Converting old imovies for ipad

Hello- is there a way to share or export old imovies in a format that looks better on my new iPad? I have access to the old and new versions of iMovie (although I haven't really had time to learn the new version yet!) I know how to convert and share them to my iPod touch, but of course when I sync my movies through iTunes to my iPad, the resolution is disappointing- any tips you can share would be helpful

Just tried Handbrake on one of my imovies- I had to Share it to full quality first, then convert it, but it looks good-just what I was trying to do! I'll also try skydiver's tip too. Now I have my free time cut out for me converting my family imovies, but with the iPad, I can have them with me all the time!

When using imovie for Ipad, how can I fast forward a project to cut the length down?

When using imovie for Ipad, how can I fast forward a project to cut the length down to fit under the 15 minutes required for Youtube? My current project is 23 minutes, and need to cut it down below 15 minutes. I was hoping to speed up the video. The content would actually be better viewed in at a faster speed anyhow.

Jon,
It sounds like you did, just as you should, Save_As and Delete everything that is unwanted. If you did the Deletion from the Timeline, there should be nothing from the old Project, that should be included. A DVD is Transcoded and burned from the Timeline. If the Assets are not there, they will not included in the DVD, even if you did not Delete anything from the Project Panel.
Tell us about the Clips now on your Timeline. Also, can you check the Timeline, by hitting the \ (Backslash key), and looking near the end of the Timeline. Do you have any "orphans" out there? Check all Video Tracks, even if you have to scroll to see them all. Does the Duration of the Timeline (viewed in the Program Monitor) match what you think that it should? If not, then you most likely have orphans, that you missed Deleteing.
Good luck,
Hunt

IMovie for iPad 2 - importing and exporting

Hi all,
I am a brand new iPad 2 user and am looking to edit my home videos using the iMovie iPad app.
After a bit of research it seems there is a bit of discussion on the ability to add your own video files for iMovie to recognise the format for editing.
I was just wondering if anyone with recent experience can share if it is possible to do this method without a whole heap of converting and transferring.
Here are a couple of my other related questions:
1. Import - how do you import video from a digital camera or video camera to your iPad?
2. Export - once in iTunes how do I get it on my iMac for playback and sharing? i.e. create DVD, add to USB stick/flash drive.
3. Export - what video file format does iMovie on the iPad 2 export to?
4. Export - can I export the iMovie project file from the iPad 2 and then continue to work on it using my iMac?
Many thanks

1 - Imovie for iPad is made to work with video shot with an IOS device. You would have to make sure it's compatible
2 - Export the movie to your camera roll. Connect to computer and import just like you would from any camera.
3 - it exports an MOV file, h.264 encoding (720P)
4 - Yes you can export a project and continue to work on it on the Mac, make sure you have the latest version.

10.2 crashes when I try to convert old libraries for use in the new software. Is there a workaround for this? Or will i have to continue using the previous version to complete older projects?

Final Cut Pro X 10.2 crashes when I try to convert old libraries for use in the new software. Is there a workaround for this? Or will I have to continue using the previous version to complete older projects? the only foreseeable solution is to begin any new projects on 10.2 or importing footage on 10.2 and starting form scratch--which is something i definitely don't want to do or have time to do. ANY advice, thoughts, or opinions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Running 10.10.3 // MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) // 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 // 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Exactly the same problem with me.
Some other threads advice to remove fonts, clean the caches, remove add ins but nothing works consistenty, for some it looks like it works, for me it failed.
What I did not try yet, was to move the Render files out of the malicious library to trash.

What is the best way to get a tune created in GB for iPad into iMovie for iPad?

What is the best way to get a tune created in GB for iPad into iMovie for iPad?

Haven't done it myself, but seems like the correct workflow would be:
From GarageBand (iOS), My Songs -> select song -> Send to iTunes
From iMovie HD (iOS), My Project -> Insert Media -> select by song name
I'm not sure if GB creates its own playlist for tagging exported songs in your iTunes library so selecting by name would be the next-best method.
Have you tried this?

Is there a list of Microsoft Fonts that will work with Pages?
Are you actually seeing a noticeable difference in the fonts after conversion? While there are some difference between those fonts, they are very subtle differences and in all likelihood will not really change the look of the document.

