Adding a title to a clip makes the image pause and not respond correctly.

Hi
I have Imovie running on my Mac book and when I add a title to a clip, the image when pauses (audio continues).
The other error that occurs is that when the title is put in place there is a jump in the audio and video like the clip has been cut and a few frames have been removed or some times added.
Ilife came free with my mac so I cant re install it. Also the new Imovie is not something I'm after. But if the free download comes with all the effects etc then I may consider geting the new Ilife 08.
So whats going on in Imovie 06?
any one?

It may just be that you have insufficient disk space, or are storing your project on an external disk that is not formatted for Apple. It should be Mac OS extended or Mac OS extended (journaled).
IF none of the above apply, for the heck of it try closing iMovie and trashing the Fonts Collections Folder (NOT the Font Book) located in user/Library/Font Collections. When iMovie is relaunched it will create a new Fonts Collection Folder with the info that it needs. Inexplicably, that sometimes resolves these glitches. You could also try removing any duplicate fonts that you find in your Font Book Folder. (They will have a black dot next to them.) Select any with a black dot and then go to the Edit menu and select Resolve Duplicates.
If none of the above works, you can always try closing the iMovie project and then trashing the com.apple.iMovie.plist file located in your User/Library/Preferences folder. When you relaunch iMovie a new iMovie.plist file will be created.
You can repair permissions through the Apple Utility App.
Some of the more experienced tech persons on this forum may have some better suggestions.

  • I can import my first clip to the video library, but not the second clip. I tried dragging-dropping and using the "E" key, but only the first clip will show up in the library. I use IMovie 9.0.9 and OSX 10.8.5. with no problems until yesterday.

    I can drag my first clip from the New Event window into the Project Library, but not the second. I can highlight the second clip in the New Event window, but it won't "drag". The "E" key works for the first clip, but not the second.I've been using IMovie daily and the problem just appeared. No upgrades to the computer and no new software installed.  IMovie 9.0.9 and OSX 10.8.5

    Thanks victoryhat.  I learned some new things from this very clear tutorial.  But it didn't answer my question about why the titles don't stay with the video when I export it.
    He did mention something that might be a clue however.  When he talked about importing a title he created as an image, he noted that he was careful to make the image the same size as the video he was adding it to: 1280 x 720.  Since I took the video with an iPhone in the vertical position, my video image isn't the same size and orientation as the titles.
    Maybe there is a way I should be setting the screen for this size???  I'll go back and play around.  Meanwhile thanks for alerting me to Gary Rosenzweig's MacMost tutorials.  Very clear.  I'll look for more.

  • How do I make a table of contents for a collection of six short stories that is after the legal page and NOT in the front on an unnumbered page?

    How do I make a table of contents for a collection of six short stories that is after the legal page and NOT in the front on an unnumbered page?
    When I first started I made a title page and then pasted in my first story from a .TXT file. After cleaning up I went back to the front a couple of empty lines ahead of the story and typed in the story title.  Unlarged the font size and centered it, then

    You can't do that. This is what the Pages User Guide, downloadable from your Pages Help menu, says:
    Creating and Updating a Table of Contents
    Each table of contents (TOC) you create using a Word Processing template lists only the content that follows it, up until the next table of contents. If you want a master table of contents for the entire document, it must be the only table of contents, and it must be at the beginning of the document.
    You can do it manually though.

  • How can I restore my data from iCal? I didn't make any backup, but I use  time machine with an external HD. I deleted iCal when I deleted my gmail account. I have tried to restore, but I can only restore the iCal software and not the data.

    How can I restore my data from iCal? I didn't make any backup, but I use  time machine with an external HD. I deleted iCal when I deleted my gmail account. I have tried to restore, but I can only restore the iCal software and not the data.

    So what is your question?
    If you forgot your encryption password:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.
    The above comes from here:

  • How to make the images show up on a linked file in Muse?

    I am wondering how to get my images to show up on the linked files in Muse.  Basically, in Muse, I have a page that links to other pages I designed in Dreamweaver.  I put the images in the image folder and when I upload the site, the page links to the Dreamweaver page ok but the images are missing.  This is a vital part of the site.  Any suggestions?

