How do you restore an iMovie 8 back to the original format?

First of all I hated iMovie 8 at first... But now I am beginning to enjoy the ease of making movies.. It will be even better when your 3rd party vendors for effect start providing them again... In the mean time I exported an original movie I made to iWeb format- when I go to bring it into iDVD 8 it can read it.. Is there a way to restore my iMovie to a format iDvd 8 can read? Please please don't tell to start over again...
Thanks...

sorry, never seen an Error Message on my single-place home computer asking me to contact a SysAdmin (.. I guess, that would be me...!?)
so, just stabbing in the dark... :
you System is maintained? all updates, rights repaired..?
internal harddrive offers plenty of free disk space (>15GB)?
any network connections?
'network-drives' in use?
sorry, zillions of 'options' ...

How do you restore a MacBook Pro back to the original out of the box state

Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, when you reach step 5, insert its original disk, restart with the C key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install a fresh OS.

How do i restore my wifi setting back to the factory settings? I have changed it somehow :/ and now my wifi will not connect. My Airport is on and showing full strength but will not connect.

Ok, if other devices are connecting but just not your MacBook then let's start troubleshooting the MacBook to possibly find out why.
Please try each of the following, in order, until hopefully resolved:
Note the following are excerpts from an OS X Daily article.
* Turn Airport on & off – You can do this via the Airport menu bar or from the Network Preferences. This is the first thing you should try when troubleshooting Mac wireless problems.
* Make sure Wireless/Airport card software & firmware is up to date – This is usually done just by going to the Software Update menu, if there are any updates available for your Mac or Airport, install them.
* Delete and recreate connection – Try deleting and recreating/reestablishing the wireless connection, sometimes a setting can be corrupted and this may fix it.
* Create a new Network Location – Similar to the above suggestion, try creating a new and different wireless network location to see if it resolves the connection problems.
* Change DHCP auto settings to manual – sometimes there is a problem with the DHCP server, and if you manually set an IP address on the network you can be fine. Remember to set the IP to a high number so it wouldn’t interfere with other DHCP machines. As long as you have the subnet mask, router, and DNS settings configured manually as well, this shouldn’t be a problem.
* Flush the DNS cache – Launch the Terminal and enter the following command onto one full line within the Terminal: dscacheutil -flushcache
* Zap the PRAM – Reboot your Mac and hold Command+Option+P+R during restart until you hear another chime, let the Mac boot as usual.
* Delete Wireless Config files – Delete com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist and com.apple.internetconfig.plist files from ~/Library/Preferences and reboot
* Trash your home directories SystemConfiguration – Remove all files within ~/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and then reboot your Mac.
* Reset your Mac’s System Management Controller (SMC) – For MacBook and MacBook Pro’s: Shutdown the MacBook/Pro, remove the battery, disconnect the power, hold the Power Key for 15 seconds. Replace the battery, reconnect power, and zap the PRAM and wait for 2 chimes before letting the keys go. Let boot as usual.

How do I eliminate the new Facebook "timeline" and go back to the original format

how can I get rid of the new "timeline" on Facebook, and go back to the original format ? I was told how to do it in Chrome, and it worked, but I prefer to us FIREFOX. thanks
I am using the newest Firefox and running Windows 7

You are correct. It is not fair to blame Firefox for something the idiots at Facebook have done. I have not been impressed by all of the "new" features or changes they have made over the short 2 1/2 years I've been on Facebook. This was just the last straw. Too bad I was fooled into thinking that the latest change was fixable. With all the posts I've read expressing hatred of the new Timeline you would think they would have gotten the message. Perhaps they want folks to stop using it. Or perhaps they think that folks will scream for awhile then knuckle under. Just like the politicians, huh? I don't NEED Facebook. Thanks.

I have restored my Ipad 2 back to the original settings, but now I am having trouble downloading all of my apps and updating them. However, if I am connected to my laptop; I can copy the apps back onto my Ipad, but that doesn't solve the update problem. PLEASE HELP!!!

If you have enabled iCloud and PhotoStream, you may be able to find them there.

My ipod is somehow synced to another library, because I plugged the charger to a wall. How can I sync my ipod shuffle back to the original Itunes library without erasing my current data in the Ipod shuffle?

",the owner sold the ipod without clearing the songs and since the songs were not puchased from the itunes store then i believe i now own the songs"
Not true at all.
It does not matter where the songs came from, they are not yours and the previous owner does not own the right to distribute them to others.
The law is the same with downloads and cds and any other medium.

Do you have Microsoft Word installed on your Mac? If so, you can reassign all .doc files to Word by selecting the file in Finder and choosing "File > Get Info" from the menu. In the window that opens look for "Open with" and change the entry to "Microsoft Word".

How can you restore photo stream photos back to Apple TV after accidentally deleting from your iPad

After accidentally deleting photo stream photos on my iPad, this deleted photo stream photos on my Apple TV. How can I restore these photos back to my Apple TV and also to my iPad? Suggestions welcomed

If you have a backup of your iPad prior to the date of deleting your photos, you can find them. Otherwise, you might be able to find them.
If you do have this backup, then you'll have to restore your iPad to that point.
If you had a Mac with iPhoto, then when you connected your iPad, iPhoto would store the photos separately from Photostream.
I despise Photostream. It's turned off everywhere on my system. It is one of the most useless pieces of junk that Apple has foisted on my Mac and iOS. But hey, that's just my opinion.

