How do you rotate and manipulate clips in imovie

I have imported some video clips from a cell/mobile phone and am having trouble rotating my clips so they are verticle instead of horizotal. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions on what i can do

you can download and use for free a 'rotate' plug-in from
www.imovieplugins.com
which teaches iMHD that feature..
or, process your clips with the free tool
Mpeg Streamclip
www.squared5.com
which has in its many export options a 'rotate' feature... don't forget to add a 75%zoom.. otherwise you chop-off heads..

How do you speed up video clips for Imovie 8?

How do you speed up video clips for Imovie 8?

Do you mean get 55 minutes of real time footage to show in only 55 seconds?
One way that might work but it will take a fair bit of work in multiple repeated steps.
Select all the footage on the timeline and then use the Turtle/Rabbit slider to speed it all up to the maximum speed allowed. This of course won't be any where close to 55 seconds.
BUT... export your movie back out to video tape or to a full quality DV format quicktime file. This speeded up version becomes "normal" time. Now reimport to iMovies. Since this is now normal speed as far as iMovie is concerned, you can again use the slider to speed the whole thing up to the max.
Now just repeat as often as needed to get it as fast as you want. Export back out, reimport, adjust speed, export, import, adjust, etc.

How do I rotate a video clip in iMovie when I am unable to click on the Cropping Button in the Adjust menu?

Can you help me rotate my video clip in iMovie ? I followed the instructions in the Help menu, but was stuck on Step 3 - after I had selected the entire Clip and then was unable to click on the "Cropping Button".

Are you in the timeline? You can't access the crop button if the clip is in the browser.

How do you uninstall and then re-install iMovie?

I posted here last week about having trouble with iMovie and still can't figure out why it is being so lame... SO. I was thinking that I may just unload and then reinstall the program. Would anyone recommend that or is that a bad idea? I guess I will lose all the projects I've done thus far but I suppose it would be worth it to be able to use the program again! How would I go about doing this?

ImportExportTools is good for saving/backup of your mail. For what you want, probably the zipped folders would be the easiest. You can export your address book(s) to a file (use LDIF; it's much easier to import later).
However, these are only pieces of the profile. With TB NOT running, you can copy your entire profile to another location/medium just by doing a file copy. Look at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb#w_how-to-find-your-profile I copy mine to a USB memory.
When you uninstall and reinstall TB, you will not be changing your profile! So if you want a really clean start, see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-multiple-profiles to create a new/clean profile. Don't delete your old one; you may need parts of it.
If things are still 'wonky' after a new start, let me know.

How do you speed up a clip in imovie?

I have been learning how to use imovie but I cant seem to find how to speed up a clip... I think I have the newest version. Does someone know how?

Give the more powerful iMovie 06 a try, you'll find these features and others built in.
Below is a short video showing how slow / fast motion works in iMovie 06.

How do you add a video clip to a slide show?

How do you add a video clip to a slide show using elements 12?

You can import some very short video clips into Photoshop and make gifs. I can import short (10 second or so) .mvi video clips I've taken with my point and shoot camera.
Use File ->Import->Video Frames to Layers
CS3 doesn't recognize .mvi files until you enter *.* in the box, hit load, then find the file you want.
After the file has been loaded, go to Windows, and check Animation.
After the Animation bar loads, go to the right side arrow, check Make Frames from Layers.
Then Save for Web and Devices, and you've got your gif.
I find it much easier to use the separate software.

TS4253 How do you rotate a photo that is sideways in the photo library on iPad?

How do you rotate a photo that is sideways in the photo library on the iPad? I have found no solution in the user manual or anywhere else. I simply want to rotate the picture from being sideways to being upright. Doesn't seem like this should be such a mystery. Or am I missing something obvious? Thx

Thanks folks, I see there are photo editor apps for the iPad. I am downloading one now, and it should work. Good to know I wasn't missing something in the iPad itself. It does not have the capability to rotate or edit pictures without outside help. Thx

How do you move a sound clip in the timeline?

I have not had this problem before. I have put many songs into the timeline, and repositioned them. Today I pulled up a project and attempted to reposition a song to fit in better with the clip, and I'm unable to do so. I can't select the song, or anything else. Obviously I have set or locked up this track, and I can't figure out how to unlock if that is what I have done. I have 6 songs on that track, Audio track 2, and I can't reposition any of them. I can't even remove them from that track. What am I doing wrong?

