How do I relink iTunes source files to Projects in iMovie 11

I moved my iTunes library and all the songs in my iMovie Projects unlinked and will not play. How can I relink those files?

Export to DV Stream and then use the .dv file with any version of iMovie.

How do i create one source file that feeds two users on the same pro book?

how do i create one source file/folder of photos that feeds two users on the same pro book?

Well you can do exactly the same with a folder of photos, just put in the Users/Shared folder.
Iphoto is a mite more complex than this. It's a database and so there's a bit more involved.
For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

[JS][CS3]how to get refrence for source file

Hi All
I am new and learning javascript Gradually Could any one help on this as i do have a code for load style but don't know how to get refrence for "source file" and "targetDoc"
targetDoc.importStyles(charImport, sourceFile, clashPolicy);
targetDoc.importStyles(paraImport, sourceFile, clashPolicy);
Can any one figure it out
Many Thanks

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, could you please elaborate?
Do you want to load all the styles from one document into all 100 documents, or do you want all the styles from the 100 documents into 1 document or what is the goal?
The following will let you choose a folder of files, open each of the files in it and import the styles from source document. It is not a complete script, make sure to test and modify before running on anything else than test files :-)
var MyFolderWithFiles = Folder.selectDialog ("Choose a folder");
var sourceFile = File.openDialog("Choose the styles source");
var myFiles = MyFolderWithFiles.getFiles("*.indd");
for(i = 0; i < myFiles.length; i++) {
    theFile = myFiles[i];
    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
    var targetDoc = app.open(theFile, true);
    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;
    targetDoc.importStyles(ImportFormat.CHARACTER_STYLES_FORMAT, sourceFile, GlobalClashResolutionStrategy.LOAD_ALL_WITH_OVERWRITE);
    targetDoc.importStyles(ImportFormat.PARAGRAPH_STYLES_FORMAT, sourceFile, GlobalClashResolutionStrategy.LOAD_ALL_WITH_OVERWRITE);
    targetDoc.close(SaveOptions.YES);

When using Multicam in CS6 how do I choose which source file the audio comes from?

I've noticed when using the Multi-cam window to create edits, the audio does not change when I select the different video sources. How do I select which source file the audio comes from?

It doesn't make sense why the multicam source sequence only uses one track of audio. Was this by design? The issue with this as in my situation (and because I didn't know this) I recorded all my source videos with the music tracks on the right side which is what I'm using to cut my video with. Not being able to hear this while I'm cutting is really frustrating. There's a reason I separate dialog on the left side and music on the right. There should at a minimum be an option while setting up the multicam to choose more audio options. Even in the audio clip option settings, those don't seem to work when a clip is put into a multicam source sequence.
The other issue is when you bring in the audio after the fact or even before, there's no way to sync timecode with audio to the multicam sequence. When I create the Multicam source sequences in my project bin, I choose sync with timecode, not in points, because the record decks I'm using are all locked with a TC gen during the shoot.
Maybe I'm missing something, but there seems to be either a bug with multicam or a design flaw. Even in the help documentation, it states multiple audio tracks can be brought in with the multicam sequence, but only track one is enabled by default. I've never been able to have the MC sequence bring in more than one track of audio no matter what the audio settings are.

How do I copy my video files from iPhoto to iMovie. The two hour wait to view all in iMovie puts the kibosh on my edit time.

How do I copy my video files from iPhoto to iMovie? The two + hour wait for thumb nails and hour long wait looking for the right videos kills the time I have to edit.

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://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
(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.
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, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
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 to import Word or Excel files in Project 2013.

I am facing a problem in Microsoft Project 2013. I am trying to insert a word or an excel file into Project 2013. But for each file,
an import wizard appears and after trying all the possibilities, I am unable to finish it. Please help me out and tell me how to import Word or Excel file in Project 2013.

