I have iMovie but when I go to create a DVD it doesn't launch iDVD - I understood that iDVD was part of the package
I have iMovie and have created a project that I want burn to DVD
The help tells me it will launch iDVD after finalising and rendering the project but this doesn't happen
Also I can't find iDVD in my applications
I thought iDVD was part of the iMovie package.
Am I wrong and if so how do I get iDVD?
Apple no longer includes iDVD on Macs running Lion.
Apple believes that the entire world has access to fast broadband and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. If you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone Apple may send you a free copy of iDVD. That worked for some, but is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple. Also, you can complain bitterly here, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between using iCloud and burning DVDs:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast.
And if you think Microsoft are any better, their new Windows 8 operating system will not play DVDs, or burn them, unless customers buy an extra upgrade, the company has announced.
In other words, computer manufacturers have declared optical media as dead, long before consumers are ready to stop using them, which is fine as long as they offered us a choice, but they won’t even do that.

Before rettoring you need to place the iPod in recover ymode and then restore. For recovery mode:

I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube, some of the photo near the beginning were corrupted on youtube. I tried a different photo, and the corruption took place at the same moment of the video. How do I prepare the video for export to get it ready for youtube? I wasn't sure whether to clik web or web streaming. Am I supposed to clik Quick Time after I clik Share?
I unfortunately cannot remember where I got the 'trrndlines' plugin... I assume that it must have been from CFX (as it is located under /Users/Dom/Library/iMovie/Plug-ins/cfx/XXXtrrndlines.bundle).
As for what it does, I also do not know, as I do not think I ever used it in my previous video projects.
At this stage, I think I just need to uninstall it so that iMovie doesnt try to use it.
Do you know how to uninstall a CFX plugin in iMovie?
NOTE: I have re-installed iMovie 6.0.4 (instead of iMovie 6.0.3), but still encounter the same issue. -
I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser, some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?
I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
Here is the work around:
Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library. -
Audio is fine in iMovie, but when exported its not?
I'm using iMovie 09.
All the clips I've put in I've detatched the audio from and then deleted. I've put my own audio track over the top of everything. The audio is fine throughout when I'm watching in iMovie, but when I export, in about the last 5 clips I can hear the audio track of the individual clips which was supposed to be deleted on top of my audio track.
Does anyone have any idea what could be going on?After a bit of research I've found that this problem seems to be a bug with iMovie 09 when you change the speed of clips to something other then the default options (e.g 108%).
I ended up getting around it by creating a new project, putting just the clip with the speed changed into it and exporting that. Then converted the exported file to a different format, then imported it back into iMovie and put it back into my original piece. This way the speed was at 100%
Seems to have worked
Hopefuly this will save someone else a bit of headache. -
Why is my video perfect in iMovies but when I try to share it in ANY mode it is jittery? Any info would be great. Thank you
Hi,
AcidSearch is causing the problems for you (and would most likely have been the cause of the problems with Safari 3 as well):
0x20eb000 - 0x20edfff net.culater.SIMBL 0.8.2 (8) /Library/InputManagers/SIMBL/SIMBL.bundle/Contents/MacOS/SIMBL
0x2528000 - 0x255cfff com.pozytron.AcidSearch ??? (0.7b4) /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/AcidSearch.bundle/Contents/MacOS/AcidSearch
Delete the 2 folders highlighted above and then retry Safari.
Hope that helps. -
I have been working on an iMovie project. I turned off my computer and when I turned it back on to continue working and entire section of about 80 photos was gone. The music attached to these photos remains. Can I retrieve this work?
I am at Snow Leopard and have only played a bit in IMOVIE - so can't speak for Mavericks - but -
In general as I work a lot in Photoshop - when you are happy with something save it and continue on - If you have Time Machine Running and you want to try things next that may or may not work - force a time machine backup - that way the version you are happy with will be available for 24 hours (and wish this was a setting one could extend)
If you turn off your mac - or end a program without consciously saving something you may lose what you worked on.
If IMOVIE did not ask if you want to recover what you were doing your update may be gone - but try posting new question - asking about automatic backups in IMOVIE and how they work. -
i edited a movie on iMovie but when i try to upload it to youtube only half the video shows ( its only 3 minutes long) does it need converted? help?????
I have the same issue. If you are exporting from iMovie version 10.0.1, I run into the same issues if I export directly to YouTube or if I export to file then upload to YouTube.
Google's help file doesn't properly address this problem and thier help is also out of date. In talking to a support rep at Apple, they said the export to YouTube should just work or the exporting to a file then uploading otherwise it's an issue for Google support.
If someone can post a solution that works (is a streamable format - which is different than the format that YouTube accepts as it will accept many formats but take a long time to process them), I'd be interested to hear also.
Thanks,
Rob. -

I have money in my itunes account but when I try to buy a song it doesn't let me buy it or download. It doesn't do anything!
You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if the article doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
Changing the rescue email address requires supplying two of the answers. They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
