WIll Changing Reel Names Be a problem in recapture

I am the second editor on the project I am editing. The director and the first editor imported all the tapes with wrong reel name (basically there are 100 tapes and they numbered the first 24 1-24, then the second 24 1-24 again). I want to go through all the clips I need and re-name the reel numbers so when I re-capture in high resolution the computer will know which tapes to ask for. My only question is, when I try to rename the reel, I get a message saying that "changing the timecode data will modify the file on disk"- is this going to be a problem?
Thanks.

That won't be. That is what you want to happen. You want to modify the reel name and you want all of your data to reflect that change. Since the QT captures contain that data, you want it to change. So if you imported that clip into another FCP system...just the clip itself...it contains the timecode and the reel number.

Changing Reel Name

Hi,
I'm creating a video archive with the footage we've recently acquired, and have a question about changing the reel name in the logging info window. I want to change the reel name to correspond to the new tape label numbers I've created for the archive, but when I try to change the reel name FCP tells me that this will change the timecode info and the file itself. Is it best to not mess with the reel name and instead mark my tape numbers in another field like comments?
Thanks,
matt

well originally I hadn't labeled the tapes in FCP while capturing at all because the tapes themselves weren't physically labeled. I decided to go back and label and organize them and now have to go back and update the info in FCP. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't messing with the media at all by changing the reel names.
Thanks,
matt

My bookmark folder names keep changing, sometimes when I make a new folder it will change the name of other folders to the new folder's name, how do I stop this?

I sort all of my book marks into folders with subfolders. Sometimes, for reasons I haven't figured out yet, when I create a new folder or subfolder other folders names will be changed to that same name. Why does this keep happening & how do I get it to stop? This has been happening to me for a while even though I have installed newer versions & updated them, is this just a bug with the newer versions of Firefox? For example, I had a folder with my husbands's name, in the bookmark menu for all his ...I created a new subfolder called phys ed in my education folder ...my husband's folder was renamed to phys ed, also.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Will changing Network name affect Time-capsule back up function

I finally managed to set up my time capsule with Mac support help. I didn't realize until this morning that I didn't want my network name to be my full name. I think I can change the network name easily enough through the airport function. But will this screw up my Time Capsule's attempts to update my files? Do I need to go into Time Capsule and change the network somewhere, or is the program intuative and will do it automatically?

Welcome to the discussions!
Changing the network name will not affect your backups.
You might want to reconfirm the setup for your backups as follows:
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Time Machine
Click Select Disk
Click your Time Capsule disk to highlight it
Click Use for Backups

Sometimes when I open itunes it will change my computer name.

I've been having a problem with my computer changing names on its own. It will change from "name" to "name"(2) and so on. I found a thread that said it might be a Bonjour issue so I toggled bonjour in the following way
To turn Bonjour off:
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
To turn it back on:
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
This didn't help with my issue. now I've notice that it will sometimes rename itself once I open iTunes or wake it from sleep. any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

I got an error telling me iTunes couldn't find my iPhone so I quite iTunes and restarted the application. I was then prompted with the computer name change message. I turned off iTunes sharing, but I'm still having the issue. I think the issue is most likely iTunes and/or something with syncing my phone. My Mac Mini is also showing up on itself as a shared computer??

What will happen if I change the name of my Apple Id?

I have only one Apple Id, which is my email address "[email protected]". My Apple Id and primary email are the same. I now have a new email address, and want to change my Apple Id to my new email address. I've been to the Apple Id support page, and have found out how to change the Apple Id on the Apple Id support webpage. I've been reluctant to go through with the process, because I'm unsure as to what the consequences will be if I change my Apple Id. I have an iPhone and an iPad as well as two Macs and an Apple TV hooked up to my Apple Id. My iMac is the main computer used for storing all files and syncing my iOS devices. In addition my contacts and calendar is in the iCloud. I hope someone with the know-how or experience can help me answer the following questions:
1. iPhone and iPad: Once I change my Apple Id, have I understood it correctly when the next thing I do is that I go to General settings -> Store, and sign out from my "old" Apple Id, and then sign in with the new name for my Apple Id? Will my previous purchases of music, ibooks and apps be connected to the new name of my Apple Id, and will I still be able to get previously purchased apps updated? As for iCloud, what must I do on my iPhone and iPad to make sure that contacts and calendars keep in sync?
2. iCloud: Will changing the name of the Apple Id on the Apple Id support webpage be the only thing I need to do, or are there more steps to follow?
3. iMac and MacBook Pro: Am I right in assuming that all I need to do is sign out from the old named account and then sign in with the new name in AppStore, iTunes, FaceTime and Messages app? Is the Apple Id in use by any other apps or functions?
4. Apple TV: Once my iMac is up and running with the new name of the account, I sign out from the old named account, then sign in with the new name, will streaming music and photos etc. work just as before the name change?
5. I still haven't activated Mail in iCloud. As I understand, once you do that you will be prompted to register a @me.com or @icloud.com email address. Will this address now be possible to use instead of my new email address as the name for my Apple Id?
A lot of questions, still I'd be grateful for some answers.

