Share Media Browser - only shows Tiny, or Mobile size, the rest are grayed

I'm helping a teacher with a movie in iMovie 09. It has all the latest patches. When I tried to use Share>Media Browser - only shows Tiny, or Mobile size, the rest of the larger sizes are grayed out.
Of course, I tried Mobile and it was pixelated when displayed at a larger size.
I'm not sure why this is. Can anyone help?

When you say what size is the source video, what do you mean, and how would I check that size?
I've just encoded the video in iMovie, into iTunes as size "mobile". The resulting file size is 27.8 MB. In iTunes, the info shows the codec as being H.264.

  • Imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one?

    help! imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one? need answers ASAP!

    That is your answer then.
    Large is 960x540
    Medium is 640x480 (or 720x480)
    Mobile is probably 480x272.
    It is offering you the sizes that make sense given the size of your source material.
    As a trick, you might try this. In your project, put a short 640x480 clip in the project as the first clip of the project. Then keep the rest of the project as is. See if it will let you share now in Medium. It will not look as good, because there are not enough pixels to cover the Medium size, but it might work.

  • Has anyone experience a problem with not being able to add a drumbeat loop to a prerecorded project?  When I open the loop browser, there are only a few options available.  The rest are greyed out.  I can only choose individual drum sounds, not full beats

    I have created a project and recorded 2 tracks, one with a guitar and the other vocals.  I would like to add a drum loop, but when I pull up the loop browser, all of the normal selections aren't available.  Some are greyed out, including "Beats".  "All Drums" is available, but when I click on it it pulls up some cymbal sounds only.  I've opened some old recordings in GB to see if this is a consistent issue, but it's not.  Only this one project won't allow me to use drum loops.  Which leads me to believe there is something I have selected or not selected within the project that's not allowing me to see all the loops.  Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    G Clef

  • Can't burn iMovie on DVD via share- media browser

    Hi, I am a novice with iMovie. I have filmed my twins' first Xmas carol concert with my Canon digital video camera.Now I want to burn a simple copy of the film fro my white MacBook onto DVD for fellow mums.I did share->media browser then iDVD ->new project . It says project errors while adjusting or sth like that. Then ask me for a theme ??? and Dropzones?????? Help I don't want anything fancy just my raw film on a DVD. Also the film has only 7600MB a new 4.7GBDVD +R  disk has not enough space, how come???? I spent now 3 hours trying to achive this without any luck - PLEASE someone out there have mercy!

    daveslave101,
    Karsten Schluter has some suggestions on how to just make a simple no theme DVD project here on this message thread:
    Home Video in _TS starts in DVD player automatically when I copy and burn it will not start automatically. How do I make a good copy to start automatically?
    Set the Project to 'Structure View', then drag the video project from the Media Browser into the first 'box' that appears in the DVD structure view of the project. Also note, iDVD doesn't pay any attention to how big your finished video clip is. It only pays attention to how long the video clip runs. iDVD will allow you to create a DVD just under 120 minutes in length (but it will take a while to crunch everything down into the space available). Ideally your project would be just under 60 minutes (and that takes much less time to transcode into MPEG2 format for the DVD). As long as your video runs under 120 minutes iDVD will be able to fit it on the space of a DVD+R disk I think. iDVD also takes into a account all the 'interface' items you aren't going to use (menus, animations, thumbnail video clips and music), that takes up space too, so you might be closer to 100-110 minutes run time at a maximum for an iDVD project.

  • I imported a movie from PhotoBooth to IMovie. I want to put the movie on my blog. To do that I have to select Share Media Browser, but it is not highlighted. What should I do?

    I imported a movie from PhotoBooth to IMovie. I want to put the movie on my blog. To do that I have to select Share >Media Browser, but it is not highlighted in IMovie. What should I do?

    Is the clip only in your Event Library in iMovie?
    You need to create a Project (File > New Project).
    Then move the clip into the project, do any edits and you should be able to Share your Project to Media Browser.

  • How do I export my iMovie '11 video and burn it to a DVD? I've tried 'Share' - 'Media Browser', 'iDVD', and 'Export Movie' but always get an error message indicating that my movie is too long to publish. Thoughts?

    How do I export my iMovie '11 video and burn it to a DVD? I've tried 'Share' - 'Media Browser', 'iDVD', and 'Export Movie' but always get an error message indicating that my movie is too long to publish. Thoughts? Additionally, what does 'File' 'Finalize Project' do?

