How do I save an event as a separate clip?

I'm sure the solution is obvious to everyone but me, but I'm too frustrated to think straight. I had all my video tapes put on DVDs (mpeg 4 format). Each tape is a single mpeg file, so there are many separate (and unrelated) scenes in a single file. I've put a file into iMovie '11 as an m4v file and I've separated the scenes into separate events.
Now, I want to save each event to disk so I can better organize and find them when I put together projects. I can't seem to figure out how to do that. I'd appreciate any help.

iMovie's Event Library is meant to do just that - allow you to organize your clips just as you have.
As you create a new Porject, just drag the Events you want to use into it. Each Event can be used in as many different Projects as you like.

iMovie has already done that for you. All your Events are collected in your home a folder called iMovie Events located in your home Movies folder.
If you do want to create a separate file for each Event you could do so by first creating a Project and then use the Share>Export to output it to a movie file. But, by doing so, you basically duplicating what iMovie has already done.

How do I save albums, events in tact from iPhoto to external drive to comply with iCloud limits? Thx

How do I save albums, events in tact from iPhoto to external drive to comply with iClouds limits? (iMac Lion, need to remove 280gb of photos>

Not sure if I understand correctly?
Do you want to move 280 GB of photos from iPhoto on your Mac to an external hard drive?
If that is the case, iCloud has nothing to do with it. You can move your iPhoto library to an external drive to free up space on your internal drive.

HT1229 How I can save my EVENTS of IPhoto , from my old Mac , in my external disc to transfer it into my new Mac

Hi, i need help !
I need to save All my EVENTS of iPhoto in my external hard disk, to transfer the EVENTS to my new Mac .
Please help! When I try to do it the name as I organice it disappear.
How can I do it?

You need to transfer your iPhoto Library intact as a single entity - Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

How do I save files to time capsule separate from the back up files

I have the time capsule set up; the wifi works great with all devices and it backed up my MacBook a few times without incident. After that I exported portions of my iPhoto library to files I set up on the time capsule and since then I get an error message when time machine attempts to back up my Mac. The error message reads "the back up disk image "/volume/time capsule-1/1234.sparsebundle" is already in use". I have since deleted the files with the exported pics from iPhoto believing that was the issue...but the error message still pops up when time machine tries to back up to time capsule. Is it not possible to use the time capsule as an external drive in addition to the back up disk? I'd like to store old pictures from iPhoto on the time capsule and delete the pictures from my MacBook.

Moving the image files is not related to the the error that you see. Lion...and Mountain Lion....has bugs.
Fix the "file in use" error first, then move the files that you want over to the Time Capsule disk.

There is no idea to save all categories log.
It's recommend you ask in Official Scripting Guys forum for further help:

Imported old family video, I seperated different events and named each event, how can I save event to put together in a menu like family, vacation, christmas to make a DVD

I imported 5 1 hour old video in Final Cut Pro X. I spent all day seperating clips with Start and end then naming each clip in properties..
Sorry, but I don't understand what "5 1 hour video" means.
I do understand that you have a lot of clips that you want to group by various subjects, like vacation, etc. That's a perfect job for keywords, which perhaps is what you used when you named them?
If you did use keywords, go to that TL Index and click Tag at the top and then the keyword icon at the bottom. It should give you a list of only clips in that category. Select clip from the menu and it should highlight them. You could then copy and paste them to a new project for export. Repeat as necessary.
If you're going to do a lot of these, I'd suggest doing this from the event browser, applying keywords and then the clips into separate projects. But there are always more than one way to do things, and to each his/her own.
Again, I don't have any idea how long your footage is and whether it is even possible (or desirable) to fit it on to a single DVD. I mentioned iDVD because of its menu and sub menu capabilities. You will need another app like Compressor to do the chapter makers (unless Apple updates FCP before you finish your project and adds that capability. That would be nice,)
Good luck.

My Calendar on my iPhone won't allow me to save any events. It says "cannot save event" does anyone know how to fix this issue?

After updating my phone earlier this month to the 5.1 software my calendar won't let me save any events. It displays "Cannot save event" I have tried googling the error and I have tried restarting the app, restarting my phone and even cutting the calendar off and back on....nothing has worked. Any other suggestions???

