The Imovie instaled in my MacBook Pro can't imported iMovie for iOS

Hello,
     I've been trying to open an IMovie in my MacBook Pro that I transferred from my IPad through ITunes. However I receive the following message from the IMovie: This version of iMovie cannot import Trailers created in iMovie for iOS. I have IMovie 11 installed and it has all current updates.
Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks,
Paza2012

"The document “Tit_for_Tat.wmv” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands."  Sometimes I get a movie clip from another Mac user, but my Macbook Pro can't open it and I get this message.  What do I need?  Thank you
Do you realize the answer to your question is on the right, under "More Like This."

  • IMovie for Mac: "iMovie cannot open files in the "iMovie for iOS Project" format."

    Question, asked professionally
    When will iMovie for Mac be able to open iMovie for iOS projects?

    Any reasonable expectation that we will ever be able to edit projects--created in iMovie on our fancy new expensive phones--in iMovie on our fancy new expensive laptops?

    iMovie for Mac: "iMovie cannot open files in the "iMovie for iOS Project" format."
    iMovie for iOS: "An error occurred during export."
    Frustration
    Manufacturer: Apple (a multibillion dollar company)
    The year: 2015
    Hours lost: Three Weeks
    Total costs for both devices: $4,000
    Background Details
    I just wasted thousands of dollars on these two hardware devices by making the rookie mistake of assuming projects were compatible across iMovie applications. However, the exported .iMovieMobile project files are in an incompatible iMovie for iOS Project format that iMovie for Mac cannot import. So I am stuck with a 15 GB .iMovieMobile project file--for an hour-long+ video--that I created and I was editing on my iPhone for weeks that I can no longer edit on my iPhone due to an error, nor potentially rescue the lost hours on my Mac, the sole reason I purchased it one day ago. The reason I can no longer edit the project on the iPhone is because iMovie for iOS suddenly stopped displaying the video of the project in preview, external display, etc. The clip snapshots remain visible and the audio remains audible, but the video appears fully black. Any attempt to export the video at any resolution generates an error message. (This error applies only to this project; other projects export without issue.) I can save to and from iTunes or iCloud without issue, but import into iMovie for Mac is unavailable for this latest version. Deleting and reinstalling the app does not resolve the issue. Nothing has resolved this issue; so I purchased the Mac as a last attempt, and it appears that I will have to begin the meticulously painful process of recreating the video from scratch with all the titling, sound effects, precise edits, transitions, organization, etc. This video was to surprise my mother for her birthday with "this is your life" footage, including my late father. It may seem like a small first-world problem, but such things carry big emotional impacts. What began as such a wonderfully intuitive and joyful experience has descended into a soul-suffering nightmare of catastrophic proportions. This software grinch stole christmas.
    Likely Suspect
    I believe this originated from Apple's confusingly designed iTunes client that removed videos used by iMovie for IOS during a sync, which I successfully restored back to the iPhone. This apparently resulted in iOS seeking and then claiming to find all of the videos, but somehow a bug in the coding causes the audio to play but not display video, and no way to resolve the bug from an enduser standpoint. I was hoping that iMovie for Mac would allow me a workaround, but I'll never know because the iOS and Mac formats are currently and dishearteningly incompatible.
    Suggestions
    I never performed a full backup of the iPhone, but I don't believe any of the iCloud nor local backups actually backup iMovie projects themselves anyway. (That's a fail.) So one must back them up manually to iTunes or iCloud.
    MANUALLY BACKUP YOUR PROJECTS DAILY, IF NOT HOURLY.
    MANUALLY BACKUP YOUR PROJECTS BEFORE IMPORTING OR SYNCING FROM ITUNES.
    MANUALLY BACKUP YOUR PROJECTS BEFORE IMPORTING VIDEO CREATED OUTSIDE  OF YOUR IOS DEVICE.
    Resolutions
    Hope Apple fixes this problem soon? Perhaps.
    Return the Mac to Apple, if they allow? Perhaps.
    Someone in this community will provide a magical workaround--that I haven't already attempted? Perhaps.
    As unlikely these options may be, I shudder to imagine that I may be forced to suffer no resolution and $3,000+ completely down the drain, because if iMovie for IOS worked as intended, I wouldn't have ever purchased the Mac as a last ditch effort to rescue the project. It meant that much to me to surprise my mother by attempting to retrieve this project file from oblivion--but to no avail.

