I'm making a DVD for our class reunion.  A fellow classmate has some video on a mini cassette that he said he could put on a dvd.  Will I be able to import from that dvd to imovie to use in my dvd?  Or does it have to be in another format, maybe flash drive? 

Ask your friend to supply you the DVD as a data DVD using either DV or AIC as the video format, burning the DVD as a DVD for a DVD player will degrade the video quality.

  • HT3775 How do I obtain audio on mpg files imported from my camcorder to iMovie'11 version 9.0.6?

    I've previously been able to import from my Sony camcorder with no audio issues (as recently as June), but for some reason my last import is mute. Playing from the camera the audio is clear but when imported into iMovie all the footage is there, just no audio.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hey Yvo1.
    You'll get a better response to your question if you go to the iMovie Discussions. Most people who come here don't work with iMovie all that much.
    Good luck.

    I used to use the free version of Adobe Reader to convert my publisher files to pdf files. When I was making a booklet for our hockey team, it said I had to buy it. Now I bought it and it won't convert the files. I am ready to throw this computer out the window!! Can you tell me what is the problem? No it does not exceed 100 M. either.

    Adobe Reader never converted Publisher files to PDF, for free, never. I suspect you use to have the (paid for) Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes people have Acrobat (more than $300 worth) and install Adobe Reader over the top, losing that valuable software.
    That said, if you subscribed to PDF Pack it should do this conversion. What exactly happens now.

  • Video clips imported from an iPhone into iMovie ver 6 are rotated 90 degrees; how can I fix this or avoid it?

    Video clips imported from an iPhone into iMovie ver 6 are rotated 90 degrees; how can I fix this or avoid it?

    iMovie works best with uncompressed audio. If your track is MP3 or AAC, you may get better results by converting your track to the AIFF format and then using that in iMovie.
    You can do this in iTunes. Go to iTunes/Preferences and click the General button. On the General page, click the Import Settings button. Choose IMPORT USING: AIFF ENCODER.
    (note: remember what you changed it from so you can change it back later, before you import another CD)
    Now, in iTunes, select your track. Then click FILE/CREATE NEW VERSION/AIFF VERSION.

  • Used to be able to import from Panasonic NV-GS120(DV), but now can't

    Hi,
    I have been able to import from our Panasonic NV-GS120 (DV) camera numerous times before using Imovie. However, now Imovie detects the camera, but when I go to push the "play" button to start the import process, the computer hangs. I have no idea as to why all of a sudden it doesn't want to work!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Test another FW-Cable.
    Test Your Camera on another Mac so that DV-in still works OK
    Toogle in iMovie pref: Play-back via Camera (on<->off some times)
    Other ways to import Your miniDV tape:
    Use another Camera. There where tape play-back stations from SONY
    but they costed about 2-4 times a normal miniDV Camera.
    If Your Camera works on another Mac. Make an iMovie movie project here and move it
    over to Your Mac via an external hard disk.
    (HAS TO BE Mac OS Exchange formatted - USB/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange WILL NOT DO)
    (Should be a FireWire one - USB/USB2 performs badly)
    FireWire - Sure not using the accompany USB-Cable but bought a 4-pin to 6-pin FW one ?
    Using WHAT ? :
    • Mac OS - X.5.4 ?
    • QuickTime version ? (This is the heart in both iMovie and FinalCut)
    • iMovie 8 (7.1.?) ?
    Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? (Others don't count)
    Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?
    Sorry to say it is to easy to turn the 6-pin end of the FW-cable 180 deg wrong.
    This is lethal to the A/D-chip in the Camera = needs an expensive repair.
    (Hard to find out - else than import/export to another Mac ceased to work
    everything else is OK eg recording and playback to TV)
    Delete iMovie pref file may help sometimes. I rather start a new account, log into
    this and have a re-try.
    from LKN 1935:
    Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935
    from Karsten:
    in addition to Bengt's excellent '9 yards of advice' ..
    camera set to 'Play' , not rec/computer/etc.?
    camera not on battery, but power-line?
    did your Mac 'recognize' this camera before...?
    a technical check:
    connect camera, on, playback, fw-connected...
    click on the Blue Apple, upper left of your screen ..
    choose 'About../More..
    under Firewire.. what do you read..?
    Yours Bengt W

  • Import from current location ... when using a memory card

    This thread from a long time ago seems to indicate it can't be done.  Is this still true?
    Re: Lightroom 4.3 won't add to catalog without moving
    If so -- why?  I often use my large CF and SD cards as temporary external hard drives... it would be great to be able to import from them.  This is particularly true on my laptop -- which has limited HDD space, but has a built-in card reader.
    If the issue in the above thread has been fixed, and there is, indeed, a way to import from a card without copying...   how can it be done?  I can't seem to find it in LR 5.5.   The only work around I've found is to import them from an actual HDD on a different system... then I can move that catalog to the laptop and use 'find missing folder' to point the missing folder to the memory card.   Obviously this takes forever and is hideously inefficient.

    It can be done using a plugin like OttomanicImporter (or FileListener), or a script like in MiscLrScripts (e.g. "Choose files via OS and add to catalog.."). - those were written by me, and are free.

  • If I subscribe to Creative Cloud Photography, will I be able to upload from Lightroom to my Prosite website - which I have already paid for?

    If I subscribe to Creative Cloud Photography @ £8.78 per month, will I be able to upload from Lightroom to a Prosite website - which I have already paid for? I'm trying to avoid subscribing to Single App @ an extra £17.58 a month if I can pay $99 per year for Prosite independently from a Creative Cloud subscription?

    You will likely get better program help in a program forum Photoshop Lightroom
    The Cloud forum is not about using individual programs
    The Cloud forum is about the Cloud as a delivery & install process

  • Will I be able to upgrade from Lion to Mavericks?

    First, I know my machine will handle Mavericks, that's not my question.  What I want to know is:
    If I have Lion now, will I be able to upgrade from Lion to Mavericks for the Mavericks price quoted, or will I have to upgrade to Mt. Lion and then Mavericks?  I was going to upgrade to Mt. Lion right about now, but don't want to pay for two upgrades within 3 or 4 months if I don't have to.

    If everything goes like in Mountain Lion, you should be able to upgrade to Mavericks from any OS X version with the App Store: Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion, always that your MacBook Pro is supported, thing that we don't know yet until Apple releases the requirements. Note that this may change with the final version

  • I am thinking of purchasing used ipod touch 2nd gen, will i be able to load from my macbook?  What do i need to know prior to purchasing used?

    I am thinking of purchasing used ipod touch 2nd gen, will i be able to load from my macbook?  What do i need to know prior to purchasing used?

    Your problem will be that AppleTV only has HDMI and optical output - no analogue out so unless say you had a B&W Zeppelin or similar that has optical in you'd need something esle to decode the audio to ananlogue.
    Some have also reported AppleTV not working for audio when TV is off or in standby.
    You may be better off having both!

  • When will FCPX be able to import Panasonic FZ-150 1080p/60 video?

    When will FCPX be able to import Panasonic FZ-150 1080p/60 video?
    The only format supported now is interlaced 1080i/30.
    Are there any third-party options of getting 1080p/60 into FCPX now?

    Thank you Tom and Hugh. Yes it's a AVCHD DSLR.
    If I could ask one more question.
    What would pros and cons be between ClipWrap and the free converters?
    Obviously, for me the most important would be the resulting image quality.
