How to match sound track to movie pictures? (the sound track is shorter)

I have a sound (narrative) track of approx 1 hr which talks about the movie film. However the film I have, is a slightly different version, that is about 10 min longer then the sound track and I would like to restore the match, e.g. by something like cutting the sound track and inserting blanks, or cutting and moving the sound a couple of seconds. Note I'm totally new to Premiere V 10. I presume I would have to use start and end marks in the sound track and place the subsequent sound parts on a new sound (or narrative?) track (but it seems I will need to introduce additional silent parts, I cannot just move (drag?) the next sound track a couple of seconds to the left.
I would guess there are a couple of easy tricks to achieve my goal.
Thank you in advice.

Well well: not easy nor trivial at all, but I haven’t given up as yet! I’ll describe my workflow below.
1.       Play video fragment, and comparing film picture and sound estimate position where I need to introduce a silent period and it length.
2.       By double click play sound “comment track” on the monitor and set end stop (I would actually prefer if the sound track could be zoomed to more easily/accurately find best position)
3.       Play mute sound clip in preview and set time length with end stop and close preview
4.       Move mute clip to comment track, which has been shortened in step 2
5.       Play main sound clip in Preview and set start point
6.       Move this sound clip to comment track.
But sometime things go slightly wrong, e.g. when moving mute or sound fragment to “comment track” I find that the video track cuts (not intended)
Another difficulty I still need to master is related to the phenomena you mentioned before, related to moving sound clips, parts which were before the starting point show up (e.g. drag edges).
I hope you can roughly follow my explanatory story (I realise writing such workflow is difficult and critically depends on the same use of words concepts definitions and jargon (note my Adobe Premiere Elements is in Dutch).
I’d much appreciate your comments (maybe another software would be friendly to the inexperienced senior citizen)

When i put my bounced track to CDJ 900, the sound quality drops, Hi and Mid Pass sound like they "Shrink In", doesn't sound the same when playback in logic. I set my bouncing setup as highest.

Hi Eriksimon,
Firstly, thanks for your message.
What I meant by "hi pass mid pass shrinking in" is EXACTLY what you menat, I got a heavy bass and muffed high and mid content. Apologised for my poor English.
I haven't checked the setting of the playback device yet but instead I tested it with some professional produced tracks. I know the sound tends to vary a little bit when playing from computer and CD player such as the CDJ 900 that I am using. The differences were not as significant as my own track. They tend to get a rather good balance. My track is well balanced and mixed (I guess) in Logic but it turns out completely different when using the CD player.
I bounced my work to MP3 with highest BIte Rate.

My video is crap but I love the sound. Can I save the sound track of a movie as an mp3?

My video is crap but I love the sound. How Can I save the sound track of a movie as an mp3?

Yes, you can do this.
In iMovie, use SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME...
In the dialog box, choose "Sound to AIFF".
This will create a sound only version of your movie in the AIFF codec.
You can drag this AIFF file into iTunes and convert it to AAC or MP3.
In iTunes, go to iTunes/Preferences. In the General Tab, click the Import Settings button. Remember how it is currently set, (because you may want to change it back.) Choose IMPORT USING: MP3 Encoder.
Now, right-click on the music track in iTunes and select "Create MP3 Version".

HT1657 I rented a movie and the sound doesn't work, how do I fix it?, who do I direct to for a complaint?

Hi, I rented warhorse HD, and the sound doesn't work, my itunes version is 10.6.1(7). How do I fix it or who do I direct to get my money back? Thank you

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

When viewing news video (and others) the lips move and the sound follows after a few seconds. How do I fix this?

The movement of the lips when a video plays is not synced with the verbal noise that comes from speaking. It's like if I am talking and I hear it moments later not when I actually say it.
This happens when I view Fox news, cnn or any of the local news stations.

How do I get the audio track to stick with the video track?

Whenever I move or cut the video track I want it's audio track to move or cut with it, how do I get them to stay together so I don't have to do double work?
This should be an easy one...Let's see who can answer first.....ready, set, GO!

Sounds like Linked Selection is switched off. Check the button in the upper right of the timeline window. Shift-L will toggle it off and on.

