Copy more than one clip at a time from iPhoto to iMovie?? Please help!

Is it possible to copy more than one clip at a time from iPhoto to iMovie? I can't find a way to select/copy more than one.

OK you can leave them in iPhoto and access them from the iMovie Event for iPhoto.
If you prefer to move them to a regular iMovie Event, you can do the following.
1) right-click on one of the iPhoto clips and select "Reveal in Finder". This will open a finder window showing the clips in the iPhoto Library.
2) In a different Finder window, create a folder to hold your event in iMovie. If you are using an internal drive, create a folder using your desired Event Name under the Movies/iMovie Events Folder.
Note: If you are using an external drive, create a Folder called iMovie Events at the top level of the external drive. Then create the (Event Name) folder under this. The external drive must be formatted as MacOS Extended (journaled) for this to work.
3) Select all the clips in the iPhoto finder window that are part of this event and Move them to the Movies/iMovie Event/(Event Name) folder.
4) After you have done this for all the Events, open iMovie and let it generate thumbnails. This may take a while.

  • How do you order more than one project at a time from iPhoto?

    Ordering different projects at the same time from iPhoto to save shipping costs

    This is why I no longer order books from iPhoto. I use Picaboo and Blurb. It is ridiculous that you can't create a number of projects and place them in a cart for checkout to save on shipping. I thought Apple was supposed to be leading the pack but in this instance they are sorely lagging behind. How difficult would it be for them to create a cart, upload your projects and purchase them at once. Do they really need to stick it to us for more shipping costs?

    So now that you have repeated the same thing three times that doesn't make things any clearer at all.
    You are copying files from where to where?
    How are you attempting to copy files, software or click and drag?
    Any other detail would be helpful.

    Hi,
    You can use the Ctrl or Shift modifier keys to select multiple form items. Ctrl+click toggles the selected state of the item. Shift+click selects a range of form items.

    How can I order more than one picture at a time in iphoto?

    It's also wise to crop the photos to the print size you're ordering so you have control over what portion of the image gets printed.  Otherwise, the image will be scaled so the smaller dimension fills the paper cropping off some of the oither dimension.

    How do I delete more than one email at a time from my i phone 5C

    With your Mail app open and the listing of the messages, tap Edit at the top right.  Then check each circle on the left side of the messages to delete.  When you have checked those to delete, tap Trash at the lower right.
    Next tap Mailboxes upper left, under accounts select the account, then for the account tap Trash.  Select Edit upper right, and at the bottom, Delete All, and confirm Delete All and all will be removed at one time.

  • Deleting more than one file at a time from Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra 4

    Is there a way to delete more than one file at a time from Zen Xtra? Actually, I'd like to delete most of the 800+ files and the only way I've found is to do them one at a time..! Help!

    Either use finder to drag and drop those tracks onto
    "Library" in iTunes' left "Source" column or from
    iTunes Menu Files use "Add to Library ..." then
    navigate to a folder that keep a yoru tracks and
    select that folder.
    This did it! I was doing an "import" which would only let me do one song at a time. But the "add to library" and the drag and drop both worked. Thanks!!!

    Is it possible to configure an LOV-based text field so more than one value at a time can be chosen from the drop-down LOV list? This is a user requirement for specifying multiple values in an SQL WHERE clause.

  • Problem trying to email more than one image at a time from LR3

    Hi.  I have set up the export presets for 'Email and Attach' carefully following the instructions. If I select more than one photo to send only one appears as an attachment. I am using OUTLOOK. How do I solve this problem?

    What do you mean by "Email and Attach" ? There is no such thing as "Attach" in the LR Export dialog. At least not in my version of LR. You export photos for e-mail to a certain folder or to your desktop and then attach them manually to your e-mail.

  • Color correcting more than one clip at a time

    Perhaps I am missing something very elementary here... but here is my situation. I have three camera angles, each of the same concert. They are synced and ready to go, each on a separate track. Each needs color correction. I have found the color correction for each that I want. Before I slice up my clips I can very easily color correct each line separately, as the color correction applies to the whole clip. However, this takes about an hour to render because it is so much material. But since I am slicing up each track anyway to form a composite track, wouldn't it make more sense for me to slice up each track as I see fit, delete the unwanted footage, and then color correct each line before I drag them all into one composite track? That way, the color correction would just be applied to the clips that I am using, presumably taking about 1/3 the time to render. Know what I mean? So here is the question: can I select all of the clips on one line and THEN color correct just those? Or do I have to select each little clip and type in the boatload of numbers into the numeric color correction. Or is there another way all together. (Like, is there a way to SAVE the color correction values that I want and call them like "camera one" "camera two" etc... and then just apply those settings to the clips I want?)
    With my sound editing program I have presets for this concert. I am able to take each piece, open it up and apply the same equalization, amplification, reverb, etc. that I did for all of the others, thus making them all sound the same. I'm sure FCE has this option for video, doesn't it?
    I have 10 more pieces to do and by far this was the most time consuming part of the job. So any help would be most appreciated!
    Much thanks!

    Apply the color correction to one clip and adjust as needed. Copy the clip. Select all other clips that you want to apply the filter with those settings to. Right-click on one and select Paste Attributes/Filters.

  • Selecting more than one clip at a time?

    I can't seem to shift-click multiple clips to add the same transition between them. Sure I can do it one at a time, but I've got 185 photos and I want to edit the transitions. iMovie HD would let me click a clip and then ctrl-click to select similar. This feature is absolutely essential for editing slideshows. Am I missing something or is this not possible?
    And has anyone figured out how to make a clip last less than one second?

    I would like to be able to do this, as well. It seems BASIC to be able to select ALL clips/photos. HOW???

  • View more than one sheet at a time from the same file?

    I'm trying to view two different sheets at the same time from one file. This was possible in excel by opening a "new" window. Does anyone know how to do this in numbers?
    Thanks for the help,

    You know what: Happily, _*Numbers is definitively not a clone of Excel*_ !
    It's not forced to duplicate every features of this program !
    We may see every tables of a given sheet
    but we can't see tables of two sheets simultaneously.
    This feature is very important because it's linked to
    the one which allow us to have different orientation for different sheets.

  • Importing more than one file at a time from a network location

    I can import a song at a time from my old networked location, but I have hundreds of songs to import. I can't seem to find out how to do this at least an album at a time. When importing from a CD it'll do the whole cd. I would like to import the whole group the same way I was able to import a whole folder of photos into Iphoto. Can anyone tell me how to do this?
