Consolidate Media does not do anything.

When I choose Consolidate Media it shows the options:  Copy the Events (3.2 GB); Copy the clips (2.8 GB), and; Move the Events (3.2 GB).  I've tried selecting all three.  In all three cases nothing happens.  I keep getting the same options. 
By way of background, I'm running iMovie '11, version 9.0.8 (1778), OS X Version 10.8.2, on a late 2009 13" Macbook. 
My goal is to transfer a working copy of a project to my 13" Macbook Pro Retina.  The issue is I am not able to get the pictures and the music.  I get the videos by selecting 'Copy projects and Events', but no music or pictures.  Ultimately, that's the problem I'm trying to solve.  I thought maybe that Consolidate Media would help, but maybe not. 
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
Patrick

First, you need an external drive attached. The external drive must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled)
You must move the Project to the external drive first.
The File ConsolidateMedia command will move everything else to where the project is. If events and projects are already on the same drive, there is nothing to consolidate.
It works only on iMovie Events. If your video clips are stored in iPhoto, it will not move them. It will, however, move a copy of any photos to the external drive.

  • System Recovery media does not support the computer. HELP!!!

    Ok problem here the recovery discs that were created do not work. And this is where I'm stuck.
    First the details. It's a DV7-6163CL Laptop with windows 7. The discs were created shortly after we got the computer. The reason we have to try and recover the computer is hard drive #1 failed and failed hard. Hard drive was replaced. Now after trying to use the recovery discs we get the error message after a few windows loading screens in Recovery Manger.
    "The system recovery media does not support this computer. You are not able to restore this computer with the media."
    Well Hp doesn't support his platform anymore due to its age.
    Is there anything I can do next to formatting the computer and getting a new OS?

    Many times this error is caused by missing info in BIOS. Can you enter BIOS-F10 at power on- and check for serial number,etc?
    Sometimes a new hdd requires prepping with Cyberlink Utility cd first. Download and Save the file. Once download is complete, put a blank cd in your drive and click the file to create a boot cd. Boot with this cd and wait until you get a green check mark indicating hdd is ready. Remove the cd , insert first Recovery Disk and restart the laptop.

  • Firefox displays "Stopped" in the status bar; stops all the tabs and does not do anything!

    Firefox displays "Stopped" in the status bar after running for a few minutes. It does not do anything on the page unless it is killed by opening the task manager. Sometimes I even have to restart the computer. And if that also doesn't work that shut down using the power button. Others have reported similar issues too.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == couple of weeks ago

  • Javax.scene.media.Media does not understand protocol "bundleresource"

    Hi
    I would like to play a sound file like this
    Media buzzer = new Media(MainApplication.class.getClassLoader().getResource("sounds/buzzer.mp3").toExternalForm());
    MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(buzzer);
    mediaPlayer.play();
    and I was suprised to get this exception:
    Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Unsupported protocol "bundleresource"
    at com.sun.media.jfxmedia.locator.Locator.<init>(Locator.java:233)
    at javafx.scene.media.Media.<init>(Media.java:391)
    I was suprised that Media does not support the protocol "bundleresource" when Image does. Of couse I can figure out the location of file and use File.toURI().toString() to get the URI I can pass on to Media.
    I am wondering why this pattern would work for an Image but not for a Media class? Does e(fx)clipse provide this protocol for Image (and could this be extended for Media) or is this built into JavaFX?
    Cheers

    No we are not doing anything special for Image which most likely uses
    Java-Streams whereas the media stuff directly delegates to the native
    code to fetch the stream from an URL. Looking at the code the only 2
    supported protocols are file: and http:

    It's happened to me before as well. Try holding both lock(top right) and home buttons simultaneously until u see a slight flash of wight then just reboot it normally. If that doesn't work try restoring your device from itunes

    Now i have a problem in it, all icons just shake and system hangs, needs restarting.

    You need to go back to the person you bought it from. Sounds like they may have sold you phone that is not as described.
    Did you check the warranty status before purchasing it?

