What are icons in the Project Library?

Anyone know what the meaning of icon which looks like a series of 4 boxes, small to large? In my project gallery, each movie project has these, with some highlighted, and 2 movies have a yellow box with exclamation point above, sort of over a volume or broadcast symbol.

The boxes show that you have Shared the project to either iTunes or the Media Browser. The boxes are Tiny, Mobile, Medium, and Large corresponding to the sizes you shared.
The yellow triangle means that those projects cannot be edited because some of the project assets are missing. This usually happens when you move or rename event files, music files, or photos outside of iMovie.

  • What's that symbol in the Project Library viewer

    In the Project Library where I can scroll through all my projects there is a little symbol that looks a bit like the WIFI icon cocked on its side  just to the left of the filmstrip preview. It is not next to all my projects and sometimes there is an exclamation mark on top of it. What is that symbol?

    The symbol indicates the project has been shared. If it has an exclamation point it means the project has been altered since it was shared.

  • What does the icon beside the project name indicate

    There is an icon beside the project beside some of the project names.  No amount of hovering over it, seems to reveal any kind of tooltip or explanation as to what it indicates.  Any ideas?

    Additionally, related to that, if you highlight that Project, go to the Inspector, and look in the Shared section, it'll show you a list of all the Exported (Shared) files you've made from that project.  The same icon there indicates that exported file has been moved or deleted.  You can click on the magnifying glass icon to open a Finder window showing the location of that export (only if it's still in tact).

  • .bmp files do not show as icons in the event library - I am having to convert them to .jpg  to achieve a display

    Although .bmp files are to some extent supported, I find that on importing them they do not show as icons in the event library. I am having to convernt them to .jpg files to produce this result.   Am I doing something wrongly, or is this the experience of others as well?

    Yes - I've posted one of the files to Dropbox and it appears perfectly in picture form on my IPad.   So it seems there is nothing wrong with the files.  I'm even more puzzled now!  I'll try to upload a smaller (less than 2mb) file here.  The files I am using in the project, which is a kind of family history using stills,  are a complete mix of types - tif, jpg, Canon raw(cr2), psd and bmp.   Some, including, I suspect, many of the .bmps are scans from old prints, as this one.

  • Can I sort the Project Library?

    Two quick questions I had trouble finding the answers to.  Are there controls for sorting the Project Library?  With the Events Library, I have a ton of control on how I want my events to be sorted... but I couldn't find any such controls with the Project LIbrary.  My guess is that sorting by date isn't necessarily helpful, because it shows when a project was last opened.. not created.  It would be helpful if there was a way to sort by Project Creation date... or perhaps last export date.  As is, it's just sorted alphabetically.
    Side question:  What's the quickest way to find out what the default event for a project is?  From the Project LIbrary itself, I see I can highlight the project and look under the inspector for "referenced Events", but it doesn't seem to tell me what the default event is if multiple are listed.  Once in the project, I'm not sure how to find this information. 
    Thanks!

    Thanks Tom,  I ended up finding one of my answers.  With the project selected in the Project Library, I can see in the Inspector under properties the "referenced events" down below, but I was not noticing at the very top in lighter grey where it showed "Default Event: Name of Event" ... That solves that.   Once inside the project itself, I couldn't find a way for seeing this information, but at least I can see it from the Projects Library screen.
    Basically I'm taking over as editor for a company and trying to make sense of the previous editor's organizational structure.  Let's just say... it's not very organized.  He did a terrible job of naming events and projects and I was having trouble figuring out what goes with what.  I've actually had to build a spreadsheet just to make sense of his mess.  Hah

  • Just upgraded iTunes to version 11.0.2.26...... now have no music or apps..... they are still in the iTunes library on the pc, just not in the iTunes interface.... ideas anyone..?

      Just upgraded iTunes to version 11.0.2.26...... now have no music or apps..... they are still in the iTunes library on the pc, just not in the iTunes interface.... ideas anyone..?

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    Note with iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show all your purchases with cloud icons that allow them to be streamed or downloaded from Apple's servers.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    If, for some inexplicable reason, the media has been removed from your computer see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • IMovie '11 How do I recover a project that appears within the IMovie Projects folder but does not show in the Project Library?

