Apple, please fix audio problems with iMovie

Ok, I have many iMovie projects, about 10. In one project when I add music from iTunes I can control the tracks fade, volume, everything I'm able to control. This is also possible when I make a new project and add music from iTunes.
So, this is possible in one project and all new projects.
But when I try to add music from iTunes to an existing project (all other 9 projects) the audio controls do not work. I can't mute the iTunes mp3 I can't fade it, NOTHING. Having bought my $6000 mac primarily for iMovie you can imagine how frustrating this is.
I've tried the following
Re-installing software
Deleting preferences
Clipping audio in garage band
Using different music, including different file types, eg .WAV
It's obviously a bug apple, please fix it asap.

Hi
This is a User to User forum - Apple rarely drops in to have a read.
Give them feedback if there is a bug (that can be repeated)
How about this.

  • How can I sync my IPOD Nano 4 to iTunes on my PC? I've already tried the sync button on iTunes and it says it is synced. I've also tried the 5 steps recommended by Apple to fix sync problems with no luck.

    How is your iPod configured to sync content from your iTunes library? Any error messages during the sync process? 
    You may want to reset warnings on the device by right->clicking on it under Devices and choosing Reset Warnings.  Then resync the iPod to see if any alerts appear.
    Is this the same computer you normally sync the Nano with?

    Have you tried contacting your ISP to see if they can talk you through a trace from your computer to phobos.apple.com?
    Some people with AOL were having problems and it turned out that their tracelog revealed connectivity issues.
    You say that a lot of people are having problems but I'm not having any problems up here in Canada connecting and I had no problem yesterday or on friday. I have had problems in the past but I assume that it was network issues on the ISP side since I had problems connecting to some other sites as well.

  • So close to fixing this problem with iMovie clip frame rate!

    Hi! Please help!
    I'm recording short videos in iMovie using the built-in camera on my Macbook Pro. I did this yesterday and again this morning without incident. Everything worked great. Then, this afternoon, I made another video - EXACTLY the same way I'd done the other ones - and yet, this time, the clip mysteriously recorded at 18fps instead of 30fps. As a result (I think) the audio is out of synch. I have detached the audio as some have suggested in other forums, but this has not fixed the problem.
    QUESTION: How can I convert the clip from 18fps to 30fps?? Is this even possible?? I'd really like to avoid re-recording, if at all possible.
    I am a novice. Please explain any solutions to me as though I am a child. Thank-you!

    I meant to say it only (if I may generalize here) makes a difference when you edit. Don't try to edit 30 fps material in a timeline meant for 25 fps. Very few applications can accomplish this with a good end result.
    Are you speaking about this particular change of frame rates or any?
    Having transfered Super 8 film that was shot at 18 fps, I have little choice but to change the rate. So far everything seems to be working out fine. For 24 fps iMovie does a pull-down of 1 1 2; for 30, 2 2 1. I'm a little confused as to whether I should use 24 or 30 fps. I'll be asking about this in a new thread.
    The easiest way to change a projects framerate is to edit the project xml file.
    Right click on your iMovie project file and choose "Show package contents..." (or something similar)
    Edit the "Project" file (no extension) using the free Textwrangler editor or a plist capable editor.
    Find the node "frameRate" and update to 30.
    Really? That's a cool trick! But it sounds like it could easily mess things up. Have you tried this and with what scenarios?
    or easier just create a new project

  • Apple please read: Serious problem with Spotlight indexing!

    My MacPro has a serious problem and I don't know what to do: Spotlight has been indexing for two weeks now, day and night. When I click the spotlight icon, the info box says that it is "calculating time", which I guess means that OSX tries to find out how long the indexing will take. Consol reports this line again and again (for the last two weeks):
    "...pple.launchd(1) (com.digidesign.fwfamily.helper (10466) posix_spawnp/"/Library/Application Support/ Digidesign/fireWire/DigidesignFireWireHelper", ...): No such file or directory"
    I removed Digidesign ProTools from this Mac two months ago, and I thought every files were removed. Obviously, Spotlight is trying to remove a file it cannot find... When I set all files to visible (with Terminal), there is NO file with the required name on my Mac.
    What is the solution? How do I get rid of this problem? It creates other problem, like stopping any security update I try to install. It also makes saving files veeeery slow, and applications freeze with the spinning wheel for half a minute or more quite often.
    I tried to reinstall MacOSX (archive and install), but it did not help. Then I had to authorize lots of plugins (for my music software) again, very annoying (and I lost some authorizations).
    Any serious help is what I need.

    Hi!
    This is another problem that is not related to Spotlight...
    launchd is the (sort of) mother of all processes on Mac OS X.
    It looks for "LaunchDaemons" and "LaunchAgents" in two folders "/Library" and "/System/Library" (there should be subfolders with the name "LaunchDaemons" and "LaunchAgents").
    Go into these subfolders and delete any trace that's left from Digidesign Protools...
    That should help to get rid off the error messages.
    Then look for other Console messages that start with "mds", "mdworker" or alike. The name of every process that is related to Spotlight starts with the letters "md" (metadata)...
    Check with the utility Activity Monitor which process is hogging CPU and/or disk...
    Cheers,
    Walter

  • Why does iOS 6 apple App Store keep on saying "cannot connect to iTunes Store" ?? Apple, please fix this problem or else I am switching to Samsung!!!

