WMP codecs missing after import, save & close without exporting

So I can't find the answer to this anywhere and since it takes more than a few words to explain it, I'll try here.
So this is what happens.
The file is fine
I import it into CS6
If I save and close the CS6, then try to play the files with Windows Media player, they annouce an error message saying some codecs are missing
Then if I reopen the saved file in CS6, the files are all listed as missing.. and if I reimport them, only the audio is imported and the video is mysteriously gone.
Do I need to install codecs or whaaaat?

Uninstalled and downloading a torrent.
Not the direction that I would have headed, but I wish you luck.
The MJPEG CODEC has gained some popularity fairly recently (it's an older CODEC), and many different companies have tweaked it for better performance. Often, one of the generic MJPEG CODEC's, such as Morgan, or MainConcept, will work just fine, but in some cases, one really needs to go to "the source," i.e. the camera mfgr., to get their specific version.
I do not know Pentax, but with Panasonic, Nikon and Canon (examples that I own), their version of the MJPEG CODEC is installed along with the utilities for the camera, even if one never plans on using those utility programs to edit, or perhaps catalog the footage.
Good luck, and please report,
Hunt

  • All clips missing after import from camcorder!

    All clips are missing after import from camcorder - Canon ZR20.  For some tapes all clips are there, for others there are none.  All the files are there in the finder, but I don't know how to have them show up in Final Cut Pro X.
    Any suggestions?

    Ok - this is frustrating.  I have been importing my old miniDV tapes again into FCPX as I wasn't able to transfer all of these projects from iMovie - don't get me started...  After importing about 7 of the tapes the first 3 came in fine, but the last 4 didn't have any clips as I said in my original posting.  Now after restarting FCPX a couple of times all of a sudden the clips are all coming in!  Strange!  Guess I'm OK now.

  • DI custom SQLs were missing after importing a good ATL file

    The customer had a strange issue recently - lots of custom SQL statements were missing when they imported a good ATL file into a brand new repository. This hasn't happened before. And they are sure that the DI repository versions are the same between the one it was exported and imported. I did some troubleshooting for them and found out:
    1) The custom SQLs are intact when I opened the ATL file in a text editor. And the ATL file can be imported without any issue into other repositories.
    2) Most custom SQLs are missing but not all. Some are imported OK.
    3) When I opened the SQL tranform for those with missing SQLs, the textbox area for the SQL statement was blank. This caused errors in validating the job.
    4) Sometimes the issue was resolved when the developer re-initialized the repository and imported the ATL again. But sometimes this strategy doesn't work - the SQL statements are still missing after the repository has been re-initialized a couple of times.
    The DI version is 11.5.3 on HPUX with repository version 11.5.1.5. The repository database is either Oracle 9i or 10g.
    Thanks,
    Larry

    The issue was resolved. The error occurred because of the database version mismatching. When the job was exported from the dev repository, datastores were excluded. The datastores in dev point to Oracle 9i sources. However, when datastores were recreated in test, some of them point to Oracle 10g sources (same database structure, just version upgrade). Therefore, when the job was exported from the test, although the datastores were still excluded, the version number "10g" were embeded in the SQL transform. This caused the SQL text to be excluded when importing ATL into the dev repository.
    The action taken is to 1) delete datastores with version 10g; 2) create one with version 9i; 3) then exported the job into a new ATL. The new ATL can be imported into the dev repository without any issue.
    Thanks,
    Larry

  • Pics missing after import

    I was importing pictures from my camera to iPhoto, the import finished....the pics were erased from my camera. Then iPhoto quit unexpectedly. When I go back into iPhoto my pictures that were just imported were no where to be found. Sad sad story.....can anyone think of a way to find them.....are they placed in any other location???
    Thanks for the help

    Katie:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Open the iPhoto Library package and see if there's a folder in there titled "Import" or "Importing". If there is look in side and see if there are any files in it. If so move to the desktop, launch iPhoto and import the contents of that photo. If those are your missing file you're done.
    If not you may have to get a 3rd party file recovery application like MediaRECOVER to recover the deleted files from the camera's memory card. If your camera does not mount on the desktop you'll need to get a card reader. IMO using a card reader and not having iPhoto delete after import is the best way to go. I always let the camera reformat the memory card after uploading.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Categories Column Missing After Import

    After importing some photos from my camera my iPhoto window is left in a strange state which I cannot seem to get out of even if I restart iPhoto or reboot the machine. It doesn't show the categories on the left at all and it shows a big blank grey window on the right with nothing to click on. The bottom shows all of the usual controls (Split, Edit, Rotate, Hide, Flag, Book, Calendar, Card, Web Gallery, Email, Print, Order Prints, and iWeb and below them add, info, fullscreen, play, search, and the thumbnail scaler). I was at one point able to fix this somehow by going into Time Machine and doing something (I know not what) and it went back to normal when I returned but I can't seem to replicate the effect now. Help!

    Brian
    Move your cursor to the extreme left of the iPhoto Window until it becomes a '+' then click and drag right.
    If that doesn't work, try trash the com.apple.iphoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder

  • How to remove connect and workbook link after pressing Save as,Print,Export

    I have to remove the connect link and workbook link which appear AFTER pressing Save as,Printable Page,Export in a discoverer viewer report. I had already removed the link in the report itself with changing the uix files, but after pushing the link for export, save as or print the link Connect and Workbook still appear.
    I know that I have to change something in UIX Files, but which one and what I have to change...? Have anyone an idea? Thanx for fast reply, it´s a urgent problem.
    in addition: In metalink,otn and google were no solution...

