GarageBand 2013 did not split a clip into separate clips.

I moved my playhead to the exact location that I wanted the first clip to end at and the second clip to begin at. I then clicked on Edit, then "Split Regions at Playhead." However, GarageBand did not split the clip.
Please tell me what else I need to do.
Thanks!
Montana B.

Montana,
did you select the region you want to split? It does not suffice to select the track, the region in the track needs to be highlighted. You can tell if the region is selected, by the lighter upper border, where the name of the region is. In the example below, the region in the middle is selected, the other regions not.

Import not splitting scenes into separate clips

I am having a problem that I never encountered before upgrading to iMovie 6.
When I import my Mini DV footage, iMovie no longer splits it into separate clips with each scene break. And, yes, I have selected the "Start a new clip at each scene break" option in Preferences (I have even tried deselecting it, and then re-selecting it). The separate clips option always worked with iMovie 5.
I end up with one long clip, and have to spend extra time manually splitting it up. Very annoying.
My camcorder is a Samsung SC-D351.
Any thoughts?

Thanks, David and Robert. Robert got me thinking in the correct direction, and David came to the same (correct) conclusion that I did.
Because the problem first happened after I upgraded to iMovie 6, I wrongly assumed it must be a software issue. However, the problem was indeed the camcorder's internal clock. When I checked the info on the last (uber-long) clip I had imported, it told me the create date was 2017.
Once I replaced the camcorder's internal battery and reset the clock, all was well. So, I feel a bit like a dummy. But thanks for letting me bounce my question off you, and for steering me in the right direction. Hopefully this thread will help somebody else with the same problem in the future.
Oh, and thanks to Smtr for trying to help.

How To Automatically Split A Large Clip Into Smaller Clips

I captured several one-hour tapes with an older version of Windows Movie Maker.
They are AVI files.
I'd like to work with the footage when I purchase Premiere Pro CS5.5 or CS6.
Each tape is composed of several starts and stops of the record button, so lots of individual clips inside of the hour-long captured footage.
In Premiere Pro CS 5.5, is there a way to automatically split a large clip into smaller clips at the points where I started and stopped the camera?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Flyingfish,
I cannot tell you that.
Historically, with "consumer" CODEC's, PrE often gets native support, before PrPro.
However, with "professional" CODEC's, such as RED, PrPro has those, but PrE will likely never get them. There are some pro CODEC's, that PrPro does have, that PrE is missing, but I do not have a list.
Good luck, and wish that I had more info for you.

"these clips were left offline and not divided into separate clips"

After a Maxtor brand hard drive crash, I am trying to recapture footage that was lost. I am using the exact same tapes and source deck as I did originally. In the process of recapture, repeatedly, I get "Batch capture encountered timecode breaks in sequence items. To protect your edits, these clips were left offline and not divided into separate clips." The result is, after spending whatever the time for each clip to capture I get nothing.
How do I turn off whatever unnecessary protection mechanism is in place? How do I recapture my clips?

I've already tried both "create new clip" which created NO clip. The I tried "Warn After Capture" and it can't find the last second of video on the tape, so results in nothing.
I'm now into a new subject. I have created an EDL of the finished project and have tried to re-import that EDL into FCP for recapture. But every attempt to bring the EDL back in results in "Error Importing EDL" and I'm still screwed. Yes I have stripped the recapture information down to the most basic, cuts only, no effects, no filters EDL and it still won't work--I've made dozens of attempts. That may become another query on here: How do you make an EDL that will re-import into FCP? Stay tuned.

Import video and be broke into separate clips by scene breaks.

Is there no way anymore to have iMovie create separate clips for imported movies by scene breaks on the camcorder? I know previous versions would recognize when the filming stopped then started again and separate these into separate clips.
(I'm talking about in the Even Library not Projects)
I know I can select one frame and delete it to create separate clips then but its one more step and will lots of scene breaks makes it a pain in the @$$

I am importing from a Sony Digital 8 camcorder through firewire just like I always did. When I imported the footage in imovie o9 instead of detecting when the recording stopped and started again and breaking it into separate event clips it put it as on big clip.
It imports the clips as .dv files

How can I split a movie in separate clips?