    I appreciate you taking the time to copy and paste boilerplate responses to increase your points in this forum, but I've already read all those support articles in depth; but you have barely read my post at all. Please don't guess a fix. Only someone with the latest versions of iMovie, iOS, iPhone, Yosemite, and MacBook Pro is qualified to troubleshoot this, because anyone would immediately see that the following option no longer exists:
    Open iMovie on your Mac, and choose File > Import > iMovie for iOS Project.
    Read my post before you reply: It clearly says in the title and within my post that I can neither export nor import through iTunes without receiving an error message. So your response neither solved my question nor helped me whatsoever.

  • I can't install anything on MacBook Pro - can anyone help?

    Dear All,
    I can't install anything on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8). For example, I'll download an update, which in turn opens an installer window. I select the destination for the installation. So far so good. But when I click on 'install', nothing... Absolutely nothing happens.
    I've been into disk utility to fix the permissions - there seemed to be quite a lot to fix. Then I repaired them. But running another check on disk permissions throws up the same errors, even though the first time round they were apparently fixed.
    I've had a look in some of the the forums; one option seems to be to reboot from the installation DVD. Unfortunately, as I'm out of the country at the moment, the disk, along with most of my worldly possessions, is in storage hundreds of miles away and completely inaccessible.
    Can anybody help a) with working out what the problem might be and b) with suggestions as to what on earth I can do to fix it?
    Thanks so much to you all for your help,
    h

  • How can I erase the data on my 2009 macbook pro that won't turn on because of a faulty motherboard? Do I just remove the hard drive, install it in a working mac, and erase it that way?

    You put the internal drive in an enclosure. If you choose to keep the drive, you don't need to erase it.

  • I own PSE 10 installed on my MacBook Pro.  Can I use the disc to install it on new iMac?

    Have PSE 10 installed on my MacBook Pro.  Can I use the discs to install it on my new iMac?  also considering PSE 11 and Lightroom 4. Comments?

    Yes you can install it on your new Macintosh.  If it does not have an optical drive then you can copy the contents of the installation media to a USB drive and then install the software from there.

  • I have PS 4,5,and 6 installed on my Macbook Pro as well as Lightroom 4 and 5. Can I remove PS 4 and 5 and LR 4?  PS 4 is the total install and PS 5 and 6 are upgrades. LR 4 is the full package with LR an upgrade.

    I need space!

    First let me disabuse of a misconception:  All Adobe upgrades are FULL installers.  Whether you buy them as upgrades or new versions does not make an iota of difference.  The upgrade installers do not need to find a prior version installed, they just prompt you for the old serial number as well as the old one, and they do not rely on the old version in the least.
    Second, the time to uninstall an older version is BEFORE upgrading to a newer one.  Otherwise, the uninstaller from the older versions will mess up with your new install.  There are a gazillion files that are named the same and in the same locations as the new one.
    Your best bet now is to uninstall ALL the Photoshop versions you have installed, including the newest one, one by one, then run the Adobe CS Cleaner Tool, then run Repair Permissions from Apple's Desk Utility, and finally re-install the latest version.
    The other alternative, if your boot HD is large enough (very doubtful in case of a laptop like a Mac Book), is to leave all versions on it.
    Your choice.

  • After installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro and my MacMini can't shut down, only a grey screen and finish. Must be killed by the power button. Why?

    After installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro and my MacMini can't shut down, only a grey screen and finish. Must be killed by the power button. Why?
    Nach der Installation von Mavericks kann ich weder das MacBook Pro (2 x 2.4 GHz) noch den MacMini (2 x 2.66 GHz) herunterfahren. Es bleibt ein dauerhafter grauer Bildschirm. Nach 20 min habe ich einen erzwungenen Neustart durchgeführt.
    Ausserdem startet die Macs wesentlich langsamer als mit OS X 10.6.8.

    same here...  sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't!!

  • I have a HP Laserjet P1102w printer hooked up to the USB port of my Airport Extreme. I'm able to print to the printer wirelessly from my MacBook Pro. My iPad (2nd gen) can't find the printer. What do I need to do?

