How can I access advanced drop downs in IMovie if they are grayed out

I'm trying to insert a jpg over a portion of my video. Nothing I've tried has worked. A video indicates that I can do this using the advanced options.  The video indicates how to go through Preferences to gain access to the advanced option but the video preferences are not the same as my preferences so I'm back to square one. How do I get access to the advanced options that are grayed out in my iMovie.
I'm using IMovie HD 6. Thx

Depending on where you have the mouse clicked, you might see the menus change. So click the mouse down into the movie timeline at the bottom of the screen itself and you might see the Extract Audio option become available under the Advanced Menu for instance.

  • How can I get a drop-down list selection also be selected in another field with the same list but a different name?

    I have a street address and a billing address. A question is posed with a checkbox — "Is the billing address the same as the street address?" If Yes is checked, the street address automatically fills the billing fields. If No is checked, the user must fill in new information. In both the street address and billing addres, the State field is a drop-down list. How can I get the drop-down list selection in the street address State also be selected in drop-down list for the billing address State?

    Has anyone done this?

  • How can I get the drop down menu on the internet to work, which shows most visited websites? It was working on Firefox, and now doesn't.

    On the internet when using Firefox, the drop down menu on recently visited sites (where you type in web addresses), does not work. How can I get it drop down and show websites that I recently visited, so I can click on them there instead of retyping them every time?

    Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing":
    * Firefox (Tools) > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

    Lack of support from that company seems to be a non-uncommon problem. But it's not a problem you will be likely to get help with in the Communities, and definitely not here in the "Using Apple Support Communities" forum which is for questions about the Communities themselves. If MacWare can't or won't help you, you may be stuck, though there was an email address posted in this thread:

  • How can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out

    how can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out. It doesnt let me delete from itunes either and its just taking up space on my iphone and i cant even listen to the song that are grayed out

    I did this with about 100 songs, and the problem is everytime I connect my iphone with itunes, It will automatically sync back every single song I did delete on the phone by swiping.
    I did search on google and found out that serveral people has this problem. The songs wont delete from itunes library.
    So why do they even make this function if it only deletes the songs for a short time?
    Best regards PelleRPG.

  • How can I locate the drop down menu to select thumbnails for viewing my photos?

    I am using Microsoft Windows Vista. I select Files> Get photos and Videos> From Files and Folders.  I select my photos and In my views I have a choice of different size icons, list, details and tiles.  The icons are a flower image. When I select an image to view it only appears as an extra large icon on the middle right side of the moniter.  I would like to view the thumbnail of the photo bfore I bring to my organizer.  The drop down menu doesn't have a choice for thumbnail.  

    Perhaps I need to supply more details.  I am using PSE9.  I haven't any problem importing the images into the Organizer as I just select the Icons and select "Get Media" or "Open" and they transfer over to the Organizer.  I would like to see the image as a thumbnail not an icon when when making the selection.  If I right click them, the Icon, and select open they will open in "Windows Live Photo Gallery".
    The icons are now listed on the left  side of the monitor about the right middle it states "Select A File To Preview".  When I select a file (icon) a large file (icon) appears in that area and it should be a thumbnail of the image. Somehow I can't locate the drop down menu taht permits me to make that selection.  I think it has something to do with my files being able to open in Windows Live Photo Gallery when right clicking and select Open.  Is the drop down menu only available in Windows 7?

  • How can I create a drop down menu from an array

    Hello all,
    I am attempting to create a subvi that allows the end user to add a part number to an .txt file, and assigns that part number a value than can be used to select one of two modes of communication to be used to write to a EEPROM.   I am using the "write key.vi" and the "read key.vi" to create and read the .txt file.  What I would like to do is is use "get section names.vi" to read all of the part numbers and dump them into a drop down menu after the end user generates the file using the subvi.
    I guess my question is how do I dump a 1D string array into a drop down menu.
    I have attached some semi-functional .vi's to give an idea of what i am attempting to do.

    Place a Ring control on your front panel, then create a property node on the block digram. You can wire the output array of "Get Section Names" to populate the Strings[ ] property of the Ring.
    Retrieve the specific string selected by the operator by wiring the Ring control to the Index Array function.
    Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T

  • Made a drop down menu. How can I get the drop down to fade in and out? !

