How do I insert a photo in iMovie 11 without losing the audio?

I'm trying to insert photos into a recording of an interview. I select the photo and insert it into the clip but it only inserts the photo without audio. I want the photo to display while the pserson continues to speak. I wondering if I have to split the clip in order for this to work properly.

• in iM's prefs, switch On the Advanced Tools
• drag the photo into your Project onto the clip
• cursor switches to a green + , select 'cutaway'

How do you convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date

Hi everyone! does anyone know how to convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date? Handbrake, MPEG Streamclip and Evon all replace the original timecode with the date of modification. This is very frustrating when you are trying to keep the chronology right. I know that if you upload the files to iMovie from one device the chronology isn't a problem, but I'm adding video files from a couple of iPhones and a couple of camcorders. any help much appeciated.

How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently? Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my device?

How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently? Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my actual phone? I'm concerned that the sync feature will remove the pictures from the cloud when they are deleted from my phone.
Thanks for the help.

Can I back up iPhoto to the cloud via some apple service (iCloud)
No
or do I need to use something else? If so, any recommendations?
An external hard disk:
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

How do i print from indesign (CS4) landscape without losing the edges.

i'm a PC to MAC newbe. Also moved from CS2 toCS4.
can't for the life of me figure out how to print from indesign in landscape layout without losing the left 2.5 inches of print. having the same trouble with #10 envelopes.
your help would be appreciated!

Usually this problem has to do with choosing the correct size and orientation of paper, both page size and print paper size.
IOW, if you want to print to a #10 envelope, start a new document that is exactly the size of a #10 envelope. Then when you print it, choose a paper size that is exactly the size of a #10 envelope.
What size page are you printing, and what paper size are you choosing when you print it?

Why can I not paste a photo in iMovie08 without disrupting the audio

All i can find in the threads is use iM06 or iM HD. Are you serious? They left this out of the 'latest' release. I dont have iM06. I have a brand new mac. Do I now have to buy iM HD? Please somone help.

Sorry let me clarify. I am trying to drag a photo over exsisting video footage with its original audio. It ends up splitting the video track and it's audio. We used to be able to drag a photo over a video clip without disrupting the video clip's audio essentially 'overlaying' the photo for a nice effect.
it should be working as your described unless the "photo" is a "single" frame copied to the "iMovie" modified clipboard and "pasted" into the video clip. In this case simply save the "frame" as a graphic file (e.g., JPEG) and then drag it in normally from the desktop as you would a photo from iPhoto to automatically turn it into a "still frame" sequence which overlaps your video normally.

How do I insert a photo into Microsoft Word from the new Photos app?

I have Word for Mac 2011 on my Macbook Pro with Retina and am now unable to simply go in and insert a picture into ANY Microsoft program since the update from iPhoto to Photos. I'm an archaeology grad student in the middle of multiple term projects that require countless Figures, almost all of which come from pics I took in the field that are all in Photos. These projects have to be submitted electronically, thus I cannot simply copy and paste everything into Pages (my professors all use PCs). I've found that I can insert an image into Pages and then copy and paste it to Word, but the quality is severely diminished.
Is there some way to change the settings on the Photos app to allow for image insertion? Or do I need to go in and somehow manually copy and re-save every photo into a separate folder outside of the Photos app?

Select a photo in Photos. Press COMMAND-C to copy. Go to your document location where you wish the pic to appear and press COMMAND-V.

Can't add photos to ipod without losing the ones that are already on it

I have a nano (bought about 1 year ago) so am not sure of the generation. I was able to add photos before, but when I tried to add more this morning it erased all the old ones and will only load the current ones. How can I keep all my photos without having them erase everytime I add new ones?
Thanks

you need to have the same computer the same folder where you put your pictures like a folder on your Desktop on a mac or a pc.
But if you wan't to have your pictures on your iPod cache folder select the checkbox below, it's Include Full resolution photos, by clicking that, the photos you'll put on your iPod will have a copy on a folder of your iPod i.e.
When using win xp:
Find your iPod on my computer: "Steve's iPod"-> open it-> go to Photos-> Full Resolution-> then continue opening folders (it's safe) until you see your Photo copies.
It's a great way of moving it from another computer, like just using copy, cut, paste

How do I partition my external hard drive without losing data?

How do I partition my external hard drive without losing the data already on it? I've been using it with Time Machine on my old computer, but want to use it as a regular drag-and-drop type back up on my new computer. Is there any way to basically split the hard drive so I can still access the Time Machine backups on my old computer, but also be able to use it with my new mac? Thanks!

If you reformat the drive all data is lost.
The only way to save the data is to copy it somewhere else during the reformat.
Drag & drop will not backup things correctly.
I suggest you set up partition for each Mac and then point Time Machine to each of the partition for each of the Macs.

How do I insert a picture into iMovie regardless of aspect ratio

When I insert a picture, i either have the choice of cropping the picture or having black bars on the sides. How can I insert a picture into imovie and not be dictated based on the aspect ratio. thanks

Must be one of the wonderful improvements introduced in iMovie 11.
nope, never.
look:
example #1: a 1:1 pic in a 16:9 screen
option A bars l/r
option B cat-off
example #2: a wiiiide screen pic in a 16:9 screen
option A bars t/b
option B catcut off
and you don't want kitty look like that:
(1:1 aspect ratio distorted to make fit onto a 16:9 screen)

I have installed Find My Friends app in my iPhone5 and can anyone tell me how can I insert my photo so that my friends can see me? Thank you.

I have installed Find My Friends app in my iPhone5 and can anyone tell me how can I insert my photo so that my friends can see me? Thank you.

I don't have Find My Friends installed but if I understand correctly, the photos that would display on your friends phones would come from the Contacts on their phone. Here is a previous discussion that may help: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25429023#25429023

When i add a photo in imovie it duplicates the previous photo

When i add a photo in imovie it duplicates the previous photo rather than add the photo i choose to insert? any help please?

I am having this same problem. Did you find a solution?

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter. If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
How large a date change are you putting in? iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time. If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
If that is not the case:
Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
Let me know the results.

How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested. If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library. Not the same as the other methods.
The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.
