  • Files show up in ‘Free’, but not in Studio15?

    Posted by Nelson Goforth on October 18, 2018 at 11:25 pm

    I have ProRes 422 4K files that do not show up in Studio 15 (Mac), but do in the free version 15 (I just figured I’d try it). Save drive, same files.

    Any ideas why? This is the version of Studio bought in the Apple Store.

    Thank you.

    Same computer? Same drive? Could it possibly be a permissions problem? In general, any variation of ProRes is an easy import.

    I’m not a fan of the App Store version because it omits a bunch of features, but it does have the advantage on working on several computers at the same time.

    Same computer, same drive, so I don’t imagine it’s a permissions problem…but that’s an interesting call – will investigate. I get no error message – just try “Import Files”, and select from the dialog box, but the selected file never show up in the Media Pool. ☹

    I’m irked with myself that I went for the Apple Store version (a couple years ago), but what’s done is done. Wonder why the difference?

    Thanks for the permissions clue.

    What happens if you start a brand-new project from scratch and try to import the same files? Just curious.

    Once they’re in the new project, it’s very easy to cut-and-paste the clips from the timeline to a different project in Dynamic Project mode. Try that and see what happens.

    Marc: Was/Is a new project. Ugh.
