No sound in imovie events but there is in projects
I recently imported a lot of video to an external hard drive. When I try and play the video in events, there is no sound. When I drag it up to a project, there is sound. What's up with that?!
Is the external drive formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)? Formats such as FAT32 and NTFS will not work properly (if at all) with iMovie. Also, external FireWire drives generally work more efficiently than USB drives when editing in iMovie.
If the drive is not formatted correctly, you will have to backup the files elsewhere, then reformat using Disk Utility.
To check the format, in Finder right-click (or control-click) on the name of the drive (left hand column) and select Get Info. In the panel that opens you will see the format.
Of course, formatting may not be the problem, given that you can at least see the video in the Event, plus get sound and video in the Project (which may be on your internal drive). But worth checking!

Try resetting your iPad. Press and hold both the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Try your book. -

Serious problem: Imovie is working from the event but not from the project
Hi,
Related to my other post, I have discovered that Imovie seems to be working fine in the event library, but not in the project library.
If I use the spacebar or play buttons in the event part, it shows the film in the right top screen or even in full screen mode.
But if I click on my project, nothing works anymore.
SjoerdHi
Try to make a new User/account. Log into this. Have a re-try.
How does it work now ?
If OK. Go back to Your first account, Take move out iMovie pref file to the desktop
Re.start iMovie.
Works OK ?
iMovie pref file resides:
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences and is named: com.apple.iMovie.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.

IWeb opens but there is no project window
I use iWeb extensively and have never had this issue before. iWeb opens and shows all the menu items but no project window.
I used Time Machine to restore an older version of my iWeb Pages folder, didn't work.
I used this help discussion (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2199580?start=0&tstart=0) to fine and rebuild the iWeb domain or package folder. If I remove the old package iWeb creates a new one and will open an empty project window. Partial sucess, but if I replce the contetns with my old package contents it again won't open the projects and there is no project window.
I can't beleive I never noticed iWeb has no way of opening an exsitng project!
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I REALLY don't want to have to re build my sites from scratch.
I'm on iWeb '08 2.0.4 and Mac OSX 10.8.5.
Thanks,
DavidWell yes, iWeb can open an existing project, but it does have to be your domain.sites file and not a published version of your website because iWeb has no import facility so cannot open html and css.
Find the correct iWeb data file and iWeb will most certainly open it and this can be found under your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.
Your a probably having problems because you are using iWeb 08 with Mountain Lion and iWeb 08 has been reported as having bugs and not working with Mountain Lion. If you want to continue using iWeb, then you will probably need to upgrade it to iWeb 09. Unfortuntately, the only way that you can get iWeb 09 now is to buy it from Amazon. Get either the iLife 09 or iLife 11 boxed set and both of these contain iWeb 09.
iWeb 09 works with Mountain Lion and you can also have separate domain.sites files which you cannot in iWeb 08. In iWeb 09 you can also use direct publishing rather than publishing to a folder.
Try upgrading to iWeb 09 if you want to continue using it with Mountain Lion or your other alternative if you don't want to buy iWeb 09 is to continue to use iWeb 08, but use it on a Mac still running Snow Leopard with which it works. -
I've got storage member joined event but there no storage members yet

I've got a little trouble again..
I have to implement resilience cache listener (aka client consumer) in a distributed cache!
actually my client (storage=false) can starts before server... so there no storage members in cluster yet.. i've got exception on addMapListener

also I can't just listen members joining and add map listener on joining storage member... 'cas storage members set yet empty when i've got on member joined notification
The ugly solution which i've done it's continuously check storage members set and hang map listener when storage node is ready. Do I have a better way?
Thanks for yor time spended on it...Hi,
Hi,
I would think that once all storage members die,
there would be no information on the registered
listeners, so you would definitely have toregister
them again. I But, why? my mapListeners works fine after storage
node comes back. Is it inconsistent or non-supported
behavior?
as I mentioned, I would think...
It might be possible that it actually works fine. Only I would not necessarily use a feature which throws an exception with default settings, and you have to use an override to avoid throwing an exception.
don't think unregistering while no
storage members are present would make too much ofa
difference (or if it would work at all, if
registering without storage did not work either).But, if I'll reregister listeners after storage
restart i should thing about its removing to prevent
something like memory leak... I'm really don't like
this.
If you can, you reregister them then probably you could try unregistering them (but I would possibly delay the unregistering to the point of reregistering).
>>
As for disassembling the bytecode... I am not sureif
it is legal at all :-)I swear don't look at Coherence's bytecode.
I think your solution might bring the chance thatyou
may lose some events which occurred before the
listener was registered.It's not a broblem for me I can lose old entries
I meant new entries inserted between the first storage node startup and your registering of the listener. I am not sure that qualifies as old entry, I would think it does not.

