How do I open a iMovie 2.0 file in iMovie HD? Does it convert?

How do I open a iMovie 2.0 file in iMovie HD? Does it convert?
I have a movie from iMovie vers. 2.0.1. I want to open it on our new Mac Mini which uses iMovie HD 5.0.2.
Please tell me this is doable. Or can I get a copy of iMovie 2.0 to run it on my new Mac? I want to make copies of the movie by burning a dvd. Pls help.

iMovie 2.0.1 ran in Mac OS 9, not Mac OS X. If I recall, it is necessary to boot your Mac into Mac OS 9 to run it. It won't run in Mac OS 9 Classic running inside Mac OS X. Your Mac cannot boot into Mac OS 9, so you probably can't run iMovie 2.0.1.
You probably wouldn't want to anyway, for versions of iMovie that ran in Mac OS 9 used the OS 9 file name structure, which causes problems for projects converted to Mac OS X.
The simplest solution is to simply import the project.mov file that's inside the iMovie 2 project folder to a new iMovie HD project. (Don't import the iMovie 2 project file, import its .mov file.) Because of the name problem, it's possible this won't work either, but it probably will.
That will deliver the entire iMovie 2 project as a single clip to the iMovie HD project. The clips you had in iMovie 2 won't be editable, but everything will be there and play in the proper order.

  • HT3345 How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC in numbers 09, on a MacBook Air?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    This is actually not true; I support users who are doing this w/ Excel 2011 (v14.2.2+) for Mac and Windows users w/ Excel 2003 & 2007.  Win users are from finance dept, and who have pasword-protected various budget files.  The Mac users are (surprise) "creative" users, who enter pw to unlock and edit these budget files.
    These files are shared from a Mac server (running 10.6.8 server), and I do have an erratic problem where all users have read-only access to these pw-protected Excel files.  The manual work-around has been to copy the troublesome file(s) and confirm users have full access again.  I also do a shuffling of filenames, so that the new, working file has original file name.
    FYI: the Mac server POSIX and ACL permissions are correct, and don't appear to be source of the problem.
    It's easy an SMB file-locking issue or concurrent users trying to edit these files.  I keep reminding them that Excel is not a database!

  • How do I import an Amadeus Pro sound file into iMovie?

    I am fairly new to the Imovie 08 program and have a few questions.
    I've made the moveie and am in the process of editing out what I need and don't need. I have a sound file that I created in Amadeus pro that I need to use as the voice-over for the movie. I just can't figure out how to use that sound file over the movie. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    The sound file must be in a supported audio codec like MP3, AAC, or several others.
    Place the sound file in a drive and a folder where you can leave it while your video project is active. If you move it later by using the finder, iMovie will not know how to find it.
    Now, drag the file into iMovie and drop it on the first clip where you want it to start playing.

    How do you open a Microsoft Publisher (.pub) file using inDesign?

    You don't.
    To get some semblance of the original content into Indesign, you could export the Pub file to PDF, then use PDF2ID, (probably a free trial available out there), to convert the PDF.

    But why if you're running 10.6 do you need to do this? AW works fine in 10.6 with Rosetta.

  • How do I open movies made with older versions of iMovie?

    I have newer iMac with iMovie 10.0.02 and would like to open movies created with an older version of iMovie.  I was informed by the people at the Apple Store this could be done.  Does anyone know how?  In the end I would like to create high def copies that can be viewed on a Mac laptop.

    Hi
    I was informed by the people at the Apple Store this could be done.
    That depends up-on from what old iMovie version.
    - iMovie 1 to HD6 - is one program and it's evolution - Will Not be possibly to open with any other program.
    - iMovie'08 v.7 to iMovie'13 v.10.0.x - is a compleatly other product (wrongly named as iMovie in my opinion) - can open older files from this evolution. (Not from iM 1 - 6)
    So it depends greatly from what version that You mean.
    Please tell.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Can't open Sony HDR-SR8e movie files with iMovie 08

    Has anyone had any success importing movies shot in HD on the Sony SR8e and then importing them into iMovie 08? I can see the files there, but they are all greyed out as if they are not compatible. I've imported them on a seperate PC running windows successfully, transfered the files onto memory stick and put them onto my Mac desktop, however iMovie rejects them if you try and drag them in.
    Everythings upto date, can anyone help?
    Thanks, Neil

    I'd still like to know how to import the files individually as I have loads of existing footage that isn't on the actual camera any more.
    MPEG1 files are playback only compatible with QT. Attempting to add/import such files to iMovie, FCE, or FCP applications would normally automatically convert the video to DV compression and lose the audio content. However, iMovie '08 appears to avoid this problem by refusing to drag 'n drop or import such files in the first place. The normal procedure here would be to open your files in an MPEG based third-party application like MPEG Streamclip (free) and convert the files directly to the DV compression format (keeping the audio) which can then be edited in iMovie, FCE, or FCP.

  • How do I open a pw protected zip file?

    This question appears to be different from similar questions asked because I HAVE the password. I really don't want to download extra safe-cracker's-anonymous software to hack into it. The file just never gives me the option of entering it. I have the zip file, I double-click on it, it gives me an error message. I right-click on it but no options there either. How do I open it such that it gives me a chance to unlock it?
    Appreciate the help. (and yeah, I have no idea if I'm in the right community - sorry about that if I'm in the wrong place)

    The zip file format is not a nice, standardized format. You could have a weird zip file that is technically not bad, but isn't supported by the built-in software on Mac OS X. In some cases, when zip files won't open, I've had success opening them with The Unarchiver, which is available both in the App Store and outside it:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-unarchiver/id425424353?mt=12
    http://unarchiver.c3.cx
    (I don't know if there's a difference in functionality between the two... there could be, but if there is, I am not aware of it.)
    It's also possible the zip file is corrupted, and won't be openable by anything.
