I finalized my project. Where did it go? I want to upload it to DropBox.

I'm doing a project for grad school that is due in 4 hours. I finished it, hit finalize project, and now I'm trying to upload it to dropbox. It only saved the file as an iMovie project though so I can't upload it or email it, nothing. I tried to open it with iMovie to share it from there, but iMovie won't open it. What do I do now???

When you Finalize, you are rendering the project in all available sizes. They go in the Media Browser, so if you Share to iTunes, Share/Movie, Share to YouTube, Share Movie, it should be pretty much instantaneous, and if you access the movie from within GarageBand, iDVD, Pages, or Keynote, it is there in the Media Browser.
The media browser copy is physically located in the Movies/iMovie Projects/<your project name>.rcproject file.
This file is actually a package of files. You can right click on the .rcproject file and select "Show Package Contents" and then navigate to the Movies folder within the package. You should see them there.

  • Just installed ilife 11 and it deleted my movie project, where did it go

    Just installed ilife 11 and it deleted my movie project from the old version, where did it go

    Installing iMovie will not cause a project to be deleted, so it is probably there somewhere.
    What version of iMovie did you have before? Is everything on your internal drive, or do you have external drives?

  • Where did my music go?  I uploaded my library consisting of Apple store purchases, CDS's and Amazon purchases.  A small precentage shows up in itunes now

    Where did my music go?  I subscribed to aPPLE'S Cloud and uploaded a nice sized library consisting of Apple Store purchases, CD's I downloaded over a period of years, and some MP3 trax purchased from Amazon.  Now, only a few of my songs appear in iTunes.  There is no help that I can find not requiring the time and effort of a PhD candidate to research.  I'm looking for a quick answer -- is the Apple Cloud a fraud and I should get out of it, or am I a dummie because there is a quick and easy fix?

    I can't find mine either.  I had around 800 songs and now i have six!

  • Problems Searching metadata in a Final Cut Project Uploaded to FCS

    We had an intern go through some footage that was on our FCS and load it into a Final Cut Pro project. He then went through and cut up the footage, made it an Independent Clip in Final Cut, and then Renamed the clip. He created multiple clips in Final Cut which all link back to the big master clip which is in Final Cut Server.
    I then just uploaded the Final Cut Project which then created elements for all of the independent clips that were made in Final Cut. Upon closer inspection of the Final Cut Project in FCS, I noticed that in the elements of that project, it created all of the clips that we made independent. Great....almost. Two problems arose. All of the proxy files for those elements all have the same thumbnail based on the master clip, but do have the In/Out points when looking at the proxy file. Can you get the proxy file just to encode the In/Out points and make appropriate thumbnails?
    Problem 2:
    With these elements, when I perform a search with the exact filename of the element in the Final Cut project, it will only show me the Final Cut project. I have to open up that Final Cut project and then look into the Elements Folder of that project. Is there a way to search elements of a Final Cut project where the elements are reference files or metadata of a master clip within Final Cut Server?
    If this doesn't make sense, I'll try and re-explain.

    Yes, I did, but it doesn't show the element only the project and the master clip. In order to actually find it, I have to double-click the found Final Cut Project and then look into the elements tab. I'm trying now to figure out a way to make a custom lookup in the advanced search parameters that would allow me to only search Elements of a Final Cut Pro Project.

  • My project was not saved and is now gone...where did it go?

    Help
    My project was not saved and is now gone...where did it go?

    Check to see if Premiere autosaved your project. Open Premiere and start a new project.
    File Menu > Project Settings > Scratch Disks
    The last entry is 'Project Auto Saves'. See where this is pointing on your computer. If you are very lucky, Premiere may have autosaved your project from before and you'd be able to find it and open it that way.
    Otherwise, you won't be able to recover a project that wasn't saved.

  • Where did my project go??

    Hi everyone,
    I have been importing my videos from digital camcorder into iMovie '08 without any problems. With each tape it asks me 4 a project name and if I would like to continue from an old project or a new one. I always say new.
    Anyway, I had an two one hour tapes that I wanted to transfer and make it to one project. I did the first tape and called it home movie 1. When I got to the second tape it asked if I wanted to continue or start a new project and I said continue. Spent the hour transferring and when I got to the project, what I had transferred from tape one was completely gone!!
    I have no idea what happened. PLEASE if anyone can offer any suggestions I would be very grateful.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    There haven't been any updates to Prelude since December. And those are never forced upgrades.
    What was the location of your project? Did any volumes or driver letters move around?
    Prelude doesn't have a delete function for projects or media. Most we do is remove a reference to a file from a project, but never delete the actual media.
    Are you missing any other files? Have you run a disk utility to verify the integrity of your hard drive?
    Happy to help, but not sure where to go here yet.
    Regards,
    Michael

  • Hi all, my first time on.  I shared my imovie project to Media Browser.  Fine.  Then after it downloaded it 'disappeared.'  Where did it go?  Having found it, how do I then share it with idvd?  I am told the image quality will be much better this route.