    TIA

    Hi,
    I think there could be two possible reason. wrong media or systemboard is changed.
    did you create any recovery media yourself or you ordered the recovery media from hp? also, was there any systemboard replacement done before?
    media created on some other computer (same model) may not work on your computer.
    you can order the media from hp.com here.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00810334
    also once systemboard is replaced you need to get the configuration settings done for BIOS(only HP can do it).
    hope it helps

  • The "Awesome Bar" is not working. It does not recall anything from the Bookmarks

    Just updated to new Firefox. In the past, when I would start to type a site in the address bar firefox would complete it as it was already in my bookmarks. But now it does not do anything. It just sits there waiting for me to complete the address. I could start to type Netf and it automatically finish Netflix.com
    Why is this happening. Also, for the first couple days of the new version I had to go back into Tools, Options and reset things at least 3 or 4 times before they would finally stay the way I wanted them.
    I would tell it Never Remember History and after while I would look and it would say, Remember History. I wanted a Blank Start page, and it kept changing it. It's okay now but the Awesome Bar is not working at all.

    Do your bookmarks show up in the auto-suggest drop-down list?
    ''If not:'' Under Options > Privacy, in the bottom section, does it still show that Firefox should suggest Bookmarks in the Location bar?
    If auto-suggest works but the autofill isn't happening, you could double-check that it has not been disabled here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''autof''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) If the '''browser.urlbar.autoFill''' preference is bold and "user set" to false, double-click it to switch its value back to the default value of true. That should work in new tabs.
    It's it already true, hmm, I wonder whether this is a private browsing issue? (I didn't test with automatic private browsing.)

    Hi Nealeh
    Thanks i think I got it working of a fashion.
    Except the replace colour, does not seem to end up with the colour I picked using the picker tool. Its as though it hads not replaced the colour but blended in the desired colour with the old incorrect colour!
    Buy trial and error picking not the right colour but close - which when mixed with the existing colour is close.
    Sorry I can't post the pictures as the Lingerie Mfg, has me under non disclosure.
    The scenario is:-  say a blonded mainly tanned model a high cut [at the hips] corsette style basque, with an ultra low bra line.
    Our dear model, has just come back from St Barts with a fabulous Tan, and equally striking bold Tan lines!.
    So we have great tanned legs, then the 'porcelain white band' where her swimsuit was.
    Likewise we have a tanned face, and arms, shoulders etc and a great tan on the top of the cleavage, then it stops, white band to the top of the ultralow cut bra line of the basque.
    She must have lived in like the most conservative bikini on the planet [50's style], for 2 weeks!
    Had she had a normal skimpy bikini on, no problem!
    If i don't solve it, she will get fired!
    Not a lack of interest in your post, but I was out, and tried to log in to this site; which I could do, on my iPad Air / 5 [whatever its the new one]. And tried to 'sign in' - but it just hung at the
    "Join Adobe Community" adobe sign in splash screen! with he little whell spinning around continuously!!!
    I have Safari on this iPad. Guess that is all it runs.
    So technology is not my friend today!

  • IPhone 4 does not detect anything on Bluetooth

    My iPhone 4 has appearantly a glitch in hardware...??? I turn on bluetooth and it can search for devices till the battery runs out and that's it. I don't think that this is a software error, as there are plenty of iP4's amongst my friends who don't experience this error with the same iOS version as I have.
    ANything I can do about it, or I just have to return it to my seller and ask for repairs?
    Tnx
    Lauris

    I can't pair it with anything, cause it just does not detect anything. Try to imagine... You go to settings--->bluetooth--->turn it ON and that is it! It starts the search and never finishes... The phone can search till the battery dies, but nothing. And I know that a friends iPhone can connect ot my cars bluetooth, but mine does not even find it. Finds nothing... NO apple gadgets, no other gadgets... It would be a success if it would find something and then the pairing would be a different issues, but if the search for a device never stops (not even to show that the iPhone can't find anything)...then I'm confused... and dissapointed..
