IMovie 9.0.9 and Yosemite?

Hi. I'm wondering if anyone is able to run IMovie 9.0.9 under Yosemite.
Tonight I installed Yosemite on an external drive. I then tested all my applications to see if any had problems under Yosemite. Only a few did, but one was IMovie 9.0.9. It wouldn't run — I had to force quit. I'm just wondering if other people are having the same issue. I much prefer IMovie 9.0.9 to version 10.0.5 which is the version Apple released last year.
If other people are able to run IMovie 9.0.9 under Yosemite then I'll have to do some more troubleshooting.
Thanks!

Try moving these three items to the Desktop, rebooting and launching iMovie 9.0.9 again.
The Home/Library/Containers/com.apple.iMovieApp folder
and the Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iMovieApp.LSSharedFiledList.plist preference file
and the Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iMovieApp.plist preference file.
I can run 9.0.9 on my iMac running Yosemite without issue.

I have created several short (3-5 minute) movies using iMovie 10.0.6 and Yosemite. I want to create one movie that includes these short movies that I can then either burn to a DVD or show in iMovie's Theater. How can I do it?

I have created several short (3-5 minute) movies using iMovie 10.0.6 and Yosemite. I want to combine those short movies into one movie that I can loop and burn on a DVD or show in iMovie Theater. How can I do it? The movies are now shared to iTunes.

Another easy way to fix this.
What I've noticed is that upon upgrading your projects and events to work with iMovie 10, initially it will work... Until you quit iMovie and reopen it again. Any events with hashtags will show up without the star next to the iMovie event. SO, if you happen to read this, after upgrading to iMovie 10 from its predecessor, immediately change the event name to NOT include a hashtag/pound symbol.
Otherwise, if it's too late, you can either do the above or this...
Hold down option and click on iMovie. This will prompt you Locate, Create a New Library, Cancel this window, or Choose a different library. What you want to do is create a new library, call it whatever you want to, this will only be temporary. After the program opens, it should be a blank Library. Then go to File > Open Library > iMovie Library (your original library) and proceed to change the name of your events. Quit the program. Go into your Movies folder in Finder, delete the library you temporarily created, and your back in business.

Issues with iMovie 9.0.9 in Yosemite

Using iMovie 9.0.9 in Yosemite and I am using a late 2009 MacBook.
Yosemite works fine till i started to use iMovie 9.0.9
After Launch, then I went to my projects and then it started it spinning and it would not stop. Then I went to look if I had to force quit it and I did. It said "iMovie not responding" It does it all the time.
I did not change a thing on this computer except for going to Yosemite 10.10.
Is there any workaround so that doesn't do this or do we have to wait till Apple fixes it if they ever do?
Also, When I put in my SD card in my SD reader iMovie would not launch it. So I had to go ahead and create a quick time movie and then imported in that way.
That was the only workaround I founded be able to use iMovie again to capture video in iMovie 9.0.9.
HELP!!!!!!

Im having the same issue with Yosemite, I have old projects from iMovie 9.0.9 that won't open in 10.0.6 and when I try to load a copy of 9.0.9 from my external to my new iMac it won't even copy over. Have a ton of projects i would hate to lose because of this stupid bug.

Why does iTunes make me log in every time I open it since upgrading to v.12.0.1.26 and Yosemite?

Since upgrading to itunes v. 12.0.1.26 and Yosemite (same day), iTunes has been making me log in every single time I open it.
Not only that, but it makes me log in several times, for iCloud, for iTunes match, for whatever else we do on iTunes. It gives me like five different reasons to log in, and I have to type my password in five times.
Can anyone tell me what is going on here and how to fix it? Thanks!

I am trying to send an iMovie project to iDVD and I keep getting the following error msg. "Unable to prepare subject for publishing: The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-43)"

Check out this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1421870
It may mean you either your Event or your Project. Have you moved any of the files in the Finder by any chance? That error may come up if you moved anything outside of iMovie. Do you get an error message when you choose Share>Export to iMovie (choose medium size) and save it to the Desktop? If you can export it to the desktop, you can pull that file into iDVD separately and still make it work.

I have a MacBook Air. With latest version of Pages and Yosemite my full-screen function no longer operates.

