Imovie 10.0.3 doesn't work

Hi, my computer is new and I don`t know why imovie does not let me to open a new proyect, I want to create a new movie or trailer and it does not do anything, I try to import some pictures to work with and it just turns white and does nothing, can I fix it by myself???

Note that the guide Carolyn referrs to is for a very old version of iMovie (6 HD).  Although the general principles are the same the user interface has much changed and for iMovie 10 details you need to consult:

  • The speed key of imovie 10.0.5 doesn't work at all

    the speed key of imovie 10.0.5 doesn't work at all

    Have you enabled it on the iPhone/iPod Touch and iTunes
    Once you have done this you need to ensure they are on the same WIFI network, If you have less than 50% power on the device then plug it into the mains.
    You can then force the first sync in the settings>general>iTunes Wi-Fi Sync menu
    lt me know if you get anywhere

  • Speed feature of iMovie 10.0.5 doesn't work...

    I'm trying to adjust the speed of clips that I add to the timeline in my movie projects in iMovie 10.0.5, but the Speed icon doesn't function.  I've tried accessing the Speed function from the Modify Menu as well with no joy.  I was wondering if it had to do with the frame capture rates of the cameras I'm using.  I primarily use a GoPro HD 2 Hero and iPhone 5 to shoot video.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Many thanks!

  • IMovie '14: Instant replay,  doesn't work

    In iMovie '14, when I have selected a clip, I can select " modify" and "instant replay", but the selection of "100%" "50%" etc stays in grey.
    So I cannot select this modification to the clip.
    Also changing of speed isn't possible.
    See the picture below and see the grey numbers.
    What do I wrong? I follow exact the iMovie '14 tutorial (App Store) to select, cut a.s.o.
    Hopefully someone can help me.
    Thanks.

  • IMovie from iLife 08' doesn't work w/SL

    I can not use iLife '08 with Snow Leopard 10.06.2. When I first tried after installing Snow Leopard I got the error code saying that I could not run the iMovie with OSX because I have version 7.0 of iMovie. I have re-installed the iLife disc and still the same. What can I do next?

    Run software update and upgrade to 7.1.4

  • I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this?

    I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this? I even tried deleting iMovie, bought a new copy and installed it, but the folder "iPhoto Videos" is still there and I can't get new clips loaded to iMovie, especially where I want them. Please help.

    The iPhoto Videos do occasionally have problems. I've seen a lot of people write messages to this Discussion group describing similar problems. The only thing that seems to get around this problem is to pull the video clips out of iPhoto then import them directly into iMovie. Once the troubles with iPhoto Videos starts, I haven't yet seen anyone write back with something that they did to fix it.
    The most difficult part of doing this is the movies in iPhoto might be a little difficult to track down. But you can create a smart alum that does that for you. Go to iPhoto > File Menu > New Smart Album:
    Set the first pulldown menu to keyword, second to contains, then in the last box type Movie with a capital 'M'. Then click OK. This smart album more or less does as search of the whole iPhoto Library and only displays items that match your search tearm of "Movie" exactly. In that smart album then you can find the original Movies you want to move out of iPhoto and into iMovie, <CTRL> click on the Movie clip, then choose Reveal in Finder. That will jump you out of iPhoto temporarily and into the iPhoto Library folder. From there you can move that movie file to the desktop. Move all the clips you want, once they're all collected up go to iMovie and go to the File Menu > Import Files. Then point it to the desktop where you moved your video clips.
    This will put all those videos into an Event folder in iMovie and bypass iPhoto Videos altogether.

  • IMovie doesn't work on my Macbook pro

    Hi, I got my MacBook Pro 1 month and a half ago and when I got it, iMovie was working but I didn't use it yet. So, today I tried to open it but it doesn't work anymore. It seems like it's not installed, I searched for some folders and I don't find anything but a folder of plugins for iMovie. I also tried to download it but I'm not able to. I'd like to know if it's possible to get iMovie again? Thanks!
    Sorry if there's some mistake, I'm not completely bilingual.

