First bug in Imovie Mavericks
Vluggie on October 23, 2013 #
Today the new Imovie updated. Looks better and anything after searching and trying, it all seems to work well.
What strikes me is that there are no moving globes are available on "Maps and Skins" in the material library. In manual states that this is supposed to be there, but this is not the case.
A globe from an old project recognizes the new Imovie it so I can edit it.
Like to hear if people have this same problem and how can I report this to Apple?

Think it is a language issue. I am using a dutch version of imovie where in the content libary only backrounds are available and NOT the globes / maps.

Warning: 5.1 sound from camcorders: bug in iMovie '08

In another thread there is a eror reported.
The 5.1 sound from the Pana SD1 is not well down mixed to stereo by iMovie '08.
Resulting a strong right and weak left channel.
The problem is fully reported and documented to Apple and in this other thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5367099#5367099
Earlier I reported the 5.1 sound downmix to stereo bug in iMovie.
At the moment I am testing two Sony camcorders: HDR-SR7E en HDR-CX6EK. The first is officially supported by Apple (iMovie '08 camcorder list) and the other is the latest memory card camcorder by Sony.
Both camcorders have 5.1 sound on board and YES these camcorders cause the same problem in iMovie '08.
There definitely is a 5.1 stereo downmix bug in iMovie '08.
I do hope Apple can and will fix this.

I can hardly imagine, how you can record real surround sound wihtout a bunch of mic on location but just with a single located, small spot, tiny device (=camcorder), but marketing of those devices proof me wrong..
don't forget to report direct to Apple (this is just the user board here....):

When I first turned on iMovie all videos from iPhoto automatically were found. Now I have more videos on iphoto, how do I get iMovie to find the new ones?

Hi jt - Alex was actually referring to video clips in iPhoto not appearing in the item "iPhoto Videos" in the Events Library in iMovie - thanks for your post though (the 2 words are very similar).

It took me some time to spot the link to where the instruction manuals were for imovie, take a look it might help you and any other users (including myself) in using the software.
Here's the link http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/imovie/

Since last Sunday (October 6, 2013) I couldn't open the new downloaded applications. I saw it under app store, purchased section but couldn't open it. I am on ios7 now, is there some bugs regarding app store?

If you are completely confident that you didn't hide it, then you purchased those with different apple id. If you completely confident that you purchases with same apple id then you have hidden it. One of the other or you are speaking about a miracle. While miracles are possible they are not very likely. Remember

I have iMovie 8.0.6 and an iPhone 4S. I took hours of videos on vacation (Australia and New Zealand) and want to make a movie. I've imported the first batch into iMovie and started the project. I just realized that I shot both horizontally and vertically and when I preview (on full-screen) what I've combined, first it's wide-screen, then it's tall, narrow with wide black sides.
The film looks choppy, no flow, since it alternates horizontally and vertically.
I can import the vertical clips two ways: "Full-Original Size", or "Large 960x540." But the vertical clips have very short, fat people.
This didn't happen with my Flip HD; the movies are smooth and terrific. My heart is breaking.....please, how can I make the videos match?

Yes, I'd like to use all the video I shot, put it together with music, titles, etc. and make it consistant. when it goes from full screen to this vertical, narrow clip, it's very awkward.....and it's so narrow, it's hard to see what I'm looking at; my eyes don't make the adjustment quickly.

Cannot update file created with iMovie Mavericks on YouTube. File format is unknown

I have just upgraded to iMovie Mavericks. I created a new movie and I am trying to upload it on YT. The direct upload using the share button in iMovie does not work (file format is not recognised). I then saved the file on the folder movies and tried to upload it on YT in this way, but again the format of the file is unknown and cannot be uploaded/played. Help please!!

Will your videos play in Quicktime 10 (the version in Mavericks)? If yes, but after automatic conversion I think you can save the converted file and this will most likely be importable into iMovie.
If not there are lots of free and paid conversion apps. I use the free MediaConverter a lot (http://media-converter.sourceforge.net)
The free app VideoSpec (http://videospec.free.fr/english/) will show you the detailed format of your videos
Its a matter of trying out various formats until you find one that works - Unfortunately I have not seen a clear list of formats that are supported by iMovie 10.