    Instead of Share to Media Browser, what happens if you try Share Menu > Export Movie... (choose Large size) and save it to the Desktop?
    If that fails try Share Menu > Export using QuickTime...
    Then pick Movie to QuickTime Movie, then click on Options... which is just to the right of Export
    Under the Video section click on Settings...
    Then in the pulldown menu at the top, titled Compression Type: Choose Apple Intermediate Codec. Then click OK. And click OK again, and save it to the desktop. Once the .mov file is created, you can import that into iDVD and most likely it will work in Wondershare Creator if you prefer to use that instead.

  • IMovie: Share - Media Browser when finishing receive: Error code = -2125

    After I completed 6 hrs of video preparation I received the following error:
    *Unable to prepare project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (Error code = -2125)*
    The video was made from 4 separate DVD cd's from camcorder. I used Share - Media Browser - Large to publish and after 6 full hours and 100% is when this error comes up. I have confirmed that I have plenty of Hard Drive space on all my drives, so not sure what the problem is... Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Kevin

    The easiest way is to go to the Project Library view. Then, with the Project selected, click FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT. Give this new project a name, like Project Name Part 1. Then do this again and give it a name like Project Name Part 2. Leave your original project intact. Go to Part 1 and delete everything in the second half.
    Open Part 2, and delete all the clips in the first half.

  • I tried updating my iPod 5th gen to iOS 8 but it only shows me a picture of the iTunes logo and a charger at the bottom, I'm not sure what this means or what I need to do. Can someone please help me?

    I tried updating my iPod 5th gen to iOS 8 but it only shows me a picture of the iTunes logo and a charger at the bottom, I'm not sure what this means or what I need to do. Can someone please help me?

    After restoring to factory settings/new iPod you will then have to restore from backup
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        

  • Why can I create a new folder in the catalog but it only shows up in windows not the catalog

    Why can I create a new folder in the catalog but it only shows up in windows not the catalog

    Not sure I understand the question but it could be because you meant to say "can't" somewhere in the sentence.  anyway, just guessing here:
    Try going to:
    File >> Watch folders
    Now you can Add new folders here that you see them in Windows.  The word ADD is a button to browse for the folders and hopefully this will solve the problem you are having.

  • My iPhone 4s is stuck on a black screen that shows a USB cable connecting to iTunes. The phone will not turn on and the iTunes logo as I described only shows up when I plug the phone into the charger or my computer. I have tried the reset in restore mode

    My iPhone 4s is stuck on a black screen that shows a USB cable connecting to iTunes. The phone will not turn on and the iTunes logo as I described only shows up when I plug the phone into the charger or my computer. I have tried the reset in restore mode as well as the DFU? mode and it still will not work. I have the latest version of iTunes on my Mac. My error code was 2002. I also tried it on my laptop (windows 8.1) and none of the above worked. My error code on my laptop was 02. The phone is through Verizon and it has absolutely no damage. It was working fine up until this and I have been trying to fix it for 2 days. Please help! I am unsure of what version the phone was currently running on before this because I have another iphone that's my primary phone and have not used this one in about a month. I do not believe it was updated to IOS 7.

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • My iphone 4s is importing contact information from FB and my email account.  When I pull up my contacts it only shows e-mail information and the phone numbers have disappeared.  How do I get my old contact list back with the phone numbers?

    My iphone 4s is importing contact information from FB and my e-mail account.  When I try to look at my contact list it is showing everyone I have on those lists and it only shows their email addresses.  The phone numbers for my contacts have disappeared and I don't know how to get them back.

        Hi macmac57. I don't memorize my numbers anymore, so I know how important it is to have all your contacts on your phone at all times. Did an update occur or a new application download when your contacts disappeared? Have you been backing up your device with your computer? You can try to restore your contacts from your last backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Are you syncing your iPhone between multiple computers? This can sometimes create issues with your contacts. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1474
    If you were already using iCloud to back up your contacts, check out http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998 for some great tips from Apple.
    I do hope this has been helpful for you to restore your contacts.

  • I receive daily emails from the NY Times, which I read from my Ipad. Some of the emails will show all of the stories available, and some will only show a few lines in the body and the rest of the email is blank. Any ideas of what I need to do to fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

    Try to hook up your nano to your computer and choose the dialog box to update your software.  The current version is 1.2 which allows distance to be calculated once you input your height (and weight).

    I just received my iPad2 today. When I turned it on it only showed a USB cable and the iTunes icon. What does this mean?

    The first thing that needs to be done with a new iPad is to activate it by connecting it to a computer running iTunes (version 10.2 +).