Parulg --
From your description, it sounds like you are trying to attach a Word or Excel document to a project, or to insert the Word or Excel document into the project. If that is the case, you actually need to attach the Word or Excel document to a task in
the project. There are several ways to do this, but in either case you first need to open the project to which you want to attach the Word or Excel document. You can then use one of several methods, which are:
Click the View tab to display the View ribbon. In the Data section of the View ribbon, click the Tables pick list button and select the More Tables option. In the More Tables dialog, select the Hyperlink table and then click the Apply button.
For any task in the project, enter the hyperlink to the Word or Excel document in the Hyperlink column for that task.
Double-click a task and then click the Notes tab. On the Notes page of the Task Information dialog, click the Insert Object button. In the Insert Object dialog, select the Create from File option and then use the Browse button to navigate to
the folder containing the Word or Excel document. In the Browse dialog, select the Word or Excel document and click the Insert button. In the Insert Object dialog, select the Display As Icon checkbox. You can also select the Link checkbox if you
want to create a shortcut to the document rather than embedding the document in your Project file. Click the OK button when finished.
Just a couple of ideas based on my assumption about what you are trying to do. Please let us know if my assumption is wrong. Hope this helps.

I want to break up my hour long video in iMovie 11 into smaller 15 minute segements to upload to youtube. How can i put EDITED VIDEO in new projects in iMovie?

I want to break up my hour long video in iMovie 11 into smaller 15 minute segements to upload to youtube. How can i put EDITED VIDEO in new projects in iMovie? (each 15 minute segment to iMovie)

In iMovie's Project Library view (where all your projects are listed), click on the name of your project (don't double-click to open it, just single click to highlight it).
From the Menu select File > Duplicate Project. A copy of your project will be placed in the Project Library. It will have the same name as the original, but with a number appended. You can rename it if desired - click on its name twice (not double-click) so that it is highlighted as light blue, then over-type it.
Delete from the duplicate all the clips and other media (for example, photos, music and so forth) that you don't want included in the first of your 15 minute segments. In other words, delete all but the first 15 minutes.
Continue creating duplicates of the original (and rename if necessary). Delete from each duplicate all the unrequired parts for each segment. So, for example, for the 2nd duplicate delete the first quarter (15 minutes) and the 3rd and 4th quarters.
You should end up with 4 duplicates with separate names, each containing the required segment. You will also have kept intact the original one hour movie, which you may wish to use independently of YouTube (maybe for burning a DVD or playback through a Media Player).
Note that duplicating the original project will not take up much extra space on your drive. Projects reference (link to) the associated Event (or Events) in the Event Library - they don't actually contain video as such. The project file also keeps track of titles, transitions, effects, music and so forth that you've added to the project.

How do I relink my video files when the source files are located in an AVCHD folder structure?

I am using FCP X 10.1.1 and I was completely done with editing a simple multicam video for a choir track and when I was exporting it it failed. I re-opened FCPX and found that there are several missing files, when I had just been working with them just a second ago! I know about relinking video files, but when I try to locate the source files (knowing where they are), the browser will not let me select ACHD file contents to get at the video files. Also, I cannot open the Library file for my project either.
Here is a snap shot:

If it comes down to it, use clip wrap to carve your .mov files out of the SD. I am confused tho - if you were originally able to import all you needed and still have the original media ? Why can't you do it again to add other clips? To "get in" to your Library, control click on it>show paskage... but do NOT MOVE anything only copy.
Perhaps soeone else can shed light on this?

How can I change the source file so it is direct from external hard drive?

I am trying to make a movie on imovie of a snowboarding trip that I went on, there is around 80 to 100 gig of mp4 movies that will not fit on my computer that I have stored on my external harddrive. I had the movie half finished then found I could do no more as I had no space left in my mac. I had to delete everything and start again but I'm not doing this until I can find a way of changing the source file so I can take them direct from my external hard drive as to not use up all my computers available space. I have moved imovie to my external hard drive but it still tries to read from a movie file on my mac, how can I change that so it will read from a source file on my external hard drive, is it possible?? Can someone help me??

Hi Bengt, Thanks for your input, much appreciated.
I have a WD 1TIG hard drive and are using usb connection, is it possible to use fire wire with these? I have had trouble with a lot of the videos I Imported, once they downloaded the file in the viewer window showed up blank and when I mouse over them it places a picture of another file in the window and wont drag and drop into the movie window, like their corrupted or something? Had to delete just about all of them and start again. Also is it possible to select a bunch of videos in the viewer window as to change the dates to the correct dates? All I have been able to do is "select all" which is no help.

