    Make sure the timeline panel is selected before you use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow ( and Shift + Up Arrow, Shift + Down Arrow) keys.

    Guys,

    in my case the issue is not solved: the track selected. When usind the standard Option+Lef or Option+Right the playhead doesnt go the next clip, but the the next "marker", I havn't set any markers, so it simply goes to the next clip in EVERY track, not just the one on which I'm working at the moment. 

    So how can I restrict it to one track?

    Doesnt even change anything if I make it a solo clip or not.

     

    It would be a huge help, if you tell me how to solve it!

    Try the up/down arrow without any modifier.

    Well it jumps to the next track ubove or below respectively.

    For now I have moved the track far right so that there is nothing on the rest of the tracks.

    Which is an ad hock tinkering thing. 

    I have acrually changed the shortcut to the up/down arrow just as you have written. Changing is just for congruence with Premiere but this is not the point here as you undestand.

    My question is still how to actually make it possible to work on one track and the rest wouldn't  intervene.

    I meant up arrow, down arrow in fcp.  There's gotta be a way in Premiere pro, right?

    Didn't know I had to select the track. Ohhhhh, the learning curve!

      And for bonus points, it doesn't work on the "out" point in your sequence.   So if you only have one clip in your sequence, you'll be pounding the down arrow and swearing, wondering why it doesn't work (which is how I spent my morning).