    Why does App Store keep crashing!!! It's completely ****!! I am going to buy an android phone if they don't fix this immediately!!!

    Basics from the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  I'll bet you've not tried any or all of these basic steps.
    BTW, we're users, here, not Apple.  So threating to buy an android phone not only makes you look like an idiot, but none of us users on this forum really give a **** what you do.

  • Apple, please fix Album tracking in iTunes

    I rip a CD I own, it has 17 songs and one song with a guest artist.  Let's call it Brad Paisley's Mud On The Tires, track 9 features Allison Krauss, so it is shown as a seperate album.  When I play the album, it doesn't play track 9!
    This is a very simple problem, we can go mess with each track in Get Info and modify each field one by one.  But, why should we?  Apple can fix this problem with one programmer and one week of work.  Go to it Apple, this is a stupid error to still have in iTunes after all these years.

    Well, yea, I get that a lot.
    I do a couple of things... In this case I would edit the metadata to be sure that all songs in the album are listed as "Brad Paisley" in the "Album Artist" field... The Allison Krause would show up in the "Artist" field, so you shouldn't lose that info, but you can check... Then I would go to the "Sorting" tab on the edit information (metadata) box and sort on "Album Artist", leaving "Artist" unchecked... Then I would sort the view on "Album by Artist" on my main iTunes screen... It should play all the songs in the album, including the Allison Krause...
    With lots of songs by lots of different artists on one album, I will make the "Album Artist" as "Various" and sort on "Album Artist" and then I will have all tracks, in order, if my view is on "Album by Artist"...
    This sounds complicated, but once you learn it, it becomes second nature...
    I refuse to upgrade to 11, so it may have changed, IDK

  • Apple, Please Fix Your Cinema Display Adapters Already

    I know this is not a new issue since there are already topics identical to my problem.  I bought my Cinema Display in 2007, since then I have had to buy 3-4 power adapters.  When they fail the screen goes black, then you unplug it and it works for a short time but as you keep using it the time they work keeps decreasing.  My question here is why, Apple, have you not fixed this problem which  I have had for the last 5 years?  The other issue besides money spent is my computer is basically worthless until Apple sends me the new part.  I either have to have a backup power supply for the Cinema Display or have a different brand monitor as a backup.  Apple, please fix this problem, I like the display, fix the adapter.

    Brian,
    I had this same issue and finally found a prefPane called SwitchResX that addresses the issue that I wish Apple had. It is designed to many other things but I only use it to deactivate a second display and it seems to work well for that.

  • Just installed iOS7 on iPhone 4.  Huge typing lag problem now.  Any fixes?  Apple please fix asap.

    I just installed iOS7 on my new iPhone 4.  Huge typing lag problem now.  Any fixes out there?  How do I uninstall this update.  The phone worked better without it.  Don't even like the new layout and icon design.
    Apple, please fix this now!!!

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Play count still doesn't work with 3.1.3. APPLE PLEASE FIX THIS!

    APPLE! PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM!
    I am getting tired of having to try an remember what episode of my shows I was on! I'm an avid anime watcher who queues up whole series' on my iPod Touch 3g 32GB and go to watch 12 episodes or so, connect the iPod, disconnect, go back to series, pow! they all report they are unwatched! Btw, I use Manually Manage Music settings, not auto sync.
    Same thing with my music. I know I have listened to one song at least 40 times, and still the play count is at 2. Because iTunes remembers to count it but can't remember to count the iPod's count when it counts.
    This is probably a REALLY EASY FIX, you guys are just so lazy to not fix this problem and say that Apple products have the best customer support?! If you want to boast that please fix the simple problems! I have a 70 episode series I'm starting soon and I don't want to have to right down where I left off.

  • Hello Apple? How do i fixed my problem with my ipad apps every time i open that apps it takes 10min. to play the games ant its getting LOST MODE and the ipad system is crashing

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Have you tried closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then doing a soft-reset and seeing that helps ? To close all apps :
    iOS 7: double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??

    Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??
    Message is working weird.
    I don't have internet service when I'm away from my WiFi, because my phone won't use LTE now.
    Should I wait for a IOS 8.3.1 update or reset my phone to factory and start over?
    If there's a fix coming when will we see it?
    (I'm using iPhone6 plus)
    I've tried everything else to fix the problems I'm having. Soft restart. Hard restart. Used your chat line. Called Verizon. Reset network settings.... Help!!!!!
    I've posted on the Apple Communities about all this and I've sent in a couple of bug reports.
    I live up in the mountains and MUST be able to access my Verizon LTE for information if there is a fire! I'm in California!

    I have a Verizon iPhone 6 and am having none of those problems.

    Didn't they already have you do that? If you haven't, yes, you should restore your phone as new and test.
