I am trying to include a number of iTunes tracks to my iMovie project as background music. However, when I drag and drop the tracks into the grey areas between thumbnail pics, they seem to be locking into specific clips

How can I stop this from happening? I simply want to have a number of tracks playing one after the other as background music from the start to finish of my project.

What version of iMovie?
What Device?
Have tried to restart, soft reset your device?
What is the video audio source?
This forum is for iMovie iOS (ipads & iphones).
Are you referring to iMovie Mac?
If so I can get your post moved.

  • ITunes locks up when I drag-and-drop video file into library

    I have some videos that I have on my computer that I want to add to my library but when I drag and drop them into my library iTunes freezes. I never had any problems with this before. The format is right. I used a program to convert them and other videos worked but this one.

  • Can I make layers default to the top when I drag and drop into a new folder?

    Can I make layers default to the top when I drag and drop into a new layer folder instead of the bottom? It annoys me that they always go to the bottom and I inevitably always need them at the top.
    Thanks

    Hi there
    ok so PS CS6 if I grab a layer in Group A (yes layer sets sorry) and drop it into Group B, itll put it under anything thats already in Group B, which annoys me! Is there a way of telling PS to default anything dragged from one group to another to default the newly added layers to the top 

  • Why I can't see the button fuse, when I drag and drop a folder into same name folder

    Why I can't see the button fuse, when I drag and drop a folder into same name folder
    I saw the option only one time, and i reseach in the internet and I find fuse option, but now never saw again.
    And Yes, I drag folders with the same name.

    Ok, Gracias por su pronta respuesta, yo necesito arrastar una carpeta a otra ubicacion con una carpeta del mismo nombre, entiendo que lion te advierte si desea reemplazar el contenido o fusionar (mexclar el contenido)
    como lo dice aqui :

    3. Podrás combinar tus archivos y carpetas. Seguro que alguna vez has perdido algún archivo al combinar carpetas o archivos del mismo nombre pero distinto contenido. Ahora, cuando intentes mover una carpeta a un lugar con otra de idéntico nombre, tu equipo te preguntará si prefieres combinar ambas o cambiar una por otra. Los archivos serán tratados de una manera similar: Cuando coincidan archivos con el mismo nombre, el sistema te preguntará también si quieres mantener ambas copias.
    y en muchas otras paginas que tratan el tema.
    mi problema es que esa opcion no me aparece. solo la opcion de reemplazar (o no reemplazar o detener)
    Lo increible es que alguna vez el mismo dia de hoy si me aperecio la opcion.

  • When I drag and drop a wav file into garage band it is rejected. How to imposrt a wav file?

    Hi Everyone,
    I want to edit a voice recording, done in WMA format, in Garage Band.
    I saw a video in which the fie is simply draged and dropped in the timeline area, and the time line appears. Then youcan edit it.
    But when I drag and drop this WMA file into the editing area, it jumps back out to where I dragged it from.
    Is there any way to import WMA files intoGarage Band?
    Thank you, Giorafromny

    not directly, you'll need to use some software to convert it to a format supported by GB:

    Hi wayneiii,
    If you are having issues adding video files to iTunes on your Windows machine, you may want to verify that they are in a format that iTunes can play. You may find the following article helpful:

  • What's up when you drag and drop a table into a jsp page?

    Hi All,
    I was wondering what's happen in dragging and drop a table into a jsp page. This question because untill yesterday i had an application up and running, with a table displaying a number of rows of the database, and an action associated with an update into a database.
    The action is managed trough JNDI, defined from Preference-Embedded.......
    It was working.
    Then the machine hosting the db changed IP addres. I went into Webcenter Administration console, I've changed the connection string into the jdbc parameters, by updating the new IP address... but it's not working anymore! The log comes out with a big error, but basically it can't connect at the db!
    So, I think there is somewhere some reference to the old db.....where???
    Thanks
    Claudio

    Yes Shay,
    I got this error:
    JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.JboException, msg=JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.JboException, msg=JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.DMLException, msg=JBO-26061: Error while opening JDBC connection.
    in few hours I'll be able to give you the full stack.

    Hi Shay,
    Thanks a lot..you were right.
    I've located the ba4j on the webcenter server...and I've noticed that it was with the old address.
    I think it's a bug, cause on the local machine (before to deploy) this file comes with the right address.
    So next time, before to redeploy a new application, I think I'm going to fiscally delete the folder from j2ee folder.
    Thanks again for the help!

