How to revive iMovie Photo Browser?

I use iMovie 9.0.8 and iPhoto 9.4.2.
The iMovie Photo Browser suddenly does not see photos in Photo Browser.
It sees the iPhoto icon but does not see any libraries.
I now have to bypass Photo Browser by dragging photos from iPhoto directly into iMovie.
Can you tell me how to fix this?

Try emptying iPhoto's Trash (yes, it does have a Trash folder that should be emptied from time to time). I believe I've read elsewhere that this action may fix the problem you are experiencing (although I don't have first hand experience with this).
You will find the command in the iPhoto menu item iPhoto < Empty iPhoto Trash. After emptying the trash, it may also be necessary to empty the Trash on the Mac (Finder > Empty Trash).

  • I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?

    I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser, some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?

    I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
    Here is the work around:
    Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library.

  • My iMovie photo browser no longer sees all photos

    Used to make nice slideshows with iMovie then a few days ago my photo browser failed to see some or all photos in my iPhoto albums.
    Have tried googling for a solution but no success.
    Very frustrating.

    afair, iM works 'til vers 10.3x of MacOS.
    options:
    • downgrade your MacOS ...
    • upgrade to iM vers6, which work with ≤10.6x

  • How to hide mail photo browser

    Friends,
    When using the photo browser to attach images to mail messages, I've found that the only way to hide the browser is to close it.  Is there any way to make it behave like every other window, which is to move back in the stack when I click on another window, such as my mail message?
    Thanks!
    Steve

  • In sending an email, a picture appears on my email from photo browser. I do not want any picture on outgoing emails and have no idea hoew it got there, but more importantly, have no idea how to stop it. can anybody help me?

    can anybody tell me how to turn off photo browser in email? there is a picture that appears on all outgoing email that i want gone?

    My instructions are specific to signatures.  If you know that it's not a signature then they won't make any difference.  Thomas A Reed has suggested another explanation.  Do you know that this picture is going out with your e-mails?  Have you seen an e-mail you sent on a recipients computer?  Try setting up a googlemail or yahoo account and send an email to it.  Does the picture arrive in the e-mail?

  • Aperture library does not appear in Photos browser of FCPX. Why?

    I can't figure out how to make FCPX photo browser to show my Aperture library. Apple support tells: open photo browser and you will see all your aperture libraries. But my photo browser is empty. I searched the web, this forum and did not find the answer. Any suggestions?

    Thank you very much Luis Sequeira1 and Skyking.
    I tried it and it worked.
    Just strange that you should do something which is not listed in the official manual.

  • How do i use photos in iMovie if browser is inactive

    How do I use photos in imovie if the photo browser is not active. When I click on the camera icon on the right middle of the page, it does nothing no highlight or nothhing to show that its active. I do have photos in iphoto.

    It might help to trash your Preferences files. Especially, the com.Apple.iapps.plist file.
    See this link for details.

  • How do i move photos from imovie to iphoto

    How do I move photos from imovie to iphoto?

    You cannot put photos in a trailer. They are designed for videos.
    However, there is a way around this.
    Go to the Project Library view. Select your Trailer. Now, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
    Now you can add photos.

  • How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?

    How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?
    When I delete a photo from a page, it does not stay in the assets panel. My client uses in browser editing daily. Once a week he changes a photo just for a day, then needs the previous photo to replace it. The original photo is not in the asset panel (or folder) for him to choose.
    When you upload a photo, it has an arrow in the asset panel. How do you use this as an asset?

    Sure ... right mouse click on  your page and choose 'Exclude Page from Menus' :-)

  • IMovie 11 how do I import photos that ARE NOT in iPhoto

    If I don't use iPhoto, how can I import photos into an iMovie 2011 project?
    As far as I can see, you have to put your photos into iPhoto first. I don;t use iPhoto, I use Lightroom and it would be a pain if the only way that I could get photos into an iMovie project was to have to load them into iPhoto.
    thanks

    I finally figured it out myself. You can drag photos from Finder into the project timeline.
    I couldn't find this docuemented anywhere and every tutorial only talks about using iphoto.

  • How to import a stack of pics from photo browser (Adobe photoshop elem 4) and put them into layers

    I am able to form a stack of pictures in photo browser, but I can't import all the pictures at once into one project of multiple layers. The best I can do is iimport them all into separate projects. How can I get a stack of photos to open into one project of multiple layers?

    Open the images in Full Edit. One will show in the main browser window drag each of the others up from the project bin on top of the open image. Each one you drop will create a new layer. Not sure with PSE4 (it works on the latest versions) but give it a try.
     

  • I have finalized my iMovie photo slideshow and wanted to burn the imovie onto dvd. how can i do this so i can watch it on my television?

    i have finalized my iMovie photo slideshow and wanted to burn the imovie onto dvd. how can i do this so i can watch it on my television?

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.