    Hi
    I do
    • In iMovie - select a project
    • Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD or other res.)
    • Close iMovie
    • Open iDVD and select to start a New iDVD Project
    • Import movie - from Media button - down to the right - and here from Movies

  • Final Year Project Questionnaire... Please help me out!

    hi,
    i'm in the final year of my degree in multimedia, and i was hoping some nice people would help me out by answering some of these questions for my final year project. it would really be a great help to me....
    Introduction:
    For my final year project I am going to produce a website where people can create their own Flash game. I will make a game creator – an artefact which the users will be able to use to create their own game from nothing – using Flash, and then incorporate this into a website. The users will be able to create games using an interactive display – they will not have to write any code; and they can play their games, and other users’ games on the website. I want to make the game creator easy to use so almost anyone could do it, and make it so it’s fun to do as well. I would make many options available within the game creator so the user can really personalise their game and make it individual.
    Questions:
    Do you like the idea?
    What technical capabilities would you look for in this type of application? What do you think this application needs to perform its task? What options should be available?
    For the website?
    For the game creator application?
    How should it look visually? What kind of style do you think would be most fitting?
    Do you think ease of use and the ability to personalise is important in this application?
    What do you think are the most important aspects of an application like this? What would be the most important things that this could give you?
    Are there any other similar applications that you have used? Did you like or dislike these, and why?
    How often would you use it? Regularly, infrequently, once, never?
    What is your favourite game genre? What game genre would you like to create a game in? Platform, shooter, strategy, etc…
    How fast would you like to be able to create a game using this? Is the speed with which you can make a game more important than the variety of options available within the game creator?
    Where would you use this website? Home, school, travelling…
    Are there any other points you would like to mention?

    how do i make this code work...can smbody please do that

  • I had all of my video files that I work on in iMovie saved to an external hard drive exclusively to save space on my Macbook.  I had just finalized a project, went to work on another one and files couldn't be found, were not deleted how do I find them?

    I had all of my video files that I work on in iMovie saved to an external hard drive exclusively to save space on my Macbook.  The other day I had just finalized a project and went to work on another one and when I opened the project I could see what should have been there, but scrolling over the entire clip I would only see black and that the file was missing.  I did not drag anything on the hard drive to the trash or move anything.  How can I get those files?  These are videos of my kids and I am devastated and willing to try anything!

    Control click does not work - no option to find files.  I have no idea what to do.  When I look at the usage of the external drive the space is being used, but I cannot find the files.  I am going to try MacKeeper's Undelete and see if I can make any progress with it.

    I have a project that crashed on me when I was about to finish it. When I try to reopen Final Cut Pro it wouldn't open until I took the project out of the Final Cut Project folder. Can somebody tell me if this is a problem that has a solution? I cannot go back to the project at all.

    If you are using 10.0.3 or above Apple added a backups folder that for a little extra protection in cases like this. If you quite FCPX go to your Final Cut Pro Projects folder. Find the folder that has the project in question. If it has a backups folder there should be a file with a date stamp and .fcpproject extention, that is your back-up. Just move the back-up from that folder one folder up to the place where you deleted CurrentVersion.fcpproject from.  When I have had to do this I haven't renamed the backup but some people to recomend that you rename it to CurrentVersion.fcpproject and it seems to work both ways. Ofcourse it wont work if there is already a CurrenVersion file there you will need to delete that one first.
    If you don't have the backups folder or there is nothing in it I am not sure if there is anything that can be done.

