Exporting video made with imovie to anyplace

I know this must be simple, but after literally 5-6 hours trouble shooting, I must cry "Uncle" and see if anyone can help.
I created several simple videos in imovie. I've only been able to export 20 seconds of the first one. Somehow I managed to move 5 frames from the whole video to the top window. Those are the only frames I've been able to export. By now, I've probably made 10 videos trying to get what I want. I now have one that I'd really like to share. No matter what I highlight or how I share, I always get 20 seconds of that first video. What am I doing wrong? I know it must be something simple.
I don't know how to tell you which OS I've got, but I just got my Mac in October, if that helps.
I'd so appreciate someone helping me.

No matter what I highlight or how I share, I always get 20 seconds of that first video. What am I doing wrong?
Only projects (content in the "upper" window) can be shared/exported. If you've "made 10 videos" in the "lower" window, then they are nor "projects" and cannot be shared/exported.

  • Cannot Import Video made with iMovie for iPhone/iPod Touch

    I edited a video on my iPod touch using Apple's iMovie. The resulting .MOV file that iMovie creates will not import into iPhoto '11. While iMovie recognises the file just fine, iPhoto believes it is an unsupported file type. It's a .MOV for goodness sakes created with Apple's own hardware and program! Very strange. Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience.

    Hey there. In answer to your question, all other clips that appear in my camera roll are easily seen by iPhoto. It is only those movies that I have created with iMovie for iPhone that iPhoto does not recognize. It's really strange, considering the fact that it's just a .MOV file. As a result, I've had to download a program called 'DiskAid' that allows me to transfer the .MOV file directly to my computer from the iPod Touch.
    In answer to your question regarding whether or not iMovie for iPhone was worth downloading, I would have to say yes (assuming of course the import-to-iPhoto problem gets fixed). It's not a perfect program. My biggest complaint is that you have to import clips ONE at a time. There's no 'import all' option. This is really time consuming as you have to cycle through all the videos on your iPod or iPhone and manually tap each one and repeat. My dad likes to take a lot of 1-minute videos that then have to get spliced together and that can be really tedious with how this iMovie is currently set up. However, if you regularly think to add your clips to an existing project as you go along, things should be fine. It could do with a few more features and faster rendering times, but on the whole, it's a decent program. I have a feeling, though, that it was designed more for the YouTube generation who want to upload a five-minute video instead of people like my father and I who like to edit an hour or so and then eventually burn to a DVD. iMovie for the Mac still CERTAINLY has it's place.

  • How do i export a video made in imovie to youtube in the best quality possible?

    how do i export a video made in imovie to youtube in the best quality possible?

    You can only export in the same resolution that you imported.
    That is if you shot in 720p you cannot export in 1080p.
    Share > YouTube and select the highest resolution available.

    The camera connection kit can only be used to import photo/video files from a camera, SD card or USB flash drive. You can't import other types of files. You can't export any type of files using the camera connection kit.

  • How to import and edit a 3D video made with Sony HDR-TD10E camcorder, with .MVC file?

    How to import and edit a 3D video made with Sony HDR-TD10E camcorder, with .MVC file?
    I have PremierePro-CS5 installed.
    This stereo 3D camcorder (Sony HDR-TD10E), output an .MVC (MultiViewCoding) file, coded in H.264 format.
    This format is already compatible with Bluray3D stereoscopic format.
    1) But, how to edit the .MVC in Premiere?
    2) What plugin should I use (if exists) for PremiereProCS5?
    3) Cineform Neo3D, can manage the .MVC format? Can convert it to Cineform format file, for import it into Premiere?
    4) What software should I use to convert an .MVC video to an AVCHD H.264 file, and import it into PremierePro CS5 or CS5.5 for editing?
    Thanks!

    Sorry, I am Italian, it is very difficult for me to understand what he says!
    I can just read the english text, or follow the actions of a videotutorial!
    Thus my question is the same:
    -What software can do that?
    -Sony Vegas 10 do the Bluray3D authoring?
    -For MVC editing, should I wait for Adobe CS6? Or is it planned an update for CS5.5?

    How do I change a music in a movie I have made with Imovie, (it is in Theater now)??

    Hello olemus,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To add music to your iMovie project please follow the steps below.  Please note that you cannot do this in Theater, as you will need to be back in the Library portion of iMovie to do any editing.
    Add audio and music
    Take care,

  • Why I can't import o sync my videos made with my IPhone 4S?

    The iPhoto app (version 9.4.3) on my iMac (with OS X, version 10.8.4) no longer imports videos from my iPhone 5 (with the latest version of iOS).  This problem arose suddenly roughly one month ago.  Whenever I connect my iPhone to the iMac, all my photos are imported without a problem, but I get the following error message for all of the videos on the iPhone:
    I get the same error message when my children try to import videos from their 5th gen iPod touches.  The videos simply do not get imported and they remain on my iPhone anmd the iPod touches.  Strangely, I can send the videos via iMessage or email to other iPhones/iPod touches and they play with no problem on the recipient iDevices.  
    Again, this problem began suddenly roughly one month ago - I was able to import videos from my iPhone 5 without incident before it suddenly stopped working - and I am stumped at how to correct this problem.
    I do not have any issues with storage capacity on my iMac, so that possible explanation can be ruled out.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

