How do I get OS 10.5 iMovies to open in iMovie for 10.7?

I have a MacBook Pro with 10.7.2 and iMovie 9.0.4. I want to open my old iMovie files (iMovie '09), but I can't. I don't have my old laptop; it was stolen, so I can't migrate files. All I have is my drag-and-drop backup. Is there any hope for me?

Another option: Run Appleworks 6 in Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) installed into Parallels in Lion:

How do I get a dvd into iMovie for editing?

I want to edit my teaching videos. They are on DVDs. How do I get them into iMovie as all the tutorials I have seen only speak of loading from a camera?

http://www.fcpbook.com/Video6.html
This should help. Rather than using DV which iMovie doesn't handle well for no earthly reason, you should substitute the Apple Intermediate Codec, which may give you better results.
DVDs are very heavily compressed standard definition media, so converting it will not make it any better.

How do I get a copy of iMovie 9?

I reformatted my iMac hard drive with Lion. I restored from the downloaded version of Lion and therefore do not have iMovie on my system. I had upgraded to iMovie 9 but now it's not available in the App Store nor from iTunes. Does anyone know how I might get a copy of iMovie 9?

Hi
iMovie 9 can mean different things - What do You need ?
iMovie History 08, 09 & 11
NOT AN EVOLUTION FROM Previous versions but a totally new application.
iMovie 08 (v7) 7.1.4 (aug 2007)
A new way of storing project and an event library as well
A totally new product in a pre-release state. Far from a working application.
Lacks even basal functions
No Speed-up or down or reverse
Lot’s of video-formats lacking
No cont. TimeLine - Bad logic
No good for interlaced SD-video from miniDV tape aimed to a DVD release.
(Discarding every second line makes quality as VHS in LP or EP mode = BAD)
NO - Playback via Camera/FW - and this prevents 100% safety-backups and the use of an extra TV/Monitor as real-time Quality control (as in iM 1 to HD6)
Color tools got much BETTER - nearly usable - even sort of a copy function
Direct share to .Mac and YouTube
More Cameras supported even AVCHD (need of Intel CPU)
Do not run on G4 or older - G5 minimum
Need of 1.9 GHz G5-Mac,
(Can run on 1.8GHz G5 iMac if installed on external boot hard disk and speedier Mac - can’t install directly)
Mac OS X.4.9 minimum
QuickTime 7.2 included
Aimed at - speed editing small video projects to be presented on the Internet - NOT DVDs
iMovie 09 (v8) 8.0.6 (jan 2009)
Far better than iMovie 08 but still far from good.
Pic in pic, green screen but rudimentary
Image stabilization - fairly good for amateur use
Speed-up/down and reverse
Bl/W, Old age etc
Still - No Continuos TimeLine
NO - Possibilities to enhance by use of third-part Plug-ins (all investments lost)
NO - Playback via Camera/FW - and this prevents 100% safety-backups and the use of an extra TV/Monitor as real-time Quality control (as in iM 1 to HD6)
Aimed at - speed editing small video projects to be presented on the Internet - NOT DVDs
iMovie 11 (v9) 9.0.x - 9.0.4 (2011 july)
Will be - Intel Only - Snow Leopard minimum Mac OS X.6.3
YES:
Advanced view including a true TimeLine ? Yes but rudimentary (very basic)
True Story-board - where You even can write and prepare space for lacking material that needs to be obtained or re-shoot. YES
Better wave-form presentation of audio and audio tools - Rubber-band - Yes
Trailer creating tool
”Faces” as in iPhoto - NO - but this finds if there are people in some video-clips
Better audio tools. Equalizer and a background audio reducer
More Camera support e.g. 24fps
NO
not 64-bit only
The Playback to Camera via FW - returns ? NO
Full Quality to iDVD - NO - still only half - every second line - Questionable - Some indicates it to be able to loss-less Exports - Has to be proven
Plug-in facility ? - NO
No free text tool
Tool to mask an identity e.g.. band over face or un-sharp area. - NO (could be obtained via Plug-ins in iM HD6 and earlier)
Animation tool - To point on interesting object/player - NO animations refer to a totally different
thing connected to Story-board and insert of ”dummy animations” while building a movie
iMovie 13 (v10) 10.0.x - 9.0. (2013 autum)
If iMovie'09 then You need the iLife'09 boxed CD-version.
Yours Bengt W

How do I get a movie from iMovie 10 to iDVD to burn a disc

How do I get a movie from iMovie 10 to iDVD to burn a disc?

To burn a DVD with iDVD from the latest version of iMovie, you have to export the movie using the Export button and select 480p as the size. Open iDVD and start a new project, then drag that exported movie file into the iDVD menu window, avoiding any drop zones you see.

How do you get timeline view on imovie 08 and speed up a clip on imovie 08

how do you get timeline view on imovie 08 and speed up a clip on imovie 08

Hi
You can not - Nobody else (if not a very selected few at Apple dev.group)
TimeLine was lost in iMovie'08 and 09 and a very simple one re-introduced in iMovie'11
Speed Change - Was omitted in iMovie'08 - and returned in iMovie'09 - BUT has to be used in a certain way - the glider/slide if used - will destroy the audio (a Known BUG - in both iM'09 and iM'11) but use of pre-set fixed no. 25% 50% 100% 200% etc. will work.
Yours - still using iMovie HD6 - and LOVE it - Bengt W

How do I get a movie from iMovie to a dvd?

How do I get a movie from iMovie to a dvd to be able to play it on a dvd-player? Tried exporting it but when I burnt it, it doesn't work on the dvdplayer. There is no idvd on my new macbook pro and I'm new to both mac and iMovie.

Hi
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD

How do I get The ipad locked to run only one application for customers (perhaps a webapp)

how do I get The ipad locked to run only one application for customers (just one web app, or video- instructions, or just safari). What I really want is that my customers to only use one app that has all my services. It is an interactive app so I would not like them to go surfing elsewhere while they are in my store.
Is it possible to do this on the iPad ?

A tech company just set up a wifi network in my house and does not use my existing TC; how do I get it in the network to serve as backup for my iMac? (I don't need it as a wifi access point anymore)

a tech company just set up a wifi network in my house and does not use my existing TC; how do I get it in the network to serve as backup for my iMac? (I don't need it as a wifi access point anymore) thanks

Just bridge the TC and plug it by ethernet into the main router.
Bridge in v5 airport utility.
In v6 it is under network.. change it from DHCP and NAT to Off bridge mode.
Turn off the wireless.

How do i get rid of the charge on my debit card for online backup?

how do i get rid of the charge on my debit card for toshiba online backup? Backup has not been functional for months. I called the customer service number and eventually was transfered to some apartment complex phone number.

Hi there!
You cal to customer services of your bank or credit card and being told as disenroll in Argentina is usually effective.
Another way is Toshiba customer that you want to cancel the service, it is your right.
Because you have hired an online backup service with so many free payment? On the other side is always better physical backup, at least I think so.
Best regards.