  • Help me in Doing my Final Year Project

    Dear All,
    I am studying BSc in Computer Science in American International University Bangladesh (AIUB), Bangladesh. I want to work with Java Card. Actually I want to complete my final year project in Java Smart Card.
    I want to develop a Smart Card for student as mention in the link
    http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/examples.html
    1. when student insert the card in card accepantance device in entrance of the university all information(Name, ID,Photo, Department.....) will be displayed in the monitor of the entrance. After see the pic get keeper have no confusion about the student.
    2. Student can also use this card to use the facilities of Library and Cafe.
    Now dear all pls help me by proving this information.
    1. What kind of hardware i need to complete the project and successfully deploy it to my university. Pls tell me briefly and if possible then tell me the link where i can but it.(If the parts are available in UK then let me know. It will be easy for me to collect parts from there).
    2. What kind of Smart Card I have to use exactly.
    3. If anyone ever develope this kind of project then pls email me at [email protected]
    4. If possible then pls let me know the price of this hardware.
    Its very vey urgent. I know all Java lover will definetly help me.
    I am waiting for reply

    I want to develop a Smart Card for student as mention
    in the link
    http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/examples.html
    Well then you have a number of points that can be solved very differently. Does exist any legacy hardware or software that need to be included into your project?
    1. when student insert the card in card accepantance
    device in entrance of the university all
    information(Name, ID,Photo, Department.....) will be
    displayed in the monitor of the entrance. After see
    the pic get keeper have no confusion about the
    student.Where do you want do store the student information? On card or in a centralised database? Who should be able to change information?
    2. Student can also use this card to use the
    facilities of Library and Cafe.Looks like money comes into play. "Stealing money" is always a good impulsion for any attacker. You should consider this in your system design.
    1. What kind of hardware i need to complete the
    project and successfully deploy it to my university.Sorry, but except for the hardware parts "chipcard terminal" (with or without pin-pad) and several smartcards I can give you only the answer: "That depends on what you want to achieve and how you want to do it"
    2. What kind of Smart Card I have to use exactly.If you want to store the student image on the card, on of your main requirements would be a smartcard that has enough EEPROM for storing the image. Common JavaCards have 10 to 30kb for data and the applet code.

  • Import From Elements - where did it go

    I noticed that the Michael Tapes 'Import' video showed an 'Import From Elements' menu item on the file menu. I have the 4.1 beta installed and this item does not appear in the file menu. Where did it go or is there another way to import a PSE catalog straight into LR.
    Here is the video site:
    http://pictureflow.fileburst.com/_Tutorials/Photoshop_LR/01/index.html

    I'm hoping that this whole process is unnecessary. By seeing the "Import from Elements" option, I am currently hoping/assuming that this means it will import the actual PSE Organizer catalog into LR. PSE Organizer uses .psa files for each catalog. I am hoping that by selecting the "Import from Elements" options, LR will take your .psa file (Photoshop Elements Organizer Catalog) and convert it into a .aglib file (Lightroom Library). The tags, categories and subcategories should be converted to the Lightroom equivalent of keywords, parent keywords, and child keywords (or whatever they're called in LR). In doing this, there should be no preparation of anything in PSE Organizer. If I'm understanding what Susan just said she did, it seems that the actions you just took Susan by making everything a category just took away all hierarchical tags (or parent/child information), for their is no heirarchy in the IPTC keywords fields, unless I'm mistaken.
    Once again, I'm assuming this is how it will work and I hope I'm right . . . any other way just doesn't seem to make any sense. The "Import from Elements" option would not be needed if you've already embedded all of your tags into the files (or made all of your tags into categories and embedded that). If that information is already embedded in the file, then just import the files through the typical import dialog and it will find that information. There is no need to worry about the catalog or the "Import from Elements" command at all. My hope is that I don't need to do this and I can just convert the catalog on the fly (much like when you upgrade from say PSE Organizer version 3 to PSE Organizer version 5). Regardless, I will wait until LR is released before I take any steps to start the conversion process. I don't want to compomise something that I've spent years creating and works great already because I'm guessing or assuming how something may or may not work. I guess we shall all know soon enough (or even sooner if a final release tester can confirm this in any way).

  • My final cut project reverted to an earlier version

    I made a lot of changes to my final cut project today and saved the changes frequently. I just came back to my computer, opened my project and it looked like I never sat down at my computer today! I am positive I saved my changes, but the project went back to the original project I had when I first opened it up today. Anyone have an idea what happened or what might have happened?
    Thanks

    Well.......I don't know if this is right or wrong?
    I recently started being concerned about backing-up projects, so this is what I do: put all media and project files on one of my LaCie harddrives.
    The new thing I have been doing is coping the project file (.fcp) at the end of the day on my desk top, as my back up. Did this cause the problem and why?
    Thanks
