Just imported clips and edited as new project. closed imovie. came back later and the entire project was gone. i was not done so i did not finalize it. how do i get the program to keep my project in progress

running imovie on a powermac w 10.6.8. went through the tutorials. imported my clips, got the hang of basic editing, and created a project.
was pretty happy with it, but needed to shut down and come back to work on it later. when i did come back, the entire project was gone.
how do i get the program to save my work in progress, without finalizing it?
thanks

So, everything worked out just fine!
I have all my material in the ProRes Codec on a seperate drive now. The project itself was kept or rather duplicated, the bin structure etc stayed the same but is linking to the newly created files. The playback and workflow is fluent. I am happy!
Time info: For about 120 GB of material the codec change process took 25 hours.
Thanks for your help!

I did a backup from my 3G and want to get the backup now on my iPhone 4, but the backup from the old 3G is not shown as an option to configurate. How do I get the information on my new phone?

I did a backup from my 3G and want to get the backup now on my iPhone 4, but the backup from the old 3G is not shown as an option to configurate. How do I get the information on my new phone?

First, back up your old iphone manually:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your old phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

How to download apps for free again:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
After that, connect your new phone and let iTunes set it up. iTunes will detect the old 3G backup and ask you, if you want to use it to restore the info on your new iphone. If you agree, all settings and data will be present after the process is finished.

Should each person in my house have their own apple id and password?
Can each of the different ID's be linked back to my apple account so that when they purchase apps and music it will be charged to my credit card?

Ask Google... they locked you out of the email account.

A friend of mine sent 2000 texts as a joke. Now my phone reads his phone not as an iPhone. I was able to send iMessages before untill he did his prank. How do I get it back to where we can send iMessages again?

A friend of mine sent 2000 texts as a joke. Now my phone reads his phone not as an iPhone. I was able to send iMessages before untill he did his prank. How do I get it back to where we can send iMessages again?

Firstly, slap your friend across the back of the head. Secondly, Remove his number as "iphone" save the contact.
have him send another iMessage (make sure it sends as iMessage not text) and it should register as his full number (XXX)XXX-XXXX. add that to "existing contact" as iphone, reply as imessage. should work.

I made an iMovie project with a bunch of stills and when I came back later today they had turned black like they weren't there. What's with that? How's the best way to fix it?

I made an iMovie 10.0.4 project with a bunch of stills and when I came back later today they had turned black like they weren't there.
Like this:
When I play them they're black as well.

What's with that? What's the best way to fix it?
Thanks.

Hi
Magic solution - NO
Some thoughts - YES
Is the iPhoto Library still where it was previously (or on external Hard Disk - now turned off) ?
One approach might be to - Repair iPhoto library (but this takes hours - so try below first)
Trouble-shooting guide
When iMovie doesn't work as intended this can be due to a lot of reasons
iMovie Pref files got corrupted - trash it/they and iMovie makes new and error free one's
problem in iMovie Cache folder - trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist
Creating a new User-Account and log into this
This forces iMovie to create all pref. and cache files new and error free
Event or Project got corrupted - try to make a copy and repair
a Codec is used that doesn't work (even though iMovie and/or iDVD tries to / they fail in the end)
version miss match of QuickTime Player / iMovie / iDVD
preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences
other hard disk problem - Repair Hard Disk (Disk Util tool - but start Mac from ext HD or DVD)
External hard disks - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work with Video
( UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most other things - but not for Video )
USB-flash-memories - usually do not work
Net-work connected hard disks - usually do not work (most often not fast enough and WRONGLY FORMATTES as DOS etc)
iPhoto Library got problems - let iPhoto select another one or repair it. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie. When iMovie starts-up it first look trough this iPhoto library and if faulty it all Halt’s.
This You do by
First - close iPhoto
Secondly - on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
Thirdly - now select all five options presented
THEN - WAIT a long long time (>20 hours are not strange)
free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk to low (<1Gb) - I never go under 25Gb free space for SD-Video (4-5 times more for HD)
external devices interferes - turn off Mac - disconnect all of them and - Start up again and re-try
GarageBand fix - start GB - play a few notes - Close it again and now try iMovie
Screen must be set to million-colors
Third-party plug-ins doesn't work OK
Run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac
Let Your Mac be turned on during one night. At about midnight there is a set of maintenance programs that runs and tidying up. This might help
Turn off Your Mac - and disconnect Mains - for about 20-30 minutes - at least this resets the FireWire port.
In QuickTime - DivX, 3ivx codec, Flip4Mac, Perian etc - might be problematic - temporarily move them out and re-try
(I deleted the file "3ivxVideoCodec.component" located in Mac HD/Library/Quicktime and this resolved my issue.)

