I life sound effects not showing in imovie 08

whenever i'm in imovie 08 and i click on the ilife sound effects folder, then click on animals i don't have any sound clips to choose from. there are sound clips in there but they are all .caf files. does imovie not read .caf or is there a quick easy way to convert them to.mp3 files ?

Mmmm strange . the sound files should be .aif, what happens if you simply change the file extension from .caf to .aif (I've not come across .caf before. They are located in library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound effects.

Why does I pad volume show sound effects not volume

My I pad used to show volume control now it shows sound effects. Also keyboard clicks not working

All these effects are part of the loops in the iLife Sound effects loop package, that was a part of the application bundle iLIfe '11 (iPhoto. iMovie, GarageBand '11). These loops are neither installed by GarageBand 10.0 or GarageBand '11, nor MacOs X, you need an iLife '11 installer disk to get these loops.
And GarageBand 10 also does not have the Sound Effects instruments any longer, that let you drag samples onto keys. It is one of the sorely missed features, that have been discontinued in the new version GarageBand 10. even if you install the previous version, GarageBAnd '11, to add the Sound effects instrument to GarageBand 10. it will not work properly, because GarageBand 10 will not save the custom instrument with the samples. You will have to complete your song in one session, without quitting GarageBand.
You may want to send feedback to the Apple Developers about these missing features with a feature request: Apple - GarageBand Mac- Feedback

My downloaded text sounds do not show up under the sounds tab in settings after installing 8.1.1. can someone help me please?

i downloaded a couple text tones and since installing 8.1.1, they will not show up under the sounds tab. in fact, they do not show up in my recent purchases on itunes, but when i go to buy them again, it says that i have already bought this tone. I just want to use the tones i paid for as the tones on my phone. not asking much.... thanks for the help. i hope someone can help me get the tones working. thank you.

This was happening to me too but only for some of my songs. I have a mac so I dunno about PCs, but for most of my ringtones I had to create an ACC version in itunes to make them short enough then turn that into a m4r and those all worked fine. But if the song was already short enough and I didn't create an ACC version and just turned the original into a m4r, then it wouldn't appear in my itunes.
so if you're on a mac:
1. go to get info, options, pick when you want the song to start and end.
     Has to be pretty short to work, 30 second or less is good
     if it's already short enough that's fine
2. right click and click 'create ACC version'
     a copy with the length you put in will appear, drag that into a folder or whatever and just type in m4r where m4a would be
     still make an ACC version even if it's the right length
Hopefully this helps someone else.

Lighting effects not showing up in CS5

This plug-in is not showing up on both CS5 and CS 5.1 running on a MAC OSX 10.6.7 Italian system. I have tried both from the Italian versions of PS and even from one new version in English of PS5.1 and it isn't to be found under the menu "rendering" or enywhere else. I see that it is in the plug.in folder and the folder of lighting effects is there as well, but it just doesn't show up. Any ideas about this bug? I've tried it on 3 different computers!

As far as i know, the lighting effects filter only works in the 32 bit version of
photoshop cs5/5.1 on a mac system.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-7959a.h tml
There is also a photoshop macintosh forum (you posted in the photoshop elements forum)
http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/photoshop_macintosh
Added: If you have the extended version of cs5, you might experiment using 3d lights
for lighting effects, which works in the 64 bit version of cs5. Turn your layer into a
3d postcard and use the 3d lights for various lighting effects.

Sound effects not working

Suddenly my iPad 3 with Retina display isn't playing sound effects in many apps. Music and videos playback audio fine. Sound effects in the Settings app work fine.
I can change the sound effect for sending Mail through the Settings app and hear what it should sound like, but when I send mail through the Mail app, I hear nothing. Some 3rd party apps sound fine, while others are now missing sound effects.

Hi atennant2,
This might be caused by account settings.
If you have multiple accounts on your Mac sometimes when you do a fast
userswitch settings of the previous account don't update. If the previous user
had the volume muted in his settings, the account switch might not reset
this to the settings you set in your account. Now an os update or big server
maintenance, account cleaning session can cause these issues as well.
Try to log in to the account you used previously, make sure that sound
settings are ok, When sound is working now it's ok for your other account.
Hope it works,
JP
(if not: check in system profile wether there are Garageband folders (2) marked as "Classic", delete them.
Enable speech in the system preferences, restart)

Sound effects not working after upgrade

After upgrading to Yosemite, my system sound effects are no longer working. Instead of hearing my selected Basso sound, my entire screen flashes. Other sounds, such as the audio track of a video, still work fine. If I use the "afplay" command I can hear a system sound. I also get sounds for incoming and outgoing mail. But clicking one of the system alert sounds in the "Sounds" preference pane does nothing audible, and in other places where I used to get a Basso sound, my screen flashes instead. I'm aware of the Accessibility option that gives the screen flash in lieu of an audible alert, but that is turned off, and I have tried turning it on and back off again, to no avail. My "Alert volume" is all the way up in the "Sounds" preference pane, and I've slid that back and forth too.
Can anyone suggest a way to reset whatever got confused in the upgrade, and get my alert sounds back?
I'm on a 13" mid-2009 MacBook Pro, if that matters.
Thanks!

I had same exact problem - Reset PRAM and not works fine. I followed instructions here, and step 5 fixed it: http://www.iphonetopics.com/no-sound-after-upgrading-to-os-x-yosemite/

Sound Effects Not working Correctly in Mail 6.0 or Notification Center...