Select the drive and Finder > Get info and at the bottom "ignore permissions on this volume"
You can copy the files, but the ownership on the files still belongs to the other user account, once your done copying, then perform a #6 Reset Users Permissions and that will set all the ownership to that account.
..Step by Step to fix your Mac
Another method is to copy the entire folder, then change it's permissions.

How do I get an EVENT saved on a flash drive?

I have exported my projects and imported them again to make them events so they could all be put together for one long video. When I play it back, it plays perfectly just as I wanted it to. The problem now, is that I don't know how I can save it to a flash drive. :/ Any help would be great!

Just create a new project and select the whole video clips in that event to this project for output.
How to select the whole video clips: Press Shift + right click on one video clip and choose the option: Select Entire Clip.
Hope it helps. Note: the output must be in Project but not Event.

my friend shared a video with me on icloud photo sharing and then she deleted it from her camera roll, how do I save it???(very urgent)

DVDs are encoded into MPEG2, which iMovie cannot edit. So you need to convert the DVD back to something else. For highest quality, I recommend that you convert the DVD to Apple Intermediate Codec. There is a free tool called MPEG Streamclip that will do this. You will also need to install the Apple QuickTIme MPEG2 Playback Component.
Here are the details.
1) Download and install the Apple MPEG2 QuickTime Component ($20) - available online from Apple.
2) Download and install MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free).
3) Start MPEG Streamclip
4) Insert your DVD into your Mac. If DVD Player or Front Row starts automatically quit those.
5) Open a Finder window. Navigate to your DVD to the Video_TS folder.
6) Drag the .VOB files from the Video_TS folder and drop then into MPEG Streamclip.
7) If MPEG Streamclip offers to fix timecode breaks, say yes.
8) Use FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME to convert the files to Apple Intermediate Codec (or h.264 if you prefer)
9a) Optional: You can deinterlace your footage in this step, if you like
9b) optional: If you know the date and or time of the footage, name your file
clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss
(let mpeg streamclip provide the extension). This will provide metadata that iMovie will use to put the event in the right year and month.
9c) Optional: If you don't want to make one huge clip out of your DVD, you can make smaller clips by using MPEG Streamclip. Move the cursor to the "in" point of the clip, and press i. Move the cursor to the "Out" point of the clip, and press o. Then do steps 8 through 10 and repeat until you have done this for all clips you want.
10) Save the resulting file in a place where you can find it, like your Desktop.
11) Open iMovie.
12) In iMovie, choose FILE/IMPORT/From File and choose the file you saved in steps 8, 9, 10.
13) iMovie will generate thumbnails and you can edit.

How do I save a file to a server using flex and coldfusion?

How do I save a file to a server using flex and coldfusion?
On the CF side I might need to use this:
<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="Filedata"
destination="#expandpath('..\somepath)#"
nameconflict="overwrite">
And on the flex side I might need to use something like this:
var sendVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
sendVars.action = "upload";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
request.data = sendVars;
request.url = _strUploadScript;
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
_refUploadFile = new FileReference();
_refUploadFile = _arrUploadFiles[_numCurrentUpload].data;
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,
onUploadProgress);
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
onUploadComplete);
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,
onUploadIoError);
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR,
onUploadSecurityError);
_refUploadFile.upload(request, "file", false);
I just don't know how to put it all together in Coldfusion.

How do I save a chart as a jpeg?

How do I save a chart as a jpeg. In excel I right click, "save as picture." Not seeing anything like that in Numbers.

Here is a script dedicated to Numbers.
You will find explanations in French and English at the beginning.
CAUTION :
it requires the installation of a Unix command file which gives us the ability to check if a modifier key is depressed.
During my tests, only shift or fn keys were correctly detected.
Maybe it was because I did my tests in the AppleScript Editor.
I choose the fn key which, as far as I know, is not used to define the area to save.

How do I save photos from email directly into correct album of iphoto?

how can I save photos to the correct album in iphoto directly from email? I've been emailed photos I can't figure out how to save. Thanks!

You can drag a photo from the email window onto the Album in the left hand pane of iPhoto and it will be added to that Album. The photo will be in its own Event but will also be in the Album you dragged it to.