HT3529 How can I retrieve a train of text messages back to October 1, 2013, that I deleted?

How can I retrieve a train of text messages back to October 1, 2013, that I have deleted?

For text messages that were transmitted through your cellular connection, you must contact your wireless carrier. For iMessage texts that you have deleted, your decision at that time was final.

Didn't Apple say that those who bought a new iDevice after October 1, 2013 could also get iWork and iLife for free on Mac?

I thought I read that anyone who bought a new iDevice on or after Oct. 1, 2014 could get the iLife and iWork apps for free on their iDevice and the same Mac applications would be free for any Mac with the same iCloud account. I purchased an iPad Air in January and got those apps for free on it, but when I bought a used Mac locally I can't get any of those apps for free? If it is possible to get those iLife and iWork apps on my Mac that way please tell me.

Didn't Apple say that those who bought a new iDevice after October 1, 2013 could also get iWork and iLife for free on Mac?
No, they said if you bought a new iOS device on or after September 1, 2013, the iOS versions would be free. And if you purchased a new Mac on or after October 1, 2013, the Mac OS versions would be free. The Mac & iOS iWork & iLife apps are separate applications for two different operating systems. Unless you purchased a new Mac after October 1, 2013, you will have to purchase them for your used Mac.

I cannot connect to my game center account October 31, 2013. It's said that "Could not connect to game center server"... is the Server down? could it be fixed quickly

I cannot connect to my game center account October 31, 2013. It's said that "Could not connect to game center server"... is the Server down? could it be fixed quickly I play Clash of Clan and I really upset when this problem happen @@!

This happened to me as well. **Warning: The following steps will remove all network passwords from your phone and you will have to re-input them. Unfortunately, this is unavoidable**
To resolve, I went to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings and accept the Reset Network Settings option.
Afterwards, I was able to log into the Game Center without a problem.

Photo caching bug in iMovie 11

I ran into this today first time I have seen it. Wrong photo being displayed in Timeline. http://uimfaq.us/a5q3qA
Looks like iMovie will retain the last picture used even if you had deleted the previous project. Clearing the caches does fix it.
I will report this to Apple.

Hi Daniel,
I'm not enabled to re-enact your bug ...
Your screen-grab tells me:
• you're using a template (which, btw?)
• you did convert it into a 'Project'
• you swapped windows to have a timeline
• you tried to drag a Photo into timeline ... kaboom ...
but not here ... not a single zic ...
plus, what caches?
Photos of a Project are stored in that weird 1fps-Still Images.mov inside that specific project. choosing a New Projects creates a new one - so, no 'cache', imho ( ? ) .
Or do you duplicate an existing Project to create a version B ?
please more info about your workflow in 'nano steps' , I'd like to understand your observation (have seen your video, that is obvious) ...

Heavy bug in iMovie '09?

Hey everybody!
Today, I've received my iLife '09 package. The first thing I wanted to check out was iMovie '09. During my tests, I think I've found a big bug. It would be nice, if someone could verify this.
1. Create a new project (I did it on an external hard drive, connected through USB)
2. Click the camera button, switch to manual and press the Import button and create a new event on the external hard drive and capture (a few seconds will suffice).
3. Hit stop if you haven't done so already, and click finish. Now you should see your clip just the way you expected it.
4. Now delete the whole clip and do a right click on the event, and tell iMovie to trash the rejected files.
5. Finally, trash them from the real trash.
6. Go back to iMovie and click again the camera button. Make sure you're still on manual and click import. Now select the already existing event, and go ahead capturing. Again, a few seconds will suffice.
7. Click stop and finish. Now you may notice your clip is grayed and has a little yellow exclamation mark at the left bottom. You may also experience bad video and bad audio.
Anyone able to reproduce this? I initially thought it was my hardware, but if I select a new event to capture, it works just fine. Or if I delete the event and create a new one with the same name, no problem.
My hardware used in the tests:
Camera: Sony HandyCam Vision CCD-TRV27E PAL (analogue)
Adapter: Canopus ADVC 110
External Hard Drive: WD My Book Studio Edition 1TB

