-43 error when import Imovie into Imovie

Hello,
I want to import an imovie into another Imovie but I get a -43 error : saying impossible to import the file. Quicktime could not analyse it : -43.
I removed plug ins from library/Imovie
What I did : open a Imovie project. Dragged a project from the finder into Imovie. And got the error message.
thanks for your help.
eg

Welcome to the forum, Emmanuel.
iMovie HD isn't able to import another iMovie HD project. Trying to import it causes an error.
Remember, the iMovie HD project isn't a single file and it's not a movie. It's a package, a special kind of Mac OS folder containing lots of other files and folders. To look inside the package, Control-click on the project icon and choose Show Package Contents from the popUp menu that appears.
One way to import Project A into Project B is to open Project A in iMovie, select all the clips, Copy, open Project B, and Paste the clips into Project B. Do the same for the audio tracks, if you want those too.
To avoid iMovie importing the same file more than one time, be sure to Copy and Paste all the clips (video or audio) at the same time.
If you want the Timeline of Project A to arrive in Project B as a single clip, import the Timeline Movie.mov that's inside the Cache folder of Project A.

  • Error when importing cd into itunes

    when i insert a purchased cd i cannot import it into librbay for trf to ipod.
    I get an error message
    error occurred while converting file - the required folder cannot be found.
    im a mac virgin and have had great fun with my new mini, it blitzes the pc's but is it possible i cannot rip original cds?

    yes i can view the contents of the cd in i tunes but when i press the import button, i see the error blah blah cannot find folder.....
    because i have the itunes librbary pointing to my external drive (which was formated and connected to my windows pc i think there may be a permissions issue because itunes plays the tracks but i cannot write to the drive of change its contents.
    so this may be the reason, and i do not know the solution.
    maybe i should copy he drive contents to the macs hard disk and re format or something the drive with the mac. ... but i do not know how.
    what do you think? or am i missing the point
    thanks

    I do not get this error with other tables and this file only with this table. Any help would be greatly appreciated, let me know if more info is needed.

    Thanks that did work out for me. However, I am still curious why I am getting that message in the Enterprise Manager. Well I was able to upload my info into the database and it was a better solution too.

  • "Unable to log URL" error when importing WSDL into Web Service connection

    Hello Experts
    I'm using Xcelsius Engage and I'd like to use Web Service connection.
    I've developed my own Web service (that is using 2 other web service inside it).
    and now I'm trying to import it into the Xcelsius (connection --> Web service connection).
    And I get the follwoing error:
    "Unable to log URL"
    When I browse to my wsdl file in IE the file is loaded with no problem.
    When trying to import other URLs it also works fine (for example: http://www.xignite.com/xFinancials.asmx?wsdl)
    Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Miki

    Hi Matt
    Thanks a lot!!!
    Indeed the solution was in the follwoing thread:
    VB.net code to create XML
    Parsing the query result fixed the problem.
    For others who might have the same problem:
    Here's a working web service (C# code, for vb code follow the link to the thread above):
    public Service () {
        public struct QueryResult
          public string SlpName;
          public string Commission;
        [WebMethod]
      public QueryResult[] RunQuery()
          // Open Connection - Query Data from DB table - Close connection
          SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=(local);Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=SBODemoUS");
          SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(
            "SELECT SlpName, Commission FROM OSLP", connection);
          DataTable DT_QryResult = new DataTable();
          adapter.Fill(DT_QryResult);
          connection.Close();
          // Parse data to be forward to Xcelsius
          QueryResult[] QryRes = null;
          QryRes = new QueryResult[DT_QryResult.Rows.Count];
          int i=0;
          foreach (DataRow row in DT_QryResult.Rows)
            QryRes<i>.SlpName = row["SlpName"].ToString();
            QryRes<i>.Commission = row["commission"].ToString();

  • Error when importing audio into CS5.5

    I saw that some others had asked this question, but the solutions did not work for me.  I am using an Actionscript 3 file (an out of the box template purchased online) and cannot get any audio to import into the .fla file.  The audio files are in .mp3 format and were edited in Audition.  I tried renaming the files and when that didn't work I tried exporting them to .wav format.  Despite that, I am still getting error messages that the file could not be imported.  I also tried closing out of all my Adobe apps and re-opening only Flash, but that didn't work either.  Any solutions?

    Thank you so much! That actually worked! I had figured out a work around of cutting and pasting into new file via Audacity and exporting (this wouldn't work via Audition), but I'll be glad to be able to use Audition again.

