Need help adding music to Imovie.

I've been working on a slide show in Imovie and importing music I've purchased at Itunes. I find some of the songs need to be shortened to work with the amount of pictures I have. What I did was purchase a song at Itunes, burned this song to a CD, then saved it back to my hard disk to work on it in Jasmine- an audio editing program. I was told this was the way to do it in the Itunes discussion group. When I save it out of Jasmine after shortening it, I saved it as an AIFF file. I then tried to bring it into Imovie, but the program doesn't seem to allow me to do it. Am I going about this all wrong? Is the a simpler way to do this?

Hi!
Jasmine- an audio editing program. I was told this was the way to do it in the Itunes discussion group.
I am sure that everyone in the itunes discussion group gives very good advice. However, have you tried simply importing the burned song to imovie and
i then
editing it by splitting and deleting or by direct trimming?

  • Need Help Adding Music to Slide Show - PS Elements 11

    I am using PS Elements 11 to create a slide show. The photos and transitions are complete. But when I try to add music in an mp3 format, the songs are there but the text for the songs does not appear in the bar below the photos in the slide show review mode. All I can see is a fuzzy gray line. I need to see the text for the songs so I can trim and reorder the songs. I have tried to create a new slide show with new music but the music area is also fuzzy. Texts appeared one time but no longer. Please help! Need for Wed.!!!!

    Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
    I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
    A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
    You can try to borrow and  use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
    Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

  • Need help adding music to Zen Nano P

    I just purchased it a few days ago. Initially, I downloaded 30 songs. When I tried to add more music a day later, it didn't happen. The player still said I was at 30 songs, although when I clicked on check the device,all the music is there. So where was it on the player?I ended up deleting all, and starting again... I downloaded all of the music together. It's on the player.But once it's downloaded, I can't add to it. What am I doing wrong?My cheap,little?Sansa Disk was so much easier, lol. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Need help adding video to Imovie 4.0

    I recently paid a company to convert a VHS tape of home movies to a DVD. I find that I can easily make copies of the DVD, but can't seem to bring it into IMovie. Is it possible to use portions of the DVD, or do I need special software or do I have to convert these files somehow? The files on the DVD have: .IFO, .VOB, and .BUP extensions, if that means anything.

    * DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
    * Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
    * Cinematize >60$
    * Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
    * Toast6/7 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
    * connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter

  • Need help adding schedule to xcode 4

    I need help adding a tour schedule for an iphone app building an app for 13 djs and they want thier tour schedules added these need to be updated monthly is there a way to add this????

    I don't know if this is the easiest way but it works for me. I connect the DVD player to my camcorder (so it's the 3 plugs yellow/red/white on one end and a single jack into the camera). Then I connect my camcorder to the computer (I think it's through a firewire port). Then I just play the DVD and the footage is digitized via the camcorder and I import it into iMovie 4 as it's playing. I believe the camcorder is just in VCR mode.
    I have also used this method to transfer VHS tapes onto DVDs via the camera by connecting the VCR to the camera.
    I haven't had much luck with movies over about 40 minutes on iMovie. But if it's home movies, there may be a logical break. Do maybe 20 minute segments (it's also really easy on iMovie to add a soundtrack if these are OLD films with no sound.
    As you can see, I'm low tech!
    Good luck!

  • *** Need help recovering music on iPod/iTunes ***

    * Need help recovering music on iPod/iTunes *
    I bought my iPod 30G when it first came out back in the day. With the protective case it looks like a Walkman, if you know what that is. The new ones are half the thickness of my old skool one. lol!
    Anyway, years ago I accidently uploaded a virus in both my PC and laptop. Yeah, real *******. Well, the person who restored my computers couldn't save my music. I still have the iPod but my library on iTunes is gone. If I try to update my iPod in either computer it will erase every song I have on it and only upload the songs/album I'm trying to add. I'm told that this is something Apple did to prevent file sharing, blah, blah, blah...
    Does anyone know a way around it? I keep buying CDs just not able to load them into my iPod thru iTunes.

    Hello yourantihero,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There are several ways you can pull the music off your iPod and onto iTunes. The first link below provides step-by-step instructions for the direct method if you have a PC as well as a few third party applications (for both the Mac and PC) if you choose to go that route instead. You can also do a simple Google search for "copy music from iPod to computer" and you should receive a number of sites that can help you out.
    Just make sure that when you have your iPod plugged into your computer, that you don't hit "Erase and Sync" before completing the task of copying your music over.
    Also, if you have any purchased music, you will probably have to re-authorize your computer by heading to the Store drop down menu and choosing "Authorize computer."

  • I have a godaddy website with a welcome page- I need help adding a few additional pages with a hyperlink to my welcome page.

    I need help attaching a few hyperlinks my godaddy welcome page. I have 2 more ipages articles, I also converted them to pdf. Godaddy only helped (last year) with the 1st article.  I do not know how to attach a hyperlink to the artlcles and add the hyperlinks to my welcome page.

    The program is called Pages not iPages. Just let us know if you do not speak English and what language you do speak so we can adjust for that.
    The issues are to do with your web page not with Pages.
    I think you are asking how to link from your web page to your pdf articles. You must first copy those pdfs to your web server, or some other web location, and then provide html links on your welcome page to those pdf files.
    The pdfs themselves may contain links to other locations but I can not see that that is what you are asking for.
    Nor to what those links would be to.
    From your heading I think you may have confused the name of Pages, the word processing program, with web pages which are two different things.

  • Need help finding music added back to library

    I was working on editing and burning some DVD's and needed more hard drive space so I burned about half my itunes library onto a DVD as a data DVD.
    When I finished the project I thougth I had successfully added the songs back into itunes (they show up in my library and it now shows that i'm using the same amount of hard drive space as I was).
    However, if I don't have the DVD in my computer and try to play one of the songs I get an exclamation point next to the title and the following message appears "the song 'xxx' could not be used because the original file cannot be found. Would you like to locate it."
    Does anyone know what I need to do?

    Thought I'd bump this up and see if I get an answer.

    What you share on iTunes file share is the project itself, not the final video. Press share > camera roll. And then you can access the video on explorer/finder as any other photo.

  • ..I Need Help Putting Music On My iPod..

    ok.. For Some Reason.. All Of A Sudden When I Connect My iPod To My Computer To Put Songs On It.. A Message Comes Up Sayin..
    "Songs On The iPod "my name iPod" Cannot Be Synced Because All Of The Playlists For Syncing No Longer Exist"..
    I Have NOOOO Idea What That Means But Its Took All The Songs Off My iPod.. But There Still On iTunes But Wont Go On The iPod Cussa That Reason ^^..
    Help Please

    You get this problem when the option 'Sync Music - Selected playlists' is being used to sync your iPod and then the playlist it has been updating from is deleted. Most people use this setting when the iPod is smaller than the iTunes library. If your library is larger than the capacity of your iPod, iTunes by default makes a new playlist called something along the lines of "Owner's iPod". If you for any reason delete it, you will not be able to sync your iPod.
    Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in Sources. You can make this a normal playlist and drag whatever you want to it or you can make it a random Smart playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano). Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    To make a random playlist go to File>New Smart Playlist.
    Uncheck "Match the following rule"
    Check "Limit to" put "3700" in the number box, choose "MB" from the first list box, choose "Random" from the next list box. Check "Live Updating"
    When you want to change the selection in the playlist just delete everything in it and it will add a new selection
