Adding iMovie 9.0.9 back into Launchpad?

Hi,
With my upgrade to Mavericks, I now have the (inferior) iMovie 10 installed in my Launchpad, with iMovie 9.0.9 removed.
I've gone back to using iMovie 9.0.9 since iMovie 10 removed the ability to export as MOV and its MP4 output files do not play smoothly on my Apple TVs. Very disappointing since the source video is from my iPhone 5 and my entire workflow is Apple-based.
So, my problem is: I am unable to add iMovie 9.0.9 to the Launchpad.
iMovie 9.0.9 is in the Applications folder top level, but does not show up in Launchpad.
Launchpad's search window shows iMovie 10 but not iMovie 9.0.9
Dragging and dropping iMovie 9.0.9 over to the Launchpad icon in the Dock doesn't do anything
Any tips on how to get iMovie 9.0.9 to show up in Launchpad?

Just a workaround, but you can add an automator app that launches iMovie 9. TO do that, launch Automator and:
- Choose type for your document: Application
- Drag the "Run shell script" action onto your blank workflow
- Replace the default "cat" command with the following in bold: open -a "iMovie 9.x.x"
(replace 9.x.x with your actual version number; also include the quotation marks)
- File - Save...: and name it something like iMovie 9 Launcher.app
Then, to change the default Automator icon do the following:
- Open Finder, and go to your Applications folder
- Locate your actual iMovie 9 app, single click on it and press COMMAND-i to open the properties panel
- Click on the tiny gold-and-black icon at the top left (not the large one at the bottom!) and press COMMAND-c to copy the icon.
- Close the properties panel, then locate your new iMovie 9 Launcher app. Press COMMAND-i again
- Click on the tiny Automator icon at the top left of the properties panel
- Press COMMAND-v to paste the iMovie 9 icon over
- Close the properties panel and enjoy your new Launchpad iMovie 9 icon!

How do you get an app back into Launchpad?

I accidentally deleted iMovie '11 from my launchpad. How do I get it back in there? I have tried deleting the application from my computer and then re-installing it via the app store. When I tried this, the application icon was in launchpad when it was installing but after it had finished installing, it was no longer there. It is not in any other page on Launchpad either - I tried searching for it.
How can I get the application icon back into Launchpad?

You can try resetting Launchpad to defaults

That should restore it to show all apps in your Applications folder.

DVD made by iMovie and iDVD transfered back into iMovie

Ok so the problem is... i made 2 DVD copies of a rough draft version of this video i am making. In the mean time my eMac went through logic board mayhem. So i had tried to back up my movies but for some reason it stopped and in all i dont have the video n e more except for on these discs. Is there ANY way that this movie project can be saved put back into iMovie for my final touches?!?

there are many ways....
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast6/7 allows converting to dv/import dvd, hit apple-k
* connect your Camera to a DVD-player and copy to tape/use as converter

How to put movie from disc back into imovie?

Hi, I have just put a disc that I created using iMovie and iDVD back into my G4 using Disc Utility. Seems easy to burn an exact copy, but I would like to get the movie on the disc back into iMovie so I can edit it further and make it part of a new iDVD project. Is this possible?
Thanks
Chris

Hi, Christine,
Yes, you can do it. See this for some help/suggestions as to what to use and how to do it: http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?128@@.68b7d7a6
You will lose some quality but it may not be so much to bother you.
You should always save your finished movies back to the camcorder DV tape. That way, you can always reimport that footage into any new iMovie project.
Either way, you will not be able to do the tight editing as you could on the original iMovie, but you can certainly add it to other movies, insert new movies, and delete some portions of your first movie. Remember that the audio you added as separate tracks will now be incorporated into the video and will not appear as separate tracks under the video.
Hope this is helpful!

