How is imovie 08 better than previous versions?

please offer your suggestions.

I use both iMovie 08 and iMovie 06, if I want to make a DVD I much prefer iMovie 06. iMovie 08 is not as DVD friendly as iMovie 06.
Some people think iMovie 08 is easier to to use because you assemble clips using similar logic as you would with iphoto. iMovie 06 uses a concept of a Timeline (as do all other video editing programs I am aware of).
iMovie 08 is a wonderful program assuming that you're using it for what it was designed to do, assemble simple videos to share on the Internet.
iMovie 08 is NOT an upgrade of iMovie 06. It is a completely new application. iMovie 08 is better for absolute beginners that don't want to burn a DVD. Most others will like iMovie 06 for its far greater editing power and ease of making DVDs. (Like creating Chapter Markers and Share to iDVD.)
iMovie 08 has replaced "Share to iDVD" with "Share to media browser". Also iMovie 08 cannot set chapter markers, this has to be done with another program.
When using iMovie 06, one mouse click will set a chapter marker EXACTLY where you specify. In just a few seconds set all your chapter markers. When you are done editing just "share to iDVD 08" and all of your chapter markers will be there!
iMovie 06 is True "timeline based", iMovie 08 is "clip based" (each clip is like its own mini-timeline).
Want a DVD, use iMovie 06.
Want YouTube, use iMovie 08.
iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)

iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 is a terrific combination.
The Web site below has a good comparison of Apple video products.

  • Will future iMovie be better than current version?

    I am really frustrated with my current version of iMovie (08). I would like to see the old version come back...the one that allowed me to edit sound levels EASILY and had the timeline on the bottom.  Is there a chance this will come back?
    I just liked that way I could sit down and edit the video, add soundtracks, adjust sound levels, etc WITHOUT referring to video tutorials and help files.
    Thanks in advance.

    Give iMovie 11 a try, it's a definite improvement over iMovie 08.
    I would like to see the old version come back...the one that allowed me to edit sound levels EASILY and had the timeline on the bottom.
    If you like iMovie 06 better, as MANY do, you can continue to use it.  I find that it works perfectly with my Mac Pro, iDVD 08/09/11 and the latest Mac OS.  I use iMovie 06 more than iMovie 11.

  • Is WAAS 5 that much better than previous versions?

    I have never used Cisco WAAS for wan op (I've used BlueCoat and Silverpeak) and have heard less than complimentary comments on its ease of deployment and overall functionality. I am currently looking to replace my aging Bluecoat environment and am curious about people's opinion of 5.X.
    From what I have heard it is night and day different and an overall much better better product.
    What are the communities opinions? How does it stack up agianst Riverbed and the other players?

    Hi Kenny,
    you are asking for community opinion. Working for Cisco I can give you my perspective, I hope that counts as well ;-)
    You are right about the day and night difference.
    One of the reasons is the completely reworked Central Manager GUI, which is using HTML 5 now. So it can be used on iPads or similar as well. But more important is the Look and Feel and usability of version 5, which is perceived very positive from what I take away in my conversations with customers.
    Perhaps the biggest addition to the portfolio is a new redirection technology, AppNav (Application Navigation).
    With AppNav you can now do loadbalancing and traffic distribution to a WAAS (WAE/WAVE) cluster more easily and in fine granularity. This means, you can distribute certain networks (Branches) or applications to a certain set of WAAS appliances at ease.
    What think needs to be mentioned are Cisco's partnerships with leading IT companies in order to jointly work on Application Optimizers and haveing them certified. Best example, if we are talking about the new version (so true for 4.5 as well) is The Citrix ready certification for ICA optimization.
    Others inlcude e.g SAP NetWaver, and Microsoft Protocols ( CIFS/SMB /native v2, (e)MAPI, Video Streaming Server, virtual Windows Appliance on WAAS), ...
    Other Highlights:
    WAAS Express Version 2. You can run WAAS on your Router as an IOS Feature.
    SSL scalabilty at 75.000 concurrent sessions on WAVE 8541.
    Cloud solution with vWAAS (virtual WAAS).
    Hope that give a first impression,
    chris

  • How can I downgrade to a previous version?

    How can I downgrade to a previous version. I upgraded to 2.3 and now my site is totally hosed because the fonts on the master page are changing size arbitrarily without me touching them. I've had to eliminate my site map on the bottom of my master page because I've spent over 20 hours trying to correct the issue and can't seem to get anywhere. Even completely recreating the page doesn't correct the problem.
    I was going to simply change a few photos from an older backup copy of the html files, but when I opened them with the 2.3 version, it changed all of the font sized on those files too.
    I need my site working properly, so, how can I downgrade to the previous version and get my site working again until the bug is fixed?
    Help please!

  • How do I revert to a previous version?

    If i do anything on my computer besides play the new Itunes by itself, I get horrible audio distortions. How/where do I download a previous version? I was running just fine with multiple applications open before this painful 'upgrade'.

    If you look in the folder where your library file is stored, iTunes creates backups, replace the newest file with the file created before the install.
    On my computer, files were in "my music->iTunes", file named "iTunes Library.itl", with backup files stored in a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries" in the same directory.
    As for this release, it's buggy as heck. I had deteriorating audio problems like everyone else, then when I quit out it gave me an error when I tried to restart it, and I could no longer even open the program. Now I'm happily back at v6.0.5.2, fortunately I still had the installer on my computer.

  • How do I go to a previous version of Adobe before 11.0.07, I can't print

    How do I go to a previous version of Adobe prior to 11.0.07.  Since installed I can't print .pdf.  I have Adobe XI 11.0.07 and Windows 7 - 64.

