, (2) the window goes blank forever except for a message that there's nothing to import, (3) the window goes blank forever with a message "Import in progress...".  This is infuriating, expecially since there appears to be no way to escape from this infinite import loop. Note:  the newly named files open perfectly in PhotoShop when it is invoked outside of LR.  What is LR seeing that PS is not seeing, and how do I correct this bug? Or at least make an orderly retreat from the infinite loop?

  • Why won't my mpeg import into imovie?

    Hi,
    Just got a new macbookpro 17inch. Liking it but having to learn the switch to mac. I have an mpeg file i want to try to resize, but imovie doesn't seem to recognize it at all. I thought macs were supposed to be the computers where everything just worked. Why won't it let me take this in? I thought mpegs were fairly common and quicktime has no problem opening it. Am I using the wrong program? Do I need to go back onto my ancient Toshiba and use Windows Movie Maker just to resize a video?

    I wonder why apple didn't just make it so that imovie could read those files. If windows movie maker can than it must be possible to do. Wouldn't they have anticipated that someone might take video on a hand held camera and then want to edit that video in some way? Is there some reason or advantage of them having made it this way instead of not just making the program do everything that someone might want to do?
    There is a problem regarding the difference in technologies. QT Is Apple's proprietary multimedia software system. It is modeled on magnetic film strips and/or video tape which employ separate audio and video heads/tracks for playback. MPEG-1 files, on the other hand, contain a single stream of data which is composed of interspersed blocks of audio and video data. Thus, the different technologies require different "engines" to work properly. Since Apple only supports its own technology base as it applies to rigid standards, anything outside this scope is not supported. For instance, QT is very particular when it comes to files being properly terminated and proper time coded while muxed formats like MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VOB, Flash, etc. files are notorious for having broken time codes since these files rely on the physical interspersing of data blocks. Windows files are also very rely on FourCC codes/extension for proper playback while QT files frequently rely on the specific data instead for proper playback. In addition, files like MPEG-2 are edited at the GOP (group of pictures) level which normally consist of a repeated cycle of I-, P-, and B-frame types (e.g., IBBPBBPBBPBBPBB) while QT files are edited at the individual frame level. And so on and so forth. While some applications may contain "hybrid" engines to handle multiple technologies, Apple has typically supported its own technologies. They are, for instance, not in the habit of supporting codecs contained in the AVI file container which Microsoft dropped a decade ago but which is still in such common use by Windows users that it has not been allowed to die a dignified death. In short, Apple is looking ahead to the new codecs which are highly scalable and very versatile in terms of data rates/file size efficiency which can handle anything from e-mail clips up to SD content and beyond to full HD encodings. While an MPEG-1 VCD may offer compatibility with a wide range of older devices it does not offer the same quality to storage capacity ratio offered by H.264/AAC encoded files.
    how did you quote just specific parts and make them blue.
    I use the Level 4 mini text editor.
    Are you typing in your own html codes or something?
    Sometimes. For instance, the new forms are not as HTML "quote" or "line feed" friendly as the old forum. So I no longer indent the blue quoted text and use the "
    " (paragraph) to add additional line spacing.

  • Why won't pdf files embed into Mail

    I cannot embed a pdf file into the body of an email - I've done this before using Mail but cannot seem to accomplish it now. Even though I sent a photo only hours before by attaching it to an email and it embeded automatically. I'm trying to send a fundraising letter accompanied with a newsletter and brochure, all 3 in pdf format. Only the letter needs to be embedded, I guess, although it would be nice if all of them could be read without downloading the attachment, unless the recipients want to do this. Karen

    Same here. Before it worke fine but now it just displays the small attachment logo. The pdf file is 3,5 mb in size. Before even bigger ones have embeded so the cover photo of them has been shown where it is draged and dropped. Spent some valuable weekend time on this job issue so i am crying a river.
    Any ideas?

  • Why won't my music import into iTunes?

    I clicked on File, Add to Library, and then when i choose the song, it doesn't go into iTunes

    Go to iTunes menu EDIT > PREFERENCES > ADVANCED Tab
    you may find iTunes Media file Location box is blank(sometimes this happens after an update).
    If that is the case, click the change button and link it to your iTunes Media Folder as follows:
    Win 7 C:\Users\<username>\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    WinXP C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    However,if your Media Folder is not missing from the Advanced tab, proceed to repair your QuickTime:
    Control Panel >
    Add n Remove Progrms(XP)
    Programs n Features(Win7/Vista)
    highlight QuickTime, click CHANGE then REPAIR
    Restart Computer.

  • Why won't iPhone photos import into iPhoto?

