I can't share my iMovie '08 project with iDVD

I have created a project in iMovie '08 and want to burn it to DVD using iDVD.
The Apple Support (iMovie ’08: Burn your movie to DVD - Apple Support) says to go to the Share menu and choose Media Browser.
My version of iMovie does not show Share up at the top as in the illustration.
There is a Share under the File menu, but neither iDVD nor Media Browsers are options.
How do I get my project into Media Browser?
Thanks

OK i have over 500GB of space on hard drive and iDVD is installed. I've created many projects using these programs before but never had it freezing on me. The film is 13 minutes long and in the past I've produced filmd of 30 mins without a problem. Any suggestions?

  • Can't Share (export) iMovie 6 project to Canon HV20

    I'm running iMovie 6.0.4 under Mac OS 10.5.1.
    I keep encountering the same error when trying to export a completed iMovie project back to HDV tape. I select Share -> Video Camera but keep getting an error message saying "Cannot Export to Camera, Your FireWire camera is not powered on or is not available. This also can happen if you added or removed a device from FireWire. Please try again."
    Needless to say I've tried, tried and tried again trying a variety of different connection and powering-up processes. The camcorder is also in the correct mode.
    I have connected the camcorder before and been able to export completed iMovie projects. So I don't think it's a hardware issue or an incompatibility issue. The only thing I can possible think of is I might of been using 10.5 when I last successfully completed this process. I'm now using 10.5.1.
    So I'm at a loss. Has anyone experienced this before or know of a work around? I guess for now I'm going to "Share to a file, for sending to a camera later" and hopefully be able to export the completed project to tape in the future.

    I have the MacBookPro and Canon HV20. I use both iMovie08 and iMovie06HD. The 6HD allows me to (a) Produce a better quality DVD than the 08 does and (b) export the movie back to the MiniDV tape on my Canon HV20 camcorder. I use the DV-Firewire cable to connect the HV20 to MacBookPro. There is no problem when I transfer the movie from HV20 to MacBookPro, but I cannot transfer it from MacBookPro to HV20, no matter how many times I reload the 06HD. My camcorder is connected directly to the MacBookPro. Are you always able to transfer your movies from MacBookPro to your HV20? If yes, I will appreciate a step by step process you use. Thanks.

  • Trying to share a completed iMovie project with iDVD. iMovie keeps quitting. Why?

    I've been trying to share a completed iMovie project with iDVD. iMovie keeps quitting unexpectedly. Why does it keep crashing?

    Click on the button near the top of the window where it says Project Library (it toggles between Library and edit Project).
    Click just once on the name of the project, so that it highlights in blue.
    Go to File Menu > Duplicate Project. There will now be a second project with the same name, but with a number added to the end of the name
    Open that duplicated project by double-clicking it
    Lastly, Check out this Discussion Thread from September
    I movie quits unexpectedly during editing and publishing
    from Jasonryan1. It relates to a corrupted item existing in his project. And in his attempt to troubleshoot it, he suspected it was a Title he placed in the Project itself. Once he deleted the corrupted Title he was able to successfully export it. As to which item is causing instability, that's a tricky process to narrow down. And I would agree it seems unlikely all your projects could have some corrupted element in them. But it might work to concentrate on the simplest project which is showing the symptoms you describe. Duplicate that project and start deleting pieces of it and trying to add a Title to it and see if iMovie crashes. And that's not to say it's a title, it could just as easily be a picture, a transtion or a music clip that's preventing that project from being exported.

  • How can I share my mac book pro with my mac pro.

    Hi,
    Anyone know how can I share my mac book pro with my mac pro. At the moment I am in NewZealand and my Mac Pro is in UK. I used to share my both computer in UK in same network but I don't know how can I share with different network. Please help me.

