I copied a series of events in iMovie 10.0.5 to another Mac and can't open the library

I took a series of events on my SOURCE MAC computer, and created a NEW LIBRARY with them on a SECOND MAC computer.  Now when I try to open the file from either the SOURCE MAC  or the SECOND MAC  I get the following error:
The operation couldn’t be completed. Permission denied   “iMovie Library MiniDV” is already in use by “SOURCE COMPUTER UID” on “SOURCE COMPUTER NAME”
I checked the permissions and ownership of the file on the SECOND MAC and it shows my SECOND MAC USERID as having READ/WRITE authority.
Any ideas?  I can't find anyway around this -- have restarted both computers as well

There is no precise way but as long as you have unchecked "Wrapping Timeline" in the "View" menu the approximate time of the start of each clip is displayed at the top of the timeline.  You can also add the durations of each of the clips which are shown as you hover the cursor over them.

  • Very Upset!!!! Want update MY iMovie and can't open the pervious verion

    I am very upset because I was forced to run the updat after I updated my system. Now I can't even open iMovie and finish my music Video. I am completely lost and don't know how to solve my problem

    If you updated to iMovie version 10 you'll find that its install doesn't remove iMovie version 9 from your computer.
    You can use both versions.

    First, Share your other project. Use SHARE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME. Choose Movie to QuickTime Movie. Under Options, choose Apple Intermediate Codec for Compression under Video Options. Save this movie where you can find it.
    Then use FILE/IMPORT MOVIE to import this movie into your Event. Now you can use it as a Cutaway.

    You can't change the way Pages import .doc files.
    It was never written that it reproduce exactly the original one.

  • I just backed up my photos by copying my iPhoto Library onto an external drive. Now the Library on my MacBook won't open. I can only open the photos if the external is plugged in. How can I resolve this issue?

    I just backed up my photos by copying my iPhoto Library onto an external drive. Now the Library on my MacBook won't open. I can only open the photos if the external is plugged in. How can I resolve this issue?

    Exactly what did you do?
    The correct steps are
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    My guess is that that you have not switched iphoto to use the external drive yet - opttion launch and select libary

  • Got an error message "You can't open the application iMovie because it may be damaged or incomplete"  What do I do next to try to fix?  Thanks.

    I tried accessing imovie after not using it for a long time and got an error message "You can't open the application iMovie because it is damaged or incomplete. I'm not sure how to go about addressing it.  Your suggestions would be very much apprecaited.

    Judging by your OSX, I presume that your iMac would have come with 2 installation discs.
    iMovie and all the iLife software will be on disc 2.
    Run the disc and re-install iMovie.
    After that, do a software update.,
    Best,

    I have the same problem. I'm using Mavericks OS and latest iMovie. Both downloaded last week. I save the movie into File (as directed) and  QuickTime

  • I can't open the inspector window in iMovie 11.

    Hi everyone. I'm working on a project in iMovie 11 and suddenly I can't open the inspector window. I really can use some help. Maybe by mistake I hit a button. Thanks

    Normally you open the inspector by clicking on the little gear icon in a clip. If that is not working, I would suggest...
    1) Shut down iMovie.
    2) Trash the iMovie Preferences. See this post for instructions.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4061
    3) If that still does not work, delete the iMovie App and reinstall from the App store.
    4) If that still does not work, reinstall OSX.

    I think you have downloaded .img file. If you want to install that program follow the given instruction.
    download open source magic disc viewer software.

  • How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when opening the program to digitize new clips for new project. i have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what to disable.

    How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when first opening the program to digitize new clips for a new project. It takes forever for it and is very annoying. I have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what would disable this problem.

    You do not need to move your cursor much when pressing the mouse button to cause the tab to tear-off/tear-away into a new tab. No "sensitivity" setting that I am aware of. The tab in the new window can be dragged back to the original window.
    To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/

  • Events showing up many times in iCal on Mac and iPhone

    Certain events are showing up many times within my iCal and iPhone. These are clearly duplicate events and can show up as much as 50 times or more on the same day at the same time. Some additional background:
    1. I use mobileme and have my iCal syched through Mobile Me
    2. I have a gmail calendar that is synching (these events do not appear to be duplicating)
    3. I synch my iPhone calendar with my work PC through a USB chord. My work PC uses MS Outlook. Some of these events are duplicated. Especially annual events such as birthdays.
    4. I have set my wife's calendar to publish and I have subscribed to her calendar. She has a far more extensive issue of events duplicating and these duplications show up on my iPhone since I subscribe to her calendar.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hi Martin,
    Are you using MobileMe? Are you syncing the events to the iPhone through iTunes or pushing them over the air with MobileMe?
    If you are using MobileMe you can set the Time Zone online at http://www.me.com/calendar/ click the Gear> Preferences> Advanced.
    Try turning off Time Zone Support on the iPhone, tap Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Time Zone Support, off.
    Did that change the time on the events?
    If you are not using MobileMe or that does not resolve the issue, try the tips below.
    If the Time Zone Support is on in iCal, try disabling it. Go to iCal>Preferences> Advanced> uncheck Turn on time zone support. You can change Time Zones of events in iCal as described in the iCal help article: "Changing the time zone for an event"
    If the issue persists try resetting the sync history as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA23030 and then syncing the calendar events to the iPhone again.
