Deleted/rejecterd clips not showing up in trash

Ok now I understand that iMovie trash in acutally finder trash. But I do not see the clips I have been deleting in there. they are gone from the events display screen in imovie but they are not in trash. Also the space is not decreasing on HD. Does anyone have an idea of where these deleted clips are going? It is certainly not the trash can at this point. Thanks

If you open the the associated Events Folder (where the files are physically stored on your HD) and the Trash Can folder in the Finder and then select the "Move Rejected Clips to Trash" iMovie menu option, you can watch iMovie re-write the data files followed by the clip files disappearing from the Finder and paired "Temporary" folders appear in the Trash Can folder. If you then open the "Temporary" folders in the Trash Can folder, you will find the actual clip files, the associated thumbnails, etc. Therefore, if you don't see any files in your trash can, you must have emptied the trash can at some point or possibly looked in it before iMovie had finished re-writing the data and moved the resulting files -- a process which can take some time to do.
ADDED: Oops! Looks like you figured it out while I was writing....

  • When I delete emails , they just get deleted and do not get moved to trash

    When I delete an email , it just gets deleted and does not get moved to trash. Its pretty frustrating as I regularly hit the delete by mistake and I lose the email because it just does not get moved to trash .I have checked the preference to find some setting that might cause this ( like delete trash immediately) in mail preferences to no avail. I also have ran file system check and cleaned and repaired the Mac-HD in hope of solving the problem to no avail. This has been happening only for a few days. The funny thing is , I also noticed that a folder I was trying to copy from My main HD to a secondary one ( not in mail but just on the computer), suddenly disappeared and I could not locate it . Am I going crazy? Someone please help.

    Hi hadjibaba. You’re welcome.
    Report the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/ account folder in the Finder.
    In order to post the exact file names and avoid typing mistakes, proceed as follows. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/. With that folder open, if you’re looking at it in View > as List mode, first collapse any expanded folders so that the Finder only shows the files and folders at the first level. Now, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post.
    BTW, if you’re running Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther), as your profile indicates, it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Mac OS X 10.3 & earlier forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

  • My deleted files do not go into the Trash Folder

    Deleted emails do not go into the Trash Folder even though my configurations are correct and I have selected Trash Folder for my deleted files. Is something wrong with TB? This just started happening recently.
    Also the auto-fill is not working correctly. When I start to type an email addr in Compose, non-related email addrs appear. I know that TB uses the 'within' range as opposed to 'starts with' but that still does not explain my problem. If I enter 'h' into the To: field, email addresses that do not contain the letter h anywhere (first name, last name, email addr, etc.) appear.
    Please help.

  • Why are my deleted imovie events not showing up in mac trash?

    I dleted an event in imovie on my macbook pro, it dissappeared, but I can't for the life of me find it in my mac trash.

    No solution to offer, but I can say that you are not alone. I am having the same exact problem.
    I installed "Photos" around April 8. "My Photo Stream" shows up in the sidebar containing pictures up through April 6 - nothing later. Photos taken with my iPhone since then do not show up.
    My iPhone and iPad both have Photostream on and working. Photos taken with either show up almost immediately on both devices. It is only "Photos" on the desktop machine which is broken. Like you, I have tried turning Photostream on/off, restarted both desktop machine and phone. Nothing.  "Photos" photo stream is stuck in time at April 6.

  • Clips not showing up in project

    I recently upgrade to FCE 2. I like the "capture now" option when capturing. The only problem is when i import clips they do not show up in the browser after capturing. They are imported into the proper scratch folder but i have to import them into the project for them to be in the browser. How can i get the clips to immediatley show up in the browser.
    Thank You in advance

    Make sure you're using v2.0.3. Trash your preferences and make sure you only have one project open at a time, and the browser is the active window, when you open the capture window.

  • Clips not showing up

    I have built movies in iMovie06 that work great. Just got iMovie08
    but when I try to open movies already created in iMovie06 the only thing
    that shows up are titles. No quicktimes or clips.
    Any idea why they are not showing up?

    Make sure you're using v2.0.3. Trash your preferences and make sure you only have one project open at a time, and the browser is the active window, when you open the capture window.

  • Selecting Clips, adding keyword, selected clip not showing up in keyword collection

    I am having issues while editing a soccer game for a highlight reel.  I have done this many times without issue, but with one project, for certain keyword selections, it is not showing up.  I am selecting a clip from a longer piece of game footage, then hitting command-k to open the keyword collection shortcut interface.  I'm inputting the keyword into it and hitting return.  It makes the sound like the clip has been marked as a key word, but when I go into the keyword collection in the event history, the clip is not showing up.  Again, this is only occuring in one project and hasn't been an issue in the 10 other similar projects I've done.  Any thoughts?  Is there any way to fix this recoding the entire game? Thanks.