I'm an iMovie newbie, and although I consider myself very computer savvy, I'm stumped by a few issues I have in my first major project with iMovie. Here's what I'd like to do, but I just don't seem to figure it out.
For the record, I'm on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro and I'm running iMovie 10.0.3, which I believe is the latest version. I'm running Mavericks 10.9.3.
I have a one hour movie of a friend of mine in concert. She wants to have each song performance broken out as a separate clip. I've imported the entire concert video successfully but just don't seem to be able to create the clips other than scrubbing each song separately, dragging it to the timeline, adding effects at the beginning and end of the clip, then saving it as a file. It just seems very cumbersome and I'm sure there is a better way to do this.
Ideally I'd like to split the entire clip into separate songs and then work on each one individually. I'm sure this is doable, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.
In advance, many thanks for the help!

The easiest way to do this in iMovie is to go to the Project Library view and select your project. Then FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT. Create a duplicate for each song you need.
Now, open one of these duplicate projects for editing. Delete everything except the song you want to keep. Repeat until you have all your songe.

How do you cut an imovie clip into two clips?

How do you cut an imovie clip into two clips? I have a very long clip from which I want to remove the middle (and keep the beginnin and end).

There are several ways to do this. Here are a couple.
1) Drag the long clip into your project. Drag to select the portion you want to remove. Then right-click/Split Clip. This will give you three clips, the first, the last, and the one in the middle that you want to delete. You can select the middle clip and right-click/Delete Selection.
2) Drag the long clip into your project. Drag to select the frames you want to delete. Then right-click/Delete Selection.

Need to split long movie into many clips to edit video

I upgraded to iMovie 11 from iMovie HD 6...it was a long wait to get audio and video editing that was at least as good as HD 6. We had some 40 year old Super 8 movies digitized and used HD 6 to split them into clips so I could edit parts that were almost black, or some almost totally blown out. I realized that this could probably be done better with 11, so purchased it, but couldn't import the HD 6 clips. Was told I had to export the whole movie as a single clip, then import into 11 and break them apart again to edit.
While I was proficient in HD 6 enough to produce some good stuff, iMovie 11 is befuddling to me, which is a surprise since I do fine with the latest iPhoto, which uses similar terms and processes. I have ordered David Pogue's book; while waiting for it to arrive, my main question is: how do I split this 75 minute movie into multiple clips for editing purposes? Apparently splitting can only be done in the project library, and apparently 11 will only let you split into 2 or 3 clips???
Thanks for any help.

First, you may not need to spit the event clips at all. You can select short bits of the long event clip and drag it into your project as you wish.
Having said that, there are good reasons to split event clips. For example, the 75 minute movie may contain many logical events that you wish to split out by date. In this case, iMovie 11 can do it, but I would not recommend it. It is a slow process and is prone to error.
I would recomment that you use a free app called MPEG Streamclip from Squared Five (google it).
To use MPEG Streamclip, drag your long clip into MPEG Streamclip.
Then, move the cursor to the "in" point of the clip, and press i. Move the cursor to the "Out" point of the clip, and press o. Then, FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME (or FILE/EXPORT TO DV if it is DV). Then repeat until you have done this for all clips you want.
If you know the date and or time of the footage, name your file
clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss
(let mpeg streamclip provide the extension). This will provide metadata that iMovie will use to put the event in the right year and month.
When finished splitting your long clip, import into iMovie by using FILE/IMPORT...MOVIE

Drop ship line did not split, the material have partial receipts, can the PR and PO be canceled?

hello,
I need some help with this issue. We have a drop ship line that have 270 cartons in status awaiting receipt, but in the inventory already received 624 cartons. The line of that sales order needs to be closed now, to invoice the customer. But the PR and PO looks like OPEN.
I tried to manually split the line in the sales order. To have two lines; one with the 624 already received, and other one for the 96 cartons left. But an error message shows when i do this.
The error its : You are not allowed to split Order Line because:Line is released to purchasing
I found in the ORDER ORGANIZER when i chek the Sales Order, the ORDER SOURSE LINE REFERENCE the last line (which suppose to be splitted with the reception of the material) have a number lower than the line before it.
example: line 2.5 have OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL27231981 and line 2.4 OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL27232315
Can somebody help me with this?
i also found a bug in meta link but i think something can be done. bug 2281449.
Thank you,
Paloma Cadena