Hi, everyone,
I just began to use TM to back up my mac. I already have a full backup. Now I want to exclude some folder from backup. I can do this in the option dialog of TM. But I wonder what will happen after I add a new exclude folder. Will TM begin to build a new full backup or just continue to back up incrementally from the older full copy? Thanks.
Time Machine will continue to do incremental backups.
It won't immediately delete previous backups of the items you exclude (but it will, eventually). You can do that yourself, if you want, per #12 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.

Change domain name BPC 10 for MS

Hi,
We will change domain name so I will need to change that in BPC for all the end users, which should not be a problem but for the service users running BPC, BPCInstall, BPCAdmin and BPCUser I guess it can/will be a problem.
Option 1 - reinstall SAP BPC
I have read a sap note(1451175) where they suggest to reinstall SAP BPC,http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1451175
and also sap note(1692721),http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1692721
If I do that the question is can I restore my environment(s) I have today or do they contain the "old" domain name users or is that only stored in the "appserver".
Option 2 - modify SAP BPC
Not recommended according to above note.
Do anyone have any experience in this or suggestions please let me know.

Multiple primary zones work fine within you private DNS services, and would be the usual approach for the local DNS server.
The external (public) DNS services gets another translation and an MX (mail exchange) record that points at your public IP.
If you're renaming the host itself, you'll reset the name through Server Admin, and then verify the change by launching Terminal.app and issuing sudo changeip -checkhostname command. If that doesn't work, you might need to reset the host name via the changeip command; see man changeip for details.
One key piece of all this: your public mail server needs to be an A record, which means your public forward and reverse DNS for your mail server and your MX record and your public static IP address all match.
Your mail server will need to enable the new domain as a virtual host; that'll all it to receive mail for the new domain.

How do I change the name property of a file in a document library?

I am trying to come up with an Event Receiver that will change the name property of an file when it is uploaded. For instance when a file is uploaded into a document Library, currently the Title is being generated (which is fine)...I want to be able to
change the "Name" property from whatever it is, to match exactly what is in the "Title" property. Are there any sample codes/blogs out there that I can take a look at? Has anyone had any experience doing this? It seems like something
that should be straight forward, to change the "Name" property to match what is in the "Tilte" property.

Hi,
You can try the code below which use the SPFile.MoveTo() function to change the name of the file.
EventFiringEnabled = false;
SPFile f = properties.ListItem.File;
string spfileExt = new FileInfo(f.Name).Extension;
f.MoveTo(properties.ListItem.ParentList.RootFolder.Url +
"/" + properties.ListItem["Title"]+ "_new" + spfileExt);
f.Update();
EventFiringEnabled = true;

Trying to change the name of 1 file

I have searched the topic and have not found a solution that works for me,
I am trying to write an AppleScript that will change the name of a single file from path:old.txt to path:new.txt
I have tried
tell application "Finder"
set name of file "work.txt" to PartA & PartG & ticker & ".txt"
end tell
among others and always either receive an error message, access denied or unable to set old file name to new file name

You're missing the point.
set name of file "work.txt" to PartA & PartG & ticker & ".txt"
When you set the name of the file, the Finder needs two things - the original file that you're trying to rename, and the new name you want it to take.
In your revised script you're specifying the existing name (not path) of the file you want to change, and specifying its path along with the new name. That's the wrong way around.
Think of this command in the following manner:
set name of (original file specification) to (new file name)
Now, in the case of the 'original file specification' you need to provide enough information for the Finder to identify the file. You're just saying 'work.txt', but that is not enough (and that's why it's complaining). There could be a hundred 'work.txt' files spread around in different directories on your disk. How is the Finder supposed to know which one you want to change?
A better format would be:
tell application "Finder"
set name of (file "work.txt" of path to desktop) to "ABC.txt"
end tell
In this way the Finder can absolutely identify which file you want to change (the file 'work.txt' that's on your desktop) and the new name you want it to take.
Now, if the file is not on your desktop you can amend the script to include the relevant path, e.g.:
tell application "Finder"
set name of (file "work.txt" of folder "blah" of disk "disk name") to "ABC.txt"
end tell
This tells the Finder to look in the folder 'blah' on the specified disk.
You can also do this by including the path to the file in the form:
tell application "Finder"
set name of (file "disk name:blah:work.txt) to "ABC.txt"
end tell
where you use : to delimit each folder in the path.
Hope that helps.

Transport change of names using a program

I am running an SAP defined routine ANALYZE_RSZ_TABLES on the table RSZCOMPDIR and will change the name of some of the duplicated query names. How can I ensure that this change is transported? Thanks

Hi Niten,
Normally the transports would overwrite the existing changes. However you can also specify that the already existing changes needs to be overwitten. After you release the request and use your transport mechanism you would find the options and one of the options is "overwrite". But different clients use different transport mechanism so you may not be using it. Anycase just transport and check in the Target system.