    Don't know if you can. Two approaches can be tried: 1. Try to install a previous update or 2. deactivate, uninstall, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, remove the Acrobat folder, reboot and reinstall. However, it is worth try an repair first. Also, you say you can't print and that is not very helpful to the rest of use to possibly help

    Many thanks b Noir
    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR  software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others  they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so  I downloaded the software and installed again.
    Sorry, just this minute went to insert image  and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content  is not allowed?.
    The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr  SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

  • How do I revert to a previous version of Flash Player?

    While we always recommend using the latest version of Flash Player, sometimes problems are encountered in a new release that were not present in a previous release.  If you are unable to work around these problems and they block functionality you rely on, rolling back to a previous version might be required until an update is made available.  This FAQ will walk you through the steps required for reverting back to a previous version of Flash Player.
    Please note that Google Chrome provides it's own version of Flash Player.  For more details on this, along with instructions for using a version other than the default with Chrome, please see: Flash Player with Google Chrome.

    1. Follow the steps in the "How do I do a clean install of Flash Player" FAQ, but stop at the end before installing the most recent version
    2. Install the latest Flash Player ESR release.
    The Flash Player ESR release provides a player with all known security patches applied.
    If downloading from the Flash Player archives, please note that you will be downloading a .zip file that will contain installers for all operating systems.
    Unzip the archive and navigate into the appropriate folder (you can safely ignore the folder that ends with "_debug").
    Run the appropriate installer for your operating system and browser.
    If installing for Internet Explorer, run the installer with "winax" in the file name.
    For Windows, running the executable that ends with .exe is recommended.
    When presented with the dialog that allows you to select your update method, select "Notify me to install updates".

    Hey Chris, thanks for all the keeping up with us and stuff.  I have an issue and i'm not sure if this was already discussed (if so sorry). Windows 8 IE 10 I'm getting an error tying to downgrade my customers to the beta.  The message i'm getting is
    The installation encountered errors:
    Your Microsoft Explorer browser includes the latest version on the Adobe Flash Player built-in. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of Flash Player are available.
    I have done my research and I cannot find how to fix this issue.  I have ran the uninstaller multiple times and restarted blah blah all the goodies.  It will not let me install the beta.
    Please help..... any idea how to get beta running on hundreds of my customers machines?
    The beta work's great it seems like and I wouldn't mind installing the beta on all their machines till the final release (which seems like a few weeks away)
    Thanks again, Tim

  • How can I return to a previous version of Numbers? Or how can I have all my sheets show on a column on the left hand side, as in the previous version?

    I updated my Numbers for Mac only to find out that there are several changes that make it less appealing for me so far (and I don't think it's only the learning curve). Questions: a) can I somehow edit the location of where I can find all the sheets (right now they are on top of the page, and you can't see all of them listed at quick glance but must scroll/arrow through them) I have in that spreadsheet? In the previous version they were all easy access on the left hand side.
    Or b) can one go back to a previous version of a program somehow?
    Thank you for any leads/answers!
    L

    can I somehow edit the location of where I can find all the sheets (right now they are on top of the page, and you can't see all of them listed at quick glance but must scroll/arrow through them)
    On my machine I just hit shift-command-j (the keyboard shortcut I assigned in System Preferences) and a list of the sheets in the current document pops up:
    I type a number from the list and jump immediately to that sheet. The hands never have to leave the keyboard.
    (This particular document had a sheet named for each month.  But the sheets in your document automatically will be listed instead.)
    This is done via a Jump to Sheet Automator Service (Dropbox download).  To install just doubleclick the .workflow package and (if needed) click 'Download Anyway' in System Preferences > Privacy & Security.
    Installation will cause a new item to appear in your Numbers > Services menu.  Then, if you want a keyboard shortcut, go here in System Preferences and add one:
    You can rename or remove the service by holding down the option key in Finder and choosing Go > Library > Services. You can also view the AppleScript contaned within the service by opening the .workflow package in Automator.
    Note, also, that in Numbers 3 you don't have to use those left-right arrows upper right to slowly scroll left-right to the sheets that are out of view.  Just move your cursor up to the "band" with the "tabs" and drag left or right.  That's much faster than using the arrows.

  • How can I return to a previous version of firefox?

    At this moment I'm running Firefox 35.0.1, and I think I wish to return to whatever was the previous version. I think Firefox updated to this version several weeks ago, and since then strange things are happening.
    First of all, I don not like the "manage search engine" set-up. It's different than the one I had a few weeks ago. Now there's nothing at all wrong with this new incarnation, I just don't like the drop down box, etc, (very small issue).
    My real concern is, when I'm on a web page, (pick one), any web page, I'll begin hearing audio from some ad. I frantically search the page to see where I can stop the audio, never finding any option. I'll minimize my window, to see if something is behind that window, which I can shut off, but to no avail. This has happened 3 times in the last 48 hours.
    Not earth shattering issues, I realize.
    But the question would be, is there an easy way that one could return to the version prior to 35.0.1, without damaging anything, (I'm not extremely tech savy).
    Thanks in advance, etc.

    Changing versions often does not cure problems, but it does increase risks.
    * ( Do Not ) [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
    The search options will not be changed by downgrading, but there is a method of changing that without downgrading.
    * See Ed's [/questions/1044599#answer-685295]
    I am not sure the changes in Firefox 35.0.1 would cause your audio issues
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/35.0.1/releasenotes/
    The first step in troubleshooting that may be to identify the tab or page involved, then try Firefox with only the newtab page and the problem page open.
    IIRC Firefox is intended to continue streaming audio even if a tab does not have focus. That enables users to stream audio in the background whilst browsing. What you hear may be intended behaviour.
