Can I extend a music track beyond photo or video image?

I am in iMovie 11 and trying to extend a sound track at the end of my project to play past the final image. My song still has 1 minute 30 seconds according to the clip master, but the song ends with the last picture. I can't pull the sound strip beyond the last picture, and when I try to extend in clip master it reverts back to end picture images. Is there a way to have the music play past the final image?

You need to have video or a photo/still running with the audio. You can't drag the audio track beyond the last image. You will need to add a further image or video to cover the remaining part of the song.
To insert a black image, go to the Map, Background and Animatic Browser (the last icon in the centre tool bar). Drag the Black (or any other) background to the end of your project. Double-click this to bring up the Inspector and change the duration to match the section of song you wish to cover. After inserting the background, you will need to drag out the sound track to its full limit (adjust the image duration again if necessary).

How can i recover my music tracks not saved in itunes?

how can i recover my music tracks not saved in itunes back up?

When your data (everywhere- computer, phone, pad) deleted you normally restore it from back up. Find if and where you backed it up and restore from that backup.

Why has my 3G stopped working on my iphone? It is enabled, and I never had problems with it before, but for about 2 months now it has refused to work and as a result I can't send any attachments such as photos or videos via text.

Cellular data is a feature from your phone carrier. Have you contacted them to resolve your issue.

The volume on my iPad 3 has gone. I've checked the mute button, tried restarting, resetting etc and nothing has changed. I can't hear the music, hear any sound from videos. Most times the video stops playing after a seconds. My iPad 3 is only 2 months ol.

If you have lost all sound and video is freezing on you, that ain't good. Your iPad is two months old so I would not hesitate to contact Apple at all. You are entitled to 90 days of phone support.

If you want to try a couple of things on your own, try quitting all apps and then reboot the iPad - not so much for the sound issue itself - but more as a general "start all over again" sort of approach. It might help with the video freezes.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Reboot the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If you use headphones on occasion, you can try plugging and unplugging those as well and see if the sound comes back.
You could even try restoring the iPad to factory settings and then restore from a backup, but unless there is something totally hosed on the iPad, that should not be necessary with a two month old device - of course assuming that you didn't drop the iPad or do something accidental that could be causing the problems.

How can I set different musics to different photo presentations?

With iOS4.3, I could do this easily. Each photo presentation had its own music. With i,OS5, after watching a presentation, if I choose another one, the music that appears is the one played in the last presentation.

I can still change it in the same way as I did on iOS 4 via the slideshow button on the album - each of my albums has a different track. If you haven't selected a track for the album then by default it will have the same track as that chosen for the previous album, but you can just select a different track which should then be remembered for the next time - I tend to start the slideshow after selecting the track and let it play the first couple of photos just to try and make sure that it is remembered.

When I convert a trailer to a project and add content, how can I get the music track to repeat longer

Hey fellow Apple Geniuses - I just got the latest iMovie11 so excited for the new trailer feature, only to discover that these teenie weenie movie trailers are not near long enough for my taste, however I do like the cool transitions and layouts, so I discovered that I can convert the trailer to a project and then add more content, which I am doing right now. I need help though with the audio track... Does anyone know the secret to getting the 43 second music track to repeat, since this particular track (Friendship2) is not showing as an option in my iTunes/iMovie licensed audio to be able to keep dragging more into the movie? Thanks a million!

Hey Tom - Thanks a million truly! Just did what you said and it worked so smoothly! Totally cool! This was the last piece to finish the movie. I appreciate and value your quick response! Happy camper here!

Reformatted PC - now can't manually 'sync' music tracks.

I use iTunes and manually 'sync' my iPod & iPhone with my HP laptop - this has worked fine for years. I have now reformatted my laptop (with Win 7) and reloaded iTunes. Now for both devices, the music is greyed out and I can't change or add music tracks (manually) without iTunes wiping all the music. How can I now manually add/delete tracks?
Thanks.

Wow, that's ridiculous.
I don't understand why it wont just let me manually manage my music and videos, this is absolutely ridiculous.
I've never managed my iphone by syncing so why won't it let me just manually manage makes NO sense.
And because I have a ton of smart playlists on my iphone and I make my playlists on my phone because most of my playlists are smart playlists (Like for example I have my 4 star rated songs and 5 star ones)and I make my playlists mostly on the bus to school. I really don't want to lose my playlists my iphone is so properly organized and right now your saying I'm essentially going to lose all that if I want to add any more music.
This is unnacceptable apple.

Can't assign specific music to specific photo albums in slideshow

I've tried and tried but apparently there is no way to assign specific music to specific photo albums. I had spent some time before getting apple tv arranging my photos into "smart albums" in iphoto and assigning appropriate music to each of them. Unfortunately apple tv does not look at the settings in iphoto to determine how it will display photos. All i can do now is select shuffle music under the slideshow settings in apple tv and whatever music will play is always a mystery.
This is a big problem in my opinion because, for example, who wants to listen to Green Day's "Basket Case" when viewing baby pictures, or Jimmy Buffet's "Margaritaville" when viewing pictures of my kid going sled riding!!

Hi pc2macconverted,
You can sync specific music to a slideshow in two ways, the first is to make a slideshow in iPhoto and attach the music you would like. Remember to sync the slideshow and the music. The second option is to create and sync playlists of music that you would like for your albums and then in the photo settings you can choose the playlist for the music playlist that you would like.
Cheers,
John

Can Not Rename My Music Tracks

I am having trouble renaming my music files i can it looks like the file is missing but I can still play the music but everything is jumbled

I cannot rename any of the info for a song, not even adding artwork. I have tried resetting permissions for the entire iTunes folder and it still won't.
This should be simple.

