Clip splitting and then copying

Hello all,
I guess there should be already an answer to my question somewhere, but as I haven't found it in less than 30 minutes, I then add a new post:
I've imported a big .dv clip (export from a friend's iMovie project — the original scenes are no longer available) in a new project, and used the "cmd-T" to split it into small scenes. I've removed some of them, shorten others, etc. and emptied the trash at the end.
When I then try to use one of the small clips in another project, or just copy it on my HD, it copies actually the whole big .dv clip...!
How can I copy just one single little clip?
Thank for any kind of help.

Famille,
Welcome to the Discussions!
"How can I copy just one single little clip?"
Select the clip in the timeline the choose Share>QuickTime>Full Quality and check the "Share Selected Clips Only" checkbox. Click the Share Button.
The resulting clip and then be dragged into your new project.

  • Can some please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates?  I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my Mac

    Can someone please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates?  I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my new Mac.  I ended up getting a bunch of duplicates. My old Mac has an older version of iPhoto while the new Mac has iPhoto '11.  Is that the cause of the problem?  Please advise.  Thanks.

    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

  • Is there a way to select MULTIPLE tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs and titles/or URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; However, I prefer to use a Firefox feature rather than download an add on. Thanks.

    Currently, I can copy ONE tab's url and nothing else (not its name). Or I can bookmark all tabs that are open. However, I'd like to have the ability to select multiple tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs AND their titles/or copy ALL of the URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; when I download the add on, I get a message saying that using the add on will disable Firefox's tab features. I prefer to use Firefox features rather than download and use an add on. Is there a way to do this without an add on?

    Hi LRagsdale517,
    You should definitely be able to upload multiple files by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking the files you want to upload. Just to make sure you don't have an old version of the service cached, please clear the browser cache and then log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. After clicking the File Upload icon in the upper-right corner, you should be able so select multiple files for upload.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,

    I have Windows XP and Adobe 9 Reader and need to send a series of large documents to clients as a matter of urgency When I convert 10 pages a MS-Word file to Pdf this results in file of 6.7 MB which can't be emailed.  Do I combine them and then copy to JPEG 2000 or do I have to save each page separately which is very time consuming Please advise me how to reduce the size and send 10 pages plus quickly by Adobe without the huge hassles I am enduring

    What kind of software do you use for the conversion to pdf? Adobe Reader can't create pdf files.

  • HT201317 When I view photos on my devices some are not oriented correctly. I used Picassa to turn all photos upright and then copied those photos into the upload file but they are still not corrected when viewed on my devices (ipads)

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

  • HT1420 Can I download a movie onto my authorised computer and then copy if onto USB stick to put in the TV?

    Can I download a movie onto my authorised computer and then copy if onto a USB to plug into our TV?

    If you mean a movie purchased from the iTunes Store then the answer is no. Movies purchased from the iTunes Store are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) in this case using Apple's 'FairPlay' scheme and this prevents you simply copying and playing the file.
    You can however purchase a movie from the iTunes Store and either play it via iTunes on a Mac or PC which could be connected to your TV, or you can use an Apple TV device which is specifically made for this purpose.
    See http://www.apple.com/appletv/
    If on the otherhand you mean just a movie you have downloaded from a website which is nothing to do with Apple's iTunes Store then it very much depends on the format of the movie. Some 'Smart' TVs can play some movie file formats from USB memory sticks. You will need to check the specs of your TV to see what formats it supports.

  • HT5569 Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an iPad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password protected network?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an ipad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password proctected newwor?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Yes, if both the Mac and iPad are setup using the same iCloud account, then any notes you enter on the Mac will be synced across to the iPad almost instantly.
    Same occurs with the 1Password app I mentioned. If you have both the Mac and iPad versions of it, and setup either iCloud or Dropbox syncing, any passwords entered on the Mac will be synced to the app running on the iPad ready for copying and pasting. This would be the most secure method, but not the cheapest.

  • I want to create a 6X9 book template and then copy my 81/2 x 11 copy into it.

    I want to create a 6X9 book template and then copy my 81/2 x 11 copy into it. Thanks

    select the book in the source pane on the left and duplicate it (command-D) and then click on the themes button and select the new size/style/theme  --  closely inspect the book to be sure it is still correct (text may reflow due to size changes as may photo arrangement) - preview (
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it. ) and order if it is what you want

  • Clean Reinstall of 10.5 and then copy over settings?

