Moving a print project from one computer to another

Why does Apple not design the software where you could work on a project on Multiple apple devices.  You would think with the Cloud the database could reside the and then work on it from any mac you own. 
Please tell me I am wrong and you can move a print project (Book , Calendar) from one Mac to another without moving a whole library.

What App is it?
If iPhoto I thought that was what iCloud was all about???

  • Moved iMovie 09 project from one computer to another - now timing is wrong!

    Hello,
    I wanted to copy some Events and Projects from my Dad's older MacBook Pro to my iMac. So I just copied the event folders (from <Home Directory>/Movies/iMovie Events/) and the project files (from <Home Directory>/Movies/iMovie Projects/) to the corresponding folders on my iMac.
    I then opened up iMovie on my iMac and saw that the Events and Projects were there. So far, so good.
    The first problem I noticed was when I exported one of the projects from my iMac using QuickTime. The duration of the resulting .MOV file was about 30 seconds shorter than the duration of the project!
    I watched the Project in iMovie, and found that the clips in the Project were 'cut off'. For example, the clip in the Project would say it was 10 seconds long, but when you played the Project the clip was only 7 seconds long.
    How could this be? Is the speed of the Project somehow tied to the computer that created the project? i.e. perhaps the speed of the processor could impact this? I highly doubt it, as it would make it impossible to move projects from one computer to another.
    Bottom line - the identical Project file on my iMac (with the same underlying events) will produce a different exported movie file than the exact same Project file on my Dad's laptop. Specifically, my version will be shorter and the clips will be cut off.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated....

    The macrumours link just telss you how to move the events which is relatively straightforward.
    Alot of advice just seems to rest with leave the projects on your internal drive as they don't take up much space.
    However, http://karsten.schluter.googlepages.com/im08tricks has a description of how to move the projects and then 'fool' imovie into where the projects are stored.
    Not very flexible but it does allow you to 'clear' your macbook yet when you restore the sym-link file to the right place and restart imovie you can reconnect to all your old projects and events without yellow triangles of death appearing.
    By the by apple needs to sort this out as archiving old projects and events together and preserve the editing is a really basic requirment I think.
    PS anyone found out how to merge projects yet? Another basic function that seems to be lacking.

  • Moving an iWeb project from one computer to another

    An iWeb web-site project I have been working on for years needs to be moved from one computer to another. The iWeb project currently resides in iWeb 2 on a G4 iMac running MacOS 10.4.11. I'd like to move it to my MacBook Pro so I have access to iLife 2009. What steps do I need to take to complete the transfer?

  • Moving and Exiting Project from one computer to another

    I started working on a project on my Mini and I want to continue and work with it on the MacBook Pro. How do I move the already edited images as a project with all the corrections to the other computer. When I move the hard drive over to the new computer and import only the master images are imported? I would like to continue with the changes I have already made.

    easy ...
    export the project from aperture ... transfer said project to MBP and import it or drag it into the aperture window ...

  • Moving my FCP project from one computer to another

    I would like to break down a load of footage into subclips on my laptop (footage on external drive) and then move everything to
    my desktop (and a different external hard drive).
    I know I can transfer the FCP file to computer No2 along with the original downloads to external HD No 2, but is there a way for me to do that without having to reconnect each subclip one at a time?
    Please let me know if there is a workflow that I can use, so that i don't have to reconnect each subclip one at a time.
    Thanks
    mp

    If you copy everything to HD No2, but give HD No2 exactly the same name and folder structure as HD No1, then FCP just accepts it as the same drive and will work without the need for reconnecting anything.

  • What is the easiest way to transfer a large imovie project from one computer to another in a different location.

    What is the easiest way to transfer an faairly large HD imovie project from one computer to another in a different location. Can you export to drop box? Will the other computer need the exact imovie version?

    OK it depends.
    If you have a finished movie, you can SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE and create your final movie. Then, depending on the size of the finished movie, you can transfer via dropbox or similar service. Ninety minutes is a very long movie for iMovie, but it may work for you. I would suggest 720P to keep the size down.
    If you need to transfer the entire iMovie Project so it can be edited in iMovie at the other end, then you need to transfer the project and event assets to an external hard drive and get the hard drive to the other location.
    Directions are here. Follow the directions for 1) Moving or copying Project to external drive. Then 2) Consolidate Media.

  • Need help coping project from one computer to another.

    I need help coping project from one computer to another.  I loaded all video on computer 1, copied events and project folder to computer 2.  I was told I only needed to copy the project folder back to computer 1 since the events folder is already there.   I copied project folder back to computer 1 but the files wont open.  I dont have computer 2 available. 
    Please help!!!

    Hi
    No that's not the way to do it - iMovie gets confused and in some cases the problems might be un-repairable.
    You've got several problems
    • iMovie'08 - CAN NOT MOVE PROJCTS - You NEED iMovie'09 or iMovie'11 - I see no other working solution
    • Never MOVE or alter any folder named
    iMovie Projects - or -
    iMovie Events
    on DeskTop/Finder - This might be very harmful
    • Moving (Projects) and Events - HAS TO be done within the iMovie Application.
    You've got an Evets window and here You can view Your Events in two ways - Yearly - or - Yearly per Hard disk
    Here You can move within this "window" to another location
    • Projects - NO they do not contain Your full movie - only a document on howto use the material in Event folder
    and there might be worse if You added Photos from iPhoto and Audio from iTunes/Garageband - then You have
    to get this over to the second Mac too, to be able to continue editing.
    So to move Your projects to another Mac You need
    • iMovie'09 or 11
    • an external hard disk -
    MUST BE Mac OS Extended formatted - as UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange will not work for VIDEO
    Should be a FireWire one - as UBS/UBS2 performs badly when used for video
    • Then move/copy over within Project resp Events window in iMovie Application
    Hopefully I've been not to confusing or badly structured to be followed.
    Yours Bengt W