We had similar issues in the past. We solved them by doing a mini customization.
The customization created an short-text attachment of the type "Note to receiver" at the PR level. The attachment included the Sales order # and line#.
This attachment flows from the PR to PO and is also available to the receiving clerk during receipt.
However, once the PO is received, we did not transfer the information to onhand. I don't think one can unless the item was serialized or lot controlled.
Hope this helps,

We had a contaminated email and now we cannot send emails . our service provider thinks problem in 'mail' settings but did not want to get into that area. Can you advise how we look into this

we had a contaminated email and now we cannot send emails. Our service provider advises that 'Mail' settings may be compromised. but were not willing to get into resetting. How can this be fixed ?

Not exactly sure what you mean by contaminated, but there is currently no known e-mail that could impact the Apple Mail application as you have described.
Without knowing who your e-mail provider is and what type of account (IMAP or POP3) we can't advise you as to what those settings might be.
One way to fix it would be to delete the account from Apple Mail Preferences->Accounts and add it back.

When importing a cd it splits the album into separate individual tracks instead of 1 album with numerouse tracks - how do I get them all together

When I import a CD from the Apple Mac drive it splits the cd into numerous single tracks in itunes instead of 1 album with all the tracks. How can I get it to import to the one place. I did try importing the same cd on a friends apple mac to see if it did the same thing and it imported the cd as 1 album with all tracks in there so I can't understand why it's separating them all.

This happens mostly when you import a compilation or a CD that is not noted in the Gracenote Database.
How to change back in one Album:
Mark all titles of that album (shift or cmd click)
Right click and choose "Get info"
Fill in the wanted name in "Album" and "Album Artist*"
Drag&Drop the wanted Album Art to the little window down right in that pane.
iTunes group and sort albums by that two entry's in the info pane. If the CD is not listed in the database but the titels, iTunes split the album to fit the titles to eventually matching albums of the artists.
Cheers - Lupunus
* If you import a compilation, choose "various artits" for the Album Artist field.

How to split column wise into separate flat files in ssis

IN SSIS...
1.---->I have a sales table country wise regions like (india, usa, srilanka) ....
india usa
srilanka
a b
c
d e
f
so i want output like in
flat file1.txt has india flat file2.txt has usa flat file3.txt has srilanka
a b
c
d e
f
2.----->i dont know how many regions in my table....dynamically split into separate flat files ....
pls help me.....thank u

I think what you can do is this
1. Do a query based on UNPIVOT to get the data as rows instead of columns
For that you can use a query like this
IF OBJECT_ID('temp') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE temp
CREATE TABLE temp
Country varchar(100),
Val decimal(25,5)
DECLARE @CountryList varchar(3000),@SQL varchar(max)
SELECT @CountryList = STUFF((SELECT ',[' + Column_Name + ']' FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = '<SalesTableNameHere>' FOR XML PATH('')),1,1,'')
SET @SQL= 'SELECT * FROM <SalesTableNameHere> t UNPIVOT (Val FOR Country IN (' + @CountryList + '))p'
INSERT temp
EXEC (@SQL)
Once this is done you'll get data unpivoted to table
Then you can use a execute sql task with query like above
SELECT DISTINCT Country FROM Temp
Use resultset option as full resultset and store the result to an object variable
Then add a ForEach loop container with ADO enumerator and map to the object variable created above. Have variables inside loop to get inidvidual country values out.
Inside loop place a data flow task. Use a variable to store source query , make EvaluateAsExpression true for it and set Expression as below
"SELECT Val FROM Temp WHERE Country = " + @[User::LoopVariable]
Where LoopVariable is variable created inside loop for getting iterated values
Inside data flow task place a oledb source, choose option as SQL command from variable and map to the above query variable.
Link this to flat file destination create a flat file connection manager. Set a dynamic flat file connection using expression builder. Make it based on a variable and set variable to increment based on loop iteration
The core logic looks similar to this