    My hard disk has a problem and will probably be replaced. I have the data cloned on a backup drive.
    What I would like to do is to do a clean install of Mac OX 10.5 and then copy over the applications and user preferences, settings, etc. Is there an easy or straightforward way to do this? I could start from scratch with the new system, but I like my settings, etc.
    Btw, I used Carbon Copy Cloner to back up my data.
    Thanks

    Why not boot up from the clone, and clone it back to the new HD?

  • Can I simply copy and paste an existing library file from XP to a Mac and then copy and paste the music files themselves? Of course, the music files will be in a different location...

    Hello Gurus,
    I have an aged XP machine with a large music library in ITunes. iTunes will not run any longer (tried uninstalling and reinstalling etc to no avail) but the music files are backed up onto an external drive so all safe. I have purchased a Mac which of course already has iTunes installed and I can copy the music files onto the Mac, but can I simply copy and paste the iTunes library files from the XP machine to the Mac so that all of the playlists, tags, ratings etc transfer, or do I have to start again?
    Thanks for the advice.

    Sounds like you have a split library. Ideally you would make this portable before attempting to move it to the Mac. See make a split library portable for details.
    Perhaps you can get iTunes running on the old box long enough to sort things out...
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    You will also want to deauthorize the XP system once everything is working properly on the Mac.

  • Importing problems: clips skip and then stop importing

    If you go into iMovie Help section, there is a troubleshooting section where this exact question is asked and "answered." However, the answer that they gave was not adequate and did not solve my problem.
    This is what happened-I was importing and all of a sudden i got to a part where it just starts to skip. It keeps skipping for a few seconds and then just stops importing. My camera is a MiniDV and the tape i used to record things is brand new. I also put in another tape that i had successfully imported in the past in my camera to see if the brand new tape was somehow defective, but the same thing happened with the old tape that i put in to import. Could it be the connecter? But if something was wrong with that wouldn't my computer not recognize my camera at all?
    Help me please! I want to finish the movie I'm making

    Hi
    Two most common origins to this:
    • You have stopped recording - rewind view and may be even took out the tape.
    = TimeCode on tape is boroken and needs to be mended
    • You have used LP-mode while recording. Don't and even more so if the recording
    was done on another Camera. Then LP-mode most often doesn't work. To sencitive.
    First situation:
    • Try to turn off in iMovie preferences menu: Import as individual clips.
    You might get the material in even if it is as a full block that needs to be cut up
    • Alt. If You got two Cameras + one FireWire 4-pin to 4-pin Cable
    Firts record one tape with just anything eg a wall (This will not be kept)
    Copy the problem tape onto the prerecorded one (with a complete TimeCode)
    Second sit:
    • Get the Original Camera and then
    • Try to turn off in iMovie preferences menu: Import as individual clips.
    You might get the material in even if it is as a full block that needs to be cut up
    • If in LP-mode (90min on a 60min tape) You also get sync problems so start with
    Clip on Timeline then Advance mebu and down to Exract Audio.
    Might help.
    Yours Bengt W

  • I was upgrading to iOS5, backed up files on my iphone4, when relaunching the iPhone, I decided to create a new profile (and then copy all contacts from the old profile). The old profile then got erased, together with all contacts. No old profile in iTunes

    I was upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS 5. The old files in my profile backed up. When relaunching the iPhone, I decided to create new profile on the iPhone, thinking I could copy my old contacts from the old profile (as iCloud seems to merge all contacts). When the ne profile was created on the iPhone, the old profile on iTunes disappared without a trace.  Please help restore my contacts.

    Did you use the Profile Manager or did you use reset to create that new profile?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
    A reset tries to import some data from the old profile and then moves the profile to the desktop, but if you use the Profile Manager then you need to copy that data yourself to the new profile.
    If you've deleted the old profile before making sure that your data has been recovered then you've lost that personal data.

  • How do I play and then copy DVD movie to mac for film editing

    I have just come home with my new mac book pro.  As recomended by the reseller I have connected an external  slim portable DVD writer/reader so that I can view, ...DVD's.  I am unable to view or copy the file contacts to the mac so that I can then later open the file in imovie for editing and clipping.

    You need to use a video encoder such as Handbrake (Free)
    https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/12987/handbrake
    or
    iFFMpeg - Shareware ($20.40)
    https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/35846/iffmpeg
    Once encoded you can edit using Final Cut or iMovie