    When I try to import photos from iPhone 4S to iPhoto '08 I get a message saying it doesn't recognize the files. I can see the photos fine on my phone and can even text message and email them without any problem. Every time I try to import new photos I get this same message. Therefore, I have not been able to import any new photos or videos I've taken for over a month. Please, anyone out there know how to solve this problem?

    Good to read and note error messages - it turns out that there is a reason to have them - they often explain problems and the solution to the problem
    Do you have any new photos in the camera roll that have not been previously imported? have you triedPhotoStream - that is generally the prefered way to import photos now? What happens when you click on the phone in the source pane?

  • I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
    A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds.  Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.

  • About Final Cut ProX: why a red line appears at the top o a file imported into a New Event? then when I restarted the Project that files comes as "Missed files" How can i fix it?

    About Final Cut ProX: why a red line appears at the top o a file imported into a New Event? then when I restarted the Project that files comes as "Missed files" How can i fix it? Thank you very much.

    Where are you importing from – a camera or computer? If you are optimizing at import, make sure the background processes are completed. (Command-9)

  • Why won't pdf files print from Safari?

    why won't pdf files print from Safari? I get blank pages. They print fine from Firefox. OS X 10.8.4

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • How much larger is an imovie file imported in FCPX

    just planing to upgrade to FCPX . Would like to know how much larger wil be an imovie event file when imported into FCPX ?
    and for also, for instance, if a camera .mts file is 10GB .. how big when imported into FCPX ?

    None of you using FCPX ???

  • Odd frames added to start of audio export from LPX when imported into FCPX

    Running into a weird issue exporting audio out of Logic Pro (10.0.6) for import into FCPX (10.1.1) - Logic is introducing extra frames (varies between 2 to 4 frames) at the front of exported audio, becomes detectable when imported back into FCPX.
    I do a lot of work where I sync music performances on camera that are recorded in audio and MIDI, and have to deliver remixed audio with picture AND a .MID file that all sync. Workflow used to be shoot video on a C100 and another DSLR with either an audio feed or live mic patched to the camera, while Logic recorded the MIDI performance and any ambient audio via separate mics and pres. Shoot always had some kind of "slated" start marker on camera, in camera audio, and in Logic. Camera edits were edited in FCPX, exported as a Quicktime with the "slate" for a start marker, then audio and MIDI handled in Logic.
    This always used to work thru to last fall, when we took a hiatus.
    Upon resuming some final shooting in the last two weeks, our audio edits are always running 2-4 frames behind FCPX. It's a consistent offset for an entire export (so there's no drift, no jitter within the files - but the slate tones might be 2 frames and 17 subframes behind and the whole audio file runs behind.) Another export might be 3 frames 2 subframes behind. Always kind of random in the amount of drift - but never more than 4 frames.
    Tried a test where I imported just the camera audio in Logic as an extracted audio track, then exported same audio file back to the Quicktime but left the original audio in the video - Logic's exported audio ran behind sync from the original.
    Obviously, I'm paying attention to frame rates, sample rates, etc.
    As a test, I exported an XML out of FCPX, imported it into Logic, performed some edits, and used the File>Export>Project to FinalCut Pro XML - so everything matched across the board. Opened the export in FCPX - audio ran behind sync again.
    If it was just audio I was concerned about, I'd just line it up in FCPX and call it done - but my exported MIDI file NEEDS to be in sync with the picture AND the audio... and wasting time calculating the Logic offset error is a huge detour from getting this work done quickly.
    I thought maybe there could be a plug-in issue, but it happened even in the extracted audio from the Quicktime with no plug-ins in any of the signal chains.
    Any ideas?

    Well… here's a clunky workaround.
    It's either a problem with the exported FCPX-XML or the way Logic Pro X interprets the XML.
    The simple test here was to put a clip in the FCPX timeline and export it as an AIFF and then export an XML too.
    Import the XML into Logic, then import the AIFF as a new track. By default the Logic project is 120BPM. By analyzing the xml-based track and the aiff track, the xml track has an added 164 ticks to the beginning of the referenced video-audio.
    Move the playhead to zero, zoom in to the timeline and drag the tick field to 164 then blade all your tracks, then click/drag the bladed tracks to zero. Voila!
    It seems to only affect the first audio file. So for example, when I have 10 video clips in my FCPX timeline, only the first audio clip has the added 164 ticks.
    Now on to the next challenge…
    It's not enough to just de-compound your clips because L and J cuts get referenced to the VIDEO, not the audio underneath.
    So… In FCPX you MUST select each clip and choose Break Apart Clip Items from the Clip Menu. Perhaps this is old news but thought I'd mention it here in case others were having problems.
    Let's hope Apple steps up their xml game and realizes that when I choose export XML-Audio from the xml popup menu… I want it to send the duration of the audio, not the duration of the attached video.
    Ergh! Well… as my friends say… "We're still in the stone age with all this technology."
    Happy editing all!
