How To Cut & Paste From Second Video?

I have two videos.  They're almost identical except for one scene.
I've been trying to copy that scene from the first video and paste it into the second.  It would replace the scene in there now exactly.  Both are the same length.
I haven't had any success.  Is this possible with iMovie?
Thanks.

If the relevant scene is also still in an Event, you can drag it from that Event to the project. When you drop it onto the scene to be replaced, a pop-up menu will appear - choose Replace.
If you can't access the particular scene in an Event, then export the first video and re-import it to an Event. Then select the required scene (drag across the clip to highlight the segment with a yellow border) and drag it to the other project as described above.
To export the project and retain full quality, follow the steps I outlined in this discussion topic:

  • Cut/Paste from Word to Illustrator CS3 for Mac suddenly not working

    This issue regards Illustrator CS3 for Mac on a Mac Pro with 6 GB.
    Exactly one week ago I created a number of Illustrator files by cutting charts from a Word 2008 document and pasting them into an Illustrator document.
    In the past I have dragged the images (or clip art) or simply used Control-C or even Control-X, but by whatever method I opted for, getting the image from Word to Illustrator CS3 has not been a problem.
    Yesterday I got a new chart and a request to replace an old image - one that I had created last week on Tuesday by the Drag/Drop or Cut/Paste method.   For reasons I can't begin to imagine the process simply won't work now.
    I also find that if I simply select text in a Word Document, hit Ctrl-C and then try a Ctrl-V in Illustrator I don't get to see my text pasted in - ONLY if I already have a text block open and the cursor in place will I get to see the text copied over into Illustrator.  This is very strange and not at all how things have worked in the past - typically I would see the new Text Object just appear, and then I could move it to wherever I wanted. 
    I have opened up a number of old files that I know were created with copied text and also opened the associated Word files (earlier versions of Word) and again find that I can't copy text over, or even move images over - even though I clearly could do this before.  I have also tried entirely new files - also with no success.
    I was at an Apple one-to-one session this morning and they were more than mystified by this.  I can Cut and Paste into Adobe Photoshop Elements, but I can't even cut and paste from Adobe Photoshop Elements into Illustrator CS3.   I can drag the Photoshop file (from the Finder window) into the Illustrator document and poof - get my image that way, but it's as an image only.  If the base image in question is a vector image or something else having a plurality of elements, I can't then select the elements in Illustrator to change their color, delete them, or otherwise play with them.
    I have brought up a word document on another Mac system that also has Illustrator CS3 and find that it too can't drag/drop cut/paste between the two applications.   At Apple, we did confirm that such ability is operational in the new Illustrator CS4, but none of their store systems still have CS3 to provide yet a third system to test.
    I have deleted my Illustrator CS3 preferences, tried flushing the p-ram, and of course run fix and repair permissions - no dice.
    My Mac systems update daily and there is nothing in the main update log that shows anything for Adobe or Office (nor do I think there should be).  Adobe Update reports that everything is up to date, and I don't see a history file to know what might have changed in the last week.   Office also reports fully up to date and happy.
    As I can cut and paste the images into an email for Mail and into Photoshop, I am fairly certain that it is NOT a Microsoft Office 2008 issue.  The fact that another Mac with Illustrator CS3 also can't cut and paste suggests that is is really not something personal to my main system.
    It is almost as if this is some clandestine "update" intended to encourage me to buy Illustrator CS4.  Given that I bought Illustrator CS3 less than a year ago, I really am not eager to buy the new version.   The greeting on the Adobe Support page that CS3 is no longer the current version and therefore supported was most annoying.
    I am really hoping that someone out there has an idea of what to try changing, removing and/or adjusting with respect to Adobe Illustrator CS3.

    I tried the Select by Path option - can't believe I missed it - and found it made no difference.
    I actually uninstalled and reinstalled the whole app.  When I tried to simply re-install (can't remember it's exact phrase) it got part way through and then demanded another disk - but I only have one DVD with the application - the extra DVD is for tutorials and it didn't accept that one either.  So I restarted that process and chose to completely uninstall.  Then reinstalled - hey with only my one disk - gee, just like the first time.   And then it seemed to work.
    I was not aware of the save as PDF option - but yes I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac so that option is there - and it seems to work too.  
    There were of course a slue of updates, and I let them all proceed - but even with them all in place the system is fine and I can once again drag and drop / cut and paste things back and forth.   I just tried a text block and "The Quick Brown Fox" pasted in with a clipping mask about 10 times the size of the document, but other than that it was ok.  
    So I have things working again on my primary system.   Will try and figure out what's wrong with the other one - but a reinstall might be the easiest game there too.

