Chapters for iMovie 11 for Mavericks.

I would like to create music videos in iMovie 11 for Mavericks and without chapters I can't go to a particular track when I burn it to a DVD.
Is there any way around this problem? Is there something I am missing?
I would really like Apple to re-introduce chapters in the next iMovie update.

Thanks for that reply.
I imported the movie into iMovie 9 and created chapters, but the quality of the picture lessened.
The chapters worked perfectly, but the inferior quality of the picture was disappointing.
I really appreciate your advice.
Maybe Final Cut Pro still has chapters?
Also, Apple still sell their SuperDrive. It's almost ageist to think all generations don't need DVDs now that we have YouTube Facebook etc.
(That last comment was just me thinking out loud)
Thanks again

  • Chapters for multiple iMovie projects (movies) in a single iDVD project

    I sent three iMovie '11 projects with chapter markers to Media Browser. I dragged each of the movies from the Media Browser into a single iDVD project. Dragging the first movie resulted in the creation of one button named "play movie" and one button named "scene selections". But dragging in the second and third movies resulted in only a "play movie" button for each movie--no "scene selections". Does iDVD not allow multiple movies to have sub-menus? Am I required to combine the three projects while still in iMovie (such that there is in effect only two levels possible, not three)? From the description of how to create a project in iDVD, I was under the impression that I could have three main buttons (Sydney, Matakohe, and Brisbane), and have each sporting chapters. It would change the organization substantially to have reduce the structure to only two levels. And I've seen nothing that says this cannot be done.

    Thanks for your comments. It strikes me as exceedingly odd that a program that is made for creating projects out of multiple movies provides scene selections (chapters) for only the first movie added. I also find it odd that this little fact is not mentioned anywhere and that I am apparently the first person in history to want to have a sub-menu for each movie in a project. I have had many views on this discussion group and on the iMovie '11 discussion group, but yours is the only answer so far. Why does the manual or Help (for both iDVD and iMovie) not say "Oh, by the way, you can add all the movies you want, but don't expect to get any chapters for them" (it makes little sense to provide chapters for one movie, if you can't for the rest). And, in iMovie: "if you are planning to put more than one movie on a DVD, don't waste your time adding chapter markers. They can't be used in iDVD."
    I have Toast Titanium 6. It's a pretty old version, but I was able to use it to use it for something recently. Thanks again.

  • In iMovie 10.1 for Mavericks, how do I output in .mov format?

    In iMovie 10.1 for Mavericks, how do I export a movie in .mov format?

    Thanks Pieter.  It looks like streamclip might work albeit a bit messier.  It is very disappointing that the latest iMovie does not seem to be able to directly output to the .mov file format.
    It looks like going back to the previous version of iMovie might be the best choice.
    Regarding your curiosity,  I am submitting a slide show for a theatre presentation.  The rules state:
    Slideshows must be submitted as single video files in .MOV format. Any slideshows submitted in a different format will be rejected.

  • Is iSight camera recording disabled on the latest version of iMovie for Mavericks?

    Using the latest version of iMovie for Mavericks, can we record directly from iSight camera, or the software only allows videos imported from HD Cameras and PhotoBooth?

    Use the import button.

  • Is iMovie V 10.0.1 "only" for Mavericks?

    I just read that there is an update for iMovie.  But when I checked for updates my system says that I have the current, which is Version 9.0.9   I have Mac OS X (Lion 10.7).   Is this update V 10.0.1 only for "Mavericks"?

    Thank your lucky stars it's not available for you. The controls are much nicer than the previous version, but the quality of the videos after you've uploaded them to YouTube are much worse. So stick with what you have for as long as you can. I'm saving my pennies so I can buy FinalCut. It's a very sad time for me. I love my Mac but I don't like what I'm seeing from 1 Infinite Loop. 

  • How to make chapters in iMovie for iDVD?

    A long time ago, in iMovie HD, you could make chapters, and iDVD would honor them. Perhaps I still can in iMovie 11, but I can't find it. Please let me know if it is still possible, and how.
    Maybe they are not called chapters?

