How to shorten iMovie stills

Assembling a short iMovie from stills. Out of about 20 stills,I can't change the length on 3 of them. I'm using the same procedure on all, but these 3 won't shorten. The rest I was able to change the length of with no problem.

I figured out how to snap a still photo of a movie clip, but where then does it go, and how can I import it into my iPhoto library?

I was working in iMovie and discovered how to take a still photo of a movie clip. Now I can't find that still photo! Where did it go, and how can I import it to my iPhoto library?

Just found out and it is simple. When you find a frame in your video/movie of which you want a still photo or screen shot, just go to the frame and click on command, shift and the #3 in quick succession. You will hear a "click" like a camera taking a photo. The screen shot will then go to your desktop where you can drag it to iPhoto or an e-mail, or anywhere you like. Also you can rename the screen shot by double clicking on the wording under the screen shot on your desk top. Whew!

You do not - use iMovie or an external editor that has this capability - I believe QuickTime Pro does

How to open iMovie 10.0.7?

Hello everybody,
After the upgrade in version 10.0.7, I lost all my movies... how to open iMovie if it crash at the opening?

No bootable clone backup from before the update? OK. I think the following files and folders would need replacing with versions dated before you downloaded iMovie 10.0.7:
Applications/iMovie.app
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imovieapp.........plist [deleting the 10.0.7 version sufficient - will be recreated by 10.0.6
~/Library/iMovie
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.imovieApp
I think this covers everything but I can't be certain. Keep copies of the 10.0.7 versions so you can if necessary restore the status quo
Before trying all of the above its probably worth just deleting the current .plist file (with iMovie not running), rebooting, then trying iMovie 10.0.7 again (if you have already tried this).
Failing that I would delete iMovie 10.0.7 and re-install - several people have reported problems with download and its just possible that something went wrong the first time.
If this still doesn't work it may be worth systematically removing event folders from the problem library with the finder (iMovie not running) because there is probably one event that iMovie 10.0.7 'doesn't like'

Where can i find a tutorial on how to use iMovie 2013 version?

I've been making some clips anywhere from 6 seconds to 15 seconds long, and I just wanted if there are any good links on how to use iMovie 2013 version. I've looked on youtube but everything on their are old clips or small clips on how to run the program. I'm not an advanced user but i've picked up some of the basics on iMovie. I just want to learn the basics and advance onto the harder setups with iMovie. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone point me toward a tutorial/video/anything that will show me how to use iMovie '11?

The Apple video tutorial was just a commercial. Other info I found on Apple site was for the iPad. I have a MacBook Pro. I need to learn how to use iMovie '11 from the start. Very start. To borrow a line from a movie 'Talk to me like I'm a 5-year-old.' For example, what is the difference between a 'project' and an 'event'? Which one do I create first? How do I adjust the exposure and color on my movies? Once I am done with my movie how do I tell computer/software to 'save' it because I am done. Then where is it? These are just examples.
I'd love to find any basic tutorial/video/help.
I got a book but it's way too advanced.
Thank you.

How to send iMovie video with E-mail

I finally stumbled, fumbled, and bumbled my way into getting a 16-second test video clip into my iMovie Project Library. I even got as far as far as preparing the video resolution for Emailing, although I don't know how I got there. Anyway, I think I am now on the brink of being able to send my test video, but I don't want to waste the entire afternoon learning how to do that. What's my next step?

I finally found the section in my iMovies book that tells how to send iMovies by E-mail, and I have now sent my first test video. The quality not acceptable, but if it arrives as a viewable video, I'll then look into making improvements.

Animation. How do I import still images in final cut pro x (from dragon frame) duration 3 frames pr. image?

Animation. How do I import still images in final cut pro x (from dragon frame) duration 3 frames pr. image? We have allready tried to set stillimages duration in preferences to 0,08 sek, but it does not have any effect!

You can drag your images to the timeline, select all, ctrl-d and set the duration to 3 frames by typing 3 and enter.
Or you can use Quicktime 7 to "open image sequence", select the desired duration, export your animation to quicktime and import that into FCP X for further editing.

! work with Adobe Premiere Elements 10

Bernard Bussemaker
If you really have a 720 x 576 Standard Widescreen Video 16:9 (PAR = 1.4587) and you want a jpg still capture from it using Premiere Elements 10, then I suggest the following:
Premiere Elements 10
Project Preset = PAL DV Widescreen
Place the Timeline Indicator to the frame that you want as a jpg image.
Go to
Share
Computer
Image
and there set Presets = DV PAL SD (it is long story, but you do not have much choice at that level), so
you could experiment with JPEG - HD 1920 x 1080 but no sure how that is going to look going from 720 x 576 to 1920 x 1080, so
Under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset, set
Frame Width 1024 or 1050 pixels
Frame Width 576 pixels
Aspect = Square (1.0)
("or" relates to....if you just want a 16:9 jpg still, then 1024 will do fine. If you want a 16:9 jpg still that will present in a Premiere Elements project to fill the Edit Mode monitor, then 1050.
1024 x 576 is the square pixel version of the non square pixel version 720 x 576 widescreen which is stretched for display after encoding.
Image can resize downward if necessary. More details on that later.)
If the details of what I have suggested are too much, then just try the suggestion step by step and then let us know if it works for you. If any questions or you need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask.
If you are really dealing with a 720 x 576 4:3 standard video, we can go through that next.
But the answers are in the details.
Thanks.

How to Crash iMovie HD 6 in a few easy steps.

HOW TO CRASH iMOVIE HD (6.0)
{Make sure your mouse is set up for left/right button operation like on a PeeCee. It may not work otherwise}.
1. Record a short clip using the iSight camera. Record another.
2. <Left Click> on one of the clips.
3. Use <right Click> and select 'clear'.
(one clip disappears in a puff of smoke ...)
4. <left Click> on the other clip.
5. Use <right click> and select 'clear'.
(other clip disappears in a puff of smoke ...)
6. iMove hangs for a second and then shuts down.
(It also usually works with clips that exist already.)
Plse send off the bug report to Apple.

I have had the same experiences as everyone else on this fourm. Maybe that's why I never see a Apple Rep answer a question. I was working on a project all day and the application would just quit in the middle of me making an edit. I never had a chance to save my work when this happened.
It seems to me that over the past four years, apple has just deployed software without fully testing. I can't understand why they would use their paying customers as beta testers. The quality control aspect of Apple has gone away. You can't use iMovie on an iPod, but that's all they seem worried about these days. I am glad to see Adobe put out some good applications. Take Lightroom for example. This application was created to allow users to run the application on a Power Mac G4. What about that Apple?
I just wish Apple would own up to the problems it's cutomers are reportng and correct them or at least acknowledge them as being investigated. Wit would also seem reasonable for Apple to at least publish known issues.
