Audio Won't Work PLEASE HELP!!!

I imported a video into iMovie and when I play it the sound wont work. The audio boxes on the clip bar are checked and everything but there is no sound. Sound works in iTunes and other applications but not iMovie. Is it because the video tape I recorded with is an HD video tape? What do I do? Please help ASAP. Thank you!

Hi mgoldenberg - welcome to Apple discussions!
Frankly, I do not know why. I cannot imagine it is because of the tape. Does the sound play OK on the tape within the camera? The volume slider below the imovie screen is at the far right? Does an imported song play OK within iMovie? You have not inadvertently muted the video clips by dragging the volume down - can be done in two ways:
1. by clicking on the small speaker icon at the bottom of the iMovie window and dragging down the vertical slider.
2. Going View>Show Clip Volume Levels, and dragging down the thin line that appears through the clips.
Are you using an external drive to store your projects - if so it must be formatted OS Mac Extended and not for Windows.
Maybe you should try repairing permissions:
Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility - chose the startup disk, and click 'repair permissions'.
If that has no effect, then try this:
Find and delete this file after closing iMovie:
Users (you)>Library>Preferences>com.apple.imovie.plist
Let us know how you have got on.

  • I have a 6gb micro and it won't work, please help

    first off, the thing worked fine for the first day! i used microsoft media player to sync some songs to it without installing the software. well, the battery died, remembering it only has a 2 hour battery life! thing is, it wouldn't charge when it was hooked up the computer, it wouldn't even recognize it, so i called customer service and after an hour of being on hold, the lady tells me to install the software and it would work fine. when i did that, guess what, it didn't! it did the same thing, it wouldn't recognize the player and the player would not charge. i would think it was the usb cord, but the battery gets really hot, but the thing just won't turn on and the computer won't recognize it! please help me!

    It's strange. How did you even manage syncing without installing the software on your computer - i mean, the computer has to recognise it before it can start processes.
    Nevertheless, here is a thread which might prove to be useful in making your player recognized: http://forums.creative.com/creativel...message.id=723

  • Automatic Update Won't Work, Please Help!

    Please help. I have the new 5G iPod and it has kinda been working fine for me. Everytime I go to plug it into my computer, the automatic udate won't start. The little iPod icon in the corner won't show up and when I go to pref. and click on iPod it says there is no iPod connected. I tried to restart the computer and iPod and plug it into a different USB port but still nothing works. I know I have new songs on there that I want to update on but the "Do not disconect" screen won't even come up. Any help would be great, thanks! =)

    Try this:
    Create a new user and make sure it is an Administrator account. Download and install iTunes.
    If it installs properly, log out and then back in as you.
    Uninstall iTunes using the method in this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Then install from the link in my previous post:

    Have you been having problems with your laptop before this?
    You can always try a system restore too if the above steps don't work.
    Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore > Next > pick a restore point (you will get later dates if you check the "Show more restore points" box) I would go back at least a couple days > Next > Finish. It may take a while then it will reboot. On reboot it will finish the restore so it may take longer than normal to boot. This will not change any of personal files, only system and program files.

I have tried resetting it and turning it on and off but nothing seems to be working. I'm travelling overseas next week and I really need my iPad PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Ipod Won't Work Please Help

    My ipod wouldn't work at all so i sent it in and they sent me a new one. I thought yeah now itll work but boy was i wrong. It wont get formatted for Windows.

  • Blackberry screen won't work, please help!!!

    I turned my blackberry on yesterday, the usual blackberry loading bar came on then when it came up with my home screen it didn't do the usual "verifying software" thing and instead it just came up straight way with a notification saying "application terminated: share_impl_snake had been denied the cross application communication" I know this notification is for a game I downloaded ages ago but revoked it from accessing my device. Anyway when I went to press okay it wouldnt do anything. The buttons are all working fine though because they work when I press them to stop the screen from going dim. But thats all they will do. I have tried EVERYTHING, please help, I can't use my blackberry at all!

  • ITunes won't work, please help

    Hello Apple Discussions. I've been having trouble with my iTunes account. Every time I try to open the program it tells me that an error has occurred and has to close. I've been reading through what other people have tried to get around this problem, and this is what I've tried so far. I tried checking the disk, nothing. I tried opening the Quick Time player and I'm getting the same message that a problem has occurred and has to close. What do I do? Please help. Thank you for your time.

    Thanks, scotty!
    ModName:ntdll.dll
    The Quick Time player is a BEX error.
    I'm afraid that malware is the worry with that ntdll.dll/BEX combination, scotty. (Often people who get it also can't get their Adobe Reader to launch either, although that symptom isn't universal.)
    I'm not sure which particular beast (or beasts) is the culprit at this stage, but the free version of Malwarebytes has been doing a good job of fixing it for a lot of people.
    Download and install Malwarebytes from the following page. Update the Malwarebytes definitions prior to running a scan with Malwarebytes:
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/
    If the Malwarebytes scans pick up infections could you let us know what they are called, please?
    If you remove the infections, can you get your iTunes and QuickTime launching again?

  • Front audio port not working please help..

    Hey guys,
    My HP Pavilion DV2275ea front audio jack does not work, I have tried many different headsets as the mic jack works just fine. I have tried reinstalling audio drivers (Conexant High-Definition Audio Chip) and still nothing. I have look at the support advice posted to no avail. Is there anything else i could try?
    A friend said it could be turned off in the bios but i am not able to get in as i don't know the password for the phoenix bios, could this be true?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Well from looking at a jpeg of your board the front usb headers are laid out just like my board. Each set of headers support 2 usb ports each. That gives you the 4 in the rear and 4 for the front.
    Now as to the pinouts, 1+3+5+7+9 is 1 set and 2+4+6+8+10  is the 2nd set, with pins 1 and 2 being the 5V power pins. Pins 7 and 8 are your grounds.  3 and 4 are the usbo- and usb1-. Pins 5 and 6 are usbo+ and usb1+. Pin 9 is the "key" pin and may actually be missing by intention. Key 10 is sometimes called the usboc pin and normally isn't used. On some boards you don't want anything connected to pin 10, even if you have to snip the wire going to it and terminate the end of the wire with insulating tape.
    Your motherboard manual should show you the pin layout.  

  • My itunes won't work please help..

    it seems a lot of people are having the same problem.. I tried to follow the other suggestions but I can't seem to understand it and I get confused..
    so I downloaded an update for ipod and just recently I tried to run it and it crashes. I get the "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close..."etc msg. i uninstalled it and reinstalled it, etc like many times but same message. my quicktime crashes too so I tried to uninstall it but it wouldnt so i just deleted the whole folder and tried to reinstall it but it still wouldn't.
    i'm totally frustrated i wish i'd never clicked that update button.. if it ever works again I'll just let it be from now on..
    if someone can please guide me through.. I'm not good with computers so it's hard for me to understand all that.. i would appreciate it thanks
    dont know   Windows XP   dont know

    Hello. I pretty much gave up all hope and wasnt going to try to fix it anymore, and I was glad I had most of my good songs on my ipod already..
    but i randomly came to the forums and looked at one person's post, where someone suggested that they install the standalone quicktime.. I knew my problem had something to do with quicktime so, since it wouldn't uninstall, I manually deleted all the quicktime folders and files, execpt one file which refused to delete so I just moved it, then I installed that standalone quicktime installer, and it was successful, and followed up with Itunes installation, and it was smooth sailing from there.. so far.. well I hope that it will stay working.
    sorry to say but I won't be touching any more updates.. dont wanna go through this again
    thank you