    Hi
    There are Chapters in iMovie'11
    Project window - You have to select a project to be edited - so that just this show up - top and right hand corner there are two small brown/red things (to the right of the three blue squares) that Mark or Chapter-mark
    Things reg. Chapters
    • Do not set any Chapter mark at - VERY beginning or End - as iDVD want's to do this by it self and get's confused
    • Do not set any Chapter mark in or within (2 sec from) any Transition !
    (This You can do a work around if You MUST - Export out movie as a Full Quality QuickTime .mov file then re-import this into iMovie and use this in a NEW Project - and now You can set Chapters in transitions without any problem)
    • When delivered to iDVD - DO NOT GO BACK to iMovie or FCE/P to make any adjustments - This set off the iDVD BUG resulting in that all Chapters points to Chapter one.
    If done Medicine is to trash movie in iDVD and clean Media Assets - then re-import - or start a new iDVD project
    AND
    I never use "Share to iDVD" as results get's bad to me - I do "Share to Media Browser" and as Large and in iDVD import from this.
    Best result I get is by using iMovie HD6 or FinalCut Express or Pro as they don't discard every second line as iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 does.

  • Where can I find an oline manual for Mail for Mavericks?

    I am looking for an oline manual for Mail for Mavericks to learn about its featires/functionality before I switch to the MAC. Is there such a manual and if so, please share a link (I could not locate it). Thanks.

    There is this online resource: https://www.apple.com/support/mac-apps/mail/

    When you go to the Epson website for this particular printer it says:

    I second OMT8.
    Yes, the driver file at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398 allowed me to finally install my printer, but does Apple have _any idea_ how long it takes to download a 1.08GB file over a 1.5mbps DSL connection?
    Never mind how much of my pricey new SSD is being consumed by the resulting 1.80GB of driver files all for _one_ printer driver that should maybe occupy 200K?
    Or that the primary article on OS X printer drivers (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669) -- which does indicate that the Artisan 830 is supported -- does not mention or link to the driver file that's needed to make it work?
    Or what a complete violation of Apple's "it just works" gestalt it is to be confronted with the above Catch-22 and to have to search the web and then go through all of the above to make a new laptop talk to a two-year-old printer?
    Yes, my printer now works, and yes, Apple's Support Communities were instrumental in getting to this point. But spending all morning (plus download time) getting a printer driver installed tastes way too much like I paid for Apple and got Microsquish.

  • If i purchase os x server for mountain lion would i have to purchase it for mavericks again?

    Want to study it now on my mbp and then use it with mavericks on mac mini in several weeks.

    We don't know what Apple plans here for pricing nor for upgrade offers for Mavericks, if any.
    AFAIK, no previous OS X Server upgrades have had upgrades; it's been a re-purchase.
    Please check back after Mavericks is announced.
    FWIW, OS X Server doesn't work all that well on a MacBook Pro or other portable computers, as OS X Server and most other server operating systems really prefer to have static IP and not DHCP-assigned dynamic addresses, and laptops tend to migrate from network to network and use DHCP.  Haven't looked recently, but older versions of OS X Server expressly didn't support portable Macs, and for this reason.

  • Trying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.

    rying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    What EXACT version of Photoshop CS4 are you running?  You should be on Photoshop CS4 v 11.0.2.
    Also run Apple's software update to see whether it offers you the latest Epson update:
    Printer Driver v9.33
    Epson Stylus Pro 3880, Drivers & Downloads - Technical Support - Epson America, Inc.
    MOST IMPORTANTLY:  have Photoshop re-create its own Preferences:
    To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
    Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
    Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
    Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
    NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:

    Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If  you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

  • Where can I find a User Manual for Mavericks?

    Is there a Mavericks User Manual? If so, where can I find it?

    Hi..
    There is no user manual per se.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Help > Help Center then use keywords to find what you need help with.
    There are books available for purchase such as OS X Mavericks for Dummies at Amazon here.
    Since OS X Yosemite will be released most likely this month, you may want to hold off purchasing any books for Mavericks.

  • Download error for mavericks

    My download for mavericks stops at 995.5 mb. Please provide some solution.

    Hi anujsehgal,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your OS X Mavericks download did not complete, first see if you can resume the download using the steps below:
    If downloading an app is interrupted
    Once an Internet connection is reestablished, your purchased downloads should automatically restart. The Mac App Store may alert you that there was an issue with the download and ask if you'd like to restart the download(s). Confirming will restart all pending downloads. For more information on this topic, see Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads.
    See Troubleshooting the Mac App Store for more information. 
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Where do i find os x server for mavericks?

