Clips don't play without stopping

Just started usingiMovie 6:0:1 for the first time, so sorry if this is a dumb question, but when I drag my clips into the clip viewer each individual clip will play, but not all of them together - i.e. the movie will stop at the end of the clip and won't continue into the next one. Any thoughts? Thanks.
MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

Hi abides:
Welcome to discussions!
You can drag the clips to the timeline and play them all-just be sure not to select any of them...in other words-do not highlight one of the clips or that is all it will play.
Does that help?

  • Clips don't play back - screen is white/blank.

    Hey... can anyone help with this problem? I thought I'd try here before calling anyone. I don't know how this happened because I don't think I did anything or changed any settings. When I open up iMovie HD and record a clip and then try to play it back, the playback screen is white (blank). The marker at the bottom (i.e. the thing that shows what position the clip is in) moves forward normally, as if the clip is playing, but you see nothing. The still image of the clip shows up fine in the clips section on the right, but the actual clip won't play. HOWEVER, if I go to edit the clip, like add special effects or whatever, it WILL play while I'm messing around with the effects (though obviously the sound doesn't play). So I know the clip, y'know, isn't a figment of my imagination. :P
    Anyone know what the **** this is about? Thanks, I'd really appreciate it.

    (i.e. the thing that shows what position the clip is in) FFR this is the play head.
    Yes, Apple can. First you need to tell them about it and report the bug.
    Subject: I/O API. iMovie
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/imovie.html
    If you can confirm the Quartz effects as working please report this as a Bug in iMovie Feedback.
    Notice below I did say preview. This is something that has stuck out as it is easily replicable and very odd.
    "A glance across all the Apple boards and you can tie everything into this new API as it is the root. QT is a major part but I don't believe it is a problem other than being at a higher degree of accuracy tan in the past, i.e. the Quartz effects in iMovie preview fine.
    So no it is not a figment of your imagination. Please report it.
    Its all about the I/O API.
    Thanks

  • New Sony DCR-SR200 clips don't play audio in iMovie 09

    I have previously imported 100's of video clips from Sony DCR-SR200 to imovie 09 with no issue.
    I imported several more yeterday and none play the audio...including some that I had previously imported (and work fine) and had left on the camera and re-imorted. I played one of the files with Streamclip and there is audio.
    running iMovie 09 v 8.0.6  and OS X 10.6.5
    any ideas?

    Found the answer to my problem.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1372
    Seems that Apple has been reading the Microsoft playbook and by providing a free "upgrade" to iMovie 09 from 08 has now removed the ability to import MPEG2 files directly...where previously you could.
    I can now pay to upgrade to '11 which claims to support MPEG2 on this camera. Has anyone else been down this road and paid to fix what Apple broke for free? Cost isn't the issue, just hoping to avoid the hassle of the upgrade to discover it won't work
    Thanks

  • Why this program don't work without the "stop"?

    can you tell me why this program don't work without "stop"?and why the "stop" of my program can not work？

    The stop button is checked once in every iteration of the while loop, which includes waiting for the for loop to complete its 9 iteration.
    The for loop takes 9 seconds to complete because of the time delay, therefore clicking the stop button can take upto 18 seconds, depending on whether the button has been read yet.
    Turn on the highlight execution )light bulb icon) to see what is happening in your code

  • I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
    A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds.  Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.

  • HT3775 Why won't a video clip play all the way through without stopping and loading so many times?

    Any video clip that comes via email will not play all the way through without stopping so many times to load that a short clip takes 10 minutes to watch.  Sometimes, the video simply stops and loads forever and ceases to work at all.
    This happens for Youtube videos also.
    I am using a Snow Leopard Imac.

    This happens for Youtube videos also.
    Uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin then reinstall new.
    Very important to uninstall the old first.
    Uninstall >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Then reinstall new from here >   http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Then restart your Mac.

  • Clips that don't play

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post my question, but maybe someone could help me.
    I was following an on-line tutorial for basic Flash gaming. How to use the arrow keys to move your movie clip around the screen.
    I followed the tutorial pretty closely. I got the arrows working: my character moves in all the right directions,
    and goes to the appropriate frames they're supposed to, within the main charcter movie clip, but the movie clips on those frames don't play.
    So the character just glides around, instead of running.
    I have a movie clip on a frame for RIGHT, LEFT, UP ,DOWN When the movie clips are played individually in the library, they work, the charcter runs, but when the actionscript goes to play the frame they're on, they remain stuck in the first frame of their animation and they just glide around on the screen.
    because the arrows work, but not the clips.
    Does anyone have an Idea why the clips aren't playing?
    I'm using Flash CS3, Action Script 3,
    Scene1 has 2 Layers, one frame on each. One for the main character movie clip, that has a Layer inside it with four frames, each frame labled and containing the movies clips that don't play in the final SWF.
    The other Layer has the script. The script shows no errors. I don't think it's the script, It has to be something with the movie clips or the frames they're on.
    If this isnt the right forum for this question, can someone refer somewhere else?
    thanks

    no.   the movie clips don't have stop() actions on them, however,  they each have their own frame inside the main movie clip.  the frames are labeled, and the script has gotoAndStop() that references each frame.  The script goes to and stops at the frames as it's supposed to, but doesn't play the clip on that frame.   I already tried gotoAndPlay() , but it doesn't work either.
    the movieclips are movie clip symbols, when i click them in the library they run, but don't loop.  I have to keep clicking play to replay the clip.   They do however loop when placed on the stage and tested in the scene.  But, of course, wont play at all when nested on the frames of the main character movieclip.

