I would like to manually transfer all my iMovie content from SL to LION.  How do I do this manually?

HI!
I want to manually transfer all of my iMove data ( projects etc) from SL to LION.
What is the best way for me to do this?
Does the data need to be stored on an external drive so an OPTION / click OPEN is performed or is it emerly a matter of dragging and dropping a folder?
Thanks

Hi
or is it emerly a matter of dragging and dropping a folder?
NO - No No No
Moving Event's and Project's
Connection - Either connect one Mac in Target mode to the other via FireWire. Or use an external hard disk !
(Target-Mode - Start one Mac e.g. laptop - BUT keep T-key down during full up-start - Now a FW-symbol is jumping around the screen and it will work as an external hard disk when connected to the other Mac)
A. The External Hard Disk - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work for Video. UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most other things but not for Video whatever program is used (iMovie or FinalCut)
B. Should be a FireWire one as USB/USB2 performs badly to me and especially when filling up
C. Do never Move or Alter any folder named
• iMovie Event's - or -
• iMovie Project's
on DeskTop/Finder - as this will result in iMovie losing connections to them and repair can be anything from hard to impossibly
D. Moving and Copying must be done within iMovie application and Events to Events - and - Project's to Project's.
E. Moving Project's to Event's - Do not work for me - I have to export project as a QuickTime movie then Import this intoEvents.
Event's window can show two faces
Like this
or like this
from one hard disk Event - You can move it to the other hard disk
You can not (at least not me) move Event to Project or other way around only
Event to Event and Project to Project
Yours Bengt W

    I have a mobleme account and an existing iweb website. I would like to create a second website with a registered domain name. How do I do this?

    All you need to do is create your second site in iWeb, move it to the top of lhe list of sites in the left hand pane and publish to your MobileMe account. You must make sure the second site has a different name from the first.
    Then setup domain name forwarding to the second site following Apple's instructions here: iWeb: Using your own domain name. You will need to setup forwarding at your domain name provider also. 
    The key is that the second site (with the domain name) must the top top size in iWeb.
    Note:  with MobileMe scheduled to be discontinued on June 30, 2012, you might begin looking into obtaining another host.  When you do you'll find that both sites will need to have a domain name. 
    When the time comes take a look at HostExcellence.com.  I've had excellent results with it. They have a couple of packages that offer free domain names.  And most important they have outstanding 24/7, ear-to-ear customer support.

  • I would like to update trial for Master collection cs6 to Creative cloud.  How do I do this?

    I would like to update trial for Master collection cs6 to Creative cloud.  How do I do this?

    That would seem to be the obvious solution.  I have tried it but the reason I am asking is the blank fill in the password screen which is the result of this action. 
    1.  open program. 
    2.  License flash screen appears with sign in prompt.
    3.  Sign in with adobe creative cloud activated. 
    4.  License entry required. 
    In a perfect world this would prompt an automated response which would read my adobe ID credentials and automatic sign in would occur.  So this is my problem.  I am stuck on this screen.  So here are the options as i understand them.  1. Uninstall and start over.  2. Request support.  3.  Search forums.
    What am i missing?

  • HT2534 I have three Apple IDs and would like to combine them all into one, can I do that and how?

    When I started buying Apple products I did not realize how important it was to keep the same Apple ID and Password for all of the device.  As a result I have four Apple ID's.  I would like to only have one Apple ID for all my devices.  Is this possible and what do I ave to do to make it happen?  I appreciate any help you might be able to give me.  Thanks

    It's not currently possible to merge accounts, nor to transfer content from account to another account - content will remain tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it.

  • We have 2 ipods & would like to sync different songs to each using the same Itunes. How do we accomplish this?

    We have 2  ipods & would like to sync different songs to each using the same itunes library. How do we accomplish this?

    Use one of the several outlined methods in this Apple support document. I personally like the individual playlist set up where you add everything you want to a specific playlist and then set up each iPod to sync that one playlist that contains all the content you would like to be synced to it.

  • I would like to add another browser so I can get google email standard, how do I do this?

    I am having a problem with my gmail account, I can only load the HTML version and not the standard version. They suggested I upgrade my browser, which I have several times and I have the latest Firefox. But, I still can not load the Standard Version in the Gmail account. Months ago I could, then it just stopped and since then I can not get the Standard Version. So, I thought I would download their browser as a second browser to be used just for Google and I can't down load it. What do I do now?

    You really want to use Firefox don't you?
    Create a bookmark and you can invoke it by it's keyword shortcut:
    : '''name:''' gmail: (standard) Gmail - Inbox (white) Standard
    : '''Location:''' javascript:void(window.open(location.href="https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=html&zy=s"))
    : '''Keyword:''' gmail:
    : '''Description:''' https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=html&zy=s
    Your actual problem would be resolved by deleting your Google.com cookies pertaining to gmail. Do not delete all of your cookies.

    As far as downloads go, Firefox closes the download window immediately now when the download completes, you can bring the window back up with :"Ctrl+J".

  • How do I transfer all my iPhoto contents from my external hard drive back to my MacBookPro iPhoto?

    My MacBook Pro recently had to have it's software cleared completely by a genius at the apple store. I purchased an external hard drive to save all of my documents and photos safely on so I would not lose them. I now am having difficulty reloading all of my iPhoto contents back onto my laptop from my external hard drive. Has anyone else experienced this? Will my iPhoto library go back to it's original appearance with all of the special albums I had made and the way in which I organized my photos and videos? How do I find what folders my photos were saved on my external hard drive to drag back onto my laptops iPhoto library?

    iPhoto stores it's pictures in the Pictures/iPhoto Library, so if you have this backed up on a external drive, then it's a simple matter of replacing the new iPhoto Library (free of anything) with the copy of the older one on the external drive and running iPhoto.
    If you have some items in the new iPhoto Library you can export them to the Desktop until the old one is replaced and then reimport them. Also another mehtod is to right click on the iPhoto Library and "Show Package Contents" inside is a folder called "Originals" which contain your files.
    If you replaced the files and iPhoto doesn't open up, then reset it.

    You might want to consider not having your movies in iPhoto, it's not designed to handle too much, in fact 10,000 pictures of mine seem to overload it.
    You can keep seperate iPhoto Libraries, use the option key held at launching of iPhoto to select another iPhoto Library.

    How can I get out of a support community. I posted once and now receive several posts day.

    Do you see the Actions box at the top of your topic on the right? See the first option? Go to the forum in question. That first option will read "Stop email notifications." Click the link and that will terminate the email notifications for that topic.
