How do I export a selected still from my iMovie?

In iMovie I have selected frames of salsa dance practice from my movie clips and now want to be able to export these stills into Photoshop or to e-mail them. Please can you help me?

iMovie quit on me several times as I was doing final edits on a movie I'd been working on for 20 hours over the past 3 days... It literally vanished from the list and isn't even in the finder (as if it never existed!) ... Every other film on the Project Library, etc. has stayed in place, even bits of newer stuff I had imported more recently to start work on.... And as I know iMovie self-saves constantly, I would expect slightly earlier versions of it still to be there... but, NO!, it seems to have utterly erased itself! How on earth do I retrieve my evaporated movie?? There must be a ghost trace of it somewhere! Please help! I put my soul into creating this film and feel heartbroken if it is lost for good. Something about the process cannot be repeated. Many thanks.

  • How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere without it changing into a jpg?

    How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere (PSE, or desktop) without it changing into a jpg???

    See if any of this info will help:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.  3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    Click to view full size
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full size
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu).  This way you get the best of both worlds.

  • How do I export an iPhoto slideshow from my iMac to my iBook?

    How do I export an iPhoto slideshow from my iMac to my iBook?

    For the slideshow in the form of an Quicktime movie just export the slideshow via the export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window
    and select the size to be created
    If you want to have the slideshow in your iBook's iPhoto Library as it is in your iMac's library you'll need to copy the entire library from your iMac to your iBook. 
    A 3rd option is to export the photos used in the slideshow to a folder on the Desktop, copy that folder to the iBook, import into the iBooks library and recreate the slideshow.

  • How do I export words and definitions from the glossary widget in C7?

    How do I export words and definitions from the glossary widget as XML? I need to use the same glossary in several projects. When I copy and paste the widget to a different project about 1/2 of the definitions disappear. Figured I would try exporting the words then importing them back in new glossaries in each project. Using 7 on a Mac.

    Yes i read, and the answer to the main question is still the same, you cannot export, you just can import definitions if you previously have structured them into an xml file. So, first of all it would be useful to warn the user to ALWAYS start from an xml file BEFORE starting populating the glossary. Furthermore, not all users are supposed to manage easily an xml editing, and the widget itself has been programmed to insert the definitions with a simple method, so it would be necessary also to have an instrument to export to xml for importing purpose. Storyline has the same lack, you cannot move glossary from one project to another but you are forced to start from an old project or insert the glossary itself into a master project. You will agree with me that an xml export feature is not something so difficult to add for the widget. In my personal example, i added about 200 definitions, then i discovered that the glossary of captivate 7 does not work well in html5, the new one in captivate 8 is little bit better, but still not working on chrome (at least on ipad it shows, but you cannot show a button over it since it goes always on the top of everything, so at the moment i inserted a big transparent square behind it to close everyting like a lightbox). This widget is still very buggy and need to be improved.

    I dont see an Animated codec option

    Hi Nick
    Believe me I STARTED there.
    I wouldnt post this message if I didnt try there first.
    I do not see Animated GIF as a codec option.
    Please walk me through the step by step process of how you got this.
    Because it is not as obvious as you're making it out to be.
    Further more perhaps a certain format has to be selected for Animated GIF options to appear?
    YES I AM ON CC version too. thanks!

  • How to get the default selection color from JTable

    Hi, there,
    I have a question for how to get the default selection color from JTable. I am currently implementing the customized table cell renderer, but I do want to set the selection color in the table exactly the same of default table cell renderer. The JTable.getSelectionBackgroup() did not works for me, it returned dark blue which made the text in the table unreadable. Anyone know how to get the window's default selection color?
    Thanks,
    -Jenny

    The windows default selection color is dark blue. Try selecting any text on this page. The difference is that the text gets changed to a white font so you can actually see the text.
    If you don't like the default colors that Java uses then use the UIManager to change the defaults. The following program shows all the properties controlled by the UIManager:

    Any of the properties can be changed for the entire application by using:
    UIManager.put( "propertyName", value );

    How do I download only selected audiobooks from iTunes to my iPod.? I don't want to download the whole library..i have an iPod classic and Mac laptop with the latest ios.

    If you check songs, simply sync the entire library.
    But I highly recommend (and it is far simpler) to create a playlist (or multiple playlists) and select only that playlist to sync.
    Leave everything checked.
    Then simply add/remove from these playlists and sync away.

  • I am reformatting and rebuilding my Win 7 computer.  How do I export all the settings from iTunes so I can import them into my new install?

    I need to rebuild my computer which has iTunes synced with my iPhone and iPad.  How do I export all the settings from iTunes so I can import them into the new install and not have to go through all the setup again?  My music library is my own and on a NAS drive so not going to lose it.  I am mainly concerned about setup parameters.  Thank you for any assistance.

    There's nothing to export.
    The iTunesLibrary.itl file contains all the settings, playlists, and playcounts.
    Copy or backup all your important files including the ENTIRE iTunes folder, then restore all your data including the ENTIRE iTunes folder once the system is formatted and rebuilt/reloaded.

    Hello luismezar
    The easiest way to do that is to move the entire iTunes Folder using an external hard drive. Check out the article below for the steps to move your iTunes library to your new MacBook Air.

  • How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone? I synced the device and noticed that some photos and some movies from iPhoto on my laptop were not transferred to my iPhone.

    How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone?  I synced the devices and noticed that some photos and movies on my laptop iPhoto were not transferred to my iPhone?

    I am not sure, which answer you found - so just in case:
    If you sync your iPhone with the iPhoto library, the photos will only stay on the iPhone until the next sync and they are not in the Camera Roll. If you transfer using the Photo Stream, they will only be vidsible in the stream, until they are replaced in iCloud by newer content.
    So, if you want to transfer the photos permanently, save them to the Camera Roll.

  • How can I export 1920x1080 Mp4 directly from FCP

    How can I export 1920x1080 Mp4 directly from FCP

    Thanks Russ.
    I wasn't thinking about the Apple Devices so much as the Master File set to Audio & Video which produces a .mov file.
    I have normally used the Master File to export my videos but will experiment in future with "Computer".
    I've taken a closer look with VideoSpec and notice that the data rate of the .mov file is about 70% of the .mp4 and the file size is correspondingly smaller.
    The export/render time of the .mov is also somewhat quicker.