    My iPad is on the same network as the Airport Extreme. The HP printer is on the list of Airprint printers but I'm not using it as a wireless printer, per se, as it's hooked up to the USB port on the Airport Extreme.
    I installed the HP ePrint app on my iPad. Unfortunately, the app could not find the printer either. 
    As mentioned earlier, I'm able to print wirelessly to the HP printer via my MacBook Pro.

    Since I'm able to print to the HP printer from my MacBook Pro using this configuration, shouldn't I be able to print to the printer from my iPad, especially when all of the devices are on/using the same network?
    Not necessarily. AirPrint uses a protocol separate from the communication protocol used for the Extreme's USB port. The HP printer may disable AirPrint when its USB port connected to a valid device, which is my reason for recommending you use it wirelessly.
    From AirPrint Basics:
    AirPrint printers connected using Bluetooth or shared through a USB port of a Mac, PC, AirPort Base Station, or Time Capsule are not supported.
    AirPrint printers connected by Ethernet are supported in OS X.
    You may get more competent assistance from HP. See this HP support forum topic: iPhone & iPad can't Airprint to p1102w LaserJet
    HP's Mac support has always been miserable though. I have been much happier since I abandoned HP and started buying Brother printers. They just work.

  • If I do a clean install on my MacBook Pro will I be able to re-install apps (FCP, Aperture, MS Office etc.) from a Time Machine backup, or will I need the original install DVDs with authorization codes?

    I have two questions...
    1) If I do a clean install on my MacBook Pro will I be able to re-install apps (FCP, Aperture, MS Office etc.) from a Time Machine backup, or will I need the original install DVDs with authorization codes? (because I don't have them)
    2) Has anyone ever seen anything like this before on their computers?
    The Apple Genius' were stumped by my laptop issues and said they'd never seen anything like it before and recommended I did a clean install. Below you can see my trash bin, and if you look at the "Empty" button it reads "N201" and then there's the "N39" to the left of it. You can also see these numbers over by the folder area--"SD5, SD6, SD7." But that's not all...
    When I right click on items I see the numbers again. Instead of "Open with" I get "N152" and there's an "N35" and "LB1" towards the bottom.
    I have no idea what's going on so I'm just going to do a clean install on my machine but I don't want to lose my apps. I don't have the original install DVDs for them anymore. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks!

    You don't lose them.  You can always redownload them from the app store after you log back in with your Apple ID.
    "Buy, download, and even redownload.
    You can install apps on every Mac you use and even download them again. This is especially convenient when you buy a new Mac and want to load it with apps you already own."

  • I cannot repair the HD even from the installation cd of a macbook pro (i have macbbook with Snow Leopard). Even more, i cannot reboot from the HD to export the cd etc... Can you please help?

    History:
    Started with stucking. No sesponse to any attempt than force quit.
    When i checked the disc, replied: nod fail, repair with installation cd. Sth like that.
    I borrowed the installation disc of a macbook pro (i have macbook). I run the utilities to repair the disc 2 times. Failed. After i didn't know how to take out the cd. I had to force quit.
    Then, at start, it takes 10-15 minutes with the Apple sign and a small silver bar, until it switch of by itself. I repeated the procedure 10 times totaly, the same!
    Sime times, when i start from the installation cd ( i hold "c" at the start), it does'n "see" the hard drive to start up with.
    Important detail: When i run the disc repair operation from the Disc Utility of the Installation cd, on the column of the volumes, the "HD Macintosh" characters are grey, whether others are normaly black.
    Budget detail: i don't have money to buy products etc, so i count on your advises!!! I prepare a performance though, soon, and i can add the trademark of the sponsor, if somebody is interested... All the data in the computer are about this work, so i cannot risk to lose them.
    Thank you in advance!

    It sounds as if your MacBook's hard drive is dead, or possibly dying. Replacement drives are fairly inexpensive. You'll need an install DVD like the one that came with the MacBook. Contact Apple via expresslane.apple.com to order a new set. Once you have the machine up and running, restore your data from your backups. If you don't have backups, contact a data recovery outfit to see what they can get off of your old hard drive.
    Backups are important!
    Best of luck.