    Hello and welcome to the discussions!
    Your iMovie09 application should be found in your Applications folder. If it is there, but just 'not working anymore' you do not need to reinstall it.
    You cannot download iMovie. It is part of the iLife 09 applications that must be purchased, or it came preloaded on your MacBook.
    Try this:
    Close iMovie
    Go to your Home folder (the one with the house icon and your user name)
    Within the Home folder locate the Library
    Then Preferences
    Then find the file. com.apple.imovie.plist (there may be a number, as imovie8)
    Drag this plist file to the Trash. Don't worry. iMovie will create a new fresh preference file when you relaunch it.
    Open iMovie and see if it works properly.
    If not, post back for more assistance.

    Assuming you have (1) signed out, then (2) waited 30 minutes and it didn't work you will need to contact iTunes again.

    PROBLEM SOLVED!
    I went to my device manager on my Windows 7 PC and found the Bonjour service in my Services and Applications section. I set it to manual and BANG iTunes started working like it's supposed to.
    Unfortunately, I let my IPad get stolen on 17 Jan so I'll probably wait until after April to replace it with an IPAD 2!

  • Xml export imovie 11 doesn't work

    Can someone confirm that the export function to Final Cut XML doesn't work.
    I simply doesn't make a file.
    Example: Execute the export function and try to save it to the desktop. Result: No file on the desktop.
    I wonder if someone else has the same experience.
    Thank you.

  • Canon mini Disk camera doesn't work if external drive connected

    A long story.      Anyway, I have a MacPro Intel Dual Core 266 Ghz with 5 Gbs RAM,  4 internal hard drives HD1~HD4 (HD1 OSX 250 and three 500Gb) and two external HD5 (two partitions~HD5 & Time Machine Backups) and HD6 (1 Tb each).
    I've been using a Canon mini DV video camera FV-M10 (Firewire 400) for live video (Skype/iChat) and also for importing video into Final Cut Express, After Effects or iMovie up until a few days ago.  Both "live" video and from the recorded mini cassette tape.  Then all of a sudden not one of the software recognized my camera anymore.  I tried both Firewire 800/400 and USB2 connections using a few different cables. In Skype...(sometimes) it automatically shows the name FV-M10 in the camera slot, but the screen is black.  No, I checked if I left the cover on.  I checked my Sony WX-5 digital camera and see if that is recognized.  Yes, both pics and AVCHD videos are seen using the USB connection. 
    The problem started like this.
    I was downloading a file.  Had to work for an hour and when I came back upstairs.  I noticed that the screen was frozen.   So, I shut the Mac down.  And when I started it again, well nothing happened except for a grey screen.  A half~sized cursor was stuck up in the top left.  But, my mouse also had a cursor which was movable.  
    It wouldn't even recognize the OSX Install Disk holding down "C" or "Option".  Only starting with "Shift" held down, "Safe Boot"  could I use the basics like Mail, Safari, Firefox.   NO sound and no video. Tried a few times as well as cleaned my OSX HD1 hard drive and re-installed from "Safe Boot" mode".   So, I had it sent into Apple Tokyo for repairs.   Apple put in a new board.     Great!      I came it back in two days.   I cleaned the OSX hard drive and re-installed Mac OSX with the up-dates as well and got some of my main backed up stuff Mail, bookmarks, address book etc.   It started fine.     But, when I went to use Skype, iChat, iMovie or Final Cut Express  they still couldn't recognize my camera.  I had been using the Canon FV M10 camera for a few years with both external hard drives on.  There were never any problems until just before I sent it into the shop.
    There was only one way to use my camera.  Un-Plug the external HD6.  Then the camera functions fine.  but remember I had been using this camera with both HD's for around two years without any problems.
    Notes on symptoms:  and what actions I took.  
    Front connections: FW400 Canon camera.  FW800 (Tried connecting HD6)  
    Rear Connections: USB2 1) MidiMan 2 x2   2) mouse  3) Canon Printer
                                   FW400 HD5  FW800 (tried HD6)
    With HD6 Connected.
    iMovie 11 9.02 : Start iMovie  O.K.  No camera on.   Turned camera "on" then "No Camera Connected" notice came up.   (did this a few times)   Turned camera off.   Quit iMovie. 
    2nd start:  Camera On.   iMovie freezes.   Spinning Colored beach ball.   I then Force Quit Option-Apple-ESC
    iMovie shows (not responding)  When I turn off the camera.  (not responding) disappears and iMovie is working again.  But, "No Camera Connected" shows again.  Quit!
    Un-Plugged (Ejected) HD6.
    When I un-plugged HD6,    (tried both the front and rear connections).   iMovie still on.  
    "No Camera Connected"  I Quit iMovie.
    Re-start iMovie:  Camera on… Live video and record miniDV tape can both be seen. 
    Skype:  Both live video and mini DV tape recording even plays back over Skype screen.
    iChat (same as Skype) O.K.
    Since Apple replaced the board 661-3932 Card Video, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT which cost just about $X00.00  (¥XX,000).   I assume that they don't also check all the connections etc. I mean from the connector to the video board.
    The call to Apple Tokyo today.  
    Just talked to Apple (Mac) Tokyo about my computer problem.  Seems like they're trying to squeeze their way of more repairs by saying I have a hard drive configuration problem.   But it doesn't seem like that!   I worked with it 2~3 hours today...and  here is the basic problem.
    I've used the Canon FV M10 mini DV camera with Skype, iChat, iMovie and FCEx for few  years  (HD6) is over a year old-the most recent add on) with no problem.    With both external 1Tb hard drives.  And Apple said that it's a 3-party problem.  (different makers etc.)  But, it's NOT!     Yes, they put in a new board.   But, I'd say the problem is from the connection (where I plug the cable into the Mac)  to the board. 
    When I connect HD6 (1Tb ext hard drive).   FW 800 (either back or front connection) the video camera doesn't work in  Skype, iChat, iMovie, or Final Cut Express.     If I eject and Un-Plug HD6  all of them work fine.  The camera "live" or the camera playing back the mini DV tape video.
    Wouldn't this be a problem between the connections (front & back) to the new video board?  Or does anyone have an answer.   Apple seems to have said, "We can't help you".   Please someone help!  thanks