IMovie crashed, lost project. How do you SAVE in iMovie? Where's the file?

Just spent 4-5 hours building a complicated movie from a year's worth of footage. At some point, iMovie crashed. I think I lost all those hours of creative decision making, since I cannot see the file when I reopen iMovie.
There is no "open" command in the file menu. There is no "save" command in the file menu.
This would imply that Apple was autosaving for me to save me trouble. Hmm. I can save in almost every program I use, and revert, and save versions.
How do you save a project in iMovie? I don't see save in the file menu, as has been the steadfast tradition of Apple applications since I purchased my first Mac in 1984. What in the blazes have you done with SAVE? It is so basic.
Along the same line, where is the project file located on my hard drive? I would like to open it. Since I assume you have been autosaving to somewhere, could you please let me know where my file is saved.
<Edited by Host>

This just appeared to happen to me too. I tried clicking on the file in Movies/iMovie Projects. That didn't work.
Then, I made a copy of the file in a safe place. I noticed it was 2.2 MB, so something had to be in there. Next, I started iMovie and clicked the Project Library arrow. The project was listed there. I opened it and got back most but not all of the work. It lost a lot of my audio changes. Here's the thing. I worked until about midnight, and then left iMovie up and running til noon. You would think it would have autosaved the changes by the time I came back. I suggest making your own copy of the file now and then, just in case.

How do you get Cloud storage to back up the SD Card?

My daughter S3 died and had to be replaced. Lost all the data and apps that were stored on the phone's internal memory. With the replacement phone, I set up the cloud storage for back up offered by Google but it only accessed the data on the phone's main memory and not the separate SD Card that is installed. How do you get the Cloud app to also back up the SD card data?

NDBeartrap, Let's help get your daughter's info back! If the info was backed up the cloud, you would be able to download it back to the device. Can you verify that there is info on the sd card? this can be done by inserting the sd card into a reader w/adapter or phone that is compatible. Please let us know what happens.

HT1694 When I am in my e-mail, how do I get it to go back to the original screen, but still remain in the e-mail?

I am new to the IPAD - I was wondering when I am in my e-mail and I am finished with looking at a e-mail, now do I get it to go back to a blank screen so I don't end up with a bunch of open windows. Also, can you open up folder where bulk - junk mail will go automatically?

You can't have bunch of open windows on the iPad, you can only work on one window at a a time. Tap the home button to go back to the home screen or double tap the home button - no all of your recent apps will be at the bottom of the screen in the recents tray. Tap on the app that you want to go back to. You can also use Multitasking gestures - go to Settings>General>Multitasking Gestures>On. When you are in the setting You can read how it works.
You cannot open a bulk folder for junk mail to go to automatically. Junk mailboxes can only be set up in IMAP email accounts. If you had an IMAP account, you would already have a junk mailbox in the mail app since it would have probably synced to the iPad when you set the email account up on the device.
If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

My macbook went back to the original format and I cannot access anything from my desktop, website, etc

I restarted my macbook today and when I signed back in, it was completely messed up. There are question marks in the dock and nothing is loaded that is suppose to be there (my photos, files, music, etc). Is my computer junked or what happened? I am a teacher and it is property of the school so I am not sure what I can do. Please help!!!

? in the Dock is not something tragic, as these are links, not the originals. First of all, determine if anything is missing in the original locations: apps must be in Applications folder (or in any other folder you may have added), files in Documents or where you put them etc. You may remove those ?’s by dragging them up from the Dock. If all original files are there, you have not lost anything, it is just a strage behavior of the system. This is strange and difficult to reproduce, so you must give some details, if need be.
Once an app is started, it automatically adds its icon to the Dock, right click on it, then choose Keep in Dock. You must repeat them with all apps you wish to have there. Alternatively, you may simply drag their icon to the Dock, and a link will be added, even if they are not active.

How do you restore OS X Lion back to factory defaults?

I want to do clean up my hard drive a lot, and I'd like to just take the OS back to factory.
First, if anyone knows how to do this properly, please describe how. Second, if I restore back to factory is it possible to redowload my apps and everything from the app store/itunes, or do I have to do something different? I am very unfamiliar with how Mac OS X works, and I could really use some help. Thanks in advance.

Is there a version of the OS there ready to install, or do I have to have a flash drive with the OS on it?
Booting into the recovery mode (restarting with CMD+R) brings up a minimal OS that allows a few utility functions. However, that suite just queries Apple's servers for the appropriate installer, which it downloads to your machine. Do note that you should try to save a copy of this install app to a separate location, since the ill-designed one deletes itself during installation, necessitating wasting resources (bandwidth, time, and electricity) if you need to recover or restore it.
Once you obtain a copy of this installer, mount the InstallESD disk image and burn it to an empty HD volume or flash drive. That eliminates DLing it in the future and gives you a full and bootable installer.
