A number of imported photos from iphoto in imovie project all show the same image whilst the preview before dragging them in is correct. What could be the problem?

A number of photos from iphoto used in imovie project all show the same image when playing back. The previw when clicking and dragging them and also the pictures in the storyline. Yet when playing the clip a previous immage keeps on appearing. What could be the problem?

You created a mess and there is no solution - with the actions you have taken those photos are gone unless you have access to them from some other source - they existed in two place - in your iPhoto library and on your backup drive - you have traded the backup drive and restore an earlier iPhoto library so all you have is what you have

  • When I import photos from iPhoto into iMovie, it becomes blurry, why????

    I have 10.0.4 version of iMovie.  I have made movies before & have never had this problem.  The pictures are clear in iPhoto.  I have tried making it a "still" photo instead of using the Ken Burns effect...still blurry.  Please help!!!  This is a video for my nephew's wedding so I need it fixed!

    My solution was rather easy-too easy. A "duh" moment...... All I had to do to be able to put photos on my iMovie was to create a new iMovie project-I thought that one that was there when I opened iMovie for the first time was a 'project' but apparently not. Once I went to File--->New Project and then found the iPhoto library where the pictures were that I wanted in the project, I could now drag those pictures into the top left corner. Like I said, it was a "duh" moment for me and I hope this helps you out! It was so simple but not obvious at first. Let me know if it works for you or not. Judy

  • When importing photos from iphoto to Aperture....

    When importing photos from iphoto to Aperture 3 it shows two versions of each image. One is original and one is iphoto edited.  It shows this for every picture even if it was never edited in iphoto.  Has anyone ever experienced this?  Is so, what image should I use to edit in iphoto?

    This is asked and covered a lot here, a search of the list will bring up numerous other threads covering this. Also the More Like This box on the right side of the page will show you other posts on this topic.
    This post, Duplicates when importing from iPhoto is the most recent example.
    Briefly iPhoto took even the most trivial change to an image as an edit and created a new image. The most common reason for this is rotated images.
    As for which image of the two you want to keep, that's entirely up to you. If there is really no difference between the two then you can keep either it makes no difference.
    The thread I linked to above will explain how to use Aperture's filters to gather up all of one or the other.

  • When i import my photos from iPhoto to iMovie they become blurry

    Whenever I import photos from iphoto to imovie they get really blurry.  Is there something I am doing wrong.  Most of the photos have been emailed to me.

    How did you import them?

  • How to effectively import photos from iPhoto

    I had a pretty large iPhoto library and try to keep it under control by exporting photos into folders on an external HD. I also have mobile me albums from multiple computers live.
    I tried importing photos from iPhoto into Aperture and encounter problems. Not only do events come in as projects, but a huge number of what I thought were deleted photos from those exported events, Mobile Me albums, etc were imported. It seems that this is clogging everything up because Aperture is running so slowly. Also, I feel like something is wrong because if I open up a photo in Aperture, it takes several seconds to become clear.
    I do not understand why it is running so slowly. Any tips on how to organize my new library and how Aperture stores the files.
    Thanks for the help

    I'm not an Aperture expert, but I would empty the trash in your iPhoto library (open iPhoto, right-click on the trash and empty), and then import. I believe that Aperture's projects are equivalent to iPhoto's events. It can take time for not only the import but for Aperture to process everything and generate previews, etc...
    I imported about 12,200 pictures and 300 videos on a dual quad-core Mac Pro and it took a couple hours to import everything and finish all the processing.

  • How can I import video and photos from iphoto to imovie?

    Hi, I am having trouble importing media from iphoto into imove (imovie 10.5)
    I am using a macbook pro 13 inch, early 2013 running mavericks.
    I have created an event in imovies into which I would like to import both photos and videos from my iphoto library. However, when the import window opens, the list of options from where I can import has iphoto, but it is not clickable; I can not open it.
    I have successfully imported from iphoto in the recent past on the same computer, but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong this time.
    Thanks for any suggestions

    OK, according to
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3290
    your camera is supported by iMovie 9.  Perhaps the question is better asked in the iMovie forum.  Would you like me to ask a moderator to move the thread?

  • Iphoto 9.5 won't import photos from iPhoto 7.5.  Library will not update using the iPhoto library upgraded application.

    iphoto 9.5 won't import photos from iPhoto 7.5.  Library will not update using the iPhoto library upgrader application.  Repeatedly says it can't locate photos even when told to cancel.  I think the photos in question are in Nikon RAW format.

    iPhoto 9.5 immediately tries to "upgrade" my library using the upgrader.
    iPhoto 9.5 asks you to run the upgrader to prepare the library for 9.5. It then will update the library to its format.
    You need to do the following:
    1 - go to your Applications/Utilities folder and double click on the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application. 
    2 - select Choose Library, navigate to your iPhoto library, select it and let the upgrader do its thing.
    3 - launch iPhoto 9.5 to open and finish the conversion of the library.

  • How can i import photos from iphoto 9.2.3 to 9.6

    I am migrating from a 2009 ibook to a Macbook pro 13.3 retina. How can  can I import photos from iPhoto 9.2.3 library to  the 9.6 iPhoto.
    I am running 10.6.8 snow leopard on the ibook which has 4Gb of memory.
    I tried but it just loaded icons to the 9.6 library.
    I am reluctant to go to Yosimite on the ibook and it seems this would not solve it anyway.

    You don't import one library to another.  Just copy the library from the iBook to the Pictures folder on shout new MacBook Pro. If you have another library already on the MBP rename it so you don't overwrite it with the old library.
    Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the newly copied library and let iPhoto convert it to the new version.
    Do you have photos in the library on the new MacBook Pro that you want to combine with the older library?

  • How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-library?

    How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-library?

    How to access iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
    1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library. 
    2. Control-click the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
    3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto. 
    Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
    4. Control-click the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate. 
    5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
    6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop.
    7  Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired.  

  • I'm working to set up my website with iWeb and it won't let me import photos from iPhoto! Whats up?

    I'm working to set up my website with iWeb and it won't let me import photos from iPhoto! Whats up?

    Will Image capture (in your applications foldr) see them and bring to disk? If so then once they are safely off the memory card and on disk use the camera's format command to reformat the memory card
    and can you impoprted to iPhtoo from disk? Will preview open the photos on disk?

  • HT204414 how to merge my iPhoto Library into my Photos System Library or how to import photos from iPhoto to Photos?

    Can anyone tell me how to merge my iPhoto Library into my Photos System Library or how to import photos from iPhoto to Photos?

    How many did you trash at one go? iPhoto will baulk and possibly corrupt if you try trash too many at one go. Expereinced users recommend getting rid of them in batches of about 100 or so.
    What's your plan for the remaining images in the iPhoto Library (the 2k photos and 4 videos)?

  • When trying to import photos from iPhoto organizer 12 crashes

    I installed new photoshop elements 12 and when It attempted to import photos from iphoto 9.5.1 it get to the 7th picture and then locks up, I have to force quit app. What can the problem be? I tried importing a few photos and it worked ok, I attempted to import using files and folders and it locked up again.

    You're sure you want to stop using iphoto? Then I would try it this way instead:
    Export each event in your iphoto library separately, put the photos where you want to keep them and use "from files and folders". If there's an event that the organizer chokes on, then you'll have to go into that one photo by photo to see where the problem lies. (You are aware that using "from iphoto" is duplicating your entire iphoto library, so you don't want to do that AND keep using iphoto, right?)
