Help importing movie into Garageband

When dragging a movie into a Garageband track, the green plus appears but the movie does not appear in the track!
The film appears in my movies tab (as an event) on the right.
I have tried in .mov and .mpeg4 formats, and neither work. I've also tried importing the file into imovie, and finalising a project - and it still wont accept the video file.
Any help would be appreciated!

I've tried to drag into an empty track, and it still doesn't work.
Don't drag onto any track - drag into the track area below the existing tracks.
A movie cannot go into an audio track.

Importing movie into Flash

Does anyone have any knowledge of importing movies into
flash?
I have a movie streaming in my flash file but when some
people open the exe they only see black when the movie should be
showing. And some others can see the movie. Any thoughts?

you can import them as an image sequence, then create a movie
clip out of it. File-->import-->import to stage.. Then select
all the images, and it something should pop up asking if you are
trying to create an image sequence, select yes.

Import movies into itune

Hello,
how can I import movies into itune. I have tried it with many formates but i doesen´t work and it doesn´t convert.
Thanks

If they are your own private vdieos, it's fine to import them. They need to be in the right format i.e. Quickitme format or MPEG4.
If the are not you need to convert them, here is a link to a free converter, I have not tried it myself so can not vouch for its quality:

Import Movie into Logic

Hi,
I gonna import movie into Logic to b my lip sync and overdub purpose..but i found that it only allow 1 clip to be import,am i right?
How to import more than 1 clip?2..3...clips..
thanks

The only problem with combining two separate movies is this: if each is striped with timecode, there's very little chance that the timecode will be contiguous as a result. So assuming you're working to t/c, you'll be able to get the first part of the movie to agree with Logic's t/c counter, but not the second (added) part. This may or may not be a problem, but I can't imagine working without t/c that's in agreement all across the board.
The second thing... AFAIK, iMovie works best if the native format of the video is DV. If it's any other format it will mess up the picture big time. QTPro is, IMO, the preferred way to go, and what I continue to use.
However, I do use iMovie to create titles for each clip I send a director (for evaluation, comments, etc.). I write up info re the name of the movie/date/cue#/revision notes, etc. export this as a QT movie itself, and tag it to the beginning of the actual movie before sending it off.

Can we import audio into GarageBand?

I'd like to import an MP3 (or any supported format) into a Garageband track.
Can it be done?

I know this thread was last posted some time ago, but since this still comes up on the google results when asking this question, I thought I'd post the solution here as well:
You CAN import audio into GarageBand on the iPad, though you need a computer to do it. Open iTunes on your Mac or Windows machine, connect the iPad. Open the iPad up, at the top of the screen should be a tab for "Apps". Go there, then scroll down. You should see a list of apps that can share information with a computer (on mine I only have three, GarageBand, Kindle, and Clean Writer). Click on GarageBand and you'll have a chance to add files to the list. Once you've selected the files from your hard drive (i've only tried mp3 files so far), click apply.
When you go into garageband on the iPad, you can create a new track in the multi-track view, tap on the "loops" icon, tap "Audio Files" and you should see all the files you copied over from your PC or Mac. You can then drag them into the timeline. Now you can play along with your own audio.
Here's a video someone else made of the process:

I just wish the iPad version of garageband had some more effects. I like to practice with my iPad and my electric bass, and on the PC I can use EQ to "remove" the bass from the original song and playback with my recordings. No EQ on the iPad makes this a bit more difficult. Still a gret product, though.

Need help importing MOV files into iMovie

I am trying to import MOV files from a USB disk -- into iMovie's event library. When I click on the files on the USB -- they are grey and won't import. They will play in QuickTime. What could the problem be? I have the latest OS and am up to date.

Can you maybe try converting them? Download the free program called Miro Video Converter from the Mac App Store. Drag the video into the window and set the output format as mp4. iMovie should import that properly.
Sorry I couldnt be more of a help.
Let us know!

Audio-yes, Video-no (totally black) when importing .mov into FCP X, please help!

Hello
I am trying to import some .mov files into Final Cut Pro X. The files were originally .RTS, shot from a Canon XHA1 in 1080i, I converted them to .mov using SmartConverter and they play absolutely fine in Quicktime. However, when I import them into FCP X, the audio plays fine, but the video just shows a black screen. The codecs of the .mov files are standard H.264/AAC. My other .mov files (from the same camera that were shot in 1080p instead of 1080i) import fine into FCP.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Laura.

Here's a print screen of the smart converter..

