    OK – So I have a bin of clips that I need to batch import. I select all – BATCH IMPORT – ALL CLIPS – then I select the entire list in the “locate the file” section – I then locate the new file location and it only applies to ONE clip at a time.

    In the past, once you select the first file location, the rest will automatically locate as well (yes all in the same folder), but now it will only locate ONE FILE AT A TIME.

    Please advise.

    Thank you so much in advance for your help

    Hey andrea

    One possible solution is to make sure that all the clips in the bin have the same file path or location. If they do, you can select all the clips in the bin and use the batch import function to import them all at once. However, if the clips have different file paths or locations, you may need to locate each clip individually. Double-check that the file paths or locations are consistent across all the clips in the bin to make the batch import process more efficient.
