  • How do I get video from my iPhone to iMovie? The videos download to iPhoto, but are not "available" in iMovie when I select iPhoto in event library.

    How do I get video from my iPhone to iMovie? The videos download to iPhoto, but are not "available" in iMovie when I select iPhoto in event library.

    I haven't launched iMovie in a while, and I've used iPhoto to import many videos from my iPhone's Camera Roll since the last time I launched and used iMovie.
    iMovie prompted me to create/update the thumbnails for my iPhoto videos, along with indicating no iPhoto videos will be available with iMovie until this is completed.
    Not sure how to do this manually, but this may be your problem.

  • Loading video from digi camera onto eMac

    I have a Casio Exilim digital camera. I plugged it into the USB and chose iPhote to run. So I imported all the pictures onto iPhoto but none of the video imported. How can I get the video from the camera onto my eMac? Thanks for the help!

    If you want to import videos from your digital camera frequently it might be an idea to upgrade to iLife '06 as iPhoto 6 supports this.
    Hope this helps.

  • Trying to work with sound from 2 cameras in multicam mode

    I recorded a wedding service with 2 cameras simultaneously from 2 angles. I captured the footage from both cameras and I would now like to use portions of the sound on camera 1 at some points and portions of camera 2 sound at other times. When I go into multi camera edit mode all the sound from both cameras is combined onto one sound track. I now do not have the option to mix between the 2 sound tracts. If I use the audio mixer before I cut the 2 cameras together, I loose that audio mix when when I go into multicamera mode because not only is the audio combined but it has been put into a new sequence and is in a different spot on the timeline. What can I do to solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

  • How to load pictures from a camera onto iPad mini with retina display

    Any tips on how to upload pictures from a camera onto my iPad mini with retina display (besides emailing them)? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

    If your camera pictures are stored on an SD Card you could purchase a lightning to SD Card adapter..

    You could also get the pix to your computer then copy them to an SD Card, if your computer sports an SD Card reader.
    Then use the lightning to SD Card reader..
    Lots of cameras use SD Card for storage, mine does..
    - cheers

  • I've connected my ipad to my TV via hdmi but cannot get sound. Is there a way to get sound from the TV?

    I'd like to get sound from the tv for my keynote presentations. Is there a way to do this via the hdmi connection? Or do I need to connect an 'audio-out? Thanks in advance for your help

    the hdmi should transfer both sound and picture

    Supports multi-channel digital audio output on compatible devices
    make sure your ipad is not muted
    make sure you volume is not all the way down
    make sure audio play out of the ipad when not connected to the hdmi adapter
    if you did and it don't work then it's likely an issue with the connetor
    or the tv or it's settings

  • I got a new laptop (Macbook Pro) and my IPhone is synced with my previous laptop. I've recorded dozens of very long (un-emailable) Voice Memos over the last few weeks and need to get them from my IPhone onto my new laptop. How do I do this?

    I got a new laptop (Macbook Pro) and my IPhone is synced with my previous laptop (which I no longer have). I've recorded dozens of very long (un-emailable) Voice Memos over the last few weeks and need to get them from my IPhone onto my new laptop.
    How do I do this?
    (when I click on the Sync option I get the warning: "Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing songs and playlists on the iPhone will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library." I fear that if I click this I will lose all of my important Voice Memos as well)

    Just to add to what ChrisJ4203 said.  You can sync them to your new computer using iTunes by selecting to Include Voice Memos on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  However, you still need to re-establish syncing with the new computer without iTunes erasing all the iTunes media from your phone (as the warning mentioned).
    If you copy your entire iTunes folder (not just your music) from your old computer to your new one, along with other non-iTunes media you may be syncing with iTunes (such as contacts, calendars and any photos synced to your phone from your old computer) by using migration assistant of following one of these methods: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527, then when you sync again with your new computer it will recognize your phone and sync as it did before.  You will still have to authorize the new computer for any Apple IDs used to purchase from the iTunes and App stores (in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer). 
    After that you can sync your voice memos to your computer as mentioned earlier.
    If you want to archive your voice memos before you do anything with iTunes, you can use a 3rd party program such as PhoneView or Touch Copy.

  • How can I get sound from tv or stereo when watching netflix on MacBook Air?

    Check with Netflix for their system requirements.

  • My USB CF Card reader is not mounting on my 2.5 GHZ Intel Core i5 iMac anymore. It was last week and worked fine to get pictures from my camera. Now it won't mount. I have tried another card reader and the same problem exists. Also tried different cards..

    Hi
    My USB CF (Compact Flash) Card reader is not mounting on my 2.5 GHZ Intel Core i5 iMac anymore.
    Last week it worked fine to get pictures from my camera but now it won't mount at all.
    I ejected it in the correct way rather than just disconnecting it but now i cannot get it to remount!
    I cannot even see it in the disk utility or system profiler.
    I have tried another card reader (a brand new one bought today) and the same problem exists. I've also tried different cards to see if that made a difference and they still arent being picked up on the Mac. 
    I have done all the usual things like rebooting, unplugging all other USB devices and then trying but nothing has worked.
    I'm a photographer and I'm at my wits end here. I know the cards are fine as i have been using them without issue and they are also new.
    Note: If I plug the camera in directly to the Mac, the Mac picks it up just fine as it always has done. Its just the card readers that it wont pick up anymore.
    If anyone has any ideas at all other than the following (my so called friends advice) you'd earn my undting love:
    Buy a PC
    Use the camera (Thats why i bought the reader in the first place - importing RAW files from the camera is SLOW!)
    Replace your CF cards (I have three 8GB cards two of which i had never used til today and they dont work either!)
    Buy a new card reader (this is the 5th one in two days - none work on the Mac)
    Many thanks in advance!