Everytime i eject my ipod and reconnect it all my music is gone. and sometimes while i try adding music to it. itunes completely freezes. please help. and sometimes when i plug it back into my PC i have to rename my ipod and such

Everytime i eject my ipod and reconnect it all my music is gone. and sometimes while i try adding music to it. itunes completely freezes. please help. and sometimes when i plug it back into my PC i have to rename my ipod and such

Antivirus has a tendency to freeze iTunes sync Operation with iPod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your iPod filesystem, so when iTunes can't read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
My suggestion.
Connect your iPod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete.
Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
Stop the Antivirus program
Connect your Ipod to the PC
When iTunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well, since you got such a huge library.
When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
If this doesn't resolve your problem, then let me know.
Good Luck!

How do I move a project from an external drive back into Imovie

I recently bought an Iomega external hard drive to store documentary movies so that I wouldn't jam up my Imac's free space. However, after I moved an imovie/idvd project to it, and wanted to make changes, I could not move the project back into the Imac's drive. (It also would not burn from the external, giving me a multiplex error) When I tried to move the movie back into Imovie on the Imac it said Quicktime couldn't parse it. I saw various posts about parsing, but not about specifically about moving a project from an external drive. Can anyone offer any suggestions? It seems to me that I should be able to move a project back and forth without that much trouble.

Sounds like you have a DVD format (MPEG-2) and not an iMovie Project file.
The key phrases are "multiplex" and "parse". Both suggest MPEG-2 format when opened in QuickTime. It would also throw an error -2048 message if MPEG-2.
But another issue could be the file format of the external drive. Most ship pre-formatted for the Windows OS's but a Mac user should format using HFS+ (and others). If you didn't format the drive before moving the large iMovie Project onto it it may have become severely fragmented if the external used FAT 16 or FAT 32 (very common) formats. They have a 2 or 4 GB file size limit, respectively and would have made your Project unreadable when moved back and forth.
Use the Disk Utility app to find out the format of your external drive.

I have DVD's that I made from iMovie. I would like to know a way I can bring them back into a file that I can somehow transfer to my iPad, so I can show movies on it, the iPad.

Pad2, the new iPad Supported Video Formats & Movie Formats
H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
Here's one way to install. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

How do I Retrieve imovie projects from and external drive back into my mac internal drive

How do I Retrieve imovie projects from and external drive back into my mac internal drive?
Thank You

Every working drive, Internal or External, should produce an Icon on your Desktop. If you cannot see those, click on the Desktop (to get Finder) and choose Preferences off the Finder Menu. The general pane has checkboxes for "Show these items on the Desktop:"
Double click the Icon for your External Drive to open it. Open the folders on it until you find the Items you want to copy. Drag them to the Icon of your Internal Drive, or open the folder where you want them to land and drop them in there.
A drive that does not appear on the desktop after you have asked it to may be damaged. But it would be smart to do a Restart to see if it is recognized again at next Startup.

I have a MacBook Pro and I created a movie using imovie but once I put the DVD back into my computer it said it was blank! Why?

Please HELP!!!!

AFAIK, you can't author a DVD using iMovie - again, AFAIK, you need authoring software such as iDVD or Toast Titanium or something similar.

Adding an OVM server back into OVM Manager after a reload

We have created a sandbox environment to test Oracle virtualization and had 2 physical servers setup. One running Oracle OVM and the other Oracle Linux. The Oracle Linux box had OVM Manager installed and was using local storage for the repository.
After about a month of running the Oracle Linux box was reloaded without saving any of the OVM Manager configuration information. After reloading the Oracle Linux box and installing OVM Manager my first issue was adding the OVM server back into a pool. We were getting the error that it was already being managed by another host. After a quick search of the Oracle forum I found a post suggesting that we stop the ovs-agent on the OVM box and remove a file.
These were the commands:
# service ovs-agent stop
# rm /etc/ovs-agent/db/server
# service ovs-agent start
After doing this I was able to discover and add the server into a pool. The next issue was when I went to look at the virtual machines hosted on the OVM machine. All 6 of the virtual machines that were created now show as "orphan_004fb0000060000...". In digging around I noticed that the repository for the local storage was not setup so when I go to try add the local disk back as a repository and I select "create a data repository: select physical disk" it comes back as blank.
If I click the storage tab and look under local file systems I see the disk and it has location repository specified and server listed under presented servers.
I am thinking the mapping is somehow messed up after adding the host back to a new OVM Manager and I need to relink the storage to the repository but am a little lost as to how to accomplish this.
I am trying to avoid reloading the entire OVM server so I don't lose the work already done with the existing virtual machines.

