I was working on a project a few days ago and now I'm not getting any audio or visuals out of it. In the project file the screen went grey. Not sure how to fix this. I'm new to iMovie, but the program seems easy to use and my Mac is new. Any help?

I used to use Movie Maker and it would be able to handle lots of file uploads and big projects. I figure iMovie can do the same since it's newer and it's on my iMac. I was working on a project for a few months, it was working fine up until about a few days ago when the project file just stopped working. Not getting any audio or visuals and the screen went grey. I hope to not lose the project file as I've spent a lot of time on it. The project will still show up in iMovie, but it won't play. Other project files will, but this one won't for some reason. It's my first time using this program and I assumed it would be fine, but now it's causing me big problems. Anyone else run into a similar problem?

But it is I jsut can sync, back up files, or anything becuase its stuck at this screene and wont do execute when i click either of those button

  • I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this.

    I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this. I only have the one Apple ID and the phone is brand new, purchased directly from Apple.
    When I check on the phone itself (iCloud and App Store settings) the Apple ID is correct. I'm not sure where else to check.
    Whilst setting up the phone, it prompted me to register, which I did. Then when connecting to my laptop through iTunes it prompted me again so I registered again. I even got a confirmation email to the email address associated with my Apple ID that the registration was successful.
    How can I add my iPhone 5s to the list of devices on the correct Apple ID?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Hi jodilynnf,
    When using Connection Doctor to see what is could be causing the issue, look for the red dots to let you know what is wrong. Then all you have to do is correct that information. You can double click on the section that is giving you issue and it will take you there. Most issues could be just password being entered incorrectly. Take a look at the article below to walk you through troubleshooting issues with Mail.

  • I'm not sure how to fix this problem?

    I made my original Apple ID a long time ago, and basically, the e-mail account I had used it with was deleted.  I've made a new Apple ID since.  My i-pod is still connected to the old ID, and I'm not sure how to change it.  I also don't remember the information I had used for the original ID.  My i-pod won't transfer all of my music unless I "authorize the computer" and I can't do that with my new ID becuause it "hasn't been used with the computer" yet.  I have no idea what to do now.  Please help?

  • When I try and open certain apps, it flickers and doesn't open, I am not sure how to fix this.

    When I try and open open a certain app,it won't open and just flickers and won't do anything, does anyone know how to fix this ?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'.  Not sure how to fix this.

    When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'.
    I'm not sure what to do, I did not recieve a cd with my mac to boot it up (I ordered it online).
    Also I can't find my harware serial number (I've tried many times to input what I thought it may be from my receipt).  I saw that I need this number to contact apple support, my 90 day complimentary support is still valid so I wish to contact them.
    I don't know much about apple products as this is my first apple computer so any information is helpful.

    Hold down the Alt/Option-key at startup of your iMac to get the Boot Selection screen.
    From that choose to boot into OSX.
    Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and reset your OSX to be the default.
    The new iMacs have OSX 10.7 Lion preinstalled and don't come with any CD/DVD anymore.
    Instead OSX Lion includes a new feature called "Lion Recovery".

  • Preview can no longer see my Canon MP540 scanner, though it had been working normally up to a few days ago.

    I am unable to scan from 'Preview'  to my Canon MP540 printer, though scanning does work using the Canon solutions menu.  'Preview' was working normally up to a few days ago and I do not understand why the 'import from scanner' option is no longer available.  Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Most computers with front and back Firewire and indeed USB ports have different controllers for them inside.
    A look in the system Preferences should confirm this (Listed as Buses at least)
    My USB layout
    Often Shutting down the computer with all periferals unplugged (cable wise) and waiting 15 minutes will get the ports and controllers to reset.
    It may pay to try this.
    Where the App is should not matter in this context.  (It does for Updating purposes)
    Is this a camera that can play back other media/Devices and convert it in to DV for onward Firewire connection to the computer ?
    Sometime they store in one format and can output in another. This allows them to act as DV converters.
    This may bear some impact on the settings on the camera.
    You said the Computer has 400/800 ports.
    Do you mean it has one of each ?
    Or do you mean you are using an Adapter and running some devices at 400 and some at 800 ?
    It is likely that the camera is neither (System Profiler should tell you)
    You seem to be clearly saying nothing has changed from when it worked
    I am just exploring ideas.
    Is there any chance the Scratch disk is nearly full and is sending lots of data back and forth to see what it can drop/lose?
    Has the app that uses it been shut down recently.
    Have you increased the number of Undos that it can do ? (This will store more Scratch data)
    Have you stored anything else on that disk that is in use or takes up a large portion of the space ?

  • Weird problem with ipod...not sure how to fix

    My ipod was filled to the max...like 950 songs and i couldnt fit anymore. i had it on set up mannually, but one day when i plugged it in to my computer it acted as if it was a new ipod and switched to "update automatically." Then it updated by deleting all my songs i didnt have saved onto the library before i could stop it. now ive reimported all my cds, but it will only hold 500 songs and says its full. They are all the same songs so it cant really be full. I'm not sure how to fix this. Please let me know if you know how to fix it. Thanks

    "Stupid" Eclipse+Maven refuse to compile this legacy code.It's an Eclipse error, not a Java/compiler error as such. To fix it, I believe you have to check your plug-in configuration -- imported packages here or exported packages there. Try adding "com.sun.image.codec.jpeg" to the imported packages. Something along those lines. Anyway, bottom line: this is not an issue with the code.

  • I have lost nearly all my photos and events.  I received a message effectively saying that I need to upgrade from an old base.  I think I may have tried to open an event that was stored in iPhoto Buddy a few days ago.

    I have lost nearly all my photos and events.  I received a message effectively saying that I need to upgrade from an old base.  I think I may have tried to open an event that was stored in iPhoto Buddy a few days ago.  iPhoto Buddy is not supported in Lion.  How can I retrieve my phjotos?

    What version of iPhoto?
    Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

    Thanks for this post. It corrected my similar issue. Note that you need to exit from/re-enter iTunes after deleting the song from your Purchased list.

  • So a number of my apps (ie., United, ES File Explorer, etc..), which worked a few days ago, are now crashing on start-up or shortly thereafter. Have you recorded this bug and is a fix forthcoming?  Anxiously awaiting an update.

    There are a number of threads about this issue on the forum if you want to do a search.  Basically, you need to uninstall the latest update to Android System Webview:
