Can't adjust end of background music..only the start adjusts

Struggling to edit my background music on my video in iMovie 11.
I can select the position of the start but not the end...any ideas?
Thanks
Neil

Hey, thank alot, it worked like a charm, BUT another problem just popped up, I used trapcode shine as an effect on the paint splatter layer, since i used your "set matte" the splatter doesn't get affected by the trapcode effect.

  • I added background music to the video clip, but I only hear noise, no video clip audio or the background music audio

    I added background music to the video clip in iMovie, the playback runs ok on the right corner preview screen, if I share it to movie clip or itunes or theather, I only hear noise, no video clip audio or the music audio
    If I don't put additional audio to the clip. audio effect or music background, the video plays normally
    I detached the audio from the video clip and deleted it, that way it was possible to listen to the music background and see the actual video clip, but no audio from the video clip.
    How can I have both?

    Hi
    My first thought is -
    Where are the original Audio file ?
    If it was on an Audio-CD then the CD is Ejected and one tries to play the movie - it can not find it = Silence.
    You are using an Non-Destructive Video editor - meaning that You have raw material - Video, Audio and photos but no Movie in Project - only a text document directing How You want it to be played. So if Audio is not where it was when this document were created - iMovie can not find it and e.g. audio goes silent.

  • HT204204 My phone crashed after updating it to IOS 8. I can't use it cause its stucked on the start up menu, the apple logo with black background.

    Hi to all,
    I hope someone can help me. My phone crashed after updating it to IOS 8.3. I can't use it cause its stucked on the start up menu, the apple logo with black background. Even when I restart my phone, it is still stuck on the start up menu, the black background with apple logo in the middle.

    Slone,
    I finally decided to turn this annoyance into an opportunity.  After a lot of experimenting I found that my iPad was just fine under 7.1 if I simply restored it as new.  I have a lot of time on my hands and I had 1424 apps on my iPad!  This is why every attempt to restore took so long.
    I decided to restore as new, spend a day restoring the apps I really used.  Doing so gave me a quick iPad with only bout a quarter of the storage used.
    Granted it was a pain in the arse, but I wrote it off as in the old days when you had to do this with windows 95 just to keep a stable system.
    I DO have some data in a few files of the now unused backup but a quick google search finds a couple Mac programs out there that will allow you go extract audio recordings, app data files etc. from the backup.  I'll do that someday if I even miss the files I've probably forgotten that are there.
    Anyway, there was nothing wrong with my hardware.  I think there were just some troublesome setup items that 7.1 didn't like.  Once set up as new, the ipad was fine.
    Good luck!

  • I have just set up Itunes match on my new iMac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live. Am I missing something?

    Hi
    I have just set up itunes match on my new imac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live - I can't access albums or songs. Am I missing something?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I do not understand your problem. iTunes Match does not change the way iTunes looks. When match process is complete, the match screen tells you how much music you have in the cloud.
    Across the top of screen you have options to select songs, albums, artist, composers etc.
    Suggest that from main menu, select view>show sidebar.

  • I'm retiring my old computer (windows xp) to a new computer (windows 7). How can i easily move my itunes music from the old computer to the new computer? i have my playlists organized in my old computer, i would like it to stay that way in my new computer

    i'm retiring my old computer (with windows xp) and bought a new computer (with windows 7). How can i easily move my itunes music from the old computer to the new computer? i have my playlists organized in my old computer, i would like it to stay that way in my new computer. I also have my ipods, iphone sync'd in the old computer so i want to make sure that things won't get messed up (my apps, playlists, etc) when i move over everything to the new computer and sync all my devices with the new computer.
    Thanks in advance for the tips.

    Make sure the XP box is upgraded to the latest version of itunes. Also make sure it's using the itunes media folder layout as explained here, because that's what the W7 is going to be using.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3847
    Install itunes on the new W7 PC.
    Get these folders from the XP machine
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    And put them here on the W7 machine
    C:\users\username\My Music\iTunes
    C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Can I delete a genre of music via the iPhone 5S, Can I delete a genre of music via the iPhone 5S

    My wife and I share an iTunes account via an iMac, but we have different tastes in music.
    Can I remove unwanted Genres of music via the iPhone?
    Is it something that has to be done via the iTunes program and if so how?

    Hello RingosDad
    You can do both. One-way is to set up syncing on your computer to either sync the genres or just the specific music within a playlist. Also if you are happy with the music on your iPhone, besides that one genre, you can navigate to that genre and then do a swipe from right to left to bring up a delete option for that song.

    Hi,
    Just like <Dinae> said above, this behavior occurs because Outlook does not allow you to define a calendar work day that spans midnight.

  • One song on my iPhone only plays the background music on the build-in iPhone speakers. The song has been on my phone for a while and it used to play just fine. With the headphones on it plays normally.

    Please help! (I'm actually doing this for a friend but still)
    All you need to know:
    - iPhone 4 16GB
    - iOS 6.0.3 (I think, not the latest iOS but the one before that)
    - Song which started to act strange: niggas in Paris
    - All songs work fine on headphones (including above)
    - The song has been on the iPhone for a couple of months and used to play without any trouble
    - When you play it on the iPhone's speakers you either only hear the background music, no sound at all (for a few seconds) or a weird old FM-radio noise
    - Plays fine on iTunes
    All help is appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I have this issue too.  Same specs, newest OS.  Happening on "O.N.E." by Yeasayer, but doesn't play the vocals through the speaker or headphone jack, unlike your issue.  I just get all but the vocal track no matter what.  Plays fine in iTunes.  If you never get that distortion through the speaker any other time, maybe you can delete the song. 
    In my case, I can't delete the song through the phone since I use iTunes Match, but if you actually sync the songs/download them, that would be my first suggestion (swipe across, hit "delete.").  Maybe that would work?  Then resyncing or redownloading. 
    If not, maybe resetting or restoring may be the fix. 

