Can't Add 2 Or More Titles... Why?

I have iMovie '08. I added a title to overlay on a portion of my movie. When adding it the time for it was 1:17:03 or some similar number. There is no way to right click and change its length. To make it last only ten seconds I drag each end (while highlighted with the yellow box) to the points where I want it to appear.
I want to do the same thing in another portion of the movie and the title will not become part of the movie in the spot I want it to be. It is not over the previous title. There is no overlap. The program will allow me to add it much farther down into the movie near the end. I don't know why there is a cutoff section that won't allow the title to be used.
I tried turning off iMovie and opening the project again with no results. Whatever needs to be changed to make it work isn't being changed when the program is closed and reopened.
What is the solution? I see two other posts asking essentially the same thing with no answer from a forum member or Apple.
This is a work project and needs to be completed as soon as possible. It is a short promotion for a web site. It is not a professional film. I'm not a movie editor or film maker. I just expect the program I have on my computer to work. If Apple makes iMovie to help non-film makers make pretty videos then they should ensure their program works.
Somebody give us some love and help us all get the answer to this simple question.
Thank you.

Thank you AppleMan1958. What you have suggested is a good work-around. It did indeed work. I don't really consider this problem solved because it didn't explain why the iMovie program won't let us add more than a couple of titles, in my case an overlay.
I can add all the beginning and ending titles that I want as long as they stand alone. The ones that have text over the movie were the problem for me.
To anybody else wanting to use this work-around; be sure to do all of your volume, color, and other editing for the things that must be changed to the entire length of your project before you begin chopping up your movie with edits for adding titles. Otherwise you will have a rough time trying to match everything in each of the individual clips.
Good luck everybody.
I'll try to post a link to the finished product. I hope Apple moderators don't kill the thread just because it shows a video that isn't about Apple computers.

  • HT4968 Can I add subscriptions to more than one calendar?  I would like my google cal to be added to my main ical cal.      be to more than one calendar

    CAn I add more than one subscription to my main calendar in ical?  I have a google cal I use for work, plus a another schedule i subscribe to.  I would like both of those to fill my main ical cal.

    I'm not sure how you would merge them without dragging and dropping the events from your separate calendars into the one you want to hold the merged events.
    iCloud won't sync calendars from external account such as Google.  The easiest thing to do would be to add them to your iOS devices as explained here: https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/151674?hl=en&rd=1.  They will then appear alongside your iCloud calendar on your iOS devices just as they do on your Mac.

  • Why cant I add songs in my itunes library.  I can still add movies but not music, Why cant I add songs in my itunes library.  I can still add movies but not music

    Recently, I can no longer add songs in my itunes.  I can delete it or move the songs into playlist but adding songs doesn't work anymore.  I can still add photos and movies but not music.  Please help me solve this issue.

    I have a master iTunes file that contains all the music that I or my children have bought and then my own collection within the file. That song, 'Mercy, Mercy Me/I Want You' is gone from both lists
    Nabitnak,  Not sure what kind of master file you are keeping, but the song file is probably in your backup.
    Why is that song not available on iTunes? I can get it on Amazon.
    The iTunes Store, like any retailer, does not have 100% of all existing items.  But anyway, if you can buy it on one store, it hardly matters why another store does not have it.
    The coincidence of my missing song and iTune's missing the same song is beyond suspicious.
    Maybe, although if you have a backup it should be there.
    To address the other part of your question, "I can find it on You Tube, why not iTunes?":  Youtube has content that is uploaded by users.  Music retailers such as iTunes have content that they are licensed to sell as downloads.  The two things have nothing to do with each other.

  • I have Adobe Reader X on Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Printer for Adobe PDF show up in my Hardware/printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers?

    I have Adobe Reader X in Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Adobe PDF show up as a printer in my Hardware/Printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers? And how?

    Adobe Reader - FREE - reads PDF files, prints them, fills forms.
    Adobe Acrobat - $$ - as Reader, and makes PDFs and edits them, sorta, and does a bunch more.
    So if you had Acrobat try and find the license to avoid having to pay again...

    This "error note" must have something to do about it?

    elppaelo,
    You may try the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Can not add more contacts on address book

    Hello
    i have a blackberry curve 8520.
    at the momment i have 288 contacts but i can not add more. I go to menu, address book, new contact, the window give me the options, i add the information (name, phone, email, etc) and when i want to save the contact it do not save
    i tried to reboot removing the battery for a minute and restart but still with the same problem.
    Also i figured out that when y sync my bb with the desktop manager, the address book is not sync it says (Adress book not installed) that is why i can not swipe the contacts to reinstall the info because i have no back up of the address book
    Please i need some help with this issues
    thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    While there is no hard limit on how many contacts you can have in your device, there is a soft limit in that you can only have as many as your device memory can handle. Check your available memory to see if you have any remaining space. If not, then consider cleaning out/uninstalling some things you do not need in order to increase available memory for more contacts.
    Disclaimer: I'm just a regular user like the rest of you. I have spent a lot of time learning the limitations of the Blackberries to know how to fix most problems. If I have suggested a fix, please give a kudo and mark as a solution!

  • Why does the software update say that drivers for my printers are not available? I have the drivers installed from the CD but can't add the printer because it wants to go through software update.

    I have the latest operating system, but can't get my printers added. Why does the software update say that drivers for my printers are not available? I have the drivers installed from the CD but can't add the printer because it wants to go through software update.

    It's pretty difficult to offer suggestions when you say nothing about your Mac, the version of Mac OS it's running, or the models of printers you have. This forum, however, is intended for questions about old, pre-G3 hardware, so unless you are asking about an very old Mac, this is not the forum where you'll be most likely to get help with your problem. I'd suggest you ask this question in the forum for your model of Mac or version of Mac OS X it's running. You'll be more likely to get assistance there, assuming you provide sufficient detail for anyone to make a diagnosis of the problem.
    Regards.

  • I can't add titles

    Hi!
    I'm making a movie with a lot of titles and music and all go well and, I don't know what happened, but I can't add titles no more and I can't adjust the time of the titles I put before. It works no more only for this movie and the other movie I made are ok. Did anybody have an idea about what can do that?

    I'm making a movie with a lot of titles and music and all go well and, I don't know what happened, but I can't add titles no more and I can't adjust the time of the titles I put before.
    As I understand it, a number of people have reported this problem. Believe the general work around is to segment your clip first and then add the titles to the individual segments to which they refer. Since no content is actually lost and the "split" content remains "abuted," the segmented project plays the same as if it were still unsegmented.

  • Can I add more ram than suggested

    I need to get some more ram for my imac that apple say I can expand to 16gb. I currently have the standed 4gb.
    In the following article from pcworld i noticed the following (especially the bold)
    All iMacs come standard with 4GB of memory, installed as a pair of 2GB modules. When you order an iMac through the Apple Online Store, you have the option to upgrade the memory to 8GB (a pair of 4GB modules) on all iMac models for $200, or to 16GB (four 4GB modules) on the 27-inch models for $600. The iMac has four memory slots located at the bottom of the iMac that are user-accessible. Since two slots are empty when you buy an standard-configuration iMac, you can easily add more memory. The 21.5 inch iMac has support for up to 16GB of memory; third party companies are offering 32GB memory upgrades for the new 27-inch iMac.
    Does this mean that I can technically go up to 32gb?  Is there a down side to adding more the an 16gb suggested.

    Although you can install up to 16 GBs of RAM in both 21 and 27" models, I can not confirm that you can install 32 GBs in the 27" model. You might check OWC to see what they say.
