Are the music beds provided in iMovie copywritten or can it be used when posting to Facebook?

I used a music bed provided with iMovie '09 into a video and tried to post it to Facebook. Later, I got a notice from Facebook claiming that the video contained copywritten material. Is the music in iMovie royalty free so that I can post it to the Internet?

You can use it in FaceBook. I think that Apple owns the Copyrights, but you are issued a license to use them.
You can find the legalese in this Apple Document, section 2 G iii.
It can be tricky, because sometimes musicians will use the Apple jingles under this same license, and then copyright the results. You will have to explain to YouTube or FaceBook that you are licensed through Apple to use the track. It is usually a good idea to provide a credits page at the end of your movie AND in the description on YouTube or FaceBook detailing where you got the music and how you are licensed, but this will not keep the record companies from hassling you if one of their artists has also used the samples.

  • I have been working on an iMovie project. I turned off my computer and when I turned it back on to continue working and entire section of about 80 photos was gone. The music attached to these photos remains. Can I retrieve this work?

    I am at Snow Leopard and have only played a bit in IMOVIE - so can't speak for Mavericks - but -
    In general as I work a lot in Photoshop - when you are happy with something save it and continue on - If you have Time Machine Running and you want to try things next that may or may not work - force a time machine backup - that way the version you are happy with will be available for 24 hours (and wish this was a setting one could extend) 
    If you turn off your mac - or end a program without consciously saving something you may lose what you worked on.
    If IMOVIE did not ask if you want to recover what you were doing your update may be gone - but try posting new question - asking about automatic backups in IMOVIE and how they work.

  • What are the best plug ins for iMovie 11 running on Lion?

    What are the best plug ins for Imovie 11 or Imovie HD running  Lion? Especially transitions & effects for still pictures.
    Thank you

    Hi
    For iMovie'08 to 11 - There are no Plug-ins - not supported at all
    iMovie HD (in reality HD5) - doesn't work under Mac OS X.7 - at all
    iMovie HD6 - can take Plug-ins and run under Mac OS X.7 - BUT some of the Plug-ins doesn't work under X.7
    old list on - Plug-ins - Only relevant to  iMovie HD6 (May be they are too old)

  • I have iTunes Match, but some of the music I loaded from CDs and I can see in the iTunes store won't play. It recognizes the album but is playing literally the only 3 songs I don't want to listen to.

    have iTunes Match, but some of the music I loaded from CDs and I can see in the iTunes store won't play. It recognizes the album but is playing literally the only 3 songs I don't want to listen to.
    How do I get to play all of my music that should be stored either on the computer or in the cloud?

    Hi,
    Initially your music should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Once match completes its scan, your music will have been matched or uploaded. I suggest that you add iCloud status column to song view. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, inelligible, duplicate or waiting. What is the status of your tracks that are not playing.
    If space is not an issue, I suggest that you keep the music on the internal hard drive otherwise you can delete the tracks and play from cloud. In both instances, you should maintain a back up of all your music on a separate hard drive.

  • Error message (-51) keeps coming up when I try to send music from iTunes to my iPhone and then the music won't come over.  How can I fix this message?

    Error message (-51) keeps coming up when I try to send music from iTunes to my iPhone and then the music won't come over.  How can I fix this message?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • What are the maximum numbers of parameters that a subvi can be obtained?

    What are the maximum numbers of parameters that a subvi can be obtained?

    I'm not sure I understand exactly what you mean. Do you mean to ask how many parameters you can pass to a subVI? That would be a very large number because a connector pane can have a dozen or so terminals--and if each terminal is a cluster... You could pass a very large number indeed.
    Having said that however, you probibly wouldn't want to. Remember the more parameters you're passing the more tightly coupled your code is--and the less reusable the code will probibly be.

  • The volume control has disappeared from the music app on my iPhone and i can't play any music how do i fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

  • HT201269 Where are the notes from my iphone backup and how can I sync them with my new macbook and ipad. And my galaxy 3g if someone is feeling especially generous with their time and attention. Many thanks.

    - The iTunes backup that iTunes makes included photos in the camera roll. If yo go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices what is the date of the backup? Is it when the photos were on the iPod? You have to restore from that backup.
    - What may have happened is that you backup the iPod after you restored the iPod but before restoring from backup. iTunes only keeps one backup and overwrites the previous backup with the changes.

    unless you transfered them to the computer before restoring it

  • I have a classic that seems to be stuck in restore mode, the screen says "do not disconnect'' and i can't restore using itunes. i have tried resetting it and still no good, what can i do to fix this problem ?

    i have a classic that seems to be stuck in restore mode, the screen says "do not disconnect'' and i can't restore using itunes. i have tried resetting it and still no good, what can i do to fix this problem ?

    Be good to know what the diagnostic results are.
    I've also just run into an issue where I couldn't restore an iPod with a corrupt file system, and the "super fix" in that linked article wasn't working for me. I've run across a potentially useful workaround.
    iPod Classic went on the fritz today just after syncing. Couldn't restore via iTunes, kept getting 1439 errors, Windows wouldn't format as FAT32, claimed the "Volume is too big for FAT32". Finally tracked down EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free) and formatted as FAT32 with 128k clusters. The iPod is filling back up again. Might be worth a shot here...

    If you buy an iLife '11 install DVD (eBay, Amazon) you could upgrade your iPhoto right away. The earlier iPhoto '11 versions are compatible with MacOS X 10.6.8.
    but I can't until I upgrade from OS X 10.6.8.  Trying to figure out how to do that...
    To upgrade to Mt. Lion see here:  You can buy it and download it from the appStore, if your mac is compatible:

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out?

    This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out? I am using a MacBook.

    Press "Command P" and when the Print dialogue box comes up, towards the bottom there is an option allowing you to choose the text size, i.e: small, med, large.
    Hope this helps,