  • How to change tempo without affecting the music (only the grid)

    This is a very basic problem. I have been laying songs (audio files) onto logic and recording vocals over them, and now that I am finished with the recording, i realize that in order to copy and paste the choruses EXACTLY throughout the songs, which can be quite arduous the way I have been trying to do it, one needs to have matched the proper tempo with the the music being used.
    I neglected to do this at the start of these projects, and it has come back to bite me because when I try to change the tempo now, it completely throws my vocals out of whack because my voice is off beat. This is where the problem lies. I know had I addressed this at the beginning, I would be smooth sailing.
    I also tried setting the tempo at the proper rate on a new logic project, but when I drag everything over from the original project, the same problem occurs.
    In reality, I need the grid to match up so I have the proper means to line up my vocals exactly so the choruses are consistent throughout the song (obviously I can do it manually in a way regular listeners might not notice, but Im dissatisfied with that, I want it to be perfect)
    Again, I know that if I had matched the tempo properly with the audio file (the music) at the beginning, there would be no problems, and I'd be able to record over it and then use the bars to align my vocals perfectly.
    If some one would be so kind as to get back to me on this, it would be highly appreciated

    You're close!
    1• Open the automation event list on a track that contains automation. You will now see what looks like a normal event list but it's displaying only the automation data on that track
    2• Click the hierarchy arrow to take you "up a level" so that the automation event list (AEL) now shows you the names of all of the automation regions within the (hidden) automation arrange page. What you'll see is a list of items all starting at bar 1 1 1 1 called "Automation". (If the position of the items is not 1 1 1 1, you have a problem. See below).
    3• Select All (CMD-A) and then use whatever method you prefer to SMPTE-lock them (menu item or key command)
    = OR =
    Do Step #1. Then hit CMD-1 to open a new Arrange window. When you do this right after opening an AEL you will see the automation arrange page. Move the AEL out of the way or simply close it. Then, similar to Step #3, select all of the automation regions in the automation arrange page (CMD-A) and SMPTE-lock them.
    Note: if your automation events are not all starting at 1 1 1 1 then it's an indication that your song's start marker was moved to before bar 1 and you're on your way to having a corrupted song.
    Final caveat: don't attempt to write new automation while the old automation data is SMPTE-locked. It'll create a nice lil' mess. So after you're done changing the tempo (or whatever your reason for SMPTE-locking regions and automation), the first thing you should do is unlock them both before proceeding with any additional recordings. It's very easy to forget that the automation data is locked because you can't see that it's in a locked state unless you're looking at the AEL or the automation arrange page.

  • Can "cycle" be set to stop at the end, and/or go to the start and stop there?

    Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place for this feature. I'm used to a daw that provides a method to identify a region (similar to Cycle Mode), but gives the options to do one of several things, rather than only loop that passage endlessly. Sometimes I want playback to stop at the end of the passage...and when I hit return, it will go to the beginning of the passage and stop there. Or..sometimes I want the playhead to go to the beginning of the passage and stop there, instead of continuously loop. I rarely want an endless loop of the section.
    Sometimes I don't want a region at all, I simply want to set a memory location and have the playhead go there any time I hit return, instead of go to the beginning of the sequence, or to the beginning of a cycle to start looping.
    thanks

    Yeah...I've worked out an alternative, but it would be very nice if there was a feature like what I'm talking about. Basically, a start and end memory location that is multi configurable to whatever you want. It can loop, or just go back to the start location and stop. And every press of rewind takes you to the start.
    I've come up with the key command, go to left locator or right locator, and don't enable cycle mode.

  • I have my iPhone connected but can't seem to sync my music to the MacBook music library, what should I do?

    How do I sync my music to my Mac? When I disconnect my iPhone, my music library is gone. I've already authorized the computer so I'm not sure what to do next.

    Make sure you have the latest iTunes version.  Is all the music on the phone or mac?  If former there are programs like I iexplorer you can use to add to library.  iTunes syncs only from computer to device.

  • 23" Cinema Display: Can't disable MacBook display to use only the cinema?

    Hi,
    I just bought a 23" cinema display with the intention of using it exclusively while I use a wireless keyboard and just keep my MacBook closed. I notice that when I set the display preferences to "mirror," the quality of the cinema display reduces greatly, since it's only able to be set at the maximum display resolution allowed for the MacBook when mirroring. This seems to defeat the purpose of having the cinema display. So, I guess I have several questions:
    1. Can I close the MacBook without it going to sleep?
    2. Can I make the cinema display the primary display (with application menus, etc.)?
    3. Can I disable the MaBook display and use only the cinema display?
    Thanks,
    Stew

    1. Can I close the MacBook without it going to sleep?
    No, but if the power adapter is connected, you can wake it with the external keyboard or mouse (make sure wake-up is enabled in the Bluetooth system preference), and it will continue to run with the lid closed.
    2. Can I make the cinema display the primary display (with application menus, etc.)?
    Yes. In the "Arrangement" pane of "Displays" system preference, turn off mirroring and drag the picture of the menu bar to the picture f the external display.
    3. Can I disable the MaBook display and use only the cinema display?
    Yes. Close the lid.
