HELP!!! Adding effect turns the entire clip white.

I've needed to change some of the words on a title clip, but can't edit the clip since it's been saved long ago, so I need to start over with a completely new clip. Well, I get the right font, right size, right title entrance. But then once I try to add the "Aged Film" effect after creating the title, it turns the entire clip white and you can't see anything.
I'm really frustrated by this since this is one of the last changes I need to make to the video and it won't cooperate for some reason.

Hi
a. free space on internal hard disk ?
b. Did You delete iMovie pref file ?
c. Did You store Your movie project on an external hard disk ?

Just discovered this nifty little bug myself today. Boy, Leopard is really bug city, I'm definitely regretting the upgrade. I was glad to find the 'show in mailbox' trick, although then once I went to re-send the message, it duplicated it for some reason and sent it twice, so now my business contact thinks I'm a moron because I sent him this super large attachment TWICE thanks to moronic Mail.app.
Another interesting thing though, is that after finding the email via 'show in mailbox' and opening it, it actually displayed the MP3 attachment as the old Tiger quicktime player (w/progress bar) as opposed to when I first composed the message and it would only display it as an icon. I thought they had just removed that feature for some reason, but nope! Another bug!

Adding 2 effects to the same clip!!!

Hi,
Can you add 2 different video effects to the same clip in iMovie 9? You used to be able to do it in the old iMovie - how can you do it in this version. For example if I want to have aged film and vignetting on the SAME clip?

In the older versions of iMovie, you render as you go, so you could pile render on top of render. However, in the new iMovie, all rendering is done at the end, so you can only do one video effect per clip (more if you count the video adjustments).
However, you can simulate the effect of multiple renders by
1) create a project just for this clip you want to manipulate. Drag the appropriate clips into the Project from the Event
2) Apply the first effect. SHARE the project using QuickTime in Current Dimensions in Apple Intermediate Codec.
3. Import the resulting file back into iMovie and place it into an Event.
4. Drag this clip into your main project and apply the second effect.

How do you add multiple effects to the same clip

How do you had multiple effects to the same clip. I have tried for hours
I would like to add sepia and aged movie to the same clip. I heard it can be done, but have not figured out how to do it.
anyone please.

Normally you can apply only one video effect at a time. But for Sepia, black and white, and others that can be done through the video Adjustments tab, you are in luck.
Aged Movie should already have a bit of a sepia tone.
If you want more of a sepia tone or you want to fine tune the sepia effect you can do it with the Clip Inspector/Video Adjustments tab.
Note: Thanks to Jeff Carlson of MacWorld for this tip.
If you're looking for a washed-out sepia appearance, first open iMovie's preferences and turn on the Show Advanced Tools option, which adds more controls to the Video Adjustments HUD and other areas of the program. Select the clip you want to alter and press the V key. Set Saturation to 0 percent, and then drag the Red Gain slider to 143 percent, the Green Gain slider to 90 percent, and the Blue Gain slider to 53 percent (feel free to tweak these settings to customize the results). Click on Done when you're finished. Note that the clip thumbnail still appears in color, as the video was shot, but the preview reflects your changes.--JC
If you need to apply the same settings to all clips, first select the clip you have adjusted. Then Edit/Copy. Then Edit/Select All. Then Edit/Paste Adjustments.

How can I modify the Fit, Crop, or Ken Burns effect for the entire movie?

How can I modify the Fit, Crop, or Ken Burns effect for the entire movie? I've been having to go through them all individually which takes forever.

You could try Edit > Select All then click on the crop button and change the setting from Ken Burns to Fit.
I find that this only works if you do not have the Automatic Cross Dissolve transitions in place.
If you do, File > Project Theme and uncheck the transitions and remove them.
After you have changed from Ken Burns to Fit, you can re-apply them.
Easiest way in future is to set up your project (File > Project Properties) before you start adding photos.

Help, somebody has turned the restrictions on on my daughters iPad mini and we don't know the pass code to turn it off. She can't use iTunes because of them being turned on. I have tried backing it up to a laptop and then restoring it to factory settings but you need the pass code to do this....any ideas how I can turn it off or reset it, anything that might help its driving me potty...
Many thanks

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

Does iMovie '08 allow effect for an entire clip?

I just started working in '04, and I find that color correction and Brightness & Contrast only work on a 10 sec. portion of the clip. Does the new version work on the entire clip, say, in this instance, about 3.5 min.?
Thanks.
Jim

OK - I have been able to answer my own question.
First I converted one of my mini-movie AVI files to mpg-2 with VisualHub
This file could not be imported into iMovie '08
Following the advice in another message in this forum, I took one of my USB2 flash drives and created a folder MP_ROOT at the root level of the drive and created a folder 101PNV01 inside the MP_ROOT folder. I placed the mpg-2 file created by VisualHub in the 101PNV01 folder.
When I started iMovie '08, the flash drive was recognized as a camera and I was allow to import the mpg-2 file into a new event.
When I looked in the iMovie Events folder mentioned in the first posting of this thread, the file type of the clip was .MOV. The Quicktime Player shows the format of the file as Apple MPEG-2 SD Camcorder Video.
Question answered.

