How do I "REPLACE" photos in a timeline?

Is there a way to "replace" photos that are currently in a timeline (in iMovie 06)? I looks like I only have the option to delete a current photo in the timeline and the replace it with the new one that I want to put in. There must be some sort of "replace" function somewhere...??? I want to keep all the same transitions, sound track, everything...just replace some photos. The easiest and most efficient way would be to simply "replace" some photos while retaining all the attributes already set. Is this possible?? If so, can you tell me how?

Hi concort - actually, you never said in your original post that you were transferring your pics to a different version of imovie.
From imovie 08 onwards, the application is an entirely different creation - new from the ground up. Indeed it should never have been given the same name.

  • How to recover replaced photos? They exist in iPhoto last import though.

    HHow should I recover the pictures that I lost while replacing them? Though they exist in my iPhoto last import but I am not able to even enlarge them.

    WE need details
    What version of iphoto? Is OS X 10.7.5 correct? What has recently changed? What exactly do you mean by "replacing them"? Exactly step by step how were you doing that?
    Probably the solution is going to be to restore your backup from before you lost your photos by replacing them
    And if they are in "last import" then they are in an event in your library (unless you have been mucking around inside the iphoto library using the finder or "claning" software (which is not needed and should not be used) - select one in last import and show event to see where it is

  • How do I place photos in specific places in the timeline

    I don't want to build my project linearly.  I want to place photos in certain places, but when I try to import any they always go to the start of the timeline.
    How do I put these photos where I want them, so they can become my guideposts in the timeline?

    Hey Mark Burgess,
    I have an article for you about importing photos into your timeline in iMovie and positioning them correctly in your project:
    iMovie '11: Add photos from iPhoto to a project
    After you find the photo you want to use, click the photo to see a preview in the viewer. Then do one of the following to add it to your project:
    Drag it between clips or between a clip and a transition. As you drag, a vertical green line appears anyplace you can add the photo. When you add a photo, by default it is set to remain onscreen for four seconds, but you can change this duration if you want. Also, the Ken Burns effect is applied to the photo, which makes it appear as though the camera is panning across and zooming in on the image. You can modify this effect if you choose. Refer to the “See also” topics below for more information. 
    Drag the photo to a video clip; a green Add (+) symbol appears where you can drop it. From the menu that appears, you can choose to replace the video clip with the photo or insert the photo. If Advanced Tools are turned on, you can add the photo as a picture-in-picture clip, and more.

  • Diappearing photos replaced by an exclamation point within a triangle.  Prior to loading Lion I could put the image number in finder and locate the original file for that photo.  How do I restore photos now?

    I had problems with photos disappearing and being replaced by an exclamation point within a triangle.  I can see the photo in the thumbnail summary but when you click on it, the screen goes black and the exclamation point within a triangle appears along with the info on the original image number (i.e., img_1120.jpg). Prior to loading Lion, I could go to Finder, enter the image number and locate the original file for that photo.  I could then restore it for editing, copying into Print Shop directly, etc.   That no longer works after installing Lion.   How do I restore photos now?  I have 100s of photos that I have been going back to the original files and restoring and I am frantic that I will no longer be able to get to the original files.  Please help!  Thanks

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    How can I replace the out of the box photos with my own when music is playing?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Select any photos you want to share with the Apple TV using the iTunes advanced menu (using iPhoto is the better option but a folder will work). Once all the photos you want are shared, go to settings > screensaver on the Apple TV and choose which of those shared photos you want to use with your screensaver.

  • How can I sync photos from my computer to iPad2?  When I try, it asks the photos will replace the three apps I created

    How can I sync photos from my computer to iPad2?  When I try, it asks the photos replacing three apps I created.

    You're welcome.
    However, can you then organise your photos in i Pad into different categories so that it is easier to access? If that can be done , then can we keep them separately in i Pad so that it can not be deleted when we Sync next time around?
    Already answered with my previous post, which is not by category but by photo albums or folders or photos.
    Create a parent folder on your computer to store the folders of photos that you want transferred to your iPad only. Select the parent folder under the Photos tab for iPad sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
    To add another folder of photos to your iPad, place the folder of photos in the selected parent folder followed by a sync.
    The named folder of photos in the parent folder will be transferred to your iPad as seperate albums or folders of photos.
    When adding a new folder of photos to the selected parent folder to be transferred to your iPad followed by a sync, the existing folders of photos in the parent folder that are already available on your iPad will not be touched or removed with the next sync to transfer the new folder of photos to your iPad.

  • How do I select a photo from the timeline to apply an effect.

    I am tryiing to select an individual photo on the timeline to apply an effect like a zoom or pan.

    I suspect your answer is for you to right click the video (your slideshow in video .psess format) now on the Premiere Elements 11 Expert workspace Timeline and then select and click on "Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow" command. The command will achieve that and you should be able to move forward with your editing plans.
    The above applies if these are the details of your workflow which I believe to be the case....
    1. In the Elements Organizer 11 Slideshow Editor you put together some photos and used the Slide Show Editor's Cross Dissolve transition in the Slideshow Editor slideshow.
    2. You outputted the slideshow from the Elements Organizer 11 Slide Show Editor using the Output option of Edit with Premiere Elements Editor.
    3. When you do that you will find in Project Assets, a folder with the projects assets as well as one copy of the slideshow as a video in .psess format. There will also be a copy of the .psess video on the Timeline.
    4. When you use that route, the Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow command is available to you in order for you to make additional significant edits to the slideshow before a burn to.
    If you use any of the Slide Show Editor options to create the wmv version of the slideshow (Burn to Disc or Save As A File Movie wmv), the file on the Timeline will be a whole video in wmv format. That cannot be broken apart with the Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow command.
    Please review my assumptions and speculations and let us know if the answer that I provided was appropriate under the circumstances.
    If not, lots more details please.
    Thanks.

