  • How can I save my iMovie Project to a DVD or Flash Drive which can be played on a PC and any DVD player

    I have an iMac, purchased in January 2011. How can I save an iMovie project to a DVD or Flash Drive which can be played on a PC or any DVD player

    I will give you a basic primer, not going to get to in depth, as far as parameters, size of project, or the storage size of your usb flash drive, etc.
    1. you have your finished iMovie project. Under iMovie>Share menu. Choose export using quicktime.
    2. make Movie self contained. This way your Mov, Mvi, etc files will be part of the movie and it can play without having to reference the events, because it is actually there.
    3. so, now on your desktop  ( or any where else set up quicktime to save your file) you will see a quicktime file.
         Drag & Drop that file on to the icon of your USB Flash Drive, etc.
    4. Details that I omitted because I admit I am not well versed. Most Likely that quicktime file is larger than your USB Flash Drive. You have to use one of quicktime compression work flows, also if you open the just created quicktime file. It will open quicktime player and under the File>Export you have to options. I have a Movie that was 42GB 1080P, I exported it as a 720P, so it would still be playable on a large screen and now the new file was less than 2.5GB.
    5. Oh, no i just realized that the file should be playable on a PC, as long as the PC has quicktime for windows installled and you left that USB formated at MS DOS as it came originally, or a PC will not recognize it. Will it open up on your Blu-Ray Player that has a USB port, not sure. Since there is no menu. but, perhaps just pushing play will start movie.
    Hope this is of some help.

  • How can I convert my imovie from ipad to burn dvd on PC

    I have produced a 30 minute video for my son's football team using Imovie on my ipad.  I do not have an apple computer and need to convert the imovie to my PC in order to burn DVD's.  This process seems impossible.  I have read many forums and am trying to export the project to my camera roll, however the process never completes itself.  It will export for literally hours without completing the process.  This project have taken me weeks to complete, mainly because the process is very slow with imovie and extremely frustating.  Now, I'm ready to finish up and am so worried I will never get it off my ipad.  What do I do??

    NO files larger that 500mb (which is **** near any video)  will not transfer!
    At: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    It incorrectly state this:
    "Windows XP cannot import video files larger than 500 MB using Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can transfer these files directly from your device by selecting them in My Computer and dragging or copying the movie files to your computer's hard drive."
    Problem is that NO videos are shown as I open my ipad up in "My Computer", only photographs I have taken
    THIS INSANE.  You put Hign Def Video camera on the IPAD and NO simple way to get the you home made videos of it?  Search this topic "transfer video from ipad to computer"  you get NO help.  the only responses are from people hocking there "computer programs that will do it"  or "apps" that transfer files. 
    Apple here is the reality. At this point, regarding computers, PC is King...get it?  We do not all have apple computers to go along with our ipads.  ... So incase i need to break it down for you....YOU NEED TO HAVE A EASY WAY TO REMOVE VIDEOS FROM AN IPAD TO A FREAKIN PC...
    I am not sure what is most amazing:
    -ipad designers not seeing this as a problem
    -the lies at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 that discuss easy it is to simply open up "my computer" and drag an drop
    -ignorant people responding to several other people with my same simple problem with stupid response like "so you want to put a video on your ipad, you do that thru itunes" or "gosh it's been a while since i did this but its real easy, i think..."
    There are not even any you tube videos on the subject... Am I in Bizzaro World here????

  • How can I convert an iMovie 9 project down to iMovie 8?

    Student started movie project in school in iMovie 8.  Took project home to work on it, but had iMovie 9 at home.  Now, he can't read his movie project on computer at school (in iMovie 8).  Any "Save as" or down-converter? 

    It is not possible to downconvert. You can forward-convert to a later version because the later version has all the old features plus some new ones. You cannot backward convert, because once you convert, the project file now has the new data structures that enable the new features. The old version does not know what to do with these.
    If he was running Time Machine, he could go back to the iMovie 08 version and just lose any edits he made under iMovie 09. Otherwise, he should just finish up the project at home.

  • Now that iDVD is discontinued what can I use alongside iMovie to burn a dvd

    I have managed to transfer all my old home videos onto my computer but the instructions are to transfer them from iMovie directly into iDVD to burn them to disc. I dont have iDVD installed and have tried various other methods but cannot make a copy. I have installed miDVD and have managed to burn a dvd using this but there is no sound. Please help but keep it simple as I am not very good with computer jargon. Thanks.

    I don't know your iMac model number, you didn't supply it. But if it shipped with an OS X version prior to Lion, you should have 2 grey DVDs. The 2nd grey DVD may have included iLife applications.
    Otherwise, the only source would be a retail iLife 011 DVD. You may be able to find one on eBay.

  • How can i convert an iMovies file to be e-mailed and sent to a PC user?.

    I have a Sony Cyber shot DSC-HX9V, I have taken some videos and have tried to import / download on to my MacBook Pro. When viewing in iphoto the movies have been flattened to a .jpeg image.
    I have opened up imovies and I can see the movie, although in many frames/second, i have created a new project and collected all the frames so it forms one file. I have tried to e-mail this movie to a PC user and all they can see is the flat .jepg image.
    Help!!!.
    I look forward to your / anyones comments.
    Thanks.

    You should post in the iMovie forum area. 
    You should also mention which os you are using also.

  • How can I convert MiniDV tapes to DVD? I've use a Canon GL 2 and an iMac about 1 year old. I'm trying to use iMovie and I've installed the latest drivers.