My full screen function no longer works in Pages after latest software updates for Pages and Yosemite.
Has anyone else experienced this phenomena? It flashes to full screen then immediately reverts to the normal display.

Yes it does.
Open your Pages document in Pages v5.5.1.
To enter full-screen:
Pages > View > Enter Full Screen (or control+command+F)
Hover over the green traffic light in your Title bar. It will show diagonal full-screen arrows. Click.
To exit full-screen:
Hover over the Document Title bar, then Pages > View > Enter Full Screen (or control+command+F)
Move your pointer over the Document Title bar, and press the green traffic light again

iMovie on your Mac has nothing to do with iCloud storage. Download and use Find Any File to search for your iMovie project. FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't, like invisible folders, packages and system folders. If there a file with your file name on it anywhere on the hard drive FAF will find it.
Do you have Time Machine enabled backing up to an external HD? This situation is exactly what TM is good at. It makes hourly backups so you can go back to find and restore the missing file. All HDs crash at some time or another and having a good backup strategy is the only protection against that.

IMovie '11 hogs CPU and freezes

I've been importing a few video files in iMovie (from local hard disk, not HD) and it has been taking over 1hr each time... for about 1hr movies.
During each, activity monitor will show that iMovie is taking about 150% of CPU usage... never less than 95%, and I even saw a peak at over 200% (how can something go over 100% is already beyong me, mathematically... but 200%?!)
I should be glad that iMovie is using all the power possible, but I don't get the results. It's incredibly slow, and everything else is freezing. I have trouble using the computer. Even typing in an email or switching between screens is slow... when it happens. I may not be using the most powerful machine there is, but I doubt it's normal behavior.
I have a 3.2GHz processor and 4G of RAM.
I tried closing all other programs (even though activity monitor showed they were not using much CPU), but it didn't change anything.
I noticed today that this huge CPU usage and the worst freeze happens for over 40min while the progression bar of the import barely changed and stuck at about 2-3%... and then the iMovie icon starts jumping and from that point the computer goes back to acting normal and the import finishes in less than 5min.
It's like there is a bug with the process at the beginning of the import... not the import process itself.
Anyone has any idea of what's happening?
Thanks
(When I export small projects -just movie cuts with no effects- it uses a lot of CPU too and slows down the whole computer... but not in as bad a way, and the process clearly goes on normally... and working in iMovie to create projects is usually OK.)

That is utter nonsense about 200% explanation! Tools such as TOP in the CLI are unix based tools, and were originally designed for computers that had 1 CPU. The world has evolved A LOT since 1970s. Unfortunately a lot of the geeks who grew up with that technology are as thick headed as religious nuts who opressed women in Saudi Arabia and won't even let them drive! They insist that things should function ONLY THEIR WAY and anything else is nonsense. It is absolutely ridiculous for top to report more than 100% for the CPU utilization even on multi-core machines! When it says 200% CPU Utilization it means that the operating system is over utilizing the CPU, which is impossible, mathematicaly and realistically. The solution is really simple. A few code changes to TOP and it can report 100% for any number of cores or CPUs. But the unix zealots that are responsible for coding things don't want to make these changes, they are stuck in 1970s and refuse to move. We need coders who are not afraid to step up and make the real changes needed.
Try this. Open up iMovie, close any open projects, unhighlight any events that might be highlighted so no clips are shown in the clip viewer nor the preview box. Technically speaking iMovie is doing nothing and shouldn't take up more than 1% of the CPU. Now if you run TOP, it will show iMovie using around 90% of the CPU. How the heck is that good design? It uses 100% of the CPU when it's doing nothing!!! Imagine if iTunes used 100% CPU when it was paused?!?!!? But iTunes is good, it uses only 1% of the CPU while in pause (which I think is still far too much CPU usage since it's doing absolutely nothing, too!).. iMovie is terribly programmed and has serious user interface issues. Like for example. The buttons in the middle for making a clip a favourite, or a star, etc... those buttons are huge and are ALWAYS there.. Even when a clip is not highlighted and when you are editing the project timeline and the buttons are not needed. So much iMovie 11 functionality is ********!! I am shocked that a company as creative as Apple can put out such a bad product!!! But it's the best proudct of it's kind, so we should be thankful!
Here look at this screenshot.. iMovie taking up 100% of the CPU while doing absolutely nothing!