I solved the problem by removing the file: 3ivxVideoCodec.component. after that, up-dated iMovie runs ok.
Last resort: Trash all of iMovie and re-install it

I need a prior version of firefox...version 1.5 because my payroll department software is not compatible with firefox 6.0... how do I get the other - older - version ??

my payroll department uses eSAP payroll program. It is NOT compatible with your new version...6.0. I need your older version 1.5 so i can access my payroll records. I am currently being forced to use Internet Explorer and I absolutely HATE that software.
please help !!! How do I get the older version? Version 1.5 - thank you.

I would hope the problem is that Firefox 5 is not compatible with some of McAfee's additional add-ons. It will be rather worrying if it has a problem with the McAfee security programs themselves. Please state exactly which software and version you are having problems with.
There are known issues with McAfee's Site Advisor [/questions/839953#answer-205178] but it is hoped McAfee will solve that in a few weeks.

I downloaded the new update, 3.6.7, came back later and a new window with installation wizard popped up. Do I really need to do this as it seems it is already installed?

I was having so many problems with Firefox crashing and it seems like when I downloaded 3.6.7 and executed it that it resolved the issues. Then an installation wizard window appeared about an hour later asking me to install. Do I really need to do this? I am terrified of it crashing again....
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== after dowloading latest update

Hold down the Home and Power button for 20 seconds. And try to update again.

I changed my Appleid online yesterday because the old one was based on an email address that is no longer active. My phone still shows the old Appleid and will not let me access APP store etc. How can I get the phone to accept the new ID?

I channged my Appleid at appleid.com and now the phone stills shows my old id and will not let apps that require id/password prompts work.

Just scroll to the bottom of the screen in the store, log out and then login with the new ID.
As long as you changed it from the manage account option at https://appleid.apple.com/ (ie. replaced the primary email address with a new one), then all your old purchases should be fine.

Lightroom just created a new 2014 folder to receive images from 2014, but I already have a 2014 folder which has received all my previous images. How do I get the system to keep using the original 2014 folder?

How do I route newly created images into my existing folder for 2014? Why did the system create a new folder which seems to be snatching all my new images?

Well, something is not making sense here, and I might have to spend some time thinking about it, or hopefully someone else will know exactly what the issue is.
The first screen capture you provided shows the Lightroom Folder Panel, with folders on the C: drive named 2012, 2013 and 2014 and then the problem second 2014 folder, followed by many folders whose name begins with "My Canon".
The most recent screen capture you provided shows the C: drive problem 2014 folder, but none of those other folders!
Can you show us a screen capture of your Windows Explorer C: drive folders? Particularly, can you expand the folder structure so that it shows where the 2012 and 2013 and original 2014 folders and the problem 2014 folder are located? If that takes 2 or more screen captures, that's fine. ALso, if you can show the "My Canon" folders, please do.

Peirce College will not recognize FF-v4, only v3.6. How can I get the older v3.6 for my new HP Dv6 I am using for school now. My G60 worked well with the v3.6.1.

This weekend I changed over from my HP-G60 which ran on Vista with Firefox 3.6.1 and my connection to Peirce College in Philadelphia was recognized and supported. They do not, as yet, support the 4.0 version. I downloaded your 4.0 this morning onto my new HP-Dv6, but I cannot use your browser to get to my classes online because they don't support the 4.0 version. It will only work if I use Internet Explorer 7 or 8. I need your version 3.6.1 to be made available to me, so I can continue on with my studies. A little background here...I am a baby boomer who is working on his bachelor degree in IT Networking Security. Please respond as soon as you can. Thank You, Ken DeWitt.

Here it is:

When you uninstall FF 4, do not select the option "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

I want to put a movie on my iPod, but when I try it says that I am not authorized for it on this computer. How do I get the movie on my iPod?

I can put music on it just fine. I don't understand.

Authorize that computer in the Store menu of iTunes. If it's a rented movie and you've already authorized a different computer for it, go to that computer.