Ok, I have changed the names of my iPads to each be different- but no matter what I do, the Apple ID comes up the old email address on the old iPad and will not let me update Apps, purchase , etc,

I have used your info to give my two iPads different names. My problem is that my old iPad still has the old email in the Apple ID pop up so it will not let me sign in. I checked my info in the manage my account page and there is my email as primary, which allows me to sign in for apps, etc on the newiPad air, but when I try to update or buy an App on the old iPad, the old email is in the pop up and will not let me sign in.
How do I change the email in the old iPad to match the new iPad????
The Old email is on my manage my account page as a verified ALTERNATE email.

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Have you created a new account or updated your existing account ? All content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, so if you have created a new account then all of your existing downloads will remain tied to your old account.
If you've updated your existing account then try tapping on the id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and log out of it and then log back in with the updated id so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

I have changed the name and password for my Time Capsule and now the Time Machine will not connect

Mac Book Pro
1TB Time Capsule.
Yesterday I changed the name and password on my time capsule and also the name and password of the wifi network as I was having problems with the speed of the internet when using Safari on any of my devices (1 Macbook pro, 1 macbook air, 27" iMac, iPhone and iPad) all other internet services were working fine (email etc.) This seems to have solved the problem.
However, since then, my time machine back ups will not reconnect and there is no option for me to reconnect to the existing back up for my macbook pro.
When I enter the time machine preferences it shows as below that there are no back ups.
Then, when I go to select a drive to use which should be the MacBook under the Backup disks the only option is for me to Remove Disk...
So, my question is, how do I reconnect to an existing Time Machine back up for my MacBook pro as I really do not want to erase and start all over again.
Warning - In my naiveté, I did click on the MacBook in 'Available Disks' but I got the impression that it was about to start a whole new back up and not work with the existing one.
(And does anybody have an inkling as to why there was a problem with Safari on all my devices? I downloaded Google Chrome and that worked fine).

Simply reset the Time Machine.
See A4 here http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
You can then mount the TC disk in finder after you reboot the computer.
You should be able to reselect the TC disk and then it will say it is going to start a new backup.
Ignore this.. when the TM actually loads the TC disk it will discover the existing backup and continue the backup.. but it will give no hint until it actually starts that it won't start a new backup. you just have to believe it won't.. and mostly it works..
Please also install the widget A1 so you have some idea what TM is doing.

Having problem with change of name in the datagrid Coding

I am having problem with changing the name of the datagrid header text name for one of the data either in the flash file or the php file.
The thing is i want to change the Course_Name to Course Name that has no underscore so that it will look nicer in the datagrid but if I change it in the php file like SELECT Course_Name as 'Course Name' ....., it will not turn out in the datagrid when I CTRL ENTER the flash file but the others like Price,description and display is shown.
There is no problem with my php code but I do not know how to change the Course_Name into Course Name so please help me resolve this error that I am having.
This is my flash code
function goCourse(e : MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(5);
refreshResponder = new Responder (refreshSuccess, onFault);
connection = new NetConnection ();
connection.connect (gateway);
dataDG.addEventListener (Event.CHANGE, gridItemSelected);
refreshData (true);
function gridItemSelected (e: Event): void {
ID = e.target.selectedItem.ID;
courseTxt.text = e.target.selectedItem.Course_Name;
priceTxt.text = e.target.selectedItem.Price;
descTxt.text = e.target.selectedItem.Description;
private function getParams () {
var param: Object = new Object ();
param.ID = ID;
param.Course_Name = courseTxt.text;
param.Price = priceTxt.text;
param.Description = descTxt.text;
return param;
private function refreshData (refresh: Boolean): void {
if (refresh)
connection.call ("Course.viewCourse", refreshResponder);
private function refreshSuccess (result: Object): void {
dataDG.dataProvider = RecordSetDP.toDataProvider (result);
dataDG.columns = ["Course_Name","Price","Description","Display"];
private function onFault (fault: Object): void {
trace (String (fault.description));
This is my php file code.
function viewCourse()
$this->connect();
$sql = "SELECT Course_Name,Price,Description,Display
FROM coursetb";
return mysql_query($sql,$this->_connection);

i don't see where you're calling your php file in your code, but change 'Course Name' to 'Course_Name' (or vice-versa) there.

Using log and transfer, how do I change the source reel name?

I am importing/transfering native camera footage from folders on a disk that have the same card numbers, FCP is assigning the card number as the source reel. Is it a problem if there are 2 source reels named the same? ie card 1?
If so how do I change the name of the reel for footage already transferred and how do I assign a new reel name before transfer?
Thanks!

Chacos wrote:

In the FCP Browser, switch to list view, then scroll the browser to see the Reel Column. You can enter the reel number there by clicking where the reel number would be and entering it. After you have done one, copy that reel text, and then select multiple clips and paste the reel number into them simultaneously.

Changing the Reel Name after capture

It appears that you can change a clip's assigned Reel Name by editing the clip's Reel attribute in the FCE browser. (If you change the Reel attribute value, you get a warning that it will modify the file on disk.)
Is there any other way (or utility) to view or edit a clip's assigned Reel name other than via the FCE Browser? I have not found any way to do it in QT Player, QT Pro, GetInfo or any other means.

Not that I know of. Maybe CatDV or something like that.
