I'm not allowed to put transitions in. Why?

I'm using iMovie 4 and can not put in a transition. I'm getting error message 4960, "error in system operation". I've successfully added transitions up until now. What gives? Thanks.

My standard list of things to do first for these weird sort of problems, but I also tend to run these before I go to burn an iDVD project just to be safe. Keep in mind this list represents the programs I tend to use. I am running Panther (10.3.9) so Tiger users might want to check the below list for compatibility. There are several alternate programs that do the same things with some combining the functions of some of the ones below. So everyone has their favorites, but here are mine...
Run MacJanitor (free download) to do all the Unix Cron Maintenance scripts.
Run Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities) and repair disk permissions on your start up drive (typically your internal drive). Also verify any other drives mounted on the system, especially any external drives that you use for iMovie and iDVD projects.
Run Preferential Treatment (free download) to check for corrupt/damaged application and system preference files.
Run Cache Out X (free download) to clear all system and application caches.
Reboot your Mac (after running Cache Out X you are given the option to restart the machine).
If you still can not get it to run correctly, next thing to try is to throw out the iMovie preference file (don't forget to change back those preferences you want different from the defaults next time you run it). If it still doesn't work, then I would suggest you reinstall iMovie.

  • Negative quantity not allowed for Put Away Planned

    Dear Experts,
    I'm trying to activate the PDI document but the system show the error message: Negative quantity not allowed for Put Away Planned.
    I was looking the document flow from the item 10 and I saw there is one task was created with quantity "1 box" and the same document was cancelled but the quantity "2 box" was cancelled. I believe because of this is happening the error.
    All items from my HU is with the same problem, duplicate the quantity during canceling.
    Somebody can give me advice how fix it.
    I found a SAPNote but Note 1674037:Negative Put Away Planned quantity (PWP) due to "Store HUs" but I need a workaround to fix my actual PDI and finish the process.
    Regards,
    Alan Mattos

    Hi Petr,
    I checked the transaction SMQ2 and I dont have anything stuck there. Then I tried to change de deliveryquantity but the field quantity isn't available to change. My PDI document already been the Goods Receipt Status "Completed". I try to reverse this document and the system show the message: Delivery is locked (Posting Not Possible). I believe its happening because the PDI isn't active.
    Do you have other idea ???
    Thank you a lot for your help.

  • Firefox will not allow Screen Saver...Why?

    Windows came up with new Wallpapers and Screen Savers, and I decided to change mine.
    The Wallpaper on my Desktop page loaded quickly. But when I select a Screen Saver, then click on "OK", it appears to be in place. Only, it's not!! When I go back into "Control Panel", I find that my Screen Saver is blank, again. I re-set it just like I previously did, and clicked
    on "OK". Four Times I've re-set Screen Saver, but it doesn't register
    or.........Firefox is not allowing it.

    You're welcome. I look forward to the day that Mozilla writes all new print-related code so we don't have to deal with problems like this.

  • I-move 4 Not Allowing Application of Transitions to Certain Clips

    i-movie 4 won't allow me to apply a fade-out or fade-in transition to some clips I've added to an existing project, but allows it for others—what gives?? I can't handle the idea of re-making the entire movie for this.

    i-movie 4 won't allow me to apply a fade-out or
    fade-in transition to some clips I've added to an
    existing project, but allows it for others—what
    gives?? I can't handle the idea of re-making the
    entire movie for this.
    I forgot to say that I'm trying to fade-out from one clip and fade-in to another—two adjacents transitions one after the other. This has worked fine in other parts of the movie, but now I can get a fade-out or a fade-in, but not both.

  • Not allowing me to setup iCloud, why??

    I downloaded all  i needed to to put iCloud on my iPad and it all went on ok and last nigt when I tried to sey it up on my iPad it kept telling me that my Apple ID or password was incorrect. Just to make sure of this i changed my password and re entered my Apple ID and password and I was still getting the same message so I quit attempting and thought I would try again this morning.
    This time I tried to enter and login in with my email address and password and it told me that the email address was already taken and if it was by me I needed to reset my password again. So i went through iforgot.apple.com and reset my password and I am still unable to set up iClod on my iPad. iTunes and the App store are all working fine just as normal and I even purchased something from both just to make sure it worked and it did.
    Customer service doesn't open until tomorrow and i was wondering if there is anybody out there who has had te same problem as me and if so what have you done to get it working?
    Only other option I suppose would be creating a new account but I wanted to use the same one I have now for everything and as I only have the one email address it told me to enter another one
    Please help!
    Becca

    Becca,
    The same darn thing is happening to me. I have been trying for two days. I was looking at my account at appleid.apple.com and when I clicked to manage my account I noticed that my aol address was not verified and under it was a blue hyperlink to verify it.  For some reason when I clicked the link to verify it just refreshed the page and nothing happened. So I decided to add a new email address to the account in hopes that by verifying that email I would be able to access icloud.  So when I added the second email it sent a verification email and I was able to verify that email but still not able to verify the primary. The link just keeps refreshing without sending me a verification email. I was reading somewhere that icloud and facetime need a verified email address attached to the account and it is now obvious to me that it needs to be the primary one but I was thinking that maybe your primary email is not verified, and if not what happens when you click to verify now? I too have changed my password about four times. I am getting frustrated as well.

    The only place you can download an application from is the iTunes app store.  Is that what you are trying to do?  Elsewhere will not work.

  • On my iPhone 4 safari will not allow firefox app to download why?

    Why can't I download needed firefox app on my iPhone 4 using safari?

    iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
    Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers

  • My mac book pro will not allow me to Skype? Why

    Hi I have downloaded Skype a few times followed the three steps as directed and but the Skype Icon will not appear on my desktop. So when I go into my downloads I see that it's there. But it will not open. Why?

    The Skype installer does not play nice unless you are in an account with administratior privilidges.  It does not know how to ask for the privilidges necessary to intall itself in the Applications folder.  Try installing it from the administrator account.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
