How to move iMovie 11 project from network account to local HD ?

Users have their home folders on the network.
iMovie 11 doesn't seem to like (!?!) network drives so I'd like to reassign the default (project) location on the local HD while having network identity.
Help.

Copy the iMovie projec file, xxxxxx.iMovieProject to the other Mac and put it in the Movies folder.  Open it with iMovie, use the Share ➙ Media Browser menu option to get it out of iMovie so iDVD and import it from it's Media/Movies pane.
Follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the  File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • How to restore imovie '09 projects from external HD and old HD disk image.

    I moved the imovie events to an external HD (directory iMovie events) and did a fresh install of OSX (for other reasons). Now would like to restore my iMovie projects. I have an image of my hard drive from before the reinstall. Anybody got any hints? I had a number of hours of editing in on some video stuff from my wife's family. Could redo it I guess, but if I could salvage it, it would be great.

    Did you move the Events to the external drive using iMovie? or using the FInder?
    Let's assume you used the Finder. (If you used iMovie, the fix is simpler. Post back)
    First, move the iMovie Projects from your image of your hard drive to the <your user name>/Movies/iMovie Projects folder.
    Then move the iMovie Events from the external drive to the <your user name>/Movies/iMovie Events folder.
    Then start up iMovie and all should be well.

  • How to move imovie '08 projects and events from one macbook to another

    Hi,
    I need to import my movies via firewire, but can only do it through my brother's macbook, as my new macbook does not have firewire.
    Therefore, I imported 100 GB worth of movies onto his computer, then transferred the iMovie Events and iMovie Projects folders onto a hard drive, then transferred them from the hard drive to MY macbook. Now they are sitting on the desk top.
    How do I get them into iMovie on my macbook, now that I have transferred the files from my brother's macbook onto my macbook's desktop?
    Thanks!

    I guess I just needed to drag my events into my user folder ---> movie events, and then when I launched iMovie, it found them.

  • How to move iMovie '11 project to Macbook with iDVD

    I have a movie I created in iMovie '11 on an iMac without DVD drive or iDVD. I have a Macbook with both. How can I burn the completed project onto a DVD on the other Mac? I have the appropriate Firewire cable. Thanks.

  • How to move iMovie 08 files to my new MacBook?

    Would anyone happen to know how I can move my iMovie 08 projects from my old Macbook pro to my brand new MacBook Pro?
    (And my iPhoto files, too, for that matter!)
    Thanks-

    On the iMac - Turn on Personal File Sharing
    On the MacBook - In the Finder, click on "Go", then "Connect to Server...", then type in the address of the iMac (you can find this at the bottom of the "Personal File Sharing" window on the iMac).
    Click on "Connect" and enter your account name and password for the iMac.
    You should get a list of available items to access, at a minimum your home directory (you don't have to use the Public shared folder). If you use Admin credentials, you can mount the hard drive and access the programs you have on the iMac and run them from the MacBook - not all programs will work this way but most of the ones I use work.

  • How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro onto my desktop?

    How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro to my desktop as a movie?

    Can anyone please help me.. when I click on my timeline in my project library and try to export movie nothing happens! and when I  try to "share" to youtube I get an error message stating that it cannot be exported because it contains "no video"... The 4 minute music video that I've created with shots off my Canon T2i looks and plays great....If I uploaded the videos into Final Cut but did not save them on my desktop or anywhere else on the Mac would this be a reason to get this message? I have never experienced this before...the only option under "share" that works is "email"

  • How to Move a Video File from Movie Section to "TV Shows" Section

    I have an Ipod classic, and am trying to figure out how to move a video file from the "Movie" section to the "Tv Shows" section. I have Itunes version 1.3 which for my device is listed as the most current version.

    haha itunes 1.3, epic.
    to clarify that, I think he would have an ipod classic 80gb which the newest version is 1.3 I think.
    However to answer your question, in itunes right click the movie, go to properties, then go to options, where it has media kind put it to tv show

    You need all the project and event folders associated with the production. They need to be in explicit locations or they will not be seen my the application.

    You use the Upgrade Project and Events function in the File menu when you have the correct folders in the correct location to update the volume you want.

  • How to move the process chain from Unassigned node to a new node in 3.5?

    Hi all,
    I have created a new process chain in the development and it is falling under the Unassigned nodes. I want to move that process chain to an another node. but i am unable to do that
    Can anyone let me know how to move the process chain from unassigned node. I have drag and dropped but still the same in BW 3.5 ?
    Thanks
    Poooja

    Hello,
    Try this....
    Double click on your process chain. Via the menu select:
    Process chain > Attributes > Display components
    Select F4 (possible entries)
    At the bottom of the window you will find a create icon
    to make your own component.
    After you created it, assign it to your process chain.
    Don't forget to save the process chain.

  • How can I convert .cp projects from Captivate 2 to .cptx projects for Captivate 7?

    How can I convert .cp projects from Captivate 2 to .cptx projects for Captivate 7? Do I have to use some other version between 2 and 7 to do this?

    I doubt you are going to be able to find all those previous versions and the time it would take to install, open the project, verify it, and everything in between (and without license keys, they would only be saved from trial versions which would be an issue), it seems it would be better just to start with Cp7 and put the effort into that.
    Completely off topic, one of the things I like about Authorware is that Macromedia provided previous versions that would allow you to open up and save the projects to get to version 7. It was a nice little touch they provided for developers. I don't believe that Adobe does this for Captivate though.

  • How to Move Photoshop 5 LE from dead XP to Win7

    How to Move Photoshop 5 LE from dead XP to Win7?
    I moved the program files from the dead XP computer to a new Win7 notebook, but it will not run because there is not enough memory RAM.
    What does this mean?

    Do you have a hard drive bigger than 1tb?
    Just moving the program files won't get you all the files that are installed by photoshop LE
    and the installer probably won't work unless you have the 32 bit version of windows 7.
    At this point i would really think about photoshop elements 10 which you can download for a thirty day trial
    and see if that meets your needs.

  • HOW DO I DELETE RECENT PROJECTS FROM ADOBE PREMIERE PRO?

    How Do I delete recent projects from Premier Pro/

    PrPro does not have a "database" like say, Lightroom does. It does have a cache of files in a couple different places, but if you simply go to the location of the project file & delete it, and the cache files where there are placed ... you've deleted the "project".
    Some people have all cache files put in one spot just for this ... they can quickly go & delete jobs once delivered. Often after using the project manager to copy files to a drive for storage, then deleting the cache files for that project. Or there computers would blow up from the gigs of material video processing on a daily basis entails ...

  • How to move contacts and messages from Samsung Galaxy S3 to iPhone5?

    How to move contacts and messages from Samsung Galaxy S3 to iPhone5?

    As long as you had the Android data synced with your Google account, they should be there when you sync it on your new phone. That is by far the easiest way.
    I think there is also an import/export option when you hit the menu button in the contacts app. and you could export them to SD card and import them on the new phone using the same SD card.
    Or you can use Mobile Transfer to transfer data between Android smartphone. It is really simple, follow this guide to move contacts from Samsung S3 to iPhone 5.