    Hi guys!
    I've created a drop down menu (with the help of you legends on here! )...Now I just need it to animate so when the user hovers over the main menu item, the drop down fades in.
    Here's the HTML I have...
        <ul id="nav">
            <li><a href="#">Nav 1</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 2</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 3</a>
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 1</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 2</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 3</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 4</a></li>
                </ul>
            </li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 5</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 6</a></li>
        </ul>
    ...and here's my CSS...
    ul#nav {width:920px; height:35px; list-style:none; padding:0; margin:0; background:url(navBg.jpg) repeat-x; z-index:999;}
    ul#nav li a:hover, #nav li a:active {background:url(navOn.jpg) repeat-x; text-decoration:none;}
    ul#nav li a {color:#E0E2E7; display:inline-block; float:left; margin:0; padding:10px 19px; width:auto; text-decoration:none;}
    * html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; }  /* for IE 6 */
    * + html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; }  /* for IE 7 */
    #nav ul {width:208px; left:-9999em; list-style:none; margin:35px 0; padding:0; position:absolute; z-index:999;}
    #nav li:hover ul {left:auto;}
    #nav li {float:left;}
    #nav li li a {width:190px; background-color:#efefef; color:#2e2e2e; padding:8px; margin:0; }
    #nav li li a:hover {background-color:#000; background-image:none; color:#FFF;}
    #nav li:hover {background:url(assets/images/frame/navOn.jpg);}
    From what I can make out, I assume I need either Javascript or JQuery...
    Does anyone know how I can get the drop down to fade in and out?
    Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
    SM

    Yes, you'll need a client-side script to do fade-in/fade-out fx.  Look at jQuery Superfish.

  • How can I get bookmark drop down to extend folder list to the left instead of the right?

    Recently cleaned up my bookmarks. Previously when I clicked on the bookmark file bar icon (between history and tools buttons at the top of the screen) the bookmark drop down would appear with my folders and links (as expected) and when I moused over a folder it would open a drop down list on the left of the main bookmark drop down but now it is opening on the right. How can I get it back to opening on the right?
    This is not about having a bookmark pane always open on the left side of the window. Rather it is about how to control how the drop down menus act. (OSX 10.9.3 and Firefox 30.0)
    Thanks!

    So I think I understand what your suggesting but I have a folder inside a folder that has long names and it opens back to the left (after the initially opening to the right) and appears to overlay the screen space needed to display the titles.
    If your right (no pun intended) then the programming that supports the drop down menu display would need to scan through all the enclosed folders looking for the potentially longest title to determine which way to open the list?
    I know that this is a minor issue but it does seem that something may have changed here. It would be nice if there was away to control this part of the drop down operation. Thanks!

  • How can I get a drop down choice to auto populate another cell?

    Hey there.
    I have a drop down list of options and for my spreadsheet to do What i need ot to do, I need to assign each choice a different value.  How can I do this so that when I pick "choice 1" it will place a pre determined value in a different cell?

    You can add a table that provide a list of items (that are in the pop up menu) and a corresponding value (shown on the right):
    In the table on the left you can refer to the table "Price List" to locate the item in column A, then retrieve the corresponding value from column B.
    B2=VLOOKUP(A2,Price List::A:B,2,0)
    this is shorthand for... select cell B1, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
    =VLOOKUP(A2,Price List::A:B,2,0)
    select cell B2, copy
    now select column B, then unselect cell B1, by holding the command key and clicking cell B1
    paste
    change the pop-up menus in column A as needed.

  • How can I select from drop-down list and jumping to selected subform?

    I using LC Designer ES2 vers 9. Developing XDP. How can I Select from a drop-down list the appropriate selected subform (jumping to the selected subform on the page)?
    drop-down list...A (jump to subform1)
                             B (jump to subform2)
                             C (jump to subform3)
    subform1
    subform2
    subform3
    ....end of form

    Hi,
    you cannot set focus on a subform but on a field, as only interactive objects can be focussed.
    From a dropdowns exit event the script will look this way:
    switch (this.rawValue) {
              case "A" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
              case "B" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
