Can't find events created in iMovie 11?

Hello,
I have a bunch of events stored on external drive created with iMovie 11. When I open FCPX and navigate to the drive it tells me no events exist. Any ideas or help very much appreciated! (I really don't want to import all the footage again!)

FCP can't import iMovie events that aren't in the user's Movies folder. You can import the clips if they're in a suitable format.

How can I find movies created in past versions of iMovie? They are still on you tube but I want the original higher quality versions and I can't find them anymore.

Paul -
I'm sorry you've lost files, but when you set up an account as Guest, there's a message that clearly states "When a guest user logs out, all information and files in the guest account's home folder are deleted". If you want an account where files are retained, you should create an Admin or Standard type.
You will need to use data recovery techniques to see if your file can be recovered. The more that you use your computer, the greater the risk that the file will be overwritten. You can contact a professional data recovery service such as DriveSavers (which will be expensive, but you can judge the value of the file) or try something like Data Rescue. The latter has a demo which you can install to determine if your file can be recovered, and then, on purchase, you can actually recover the file.
Good luck!

Can't find Events in the Leopard upgraded iphotos?

I just installed Leopard but I don't think it installed my iphoto properly. It still says I have version 6 when I click on about iphoto. Is this normal? I can't find Events either which is one of the new features on iphotos. Anyone else had this problem?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Installing Leopard does not upgrade the iLife application becuase they are not part of a system upgrade disk. Therefore you still have the same iLife versions that you had with Tiger. You either have to purchase a iLife disk or a new computer to get iLife 08.
Happy Holidays
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

If TweakUI can’t see Music Folder see this thread:

But you should be able to work around the issue by starting iTunes with the shift key held down and either choosing or creating iTunes Library.itl in My Music\iTunes

ITunes can't find or create the iTunes Folder (in Vista). SOMEBODY HELP ME!

I have installed iTunes in my Windows Vista but i can't run it because it appears an error showing: iTunes can't find or create the iTunes folder. This folder is usually located in My Music Folder.
The problem is that I erased the original folder "my music" from my computer and even if I create another "my music" folder and I put in the iTunes folder, the program doesen't work.
Please help me!
Thanks very much.

The problem is that iTunes uses a registry entry to find the location of the Music folder and it is not correctly set.
Apple offer this help for Windows XP, however it requires a utility called TweakUI and Miscrosoft haven't released a version for Vista. I found this link for an alternative, but I know nothing about it so I don't like to recommend it:
http://www.totalidea.com/content/tweakvi/tweakvi-index.html
As alternative to this you may be able to do the following as a work around:
Hold down the shift key, keep it held down and start iTunes. You should be asked to choose or create a library. Choose create and navigate to where you want your iTunes folder - usually in your Music folder.

IMovie can't find events now moved to a new internal drive

I installed a second 1Tbit drive and moved my photos, movies, music and documents from the primary drive to the new drive. I also created alias's for each of these folders.
Although iTunes didn't care about the alias, and Aperture reset it's file location automatically as well - the media browser had a problem. I have the new version of iLife but had not yet opened iPhoto - but when I did it rebuilt it's library and then showed up. Deleting the alias for the photo folder entirely let Aperture show up - but iMovie is whacked. I can see only one simple short event that I had opened immediately after installing iLife - even though this event is no longer on the main drive, it's over on the second drive and "Show in Finder" clearly showed it in the new location.
But all the other events and video files are not visible. I can see them in Finder, and if I click on them I get to see them play just fine. But attempts to import them return an error
Copy Failed
This file could not be copied:
/Volumes/RR-2nd TB/y User Files/Movies/iMovie Projects.localized/Teah ISR Second Year - Larg.m4v
(File not Found)
But the file is most certainly there and the file opens just fine if I click on it. As the alias for the folder seemed to be an issue for Photos, but once deleted Media Browser could indeed see the Aperture library, I have also deleted the alias file for iMovie - no improvement.
I have deleted and let recreate the preferences file - but this only removed the one file I could see.
Both drives are Mac OS Extended (Jorunaled) - and both report no errors.
Trying this and that, iMovie has created a new folder for iMovie Events on the second drive, and if I move things into this they suddenly appear - but not my projects.
I can certainly move the Movie folder back to the main drive, but the intent was to free up space on that drive, and to increase performance by having the application on one drive and the user data on another.
I can't be the only person to ever move the Movie folder - but I can't find any current and helpful info on the matter. I do see that a few others have recently expereinced some issues with external drives and iMovie - might be a similar issue.

You can move Projects and Events to and external drive, but you must move them from within iMovie. If you move them using the Finder, it will make the projects unusable.
I would recommend that you move all projects and events back to your original drive.
Then open iMovie and verify that all is well.
Now, click View/Events by Disk, and you should see your new drive in the Events List on the left.
To move an event, hold the command key while dragging the icon for the event to the icon for the disk in the iMovie Event List.
To move a project, hold down the command key while dragging the Project icon to the icon for the new drive in the Project List.
Doing it this way will preserve the links between your Projects and your Events.

Can't find a version of iMovie that will open

I created an iMovie, didn't pay any attention to the iMovie version, tried upgrading to iMovie 6 but my computer's processor wasn't fast enough for iLife 6. So I went back and tried to open the old file in iMovie 3, but now it says my monitor doesn't have enough resolution, even though it's that same monitor. I thought maybe I had made the movie in 2, but it requires Classic, which I haven't ever had.
Any ideas on how to find out which version of iMovie my files are in? Also any ideas of how to make iLife 6 work on my system?