    You can't, currently only the iPhone has the personal hotspot function, it hasn't been enabled on the iPad - whether it will be possible in the future I don't know

  • Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    If you got them from iBooks, then no. As far as I know, iBooks are linked to the Apple ID that downloaded them. If you got them via Kindle or the such, the apps may have a sharing function.
    If it's another app, then whatever  the rules of that app says is what works.
    If you're looking for e-books on a budget, check out your local library. Many have e-books you can check out for a period of time, and they either work with an app or are PDF files with some sort of time limit encoding in them

  • Can I share books purchased from Apple with other IPad users

    Can I share books purchased from Apple with other IPad users

    You can share them this way:
    Suppose you and the person you're trying to share with (I'll call her Jane) have two separate computers with two separate Apple IDs.  Each of those two computers have a current version of iTunes.
    You could copy your book from your version of iTunes over to Jane's.  How you do that depends on what types of computers you have, etc.
    So now your book is sitting in Jane's iTunes.  But you own the book, so Jane cannot access it.  What you have to do, then, is authorize Jane to access the book you bought.
    You do that on Jane's computer in iTunes by going to Store > Authorize This Computer in iTunes' menu.  Enter your Apple ID and password there.
    Then once Jane syncs her iPad to her iTunes, she will have access to your book.

  • Can I share purchased books from iBooks with separate iTunes accounts?

    Can I share purchased books from ibooks with separate iTunes accounts?

    While that's an understandable desire, the publishers don't want you buying a book and sharing it with multiple individuals who others would buy it. The inability to "share" a book or pass it on to a friend or relative when you're done is one of the drawbacks of ebooks vs traditional print ... And consider that when you pass on a real book to your wife, presumably you're not reading it at the same time. :-)
    Some other ebooks do allow limited (time-constrained) sharing of books - Barnes & Noble, for one, I believe - and they have an app for the iPad that would allow you to read books on it.

  • How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?

    How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?

    You can only do this by syncing your calendar to an external server - MobileMe is designed for this but if you don't already have a MobileMe account you can't start one now.
    If you do have a MobileMe account the method is described here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/sharedcalendar.html#publicshare
    If you don't, you could sync to Google Calendar (Google accounts are free) or wait for iCloud which should be out in a couple of months and will probably provide this sort of facility.
    You might like to consider BusyCal which is like iCal Pro - similar to iCal but with extra facilities. It can sync calendars on a Lan and also between accounts on the same machine (you have to have fast user switching enabled).
    There is a free trial available on their website: it's slightly cheaper from the Mac App Store. (I have no connection with this company).

  • HT4059 Can I share a book I purchased with a friend?

    Can i share a book I purchased with a friend and how?

    They are supposed to buy their own copy.  It doesn't work quite the same way with iBooks as with paper books.  You would have to authorize their device for your media and that would make things tricky in all kinds of ways.

  • How can I burn a DVD of an iMovie 13 project using iDVD 7.1.2 version.

    I have a late model iMac which came with iDVD.  I use iMovie to make photo and movie projects and share them to  iDVD to burn DVDs.  I use these often and I love them, specially iDVD.
    When Mavericks came out I updated and of course it changed iMovie.  I just finished a photo project with music on iMovie and planned to transfer it to iDVD for burning DVD.  This is a family project and I want to distribute copies to the rest of the family.
    It turns out that I cannot use iDVD with the new iMovie version and/or Mavericks.
    iDVD does not contain the buttons that it used to have on each theme in order to play the DVD. 
    I cannot drag the movie into iDVD.
    What can I do so that I can use iDVD when I have an iMovie project to burn it on a DVD. 
    I can go back to the previous version of iMovie and still have Mavericks.
    I do not know, I am lost.  Why doesnt this work without any problems when updating the operting system.  Apple should take into consideration all the previous applications etc when it makes an older computer able to update to more current system.
    I appreciate any help offered.
    Thank you

    Export the slideshow out of iMovie via the File  ➙  Share ➙ File menu option as a 480p Quicktime movie.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure 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, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is 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.

  • I can't share in iMovie 10?

    I recently downloaded iMovie to my iMac. I successfully created a short 30 sec project video in iMovie 10 but I can't share. The share button is dead

    Mackeeper is preventing it.  You have to uninstall iMovie and reinstall through the purchased apps on appstore.
    Worked for me (pain in rear though).
