Capturing screen shots in iMovie

Hi,
I want to capture screen shots of my movie in iMovie to have still images from different scenes to then edit in photoshop. Is this possible, or do I need to get specific software for that? Does anybody know how to capture screen shots from an iMovie?
Thanks,
quadruple

Position your cursor where you want the still.
Right-click and select ADD STILL TO PROJECT
You will see the still added to the en of your project.
Now right-click on the still and select SHOW IN FINDER
In the finder, right click on the still JPEG file and select COPY.
Now you can paste the still onto your desktop or a folder of your choice and import into iPhoto or Photoshop.
If you don't want to clutter your video project with stills at the end, you can start a new project for just the stills. Then you place the cursor within your EVENT at the point you want a still. Then Right-click and select ADD Still TO PROJECT. This keeps things tidy.

  • Capture Screen Shot not working in Full Motion

    I am trying to use Full Motion Recording to capture mouse
    movement, while also manually capturing screen shots. The screen
    shots are not being captured though. I've tried the default Print
    Screen key, and also resetting it to the Down key, with no success.
    I can capture the screen shots when Full Motion Recording is not
    active.
    The information in the Help files and Knowledgebase seem to
    indicate that it's possible to manually capture screens while
    recording full motion. Any suggestions about what could be going
    wrong?
    Thanks.

    Hi LisaLouLou and welcome to our community
    I think the help may be misleading you here. If you are
    recording by using the total “Full Motion Capture”,
    Captivate ignores the Print Screen key because you have told it
    that the entire project is to be recorded using Full Motion. Hence,
    there is no slide by slide based recording as there is using the
    other options.
    After you have recorded, you are free to insert blank slides,
    then add images as needed in case that helps.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How to capture Screen Shot

    I was wondering how to capture a screen shot after upgrading to 3.1.3

    Hi all,
    I've just found this thread. I do not know how to capture a screen shot on my iPhone 3G. There are many times I wish I could click on my iPhone the equivilent of "alt-PrtScr" and paste the .jpg into an email or .doc. Am I missing something very simple built into my iPhone 3G 3.1.2? Is there an iPhone app for this function?
    Any help is appreciated.

  • Could not capture screen shot, camera stop working

    Hi,
    I have the iPhone original. Yesterday, it stopped save image to album. I could not take screen shot (home + PowerOn button). It gave me the "click" sound, but the image was not in album. Camera did not save photo to album either. I have enough disk space on the iphone. Anyone knows why?
    Thanks,

    I had this same problem twice with both of my old iPhones and this solution worked for me both times:

    Re: Camera will not save pictures to phone after snapping photo
    Posted: Nov 3, 2007 11:35 AM in response to: Kevin Barron
    Friends,
    I've found a solution to the problem. This might actually be a solution to hundreds of problems with the iPhone. Apparently there are "system" files that get backed up to the computer -- including SMS discussion history, notes, wireless network history, and other information. When the iPhone is restored from one of these backups, it is possible to have corrupted system files restored along with the problems they create.
    METHOD #1 -- LEAST DESTRUCTIVE
    1. Synchronize iPhone. This also creates a backup of the notes and other items that don't get synchronized anywhere else.
    2. Go to Settings, General, Erase All Content and Settings
    3. Once complete, connect the phone and synchronize with iTunes
    4. Choose to restore from the recent backup to recover your notes, SMS history, and iPhone settings as well as data that is normally synchronized. Your problems may be gone.
    METHOD #2 -- YOU WILL LOSE NOTES, SMS HISTORY, AND OTHER SETTINGS
    If the first method didn't work, try this procedure.
    1. Synchronize iPhone. This also creates a backup of the notes and other items that don't get synchronized anywhere else.
    2. Go to Settings, General, Erase All Content and Settings
    3. Once complete, connect the phone and synchronize with iTunes
    4. Choose NOT to restore from the recent backup. As you continue, you will lose notes, SMS history, and iPhone settings as well as data that is normally synchronized. However, corrupted system files (such as the internal camera roll files) will be replaced with fresh non-corrupted versions and everything should work.
    Method #2 above worked for me. I needed to re-assign personalized ring tones, enter Wireless network passwords again, setup my wallpaper, and do a few other things, but at least the iPhone camera was working again!
    It seems that Method #2 (phone reset and loose all settings) is the best way to resolve issues with corrupted system files.
    Good luck! I hope this helps.

  • Screen Capture (Screen Shot) file default

    The screen capture hidden shortcut using command, shift 4 keys creates an image in the png file format. Is there a way of changing that default to jpg format so I don't have to convert each time in Preview?

    Someone will come along in a minute and offer you the unix code to do so, but if you prefer a program that can do it for you, download Deeper (search at macupdate.com or versiontracker.com). Deeper gives you control over file type and default save location for screenshots, as well as all kinds of other (safe) tweaks you can do to the Mac OS.

    Aside from using any number of SMS backup tools just hold the power and volume down buttons down at exactly the same time.

  • Change date/time format in Screen Shot file name?