Hi over achiever - to find the version of imovie, drag the project icon over TextEdit.

Where can i find the created group in portalcontent of content admin?

Hi all,
I have created a group with name Group1. I assigned some users to the group one by one. Is there any method to add 5 users at a time?
How can i store the created groups in the folder & where can i find the Group1in the portalcontent?
thanks & regards,
vila

You can assign multiple users to a group by using the User Data Import option. Navigate to User Adminstration --> Import.
Create a file with the following entries and upload it for group assignments
[Group]
gid=YourGroupName
gdesc=...
user=User1;User2;User3...
To know the users assigned to a group,
1. Navigate to User Administration --> Identity Management.
2. Put your group name and search.
Regards,

Can't find my media shared imovie in idvd

I have 3 short movies (3-5 minutes each) that I shared to my media browser in iMovie. But I can't find them when I go to iDVD. They're not listed at all. My other projects are all there but not the 3 that I need. Where are they? Any suggestions on how I can get these to iDVD so that I can burn a dvd of all of them? Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hi
a. Free space on Start-Up hard disk. How much ? I secure a minimum of 25Gb on my Mac.
b. In iMovie - I "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (nor less or HD)
c. In iDVD under Media I find Movie and here I can find my movie projects
If This still is a problem I would
• Trash Preference files for iMovie and iDVD - OR MUCH Better - Start a new User Account and log into this to see if everything works OK now - If this helps - The culprit most certainly is one or more of the Pref files.

Import can't find project created in SJSE8

I created a project called myutils which has a few classes in it that I use in many places. SJSE8 created the myutils.jar file very nicely and quickly.
I created another project to use the myutils.jar file and no matter what I do, SJSE8 can't find it. I have:
1. Updated the CLASSPATH environment variable with the directory that has the myutils.jar.
2. Gone into the project properties and updated the libraries list by adding the myutils.jar file and directory folder.
3. Gone into the Tools/Options and changed the Ant settings for the IDE-Supplied Classpath and the Additional Classpath to include the myutils.jar directory.
4. I looked at the Tools/Options/IDE Configuration/System/Modules/Debugging/JPDA Debugger UI/Effective Classpath and found that it doesn't even consider the CLASSPATH environment variable at all.
Being new to SJSE I'm getting confused quite a bit. I'm not new to java programming, but I can't seem to find my way around what seems to be a very good IDE.
There has to be a good reason for my second project program not to be able to see the first jar file in order to import it.
Anyone know why?
-E.J.

Hi!
It's strange ... Seems jar file myutils.jar not contain classes in package myutils.
If you send me this jar file then I can give you more detailed answer.
First of all notice that classes have correct package declaration:
package myutils.<smth else>;

Can't sync events created on the iPhone back to Outlook or iCal

after upgraded my two iPhones to 1.1.4 I cannot sync events created in the iPhone back into Outlook on my Vista machine or iCal on my Macbook (for the second iPhone). I searched the forum but found no answer other than a RESTORE... I already needed a RESTORE in one of the iPhones as music data got corrupted after upgrade (it created a huge OTHER file.
1.1.4 fixed bugs and added quite a few!
any advice out there other than RESTORE? As always the helpful agent from apple support suggests restoring the iPhone and denies anybody else having issues.

The first question I wold have to trouble shoot your problems is: Do you have an active open account on Outlook? Do you have more then one account active on outlook? When you connect your iPhone to iTunes and go to the second Tab...What boxes do you have selected? Are you set up to Auto or Manual Sync?
Currently I have one active account in Outlook that is displaying my MSN account that was IMAP'd through izymail.com. All of my sync modes are set to manual so that I can control what and when my sync occurs. All of my boxes are checked in the second tab to sync to the outlook account that I have established. If this does not help then please answer the questions above so that I or someone else can assist you further.
Good Luck

Can't find the created queries in SQVI after SAP GUI Upgrade

Hi all,
I have a problem when I update my SAP GUI (7.10 -> 7.20)
After the upgrade, I can't find anymore the queries in SQVI. The liste is totally emptied...
Could you help me to find them? Or plz, just tell me I deleted them T_T
Thanks in advence.

Hello Alexander,
Thank you for your reply, but the situation didn't change... it's really strange...
We used the same PC to logon with 720, I'm sure that the parameters of SAP GUI are good, everything works correctly except SQVI. No problem with LSMW or SCAT... The most important point, this problem appears on all PC with 720 upgrade! So, it's not a local problem...but we didn't touch anything on server...maybe it was just a coincidence, somebody did something on the server in the same time of SAP GUI Upgrade...
For now, we copied the lost queries from QUALITY (it's not the last version T_T but it's better than nothing!) And we still don't know where is the source of problem.
Anyway, thank you for your help.
Best regards,
Alu

Where can I find clips from crashed iMovie?

So, iMOVIE crashed unexpectedly while i was actually recording a video with the built in camera. I restarted the program and the clips werent there. I went to the imovie events folder and although there was a folder for the appropreate date and time for the clip, there was no actual clip. But the space on my hard drive is still missing as if there is a clip, so I know the data is there somewhere, how do i find it?

Dila,
The ID created points to the internal PK used for that report/region. You can view the source of the HTML to see what that ID is.
However, I would not recommend using this ID for anything, as it will change when you move your application to another instance. Instead, consider using the Static ID attribute of any region or report. There, you can set a more permanent ID for that region, and refer to that programmatically.
Thanks,