Editing long clips into short clips and naming them differently

I've got a long clip that I'm trying to break up into lots of shorter clips and give different names to. So I loaded the clip into the timeline, press Control-V where I want to cut, and then drag that clip back into the Browser. But every time I drag a new one to the Browser and rename it, the names of the other clips change to be the same as the just-named clip.
What am I doing wrong? What's the easiest way to do what I'm trying to do?
TIA

RE: timecode when capturing.
Timecode is always captured (DV in this case) as long as you do not use 'non-controllable device' as the capture protocol. When you use 'non-controllable device' no timecode is delivered even if it did exist on the tape.
Put another way, if there is TC on the tape, Capture Now will bring it in as long as you have 'Firewire' or 'Firewire Basic' (whichever is appropriate for your capture device) selected.
There is one other way to capture full tapes and still get individual editable clips (and I HATE subclips ...). Squarebox makes a simple app called Live Capture Plus that will capture a complete tape in one pass then break the resulting large file into individual clips based on start/stop detection. It works quite handily and will allow you save your drive mechanism if you are using your camera as a deck (and Canons are not known for robust tape subsystems). If you combine LCP with CatDV you have a robust cataloging system as well.
Good luck.

Breaking a long clip into 'sub-clips'

So, I have a long clip that I've imported from, say a single long shot at an event. I want to break that clip up into what used to be subclips. I want to be able to treat those subclips as if they were clips - I want to be able to give them names, organize them in folders and I want to be able to drag them onto the timeline.
My question is, how does Apple think we should be doing this? The way that I see recommended around the web is:
Select your 'master' clip.
Set In and Out points.
Bring up the keyword editor.
Enter a new keyword for that 'subclip'
Doing this allows you to organize each 'subclip' by the keyword that's assigned to it and, by 'expanding' the master clip in the clip window, you can see the subclips/keywords in that master clip and you can drag them onto the timeline.
There are big issues with this, however.
There is no easy way to organize these subclips. Lets say I make 40 subclips (keywords) from a master clip. I then organize them into folders, 20 per folder, according to how I want them grouped. When I select a folder, I see a list of 20 clips - all named the same ... they are all named after the master clip! I have no way of telling which clip is which without individully exanding each clip! I could go back to the actual master clip by looking at it under the Event and exanding the master clip to see the list of all the 'keywords' - but then I have no way of orgainizing them - they're all just under that master clip.
What I want is not a 'keyword' - which is essentially a reusable identifier, used in this work-around as a single-use identfier - but a way of making parts of a master clip funtionally equivalent to the original master clip. Just because I shot some things in one take - especially with event videography - that doesn't mean I want them grouped together for editing. As far as I can see, there is no way to dissociate these subclips from the original master clip for the purposes of working with them.
This is basic functionality ... so am I missing something? What is the non-workaround way of doing this?
Here is another explanation of the issue by a kindly blogger:

Well, the difference is you can't do anything, like drag to the timeline or scrub, with the names in the library pane, only in the clips pane.
But you're right, that does suggest an improvement over using the folder to reveal the (sub)clips in the clip pane. I could drag the library pane as wide as possible so I can see as much of the 'subclip names'/'keyword collection names' as possible. Then expand the folder I want in the library pane, revealing those names. Then I click on the subclip/keyword I want, which reveals the (sub)clip in the clips pane. I can then drag it to the timeline or scrub it etc there. That's probably also an improvement over expanding the master clip in the clips pane, though still a right hacky pain.
I really don't think that being able to create subclips is an either/or with keywords. They fullfill different needs. Keywords do what they do well, but we still need the ability to create subclips, both from a logical workflow point of view and from a practical point of view, given how inconvenient this hack with keywords is. It should be 5 step process ...
1. You shoot your video, stopping and starting how it suits you at the during the shoot.
2. You import the video.
3. You break it up into clips for editing convenience.
4. You label and group and fine tune those clips with the keywording system.
5. You edit.
The ability to non-hackily do Step 3 is missing in Final Cut Pro X, it seems.

GarageBand 2013 did not split a clip into separate clips.