  • Error when importing file into CS5

    When I tried to import an Illustrator CS5 file into Flash CS5, I got an error from Windows saying that the program "stopped working" and it was searching for solutions to the problem. When it found no solutions, it said that it had to close the program. I've tried three times now and the same thing keeps happening. Has anyone else encountered this and, if so, do you know how to fix it? Please let me know. Thanks!
    *Pooja*

    Hi there,
    I can reproduce the crash. It's seems to be related to Importing all layers to Stage, and selecting the "Place objects at original position" option. All other combinations seem to not crash, so at least it helps isolate what's happening and provides an option for you to import your artwork and continue with your site. I will file a bug and send this to the correct folks for evaluation - I'm not too sure what the conflict is between the AI file and Flash (it's not due to not having AI installed).
    Thanks for posting it!

  • Error when importing .csv into Address Book. Address,Street etc doesnt show

    I saved my excel contact list to either Tab Delimeted .txt or .csv file. Then when i import in Address book as Test file, it does not import the address. And when i click on the tabs to import, it keeps loading and hang.
    Even if i dont import the address line, those underlined were not shown even though detected.
    My columns are:
    First / Last / Job Title / Company / Address / Street / City / _*Postal Code*_ / Country / State / Phone / Work / Phone Fax

    Are you trying to import from within the AB application, menubar File > Import > VCards? If so, what happens if, in Finder, you just double-click on the VCF file?

  • Why are the movies I took on my iPad long and skinny with black edges when I import them into iMovie

    I took several short video clips on my iPad and when I imported them into iMovie they are long and skinny with black on both sides. My other movies from my camcorder fill the frame. How can I convert them to be full frame. They are .mov format from the iPad?

    From what you describe, you probably held your iPad vertically rather than horizontaly when you shot your movie.
    The picture in iMoive is a rectangle oriented horizontally, so it's showing your vertical movie as large as it can.
    If you cropped your vertical picture to fit the horizontal ratio of iMovie you'd have to cut off a lot of the picture.
    Soeone even made a mock PSA about this subject.

  • Error while importing music in iMovie 11 From itunes 10

    Error while importing music in iMovie 11
    I have the same error explained in a other post which was still left unanswered
    I have this sound problem after reorganising folders by itunes, i tried to delete al files in itunes and also
    deleted the xml file in the itunes dir, created new playlists, but still i have no music sound in imovie timeline
    after dragging a mp3 into it. When i preview the file in imovie it souds ok.

    I'm having the exact same issue, but still haven't figured out what it is. I note that at the top of this thread it indicates that there are two "helpful" entries and one "solved" entry, but I can't find the solved one, so maybe someone will repost it here or kindly link to it.
    There is one icon missing though.
    As I read through the excellent tutorial at http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/imovie_09stone.html I scroll down to the point where he talks about dragging music in from iTunes, which is what I'm trying to do. I can see, in his screen shot, the extra little icon that is a red oval and a white "1" in it. I don't get that icon when I am trying to drag my music into the video. I do get the green and white plus icon when I try to drag my music in. Also I DO get BOTH the red 1 and the green plus when I try dragging in a sound effect, which I can do with no problem. But why not the music?
    I've been able to drag in music with no problem in other productions, so I can't figure out what is going on with this one. I'm sure there is a setting somewhere that got flipped, but I can't figure out where.
    In desperation I also tried adding an extra title slide at the end of my video just to make sure there is more video time than music time in the production, but that didn't help at all.
    Any help guys?

    Hi
    Due to some kind of copy protection in iTunes - I don't copy directly from this in iMovie
    to my projects. (Most often the result of doing it in iMovie is a DVD without any sound)
    I do
    • In iTunes - collect needed audio into a new Playlist
    • then burn this out as an Audio-CD .aiff (NOT .mp3)
    • This CD I copy into a folder on my Mac (often containing other material that's connected to the project)
    • And then I drag and drop these .aiff files into my movie project in iMovie.
    This works Greatly and even more so when I do my DVD.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Import m2t into iMovie HD

    I want to edit m2t files. I hope to import them into iMovie HD. I understand that using QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback and MPEG Streamclip that I can convert the files into something that iMovie HD can use.
    If I use that option what format would give the best quality after converting from the m2t.
    I also wonder if I buy QuickTime Pro and QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback, will I be able to import the m2t file directly into iMovie without using MPEG Streamclip.
    Any information on these topics is appreciated.
    PowerBook G4 1.5GHz/512GB/80GB/SuperDrive/BT/APX/Backlit KB   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   1GB/100GB