    There shouldn't be any sound, just the animation and the blue bar. Are you getting that? Make sure there is nothing in the search field in the browser. Try trashing prefs.

  • Clips not showing up on NTSC monitor when editing

    I have a Sony DSR-11 and Sony NTSC monitor connected to my computer.The clips are not showing up on the monitor when I am editing. They show up when I am in Log and Capture. Is there anything I can do to get this to work again?
    Thanks

    Start with the basics.

  • Clips not showing up in iMovieHD

    Brand new to iMovie...I'm ding everything correctly but clips are not showing up in either place...movie is playing on camera but not on iMovie screen. I do get some minutes of the beginning of the movie on screen(iMovie) but then it goes Blue and says 'Camera is playing'. At end of movie I was expecting iMovie to fill-in all the clips.
    Does it fill in clips as it's played? I want the whole movie captured. All connections are correct. Even the Magic Movie does not capture the clips...cannot understand it. Anyone have any tips on getting this movie made?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a similar problem...but I don't get the first few minutes of video. On my iMac screen, I get that the camera is recognized and blue screen. It tells me onscreen when I am "playing" or "seeking forward" etc., but when I try to "import" though, the "import" button no longer works (it worked 1/2 hour before this). I've plugged and unplugged the firewire cords, turned off the camera, checked the tape, etc. To me, it seems to be a software issue. I just tried it on our Intel Macbook Pro and I have no problem importing the video.
    The problem seemed to happen after I imported about 8 minutes of video this morning and then when I stopped it gave me a message I've never seen before (something about "organizing video clips") which like the "letterboxing" message seemed to take forever. Under a time crunch, I attempted to quit iMovie during this organizing process. It didn't happen right away, so I went on to do something else. When I returned, it gave me the options of quitting, saving or canceling. I opted to cancel and continue to import. At that point, however, the import button no longer worked.
    I work at a university, so I don't have the install disks myself and wonder if anyone else has had this problem and been able to work around it without reinstalling the software. (I can contact our IT people, but it's a real pain and very time consuming to get them here to reinstall...plus, they are not "Mac people" so they like to give me a lot of c.r.a.p. about how PCs don't have this or that issue...sigh).
    Thanks!

  • I can't delete photos from my iPhone the delete sign does not show

    If the photos came from computer, you have to de-select on computer then do a sync to delete photos from iPhone.

  • Can't delete TV episode, not showing in itunes

    A TV episode failed to complete downloading and is stuck in the TV episode list and I can't delete it. It's not showing up in itunes either to delete it from there. Also, I can't retry downloading it because it says "Download error. Tap to continue" or whatever and when I tap it it just hangs at preparing to download. It's been that way for weeks. Is there anyway to manually delete it from the phone itself?

    Same issue.  The error says not enough space for me -- go to settings to alter. Takes me to storage -- and the video is not listed as using storage!
    I have 8 episodes stuck there -- some even play -- but none will swipe to delete.  To test I did swipe to delete a video podcast -- no problem.  Just my TV Shows seem to be permanent fixtures.
    Connected to the computer to see what ITunes showed as installed TV Shows on the device -- nothing there...!!!

  • Imported clips not showing up in Event

    I have version 10.0.5 and imported video clips from my iPhone.  The file size shows 9.5GB yet no clips are showing up.  They were in the Event prior to my quitting iMovie but when I reopened it shows Empty.  Help?

    I think I ought to mention that I also have a new laptop and have experienced file sharing permission issues with some applications. Might this be part of the problem? (Although everything seems to be properly owned!)

  • After effects color corrected clip not showing correctly in Premiere

    Hello all,
    I have recently made a short film with a few effects in Premiere and After effects CS4.  I have used the Dynamic Link to accomplish this.  I have added color correction with Color Finesse in After effects.  The problem is I some of the color correction is not showing up in Premiere once it has finished.  Some of them are adjustment layers and some are not and the ones that are showing up are diverse like that as well.  I have rendered the footage and rendered the premiere time line, it fixes it at first but won't build a DVD the right way then the fixes just seem to disappear when scrolling through the timeline.
    Is anyone else haveing this problem?
    Do you think it's something wrong that an update will fix?
    Maybe a new codec?