I'm curious, I'll give your steps a try!
Believe what you have found is still a "bug" and "cleaning house" manually is merely a "workaround."
What media format does your camcorder record to, is it Hi8?
HC3 listed is a MiniDV/HDV camcorder. Also have a TRV520 which is Hi8/Digital-8.
What happens if on Step #6, you create a new Event instead of reusing the old event?.. How about following all your steps but importing to the Boot Drive instead of the External Drive?
Creating a new event or accessing a different Event not modified by a "destructive" deletion does not set up a conflict between the physical contents of the Event, what the application still thinks is in the Event based on its initialization scan, and the importation of a new file having the same name as the now non-existent file you just deleted.

Bug report iMovie '11 Title, Picture, Transitions Location Duration bug

In iMovie '11 version 9.0.1 (1095) there is a very annoying bug if you use Norwegian or Dutch. I presume in other languages as well, but in English I can't repeat the bug.
Set System Preferences > Language & Text to Nederlands or something else (not English).
In iMovie, add a Title, try to change Duration in the inspector to something between 10 and 59 seconds. The clip will change to 9:58 seconds.
I don't know how to do bug reports, so there you go. My parents and parents in law (south of 70) would love to see this fixed. I am very proud they even use this stuff, I don't see them relearn their patiently acquired skills in English.

In iMovie, if you click iMovie/Provide Feedback, you can send your comments and bug report to Apple.
This is a user to user forum, so they may or may not see it here. I would not count on it.
I think it is great that your parents are making movies.

Bug in iMovie?

I was going to edit a new movie in iMovie 11.
The new versin has a new interface, and I will get used to that, I suppose.
Only problem is I´m not able to manually edit the "Ken Burns-effect" in the new version. It seems to be automatically only...?
Is this a problem for others?

… The point 5 in the Manual tell me to crop or resize, but none of the crop-funtions works in the new version...
It does work here, so if the error can not be restablished, it's no 'bug'.-
You're in your Project?
What is your clip - a still or a selection of a video clip in the Event browser?
What is teh source of your clip?
How long is that clip in your Project?

Major "BUG" in Imovie 9 - Audio Sync Problem on Export !

Well I'm a hard-core Apple user from day one, but unfortunately today I'm not to proud about the latest version of Imovie 9.
It seems there has been a "MAJOR audio sync problem on export" in Imovie 9, since July 2009. Apple knows about this bug for a long time now, but didn't release any bugfix yet!
Here's what it's all about:
It seems if you use the (custom /manual) speed-adjustments and not the preset slider speeds, you will experience (after exporting your movie) annoying bursts of audio from clips that had been set to mude. The strange thing is that you will only experience this audio-bug after exporting, you will NOT experience it in the project playback mode!
Here's what you can do:
Find ALL the clips in your Project that are Speed Adjusted.
Instead of using a "Custom Speed" percentage, use any of the "Preset Speeds"
Preset Speeds on the Slider = 12.5%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 200%, 400%, 800%
Then, export your project as usual.
No more sync issues.
Really hope That Apple will come up with a real BUGFIX soon.
It's a shame that a major bug in a otherwise GREAT PRODUCT, hasen't been fixed yet!
What's wrong with Apple?...this is not one of their finest hours.
Still A BIG fan from Imovie HD,...I'll chance to Imovie 9 when the bugs are finaly fixed!

This is TERRIBLE! I have spent so much time working on this project, and I really don't want to adjust the speed settings to the preset levels, BECAUSE I need to motion of the video to match certain musical points. I can't re-film my video, and I needed this project done TODAY. I made a music video with some kids at summer camp, and today is the last day- the day we were supposed to all watch it together, and now, I've got NOTHING!!!! (Because I can't export it without all those glitches!)
I am MAJORLY DISAPPOINTED on this one. I've made movies in windows movie maker before, and purposely used imovie, because you know, everything on macs is supposed to be better. Well, I guess I was wrong.