  • Had to reinstall iTunes after bad virus and now when I drag and drop song into custom playlist it won't added.  No green   appears, instead just the circle with slash.  What's going on?  a fix? Michael

    I had to reformat after a bad virus and reinstall iTunes.  Now when I try to drag and drop a song into a custom playlist, it won't add the song.  Instead of the green + that is supposed to appear, it just shows the circle with cross slash.  I created numerous playlist before and never ran into this problem.  Any suggestions on how to fix it?  Thanks 1ngiri

    OK, so I have now found that this is apparently normal for iTunes, to only accept mpeg 4 movie files, all the searching I did before I must have worded it wrong because I couldn't find anything about this, incredibly. Had been looking for why iTunes won't take all the files it previously did, like if it had been changed, and it hasn't, it's allegedly always taken only mpeg 4 files. Also I had been searching for why iTunes crashes every time I try and add/import anything but mpeg 4 files, and even sometimes with mpeg 4 files. That isn't normal, it's supposed to just do nothing apparently as I've just found out. So for these reasons I didn't find the answer despite my searching all over the web.
    So I guess that answers my own question now, but I'm still perplexed as to why I absolutely, definitely, without any doubt, had several hundred movies of a few different video file types loaded, accessible and playable in my iTunes library that everything here claims iTunes never accepted. It apparently shouldn't have been possible for me to have done this, but for probably 10 years it's been this way.
    Perhaps since I don't remember adding these files to iTunes anymore recently than maybe 6 or 7 years ago, the iTunes back then did accept all kinds of file types? Or could I have somehow had some video codecs or software that expanded the capability of my movie players like Quicktime Player that unwittingly also allowed iTunes to take those files as well? All I know is somehow it worked! So now my question is how did I have it working before, so that maybe I can make it work again.

  • Logic changing the names of audio files when I drag and drop into arrange

    i am dropping some 44.1/24 bit files into logic and for some reason out of nowhere the names of the files are changed. it removes digits i have entered in the file for identification purposes, so i am no longer sure what they are, and seems to be replacing it with "#". could it have something to do with import settings? i have not changed any...

    This happens because until recently Logic didn't handle long filenames very well.
    Long filename support was added in Logic 9.1.x so I recommend upgrading to that version - or using shorter file/pathnames.
    The #7875 bit appended to the name is the number of the disk block the file is stored at...

  • Drag and Drop is not opening the highlighted folder so I can't drop into route folder

    New issue since Yosemite upgrade:
    When I grab any file to drag & drop somewhere, and move that file over a folder highlighting it to open a route folder to drop it into, it won't open the folder to reveal its contents. I can only drop the file into that folder. So it's one folder at a time. Man, it can take me almost a minute to get one file where I want it to go when there is multiple subfolders. This is true for any folder anywhere including the sidebar and within any application that opens a finder window for saving etc. It is very limiting and frustrating.
    Also, it is only for my user login, the other users work fine. But I really don't want to have to create a new one.
    Please, help! I would appreciate guidance from anyone, or at the least sympathy to know I'm not the only one.

    Sorry, i forgot to write select RELAUNCH. If the newly created one didn't fix the problem, then something else is amiss. One way to determine that is to log into a good admin account, open up Users & Groups, delete the bad account, saving its data, recreating it with the same credentials, logging into the newly created one, and seeing if the problem's fixed. If so, then open the save data disk image stored in /Users/Deleted Accounts/ and slowly move plists from the Preferences folder into the new account's folder, restarting, and seeing if the problem reoccurs. Eventually, you'll isolate the bad or corrupting items. The procedure's long and time-consuming, but faster than resetting all the preferences for everything you've already set.

  • I have an iTunes account. My iTunes on my computer shows about 100 songs. However, when I click on about 1/3 of the songs, they will play for about 15 seconds and quit. Anyone know what is going on?

    I have an iTunes account along with an older iPod and a new iPhone. My iTunes account shows about 50 songs on it. When I try to play about half of the songs, they play for 15 seconds and then it quits and goes on to the next song. Anybody have any ideas?

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • When I drag and drop contact from Address book to Entourage, they disappear

    ...within 24 hours or so. This has happened with 3 contacts now.
    Any ideas where to begin?

    Are you dragging directly from one application and dropping into the other? What happens if you export to vcf card then import the vcf card with the other application?

  • I'm unable to drag-and-drop a script from the Story window in Premiere Pro to a clip

    I have a film script visible in the Story window, and I try to drag it to the relevant clip in the Premiere Pro project window—but nothing happens.
    I have also tried to attach an astx file, but I get the "matching scene number not found" error, even though I put scene number 1 in the clip and in the astx.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Incidentally, though your help indicates that "all the scripts" you have in Story will be visible in the Story Windows in Premiere Pro, I can see only the film scripts—not for instance the multicolumn scripts I also have.  Is there something I can do about this?
    Thanks you,
    PIerre Sauvage

    Hi,
    Please make sure that you are performig drag drop with scenes and not complete scripts. You will notice a cursor change when you do so. For more clarification, please refer to this post. 'http://forums.adobe.com/message/5533247#5533247'.
    Importing astx is a much longer way to go through the same thing , so i would suggest to try out the drag drop workflow only and let me know in case you still face issues with it.
    Also, yes, column scripts wont be visible to you in the Story panel inside Premiere. For this, I am afraid you will have to convert your column scripts into a film script. Let me know if you need help with this.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • I am trying to transfer apps that are in my iTunes library to various devices through iTunes.  Music I can just drag and drop from library to device, but it will not let me do this for apps.  I'm updated to all the most recent version on devices/itunes.

    The weird things is that under my device Apps is not listed.  This is true for both my ipad and my iphone.  I do not Sync either of my devices with itunes, but do back them up.  Thanks.

    I'm guessing this is a problem unique to me as there have been no replies at all...  Thanks a bunch folks