How to handle big java source files in JDEV 10.1.3

Hi,
I have some .java files that are like over 10,000 lines long. I know this is crazy but I didn't write it but I have to maintain it. I really dont feel like refactoring all these big source files right now.
JDeveloper has lots of while-editing features that are probably grinding to a halt on this really big file. My CPU usage shows ~97% whenever I do anything in this file.
Is there some preferences I could set or something I can disable just while editing this big file.
Thanks,
Simon.

The delays between edits and the IDE stalls seemed
about the same with this change in place.Ah... that's sad. It seems like there's another (un-configurable) timer mechanism for background parsing used by the structure pane.
I didn't
really understand what the numbers were controlling
so I didn't try any other values. They control the frequency of a timer that is reset each time you press a key in the code editor. After the number of ms specified in these parameters has elapsed after the last keypress, the code in the editor is parsed. There are two settings, one for short files and one for long files (I forget what the threshold is between short and long).
Maybe it isn't the parser since it still goes to 100%
CPU (just less often) but I can still move the mouse
around the file - no stalling. Here's something I'd find useful to investigate this problem: Run jdeveloper with jdev.exe so that you have a console. When the CPU hits 100%, switch to the console and press Ctrl+Break. Copy the stack dump (maybe take a couple of them) and email them to me (brian dot duff at oracle dot com).
Dropping the structure window is a fairly simple work
around for me. I can live without the structure
window for this file although it is actually most
useful as the file's size, and structure, increases.Yes, I can imagine the structure pane would be quite useful with a mammoth java file like the one you're working with :) Incremental find might be your friend in its absence (Ctrl+E, I think).
If your considering an ER for the structure window
(:-) then how about this too:
"Cursur location within the file should be shown in
the structure window"
This already happens for Ant (build.xml) files but
not for Java files - or at least not for me. The
problem is that it is easy to get lost in a large
file and the navigation assistance should be the same
across all structured file types. Funnily enough, I was talking to one of the developers on the team that builds the infrastructure for the xml based parts of the product (including ant) about these kind of inconsistencies between the XML and Java structure panes just a couple of days ago... :) I'll file a bug for this (rather than an ER), since it's a UI inconsistency.
Thanks,
Brian

How do i stop iTunes duplicating files?

I have read the past years posts; I do believe they answer this question.
I deleted all the giga bites of duplicate files in the iTunes directory - this took about 5 hours. I then selected edit -> preferences -> advanced and turned off 'keep itunes media folder organised' and 'Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library'. I then - heroically - added in the user folder to itunes and let it run for 15 minutes. Itunes has re-created the duplicates. I'm very unhappy (but am not expecting you to help me with this). But, can you tell me how i stop itunes duplicating all my files when i add in the root folder to iTunes? Please.
More details. When i add the music into iTunes, the files i saved were all the full music title. Itunes duplicates these in two ways. When it simply doubles the number of files, it does so by concatenating the artist's name to the start of the track name separating it from the track name with a '-' and truncating the track name if required. When it triplicates the file name it adds a 1 to the end of the concatenated file name.
I'd really appreciate some help on this, even it it is simply pointing me towards an answer elsewhere on the web. Thank you very much!

The behavior by which iTunes does or does not re-add files it is given is a bit confusing. If the files are located outside the iTunes Media folder, and the library version has been edited since they were added, iTunes will create a new one.
In any case, simply re-adding the whole root folder is asking for trouble.

HT1349 Hello, how to move the iTunes master file from C drive to an external drive and them iTunes stick with the external drive after on an on going basic?

My desktop C drive is full HD of 1 TB, I would like to move the current iTunes master file to an external 4TB drive and then iTunes stick with the external drive
Could this be done, if yes how to do it?
Thank you for your help
Henri

If it's the same as with a PC, the procedure would be to:
(a) Plug in the new external drive,
(b) Set your iTunes preferences such that the iTunes Music Folder is on the new drive,
(c) Use the iTunes "Consolidate Library" utility to copy your library to the new location.
(d) When the transfer is complete, check "Get Info" on some songs to verify their location.
The original files will remain on the old drive, so you'll have a way to recover should there be a problem. You may need to manually copy any iPhone/Touch Apps to the new drive since I'm not sure those are transferred with the Consolidate utility.