    Hello Mac Technical Family,
    Where do I find OS X Server for Mavericks?  I do recall purchasing it sometime ago through my App Store account, but I've had multiple projects since touching Server under OS 10.8.  Now the app store only makes Server for Yosemite available. I have a case created with Apple and they are researching but it may be 48 hours before anyone reads and responds.  I'm hoping someone out there can respond with a quicker reference to either the link of supply info regarding the best alternative to get the Server piece.
    *I can't run Casper on the Server under 10.10.1 due to a couple of things that Casper doesn't like (so I'm in a catch 22 until JAMF creates a fix for 10.10.1).
    Thanks for the direction and feedback!

    Apple have unnecessarily removed the visible entries to re-download Server.app 2.x for Mountain Lion, and 3.x for Mavericks from peoples 'Previous Purchases' lists.
    As per the link provided by keg55 you can - if you have previously purchased these versions re-download it despite this.
    I suspect Apple's thinking is that -
    All Macs that can run Mountain Lion or Mavericks can run Yosemite
    Yosemite is a free upgrade
    Therefore all users should upgrade to Yosemite and then get Server 4.x
    Note: If you have previously purchased Server.app 1.x for Lion then this is still listed in Previous Purchased because not all Lion compatible machines can run Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite.

  • I did re-set my password and when I click on Install for Mavericks, I still get a box for "administrator password" and it still won't accept my new password. Is there a difference between my Apple ID and the administrator password they're asking for?

    I downloaded Mavericks and it won't install. I did re-set my password and when I click on Install for Mavericks, I still get a box for "administrator password" and it still won't accept my new password. Is there a difference between my Apple ID and the administrator password they're asking for? I never had an administrator password-- I just hit enter and have never had a problem before with previous installations. I'm on an iMac, from 2007, running Mt. Lion (version 10.8.5). I've been looking for other's posts who may be having the same problem, but haven't found any. Can anyone help?

    Ugh. The 'no password, no work' thing is a recent Apple development. I ran into it on my system and ended up having to do a clean install on a partition I fully erased.
    I suppose, if you have the ability to, go online and look up how to burn a bootable DVD image. Download the 10.8.4 image then use the Disk Utility to make a boot image of it. You'll need a dual-layer DVD or a USB drive (or memory stick at least 8GB) If you've got an optical drive, burn the disk, if you've a USB device, use that.
    Then get a pocket drive and copy your important files off the system or let Time Machine do a full backup.
    When the backup is done, insert the disk and hold down the C key until the machine boots off of the DVD. At the point you get to the start window, go to the menu and choose the Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility, reformat the drive. You go to the actual DRIVE (not the Macintosh HD, but the root above it that is the actual hard drive device)
    I always do this and *partition* it into several volumes, the benefit being, you can store all of your music, documents and importans stuff on that secondary storage volume you make - it will have it's own index and then the first volume is where you put the OS and it will have it's own index as well. That way, if the OS throws a wobbler and you need to reinstall, you don't lose your data.
    Depending on the size of your hard drive, it is good to give your OS partition at least 60GB and optimally 100GB, and the rest for storage.
    Name your volumes, use the little box sliders to manually size them or put that number in the size window, select for the format, Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and hit Apply and then the Disk Utility will quickly create your new partitions.
    Once finished, quit the Utility and it will return you to the OS installer. Select the volume you want to install to and it should start up and install.
    Once the installation is done, you'll get the new machine startup then you MUST put in a password for the computer. Once you're in, and to the desktop, don't bother with any Mountain Lion updates, go right to the App Store and get the Mavericks update and let it install the app to your Applicaitons folder, then do that install.
    On a side note, there MAY be a way to make a disk image from the Mavericks application and avoid the entire Mountain Lion step.. I honestly do not know, but a bit of hitting the search engines may find out if there is. I think that if you looked for "make Mavericks boot disk or boot image' you may find something.
    Good luck!

  • Recovery disk assistant for Maverick

    I installed Maverick without a hitch.  I have Time Machine working.  I want to create a Recovery Disk on a USB.  I had previously done this under Mountain Lion using the Recovery Disk Assistant.  When I open this program to create a new Recovery Disk (for Maverick) the program says
    "The Recovery Disk Assistant creates a disk that you can use to recover your Mac OSX Lion system".
    Since I no longer have OS X Lion, will this program still work?
    Thanks