    How can I convert MiniDV tapes to DVD? I've use a Canon GL 2 and an iMac about 1 year old. I'm trying to use iMovie and I've installed the latest drivers.

    MiniDV was a great format, one I still use often. I also still use iMovie HD6 to process it and, for all the iterations of iMovie that followed it, I still believe it was one of Apple's greatest movie software programmes, next to Final Cut Pro, using a timeline method of editing. That was also in the day which Apple put Superdrives into their computers, so that you could not only make your movie in iMovie, but you could render it to iDVD and then burn the DVD. Now you need to buy an external burner.
    Since iMovie HD6 and iDVD 6 were "universal" software, it has continued to work through the many OS releases since it came out with Tiger, I believe it was. So, it may still work with Mavericks too and, if you could locate a copy of iLife 06, probably used, you might enjoy the difference that HD6 has over all iMovie releases since then.
    Not saying you can't process your MiniDV with current iMovie versions, but I'm not the one to speak about that.

  • How can I convert MPEG files (stored on a PC) to use in iMovie on my Macbook Pro?

    How can I convert MPEG files (stored on a PC) to use in iMovie on my Macbook Pro?

    Get a free app called MPEG Streamclip.
    Available here.
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    Drag your clip or clips into MPEG Streamclip. Then use FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME to export the clips in Apple Intermediate Codec.
    Sometimes, MPEG2 clips also require that you install the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component. MPEG Streamclip will tell you if you need this. This is available from Apple for $20.

  • I recently purchased QuickTime 7 Pro to convert avi files to mov files for editing on Imovie. However, QuickTime won't play the files. How can I get them to play and how can I convert them to mov files?

    Both the AVI and the MOV file extensions refer to the file container and not the compressed data the file contains. Both are generic file containers in that each may contain any valid combination of audio and/or video data that is compatible with the codec component configuration of the system on which the file was created. On the other hand, whether a file is playback compatible, conversion compatible, and/or edit compatible depends on the data actually contained in the file container. So, you are basically dealing with two separate issues here—the container and what is inside it.
    Basically, if you want to make your files ediit compatible with iMovie, you must change your file container to one that is acceptable to iMovie and convert the data to edit compatible audio and/or video compression formats as may be necessary. The best approach is to determine what codecs were actually used to create the original AVI files and add them to your system if possible. In most cases a codec package like Perian can be added to your system's codec component configuration to may the AVI file playable. Once they are playable, in the QT 7 app then they can be chnged or converted to file types and compression formats that can be edited in iMovie. (While Perian handles most codecs commonly used to create AVI files, it does not handle all possibilities and, while the Perian codec package still works under cureent Mac OS versions, its development group has decided to drop further development/support of the package.)
    Background: AVI is a file container originally developed by Microsoft back in 1992 but for which official support was discontinued about 11 years. Despite its limitations, Windows users still tend to use this file based on its open source ease of use and generic nature, thus, making its use so popular that most users are unwilling to switch to more modern but less generic file types. Since some AVI legacy compression formats have never been transcoded for the Mac or use beyond OS 9 or OS X PPC platforms, it is often important to know what specific compression formats are contained in the AVI file to know which codecs to add to your system and which not to add in order to avoid possible codec conflicts.
    You can use many different converters to convert AVI files to iMovie edit compatible files. Most third-party apps contain their own buit-in codecs which do not relay on the Mac codec component configuration. Free ones, like HandBrake, usually have limited conversion capabilities while those that have more varied outputs are usually commercial in nature and will cost you additional cash. QT 7 Pro or the free MPEG Streamclip app allow you to access you own system's component configuration and use any available codec component like DV, AIC, MPEG-4, H.264, Photo JPEG, etc.—all of which are iMovie compatible for editing purposes—but only after making the AVI file QT 7 player compatible.
    In order to determine what compression formats wewre used in your AVI files you can
    1) Try checking the Finder "Info" window,
    2) Use the "Inspector", "Media Info", or "Properties" window of any player app that will open the file, or
    3) Use a general media utility app like "MediaInfo" to read the file characteristics.

  • How can I convert imovie into photo's

    How can I convert imovie into photo's

    For iMovie 11, you will need to download a free tool called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. (Google it). This is a very handy tool to have if you make videos.
    In iMovie, select the clip that contains the frame that you want. Right-click on the clip and select Reveal in Finder.
    You should see the clip highlighted in the Finder. Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip. Move the playhead to the frame you want. Then click FILE/EXPORT FRAME. You can choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG.

  • How can I convert a Slideshow to an .m4v file?

    I am trying to convert a slideshow, with audio, created with iDVD to a movie file to transfer into iMovie to be able to post on iWeb. How can I convert to an .m4v file?

    You'll have to rip the iDVD disk that you burned with HandBreak or similar app and then import the resulting movie file into iMovie.

  • How can I convert an M4A file to an MP3 version?

    How can I convert an M4A file to an MP3 version?

    Thanks for your reply but that's not my problem.
    I know that I can burn an M4A file to a CD and then import it back as an MP3, but that's an annoying process and wastes blank CDs.  I thought iTunes had a menu choice to convert a selected file to MP3 format.  I guess that's not true with M4A versions. 
    I will simply buy my music from Amazon from now on and I won't have to deal with this file format and protection nonsense.  I can download music from Amazon in MP3 format as the rest of my music is in.