To answer your second question first, It is an unclustered server pool.
When I run the refresh I get an error. Below are the details:

Import DVD back into iMovie

I made a homemade DVD using iMovie/iDVD - this was 6 years ago
- I didn't save any content.
I want to import the video of the DVD back into iM - how do I do it?
I also want to upload it to youtube.
thanks

Hi
My list on this.
*DVD back for futhur editing*
A. don't put a mini DVD into Your Mac unless it’s a trayloaded DVD burner/reader
B. iMovie’08 prob. 09 can import from DVD (homemade without copyprotection)
C. Read what Karsten collected.
D. I prefere one of two
• Copy to miniDV tape from set-top DVD-player --> Camera -or-
• Roxio Toast™ - Can back convert to streamingDV for iMovie or FinalCut
DVD back to iMovie.
.. and here the complete 'full 9 yards' ... .
//discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3822853&#3822853
DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and
made for any processing as editing... or, as honorable forum member
QuicktimeKirk stated. I use the analogy of the old Polaroid
"instant" cameras. Push the button, wait for the print to develop and
show it off. ..
for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in
recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds.
• DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro. 90$)
• Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
• Cinematize >60$
• Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
• Toast 6/7/8/9/10 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
• connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
• Drop2DV (free) a free tool claiming to convert DVDs into dv-stream...
• Use iSquint for your conversions . www.iSquint.org
from. Bobby Keene
none of these apps override copyprotection mechanisms as on commercial dvds...

How do i import footage from a dvd that i made on imovie, back into imovie?

How do I import footage from a dvd that i made on imovie, back into imovie?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.

Quicktime back into iMovie ?

Hi
I upgraded from iMovie 3 to iMovie HD the other day with iLife' 05. When I tried to open the project, it asked if I wanted to upgrade and warned me I wouldn't be able to open it in older versions anymore, that was fine with me so I clicked. For some reason, when the movie launches the file is blank but I have a Quicktime version instead! I really don't want to have to go through the media folder and start again.
So, can I import the Quicktime movie back into iMovie so I can continue tweaking it? Or is that it now and if that's the case, can I still export it to dvd?
Also, I have some old movies clogging up my HD that I don't want anymore and I can't delete them. I've had a box open which lists all my documents on the HD but when I highlight the file to delete, or try and drag it to the trash, it doesn't go. Do I have to find a main source and delete it from there? Thanks.

I must confess that I assumed that the two audio tracts in iMovie were stereo, because in expert settings one can define stereo or mono. On one iMove track I had music, and on the other I had my voice. If it is exported then I assumed one must have access to both tracts to hear them. Since on my friend's computer I was only hearing one side, I came to the conclusion that he was not hearing the other tract. I could be mistaken, but that was my conclusion.

Importing completed iMovie back into iMovie for additional editing

My daughter recently completed a mini movie, courtesy of an Apple Film camp...lots of fun.
Her completed movie, made at the Apple Store using iMovie, was placed on a DVD. The DVD plays the movie, which is great, but i am not able to import the movie back into iMovie, so that I can edit it, or rather, shrink the size, for my daughter for use in other platforms.
Everytime I try to open the DVD, I have files for audio and files for video, which can't be imported in, and no complete iMovie file.
I'm probably doing something very stupid, and if somebody could help, that would be great.
Thanks!

Once you encode your movie for DVD, it changes the format/codec to MPEG2 which is no longer readable by iMovie.
I suggest you read the Recent User Contributed Tips at the top of this forum - the one by AppleMan 1958 - How to import a home movie on DVD into iMovie for editing:
