No sound effects or music in iMovie 09

iMovie 09     8.0.6
iTunes 10   10.4.1
OS X    10.6.8
Ran software update this past weekend.
iMovie does not find sound effects or iTunes music since I ran the software update.
Is this an iTunes issue or iMovie issue? and
any guidance on fixing the issue?
Thanks

i can't believe how much help i've received.

    I have FCE 4.0.1 and running OS x 10.7.5  when i burn my movie the audio from my movie clips don't come through .  My Sound effects and music can be heard.  First I export to Quicktime movie, make it self contained then open IDVD for an intro and burn it.  everything sounds great in preview but then ( once again)I lose my audio from my movie clips.

    Try Mixing Down the audio before export.

  • Problem finding my sound effects and music in final cut pro X

    I am having a problem finding my sound effects and music in final cut pro X.  I just bought a new i
    Mac, because my Mac pro died.  when I was using the mac pro, I had final cut Pro X loaded, and in the Music and sound library, I had stock tracks from APM music that came with final cut.  now that I have loaded final cut to my new computer, I do not see those tracks.  Am I missing something?

    The FCP X sound effects were an additional external download and were not kept in the FCP X application.
    You probably need to re-download them.
    In the FCP menu at the top left of your screen you will see the download link.

  • HT201808 "...nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound effects or music beds." So does this mean I can't make a song with just remixed loops and publish it on SoundCloud for example?

    If I've made a song with remixed loops, can I post it on SoundCloud to share with facebook friends and stuff? Regarding this statement from the software license agreement: "...however, individual audio loops may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound effects or music beds."

    momomikes,
    Would you mind continue reading the document you quoted?
    Read the last sentence, please. It goes:
    ”So don't worry, you can make commercial music with GarageBand, you just can't distribute the loops as loops.“

  • My macbook air doesnt play voice audio tracks in movies. I can hear sound effects and music. In VLC and Itunes.

    I opened up multiple video players and multiple movie files. MP4 and MKV. They work fine on my macbook pro but on my air I can only hear the music and sound effects, the voice track doesnt sound. The movie files are one file only no dts or surround option. Im pretty stumped.

    Hi, Julian,
    I can't even find the instructions for it in the GB Help File
    That's because it's an undocumented feature.
    Here's a link that describes it:

    You can always import GB files directly into LE.

  • I life sound effects not showing in imovie 08

    whenever i'm in imovie 08 and i click on the ilife sound effects folder, then click on animals i don't have any sound clips to choose from. there are sound clips in there but they are all .caf files. does imovie not read .caf or is there a quick easy way to convert them to.mp3 files ?

    Mmmm strange . the sound files should be .aif, what happens if you simply change the file extension from .caf to .aif (I've not come across .caf before. They are located in library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound effects.

  • Copy right on sound effects in iMovie

    I just got a strange email from youtube. They claim a movie clip of mine contains material which possibly is the property of "GoDigital MG For a Third Party".
    I only used sound effects and music from imovie. Isn't this material free to use and publish in my movie clips?
    Does anybody know more about this? I cannot find any indication of the copy right inside imovie.
    It also states that I don't have to do anything, my clip is still available world wide but they could advertise on my page.
    Thanks for any help in advance. If this meant trouble I would remove the clip. Its only a holiday film. Or I would move to Vimeo.
    Cheers
    Chris

  • Is it permissible to upload a video on youtube with music, sounds effects, and video effects from imovie?

    Lately, I've been editing and making videos for a local church in Mexico. I am not selling any of the videos. The are free to watch. However, is it permissible to upload a video with music, sound effects, and video effects from imovie? I using imovie version 10.0.2

    There are a number of con-men who think that they can earn a quick buck from claiming that they own the copyright to Apple’s royalty-free jingles and sound effects included with the iLife applications.

  • IMovie '11 stopped playing some of my audio sound effects.

    I completed a project in iMovie '11 yesterday and today opened it to fine tune the musical scoring. I'm using a 2011 MacBook Air 13 in. Yesterday all the background audio files I had placed, as well as the pinned audio (that iMovie calls "sound effects") worked fine. Today the first few will play and the rest are muted. Also, if I should add a sound effect or music file to the timeline, it appears normally, but remains mute. Nothing comes out of the speakers. The sound file will play fine in the Audio window. Selecting it and then hitting the play button (or double-clicking it) will cause it to play normally. But when I drag the file over to the timeline and drop it on a clip, it attaches normally and looks fine. But when I play the video, there is no sound. Now here's the strange thing. If I copy one of the audio files that DOES play and then paste it back into the timeline, it will not play. It's the same file, but at one point it plays and at another it does not. This problem does not occur with background audio files. If I take the same file that will not play as an attached "sound effect" and paste it into the background as a big green background audio file, it will play.
    So, what's going on? I don't recall doing anything since yesterday (when everything worked fine) that might have caused this aberrant behavior. Have you ever encountered a problem like this? Any idea about what I can do to correct this? Thank you for your swift reply. I'm facing an urgent deadline.

    The "yellow caution badge" that Peter refers to indicates that iMovie can't locate the clip, whether it be video or audio. The "badge" is in the shape of a yellow triangle enclosing an exclamation mark - see this picture:
    One tip that may help is to delete iMovie's preference file. That file can become corrupted under certain circumstances, such as when iMovie quits unexpectedly or is Force Quit.
    The file is located in your User (Home) folder Library/Preferences and, for iMovie '11, is named "com.apple.iMovieApp.plist".
    Close iMovie, then drag the .plist file to the Trash. When opened, iMovie will create a fresh .plist file with the default settings, which you can change if desired in iMovie's menu item iMovie>Preferences.
    Deleting the file will not harm your existing Events or Projects, but may fix iMovie's abnormal behaviour.
    NOTE: I have seen similar behaviour myself, as you and Peter describe (but not as serious - it was on a test project). My fix was to check each and every audio track and switch Ducking OFF and ON (or ON and OFF depending on its setting). The disappearing audio suddenly re-appeared on the problem track. But it may have been coincidental, as I was playing around generally - perhaps something else I did triggered it.

  • Are there any new sound effects or jingles in iMovie11?

    I have just started using iMovie 11 and I recognise most of the sound effects from previous versions of iMovie.  Has anyone noticed if there are any new ones?  Thanks, Keith

  • Logic Studio install - Sound Effects option disabled

    When I go to install Logic Studio, in the list of things to install the selections "Sound Effects" and "Music Beds" are greyed out and uncheckable. If I install everything I can select, it skips the discs Audio Content 1 and 2. Is there a way to get at least the Sound Effects option enabled?
    (This is for Logic Studio upgrade w/ Logic Pro 9, upgrading from Logic Express 8)

    So I understand correctly that you are not involved in creating music in any way? Then Logic is NOT what you are looking for. It is mainly aimed at either recording and/or composing original music, and not as a ready to select library sort of thing.
    Unfortunately, I can't tell you what you should get, but maybe one of the pro guys can help you out. You'll probably find some users here who actually make the sort of content you want to use.
    Logic Pro is the main program in the Logic Studio set.

  • My sound works for music but not apps

    My sound works for music but not apps

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • Are there any STP sound effects usage restrictions?

    Are the sound effects in STP free to use? Like could I use them in a feature film if I wanted? A website? Anything? I'm not asking about other companies- I'm talking specifically about the sound effects that come with STP.
    Thanks!