  • How to move music from one video to another.

    I have two videos.  I want to take the sound off of a video, and delete only the video part.  Then,  put the soundtrack onto another video clip.   I can detach the sound from the video, but if i delete the video, the sound track goes with it.  I can see a tiny appendage that continues to connect the sound track to the video track - shown below just above the 1.2m.   How do I break that appendage?  thanks

    Add another clip at the beginning of the video (anything, it doesn't matter what) and move the sound track to the left so the 'hook' is now pointing to this clip.  You can then delete the video and the sound track will remain and can be selected,copied and pasted into the other video.

  • In InCopy, how can I paste from one InDesign table to another without also copying formatting?

    I'm attempting to paste information from one indesign document to another, but the styles are different. Pasting without formatting not working in a table. When I paste over, it retains the container style from the original table.
    I have "Text Only" selected from my Clipboard Handling preferences, so I'm not sure what else to do. I know I can hit escape to switch to the text selection instead of a container, but this only selects the text from one cell. I'd like to copy over the entire table, instead of copying cell by cell.
    How can I paste a table into another, without copying the formatting?

    Copy/Paste whole cells will always retain formatting.
    What you have to do is: Copy/Paste Without Formatting the text contents of the individual cell.
    You have to do that individually for each cell, if you want to copy over text of a whole table.
    A better approach would be to:
    1. Copy the whole table to Excel (or a different spread sheet application)
    2. Copy again from that
    3. Select one single cell and paste
    In that case "Text Only" should be selected from the Clipboard Handling Preferences.

  • How do I add a second video card to my Compaq Presario CQ5300F Desktop?

    I want to install a second video card to my Compaq Presario CQ5300F Desktop so I can use two monitors. What card should I get?

    Here are the specs for your Compaq Presario CQ5300F Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model supports one VGA output via nVidia GeForce 6150SE onboard integrated graphics. This model also has a PCIe x16 graphics card expansion slot which will accept a PCIe x16 graphics card. According to the specs, installing a discrete graphics card in the PCIe x16 slot will disable the onboard integrated graphics.
    The graphics card you purchase must support both monitors you wish to use with your computer. Additionally, most retail graphics cards require a 300 watt or greater system power supply. Currently , your computer has a 250 watt power supply and it will need to be replaced. Please consider the Corsair CX430, CX500, or CX600 series of power supplies to meet the new graphics card power requirements.
    Alternatively, if this is mostly for word docs, spreadsheets, day trading and light video, you may wish to consider a USB-to-video adapter such as the eVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or one of the many other adapters on the market.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • How to create screenshot from iMovie video

    in imovie 10.0.2, how do you create (or save) a screenshot from a video clip?

    Looks like I may have found a solution.
    As mentioned above I've copied the "iMovie Events" folder to the place iMovie expects it to be at. And now I've selected: File > Update Projects and Events
    It has recognized that there were a bunch of events that it needed to "process" and has started reading them all.
    It looks like all the events are back, I've not done extensive checking yet, but so far it looks very promising.

  • Cutting clips from a video.

    I have a video that was taken which is roughly 45 minutes. I would like to cut this into clips. Unfortunately I haven't found how. I am sure its easy to do. But perhaps someone can lead me to the right direction?

    Sounds like you need some basics. Open imovie. Go to the help menu at the top and select watch apple tutorials. They give a great start to how to import, cut, and export your video. That is what you need to do.
    the apple store is also very helpful with getting people going. they have classes that help you in person for free.

  • How to extract audio from a video clip

    I am editting a video, and I need to extract the audio from a video clip. On the old iMovie it was really easy, all you had to do was press apple K I think. Thanks in advanced for your help.

    Select the clip in the sequence.
    Then command-L to unlink the clips.
    Then select the audio and delete.
    As a suggestion, two things:
    1. Explain what you want to do. If it is delete the audio, then that is different than extracting the audio;
    2. Do a search in the pdf manual in the help manual

  • How to get photos from a video

    I use PSE8.
    The help file says the below.  What is the Editor referred here?  Thanks.

    In the Editor, choose File > Import > Frame From Video.