Why does iMovie for iPad shorten the background song length after adding a photo?

Why does iMovie for iPad shorten the background song length after adding a photo?
I created a project a few months ago, and iMovie worked as it always had. I would create a project, add a background song, then add photos to fill up the song.
When I created a project today, I added the background song (4m9s), then added a single photo, and the background song length was shortened to 6 seconds. I have never seen the app work this way. I know I can extend the photo to the length of the background song, but it used to be so much easier to add photos and sync them with the music as I desi
I'm using iPad2 with iMovie v1.4.1.
Thoughts?

When I've added photos to a project they are added to a default time to appear. Honestly I've never looked at the time but 6 seconds sounds close. I'm guessing that since you added the photo after you add the music that its thinking you want the two to match in time length so it tunicates the music. Try adding the photo first then add the music. Good luck!

TS3719 iPad video import to iMovie for ipad

Reconnecting video in iMovie for iPad

I'm having trouble getting iMovie for iPad to reconnect video files.
Recently I edited a fairly large project in iMovie for iPad with video clips all taken from my iPhone 4. I synced the clips to the iPad by going through iTunes and transferring them as a photo Event. From there I was able to work with the media and finish the project, but somewhere along the line I re-synced the iPad with my MacBook, and the Event that contained the media I was working on was taken off the iPad. Obviously, when I re-opened iMovie I noticed this accident by all the little yellow triangles everywhere.
Since then I've tried everything I can think of to get iMovie to recognize the same clips I have since re-synced back into my photos library, but have been unsuccessful.
Any ideas what could be wrong? Or is it, once the media is disconnected the link is gone forever?
Here's the vague and relatively unhelpful quote from Apple's support page in dealing with this problem:
"Resolution
Missing Video clips
If your project contains a video clip that is stored in either of the following locations, moving the video clip from its location causes the yellow triangle to appear:
The Photos app. (A video clip would be stored here if it was synced to your iOS device from a computer).
The Camera Roll. (A video clip would be stored here if it was recorded using the Camera app, if it was imported via the Camera Connection Kit, or if it was moved to the Camera Roll from the iMovie Video Browser)."
You can see how if you move the clips from these locations, the media is disconnected... obviously. But there is apparently no way to reconnect that media, as you can do on the Mac version of iMovie. Actually, iMovie on the Mac will even locate missing media for you. Not the case here.

Yes the video I have imported appears in the photos app

Photos from DSLR import to 'photos' but pixelate in iMovie for iPad

Hi,
I just downloaded iMovie for iPad it seems really great.
I am trying to make my first project using pictures I have on my iPad that I imported using the camera connection kit from my Nikon D70s- the pictures are all fine and I've viewed them extensively in the photo viewer app, however when I import them and put them in the time line in iMovie they all get heavily pixelated as if the base file were only about 200x200... I have no idea what I am doing wrong?
Thanks!

That sounds like a real bug.
When I put photos from our 5D in to iMovie it has been through iPhoto.
And I can see it doesn't put the full resolution image into my album.
Im guessing that they haven't allowed it to take full resolution images; much like the limits of FCP and Motion with different video cards.
So it probably detects the large image and does a quick resize to a useable size.
That *****!
You should tell Apple:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/imovie_iOS.html
But have you tried opening the photos in PS Express or a photo editing program, and saving them out from there?
Then they should be smaller I assume,a nd should look fine in iMovie.
Crappy to have to work around, but better then not being able to use photos; or iPhoto round-tripping.

IMovie for iPad Queries !

With the keynote announcement yesterday, will the iMovie for iPad be a free update to those who have already purchased iMovie for iPhone (iPod touch 4 as well), being that i will be able to download it from the App Store once i have my iPad 2 and it will be a free download? or the app will be updated to a universal app, i ask because i wasn't sure if steve was meaning it would be a legitimate universal app, or universal in the sense that its on both iPhone and iPad but different apps for each! thanks!

We're all just your fellow users. Unless and until Apple makes a prerelease announcement (unlikely) or until the program is actually released, no one here is going to know the answer to that question.