How can I play several music tracks back to back on an opening slide?

I want to place several music tracks back to back on an opening slide to entertain the audience prior to my start. On Power Point it’s easy but I have found it impossible in Keynote. Using the building inspector and setting stop/start cues just doesn't work, the music stops after build out of track 1. How to do I make the other tracks follow automatically?

There are a couple of ways to do this:
A. Using the Build Inspector (advantage: easy to do - disadvantage: takes a bit of set up & no fade-ins/fade-outs)
1. Place each of your audio files on the slide, select them all and in Build Inspector set all to "Start Audio"
2. Then open the Options Drawer in Build Inspector and select "Start Build Automatically"
3. Select the first audio file in the Build Inspector (I find this easier than guessing which icon is which), note that the audio file icon highlights, then go to Quicktime Inspector and note the duration of the file in seconds.
4. Return to the Build Inspector and select the second file, note that the icon is highlighted, then in the Options Drawer of the build inspector enter then number of seconds of the first files duration into the Delay box for the second file.
5. Repeat, rinse lather and repeat again for each audio file.
By doing the above you avoid having the files all start almost simultaneously and they will play in sequence. Be sure to listen for dead spaces before presenting to your audience and adjust delay times where needed.
NOTE: The maximum delay allowed is 60.0 seconds - if you have audio files longer than this you will need to either break the files into <60 seconds each or use B. below:
B. Use iMovie to create an audio track of all audio files. (Advantage: allows audio fades and overlaps, less math - disadvantage: takes time to put together and you need iMovie, too)
1. Create a single audio file as a .mov in iMovie and export it on to your slide.
2. Set the Start Movie in Build inspector and go.
Hope this helps.

Editing to music track - possible to compile video non sequentially?

Hello chaps.
I'm creating a family skiing video, editing it tightly to a music track - someone falling over hits the beat, etc. You know the drill.
I've run into one problem and I'm trying to work out if I'm missing something obvious, or whether it is a case of can't do that:
What I would like to do.
Rather that simply adding video sequentially from the beginning, there are certain clips that I know will fit well towards the end of the song. I'd like to place them there now. Continually editing from the front tends to lead to me using the best material at the beginning. Yes, I know I'm weak, but I'd like to place key anchor clips in first and then work around them with what's left.
The problem
iMovie 11 mutes the sound track after the end of the last piece of video in the project - so there's no obvious way to add video later on in the track.
What I've tried.
I've tried adding a single black clip that lasts the length of the track, but what I'd then like to do is be able to paste a clip to the playhead and have it replace that portion of the black clip. I can't quite work out how to do that, or if it is the correct approach. Placing the clip as a cut-away almosts works, but having the entire movie comprising cutaways is clearly silly.
Am I missing something?
Does anyone have any advice as to a better or correct approach?

Bengt mentioned using dummy black photos (clips) as placeholders. Another option is to use the templates that are used in Trailers. These are located in the Map, Background & Animatic Browser (the last browser on the far right next to the Transition Browser). Apple calls these templates (or placeholders) "Animatics".
The animatics can be placed along the timeline with varying durations. Later, when adding an actual clip, drag and drop it directly onto one of the animatics. Select Replace from the pop-up menu. If the duration of the actual clip differs from the animatic, the clip's duration will over-ride the animatic's duration. So, it will be a little tricky lining it all up.
I haven't tried this personally, but it may work better than using Cutaways, but could be pretty tedious.
Bengt's assumption regarding Final Cut Pro X is correct - it will handle this type of thing easily. As I understand it, you can insert an audio track, then position video in appropriate places along the timeline without gaps closing up.

Audio level setting for music tracks in dance recital video project

I am editing dance recital using the CD music tracks and editing in the audience clapping, some of the music tracks have lower audio level than others.
I am setting up the audio levels between -3dB (for the lower audio tracks) up to -6dB (for the higher ones) including the audience clapping. I am making the adjustments by listening to the tracks on fixed output volume level.
My question is if the final output (DVD) will have the the same adjusted audio levels I am hearing, or should I just stick to fixed level (-6dB) for all the tracks? If so is -6dB ideal for DVD output?

Thanks for your reply Steve,
I normally watch DVDs on different sound system than the TV, however, from your answer I gather you're setting the master level -18 to -20db. If it is so, are you setting the individual tracks below that, and in my case where the audio levels of the original music fluctuate from high to low, would you set them all on the same level or adjust to hear them out the same?

Can I not buy one plan for Photo AND Video editing? (i.e. Photosop/Lightroom and Premiere Pro/After Effects)

I need photo and video editing...but obviously don't want to pay for 2 separate plans. Also, it looks like with the single app plan you couldn't even get Premiere/After Effects (for instance) together for $20 a month, just one or the other? I've searched around the website but could use some additional clarification please. Thanks,

Lumia 620 can't delete all music tracks

I have tried press and hold on each track but the delete option does not appear. I did manage to delete a few tracks but the last few seem to be un deleteable. As my PC only has XP I can't connect to that. I did remove the SD card and delete the tracks from that but I can't remove any more from the phone memory.

I have experienced that too with the annoying gangnam mp3 on my Lumia 620. I was able to delete it via PC only.
