How to transfer libraries from Final Cut Pro to another hard drive?

as you can see, my final cut pro and iMovie libraries take up a lot of space. I would like to move into my external hard drive and remove the internal hard drive. I am worrying that the editing software will not be able to know where libraries are, so can you help me? BTW, I don't like on iMovie libraries. shortly after hötting screens, I deleted them.

PCF. Open select each (sequential) library that you want to move, open the Inspector > Info and click on the button consolidate to collect amy media you used outside the library. Then quit FCP.

In the Finder, drag the libraries to your external drive. That their copy.

Double-click the library icons in their external location. Open projects to make sure that everything is OK. When you are satisfied, they are OK, libraries can trash on your system drive.

PS: This is an excellent bookon the management of the library.

  • Migration of files from final cut PRO HDV

    I am trying to migrate from Final Cut Pro to Windows Adobe Production first CS5.5. I have a number of video files that were originally shot with a SONY HDV camera and captured in FCP. First will not import these files and Adobe Media Encoder has the same problem with the files. It gives me an error to import file:

    ... . MOV could not be imported. The source file is an invalid codec. Please verify that this is a file is valid.

    I have no more SONY's HDV camcorder. I still have my FCP system I try to transcode the files with it. What can I do with these files to run in first? The rest of my video files are of a Canon 7 d.

    Well, I give you two options:

    1. Extracts audio PCM stereo AC3 448 kbps mono the MOV, transcode the dual HDV video and wrap it as a M2T file. It is autonomous, but the audio is recompressed (although it is still high-fidelity).
    2. Extract the HDV video to M2V file, extract the audio PCM stereo WAV file (no recompression) and then you import both in Premiere Pro. You can select both components, right click and select Merge Clip and create a new clip married, then, to hold everything together. You would have to do this for each pair of files, but the advantage is that the audio is exactly the same as the original.

    Take this zip: http://www.mediafire.com/file/94zvvop8rsm9pld/hdv.zip. Extract the content - ffmbc.exe and two batch files called hdv1.bat and hdv2.bat - the folder that contains your images. Double-click the package corresponding to the desired file. hdv1.bat creates a single file (n ° 1, above), while hdv2.bat creates two files (#2 above). Batch files are going to do this for every single MOV file in the folder. It is good to have the choice, no?

    NOTE: It may not work. SBDAs HDV that I already have stereo audio, while your have two mono channels. I think I represented or in the batch file, but you may need some adjustments. What I suggest is to extract these files to a fresh folder first, and one of your copy inside SBDAs and then runs a batch or another. In this way, you can make sure it works without creating gigabytes of unnecessary files.

    Let me know how it goes!

    Hi, Smcc42,

    It is not possible to copy and paste any programs installed on another disk - you must reinstall them because their files are located in various locations on the disk and because of the registry entries.

    This can make the relocation process a little easier:

  • transfer files from your old computer, use old hard drive?

    I just buy new desktop HP Pavilion p6-2120.  I need to transfer files, programs, etc from my 6 year old Dell desktop computer.  I know that I can use the program of transfer of Windows 7 with USB key, easy transfer cable, or external hard drive to move the files.

    As can another method of transfer, I take the old hard drive from the Dell desktop computer & install in the new HP Pavilion?  Is the old hard drive (ATX 80 GB, 7200 RPM, DIM2, XPS2) compatible with the new HP where it will work again?

    Since I am not transfer that much is the best for any purchase a Windows 7 transfer cable?

    mikesimms,

    Your theory is correct. If you want that all settings, email, documents, photos, music, and other data files, use either the program Windows Easy Transfer. It will accept an external device or use the easy transfer cable.

    If you want only the documents, photos, music, and other data files , then you could add the XP disk to the system (temporarily use the p6-2120 DVD player wiring). You can copy files to the new folders.

  • How do I move a file/structure/components (to another hard drive) entirely, the license also

    Ive got a faulty os and need to restore the image of a bu. I need to spend some programs MANUALLY (temporarily) to another hard disk on the same motherboard / os while the image is reloaded for the reintegration of CGRP-before it erases what little damage done to the left. Unfortunately, it did not on the image. How do I feature license filed intact?

    Hello

    You can not move installed programs

    When you install a program it lies not only in the program folder files

    It spread during the operating system: registry, associations with other programs, etc, etc.

  • How to transfer Time Machine backup to the new external hard drive

    I'm upgrading to a 1 hard external to the Western reader to with 5 TB of Seagate.  This is because Time Machine has used the 1 TB drive.  How can I transfer the files from backup Time Machine from the old to the new drive so that backups continue to have access to the old files.

    Although the documentation Apple says you can copy Time Machine backups in the Finder, it is very slow and sometimes does not.

    This technique works only if the volume that you copy to the same size or larger that that you are copying to.

    First of all, please open the Time Machine preference pane and click the Select Disk... button. You may be able to unlock the settings first, by clicking on the padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window. Log in as administrator.

    Remove the volume you want to copy in the list of backup destinations. Then turn off Time Machine.

    Launch disk utility, open the built-in Help and search for the term 'Double '. Follow the instructions. All existing data on the destination volume will be deleted. That shouldn't be a problem, because you do not want to mix non-sauvegarde and backup data on the same drive anyway.

    If the volume you are copying has been encrypted by Time Machine, you must first unlock it. Click the release button in the toolbar of the disk utility window.

    Turn Time Machine back on and select the new volume as a backup destination. Alternatively, you can continue to use the old volume, if you wish. Both will be alternated when both are available.

    ATTENTION: If you copy the volume is corrupted, as shown by the ERD or first aid in disk utility, while corruption is copied to the new drive. Do not copy data from a damaged on a faulty disk volume. Put aside the reader and do not use until you don't know that you no longer need the data. Then securely erase it and bring it to a recycling center. Do the same if the restore operation fails with "disk errors."

  • How can I move a CC (Photoshop) program on another hard drive?

    So in general, I like everything about Adobe CC, but there is a huge drawback, that I can not find a work around - I want Photoshop (which I use 95% of the time) must be installed on my SSD, but the SSD is not large enough to have the range CC installed to him (and it would move other apps that I use most often). Is it possible I can install Photoshop to another drive (on the same computer) than the rest of the suite CC?

    Thank you!

  • I have problems with libraries and events in final cut pro

    I use Final Cut Pro X. was used for 3 or 4 years. I just upgraded to latest version 10.2.3 and I use it on an iMac running El Capitan. The way in which the library is set up is very confusing to me and I can't seem to follow the events and projects on individual drives. It seems all the events and projects are bundled in the libraries, but I can't see them on my hard drive to move or archive them individually.

    And they take almost all of my hard drive.

    I am use to working with events on a separate hard drive, but now I can't seem to put the files on a separate hard drive.

    Just looking for advice or direction here.

    Thank you!

    Looks like you were using an older version of FCP X?

    Things have changed a bit to quit.

    If I buy a newer computer (macbook)... with a NEW version of final cut... If I transfer all my info from my hard drive to the new computer, and if this newer computer has a new version of final cut pro, it will always show my "timeline" I have... to remember all my files?
