IMovie 08 hangs while trying to import iPhoto movies at the start.

Hi guys,
When I open Imovie 08, it asks me to import iphoto movies. Then it stays there for ages and never ends importing those movies. I know I can just skip this process but I want to edit those videos from iPhoto.
I guess is some corrupted file it is trying to import what is causing this incident but I have no idea how to tell which is the "bad" file since iMovie doesn't give any information about it.
Any clues?
Thanks in advence

Hi,
I wouldn't say I have such a lot of movies in Iphoto but deffintely they are quite a few... anyway, I suspect it will never end because the timer gets bigger and bigger; and yes I left it running overnight with no luck.
Is there any way to see in which video is iMovie having the problem? The other workarround means having to backup and delete videos randomly until I find "the bad one".
Cheers.

  • Premiere Elements 9 crashes while trying to import a movie.

    I have recently purchased Premiere Elements 9 and every time I try to import a movie from one of my homemade DVDs it crashes. I looked on Google and other Forums to try to find the answer but no luck. Does anyone have and suggestions?

    Also, see this ARTICLE from the Tips & Tricks sub-forum, for things to look at with crashes and hangs. It covers the hardware, the OS and the software, and offers links for tuning up the system, and getting it ready for video editing. I know that there is a lot of material in there, but Neale has done a great job of putting things into a checklist, and offering links to other material.
    That rec. is for use along with John T's links, which are a bit more specific to your burned DVD's.

  • Build Error while trying to import a dc from the track.

    Hi All,
              I  imported a Java perspective Dc from a track to local developement,
              When i tried to build locally developed dc, but i was getting a build error as
    "error reading C:\Documents and Settings
    .dtc\0\DCs\dc_ext_lib\_comp\gen\default\public\Excel_API\lib\java\Jexcel-install.jar; error in opening zip file"
    There was a error in opening the JExcel file.
    Any Ideas?
    Thanks,
    Anil

    Hi Anil,
    I think the jar file(Jexcel-install.jar) is zipped.Unzip the zar file from the folder......lib/java.
    Or else remove the jar file and import the application into NWDS,then add the jar externally from the NWDS.
    Make sure that the dc does not have any files.
    Once you import the dc rightclick on the prj-.properties-.add the external  jar file or directly place the jar file in java folder.

    While trying to import photos from my Canon 5D markIII, iPhoto displays an error message which says unreadable format and the following files could not be imported. Please advise???

    the screen shot does not display (a Forum bug ) and if it did it does not answer the questions
    Seriously we can not see you and if you refuse to answer simple questions we can not help
    Need information to help
    what version of iPhoto? Is OS X 10.8 as you state correct for the OS? Has it ever worked? What has changed since it worked? Will Image Capture  ( in your applications folder) import the photos? How are you importing - USB to the camera? USB card reader? built in card reader?
    Any other clues that would help a total stranger who can not see you or your computer assist you?

  • Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past yet says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again.  re-recorded 3 times and still not accepting HELP

    Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past doing this. After 3 attempts recording the hour long video and trying to upload it to iMovie, it says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. What could the reason be?

    After much research and troubleshooting, GoToMeeting replied with the final answer: We do not support the uploading of recordings to editing software. If you are having issues uploading a recording, unfortunately, we do not have tools or steps to resolve this. It is not a supported feature. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. 
    The no longer plan to support editing of recordings made with their software.  So, we are planning to find a new meeting provider.

  • Game room doesn't work, as it tries to save nickname and hangs while trying to save nickname info

    Game room doesn't work, as it tries to save nickname and hangs while trying to save nickname info

    From my understanding, trying to save apple server specific attributes on Active Directory users in the WGM will not work unless the AD schema has been extended to include these attributes.
    What you can do in leopard server is to export the list of AD users in WGM and then import them into open directory in WGM.
    From my testing the open directory will automatically authenticate with AD for those imported users. You can save Apple server attributes on those imported users.

  • Application hangs while trying to create a socket

    Hello,
    We have a third party application that makes HTTP connections using a old version of HTTPClient. Recently we have run into problems where the application hangs as one thread seems to hang while trying to create a socket (thread dumps show the hang occurs in native code) and other threads end up waiting for this thread as they need to obtain a lock on HTTPClient.HTTPConnection. We found out that HTTPClient was not setting a timeout on the underlying socket (SO_TIMEOUT) and the relevant patch has been implemented in the hope that if the condition arises again the offending thread will be timed out and allow other threads to try and continue.
    We will not be able to see if the patch works until Monday and I would like to understand the problem a little better if it fails. My question at what point will the socket timeout starting ticking? As our offending thread is waiting in native code is there a chance that the timeout will not be "active".
    Also can anyone provide reasons for an application hanging while trying to create a socket and any suggestions for monitoring or mitigating this problem?
    Thanks a lot.
    Sun Solaris 5.8
    JDK 1.4.1 b02

    It looks like our version of the JDK offer a connect method with a timeout value, I think this will do the trick.

  • I keep getting an error code while trying to import a cd to my itunes: Error occurred while converting the file. The disc you are attempting to use is full. removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space.  What does this mean?

    I keep getting this error code while trying to import a cd to my itunes: "Error occurred while converting the file. The disc you are attempting to use is full. removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space."  What does this mean?

    Well it probably means exactly what it says... How much free space is there on your hard drive where the iTunes Media folder resides? I believe there is also an obscure bug that can occur when software doesn't read the true value of the free space properly, and the workaround is, perversely, to duplicate some content so that with less actual free space the software in question perceives it as more. I've no idea if iTunes is affected by such a bug.

  • Getting ERR-3331 while trying to import application

    Hello,
    i'm trying to import an application from a 3.1.0.00.32 to a 3.1.0.00.30 APEX (there is no compatibility problem, right?!). I first was wondering the exported file is very big (~27 MB). When I'm trying to import this application on the target system it's processing for a while and then after ca. 5-7 minutes an error-page appears. ERR-3331 the error-text is in German but means something like "This application has allready been redirected and can't be redirected again."
    I don't know what to do. Hope you can help me.
    Thank you in advance

    Hi,
    i now have tested the exported script with SQL*Plus getting following result:

  • New user here.  Trying to import iPhoto 9.4.2 libraries into Aperture 3.4.3 as referenced files. When accessing File Import Library, it finds the iPhoto library just fine, but then imports it as Master files. No option that I can find to leave the photos

    New user here.  Trying to import iPhoto 9.4.2 libraries into Aperture 3.4.3 as referenced files. When accessing File>Import>Library, it finds the iPhoto library just fine, but then imports it as Master files. No option that I can find to leave the photos in place on the file system.  All the literature says their should be an option to choose, but I never get that option.  What?

    All the literature says their should be an option to choose, but I never get that option.
    That has been true for the previous Aperture versions. Now Aperture simply treats the original image files exactly as they are in the imported library. Referenced images will stay referenced, managed will be imported as managed. But you can always relocate the imported managed images afterwards by using "File > Relocate".
