How to import or Open folders or files in imovie

Hi I used to be a Windows User , Now a Happy Mac User However I have all my Clips that I use to make movies In 1 Folder all are AVI files , Now I can work out how to Import 1 Clip but how can I import the Complete Folder , Eg, I make U.water Movies , I have a Folder marked Sharks with 10 different Shark Clips in , Another Marked Clown Fish with 20 clips in ,
I want to Import or Just Open to use the whole Folder with these Files In , If I have to do 1 at a Time it will take Forever as I have over 400 Clips of Various Marine Animals , and don't want to retype Name files etc again ..
So if anyone can help me to Open or Import these so I can use as Is that would be great ( most other programs I tried you can just open the Folder from the Source ??)
Any Help would be Great
Thanks
Mark

I have all my Clips that I use to make movies In 1 Folder all are AVI files
The first step is to ensure your AVI file containers hold iMovie '08 "edit" compatible files. For instance, an AVI file with M-JPEG video and Unsigned Integer audio would be compatible but an AVI file with M-JPEG video and adaptive PCD (ADPCM) would not be compatible. Once you know all the files in a given folder are compatible (or have been converted to any of the iMovie '08 compatible compression formats), then you can proceed to their actual import.
I want to Import or Just Open to use the whole Folder with these Files In , If I have to do 1 at a Time it will take Forever as I have over 400 Clips of Various Marine Animals , and don't want to retype Name files etc again
To import the files simply select the "Import Movies..." File menu option. When the window opens, create a new Event using an appropriate name (e.g., "Sharks" or "Clown Fish"). Now navigate to and open the source folder containing the files you wish to import to the newly named Event. If you want to import all of the files, simply Click on the first file in the folder and then Shift-Click the last file in the folder to select the first, last, and all intervening files for copy. If you only wish to import select files from the folder for "batch" import, then Click the first file and use Command-Click for each additional file you wish to add to your import list. Remember that while copying large lists of files may not be a time consuming process, thumbnailing them can take a long time depending on the compression formats involved.

  • How to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM.

    how to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM. i need to know whether TIFF format is used and also the full steps.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    You can not directly use a logo from a file into a Smart form. First you will have to upload it to SAP. This has to be done only once. Once it is imported into SAP then you can use it in smart form. To import a logo to SAP, goto SE78. Open the tree under GRAPHICS. Select the file type and click on the Import (first button on the toolbar, just before delete button). Select the logo file and give it some appropriate name along with description. Select appropriate type of the image and click Continue. Your logo will be uploaded into SAP from a file. Now in your smartform, Create a Graphic Node, give the name of the logo along with other properties. In this way you can import a logo from a flat file into SAP and consequently in a smart form.

  • Magic Mouse not not able to open folders or files

    Magic Mouse not able to open folders or files on desk top. I can drag folders around but not able to open either with a double or single click of the mouse.
    Tried an older BT mouse with same effect.
    Command O works fine.

    Hey there kwilli2,
    It sounds like your mouse left click is not functioning correctly. I have a couple of things to recommend and see what might be happening. First check in the Universal Access preferences pane to see if either, the double click speed is set to high.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Universal Access.
    Click the Mouse & Trackpad tab.
    For Magic Mouse, click Mouse Options to show these slider controls:
    Adjust the sliders to your preference for double-click and scrolling speeds.
    From: Magic Trackpad and Magic Mouse: How to adjust double-click and scrolling speed in Lion
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4930
    If lowering the double click speed does not resolve the issue, I would next try these troubleshooting steps in this article named:
    Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3048
    Mouse buttons do not work as expected.
    The Mouse preference pane allows users to customize the mouse features to meet their needs.
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Mouse from the View menu. Set the Tracking slider to adjust how fast the pointer moves as you move the mouse.
    Try using a different surface to see if the tracking improves.
    Turn the mouse over and inspect the sensor window. Use compressed air to gently clean the sensor window if dust or debris is present.
    If multiple Bluetooth wireless devices are in use nearby, try turning them off one at a time to see if the issue improves. Bandwidth intensive devices could affect tracking.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • In camera raw how large should I open my raw file before converting it to a TIF file?

    in camera raw how large should I open my raw file before converting it to a TIF file---2736 x 3648 (10.0 MP), 3072x4096 (12.7 MP) or 3840x5120? (19.7 MP).  I want a sharp TIF file.   I'm shooting with an Olympus E-510, 10.0 MP camera?

    Actually, not entirely true. In the case of Fuji DSLR's you would do better to double the rez in Camera Raw as that matches the interpolation that the Fuji software does in their higher quoted "effective resolutions"(it ain't real resolution mind you but it can benefit certain image types).
    If you know for an absolute fact you need more resolution than the native file has, you really might want to test upsampling in Camera Raw as it has a newly tuned upsample (put in in ACR 5.2) that is an adaptive Bicubic algorithm that is either the normal Bicubic or Bicubic Smoother depending on the size–and that's something even Photoshop can't do.
    But in general unless you know for a fact you need the image bigger (or have a Fuji camera) processing at the file's native size is the most efficient.

