Cannot share movies in 10.0.1

Cannot share movies in 10.0.1.  Neither the Menu flyout nor icon function.  Any work around? Installed on 22 NOV.  Running Mavericks on mid 2009 MacBook Pro with 8gb of ram.

When I click the "Share" menu & pick "File" & pick the size of the file, it gets saved to the "Theater" but not my Desktop.  How do I save it to my Desktop?  Please HELP!!!!!!!  I think the old iMovie was much more user friendly.

  • I cannot 'share' movies in iMovie any more

    Having just upgraded to the new iMove, I can no longer share anything. The share buttons repond to the click as a mousedown kind of thing but they dont actuallt do anything!! Frustrating!!

    I don't know if this will help, but I'm excited about a recent test I did and am sharing it on several sites --
    If your movie is less than about 13 minutes, and you want super quality, I found a way to create a .mov file that fits on a DVD and you can burn it yourself, and anyone can play it.  (I did not use iDVD.)  If you're willing to live with a slightly degraded version, you can put a 106-minute video on a DVD, and it'll look just fine to a group sitting in a room.  Obviously if you want to upload it to a file-sharing site, that's easily doable, as well.
    Having slogged my way through iMovie’s “Help,” online Apple Help and numerous blogs like this one with solutions that were frustratingly varied, hard to follow and even outright contradictory, I gave up and did my own methodical tests to see which combination of options and settings yielded the best result for creating a file on my desktop that can be shared. I have no idea what the various and sundry options and settings are doing, but the results (differences) are apparent, and that's all I care about.
    Here’s what I worked with:  I have a four-minute movie created in iMovie ’11, with nice titles and credits that fade in and out, and one-second cross dissolves in the film.  The movie is 3x4 aspect ratio, not letterbox.  Looks smooth and clean as can be in iMovie, full screen.  (If it matters, I am working on a Mac OS 10.6.8; Processor 2 x 2.66 Ghz 6-core Intel Xeon; Memory 8 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3.)
    Tried exporting through Quicktime and not exporting through Quicktime. Most settings resulted in titles that were either fuzzy or were not clean and smooth during the fades, and often videos that were choppy and would freeze every second or so. Some had clean imagery and would play fine but got very pixelated during transitions (dissolves).  Some that were much larger (higher megabyte numbers) and took longer to  generate the file were actually of lower quality.  Go figure.
    Of all the tests I did, the best results came from doing the following. Here are two options:
    A)  For a small, convenient file that came to only 176 MB for my 4-minute movie, if you’re willing to live with some very slight image degradation and titles that show some slight compression during fades -- but looks perfect from across a room:
    1)  Share > Export using Quicktime > “Export: Movie to Quicktime” / “Use: Most Recent Settings”
    2)  Click “Options”
    3)  Click “Settings”
    4)  Compression: MPEG-4 Video
    5)  Frame Rate: Current
    6)  Key Frames: Every 24 frames
    7)  Frame Reordering -- unchecked
    8)  Compressor Quality: Best
    9)  Data Rate: “Restrict to 6400 kbits/sec”
    10)  Click “OK” and return to “Movie Settings”
    11)  Ignore “Filter” unless you want to alter the look of your video.
    12)  Adjust “Size” accordingly to your wishes. I clicked it, then selected “1920 x 1080 HD” and checked “Preserve aspect ratio using: Fit within dimensions.” This results in an image 1440 x 1080 (to fit within 1920 x 1080).  Remember that if you don’t preserve your original aspect ratio you’ll get a larger/wider movie, but the top and bottom of your image will be cut off.
    13)  If your video is silent, make sure “Sound” is unchecked. I read that this speeds up the file-creating process.
    14)  Hit “OK”
    15)  Be sure to check where you want your file to appear. I chose “Desktop.”
    16)  Hit “Save”
    That’s it!  In my case, after about six minutes, I had a “.mov” file on my desktop that anyone can easily play (people may have to have Quicktime, though, as I understand it, but I believe that’s a free download; you do NOT need Quicktime Pro which costs $).  I uploaded the file to a file-sharing site (Hightail) for others to download, and, testing it, it took me only a few moments to download (I have a FiOS fiber-optic connection, so if you don’t, it will likely take a little longer).  The downloaded file played perfectly and suffered no degradation whatever from the one I generated to my desktop from iMovie.
    B)  For a super high-res version, if you’re willing to live with the size, the ONLY difference is No. 9: Change your Data Rate to “Automatic.”  But as mentioned in the beginning, a standard DVD-R will only hold about 13 minutes of footage at this quality.  If you're only concerned about sending a movie to someone else or a group, upload to a file-sharing site, no problem.
    Oddly, this super-quality version took about the same six minutes to generate the desktop .mov file, but the resulting 1.44 GB file is far, far superior.  You’ll be thrilled with the result!  
    The only downside –– to all of the file tests I did –– is that there is a slight loss of color saturation and contrast from the original iMovie imagery I worked with, particularly with the reds and oranges which become a bit muted.  The blacks/darks came up a bit, yielding slightly less contrast.  But these drawbacks are minor, to me.
    If someone knows of a way to preserve the exact original color saturation and contrast, I’m all ears.