Echo when I import movie into iDVD

The move is in Quicktime Export-Quicktime movie - Make Movie Self Contained deselected and then I import it into iDVD. The movie starts with a Voice Over and for the first ten seconds there is a decided echo - actually a parallel thread of speech, "My my name name is is..."
I can't figure out what caused this. Worse, I can't figure out a do over.
I play the Timeline and it is fine.
I continue to play the movie in iDVD and after the ten second glitch, that, too, sounds fine.
I'm desperate. Help will be appreciated.

No, the echo is there in Quicktime.
Well, I THINK I rendered everything out.... I hit Sequence -render all-needs render.
Mixed down the audio? How do I do that?
Thanks for the response, Sasha. I know how a guy in the Atlantic feels when he sees a rope snaking down to him. Thanks.

Problems importing movies into Keynote

I have been using Keynote for a couple of years (now using Keynote 08 on a MacBook running 10.5.5). I recently started having problems importing movie files into my Keynote presentations. I usually just drag a .mov file and it plays with no problems, but lately when I do this it doesn't appear on the Keynote slide and when I play the presentation I get only audio w/ no video. I tried importing the files to quicktime and exporting them again to be sure they were in the correct format. This seemed to work a few times, but now that isn't working either. Any suggestions?

I'm having what sounds like the same problem. I have Quick Time video from a Flip Cam that I want to use in a KeyNote presentation. I added the movie successfully at first, but when I opened the file to continue work, it appeared as a black box. It has sound, but no image. I can see it ok in the navigator. I've searched the forum for answers, but haven't found anything that works yet.
Does the display setting have anything to do with this? One of the computers I work on has the display set to use with a LED projector. Thanks

Importing Movies into iTunes on Mac

Importing movies into iTunes 11

I'm trying to import a few movies into iTunes. I used HandBrake to rip them (used AppleTV preset). Previously, I've imported them by going to Add to Library. But this time it isn't working... I also tried to drag and drop into iTunes (as per another thread). When I checked the iTunes Media folder (in home movies) all the movies are there, but they don't show up in Library. What am I doing wrong? The only thing I've done differently this time was using the Apple TV preset, previously I've used Regular Normal - could that be the issue????

I was having the same problem today with a m4v file. After a bit of searching around I found that manually putting it in iTunes' "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder did the trick. All of my earlier attempts to drag the movie into iTunes showed up as well (in the Home Movies category). I deleted the extra copies and added my own meta data.
Found on this site: http://johandry.blogspot.com/2013/01/digitalize-dvds-with-handbrake-for.html
" just copy the movie to the folder 'iTunes Media/Automatically Add to iTunes' located in the iTunes Library folder, usually in the /Users/username/Music folder but you may have it in other location even in an external hard drive. "

Can anyone help me on this.

Looking on the web I found that the Graboid video content needs converting. Itunes will accept mp4 or m4v.

Remember it is illegal to convert videos you do not have copyright to.

How do you import movies into iMovie?

i have imovie'11 version 9.0.8
want to upload about 40 vidio clips to make a short film
I click on file > import > movies
then when i have found the folder I save to mactintosh hd and add to existing event which is new event
I have tried checking the box to optimise video to Large - 960 x 540 and also tried unchecking this box
and I select copy files
after doing this I have left for at least 5 hours (both times, optimising and not) but nothing has happended and I have had to force quit imovie
the clips I am using are MPEG movie, dimentions 720 x 576

I have the following situation:
Source Computer:
MacBook Pro
      Snow Leopard
      iMovie 11
Destination Computer:
iMac
     Mountain Lion
     iMovie 11
Our soccer coach took another job, but had created all kinds of iMovie projects on his MBP. This was his own personal laptop, and we wanted the information transferred onto a school-owned Mac. Tech copied the Movies folder under his user account to an external drive. This folder contains all of the projects and events for the soccer season.
Copied the Movies folder to the Public folder of the local administrator's account on the destination computer. Tech adjusted the permissions for everyone to read-write, and applied permissions to all contents within.
The problem is that from Finder, you can see all of the files - the .MOV files in the events folder, and you can see the projects thumbnails. Double clicking on a project file opens iMovie, but nothing happens - iMovie opens with a blank project.
When clicking on File --> import movies... you can see the project names, but they are all greyed out. The events will import fine, but the projects will not.
I need help with this - i'm a novice at iMovie, and would like to get this situaion resolved.
Thanks,
Mark
