How to cut clips on iMovie for iPhone 4

I can't figure out how to remove extraneous footage from a clip in the iMovie app for iPhone 4. It's driving me crazy. How can you delete a part of a clip??

This is what I am trying to do. Selecting it makes the yellow clip "ends" show up, but then HOW to consistent get the segment clipped with the next touch to the screen? Is it a tap and finger scrape? Sometimes I am successful but A) most of the time NOTHING happens, and B) I can't get a feel for the control in order to get the cut just right.
AArgh.
To top it off, when I went to put my music on, AFTER I worked a couple hours on my first imovie on the phone, SOMEHOW the entire app disappeared from my phone!! Yes, it was on my iMac, but when I reloaded it onto the phone again, my little movie was gone! What the **** happened?? (I am now trying to do my little movie again - good practice, anyway...)

  • Slowing down or expanding a video clip in iMovie for iPhone 4

    Is there a way to expand a short video clip in iMovie for iPhone 4? I can expand a still image, but not a video clip. I would like to take a video clip that lasts 2 seconds and expand it to 15 seconds or longer. The video clip could be slowed down.
    I can do this with still images, so I would think I would be able to do this with video clips. For example, when I insert a still image it defaults to 2 seconds with the ken burns effect. I can then expand or shorten the still image to last as long as I want (from 2 seconds to 10 seconds, for example). However, when I insert a short video clip I am not given that option. When I grab the crop button and try to expand the video clip it stops at the end of the clip.
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks Joe, hopefully Apple adds this feature to iMovie soon.

  • Selecting multiple clips in Imovie for Iphone for plus Ipad 2?

    hi guys first post on these forums i hope you can help.
    I recently downloaded imovie from the app store for my iphone 4 and so far have been really impressed with it. However there is one problem i'm having. I would like to select multiple clips from my camera roll without having to keep going back into the media section and having to scroll down to find the clips for everyone i want to add. Is there a way of selecting multiple clips? any help appreciated!

    There is a way to load multiple video clips at once on iMovie's timeline on the iPad.
    I have been able to load multiple video clips into my iPad's iMovie's timeline at the same time, but this process requires the combined use of iMovie and iPhoto and won't work if you have iOS 8 running on your iPad.
    This is the way I do it.  You create an iMovie project (Movie) on your iPad.  iMovie will show the video clips that you can load to the timeline, but, as you have probably already found out, you can't load more than one clip at a time in iMovie's timeline.  My videos have sometimes 100-200 clips, so loading them into the timeline one-by-one is a very long and tedious process. I do this instead:
    (1)  I go to iMovie and load the first clip on the timeline using iMovie. (This needs to be done to avoid iPhoto importing its background music to your video clips in iMovie.)
    (2) Then I get out of iMovie and go into iPhoto.  iPhoto shows you all the photos, but more importantly also all the videos in your Camera Roll.
    (3) In iPhoto, I select the next video in the Camera Roll (the one right after the clip that I already placed on iMovie's timeline).
    (4) Next, I hit the icon at the top of iPhoto that takes you to the "Share" section (the icon is a square box with an arrow pointing to the top).  This will open a dialogue box that has a section there for "Apps" and you will see the iMovie icon.
    (5) Select the iMovie icon, it will open a dialoge box that reads at the bottom: "Choose Photos...".
    (6) Select "Choose Photos..."
    (7) Now you can select up to 15 video clips in iPhoto to load into iMovie's timeline.  You select each video by tapping it, it becomes encased in a white square and will show a check mark.
    (8) After selecting up to 15 video clips, hit "Next" in the top right corner, you will be taken to iMovie.
    (9) In iMovie, you will be asked to select the project into which the clips are to be placed.  Select the project and the clips will all be loaded at once into iMovie's timeline.
    Repeat the process again each time to load more clips; the process will place each new group of clips on iMovie's timeline right after the previously loaded clips.  When you return to iPhoto, the clips that appear encased with a heavy white border are the ones that have already been placed in the timeline for iMovie; select the next uncased clip and 14 more and load them into iMovie in the same way as described before.
    One word of caution:  This process only works using iMovie and iPhoto together.  iPhoto does not work with iOS 8!  (Thank you, Apple!)  That's why I don't have iOS 8 on my iPad, so, the process works fine.  I hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • How do I speed up a clip in iMovie for iPhone

    I Can't seem to figure this out, certainly you'd be able to, right?

    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.

    iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)

  • Cannot Import Video made with iMovie for iPhone/iPod Touch

    I edited a video on my iPod touch using Apple's iMovie. The resulting .MOV file that iMovie creates will not import into iPhoto '11. While iMovie recognises the file just fine, iPhoto believes it is an unsupported file type. It's a .MOV for goodness sakes created with Apple's own hardware and program! Very strange. Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience.

    Hey there. In answer to your question, all other clips that appear in my camera roll are easily seen by iPhoto. It is only those movies that I have created with iMovie for iPhone that iPhoto does not recognize. It's really strange, considering the fact that it's just a .MOV file. As a result, I've had to download a program called 'DiskAid' that allows me to transfer the .MOV file directly to my computer from the iPod Touch.
    In answer to your question regarding whether or not iMovie for iPhone was worth downloading, I would have to say yes (assuming of course the import-to-iPhoto problem gets fixed). It's not a perfect program. My biggest complaint is that you have to import clips ONE at a time. There's no 'import all' option. This is really time consuming as you have to cycle through all the videos on your iPod or iPhone and manually tap each one and repeat. My dad likes to take a lot of 1-minute videos that then have to get spliced together and that can be really tedious with how this iMovie is currently set up. However, if you regularly think to add your clips to an existing project as you go along, things should be fine. It could do with a few more features and faster rendering times, but on the whole, it's a decent program. I have a feeling, though, that it was designed more for the YouTube generation who want to upload a five-minute video instead of people like my father and I who like to edit an hour or so and then eventually burn to a DVD. iMovie for the Mac still CERTAINLY has it's place.

  • IMovie for iPhone 4 - Ken Burns Effect Issue

    If I move the timeline to the start of my clip, the Ken Burns Start button is not available but the End button is. Start shows up at the end of my clips.
    When at the start of the clip then start should be available and at the end of the clip then End should be available. By it being reversed, this causes me to make my effects backwards of how I intended them to be.
    Is this a software bug or do I just not understand how to work this editor?

    Razmee209 is correct, out of warranty repair/replacement cost for and iPhone 4s is $199, and the reason you would have to pay for that Kats524 is because accidental damage is not covered under your limited hardware warranty. Hope this helps, best of luck to you.
