I just opened imovie and my most recent project was gone! how do I recover it?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • I recently updated iMovie. After I updated it I made a project. When I exited I movie and reopened it my project was gone. Is there anyway to get it back?

    I worked on the project for a few days, however I did not exit it out. I tried to "Share" the movie into a file/ to itunes but nothing happened. I restarted imovie to see if it would help. Before I quit it said "Tasks that are currently in progress will not be completed." I exited anyway. When I opened up I movie my project was gone. I worked my butt off on this project and spent hours on end editing it. Is there anyway i can get it back? P.S the file is gone from my computer completly as far as I can tell.

    If it helps, I do have a file from trying to export it, however it didn't finish exporting properly, and therefore won't open. I've attached the file below. If anyone has any idea of how to open the file, or restore my iMovie project, it would be of great help. Thank you.

  • I turned on my computer, opened FireFox and my scrapbook add-on was gone. I had 100's of extremely important sites saved. Is there anyway to recover them?

    I had over 100's of sites saved for my business. I had an update popping up that said "you might lose certain add-ons", so I never updated. I shut my computer down and when I truned it back on and opened the Firefox browser, Everything I've been researching the last 6 months were gone. Can anyone help? this could be devastating to the future of my business. Thanks!

    You didn't lose your add-on, it has just been Disabled because it is not Compatible with the latest version of Firefox that you are using now.
    Try using this extension to Force Compatibility.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
    If Force Compatibility add-on works, immediately make a Backup of your sites by using Firefox Bookmarks feature.
    How do I use Bookmarks? https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/how-do-i-use-bookmarks
    If Force Compatibility add-on does not work, then you can Downgrade to the previous version of Firefox that you were using.

  • Just imported clips and edited as new project. closed imovie. came back later and the entire project was gone. i was not done so i did not finalize it. how do i get the program to keep my project in progress

    running imovie on a powermac w 10.6.8. went through the tutorials. imported my clips, got the hang of basic editing, and created a project.
    was pretty happy with it, but needed to shut down and come back to work on it later. when i did come back, the entire project was gone.
    how do i get the program to save my work in progress, without finalizing it?
    thanks

    So, everything worked out just fine!
    I have all my material in the ProRes Codec on a seperate drive now. The project itself was kept or rather duplicated, the bin structure etc stayed the same but is linking to the newly created files. The playback and workflow is fluent. I am happy! 
    Time info: For about 120 GB of material the codec change process took 25 hours.
    Thanks for your help!

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Iphoto and facebook - most recent photos not showing up in file upload!!

    on iphoto, all the photos are fine and the most recent photos i import are in the recent import folder like they should be. i'm trying to upload a new profile picture to facebook but when i go to file upload and then click on iphoto to find the picture, it's not there, along with the rest of the recently imported photos. the most "recent photos" when i go to file upload are photos i imported from september 24, 2009 and i have imported a bunch of pictures after that date that aren't showing up when i go to file upload. i already tried rebuilding my library and all that but it didn't do anything. help?

    I just started having this same problem. New events are not appearing in the media browser section of the file upload window. The last event to show up is from October 12th. I tried several different websites and browsers.
    They are fine in iPhoto and the files show up in the "All Images" section of the Finder.

  • LE8 not opening most recent project

    I've encountered this problem in the past few weeks - possibly after I installed SL. When I close a project and quit LE, and then re-open it, LE shows me the "New..." screen. Also, the "Recent Projects" tab in the "File" menu is no longer there. Any ideas? (Yes, the Startup Action is set to "open most recent project." Thanks.

    I would check you're preferences on the program to make sure nothing has changed. I's also check for updates to both Snow Leopard and Logic Express 9. Both programs have had revisions since they've been released to repair some unforseen issues.

  • Can I open imovie and record canon hf20 file

    I just bought the canon hf20 digital camera and I want to make movies of me talking/logging with it. I want to use it the same way my isight webcam works. I want to open imovie and record, just as i would with my webcam, but with the digital camera. I have googled and researched for days and can't figure it out

    The HF20 produces .MTS file format, belongs to (AVCHD) high-definition files. iMoive supports well video files in .MOV, .MP4, DV, so try to change the HF20 video to one of those formats, and import into iMoive for editing. you may want to give a shot with this:

  • I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  I went ahead and backed up and found that my texts, phone calls and messages did not backup.

    I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12.  I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup. 
    Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today?  Please help if you can...thanks!

    I found the answer on:
    transferring Txt messages from old phone to new iphone 4
    It worked great!

    Scrappy1 what do you mean exactly by doing a scan?
    Under Windows 7 you will want to use the Programs and Features Control Panel to remove your installation.  I would recommend verifying that Photoshop Lightroom is removed from the list of installed applications.

    Simply restore from your backup.
    You do have Time Machine running, yes?
    Or you use some other backup program?

  • Each time my iMac reboots i am prompted to enter my FaceTime password.  This just started occurring after the most recent security update.

    Each time my iMac reboots I am prompted to enter my FaceTime password.  This just started occurring after the most recent security update.  When I put my password in the pop up just comes back, if I press cancle it goes away.  Any ideas on how to get rid of this annoying popup?

    I had the same problem. Try this. Launch FaceTime. Click the toggle to turn it off; or Command-K. Quit. Do a restart, you shouldn't get the popup. You could then turn FaceTime back on if you wish. Either way, the popup should be gone from then on.
