How can I export a project on an external drive in the latest version of iMovie?

Before the latest release of iMovie I easily managed to export a project on an external usb drive and re-import such project on a different Mac... In the latest iMovie version, however, I cannot see my drive any more..
So, how can I export a project on an external drive in the latest version of iMovie?
Thank you in advance

I'm not sure this is the best way, but you could create a new iMovie Library, move your project to that Library, then close the library. Then move the Library to your USB drive. Then, on the other Mac, in iMovie open the Library.

How can I sort an albums chart by release date on the latest version of iTunes?

The last few days, I've noticed that there is no more the choice to sort an albums chart by release date or name. Is there a way to sort it that way? Thanks.

Click here, back the computer up, install the DVD, and run Software Update twice.

How can transfer images from lightroom to LaCie external drive?

How can i export images from lightroom toLaCie external drive?

Hi welcome!
It's possible that your description of what you want to do is a bit ambiguous.
Are you wanting to move your images from an internal drive to an external drive?
Are you wanitng to actually export images out of Lightroom with the destination being an external drive (a very different propostion to the above option)?
Is there something else that you are actually wanting to do?
Also Lightroom does not hold the images themselves.
Lightroom has a database (called a catalog) that references the location of images that have been imported.

How can I export my project which is a fla. format to a avi. format? I am using FlashPro CC.

How can I export my project which is fla. format to avi. format? I created my project using the "timeline" in FlashPro CC. I would like to have it as a avi. file. Thank you in advance.

File > Export > Export Movie...
That should do the trick! Then convert using Adobe Media Encoder, if desired.

How can I backup my files to an external drive

how can I backup my files to an external drive?? Can't seem to drag files to the external drive icon

Is the drive formatted for the Mac? Is it a new drive? If so it's not formatted properly:
Drive Preparation
1.Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

How do I upgrade my Core2Duo Mini OSX10.4.11 to the latest version of Snow Leopard?

How do I upgrade my Core2Duo Mini OSX10.4.11 to the latest version of Snow Leopard?
I am aware I should upgrade from 1GB to 2GB of RAM. Can I just purchase the Snow Leopard DVD and install from that? Will I be able to run my Microsoft Office 2004 suite? Is it worth doing? I can't run any decent browsers with this old dinosaur.....but I'd rather not cough up $600 clams for a new one....
I have 7GB available on my hard drive.
Thanks in advance for help with this.

You may also want to upgrade the HD or at least move large libraries onto external disks (since a macmini generally does not move like a laptop an external disk is just another desktop item). 7 GB free will be chewed into hard by SL and you should always have 15-20 GB free to allow OSX room to perform normal operations.

How do I sync my 3rd gen ipod touch after installing the latest version of itunes?

Correction: Thank you FoxFifth for the good information. I did find this information earlier before landing here in the support community. I have come to the end and I am uncertain about trying to reset my I-pod touch to the factory settings. I was satisfied with the older version of i-tunes. Can someone direct me how to downgrade i-tunes perhaps?

How do I update my iPhone 3G firmware but not to the latest version?

How do I update my iPhone 3G firmware but not to the latest version?
I currently am running 3.1 but would like to update it to the 4.1 version (not the latest 4.3 version). How do I do this? I have already gone online and downloaded the 4.1 firmware for iPhone 3G but not sure how to install it. I unzipped the file then tried to do the Shift>Update trick but none of the downloaded files could be selected. Am I doing something wrong?

There is no official way to do what you want, that's why the files can't be selected. iOS 4.2.1 is the last officially signed firmware available for your phone. If you want to install any other firmware you'll have to go elsewhere for instructions as such cannot be discussed here, per this forum's terms of use, sorry.

All I can tell you is that I found it incomprehensible and largely unuseable, and have stayed with iMovie 6 ever since.

The current version may be obtained at the App Store. If you have an older version installed, then it should be available in Updates. The new version will not work with Snow Leopard.

How can I transfer my photos to an external drive without using vaults?

In light of what is going on with all the uncertainty over Aperture support in the future, I am trying to be proactive and save my masters/versions to an external hard drive without them still being tied to Aperture. I've been at it for hours with no luck. I can create a new vault but I want a system where I can choose which individual projects I want to download to the external and the ability to go back to the external HD to work on files. Vaults seems to be an all or nothing backup and doesnt allow choosing 1 particular file to work on. Same thing with Time Machine? Is this possible or are all the adjustments I made in the past few years forever tied to Aperture?

Yes i understand that. In fact when ever i import new images i do not save them in the Aperture Library. I save them on my server wich is pretty much the same as an EHD in this respect. There must be a clean way to do this....
I have in mind:
1) Export all your Photos from Aperture to EHD without an loss of Information/tags/RAW ...
2) Import them back but instead of choosing In the Aperture Library choose In their current Location. See Screenshot.
This might be an appropriate solution if you want to keep Aperture for some more months. Otherwise of course you can change step 2) easily by importing them right away in your new application (Photos from Apple or Lightroom...) In other words wait with this step until you definitely switch your app;)

How do I move a project from an external drive back into Imovie

I recently bought an Iomega external hard drive to store documentary movies so that I wouldn't jam up my Imac's free space. However, after I moved an imovie/idvd project to it, and wanted to make changes, I could not move the project back into the Imac's drive. (It also would not burn from the external, giving me a multiplex error) When I tried to move the movie back into Imovie on the Imac it said Quicktime couldn't parse it. I saw various posts about parsing, but not about specifically about moving a project from an external drive. Can anyone offer any suggestions? It seems to me that I should be able to move a project back and forth without that much trouble.

Sounds like you have a DVD format (MPEG-2) and not an iMovie Project file.
The key phrases are "multiplex" and "parse". Both suggest MPEG-2 format when opened in QuickTime. It would also throw an error -2048 message if MPEG-2.
But another issue could be the file format of the external drive. Most ship pre-formatted for the Windows OS's but a Mac user should format using HFS+ (and others). If you didn't format the drive before moving the large iMovie Project onto it it may have become severely fragmented if the external used FAT 16 or FAT 32 (very common) formats. They have a 2 or 4 GB file size limit, respectively and would have made your Project unreadable when moved back and forth.
Use the Disk Utility app to find out the format of your external drive.