    I have had my MBP for just over 3 months now!  Yes, I made the switch and up until now I have been quite happy.
    I now have my Time Capsule, Apple TV running and am generally getting used to life as a Mac user.............even bought Aperture and loaded all the family photos.  Now time to make some Travel movies.
    I have been working on a particular IMovie project for a few weeks now.  Size is 365MB.  Yesterday I closed IMovie and when accessing later that project is not available in the Project Library window.  It does appear in the IMovie Projects folder but I cannot open it.  I have copied the file to DVD just in case.  All up I have 4 Projects, the other 3 are practice files, smaller but they do appear in the Project Library.
    I have scoured the bulletin boards and tried many suggested fixes to no avail.  Main suggestion was to remove the following files from Library/Preferences
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    However, this did not sort out my problem.  In the end I put back the original files.
    Does anyone have a straightforward fix for my problem or is this one of those ongoing issues that that needs Apple's attention. 
    After all the file is there with the others.  They are available.
    I realise that I can restore from Time Capsule but I am missing the last three days thanks to 'drop out'.
    Thanks.......

    Yes, considering we have an ongoing 'glich' within an Apple program with no obvious solution, we should be able to direct it straight to an Apple rep.  I will peruse this possibility when I get a moment.
    You can report the problem by providing feedback to Apple. In the iMovie app, from the menu select iMovie > Provide iMovie Feedback. This will take you to an Apple page where you can complete a form and submit it to Apple.
    The fix for this will probably turn out to be simple/easy.....................so why doesn't Apple comment and/or address it????
    Other than the forum moderators, Apple doesn't normally monitor these forums, nor make comments on posts. So, it's up to us to report the problem to them directly (using the feedback form mentioned above).
    As the problem has affected me just the one time (touch wood), I haven't bothered to report it as yet. But, after seeing your posts on this, I'm now reconsidering that. Something must be triggering it. My system is in pretty good shape, so I'm guessing it must be a glitch of some sort, either in Mountain Lion or in the iMovie app itself. Perhaps it's a 3rd party app causing the problem? It doesn't give us much confidence now, in that we may start worrying about losing other projects.
    A good practice is to duplicate the project from time to time (something I'll be doing more of), although Time Machine backups also provide the necessary security. To duplicate, in Project Library view (where all the projects are listed) click on the project name so that it is highlighted, then select File > Duplicate Project. Alternatively, right-click (or Control-click) on the project name and select Duplicate Project from the pop-up menu. Of course, you may already know this. Duplicating probably won't guarantee that the copy will not also disappear from the Project Library, but is worth doing anyway.
    As I mentioned in the post I linked to earlier, when the problem arose with my iMovie project I was using ProRes 422 clips I had imported from a Final Cut Pro X Event. My immediate thought was that ProRes 422 had caused the problem. But this of course may have been coincidental - reinforced now by your experience, where you are probably working with Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) clips.
    Anyway, glad to hear that you've recovered your project through Time Machine. Unfortunately, I had to start from scratch as I had Time Machine turned off during my editing sessions (that's a story for another day).

  • How to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

    how to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

    Within Aperture you have Images, which are constructed on-the-fly from two files (the Master and the Version).  You get an image-format file _only_ when you export an Image.  You select the file name (usually a scheme) when you create an image-format file (that is, when you export).  Look under "Aperture→Presets→File Naming" for built-in Presets.  You can, of course, create your own or customize any provided.
    The Preset is applied to only the file newly created by your "export" command.  It is not applied to the Image in Aperture (unless you rename your Versions or your Masters).

  • Moving audio files around that are not in the iTunes library

    Hi,
    Can someone please confirm some behaviour for me. This is regarding iTunes (on OS X naturally) and moving files around that aren't located within the iTunes library.
    Most of the files I use are located within the iTunes library, they are fine. However i do maintain a number of files outside of the iTunes library which i primarily use as a DJ. I would like to keep these files seperate, however I do move them occasionally, especially as I classify new music into categories and such.
    On my previous powerbook, I noticed that I could move these files and iTunes would still be able to find them, without my manually notifying iTunes where to find them. I did notice a hiccup though, and once when I was recovering from a backup, a bunch of files that i moved weren't found by iTunes.
    on my lovely new macbook pro I'm experimenting with the same thing, but it hasn't seemed to been working so far.
    my question: Does OS X track where files get moved to? Does iTunes for Mac automatically fix it's library after some period of time through the OS?
    I'd really like to confirm this behaviour and see what I can / can't count on.
    thanks,
    conrad

    I dont think you can rely on itunes to keep track of your files consistently if you move them around all the time. One solution would be to make a "smart folder" in finder/file/new smart folder. You could call this smart folder "chicago hard house set" and set it to find the tag "chicago hard house set" Then in itunes when you find a track or loop you want to use in that set just add the tag "chicago hard house set" to the composer line under "get info". the smart folder will find the tag in itunes and put a the file in the smart folder, if you keep the smart folder on your desktop (or wherever) Ableton will see the folder and let you access all the files in it. So you can preview all your sound files in itunes and tag them to a specific set and they will show up in that sets smart folder. I use the smart folders to keep track of multiple tracks when recording with Digital Performer onto multiple hard drives at one time.