  • Can smbody please tell me what to do to my iPhone 4s, when playing music or ringer, the sound will just stop without stop it.. I am really getting tired of this...

    Can smbody please tell me what to do to my iPhone 4s, when playing music or ringer, the sound will just stop without stop it.. I am really getting tired of this...

    After updating to iOS6, I lost all sound for apps like YouTube, Netflix, games, and even notifications. The only time sound worked was during a phone call or when the head set was plugged in.
    I did a full back up and restore- sound restored but only for a day before the problem returned.
    Called Apple Support and was advised to do another restore, but this time restore it as NEW first, then do the restore from back up.
    Seemed to do the trick.
    Here are the instructions of what I was given- hopefully this will help you too:
    Here is a link about backing up your iPhone with iTunes.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    Once you back up your device you will want to restore it.
    You will need to have iTunes open on your computer screen.
    Please turn your iPhone off.
    Press and hold the Home Button.
    Continue to hold the Home Button as you plug you iPhone in to the usb cable.
    You will want to continue to hold the Home button until you get a screen with the message "device found in recovery mode".
    Please follow the prompts and restore device as NEW.
    once the restore is done you will have to set up the device and test the sound.
    If it works you will then need to restore the device from the back up to restore your user settings.
    You can find the instructions how to restore from back up also from the the link I provided.

  • How can I get itunes on my i pad to play single songs in a playlist without stopping it manually?

    How can I get itunes on my i pad to play single songs in a playlist without stopping it manually?

    To turn on the check marks on, say, 150 consecutive songs in a list, do the following:
    Click on the first song in the list.
    Scroll to the last (150th) song in the list.
    Hold the shift key down while clicking the last song in the list.
    All 150 songs will then be highlighted.  Click the check box in one of the 150 songs and all songs will exhibit the same behavior.

  • FCP7 HELP - Exported quicktime mov plays differently than what I edited on the timeline. The playback shows the clips with ins and outs that are different than what I set in the clips when I edited - some are too early and the clips don't playback

    Please help ASAP.
    Specs: IOS 10.6.8
    Processor 2.4GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 -- Everything is edited, sourced, and stored on an 2TB external hard drive to make things go faster.
    Editing with FCP 7
    When I export the sequence I edited with quicktime, the playback video is very different from what I edited on the timeline. The playback has the clips with ins and outs that are way off than what I cut, and some of the clips don't show at all or have changed transitions. However when I play in the timeline in FCP, the sequence is fine, just the way I cut it.
    The source of the clips was one long .mov that I cut into clips for the timeline. Everything has gone smoothly but the exported .mov is just so different.
    How can I get the time codes of the clips to be the same in the exported .movs? I just want the quicktime .mov to represent my edit exactly.
    This video is due tomorrow - if the solution is too time consuming, can I play within the FCP player window and Log and Capture?
    Thanks,
    MV

    What is your source material? Is it H.264? FCP does not work correctly with that material.
    Click on a source clip in the FCP Browser, and once selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties, or take a screen shot of the item properties, and post that here.
    Next, click anywhere in your timeline, and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your Sequence Settings. Either report those Sequence Settings, or take a screen shot of the Sequence Settings and post that here.

  • TS1702 How do I stop unwelcome Huffington Post news article videos from playing without being prompted??

    When I open a news story on the Huffington Post App on my iPhone, the video associated with the story starts playing without being prompted.  Anyone know how to turn off this feature?  I've used this App for years and this problem has just started within the last week.  Thanks!

    Don't use the app. That's about the only way to avoid it that I know of.

    I purchased and downloaded an episode of a television show onto my MacBook pro, as I have done before, but this time it only plays without audio. What gives?

    Okay, so the download is possibly corrupt.  Did you try downloading again?
    Also, you'll likely get more appropriate responses posting to the iTunes for MAC forum instead of the iTunes for Windows forum where this currently is.

    My iphone5 itunes playlist seems to have a mind of it's own, after selecting a song to play it will randomly flash through songs on my playlist without stopping. I've rebooting, and restored my iphone with no results. does anyone know how to stop this from happening? also I am having trouble syncing songs from my library on my computer to my iphone. the songs so up on my playlist on the computer, but will not synch over to my iphone5. Thank you.

    Hi TakesTwo2Tango,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  It sounds like you should definitely be seeing a plus sign after tapping Edit, so I would try a couple relatively easy things (closing the Music app, resetting the iPhone):

  • My playlists don't play in the right order. How can I make it stop shuffling the order of the songs?

    I have an ipod nano. I don't know what generation. It's about 1.5 in square with a touch screen. I've had it for several years and never had a problem with it till now. The playlists don't play in order anymore. How do I get control of that back?

    Never mind. I found the answer on another site. Thanks anyway.