In logic Pro, when I open up an audio track or software track and load an audio file/loop or software file loop, there is no sound. I will finally get a sound out of one of the audio or software tracks after opening at least 5 of them alternately. Is anyone familiar with this kind of bug? It's really frustrating as this takes much time to complete work.

I'm not sure I follow your words Fuzzynormal. You've helped by offering the insight that my issue in Logic Pro 9 is not a bug but a feature. But fell short of enlightenment by being a judge of character and of how one should interact in this forum. You insinuate that I haven't tried to solve the issue on my own when in fact I have. These forums are always my last resort. You further suggest that I am complaining. This is not a complaint. It is a genuine issue that I cannot figure out. Then you think that Brazeca is holding my hand and being a nice guy. Brazeca is helping people like me who might not be as adept at using Logic Pro as probably you are.This community forum was established to raise questions, answers and dicussion to help Apple's customers better undertand their operating systems and related issues.

How do I stop my itunes sticking on the first track and playing it over and over?

My itunes starts playing the first track but then repeats it over and over until I move it on manually. How can I stop this happening?

How do I play all my Movies from the iTunes' Library?

How do I play all the Movies from within my LIBRARY without having to click PLAY everytime on each individual movie? All my movies in the Library have the check marks on them already.
When I play my "Music" LIBRARY, as soon as a song is over the next one starts up. Fine. Great! But, the same is not happening from within my "Movies" LIBRARY.
This play-all-Movies type of action works fine from within each of my playlists. Once selected a movie to play from any playlist, other movies will keep on playing, one after another, until told to stop. But, I also would like to play all movies from my library.
It would seem redundant to copy my entire library into a single playlist just to have this function available. Besides, every time I would add a new movie to the library, I would also have to remember to add it to said playlist.
Could anyone, please, tell me if it is possible to play all movies from within the LIBRARY? (iTunes v.8.01).

Thanks for your prompt reply, Meg. I've applied exactly your "smart playlist" directions (always wondered what that "smart playlist" was for while it worked wonders! Great going.
"I asked for a fish and you taught me how to fish"! Thanks again!

How do I take all my movies from the cloud and put them on an external hard drive

I am using an Apple TV and have bought about 145 movies.
The internet in my area is not very fast so I need to know how to put all of my movies on an external hard drive so i don't have to stream them through the internet.
All I would have to do is put the external hard drive on my shared devices.

Greetings austinfromdellslow,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you would like to store your purchases movies on an external hard drive. To do this, first you will need to download your purchased content from the cloud to the iTunes library on your computer.
Download past purchases - Apple Support
Once your media folder is complete with the downloaded content, you can move that iTunes media folder to your external hard drive using the information in the attached article below.

How do I open a QuickTime movie in the Player

How do I create a link in Dreamweaver8 which will open a QuickTime movie in the QuickTime Player and not in another browser window of Safari?

Looking at the source of this page, the markup you posted was:
<pre><a href="Excerpts-The Cult.mov" target="QUICKTIMEPLAYER">Video<br></pre>
1. An HREF tag needs to be closed with an </a> immediately after the word you're hyperlinking (in this case, "Video").
2. Many web servers are cAsE sEnSiTiVe. Best to use all lower case chars in your filename, and avoid space chars altogether (spaces are interpreted as a '%20' character code, that can muck things up).
3. Instead of an HREF tag, you need to use an EMBED tag to invoke the QT Plugin, as demonstrated on the page I linked to above. The HREF tag doesn't understand TARGET="QUICKTIMEPLAYER", only the QT Plugin understands that attribute.
4. For cross-platform compatibility (specifically with Internet Explorer Win 5.5SP2 & above), you also need to use an OBJECT tag to embed your mov. That will be ignored by browsers that use Netscape-style plugins (they use EMBED), but still read by browsers that use ActiveX controls (i.e: Internet Explorer Win).
You might find it useful to work through the basic embedding QT tutorial, also the ADC HTML Scripting Guide for QT.
If all that makes your head spin, grab a copy of PAGEot and get it to generate the QT markup for you.