  • I cannot share movies from  ny computer to my ipad.

    When I try to use home sharing to watch movies that I have on my computer on my Ipad, it will not connect. The little clock move about half way around the face and then stops. All of the music on my computer is accessible on my Ipad, but not my movies.

  • Cannot share movies again the the new version

    I had trouble shating movies when I updated to maveric. I updated to the latest version 10.0.1 and it worked until now and sharing is again unavailable. Also the programme is very slow and clunkey, far worse than the old pre Maveric version. Is this issue being addressed?

    jhmdesign,
    When you open iCal, do any calendars show in the calendar's column at all?
    If iCal is reset completely back to the first time you opened it, Home and Work should show. If there is not calendar's showing at all, that is a different issue.
    For a first step, try reseting Sync History via iSync.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • I am using iMovie 10 with Maverick but cannot share to burn to DVD...

    I have spent hours creating a montage but find I cannot share to iDVD to burn to DVD. Does anyone have a suggestion?

    How To Use Share With Maverick
    In iMovie select the movie you wish to share from the library on the left.
    Select “Share”
    Select “File” (the name of the selected movie will appear)
    Save to Desktop (this may take a while but you can check by double-clicking on that desktop icon which starts the movie playing in Quicktime. You can play the movie very quickly (say at 32 speed) to be sure it’s all there.
    Leave iMovie open.
    Insert a DVD
    Open iDVD
    Select the 3 small boxes icon next to the blue arrows in a circle.
    When it opens, drag the movie icon from the desktop into the first box on the left (Not the “Cinema Chapters” box…and the movie title appears.
    Insert a DVD disk and select the “Burn” icon-you will get a message that all’s not okay (There were warnings during the project validation. It is recommended that you fix these problems before burning the project) but ignore it and select “continue to burn”.
    The movie burned just fine and I tested the DVD on our DVD player. However  when I tried inserting titles down below in iMovie and Sharing to a File, when I went to test it by double-clicking on the desktop icon a got a message that it could not read the format (although in MP-4 just like the movie without titles. Tried this with Quicktime 7 and FlipMac-no luck. So when I dragged that icon into the first box on IDVD it also there could not recognize the format-I’ll keep working on this but at least I can now burn a DVD movie.

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?

  • Unable to play some movie from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up which says "cannot play movie. Please try again". Can anyone assist me? I just upgraded to iOS 7.1. Netflix not able to find problem.

    Unable to play some movies from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up "Cannot play movie. Please try again later." I contacted Netflix but have not been able the help so I am wondering if it's my iPad. I didn't have a problem before but I have recently upgraded to iOS 7.1. Also is a certain amount of storage needed to play a movie? About how much is that?

    Hello all,
    I have an iPad 2 16GB with iOS 7.0.3 and Netflix version 5.0.2. I cannot watch netflix on an External LCD monitor that I have through VGA out. I use bluetooth speakers, so the AirPlay is going to that for Audio. Before this update, this combo worked without an issue.
    So as of Friday Nov. 8/2013, I contacted Netflix support, and they said they fixed the problem on their end, and the fix is on the Apple side of things, and to contact Apple support.
    So, I contacted Apple support, and the first person I spoke to said I would have to agree to pay a $35 fee for 30 days of support to this problem since my unit is out of warranty. I said this isn't a hardware issue, it's a software issue, and I'm not willing to pay to fix a problem you created. So I got a Senior Level advisor on the line, and she was helpful, and she's looking into the issue for me and said she'll contact me sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday (Nov. 12 or 13) to let me know of the issue.
    Here's the thing: this is a combination of Netflix and iOS not working correctly with any of the Apple Authorized Dongles. This is truly a code error that some hot shot programmer had major oversight on, and their management didn't catch it either. There was no reason for Netflix to rush to get this Netflix update going until Apple sorted out the bugs in iOS 7.
    Anyway, if I hear anything from Donna (the advisor), I'll post it and let you guys know. In the mean time, good luck!

    Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

  • Cannot share desktop - Lync 2013 server and Windows 8 (64-bit) client

    Currently my new Lync server cannot share a desktop through a Lync 2013 client installed on a Windows 8 workstation. The client is patched up with the latest MS patches (much beyond the patch issues noted about a year ago, the patches in question do not
    even show up as installed).
    I get the same "An error occurred during the screen presentation" message. I do have a NVIDIA video cards on the workstations, but they too are patched up. The same systems have no issues sharing desktop screens in the Lync 2013 client on Windows
    8 systems when they are connected to a Lync 2010 server.
    I have no idea where to go from here. Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.

    Did this issue happen to other Lync 2013 client?
    As you mentioned that you can used the same Lync 2013 to sharing desktop screen when it connects Lync Server 2010 while you couldn’t share desktop screen when it connects to Lync Server 2013,
    I think it is related with Lync Server.
    Please check if you can find any errors on Lync Front End Server.
    Check all Lync server services are all started.
