IMovie '13: Import window does not open

I can't get the Import Window to open. (Sure it worked the first time I tried)
Anyone with same problem?
Anyone with a possible solution?
No matter if I press Import in the toolbar or use the menu (cmd I) the main window will dim, but the overlaying Import Window will not open.
After that I can only quit the program. I can drag and drop movie files without problems.
The only way the Import Window will open is to attach my camera. The Import Window will open automatically when iMovie sees the drive.
I have tried to re-install iMovie and deleted preference files, but with no succes so far.

I managed to locate the problem
I have an Elgato EyeTV 610. It is an old DVB-C TV Tuner hooked up on Firewire.
When I remove the EyeTV 610 from the Firewireport it works fine.
As mentioned in my first posting I was able to have the import window pop up by attaching my camera.
The workaround also works when pluggin in my iPhone (Import window pops up automatically)

  • After connecting my Sony camcorder to imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video the import window does not open. I have imported videos from the sam camcorder successfully before. What could have happened? Puzzled)

    After connecting my Sony camcorder to Imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video to imovie 09 the import window does not open. In the past I have successfully imported videos from the same camcorder. What could have happened? Puzzled

    Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but  maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
    But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
    Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
    Thank you so much for  beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message  that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
    So your kindness is very much appreciated.

  • Elements Organizer 13.  The program primary window does not open.

    Good afternoon. I installed Elements Organizer. The first some times it has opened correctly and I managed to transfer all photos. But now the program primary window does not open. In dock the active icon appears, in the left top corner there is a name of the program and having clicked with its right mouse button it is possible to open options. What to do in such situation? Photoshop Elements 13 works correctly, but it is very inconvenient to search for photos.

    Hi Stephen,
    What version of MS Office are you using?
    Are you facing the issue similar to that mentioned here: Acrobat/Reader: Attach to Email button not working for PDFs referenced from long URLs
    Open Acrobat. Use the click-path Edit - Preferences - select the Category "Email Accounts". In the dialog there is the "Add Account" drop-down. Select "Add Other". The "Add Webmail Account" dialog presents. You'll fill out the dialog's fields with Outlook.com settings. (don't forget the "Advance Settings" button)
    From a look-see on the web it appears that the following are the needed settings. BUT, you'll be wanting to validate.
    The Outlook.com SMTP server settings for sending outgoing messages from an email program on desktop, cell phone or mobile device are:
    • Outlook.com SMTP server address: smtp.live.com
    • Outlook.com SMTP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
    • Outlook.com SMTP password': Your Outlook.com password
    • Outlook.com SMTP port: 587
    • Outlook.com SMTP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes
    For incoming messages from an Outlook.com account to an email program using POP, use the Windows Live Hotmail POP3 server settings.
    The Outlook.com POP server settings for downloading new incoming messages to email program, cell phone or mobile device are:
    • Outlook.com POP server address: pop3.live.com
    • Outlook.com POP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
    • Outlook.com POP password: Your Outlook.com password
    • Outlook.com POP port: 995
    • Outlook.com POP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes

  • Cmd.exe window does not open in apache jserv

    cmd.exe window does not open in apache jserv
    I need to call a dos program from a servlet running on apache jserv1.1.
    I develop with Jdeveloper wich has got a built in webserver to debug servlets.
    With Jdeveloper it works fine (a dos windows opens), but when I deploy it to apache it doesn't work. The process is started, but no dos window opens. Should I change settings of jserv, is this a bug, does anyone know?
    The (beta) code looks like this
    String cmd = "c:\\temp\\cmd.exe /c \"start /min /wait /b dosprogram \"";
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
    BufferedReader lsOut = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader (p.getInputStream()));
    BufferedReader lsErr = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader (p.getErrorStream()));
    try {
    p.waitFor();
    int completionStatus = p.exitValue();
    out.println( "<br>Exit Status: " + completionStatus );
    catch( InterruptedException ex ) {
    out.println( "Executable program (" + cmd + ") was interrupted." );
    while(( line=lsOut.readLine()) != null) {
    out.println("<br>lsout====>");
    out.println(line);
    while ((line2 = lsErr.readLine()) != null){
    out.println("<br>Errout====>");
    out.println(line2);
    catch(SecurityException e) {
    out.println("Security Error: " + e);
    catch(IOException e) {
    out.println("IO Error: " + e);
    catch (Exception e) {
    out.println("ls error " +e);
    null

    Is apache running as a service?

    Hi friends,
    I have the same problem.
    Mountain Lion + Office 2011 + Safari 6.1.2 (8537.74.9)
    It is not clear to me what is the relation between Safari and this problem.
    I have Chrome installed as well and it is set as default browser. Is this involved?
    If yes how can I solve the problem?
    Please let me know.
    Many thanks.

    Also, When did this issue happened? if recently, you can try to restore system back to the point when it work fine.
    Since this issue can be caused by corrupted system files or components, rung following command one by one to scan your system, any error, post back the cbs.log:

  • A new window does not open when I click on the new tab "plus" sign. How do I fix this?

    A new window does not open when I click on the new tab "plus" sign. How do I fix this?

    Try uninstalling the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

  • My import window does not allow me to pick the "move" option. How do I access it?

    My import window does not allow me to pick the "move" option. How do I access it?