    If the tone really is a single (or at least narrow band) frequency like the picture shows, I'd try the Notch Filter on the Audition/Effects/Filter and EQ menu.  It might take some playing around to get the exact frequency and tweak the amount of cut you apply vs. the effect it will have on surrounding frequencies--but if you can get the right balance, you can then easily apply this to the whole of every file.
    Sorry, can't help on the Premiere Pro question since I only use Audition.

  • How to save recording without export?

    In Quicktime (using Lion), I used to start a new audio recording and it would record on the desktop.  I would then "save as" and just name the file.  Done.
    Now, using Mountain Lion, and the "save" option is gone.  I can only "export" which then proceeds to encode the file.  The encoding process takes a long time when before I didn't have to encode at all.  Is there a way around this?

    The original question was to STOP THE ENCODING PROCESS.  Can someone please answer the original question.
    It seems to me that your wounds are self-inflicted. If you don't want the file to be converted, then stop selecting the "Audio Only" format.
    As indicated below the "Format" pop-up, this selection exports your current Linear PCM audio file in a generic format compatible will all devices and media players—i.e., as an AAC audio file.
    On the other hand, if you wish to use the export option and save your audio recording in its original recorderd format, then use the defaulted "Movie" Format pop-up which refers to the MOV file container and is the generic QT file container that can be used to store audio, video, or any other compatible data format.
    If you feel more comfortable seeing the word "Save" in the "Export/Save" window, then instead of selecting the "Export" File menu option, select the "Close" option (or press the red encircled "X" in the QT X player window to open the "Save" window depicted above. It basically offeres the same options as the File "Export" option since Apple has essentially merged the "Save, Save As..., and Export" functions into a single workflow. (Like you, I don't really like this arrangement and that is why I continue to use QT 7 Pro for most QT player-based operations.)

  • HDV codec missing after Archive & Install?

    I use FC Studio (FCP 5.0.4), QT 7.2
    Last Thursday I began importing HDV for a project from a Sony HDR FX-1E (HDV 1080i) with all the capture settings set properly. Capture results were fine.
    Yesterday I had to Archive and install Tiger due to some severe font issues which were affecting the performance of the machine.
    Today it seems some of QT's HDV codecs have gone missing, even with the software updated and running. I can open the clips in QT and hear sound, but no picture, only white screen. I can't set sequences properly in FCP either. It tells me a codec is missing and it sets the QT compressor automatically to "animation".
    Is there any way to solve this? Do I have to reinstall FCP? I am already seeing my monday morning deadline slipping away! If anyone can offer any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance.

    *Do I have to reinstall FCP*
    Yes, you do... After an archive & install quicktime is reinstalled in its standard configuration... The HDV codec is ususally installed by FCP...

  • Photos missing after importing to ipod

    I just restored my ipod photo back to factory setting and re-imported all my music and photos. After completion I got a message to say not all photos have been successfully imported since some are missing in iphoto. I know they are all there because I have previously imported all of them. The albums which were imported are only up to a year old, older photos are missing. Please let me know what can be done to include the older albums.

    Soft reset phone. Are they in photos app? Or on vcloud?

  • Video clips missing after import Please advise

    I am new to this whole video editing and just learning. Before taking it to an editor I tried to import a DVD I had transferred from a VHS tape. All the video os on the DVD that was made but when i convert took the DVD and imported it I am missing about 5 minutes of footage that I needed.
    I read by using the disk utility and selecting the disk and then select new image it was able to transfer into readable files for Imovie. But in the import window there is a time stamp that says 9:58 seconds but I am still missing several minutes of video. What am I doing wrong.

    Hello again,
    I just converted one of the H.264 QT movies to 'Apple Intermediate' and now the both video and audio assets import just fine.
    So, I must assume that the problem has something to do with H.264, but any light that can be shed on this would be appreciated.

  • Random picture folders missing after import

    I am running a Macbook pro. I use a 120gb external drive to store my photos as i have about 40 gb of both RAW and JPEG images.
    I have attempted to import these as referenced images as per the Aperture guide but when the folders are imported random ones are missing.
    I have also tried importing a limited number selected folders folders as managed images into aperture but random folders still disapear.
    Acoording to the pro DVD that came with aperture importing referanced files by clicking import > "folders as projects" should create a mirror image of my file system on my external hardrive but with thumbnails as opposed to the full sized raw file.
    Is this random file import a problem with aperture, or am i doing something wrong?
    thanks,
    Rob

    A possibility is that the files have multiple tags, i.e. both id3v1 and id3v2.x. iTunes seems to behave best when there is a single properly populated id3v2.3 tag.
    If you move you library properly there is no need to "Add Folder to Library" on the new system and such problems don't arise.

  • Photos missing after import.

    Hi-
    Hope someone can help.
    I was importing about 200 photos from my iPhone (4 with iOS 5.0.1) when I got a call, which I ignored.  iPhoto (7.1.5)  was just "finishing" when the call came in and this seemed to send it into the spinning wheel and then iPhoto crashed.
    Photos are now not on the phone nor on the computer (iMAC w/ OS 10.6.8).  
    Any thoughts or help?  I don't use iCloud or photostream yet so no help there.
    Next time I sync I'm going to put it in airplane mode.
    Thanks for any help.
    David

    Go back to your main Library.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
