Is there a way to lock or secure imovie and its files

Hello and as always thanks for all the help in my previous posts.
I frequently review and edit video that needs to remain secure during the editing process.
Before I import it and when I'm done with a project I can secure it in several ways, but while working on it in imovie its wide open to anyone who opens the app. My mac is under my control, but life goes on around my work and my Mac is used for other things as well.
Is there a way to either lock imovie so it can't be opened without a password and is there a way to hide/secure the folders the program uses?
thanks in advance.
Marc

The default location for your iMovie files is in your User account (the icon with the house on it).
Other users of the machine should have their own User account (guest user) and they will not have access to your files but can continue to use iMovie.

  • I really want to update my iMovie, but I guess I need to update a lot of things first, which costs a lot of money. Is there any way I can just update iMovie and nothing else?

    - If you have a 1G ipod you can't update past 3.1.3.  To identify yourd see:
    Identifying iPod models
    - Be aware that if you can/do update the iOS to the latest (4.2.1 for a 2G and 4.3.4 for a 3G) you may not be able to sync to the old computer since that computer will need the latest iTunes to see/sync with the update iPod.  Yo need an Max with at least OSX 10.5.8.
    You can transfer iTunes purchases from the iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    You can use on of the third-party programs dicussed here to transfer other stuff:
    new PC: Apple Support Communities
    Unless you can move/copy the iPod backup file to the new computer you will loose all app data and restore from that backup. That file is located:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Is there any way to get the security tab to show when going to a website as in previous versions of firefox?

    Before I updated to Firefox 4, I used to be able to see the security bar on the bottom right telling me whether it was secure (x-d out in red or not) before I logged into a site, purchased something, etc. I know the bottom tab has been brought to the top but I no longer see that bar/icon which bother me. Is there any way to get that security tab (that little gold lock symbol) to show again for every website?

    The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button
    If you want a padlock, you can use the Padlock add-on in conjunction with the site identity button - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon/

  • I have a teenager that has learned how to delete his history, is there a way to lock the history to where I can monitor the sites he visits without setting up parental control program on the computer?

    I have a teenager that has learned how to delete his history, is there a way to lock the history to where I can monitor the sites he visits without setting up parental control program on the computer?

    Use security software or a router with a build-in password protected logging feature if you want to keep a record of visited websites.<br />
    You can't prevent people from deleting the history and other personal (private) data in Firefox and a log elsewhere will always work even if other browser would be used.

  • Is there a way to lock the phone's touch screen during a phone call?

    I just purhased my iPhone and I noticed that during a phone call I may accidentally tap Mute or Speakerphone with my cheak, depending on which hand I hold the phone in. Also when I hand the phone over to someone they may accidentally tap a button, and in the worst scenerios they will accidentally end the call.
    Is there a way to lock the screen or something to prevent any of the above from occuring?

    Their currently isent a way to disable the buttons but what you can do is click the home button during a call after pressing loud speaker and that will separate you from the call options and take you to the home screen and on the top it will have say call active and you can click that to renter the call note the call will still be active but when you hold it next to your face the screen should temporally go dark. Steve jobs was the one who came up with when the top sensor is active the screen will go dark and disable on screen button pressing when it is press against your face

  • Is there a way of locking app folders in iphone?

    I have found a lot of app fro locking pictures and files, contacts, etc, Is there a way of locking down a folder that contains apps? Say i don't want someone opening my facebook app or other apps I have. Any help is appreciated.

    Unless the app has some sort of passcode written into it, no, you can't lock it. You can't lock folders.
    If you don't want someone using your Facebook app, you can log out of it.

  • Is there a way of locking a word document in ios mountain lion so that it cant be printed or changed?

    Is there a way of locking a word document in mountain lion so it cant be printed or changed?

    You can print because it's your document. Others shouldn't be able to. But then it's easy enough to unlock them altogether.
    Easiest is to get encryption software and just encrypt the document. Or create a small encrypted disc image with Disk Utility and store the document in the disc image.

    Is there a way to lock my MAC so it can't be opened without a special password?

    Choose the apple menu, apple in the upper left corner, then System Preferences > Users and Groups icon, for the admin account that you should be in, add a password if there is none, then under the left panel, click the + to add accounts.  Choose Standard and enter a user name for yourself, different from the admin name, type a password in the password box.  Click create user.
    Add as many user accounts as you want, each with a separate password.

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

  • Is There A Way To LOCK Items To The Dock (to prevent accidental drag off)

    Is there a way to lock items to the dock to prevent accidentally dragging them off? Every now and then, I'll accidentally drag something I just meant to click (really, I click too hard while moving my mouse) and I'll see a POOF as the icon disappears... which means I have to dig for it in the finder and replace it. D'oh!

    run the following terminal command
    defaults write com.apple.dock contents-immutable -bool true; killall Dock
    to unlock it change true to false in the command.

  • Is there a way too lock the iphone history on safari

    my history keeps getting erased and i dont know whos doing it i wanna know if theres a way to lock the clear history button

    No.
    Unless you or someone else using the phone is clearing the history, resting data, or restoring the phone, the Safari history doesn't get deleted. If someone else may be doing this, you can enable a restriction on Safari:
    Settings > General > Restrictions > Enable Restrictions > Safari > On