  • HT203477 Why does my computer quit unexpectedly when I click on "Show the Project Library" in Final Cut Pro X ?

    Hello,
    When I click on "Show the Project Library" on Final Cut Pro X program, my computer unexpectedly quits.
    I just purchased an iMac 27in screen, (16G Ram) and all the features suggested by the Apple representative to run Final Cut Pro X.
    The program was working well for about a week. Afterward, I downloaded all my iMovie projects. I'm wondering if that has created this problem.
    Any suggestions as to what the solution might be?    Thanks.
    Jack

    Over the year I've used FCPX, it' s gone through "spells" where specific actions would crash it - much as you describe. Trashing preferences has nearly always fixed things. Several times, when it did not, I reinstalled the app.
    However, I've never imported an  iMovie project so I can't give any first hand advice. It will be interesting to see whether FCPX opens if it doesn't see those projects. (per Tom Wolsky's advice.)

  • Why did my project disappear from the project library?

    I recently finished a project, exported it to the "project file" in the Movie folder, and from there burned it to a disk. No problem. Since then, I have been thinking about making a couple of changes to the project, but when I opened the Project Library in iMovie, lo and behold, it was nowhere to be found. All of my other projects were there, but this one was gone.
    I looked in the project file in the Movie folder, and there it was, along with the movie, but I can't edit it any further in its present location. If it were in the project library (where it belongs), I could certainly edit it, but I can't figure out how to get it back there, so to speak.
    Two questions: first, why did it disappear from the Project Library, and second, what can I do about it now? I could always start from scratch (using clips in the Event Library), but that means doing everything over again, which I prefer not to do. Any ideas?

    I've got the similar problem:

  • Idvd won't recognize my imovie from the project library, I've mislabeled it

    I created a video in the project library of imovie. Tried to create a dvd, but it didn't show up in the Movie Browser (the way it is supposed to acc'd to page 258 in Jim's '09 book.) I tired exporting it (p248), and somehow did something that ended up with the project labeled as a document!!! Then I tried exporting it as a quick time movie, and was able to create a dvd from that. But when I played it on the TV, the sound track was misaligned with the video and some of the video was unstable. I am totally confused as to what to try next.
    The movie as it plays in the project library is great. I'd be happy to have it on a dvd that I could show on TV without chapters or anything fancy. I don't know how to make that happen.
    Thanks for any help you could give.

    in the iMovie menu bar, -> Share; -> iDVD
    to add thumbnail images, you may also have to -> Share; -> Media Browser.
    Hope it helps.

  • Suddenly my project window has no scroll bars, and if I return to the project library, select my project and click edit, another project LIBRARY appears partially covering the project window.  Help.

    In the middle of making a movie, the scroll bars vanished in the project window and I could no longer navigate at all.  If I went to the project library and selected the project, another image of the project library slid in and entered onto my screen.  after repeated attempts to open the project in various ways, I have it now, but there are holes in the project window (blank background) and no scroll bars.  It does not respond to anything.
    can someone help?

    I'm adding more information:
    in Finder, my iMovie folders are all visible and accessible.  When I click on a clip from iMovie Events folder, Quicktime opens and plays the clip.  ALL my video is not missing - it just isn't showing up in the Event Library!
    This happened all of a sudden, while I was working on iMovie project (on both computers).
    All my Projects are intact, and play when I open them.

    Hi
    Nitin is correct if there is no HR then it is difficult to set up resource planning based on workforce. Nitin is also correct in poinitng out that yu do not have to implement HR fully, just set up the personeel master data (HR Mini Master) with a basic set of data infotypes.
    If however you do not plan to set up HR ot the personnel master then you need to do creative thinking -  e.g. set up all your people as individual work centres and assign to activites - the work centre description can be the name of the person and the workcentre number can be the employee number - restrcitcions is the field length, etc - however the down side of all this is that standard reports with personnel number number will not suffice and you will have to do some work for your reporting - not major as the data is stored in SAP tables