    In the Frame From Video dialog box, click the Browse button to navigate to the video from which you want to acquire still frames, and then click Open.

    The video is a 45-min tutorial from Microsoft.  I have watched it in the past so I know it plays to the end.  I do not know what its resolution is.  How do I find out?
    having said that, I was able to continue grabbing frames via the route File | Import | Frame from Video...

    gandgturner,
    Select the contact, and choose "Edit." Then select the appropriate telephone number and follow the "Cut/Copy/Paste procedure. I presume you do not want to "Cut." Finally select "Done" but make sure you did not actually make any changes.

  • No signal from second video card

    I'm resurrecting an ancient machine, putting Arch on it and making it useful again.
    The VGA output is flakey, not working at the highest resolution my monitor can support.  And I found an old PCI video card and threw it into the machine, hoping it would be better.  Trouble is, I get no signal at all from the second card.  Nothing sent to the monitor at all.

  • How to remove text from mp4 video

    hi all,
    i have a mp4 video of 30 seconds.
    the video has a text appearing on left side and bottom of the video.
    i want to remove that text using premiere but im very new to video editing.
    any steps of "how to do" or guidance will be great help.
    thanks

    Sharma,
    While not easy in the best of circumstances, depending on what you have, and what you need to do, there are some possibilities, and one might help.
    First, I would attach a screen-cap of the that Video. You might need to post a couple, if things change dramatically in the Frame. No promises, but there might be some options.
    However, if you can take Jim's suggestion, and get the footage without the Text, things will be so much easier.
    Also, do you have access to Adobe After Effects?
    How about Photoshohop Extended, CS 6, or CC?
    If it cannot be done in PrPro (fewer Tools to employ), it might be possible in AE, or Ps (through Rotoscoping).
    Let us see what you have, and someone will try to help, though remember that the answer might be just as CC_Merchant says, "No."
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Cut audio from a video file and edit in an audio editor?

    Using Pre 9 and a Nikon D7000 video file: Is it possible to cut the audio portion of a movie clip (where the audio was recorded in the camera and is part of the import), edit in an audio editor (I like Sony Sound Forge Studio), then paste it back into the clip?

    I use Steve's method all of the time, and edit the Audio output in Adobe Audition. You will want to Export/Share to PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, and keep that format both going and coming back into PrE. Remember that you will be working with an Audio file, that is the full (or almost) Duration of the Timeline. When you Import that edited Audio file, give the program a few moments to Conform that newly Imported PCM/WAV for editing. I suggest not touching the computer, until Conforming has completed 100%, and the little progress bar in the lower-right of the GUI has disappeared. If the Imported Audio file is short, and your computer is fast, you might not even see that progress bar, but the Conforming has taken place, just the same.
    I like to keep the original Audio on its Audio Track(s), and just use Window>Audio Mixer to Mute that/those Track(s), leaving only my edited Audio on its own Track un-Muted. This is a "fail-safe," just in case I change my mind along the way, and wish to revert to the original Audio for some reason. It is much easier to Mute-Unmute, than to gather up all of that original Audio again.
    Good luck, and happy editing,
    Hunt

  • How can I stop from second window opening small in Safari and browser bar floating in and out like the dock?

    Every so often I will click on a link in safari and it opens a second window. It opens it  small. I can click the two diagonal arrow in the upper right hand corner and go to full view but then the browser bar at th top and all  the Safari stuff like file, edit, view, history etc float up out of site. Much like the disappearing dock I can get it come back by going up by it. This is very frustrating. I have fixed it in the past but each time it is very difficult to find out how to do it. First why does this start happening? and if it does how can I get it to go back to the normal way? I will then bookmark the answer so I will be able to fix it quickly if it happens again.

    I may not have called things the proper name. I am re-wording this now. Hopefully this makes it clearer.
    Every so often,(3 times in 4 months), I will click on a web site and a new window will open much smaller than the standard window. I can enlarge the window by click the two arrows in the upper right hand corner but the menu bar disappears and reappears if you hover over it. I tried what some said above and when the window was small dragged it to the same size as the window under it, menu bars all visible. I closed that window and reopened it and it opened small again. I can go for several weeks and all additional windows open the correct size and with menus visible, then it goes into this mode. Everything running Lion 10.7.2 and Sarafi 5.1.1    
    I straightened it out one time or got it to stop doing that but don't remember how I did it. My husband fixed it the second time and he isn't around today. Anyone able to help?