    I capture Screen Shots all day long.  But when I go to look for the one I just took, it's not always at the bottom of the list.  That's because Mac names them as e.g.
    Screen Shot 2014-04-29 at 1.19.04 PM.png (and the order gets screwed up).
    Can I change to make save as e.g.
    Screen Shot 2014-04-29 at 13.19.04.png (this way they'll always stay in order).
    Thanks for any help.

    You may have to change system time format globally. Is it worth ?

  • How (in windows 8)  could I make an screen shot of a PDF figure or table

    In windows 8, How could I make an screen shot of a figure or table?

    The Windows 8/RT operating system can take screen shots.  Please see the Microsoft Windows Support page below.
    Take a screen shot (print your screen)
    With the steps above, it is possible to capture screen shots of your entire screen or one window.
    Please note that Adobe Reader Touch does not provide the functionality to extract or export any objects (text, images, tables, etc.) from a PDF document (yet).

  • Resizing Screen Shots for Print

    Hello,
    I have been tasked with capturing screen shots in order to print them in a manual. I used PrtScr and saved them as a .TIFF. I know there are problems with this kind of printing, and I was hoping to learn the "right way" since I will have to do this quite often.
    I have read in profession book and magazine printing articles that they re-create the screen shot because screen shots just don't print well, so I am not expecting miracles. I just want to get a process in place so these screen shots can look the best they can without re-drawing them or something.
    So when I opened the screen shots in Photoshop they are 96dpi and the pixel dimensions are 1122x871. I would like to reduce the pixel dimensions by 1/3 as they are too large, and increase the resolution, but I am pretty sure that won't do much. Plus the screen shot looks blurry and unsharp mask doesn't fix it much.
    Any help with this process would be appreciated.

    To me it seems a screen shot at 1100+ pixels and printed in a small manual could end up with the user interface elements printing so small that they could be difficult to see in the final print.  As an example, consider how big the menu being shown will be a print at, say, 4.5" width of both of these screens:
    Some other things to consider:
    Along the same lines as the above, you might want to turn up the Windows display scale factor.  Windows 7 provides settings in the Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display dialog.  At 150% the characters and UI elements are made up of more pixels.
    Consider also turning off ClearType font smoothing as these will only make the letters in prints seem fringed with color - not normally a good visual.

  • CM 6 & CM 7 IP Phone Screen Shots

    I am trying to capture screen shots from various models of Cisco phones using Call Manager 6 & Call Manager 7, both with Active Directory integration. The http://[IPAddressofphone]/CGI/Screenshot will yield either an error "0" or "4" depending on which version of CM I am trying this on. Any advise on how to capture screenshots in these environments is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    when you go to that url, do you get prompted for authentication details?
    also, what is the authentication url in your enterprise parameters?
    make sure the user account you authenticate with has a device association with that phone

  • OT: Best font to use for screen shots...

    Any one have suggestions on the best font & OS font
    settings (DPI, etc),
    browser, etc, to use to capture screen shots from a web site
    for use in a
    PDF brochure?
    Client is complaining the text in the screen shots is looking
    very digitized
    and I don't necessarily disagree, but it is a 'screen shot'.
    TIA

    David,
    This was an excellent tip. It works well.
    Thanks again,

  • Take screen shot with AIR application

    Hi,
    Anybody know about how to capture screen shot of our screen with an desktop AIR application? I need to create an desktop app with screenshot taking feature.
    Thanks

    Yes,
    I think you can use the ImageSnapShot class, and thern use the bitmap data from it as you desire.
    You can use the snapshot to take a grab of any element/child in your application or presumably you can take a snapshot of the main application if you want the whole lot.
    I used this method recently to print a screen state.
    var imgWidth:Number = 400;
    var img:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader();
    img.id = "appSnapShot";
    var imageSnap:ImageSnapshot = ImageSnapshot.captureImage(myScreenInstance as IBitmapDrawable);
    var imageByteArray:ByteArray = imageSnap.data as ByteArray;
    img.load(imageByteArray);
    img.scaleContent = true;
    img.width = imgWidth;
    img.maintainAspectRatio = true;
    application.addElement(img);
    Maybe that will help.

  • Capture Screen and Stream

    I can't figure out how to get started creating a Flash swf
    that will capture screen shots of say 20 computers that log into a
    Flash Media Server application that sends the picture of what the
    students are doing every so often.
    Any help to get into the right direction would be
    great.

    Unfortunately the presentation is a live software demo. We may actually do a little Keynote to start things off, then switch to Revit running in Windows running in Parallels, and vary things based on questions and comments from the audience. Very dynamic, and getting it all is the only viable option.
    As for the aggregate device, I think that would miss the point of being able to mute the room track the vast majority of the time, the presenter track at times, and sometimes both. I think I will need to do the room direct to GB, while the presenter is recorded via iShowU.
    I know, probably pushing everything further than it can really go, but I want to at least try. Not even an option if I was presenting in Windows on hardware!
    Thanks,
    Gordon