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

  • Can't get sound from my midi channels

    Hello. I've been using Logic 8 for a while. 2 days ago I updated to the newest version 8.0.1 and after I did it, I can't get sound from my midi channels. Before the update I could use my Ivory pianos perfectly, but after the update I can't. I've tried every setup I can imagine. I've been here sitting for hours trying to fix it but I can't .
    Logic recognizes my keyboard, since I play...all the notes appear on the transport bar, but i can't get sound from any sampler (Ivory, EXS, EVP88, etc).
    I've checked my outputs, etc...but nothing.
    Please help me!!! I'm desperate!
    Thanks

    Do you hear the Audio tracks and only Software Instruments are not working od don't you get any output at all? I was just assuming that through the update your Apogee has been removed as your Audio device in Preferences->Audio->devices.

  • Can't Get Sound from Harmon Kardon Soundsticks External Speakers

    My Soundsticks have worked fine on my eMac and iBook bow I can' get sound from them. The System Pref has only "Internal Speakers" as an output option. I've zapped the PRAM and fixed permissions with no luck.
    What am I missing? They have worked before and all connections from speakers to the iBook headphone jack are fine. Earbuds work.
    Any and all help is appreciated.

    Do the speakers still work with the eMac?
    Have you tried resetting the PMU?
    Are you saying that earbuds work with the iBook, while the speakers do not? How can that be if the only output option is listed as internal speakers?

  • Can't get sound from Insignia BT headphones w/ BT-equipped dv3t

    Both are brand-new, I charged the headphones and downloaded the updated drivers from www.broadcom.com (actually Vista seemed to do it automatically) and the device is paired but I can't get any sound out of it (it's turned on:-)).
    Under the Playback tab in the Sound control panel there are three items:
    Speakers: Bluetooth Hands-free Audio
    Speakers and Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    Independent Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    All say they are working, but when I test the sound of each one I only get sound from the notebook speakers using the second option. The only weird thing I can think of is that I had the USB adapter plugged in when I downloaded the drivers, so maybe it downloaded drivers designed to work through USB? (I can't get sound with the adapter plugged in, though, either).
    Any suggestions welcome, I really want to get this to work and not have to send the headphones back to seller (which is what Insignia tech support told me to do).
    P.S. I know I have BT turned on because I'm also connected to a wireless home network, they go together.

    Hello again,
    oops, I must have missed your last message... sorry for that!
    I have to say, that I don t have my digital sound system that long, that I can answer this question for sure. However...
    You re right, that it should be possible, although I wasn t able to find a way to do that... yet... Somewhere (don t know if it was this forum or another place) I ve read, that the SPDIF support for Windows Vista isn t that nice at this time... perhaps a new driver will solve this
    Furthermore... I don t use the Media Center that much. So I don t even know if there is any option to set the output device (within the application Media Center). That would be important to realize "the best of both worlds". Explanation: If you want headphones support, you (always) have to leave the Speakers device as default. Other applications (such as Winamp,...) allow us to set the output device (in Winamp for example you can set it under the preferences Output -> Directsound device) to the SPDIF device, although we have selected "Speakers" as default in the control panel... nice, isn t it's For sure... if it would work...
    That way you don t get a(n) AC3/DTS signal via SPDIF... so, if you use Windows Vista (I can't answer your question related to other operating systems, because of my newly purchased system -> I haven t used it on XP) the only way that I know ( til now) is to select the SPDIF device as default...

  • Getting sound from macbook to work on HDTV

    Hi, I'm having problems getting sound from my macbook aluminum 13" to my tv. The tv is a Samsung R8 Series 37" LE37R87BD HD. i got picture up by running a dvi to hdmi to the tv. i have no problem with picture but i can't get any sound. I tried 3.5mm jack from macbook to tv 3.5mm jack. got no sound. so bought a 3.5mm Jack to 2 x RCA and still got no sound. i even ran the the jack through my home cinema system and to no luck.
    is anyone else having this problem and is there a solution?

    Forgive what may be a dumb question on my part, but you are using the correct audio jack on your MacBook? The output would be the one closest to the security slot, farthest from the display/USB ports of the two 3.5mm/optical jacks. Also check the Output tab of the Sound system preferences to make sure that the Headphones/Line output is selected. It will probably be the only output shown, but double-check just to make sure.
    Note that not all TVs will work with an auxiliary audio input when the video input is set to HDMI. Check your TV's documentation to see if it can split the video and audio input to different sources. That wouldn't, of course, explain why your audio amplifier isn't getting signal either.

  • How to get photos from iphoto back onto an SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with a built in SC card slot.

    How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

    It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card.  Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.