I recently installed Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro (2012 Retina Screen, 2.7 GHz Core i7, 16 GB RAM) and all the sound effects are no longer working in the new version of Mail 6.0. There are also Sound Effect problems with the Notification Center.
I double checked and all my settings appear to be correct in Mail and in the Sounds & Notification Center Pref Panes. I also did a PRAM reset to see if that would fix it, and that made no difference either. In Mail, only some sounds are working. I still get the swoosh sound when mail is sent but not any of the other sounds like when email is deleted or received. Also, my speakers are working fine for audio etc.
I called Apple Care and the technician had me on the phone for a while and researched this, but said he could find nothing that was known or had been reported on this issue. As an FYI, to the best of my knowledge I'm not running any incompatible apps. Every app I am running is listed as being compatible with ML.
Has anyone else had this issue with the Mail and Notification Center Sound Effects? I would appreciate any solutions or suggestions.
Thanks...
Patrick

Patrick,
I have experienced the same symptoms.
Opening Audio MIDI Setup, and changing the Built-in Output>Format to another choice (2ch-20bit Integer) and then back to the prvious setting (2ch-24bit Integer) briefly fixes the lack of Mail sounds, but unfortunately the problem eventually returns after computer sleep.
I have tried a Safe Boot, and removed the Audio MIDI plist without success.

*Some* movies in iPhoto not showing in iMovie

Over the last few years I have shot many movies on my Canon S400 and loaded them into iPhoto. All my movies are .avi format. However, iMovie is not recognizing them all so some are not showing up in the Event Library. This problem appeared directly after the last update when it rebuilt the thumbnail library. Does anyone know how to get iMovie to recognize the previously viewable videos?

Thanks, but I need to clarify - this is not a matter of iMovie 08 not recognizing compressed formats. All the movies are from the same camera, as raw .avi's, and non-compressed or edited in any way.
Please clarify further. Am interested in how you define what "raw AVI" is. Have never heard of any form of digitized audio or digitized video that was not coded (i.e., compressed) in one form or another. Please explain how that works. Better yet, please post a screen capture of of the QT Player "Inspector" window showing the format of this "raw AVI."
iMovie is for some reason erroneously not seeing some of them.
As stated above, iMovie '08 can't "see" anything it can't edit.
I was able to export one of the "unseen" videos to my desktop and import it into iMovie 08 from there
I hate to break the news to you, but exporting, by definition, implies a re-compression of the file. And, unless you exported to the very same compression format with the very same settings, you have "converted" the file. In fact, even then, the possibility exists that the file may have been 'flattened" with the end result that an incompatible track may have been discarded or merged into the core audio/video tracks and thus made the file compatible.
but that's a lot of needless hassle.
Better get used to it. Until you can show that both the audio and video tracks are compatible and that there is no other content (such as a "Tween" track) included in the file, there exists at least a presumption that your AVI files as uploaded from your digital camera may not be "edit" compatible with iMovie '08. You can, of course check on this yourself by comparing the the "Inspector" information of you non-importing files with that of your imported file.
All the videos are in the same .avi format.
Are you sure. Some digital cameras have multiple video clip modes which may either changed settings within the same compression formats or actually change the compression formats.
All of them were recognized and worked just fine before the last update. Now, some get recognized by iMovie 08, some others don't.
Apple may have changed "error trapping" routines for the update you referenced. It may be checking intersects of audio data rates against audio sampling rate "standards" now. If you check export combinations you will find that only certain combinations are allowed in QT. Once again, you could help yourself tremendously by simply comparing the statistics of files that work with those of ones that don't work.
This is NOT as issue due to compression formats.
You keep saying this but offer nothing in the way of evidence to support your assertions.

Effects not showing up in LiveType

Hello - I am trying to apply an effect in LiveType, and while it looks like it's going into the timeline, there is nothing there. It looks as though the effect has been applied to the timeline, as it says the name of the effect, but the effect does not show up... thank you.

Hey Nick - thanks for offering to help! Turns out all I did was close out of LIveType, then open it back up again, then the Effects seemed to work, though don't how, as I did not do anything different before I closed it out... hmmm... ok then, thank you again!

Plugin Effects not showing up in FCPX

Hi,
I recently bought a new computer. I installed FCPX and copied my plugin effects to the movie folder (motion templates, etc.) the same way I had them working in my old computer, but the effects are not showing up in FCPX when I launch the Application. I read somewhere that it might be a permission issue so I ran disk utility but it didn't make a difference. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Marc

I know this is an old thread but I had the same issue. Found this on Apple's Motion help document. This was very helpful:
.moef is the Final Cut Effect template extension.
.motn is the Final Cut Generator template extension.
.moti is the Final Cut Title template extension.
.motr is the Final Cut Transition template extension.
Just be sure your templates are in the right folder. I had downloaded a template that I thought was a title but ended in .motn, which meant it was supposed to be in the /Movies/Motion Templates/Generators/ folder. Good luck!

Videos not showing in iMovie for iPad

Hey all
I just downloaded a bunch of videos from my camcorder to my PC... Then proceeded to put those vids on my new iPad. I'm trying to edit tthe videos in iMovie but they are not showing up. I already did the locations services so that is not it. Does anybody know what needs to be done?

Hi
iMovie needs iPhoto and other components in iLife bundle to address their respective libraries. if they point to a newer one - iMovie will not find the old material.
So close all
Open iPhoto and select the right library - open
Now open iMovie and let it up-date thumbnails photos
Does it work better now ?
Yours Bengt W
