IMovie '08 stops recording after 12 minutes

I am recording a DJ set, i am recording audio through Line-In and the video through the iSight camera. The first 5 or 6 times it went okay, but i wanted to perfect my mix so i tried some more attempts. For the last 3 attempts, it has stopped recording automaticaly, after 10 mins, after 12:30, after 12:10. I have turned off energy saving, and think it may be due to the memory left on my computer. THese videos are taking up about 0.5gb hd space but i have over 3gb left (i know its not much but it's more than enough for a 30 min video). What steps would you take? I am getting tired of all this mixing of the same songs to make a video ><
Thankyou in advance

You are wise to suspect that your problem is related to your decreasing disk free space.
In addition to using your startup disk to store files, OS X needs significant disk space for system tasks that it is doing for your without your input. I think you will do well to keep a MINIMUM of 10GB of your startup disk free for use by OS X 10.6.x. 20GB will be better. You will notice increased operating speed and less interruptions like the ones you are now experiencing. (BTW- when you eventually upgrade to a newer OS X version, understand that its new features will benefit from even more free space.)
If you need some ideas about how to increase the free space you use, check out OS X: Increase disk space. Even though it was written for Mountain Lion, some of the suggestions such as moving some files to other disks or simply deleting ones that are no longer needed are equally applicable to your Snow Leopard system.

QT Pro stops recording after 3 minutes 11 seconds!!!

I have done some recording from my old camcorder through QT (not Pro) that were just fine...! So now, I just updated to QT Pro, but recording from the very same Camcorder stops after 3 minutes and 11 seconds with message: "Recording stopped because the maximum duration for the file has been reached." Why? My old previous recordings through QT (not Pro) were just fine...! My Scratch Disk (which is the main disk in my Mac have more than 120 GB... I tried to tweak some of the setup items in the Preferences, but nothing really works. Remember, I am doing the very same steps like I have done with the plain QuickTime Player, and I have not had any problems... Any Idea anyone! Appreciate your expertise!

To the latter 2 questons, no, and no.
QT is not the greatest recorder but you might find Quicktime Broadcaster to be a lot more trustworthy and it is free.

Horrible beeping and stops recording after 18 minutes

Hi,
i tried to record a live session tonight with only 10 inputs.
after 18 minutes it stopped recording (the wave boxes disappeared), but the cursor kept moving (like when you press play).
I checked that there was enough room (there was 50GB free), i checked that the screensaver or anything else was running in the background (nothing interfering at all)!
not only this, but every so often a "beep" would be recorded too, on a range of tracks.
i'm using the m-audio fast track ultra 8r and ASIO4ALL driver (as I'm also using another USB soundcard).
any ideas?
Ian

Canon Rebel T5i automatically stops recording after about 6 seconds. How can I disable or fix this?

I just got a Canon Rebel T5i and I was testing out the video and several times it will automatically stop recording after about 6 seconds. How can I fix or disable this?

And while buying said faster card... buy a REPUTABLE brand from a reputable vendor. I've come to the conclusion that there are a lot of fly-by-nights making cards that are not as fast as they claim to be.
Reputable vendors are companies like Sandisk and Lexar. But as an SD card is just a plastic card with a sticker on it, and stickers are pretty easy to fake, buy the card from a vendor you can trust is not selling fakes.
This is one item where it is probably not a good idea to try to save money by finding the cheapest deal you can find on the Internet.

When recording a slideshow, why does audio stop recording after about 30 seconds even though slides and presentation continues?

I'm doing everything the same and have made many successful slideshow recordings using Keynote, but since updating the Yosemite and then updating Keynote the audio just stops recording after about 30 seconds.
The slides keep on changing and recording the video, but after 30 seconds the audio stops recording even though it seems to be registering the sound and the mic is not muted in Keynote.
Is there some change or new setting I am not aware of that needs to be altered?
Any advice would be helpful as I need to record a lot of presentations.
OS X Yosemite version 10.10
Keynote version 6.5
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
2.6 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

I can't imagine this will work as the the application is tied into a specific computer and user ID to prevent unauthorised use of single use applications. Copying over has not worked with previous versions of Keynote.
It worked for me. I guess it could be because we bought our Macs together and have home sharing or something. Either way, I'm running Yosemite but with Keynote 6.2.2. and not updating again until Apple do something about this bug.