    How can I explore the folders and files on my phone from my phone (lumia 920)?

    the file system including all the data pertaining to that partition is closed on windowsphone8, unlike that of Symbian.
    the only part you will be able to see is what you would see in this post here: /t5/Nokia-Lumia/Transfer-file-for-920/m-p/1605954#M24335
    the rest is locked unless you have developer access, and even then not much as you would just use the SDK to make your applications.

  • How can I open a .mov file with iMovie?

    Hi,
    I keep trying to open a .mov file in iMovie and it isn't doing it. Is that not a recognized file extension? Should I convert the video file somehow?
    Thanks!

    .mov is just a container for a variety of video codecs, some of which are not recognized by iMovie.  You will need to convert it first with a third party app such as Media Converter (which is free, see:   http://media-converter.sourceforge.net). 
    Another free app  VideoSpec (see:  http://videospec.free.fr) is useful for identifying all the details of a video clip

  • How to import data from corel draw file

    Dear Fellows
    i have a problem which is very interesting. i have a data like
    (rollno, name, course, duration and a photo of the candidate) in corel

    This can be automated... Most Windows applications support (or did support) DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange). In its basic form, you can send DDE commands to an application. E.g. load file using this filename, use the selection option on the menu, save the selection as a text file, etc.
    In other words, you can interact with an application using DDE only - no keyboard or mouse input required.
    DDE itself is fairly straightforward and not that difficult to code - the complexity is in the DDE payloads that need to be send to the application to make it behave the way you want it to. In the "old" days, this was documented in some fashion by applications. I cannot recall seeing any specific DDE commands and specs for common Window applications for many years now. Also, DDE was made part of the then new OLE2 spec and have since taken a backseat.
    Not even sure if apps today still properly support it...
    So instead of putting Corel data into Oracle, I would rather look at it the other way. After all, Oracle is the server - not Corel. Have a web front-end (written in APEX) that allows you to specify the participant's details and store this in Oracle.
    Create an export filter in Oracle that dumps this into a XML (or similar) format understood by Corel. Having Corel open this file, convert it, and print it. Then look at how to automated these steps in Corel (using VB for Apps or something).

  • How to import data from a text file into a table

    Hello,
    I need help with importing data from a .csv file with comma delimiter into a table.
    I've been struggling to figure out how to use the "Import from Files" wizard in Oracle 10g web-base Enterprise Manager.
    I have not been able to find a simple instruction on how to use the Wizard.
    I have looked at the Oracle Database Utilities - Overview of Oracle Data Pump and the Help on the "Import: Files" page.
    Neither one gave me enough instruction to be able to do the import successfully.
    Using the "Import from file" wizard, I created a Directory Object using the Create Directory Object button. I Copied the file from which i needed to import the data into the Operating System Directory i had defined in the Create Directory Object page. I chose "Entire files" for the Import type.
    Step 1 of 4 is the "Import:Re-Mapping" page, I have no idea what i need to do on this page. All i know i am not tying to import data that was in one schema into a different schema and I am not importing data that was in one tablespace into a different tablespace and i am not R-Mapping datafiles either. I am importing data from a csv file.
    For step 2 of 4, "Import:Options" page, I selected the same directory object i had created.
    For step 3 of 4, I entered a job name and a description and selected Start Immediately option.
    What i noticed going through the wizard, the wizard never asked into which table do i want to import the data.
    I submitted the job and I got ORA-31619 invalid dump file error.
    I was sure that the wizard was going to fail when it never asked me into which table do i want to import the data.
    I tried to use the "imp" utility in command-line window.
    After I entered (imp), i was prompted for the username and the password and then the buffer size as soon as i entered the min buffer size I got the following error and the import was terminated:

  • How to import old iPhone SMS.CSV file into new iPhone?

    Hey everyone,
    So I've spent a couple days on this as I just upgraded to the iPhone5S from my 4S.  Long story short, my backup restore didn't work after multiple tries (gave me the file is corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone error). 
    I tried:
    -reinstalling itunes
    -updating itunes
    -combining the 5S backup with the old 4S backup
    -tinyumbrella
    and a few of other things as I've forgot now.
    The most important things I needed was the contact list and SMS history.  I've got the contact list from extracting is successfully from the iTunes backup folder and using iCloud, but cannot figure out how to import the SMS.CSV file into my iPhone5S.
    Any suggestions on how I can get my SMS messages from my iPhone4s into my 5S?
    If anyone has any other suggestions on getting my Backup Restore to work that would be awesome too!
    Thanks!

    A word on SMS text messages. It is pracitcally impossible to import an SMS text-messages file to a new iPhone and have the Messages app on the new device read the messages.
    You can transfer, however contacts and other individual data (such as calendars and notes) from one iphone to the next. I had my old Nokia which whose contacts I exported to a CSV file. I then imported the file to my iphone which converted the file into multiple contacts in the Contacts app on the iphone. You can use a contact management app such as this one in order to import the contact file to the new iPhone.
