31 Q. MovieSlate is crashing and support asked me for a crash report. How do I find the diagnostic log and send it to PureBlend? Posted 06/16/2026 Troubleshooting
32 Q. I'm using MovieSlate's Multicam tab with my RED camera. When the DP starts rolling, MovieSlate starts a shot fine, but when he stops the camera MovieSlate thinks it's still rolling and won't stop the shot. What's going wrong? Posted 06/12/2026 WiFi Device Sync
33 Q. I'd like the video feed from Q-Take to show up in MovieSlate's Video tab, the way my old Teradek Cube did. Can MovieSlate pull in a Q-Take feed — and if not, is there a way to see both apps at once? Posted 06/12/2026 Pro Features
34 Q. I traveled to a different time zone and MovieSlate's time-of-day timecode isn't matching the new local time. My iPad shows the correct time, but the app's clock-based timecode is still on my old zone. How do I fix it? Posted 06/12/2026 Timecode Sync
35 Q. I copied an annotation and pasted it onto a script page, but it doesn't appear. When I tap where it should be I can see its selection outline, yet the annotation itself stays invisible. How do I fix it? Posted 06/11/2026 Script Dept
36 Q. I imported another script supervisor's lined pages into MovieSlate, but when I updated to the latest script revision her lining/markup didn't appear on the new pages. Is that normal? Posted 06/10/2026 Script Dept
37 Q. I have my wired timecode cabling set up correctly, and under the timecode test I can see a strong incoming signal. But when I go back to the slate, the app's timecode still isn't matching my generator. What am I missing? Posted 06/09/2026 Timecode Sync
38 Q. Two of us are co-logging on separate iPads using App-to-App sync. We both saw the "Choose Remote Control" option, and our shots aren't advancing the way they did before. Who is supposed to pick whom, and what controls this? Posted 06/09/2026 App-to-App Sync
39 Q. In the History tab, the Edit button for track information on my takes is grayed out and I can't add or change tracks. This worked before — what happened? Posted 06/08/2026 Sound Dept
40 Q. I'm trying to sync MovieSlate to a music track, but when I browse to it in the media picker, I can tap it but nothing happens — it doesn't get selected. The same track plays fine in the Music app. Posted 06/05/2026 General