Video lost in iMovie Event but audio retained after upgrade
As a result of upgrading from iMovie '09 to '11, a video I had as an event now shows only as "green screen" video. Audio is still intact, however. But video is gone - literally just a green screen.
When I go into Finder and view the file, I can see both video and audio in the little preview window. I've tried ripping the video again using Handbrake and re-importing it, but still the same thing: green screen with audio.
Any suggestions?Handbrake converts to MPEG formats, which are best avoided in production because of the way the media is encoded. They're great for delivery, which is what Handbrake is designed to do, convert media into delivery formats for iPhones, iPods, AppleTV.

FCP X Events but no FCP X Projects
Can i create my own FCP X Projects file? I'm new to FCP X and the training I'm on said i should have a project and events folder in but I've only seen the FCP X Events file. I'm afraid that these folders may not be able to communicate properly?
What version are you using? Your training sounds out of date for recent versions.

I am not able to edit an event on Ical on my Iphone 4. I can view the event but there is no edit button available on the screen.
Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you could not edit documents with Office client application in SharePoint 2010.
Let’s do a troubleshooting about this issue:
1. Make sure that you have installed Office application on your machine.
2. Which explorer did you use for your SharePoint. Please test it with IE 10 32-bit, compare the result.
3. Please try to reset IE, compare the result.
4. Add your SharePoint site into Trusted site on your IE options.
5. Make sure all add-ons related to SharePoint are enable, special for SharePoint OpenDocument Class and SharePointOpenXMLDocuments.
6. Since you used OWA for your SharePoint site, please try to disable OWA, then open documents with client application, compare the result.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy

IMovie events NOT copied but aliases?
I have 4 years of digital events stored on a Drobo. Impossible to import on my iMac hard disk since the disk space is not enough.
I would like to access these in the browser. The 'import Imovie Events' seems to physically copy all the files and not create references or aliasses like the 'old' Final Cut Pro' does.
Does anybody know if it is possible to prevent the copy effect and thus creating doubles of all files?OK thanks
I wonder if you could clear up a thing for me
If I have a project in iMovie that have clips in it from several events and I want to work with that project in FCP X without copy the files just point to them, could I do like this.
I create the events in FCP x with the same name as iMovie and import all the clips from inside the iMovie events and not the event itself, so that it just points to the clips in the iMovie events and then import the project to FCP X..
Could that work ?
The reason I ask is that I have a couple of projects in iMovie that have clips in them from many events and I would like to work with them in FCP X without copy everything.
Cheers

The audio is coming through my speakers fine, but there is no image of the TV Show or Film. Has anyone else had this issue and solved it?
I had the same thing recently when trying to play a video held in my itunes movies folder on my Macbook pro, through the Apple tv airlink to watch on my TV. I could hear the sound play back fine, but there was no picture/video.
It then dawned on me that the 'Apple tv' box can only show 720p resolution, and I was trying to play back a full hd (1080) video. I converted my footage to 720 (or apple tv version), and it now streams and plays perfectly from macbook to AppleTV. -
Using imovie events together on one mac
me and my husband want to use our movie library together on one computer, but we don't want to use an external disc drive (where i know its working, when we name a folder on top level 'imovie events').
but imovie is not recognizing the imovie events in the shared user folder on the local hard drive.
has anyone any idea how to manage this?
thanksTime Machine backups up everything on the MacPro, so both user accounts are being backed up.
Each user can only access their own respective backups....unless they have the log on password for the other user and log on as the other user.
When the MBP comes back from repair, then it will resume backing up to the "other" backup drive that is normally used with the MBP. -
