How do I move a freeze frame from iMovie 11 as a photo into iPhoto?
In prior versions of iMovie, I could isolate a freeze frame or still from the movie clip and then move it somewhere and it would become a regular photo to be manipulated in iPhoto. How do I do that in iMovie 11?
First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
Open MPEG Streamclip.
In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.

Is it possible to move a freeze-frame from an imovie(9.0.2) clip to iphoto?
Yes. You will need to download and install a free app called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5.
In iMovie, locate the video clip that contains the still you want. Right-click on the video clip and select REVEAL IN FINDER. You should see this clip highlighted in the Finder. Drag this video clip into MPEG Streamclip.
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the video frame that you want to make a still from. Click FILE/CREATE FRAME...

How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another?
I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.ok, what you're learning right now is 101 unix, which is good. Unix is a good thing
now: the way unix works, and macos (which uses unix underneath) the files and folders work like a hierarchy.
the start of that tree is /
so, if you were to do:
cd /
(cd means change directory)
it will bring you at the highest branch of the file system.
cd /Users
will bring you to where all the users are.
to see whats in /Users you can use your friend ls command
ls means list files/directories
so:
cd /Users
ls -la
(the -la here means show all (even hidden) and long format (very verbose)) this flag is very optional.
you will see
fred
user2
for example.
if you want to see the desktop of user2 you would change directory to it then list the files.
for example:
cd /Users/user2/Desktop
Note that the files and directory are case sensitive, so, desktop is NOT the same as Desktop, or DESKTOP
ls -la
you should then be able to see everything in users2 desktop
you could have done as well the same thing in smaller steps, for example:
cd /
cd Users
cd user2
cd Desktop
this is the equivalent of cd /Users/user2/Desktop
So, for your file, i don't know where it was, but know that if you log in as user2, it will directly put you in
/Users/user2
which most likely the file you had created from the other user was in /Users/user1
if you copied all the files from /Users/original_user to /Users/secondUser
most likely yes, all your mail, bookmarks etc would be copied over.
so in your case.
sudo chown -R seconduser:staff /Users/secondUser
should work
Remember that if you start a path with the character / it means start from the root of the file system, at the highest top you can ever get.
so
cd /Users/fred
is not the same as
cd Users/fred
unless you were in / already
i know it may be confusing at first but it's actually very logical if you play with it.
to simplify, think of it that / means C:\ on windows
you can't go any higher than C:\ (in a way)
if you're unsure which directory you're currently in, you can always type:
pwd
it will tell you where you are.
for example:
cd /
pwd
this shows /
cd Users
pwd
this now shows /Users
cd /System/Library
pwd will show /System/Library
cd /
cd /Users
cd fred
cd Library
pwd will show /Users/fred/Library
unix can look very scary but it's actually vital and very necessary to do tasks sometimes that would take for ever to do via the windows. This is good learning.
so for the myfile you had created, i can't tell you where it is, at the time you created, if you can do a pwd command you'll know the path,
ls -la (this shows all the files where you are)
if you see myfile in the list
do a pwd
whatever is return, the real location of the file would be:
whatever pwd returned / myfile
I hope that makes sense. -

How do I create a freeze frame from footage and extend that for 5 seconds?
I have a quicktime screen grab movie I've imported, and I want to hold on a certain frame that's at the very beginning of the clip, and then proceed with the movie when the voiceover (separate soundtrack) gets to a certain point.
iMovie 11.
Thanks
dougHi Doug,
Position the playhead/skimmer (vertical red line) at the very beginning of the clip. The playhead should snap to the first frame, provided you have this turned on in the menu item View > Snap to Ends.
Without moving the playhead, right-click (or Control-click) and select Add Freeze Frame from the pop-up menu. The default duration is 4 seconds (although this setting can be changed for individual projects in File > Project Properties). To adjust the duration in the timeline, double-click on the freeze frame to open the Inspector. In the Clip tab you can change the duration by typing in a new time.

How do I make a still frame in iMovie and send it to iPhoto?
How do I take a still frame from a movie clip in iMovie and send it to iPhoto?
The goal is when I export my movie to iDVD, I want to use still clips from my movie as the rotating images. Right now it either plays through the DVD in the rotating part or I can drag pictures from iPhoto into the slots.
Thanks!Have a look at this thread:

How do I export a freeze frame in CS4?
There's no longer an "Export/Frame" menu option in CS4 (as there was in CS3).
How can I export a simple freeze frame from Premiere into another editing program, such as Photoshop?
Thanks.I've torn out half my hair trying to answer the same question. I think I have an answer and it had nothing to do with the many hours I've spent in Adobe's help and Forum to get an answer. I had to figure it out myself.
Here it is: Because CS4 handles HD video, they don't export straight to JPEG. They export to TIFF which is higher resolution than JPEG. That's my guess, anyway. To export a frame grab, go to FILE>EXPORT>MEDIA. On the top right side of the window in the Format box, click the down arrow to open the list and select TIFF. Click Okay.
Another box will open up. This is the Adobe Media Encoder window. Yeah it's new to me too.
The file you are trying to export should show up in the box with all it's wonderful detail including where you want it to go. If you want to change the name of the exported frame, click on the 'Output File' portion of the detail and a 'Save As' window will pop up and you can rename the file. Otherwise, CS4 will give it a generic name for you and you'll have to go find it.
When you get done click 'Okay' and it takes you back to the Media Encoder window. From there click on 'Start Que' and the file gets saved. Click on the upper right X and the Media Encoder window closes. There is no 'Done' or 'Close' button that I can find.
Somehow I got my file to save as a JPEG the first time but I'm unable to duplicate my steps now, so just know that it can be done and be willing to experiment a little from here. If you click on Add, it offers the JPEG format but it's trying to OPEN a file instead of SAVE. I'll have to keep working on that part.
I hope this helps. These turkeys at Adobe should hire me as a troubleshooter and manual writer - I spend a lot of time trying to figure out things they don't document in the manual or help files. As for the Forum - they can stuff that, it's useless. This should be an exquisitely simple task - we all do frame grabs. But they've made it into a monstrous chore. -
How can I export a freeze frame into a JPG or Tiff file?
I would like to export a freeze frame from my Final Cut Ten timeline onto my desktop for transfer. I'm not sure how to do this. It was a lot easier to do in Final Cut Express. Any help please?
Now it's added into the preferences. Put the playhead over the clip you want. Then go to the Share button and you'll see Save Current Frame

How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?
How do I move my itunes account from one country to another? I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England. I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system. I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me. Ideas?
Before you change the country, note the following:
- you must use any remaining store credit on your account
- download all purchased content
- ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
- provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
- content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
- after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
- If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
- If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.