  • How to replace a clip in timeline whilst maintaining in/out points

    Hi
    I've been working on editing some interview footage in FCPX. I have a bunch of clips put together in the timeline. Now I wanted to do some editing to the audio, which I did in Audacity. I re-imported the fixed audio and synced it with the original video clip. Now I want to replace the old clip in the timeline with the new clip with fixed audio. The problem is that when I do a replace, it inserts the whole of the new clip. Can I get it to match my existing in/out points?
    Yes I'm new to this.
    Thanks very much

    Thanks Tom. I actually figured a way to do what I wanted. In the timeline I right clicked the clip I wanted to replace, choose open in timeline, then you can just drag and replace the entire clip but it keeps the in/outs. I was sure you could do it somewhere!

  • How can I add photos to a video without interrupting the sound of the original video?

    In PE11, How can I add photos to a video without interrupting the sound of the original video?

    RLHeflin
    Thanks for getting your details posted. Good job.
    You further explained
    I am simply wanting to “overlay” a new visual element without disturbing the underlying audio.
    A classical way to do a Premiere Elements Overlay is to hold down the Ctrl key of the computer main keyboard and drag the new clip over the area of the one you want to replace on the Timeline. That should not do anything but replace one portion of the video on the Timeline. No change in duration video or audio track if you are dealing with video linked to audio.
    If you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, I am envising a scenario where you want to add to (not replace) some Timeline content.
    A just in case note, if you have video on Video 1 and 2 and the video in 2 does not have transparent areas in it, then all you will see is the Video 2 content. I believe that Hunt eluded to that concept as a possible technique for what you might be doing.
    Another just in case, if you have not seen the following Adobe documentation on arranging clips, you might be interested in the following link

  • How can I move photos from one website to another website?

    I can't seem to get how to move my photos and pictures I find on the web to another website or my blog. Uupload, download ...it's all Greece to me. No offense intended.

    Are your photos in iPhoto or are they stored in folder on your iMac?
    Firstly, the two Macs need to be connected, either via ethernet or wirelessly, on the same network.
    The same can be achieved by copying the photos from your iMac to an external hard drive and then to your MBP.
    You can copy the entire iPhoto library over to your MacBook Pro and replace the existing iPhoto library in the Pictures folder. (Do you have photos in the iPhoto Library on your MBP?)
    It is also possible to have more than one iPhoto Library, by giving the library on the iMac a new name, and then copying it over.

  • How do I move photos transferred from another phone to photo stream?

    I transferred photos from my old phone when I got my iPhone.  How do I transfer those photos to the photo stream?  Incidently, I discovered by accident that I could do so by using the Weather Channel app.  You can set a backround photo from the camera roll.  If you end up replacing that photo for another, bam the replaced photo goes into the photo stream.  I was just wondering if there was an easier way...

    Good afternoon CWFlink.
    I am a fan of the VZ Navigator myself, and all of the great features of this application!  Is the Palm Pre 2 on the same number as the Palm Pre Plus?  If yes, you can synchronize your Favorites through our website at the following link: VZ Navigator  
    You will sign in using your My Verizon login information, and sync the Settings and Favorites to your new device.  However, if your Favorites are on a different mobile number, you will have to manually enter in the information/ settings.  I still encourage you to use the website to set everything up as you like, in case you need to change devices in the future.
    I trust this information is helpful.  
    Thank you,

  • How can I use photos in FCEHD?

    How can I use photos in FCEHD? (I'm new to the thing - done just one video project so far).
    When I imported photos from Aperture (first into the folder on desktop, and then from desktop to the Browser in FCEHD3.5, the photos have a black bar/a gray space above and below, and they appear too wide a bit on the right side, as if coming out of the Canvas'frame.
    Is it a way to fit them into the 4:3 format, so they fit the whole screen (BTW - what view I should have set for Viewer and Canvas? A 100% or "Fit The Screen" view?).
    Also: Is there a way to enter the same Transition in between all of my photos in the Timeline? (if so - how?)

    Re the Canvas window ... before exporting your sequence, rendering, etc it should be set to Fit to Window, this can avoid problems
    In FCE you can't set your own default transition. It is always the Cross Dissolve. If that is the one you want to use, when you drop your pics onto the timeline you can drag them over to Overwrite with Transition or hit Shift-F10. If you want to use multiple occurances of another trans, apply it once, double click to put it in the Viewer then just drop that down onto your clips
    I haven't used Aperture but I think that how they appear in the timeline depends upon the size they are created in. Search this forum, there is plenty of info about that. Generally Final Cut sizes the pics to fit into your video sequence. Put a pic in the timeline, click it, select Edit>Remove Attributes and from the submenu select Motion, see what happens
