Q: Where are movies shared to Apple devices stored exactly? When I shut down FCPX the shared movie disappears from iTunes.

FCPX v10.2


 

Destination settings:

Apple Devices 1080p

Video Codec: H.264 Better Quality

Resolution: 1920x1080

Add to playlist: Library

 

Many thanks for anyone who can help me before I completely lose my mind!

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

    Hey Doug.You're talking to fellow users who are trying to help. If you want to make sure Apple gets your comments, there is a FCP Feedback link available from the application menu.

    Thanks for clearing up my little head-scratcher, Tom. I have been exporting to my own personally designated folder for years. Then I took my brand new shiney MacBook on a road trip to continue editing a video. The first surprise at the first stop was that th font was using was not on the MB, and iMac was 900 mi away.

     

    But back on subject, when I got around to sharing to an apple device, it gave me no choice except iTunes,although I was able to drag a copy from iTunes to the folder. Thot it was something about the MB, so thanks for the answer I haven't had occasion to seek since FCPX first came out. Now I'll just hav to keep the page open til I get home,as I looked it up at a soccer game.

    And from home after checking it out, just to clarify the details for others:

     

    Dunno how this works for any other share selections, but for 720 or 1080 iDevice share, once it is selected, click the "Settings" button, and where it sez "when done", click the default "Library" for a drop-down menu. At the top of that menu, select "do nothing".  When you then click "Next" in the lower right, it will bring up a box with the default filename giving you a chance to change the file name and select where you wish to save the file.  (Remember that the "v" next to the file name opens up the folders for the "Where" that has been selected.)

     

    Hope this helps any other random seekers.  Can't say I found it intuitive, but it must have been easy the first time I did it years ago on my iMac.  When looking at the choices on my MB while away from my iMac, I failed to see the "do nothing" option at the top.

     

    Oh. I see Tom beat me to this information by 3 minutes, using fewer words..

    If you set "Add to playlist" to "Do Nothing", you are later asked to specify a save location:

    hope not too late to response this......

     

    RIGHT click on the file, select 'Get Info'

    Then 'File' tab.

     

    in the 'location', should see the name of the file and location.  something like this.....

    /Users/ ** user's name **/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Home Videos/Untitled Project.mov

     

    hope that helps.
