21 Q. I need to go back into a previous episode to fix something in its breakdown, then return to the episode I'm currently shooting. As long as I haven't deleted the old project, how do I switch between them? Posted 06/24/2026 Script Dept
22 Q. Several years ago I bought MovieSlate and a timecode sync plug-in for over $100. Is there any way to get that app back without paying again? Posted 06/24/2026 Sales
23 Q. I used to have Sound and Pix star ratings when logging takes, and now they're gone. Did I change a setting by mistake, or were they removed? Posted 06/24/2026 General
24 Q. When I started the breakdown for a new episode, all the work from the previous episode is showing up in the new episode's History. How do I start a new episode cleanly without carrying over the old data? Posted 06/22/2026 Script Dept
25 Q. Post is asking me to send the Editor's Log in scene order rather than day order. Is there a way to sort or re-order the Editor's Log so it's grouped by scene? Posted 06/22/2026 Script Dept
26 Q. I logged some takes under the wrong project. How do I move them to the correct project so my reports come out right? Posted 06/16/2026 General
27 Q. Can I use MovieSlate on a Mac, such as a MacBook Pro, instead of an iPad or iPhone? Posted 06/16/2026 General
28 Q. I'm an AC working mostly with the Alexa 35. The MovieSlate documentation and a demo video show the app controlling an ARRI Alexa. Does that camera-control feature work with the Alexa 35? Posted 06/16/2026 Timecode Sync
29 Q. When I bring my MovieSlate markers into Avid Media Composer, every scene's locators start at 00:00:00 instead of the actual timecode we filmed, and post says they don't match. How do I get the true timecode into the markers? Posted 06/16/2026 Script Dept
30 Q. I can't find anywhere to enter a Production Company for my Camera Report — there's no field for it that I can see. Where does that value come from? Posted 06/16/2026 Script Dept
