How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie?

How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie? I want to include the m4v movie into another project in iMovie.

When you import DV Stream from tape, iMovie 11 will assume that you are importing raw footage from a camera, rather than a finished movie. It will create a new clip everytime it detects a scene break (the record start/stop button was pressed). These clips will be placed in chronolgical order - not the order they were on the tape.
One way around this is to import the tape into the application that you used to create it. For example, if you used iMovie 6, import the tape back into imovie 6. In iMovie 6, you can export the tape back out using FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME. Choose the DV codec in an MOV container. You can then import this MOV file into iMovie 11 and have everything in the proper order for your finished movie.
Another option is to use FInal Cut Pro X.

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

Terry Woolf
Thanks for the reply.
The link to your prior thread is
Audio
I suspect that the issue of no audio for your .mp4 file goes to your conversion method MXF to .mp4.
Please excuse if I am saying what you already know. When you import your video into Premiere Elements (in your case 12 Mac), a project
preset is established, either by you manually or the project automatically. That project preset contains a description of the project settings
for audio as well as video. Unless you select one of the project presets which are described for use with 5.1 channel, your audio in video audio
imports into a stereo project. It is in the export area that you will find your opportunity to customize (if necessary) the settings for audio.
In the project, if applicable to your situation, you can duplicate an audio channel (See Fill Left or Fill Right under fx Effects/Audio Effects).
Please let me ask this to make sure of the details.
If you import your .mp4 with 2 channel audio (derived from your .mxf convert and dragged to Video Track 1/Audio Track 1) and cannot hear the sound....
a. do you see any evidence for an audio file in the Timeline Audio track 1?
b. if you do, how many wave forms do you see, one or two?
c. if you have the audio meters opened while you are playing back the Timeline content in Edit area, do you see 1 or 2 channels and is
there activity in both.
d. when you import the file into Project Assets, do you observe any conforming activity going on in progress bar in the lower right cover of the workspace...if
so, do you wait for it to go to completion before continuing on?
We could also try deleting the conformed audio in the Media Cache Files Folder to force the program to re-conform the audio. See Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks should show you the location of the Media Cache Files Folder whose contents you will be deleting.
Please review and consider, and then let me know if I targeted your question. If not, please do not hesitate to let me know, and I will rethink my reply based
on your response.
Thank you.

How do I import all my movies from iPhoto to iMovie at once?

I have years of movies in iPhoto and would like to export them to iPhoto all at once. Is there a way to search for all movies and export/import them to iMovie?

Hey there tkeale,
You can access the videos in your iPhoto library the same way you access photos, that way you don't have to go about copying the videos to the desktop from iPhoto and then importing them to iMovie and waste all that hard drive space.
iMovie (2013): Add photos and video clips from iPhoto or Aperture
Add a photo from your iPhoto or Aperture library
In the Libraries list, select your iPhoto or Aperture library.
Do any of the following:
To browse albums: Choose Albums from the pop-up menu at the top of the browser, and then scroll through the thumbnails of the photos in the selected album.
To browse events: Choose Events from the pop-up menu at the top of the browser, and then scroll through the thumbnails of the photos in the selected event.
Events only appear in your iPhoto library.
To browse faces: Choose Faces from the pop-up menu at the top of the browser, and then scroll through the thumbnails of the photos in the selected event.
To browse projects: Choose Projects from the pop-up menu at the top of the browser, and then scroll through the thumbnails of the photos in the selected project.
Projects only appear in your Aperture library.
To find a photo by its filename or keywords: Use the search field at the top of the browser.
Select the photo you want to use to see a preview in the viewer.
Do one of the following:
To insert the photo: Drag it to the timeline between clips or between a clip and a transition.
As you drag, a blue box appears in the timeline, indicating where the photo will appear in the timeline.
To replace a clip with the photo: Drag the photo on top of a clip in the timeline.
As you drag, a white border appears around the clip in the timeline. When you release the mouse button, choose Replace from the menu that appears. The photo replaces the clip in the timeline.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

How can I import a home movie from DVD

I have a home movie on DVD I'd like to get in imovie...can this be done?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion onwards, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

How do you convert movies from a Flip video camera for use in final cut pro?

DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
VisualHub (23.32$)
Drop2DV (free)
Cinematize >60$
Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter

Possibly. Media Go supports a variety of music formats, some of which can be imported in to iTunes and then synced on to an iPhone, however some of its formats cannot be imported in to iTunes.
See http://mediago.sony.com/enu/supported-file-formats/ for a list of formats supported by Media Go. iTunes for Windows supports MP3, AAC, WAV, and can import and convert WMA files as well. However iTunes does not support ATRAC, or FLAC.
Furthermore, if some of your music has been bought from an Internet music store it might be procted by DRM. If so it cannot be imported in to iTunes.
To do the importing you would either drag the music files in to iTunes, or tell iTunes to open them. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347

How to import non-HD movies from old iMovie

Hi there,
guess I am a little bit late for this, but until recently I had still the old iMovie (6 ?) version installed - whereas after migration to Snow Leopard and iMovie 09 (?) the older iMovie version isn't there anymore.
So, how do I import the old movies - not in HD format - into my HD Event Library without unnecessary conversion? It seems that the import via File->Import->iMovie HD Projects is not the right way, as it upscales my smaller format to the Large ("false" HD) format.
Tried to find answers in the forum but without result.
Thanks for any tips!

1. The iPhone can only work with SIMs made (coded) for the iPhone. SIMs from other phones will not work (though an iPhone SIM can work in an older phone).
2. The iPhone doesn't read nor write to the SIM and has no option to import from a SIM.
Best bet (what I did) was obtain the the software Motorola has that will allow you to interact with the Razr (which I use to have). The software they have has their own address book reader to bring contacts into their own proprietary address book on the computer. Once in, it has an export feature (export to .CSV/.TXT file). From there I imported them into Outlook. Then synced with the iPhone and Outlook.
I did all that back when I first bought two iPhones for my wife and I when the first generation iPhone came out.

How to up-convert movies from director 11 to director 12?

How do you up-convert movies from Director 11 to Director 12?

Open the existing D11 file in D12 and follow the prompt/s. The file will now run in D12 and you won't be able to open it in D11. That said, there are very few changes between these 2 versions of Director, with the only reason for a file-version revision being something 3D related (I don't recall exactly what)

Contact iTunes Customer Support, but honestly, there are no returns for iTunes purchases.

If you have iTunes 11 on your Mac then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S, that might make it easier to navigate.
Connect the phone to your Mac and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of the screen there should be a series of tabs which you can use to select what to sync to the phone. If it's an audiobook then it should appear on the Books tab for selecting/syncing, and films will be on the Movies tab. When you've got the audiobook on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app (you might need to tap the '...' tab at the bottom of the Music app to see it).

Hi Sara. Tanks for responding. If I cannot figure this out (I was up

Please advise.
