Although this probably is the reason, make sure you only have one video source connected to the computer. the QT libraries that Final Cut uses can only understand 1 video hardware device at once, anymore and it can get buggy.

If I understood your question right, I don’t believe there is a way to do that with Final Cut Studio.
What I thought you meant: stretching the waves in the audio frequency vertically instead of increasing the master volume.

Final Cut Pro understands and can use any format that Quicktime can understand. This includes pdfs and Tiffs. I’ve personally used pdfs for many of my projects. It sounds like a bug that your having, ive in countered many bugs in version 6 myself.
Also photoshop has a weird problem sometimes, by ignoring the mask. I’ve only been able to fix this by creating a new mask in photoshop.
I hope you get it to work.

Apple has this on their FCS support forum:
You delete the applications, preferences, and the receipts.
receipts are in Library>Receipts
This is used to show if a program has already been installed, if you leave this it will not do a full install, it will only do an upgrade which installs files that don’t exist. Removing the receipts will make the FCS installer overwrite even existing files like the Application Assets, i.e., LiveFonts or Soundtrack audio files.

You normally do it for personal preferences. I partition so that I can use unstable/Beta OSes with out effect my normal one.
I also partition for a backup database.

Well Quicktime “basic” can play flashes, but I believe the mime type that Apple uses in Quicktime is a little limited, also some websites like Youtube encrypt there flash files. There are some applications that you can download to convert flashes from websites like youtube into a more suitable media file.
Also if flash doesn’t work, try going to the Quicktime system preferences > Advance > mime settings… then scroll down to miscellaneous file formats. In here there will be a check box for ‘Flash Media’, make sure it is checked. This sometimes helps.

Really? I didn’t know about that, Instead I create aliases in the iTunes Music Library.

I was talking about using two locations at once, like two Libraries at the same time. Maybe I read his question wrong.

As long as you have download a quicktime plugin to play it it will work. Quicktime does play most flashes but some like youtube’s it can’t.
FCE uses the quicktime library so you can put anything that quicktime knows into a video. I have even add pdfs to a sequence.

This has to do primarily with the UNIX core if your messing with files that are owned by the System or root. The only thing you can do is to enable the root account, there’s an app in the utilities folder that can do this graphically or you can do this in the terminal.
Be very careful with the root account, you can accidentally corrupt the OS and have to reinstall.