    +My mini isn't responding to startup commands like "C" or "D" from the keyboard.+
    You'll need a wired usb keyboard for these commands to work -- and the Apple Aluminum keyboard won't work either.
    But just about any PC usb keyboard will work. Alt maps to Option and Win-key to CMD.

  • My 3Gs doesn't work anymore after upgrading to Iatest Update. Still It's resetting itself but doesn't boot. Can anyone help me?

    I updated my 3GS with the latest update. But it doesn't work. Still I only see the Apple Icon on the display and almost every two minutes I get the sound of resetting/rebooting itself by the phone.
    So, what can I do?

    If iMovie won't start, one thing to try is delete the iMovie Preferences file:
    Go to your hard drive Mac HD > Users > (your home folder) > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    Drag that file to the trash, reboot your Macintosh and try to launch iMovie again. Failing that if you can write down the error code and report that back to the Discussion Group someone else might be able to start helping with trouble-shooting the failure.

  • Many programs I used to use in Tiger doesn't work in Leopard

    Here are the ones I've noticed have not been working or have errors:
    iMovie
    iChat
    Yahoo Messenger
    Adium
    VisualHub
    There are probably like 10 more but I haven't seen it yet. Why are so many programs are acting like this. I was thinking it was becasuse it wasn't ugpraded enough but I did install the newer version and it doesn't work.

    Well, haven't we had to deal with a slew of updates every two years?
    And at least Vista x64 is probably more secure, supports EFI (UEFI 2.).
    The same people that would need a Mac Pro (dual cpu, 8GB RAM, etc) would be looking at 64-bit.
    Did not Apple tout the G5 from IBM as finally being a 64-bit system? But yes, even Adobe CS3 is still 32-bit and limited to 3.5GB of user space, which there are work arounds for.
    One person I tried to help was using Maya but his version doesn't work with Leopard, and blames Apple and 10.5 it seems, rather than realize he needs to consider an 8-core system rather than 4-core, more memory, make better use of disk and RAID, and of course... upgrade software or... WAIT FOR MAYA AND 10.5.x to catch up to each other!
    People assume you have to wait for SP1 for Windows, but think they should jump rigtht in, when we all have seen that X.3 is usually the first "sweet spot" in any release.

Maybe you are looking for