Warp Stabilizing the entire clip error

Hey guys. As you can see I'm trying to stabilize a 3 seconds clip. But when the Warp Stabilizer is analyzing the entire .mov instead of just those 300 frames.
Does any of you know what's happening?
Thanks!

Any help with this?
I want to stabilize just a 3second cut, but the effect insists in stabilizing the entire .mov file

Adding keylistener to the entire applet

How can I addKeyListener(this) to the entire applet frame? I know in applications you name the frame and everything then can just add it to whatever you named it, but applets make the frame on their own. So what do I tell to addkeylistener to?

lol thanks
I just put
addKeyListener(this);whatever.. thanks :)

Help adding effects on a photo?

Edited
I hope you know what do I mean. It's like a retrica photo.
And other plans for it. Glowy Eyes. and Making the skin whiter.
Any ideas or help for these ideas? Thanks!

Not exactly sure what you want, but you could overlay the bottom image on top of the top image and use a blend mode like screen or overlay.

Please help- adding text/titles to a clip

I hope someone here can help me!
I seem to have this problem continuously, and have previously worked around it, but it's giving me the s**ts.
Here's the scenario- I want to add text OVER a clip, not on black.
Sounds simple right?
NOPE! I do the preview- yup it's over the clip.
I click add, or drag it, or click the tick in the preview.
As it's rendering- yup, shows it over the clip.
But as soon as it STOPS- all of a sudden it's just text on black.
I've tried using different sorts of titles (from music to subtitles, everything) but the exact same thing happens- preview is fine, as it renders it looks fine, but it ends up being text on black. (Yes, I have 'on black' unchecked).
I also tried adding it in different ways, ie adding at the playhead or dragging it in- no difference.
Am I missing something vitally obvious here? How can I get my text OVER the clip?

Hi
a. to add text - the text tool has to know where. Just placing playhead will not
work. The text tools orients after clip cuts. You need to do a cut where the text
is supposed to start.
b. I guess that deleting pref file might get iMovie to behave.
Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows:
Many possible origins. Most common:
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disc if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Hard disc is untidy: Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disc (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
• Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK
• Program miss-match: iMovie 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4 - is OK
iMovie pref file resides: Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named: com.apple.iMovie.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.

Why doesn't the graphical waveform update after adding effects to the rack??

I've noticed that when you add effects to sounds you hear the difference but the waveform does not SHOW you the difference. There's no way of telling how high you're getting with some effects. You don't see any true representation of the audio in the Editor Panel until you Apply the effect. But what's the point of that? That's like making color adjustments to a photo by changing levels but not being able to see what your doing. This sucks. This is absurd. Does Audition do this too?

It works fine on my systems running Mavericks, so this is not something Apple has removed but rather something amiss with your system. I'm not sure what to suggest, but downloading and reinstalling the 10.9.2 Combo Updater might help:

If you have a Magic Mouse you might also look to the various touch/swipe settings; not having one I can't be more specific. Someone else here may have a better suggestion.

Final Cut Pro X crashes when adding transitions, throughout the entire program.

I've had FCP X installed for a few weeks now, and I decided to hold back asking my question and see if anybody else is experiencing the same problems.
I did find one matching problem on the discussions forum, but the user found a solution which I tried, and did it did not work.
Everytime I try to add a very simple transition to my video in Final Cut Pro X, it gives me the spinning colorwheel, hesitates for a few seconds and then crashes.
It only does it with transitions, I can add effects, adjust color, etc. but only when adding transitions does it crash.
I've tried deleting events and original media, I've reimported using optimized media, I've tried both ways of keeping files in original locations and also copying to final cut events folder.
The video I'm using is full 1080p mov files from a Canon 5D Mark II.
It does it in the timeline as well as the secondary timeline.
I've tried the solution that the previous asker did, which was copying the content to another FCP event, and it didn't work for me. Still crashes whether I try to drag the transition to my timeline, use the keyboard shortcut, or double click.
I have a Early 2010 15 inch MBP i5 with 8gb of RAM running newest version of Snow Leopard.
Hope I've provided enough information
Thanks,
-Jon

Same Issue: Added a transition and then beach ball from **** and crash. Also lost two hours of work when it restarted and reverted to the last planned quit.
FCPX is benched until Lion and updates. Don't have time to be a beta tester on what might end up being a hobbyists toy.
MacPro Quad 3.0, 10G RAM.

Anyone use Cineform Codecs and have trouble reading the entire clip in the new CC timelines?

I have 3 36+ minute clips in an old CS4 timeline all originally encoded with a CineForm codec. Recently upgraded to CC when computer took a dump. I openned the old timeline and updated it to CC but the timeline will only show the first minute of video (which works great) and then it goes black. Is this a leap from CS4 to CC issue or a Codec issue?
Any help is much appriciated.
- Mike

In addition to the codec, you'll need the CineForm AVI File importer which installs into CC versions of Premiere with GoPro Studio Premium. You can theoretically copy it from an older version of Premiere and Prospect 4K though. Contact me through the CineForm Support website and i can help you out with this.
