How do I separate a video from an audio track?

I imported an edited .AVI file into iMovie HD. I want to reedit it, but am a complete novice. I would like to realign and edit certain audio in that file with reedited video (sorta basic editing I guess). When I drag clips into the Timeline Viewer it seems that the video and audio are one or at least inseparable. I have no idea how, or if I can, separate the audio track from the video track. Could someone please lend some guidance. Thanks very much.

TexanMac,
If a clip is in the timeline you can choose Advance>Extract Audio. That will place a copy of the clips audio in one of the two audio tracks.
From there you can do what you want with it.

  • [SOLVED] How to Create OGG Theora Video From an Audio Track + 1 image

    Does anyone know how to create an OGG Theora video (.ogv) from an audio track and one still image. I just want one video frame to repeat until the audio file is finished playing. Make sense? Any help would be appreciated, and if possible I'd love to do it with ffmpeg2theora. Thanks!

    I've tested it w/ 'ffmpeg -loop_input -f image2 -i image.jpg -i sound.mp3 blah.avi' and the output works w/ mplayer but I had issues w/ .ogg and .ogv output.
    In case vlc and gstreamer won't do, check out http://v2v.cc/~j/ffmpeg2theora/

    how can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

    First, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable the Advanced Tools.
    Import the video clip into an iMovie Event. When you get ready to use it in an iMovie Project, select the clip in the Event and drag & drop it on top of a video or photo clip in the project at the place where you want it to begin. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Audio Only.

    How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream in iCloud?
    Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices."

  • We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

    We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
    Thanks!

    It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
    The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

  • 1. How do I separate my library from my kids'? We have different itunes accounts, 1 computer.

    How do I separate my library from my kids'?  We have different iTunes accounts and log in and out when we sync our various devices, all on one Windows 8 (new to us) computer.  All I want is to plug my devices in and sync ONLY my songs!  I've been managing to manually manage and check and uncheck songs, but it's such a pain and that doesn't always work anyway.  It is as if there are more than 2 locations for my music and I just want them all to show up in my own library.  Does that make sense?  Please help.

    Stop manually managing content, that is simply not smart or efficient.
    Create playlists with the desired content, sync those playlists to the device. iTunes remembers what to sync to each device.
    If you really want to split the library, that can be done but it will be a time consuming and entirely manual process.

  • How do I delete pics/videos from my iPhone 4

    How do I delete pics/videos from my iPhone 4 if it is not even able to do a restore/backup? A couple days ago I received an alert on my phone that said something like, "You cannot make or receive calls. Connect to iTunes to restore." I connected to iTunes and backed up the phone then started the restore. Before the restore could begin it ended the process and said, "Something is wrong with your iPhone please contact support, Apple Store etc". The Apple Store could not even complete a restore. I have since got a new iPhone but, I want to sell the old phone and I am afraid all my info/pics can be retrieved. Is there any other way to delete all of my pics, videos etc?

    There are a variety of file formats for storing and sending video. You will probably want to install VLC, which handles most open formats. RealPlayer is used on their proprietary format.