Iphone 4s touchscreen stops responding after a minute or so, I then have to wait at least a minute before the touchscreen works again but soon after it stops responding. I have tried hard reset, turning it off over night, etc

Hello,
I had that problem as well and the apple support suggested to turn off the LTE-mode to have a running system and try to exchange the micro-sim by my provider.
THAT was not an option!
BUT it seems to solve my problem in the following way after trying a lot of possibilties:
In the menue properties/help (don't know the exact english word, because I run my phone in german)
I switched on the nice feature 'flash LED' by incomming calls, msgs, and push infos.
Today the flash feature was responding to different push notes very slowly.
By switching this feature off the LTE-mode-tochscreen-not-responding-problem disappeared.
We tried this on a other iphone, not having the metioned problem, and switched the LED-flash:
the problem appeared. Switching the LED-flash off: problem disappeared!
It seems to be a bug that the LED will hint Calls and MSGs in combination with the LTE mode!
treated my phone very hard today to double check, but its still ok.
@Apple:
Please fix that issue in the next update.
Hope, this helps you guys as well.

Track stops recording after about an hour

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to record from some old tapes in order to create mp3s. The track stops recording after about one hour. The Tape is over one hour long. I read about a similiar problem in the forum and tried dragging the purple timeline marker to the right but it won't move any further. What is this called and what does it do? I also read about changing the sampling rate, but I cannot find where to do this. Where do I find documentation on this?
Many Thanks for any suggestions.
Regards,
Bill

Garageband 3 doesn't record more than 1999 beats (GB2: 999). Since in your case the beats don´t matter, you can lower the tempo to the minimum (40 bpm) to get a maximum recording time of 3:18:48.
As for the sample rate: You can't change the export sample rate of GB, it's always 16 bit, 44.1 kbit/s (internally GB works with a higher resolution).

I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine. The audio disappears

I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine. The audio disappears with both programs. Does anyone know what is happening with my audio capture?

Update, I took the webcam home over the weekend and tried on my home network and the outcome was the same video fine - audio delayed, is this a Skype for desktop issue?

I just downloaded a pre-ordered album and one song is corrupted and stopping just after a minute in. Can I redownload the song for free?

I just downloaded a pre-ordered album and one song is corrupted and stopping just after a minute in. Can I redownload the song for free?

If you delete the song from your PC you can redownload it. Make sure you actually remove it from the computer, and not just from the library (select "Move to Recycle Bin" when deleting). To redownload you can go to the itunes Store->Purchased-> Download Previous Purchases. Within there you have the option to view all songs purchased, as well as all songs which are "Not In My Libraray".
If you don't feel comfortable deleting the song, you can just move copy/paste it somewhere else so that you've got it backed up in case the re-download doesn't work.

Is is possible to stop recording after x blank seconds

I'm converting quite a few cassettes to mp3 in Garage Band. Is there a way to tell Garage Band to stop recording after a specific number of bland seconds? I'd like to be able to walk away from recording and have it stop recording at the end of the tape.
Thanks
Michael

turn on the Cycle Region button and stretch the yellow bar to the length you wish to record

I taped for 6 hours, 5hours downloaded to imovie, 6 stopped at 1:01 minutes and showed error 36, does anyone know what is going on. Contacted apple and they could not find the answer.

Hi All, I have a Panasonic SDR-H250GN recorder which I have always used in imovie.
I taped for 6 hours, which became 6 chapters. 5 downloaded, the sixth keeps stopping at 1:01 minutes, imovie stops responding.
It taped to full capacity.
How can I get the final hour downloaded?

Hi Edwardo,
Perhaps there's remnants of that App you're not aware of... what was it?
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems

Sliders stop working after 20 minutes

Lightroom sliders in the Develop module stop working all of a sudden after 30 minutes I'm using Lightroom. The other fuctions work but sliders don't. Every time I have to restart Lightroom. Don't know why this happen (I noticed it especially happens when I'm using the HSL sliders)

Hi,
I'm not sure why there isnt a "sticky" on this subject but I read far enough back in the threads to come up with this solution.

If you are configured with a dynamic IP as I am, then following those instructions to clone your MAC address should solve the problem. In any case please let us know what your solution, if any was.
Hope this helps,