Hunt, most of my music files, over 9000 songs, are mostly mp3 files and a few are wma, and because of copyright laws I wouldn't use them in a commercial project I'm working on anyway. When I am working on a project for a client I will generally use higher quality WAV files. This project was being done just to learn some new techniques, gain some more experience with PPCS4, and expand my knowledge with the program. I have this huge number of music files and styles to work with, so I can do a great deal of experimentation to see what different songs can do to the mood of the video.
As a test, I did put the exact same songs into the timeline on a different audio track. The problem track is audio 2, and I duplicated those songs on audio 3. I did the exact same editing. I faded them in and out the same as before. Split one song into 3 sections had parts of it come in and out over a video section of 9 minutes duration. They are working perfectly. I was just working on one section of that project a half hour ago, and I was still able to select and move each of the four songs on that track any way that I wanted to. However, the track just above it in that same timeline, Track 2, is still frozen.
Hunt, just a moment ago I solved my problem. Still not being that familiar with the program, two days ago I know that I was playing with all of the controls, and I obviously hit one of them without knowing one of its side effects. I hit the show "show track keyframes". I'm sure that you know it, but I didn't realize that when that function is selected, you can't do much else with the track but play with those keyframe. Even though I didn't have the track locked, in the traditional way, it was still, for all practicall reasons, locked. I unchecked that function and now everything is back to normal again on that track.
Something very simple, as many things turn out to be when you understand it. However, maybe someone else will make the same mistake, and my posting here will help them.
I will use your suggestions for using .WAV files. Thank you again.

Terry,
What is the purpose of using the .WMA files? I'm sure that you have a good reason, but they can be problematic, at best. I only use them as a trasfer medium, when I need to get a DD 5.1 SS soundtrack into Audition for editing. There, I break them out into 6 discrete .WAV files, edit in Multi-track Mode and then usually Export as the 6 discrete WAV's to be encoded to DTS, or similar.
If you do not have a compelling reason for using the .WMA, try PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit and see if the issues go away.
Good luck, and let us know how it goes please,
Hunt

How do you rotate a pdf document in preview?

There is a book where the double pages are turned. How do you rotate them so that you can read them in preview?

There are three ways.
1. If you have a toolbar on your page (opened by clicking the gray oval in the upper right hand corner) you should see the 'Rotate' option there (it's blue).
2. Click Tools in the Menu Bar. Rotate left and Rotate right are there.
3. Command L for Left, Command R for right.
Rotate until they face the right way. You should be able to save the changes in orientation.

How do I save and manipulate an attached document through gmail?

How do I save and manipulate an attached document through gmail on my iPhone?

I had a client that had hundreds of session variables
scattered in hundreds of CF pages. There was very little CFLOCKing,
and consequently the apps were quite unstable in a loaded
environment.
What I finally did was to copy the session scope variables to
ses.request scope variables of the same name, then did a global
replace of session. with ses.request. In OnRequestEnd.cfm, and
immediately before all CFLOCATIONs, I copied ths ses.request scope
back to session scope (locked, of course). There was no measurable
performance hit, and the apps were rock solid.
Perhaps you could copy your client variables to session
scope; then back again in OnRequestEnd.cfm

Imported photos end up sideways - how do you rotate within iphone?

SYnching photos from Picasa/Google, all the photos are correct in their orientation but when they come into iPhone, many get turned sideways. How do you rotate them back? (Of course if you turn the phone, the photo's orientation changes as well). Help - thanks!

I apologize if I have hijacked the thread or if it seems that I have attempted to derail it in any way.
My issue is "when they come into iPhone" and appears to be the same issue that kekman is having. I have a large number of photos on my iPhone, with about half of them being in portrait orientation.
On the Macintosh platform, I can copy the photos off of the phone, put them in albums in iPhoto (which is not performing any actual rotation of the image other than for display), and sync the albums back to the phone with the pictures retaining their portrait or landscape orientation as they did in the camera roll.
On Windows, I copy the photos off the iPhone (either Picasa, Camera wizard, and I've even copied via ssh/scp), put them in folders (without editing the photos in any way), and sync the "albums" back to the phone using iTunes, but this time all photos show up as landscape.
I can't imagine that this was the intended behavior. Why have the iPhone store the orientation (which clearly both it and iPhoto are using to display it properly) if you're just going to ignore it when you sync albums? I really can't understand at all why iTunes would strip the EXIF data that the iPhone itself puts in the JPEG, from both a user and a developer standpoint. I shouldn't have to modify the photos just to get them to display properly as they did before I took them off the phone.
I guess I'm just frustrated that I can't take photos out of my camera roll using my PC and still have them display properly when I sync them back as albums. So I'm currently keeping them all on the phone in the camera roll and it's getting very cluttered.
It's irritating when you're trying to show off the nice expensive piece of kit to your coworkers and they keep asking why it insists on showing your pictures sideways and you have nothing to say other than "it's a bug" :-/
Ok, so now I've really hijacked this thread. I'll just leave it at that and hope for a fix from Apple (do the devs even read this?). Is there some kind of Apple bug reporting/tracking system similar to bugzilla, etc.?