  • .mov movie made with iMovie imported in iTunes

    I made (with iMovie) a movie and imported in iTunes where it works perfectly. But when I go to advanced to use "convert selection for ipod" I can't. I have only the line convert to mp3.....
    Any help? Maybe iTunes doesn't convert .mov files for iPod use?
    THANKS

    probably yes, but I'm not able to open the .mov file in imovies. I made it when I had imovies 04 than after upgrading to imovies 06, all the files look like quicktime files and I can't open it in imovies 06.... So, now I have only the .mov file. It works in quicktime and iTunes but not anymore in iMovie. Any idea?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a video made with two cameras, in two tracks. Sometimes only one camera is running (because they both turn off at certain clip lengths). I'm trying to cut them together using the multicamera window, but I get no audio from track 2. How can I get audio from track 2. (My kludge is to cut the original audio from track 2 and move it into track 1.)

    Good Grief!  Now that I know the answer, I can find it all over the place.  But before, I got so many google references that just told me it couldn't be done!  That made me think the answer must be obscure -- when it was really simple, and should have been obvious to me.
    The lesson seems to be: do more work looking around the panels and menus of the program itself before trying to look in "help" or "google".
    Thanks, again, Jerry, for your consideration.

  • I an trying to do video editing with iMovie 11  9.0.8, i have no sound. OS X Lion 10.7.5 is my operating system any suggestions Please.

    I am trying to do video editing with iMovie 11  9.0.8 .  I am running OS X Lion 10.7.5   I have no sound,any suggestions please.

    This seems to have fixed the issue: on your desktop, hold down the [OPT] key and click on "Go" in the menu bar; holding down the [OPT] click on Library, find Preferences, and then delete all the files that start with "com.apple.itunes.XXXX.plist" where the "XXX" is whatever other things may exist - as long as they end in "plist". From my experience, preference files are rebuilt by the system after the next restart, so you have very little worry of losing any important data; the worst that could happen )and NOT in this instance, but for other plist files) is that you may have to reset the application "preferences" again when you next start it up, to act or appear in a "preferred" customized way for you.
    Once you delete the .plist files, empty the Trash, and either log out or restart the computer. Once you're back up and operational, start iTunes and your iDevices should reappear in the sidebar (if that's open) and/or at the top of the screen (if that view is enabled).
    Hope that helps. It definitely fixed my problem!

  • Best solution in exporting GoPro footages with iMovie???

    This is my first time in using iMovie, and I have some doubts about the exporting step.
    Starting from GoPro footages made with a resolution of 1080p and a frame rate of 30fps, I created a video with iMovie.
    After finishing the project, the easier way to export the movie has been "Export movie" (no parameters to set).
    I'd like to know if a better result is possible to obtain using "Exporting using QuickTime...". If possible, how should I set the various parameters? Type of compression,....
    Many thanks!

    When I assembled the .mov files in iDVD I ended up with 4.7GB of material which iDVD flipped out on and crashed... Any suggestions for this dilemma?
    Not sure if your 4.7GB reference is for the source files or the resulting "muxed" MPEG2/PCM encoded content. In any case a single layer DVD is limited to 4.7 GBs of total content. To be safe, this usually means you are limited to 4.2 to 4.3 GB of encoded movie and/or slideshow content depending on how many and what type of menus you are creating created. Thus, if you are encoding for a single-layer DVD and your project encoded content exceeds the capacity of your DVD, then this would likely explain your problem.
    If your project size reference is for the source content being added to your iDVD project, then it is totally irrelevant and you need to concentrate on the total duration of your iDVD and the method of encoding instead of file size. Basically, for a single-layer DVD, only about 60 minutes content can be encoded using the "Best Performance" encode option, 90 minutes using the "High Quality" setting, or 2 hours in the "Professional Quality" encode mode. Thus, if your content duration exceeds the capacity of your encoding mode here, it would likely explain your problem.
    In either case, the solution would be to either burn to higher capacity optical media/higher capacity encoding mode or burn your content to multiple DVDs as individual projects at the current media capacity/encoding mode.

  • Keynote export and issues with iMovie import

    I told my PC workers I could do a movie for my job in 1 day. They said no way. And I could easily have done that BUT my MAC is FUBAR on file import from keynote to imovie...
    I have Keynote 08, imovie 08 and QT 7.6.4 and did a simple slide show in Keynote. I tried to export to mp4, H264, and jpeg into imovie and strangely enough....it occasionally works. Many times I cannot select the files to import because they are grayed out. I have tried many things and again it sometimes lets me import. However, after import I get the clips in the event, and they seem fine. But when I drag them into the project they do not play..they just show a frame or they default to the last clip of video and then skip (in the proper time) to the next video. It is like they are there but the video cannot be resolved. The keynote is just text with build in and out effects and simple transitions.
    If I go to Jpeg 2000 or DV (notDVCPAL) they imported OK but were very jagged and severe loss of font quality.
    I do not expect this in MAC products. I cannot understand why keynote has a menu setup to export to everything but iMovie....
    HELP!

    To be clear, the imported video seems to run in the event area. I drag it into the project and it LOOKS like it is OK. And if I drag the cursor over the play area it all appears OK. However, if I hit "play" by itself, as the movie plays it goes fine until it hits the imported keynote section, and here you see the very first frame..and that frame only or nothing....until the next raw video clip (which plays fine).