    If you made the pages with Dreamweaver then they should be on your system some place and you could make a "dreamweaver" folder inside your Muse site and upload the pages to that folder using the upload files option... see this thread talks about sound files but almost any file can be imported to muse
    I need a recommendation for a slick way to embed audio
    Another option is to link across to an online resource using the built in muse html editor but that has pit falls because once you link yourself outside the site you also lose some control of the content;
    For an example of this have a look at an old demo page I made http://chec-garry2.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
    When you click on the Brahminy Kite bird you are looking at what used to be called an Iframe but the problem of control is highlighted when you click the Blue Wren and sometimes get pop up adds… I could import the Blue Wren page into my Muse site to fix this issue and in your case that’s a good option but I didn’t because I don’t have copyright over that pages contents and didn’t want to steal someone else’s work.
    p.s. if you have got a demo of the  website/ pages online someplace that would help us see your problem.

    The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
    1)  I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access.  But do I have to  change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
    Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
    So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
    2)  Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
    N.Korean hackers.
    [Edit] Whoops-- one more question:  I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it.  What do I need to do?
    You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
    Look at Q3 here.

    Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

  • I would like to be able to size images by kilobytes instead of pixels--is this possible?  I use I-Contact which requires a maximum of 70kb per image.  For best quality I want to make the images as close to 70 as possible.  Currently I choose a size of 300

    I would like to be able to size images by kilobytes instead of pixels--is this possible?  I use I-Contact which requires a maximum of 70kb per image.  For best quality I want to make the images as close to 70 as possible.  Currently I choose a size of 300 pixels on the shortest side but sometimes this gives me an image of slightly greater than 70kb and sometimes the image is just 30-40kb.  Is there a way to be more precise in reaching but not exceeding 70 kb?

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
    You can opnly resize using the available options and file size is not one of them

  • IMovie will not import or play the clips at the proper speed and the audio and video do not match up.

    i have a samsung hd camcorder. it records at 40 fps, but iMovie will not play the clips at the proper speed and the audio and video do not match up. I have tried to record at standard quality to no avail. Help. thanks in advance.

    samsung sc-hmx10c     ntsc
    im guessing that is the speed it records at due to the fact imovie puts a blue 40 at the top left corner of every clip i import.

    That's going to be a ridiculous waste of money and energy.
    First of all, the current ATI drivers don't support multiple GPUs, so at the moment even a single 4870X2 would be only a 'normal' 4870 (which is quite a speed beast already). GFX drivers evolve rapidly, so things might look different next month, but when it comes to Linux and hardware there's one Golden Rule: stay away from the newest stuff and wait for proper support to get coded.
    I also wonder what power supply could possibly cope with the differences between idle and full load; that's way beyond 400W. But then, I'm one of those "quiet&green" types where >100W idle is already a bit much.
    I kind of understand that you want to get it done and not worry about hardware for the next 10 years or so, but that's simply not how the hardware world works and never did. At least not for the average consumer.

  • How do I make the image to a link?

    Something went wrong here, because the whole right side became the link, but the facebook logo is not working.
    Here is the image.
    Thanks!

    It's also missing any meaningful HTML to apply that link to!
    The code is so horrible I'm not sure there is a simple fix.  It appears that you are wanting that link to apply to the facebook image which is used as a background image -
    <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WE-SHOW-UP/198687606583?ref=ts%3Cimg%20s rc="></p>
        <span style="position: absolute; background: url(images/facebook_logo.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 250px; height: 150px; top: 420px; left: 160px; color:#600;"></span>
    But you cannot apply a link to a background image.  Ideally, you would have something like this -
    <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WE-SHOW-UP/198687606583?ref=ts%3Cimg%20s rc="><img src="images/facebook_logo.png"/></a></p>
    Where the image is contained within the anchor tags.  But that's not possible given the code we have been shown - the whole layout approach would need to be changed.
    Where did this code (*ew*) come from?

    Just drag them onto a blank page and arrange them as you wish.

  • I bought a movie on iTunes and when it loads up I can only play the bonus features and not the actual film. The title screen is also glitched and merges with the scene selection. I don't think it downloaded properly. what can I do?

    I bought a movie on iTunes and when it loads up I can only play the bonus features and not the actual film. The title screen is also glitched and merges with the scene selection. I don't think it downloaded properly. what can I do?

    It happens sometimes. Delete the current copies, don't hide from iTunes in the cloud if prompted, close iTunes, reopen, download from iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
    While downloading click the download icon at the top right and uncheck Enable simultaneous downloads. You may find it more reliable that way.

    My FaceTime will make the call but will not connect and will sometimes say call failed. What do i do?

    don't update to iOS7 just yet if you prefer 6.  Many are saying that's the cure, but there are lots of iOS7 users here who can't make Facetime work either.
    It would seem Apple has either a big problem on their hands, as this is now a week old, or they don't know how to fix it.  Either way, email Apple tech support your concerns