    Because Adobe has taken the stance, within Lightroom, that it will not touch files on card. Your card serves as a fail-safe backup in the event of disaster.
    Ejecting a card has no effect on your images and is allowed so that you can removed the card without intervention of the OS.
    After you've ensured image fidelity and backup, accepted best practice is to reformat your card in-camera.  Trust me, I don't want to be on this forum answering questions about why someone lost their files because they "moved" them. This has been debated many times on the forum.

  • Grey Window - Does not open after Running a Form

    Hello!
    I have the following problem:
    I just installed Oracle 9i-Developer Suite.
    After installing it, I wanted to run a form (also made in Forms 9i).
    So, I selected one form , connected to the database and Run it.
    The first time, a dialog appeared informing me i need to instal Jinitiator1.3.1.9.
    So, I installed JInitiator and Run the form again.
    The result is that it does not open. It seems to be blocked.A grey window apppears and that is all. After some minutes (about 30 minutes after), 2 error messages appear:
    1.FRM-92101 : A Failure has occured on the Server. you will need to reestablish your session.
    2.FRM-92050 : Failed to connect to the Server. /forms 90/190servlet -1
    Please tell me what to do next to run this form (or any other form).
    If an aplication is runned, and it uses Jinitiator 1.3.1.13 everything seems to be ok.

    If you are getting the applet background (usually gray or tan colored), it means the http listener (oc4j) is likely already running. This is confirmed by the request to install jinitiator. If the listener was not running, neither of these events would occur.
    Before going to far, I have to ask.... do you know how old 9i is? Also, "9i" could possibly be one of two versions 9iR1 = Forms 6.0.8 and 9iR2 = Forms 9.0.2. Both of these versions were desupported long ago. This is important to know for several reasons.
    1. Even if you actually have a valid support contract with Oracle, they will not be able to offer much assistance as Support is not able to report new bugs against these versions and in some cases, can no longer refer you to documentation as some of it has already been obsoleted.
    2. Because these versions are so old, they will not likely run on newer operating systems. For example if you are using Vista, Win7, Win2008, etc, Jinitiator will not run on these platforms. Since neither of these Forms versions was certified for use with any of the JRE versions that were supported on these newer operating systems, the only solution that makes sense would be to upgrade the Forms version.
    Apparently, you partially see the problem as you indicated that it works when using JInit 1.3.1.13. Even this version is very old. In general, Jinitiator is no longer supported either, but the latest and last version is 1.3.1.30. So you can see that the latest version is many releases newer than .13. If you are not using one of the platforms I mentioned above, you may have more luck with a newer jinit version. You can download 1.3.1.30 from MyOracleSupport using Patch ID 7410076. If you do not have access to MOS, you may be temporarily out of luck as these files are currently not available on OTN although may return once the recent migration has been completed.
    Regarding the errors you noted:
    FRM-92101 generally indicates that the runtime (ifweb90.exe) was not able to start or crashed after it was started.
    FRM-92050 generally means there was a problem with the url or the related session ID or header info. This can occur if your machine is not properly configured in DNS, as well as many other possible causes. Assuming you are using the Forms Builder to run your forms, try changing the url from the host name to "localhost". In other words:
    http://localhost:<port number>/forms90/f90servlet
    Regardless, upgrading will be you first best action.

  • Mail Viewer Window Does Not Open on Launch. Mail Will Not Quit. MAIL BADGER

    <UPDATE> After detailing all of the problems below, I discovered that trashing the Mail Badger bundle solved all of the below problems. I am still posting this just in case anybody else has this problem.
    Problems:
    1. When opening mail.app, the program opens, but it does not launch a Viewer Window. I can open a viewer window manually from the File menu, however.
    2. When quitting mail.app, it will not quit. It does not matter whether I hit command-Q, or Mail>Quit Mail, or right-click on dock icon and click Quit. The only way for me to quit is Force Quit. No matter what Quit command I execute, nothing happens. The Viewer Window does not close. (The Viewer Window will close on command, however, either by clicking the red 'x' or by command-W, or by File>Close.
    3. Cannot send mail from mail.app. Upon clicking "send" on a new email, it just goes to the Outbox and sits there forever. I can try sending the email again from the Outbox, but nothing happens. (I have 4 gmail accounts, with a couple thousand messages between them. There are no problems with port configurations or smtp servers or anything like that - I am fairly certain anyway because nothing has changed w/ regard to the account settings between the time it was working and the time it stopped working.)
    4. After minimizing the Viewer Window, clicking on the mail.app dock icon does not restore the Viewer Window. The only way to restore the Viewer Window is to click on the Viewer window itself in the dock, rather than clicking on the application icon.
    Notes: I have installed 10.4.10. I have also installed Safari Beta 3.0.2
    I previously installed Safari Beta 3.0, then uninstalled it and upgraded to 3.0.2. I don't recall when the problems started, (under 3.0 or 3.0.2), but they all happened at the same time (rather than one at a time).
    I have uninstalled Safari 3 and reverted to Safari 2, but this does not fix the problems.
    I have repaired disk permissions.
    I have booted from the OS X Install disk and repaired my startup disk.
    I have not had any problems with Safari 3 "hanging" on install, thus corrupting the WebKit, as described in other threads.

    I had the same issue and resolution. Spotlight search for "Mail Badger" and deleting everything resolves the issue.
    I'm also running Safari 3.0.2 and 10.4.10...
    I've emailed the developer to let him know about it..