  • How to move iMovie project from one computer to another

    I have been working on an iMovie 09 project on my desktop at home.
    Now I want to work on the same project on my computer at work.
    How can I move the project from one computer to another?   What I've already tried was to make a duplicate copy of the project and then use a thumb drive to move that to another computer.   It didn't work.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello James Snedeker,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to move a file to another disk. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    iMovie: How to Save Projects to Another Hard Disk
    To copy an iMovie project to another disk:
    1. Quit iMovie if it is open. 
    2. Locate the project folder in the Finder.
    3. Drag the project folder to the other disk.
    Note: You must move the complete project folder, intact, to the other disk in order to successfully copy the project. The project folder has the same name as the project listed in the iMovie window. This folder includes the iMovie project file, as well as a Media folder, which contains all of the clips associated with this project. If you don't copy all of these items, the project may no longer be readable in iMovie.
    Once you have copied the project, try opening it in iMovie to ensure that it copied to the other disk successfully.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • HT201109 Why can't I open a final cut project from one computer in another computer?

  • Transfer iMovie 08 Project from one computer to another

    I created an iMovie 08 project on my macbook pro. The footage came from a digital still camera on video mode as opposed to a video recorder.
    I then attempted to transfer the iMovie project to my iMac which I use to sync with my Apple TV.
    I transferred the file over my airport extreme network, and moved the file into the iMovie projects folder in my movie folder in my home folder.
    It shows up as a project, but does not play. All I see in the window is black screen.
    I even imported the raw footage into the iMac so that there was some data there.
    My question is whether there is a way to transfer an iMovie project in iMovie 08 from one computer to another.
    Thanks.

  • Transferring an iMovie project from one computer to another

    I have an iMac with some iMovie projects that I want to work on through my MBP.
    What is the best way of doing this?
    Drop Box doesn't seem to be the way. Migration Assistant is an option I suppose but all I want to do is to be able to work on a project back and forth from one computer to another. Is this possible?

    use any kind of drive thats big enough to hold the data your imovie projects are stored in account>movies>imovie projects

  • Moving Events and Projects from one location to another on the same hard drive.

    Hello.
    I've searched in the FCP X User Manual, on this forum and in Google, but have found no explanation of how to do this, so I'm posting this here in hopes that someone in our community will be able to help.
    I've previously stored my FCP X Events and Projects folders on an external 3TB hard drive, because there is more room on it than on the internal 1TB hard drive, but, since then, I've worked with other media apps, for video, photography and audio, the files for which are also stored on the external hard drive, and this has created a bit of clutter with no folder structure to keep it tidy.
    I like an organised file structure on my system, to keep it uncluttered, easy to navigate and efficient to use, so I put all the files for my photography, video and audio apps into their own folders, which are, in turn, stored in their appropriate folders for Audio, Photography and Video, and those three folders are stored in a folder called Media, and then I directed each app to its own files.
    The only app with which this has been a problem is FCP X. While there is a way of relocating projects and events from within FCP X, it allows the user to move them from one hard drive to another, and not, as I want, from one place to another on the same hard drive.
    I'm not sure if it matters, but perhaps it's relevant to mention before the next paragraph that the files that had previously been imported as events are, to save hard-drive space, stored in the events folder as shortcuts to the original files, which are stored elsewhere on the drive, rather than as duplicates of those files.
    In Finder, I copied the Events and Projects folders to their intended new locations and tried in the app to link the events and projects to their new Finder location. It seemed to have worked, until I moved the original folders to the Trash. On re-opening FCP X, it was clear that the linking hadn't worked. I returned the original folders from the Trash to their original location, but that didn't entirely reverse the problem. I noticed also that, in the original and duplicated Events folders, the shortcuts had lost their links to the original files stored elswehere on the drive.
    Fortunately I had run a backup before starting, so I restored the original folders and the app from the backup, and all was back to normal.
    I'd be grateful if anyone could advise me on whether or not it's possible to move FCP X events and projects from one place to another on the same hard drive with the app's compliance.
    Thank you.

  • How do i migrate all my imovie projects from one computer to another

    how do i migrate all my imovie projects from one computer to another

    You need to attach the computers to one another say with a firewire cable? Or use an external hard drive to copy the Events/Projects and then move the hard drive to the other computer. Are you able to do either one of these first?

  • Question about moving all iTunes data from one computer to another.

    I have a Windows XP. Now I have a windows 7. All of the songs from the XP are available on the new computer via a Z drive. But when I plug my iPod into the new computer it says that it is registered with a different library and asks me if I want to delete all the songs and apps and replace them from the ones on the new library. I don't want that to happen. And all of the apps on the old computer aren't available on the new one. How do I get the apps from one computer to another, and how do I sync my iPod on the new computer without erasing all high scores, app data, songs, and other information? And how do I get a song fro the new computer back to the old one?
    Devin

    This is the way I would normally recommend that you migrate your library from one computer to another.
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    If you have content on the new computer that you want to add to the library on the old one then copy that across via network/memory stick etc. before attempting to migrate the library again.