    I decided to buy the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback and downloaded the free MPEG Streamclip. I went to the export suggested by Karsten and it only gave 4:3 aspect ratios as choices. I decided to convert to MPEG; that seemed to keep full quality, but no sound came through QuickTime. The m2t file and the converted MPEG both play the sound in VLC. Converting the file to MPEG with MP2 audio played in QuickTime with sound, however when importing to iMovie HD, the progress fails very quickly without any report of an error. I have not yet tried importing the MPEG that had no sound in QuickTime into iMovie but that will be my next step. They tacked the HD acronym onto the iMovie title, but it sure is a pain in the *** to work with the HD content I have.

  • Can't import videos into iMovie

    Hello, there!
    I just captured a few videos with my screen capture app on my windows laptop. After I transferred them onto my iMac and converted them into .mp4 files i wanted to import them into iMovie but when i selected them only video 4 and 6 out of 6 videos imported into iMovie. i don't know whats the problem when i try again to import the other videos he is loading for like 1 second and nothing happens. i have already tried to restart iMovie and have also restarted my mac.
    Also, this is not the first time something like this happens. but last time the problem just disappeared after a few retries...
    please help! i want to upload them to youtube as soon as possible!

    iMovie uses QuickTime file formats or DV Stream files directly from a camcorder.
    If your files don't open or play properly in QuickTime Player they will not "import" into iMovie.
    If you're authoring on a PC you must keep this basic fact as part of your your export scheme.
    iPod videos are usually 320X240 and will not look good when scaled up to DV dimensions. Some use 480 width MPEG-4 video codecs that could scale but you may not be happy with the results.
    Most Windows exports use Windows only codecs and this is the reason you're not seeing the video. Try exporting as a DV format (blah.dv) from Movie Maker. It may only appear as an option export to .AVI using those codecs.

  • Trouble Importing Photos into iMovie

    I am trying to import photos into iMovie and am having trouble. They look like they are importing OK, and when the import is through (the red bar has finished loading) the picture disappears and the clip becomes blank. This is happening when I import from the finder, from iPhoto, or from FILE>Import, and with lots of different photo sizes, none seem to work. My iMovie project file is located on an external drive with tons of space. I have plenty of space of the startup disk, so I don't know why this is happening, and it was working fine a few days ago. Any ideas?

    I had this problem last year (August-Sept 2007), and I'm having it again now (August 2008). When I import jpeg photos from iPhoto to iMovie, they turn black and are not accessible in iMovie. In addition, this time when I imported several photos, the replay of the iMovie became jerky. When I threw out the photos, the movie became smoother, the way it was originally. There seems to be some sort of bug that has not been fixed in over a year.

  • Trouble importing video into iMovie from External HD

    I have video from my Panasonic Full HD camera.  I have already transferred the video off the camera and onto an external hard drive.  When I try to import the video into iMovie those files are grayed out.  Does anyone have any idea how to make this work?
    It is all my video of my son's first year since birth!

    It is very important that when you transferred the video off the camera, you kept all files and folders from the camera. If you did, you can open iMovie and use FILE/IMPORT FROM CAMERA ARCHIVE and navigate to the folder that contains the contents that you removed from the camera.
    In the future, open iMovie and use FILE/IMPORT FROM CAMERA. This will bring up an import screen. There you can click a button that says Create Camera Archive. This will automatically get you all the files you need off the camera, and it gives you a good backup.
    You can also import directly into iMovie from this screen.
    If you did not preserve the contents of the camera - for example, you just copied the .mts files, but did not copy the rest of the files and folders, you will need a third party app to convert the .mts files so that iMovie can read them. Two apps that people use for this are ClipWrap and Voltaic HD. They are pricey, but if you did not copy the full camera contents, this may be your best bet.

  • Importing mpegs into imovie

    Trying to figure out how to import movie clips from my sony cybershot digital camera into iMovie. The files are mpeg's. When I try to import them into iMovie it won't allow it, although when I imported AVI files from my Cannon digital camera it worked fine.
    Is mpeg streamclip going to help me here?

    Hi Tim:
    Yes, Streamclip will help you.
    BTW-the latest version is now available. look at what Matti has to say about it!