"Error Disk too Slow" Macbook Pro 2011 - Maverick and Yosemite - The Great Grand Mystery Unfolds!!!

Hey everybody,
Logic Pro X user here, have a late 2011 Macbook Pro, upgraded to 16gb of ram, 2.8ghz intel core i7, running latest version of Mavericks and more recently on a separate partition I tried Yosemite with a clean install of only Logic Pro X.
I use Apogee Quartet as my audio interface, I have a OWC Mercury Elite Firewire 800 external drive that I record to, all LPX files are on my internal drive.
Before Mavericks I had 0 issues with this setup, no with just one sole drummer track, or one single audio or software track, I get the various disk too slow errors after a few seconds.
I have tried reinstalling LPX, I tried a clean partition with nothing but Logic Pro on it (both Mavericks and Yosemite).
I have reset my PRAM and used Apple Hardware diagnostics as well as memtest (i think it was called) and even reverted back to my old original RAM that came with the computer. All hardware tests passed, I have verified and repaired disks from disk utility as well as from the recovery partition.
I have worked with Apple a bit over the phone doing these things, I have also read just about every thread on this pervasive issue. And its ruining my experience as a user. I absolutely loved Logic on Mountain Lion, no issues whatsoever! I'm considering reverting back to it actually.
On a side note I also have a HDMI Tv connected through the thunderbolt display, and a self powered USB hub that I connect my wireless mouse, iPhone cable and WD MY passport drive (which I only use for Time Machine).
I'm basically at my wits end and open to anybodies suggestions, I even tried resting the SMC and several other things advised in these forums.
I'm Stil under Apple Care and wondering if going into them is my only hope left.
I find that garageband acts the same, but I have no other system issues! its so bizarre, performance on all other programs is totally fine, its only when I want to record that I get issues.
For the record I do have some 3rd party VTS (Arturia V collection, EZ drummer 2 and AMplitube) but when I did the clean partition they weren't there and I still had the disk to slow error, so I'm not convinced its because of those.
Also Since the partition I obviously have played with my storage but I still have 75 gas of space on the mavericks partition (out of 500gb ) and on Yosemite partition I have 125 gbs available and on my Firewire external drive I have about 150gb left on a 500gb drive, so I'm not convinced its a space issue either (especially since before Mavericks Mountain Lion seemed to work just fine.)
HELP! Please help...I'm so exhausted trying to fix this on my own, and admittedly I've run to the end of my own capacity and don't know where to go from here.
Thank you for any suggestions, sorry for the long post, and if I have left anything out please let me know, this is my first post.

And yes I did upgrade my apogee drivers to the recent ones they just released.

How can I make Final cut pro 7 and Yosemite work?

Hi dear Apple.
I have this huge problem with Final cut pro 7 and Yosemite.
I have tried to install it on a Mac book pro that has Yosemite but it doesn't work.
I have an I mac with finalcut pro 7 working on Lion but I need to upgrade it to Yosemite to be able to use CC Adobe.
I have a feature film worth 6,7 million SEK with Final cut pro 7 and I can't translate it to XML files to premiere cause it is in its last editing process. I get an error everytime I try. Also the last version of Fcp (X) ***** for a professional editor. So.. My only option is to finish this film in Fcp7.
How can I use Yosemite and still be able to keep Fcp7?
Please help me or do something about this issue soon. I bought fcp7 for 11000 SEK at the time that was quite expensive.

Hi Meg the dog! Thanx for answering!
I know it was left to die 4 years ago. I just think its ****** up.. I work with documentaries and it takes quite a while to finish. I have done one for 6 years now. If I had known that Fcp7 was left to die I would never had started to edit 6 years ago...
I did try this recommended on the forum by another user:
Go to the app location in finder, CTRL click on the app and choose [Show Package Contents]. A folder [Contents] appears, click on it and choose [MacOS]. You'll see a Unix executable. Double click, you'll start Terminal. At the same time fcp will launch. After fcp is launched, close terminal and confirm when asked. Now fcp is up and running. Close fcp and the next time, just open fcp the normal way. DONE!
But it doesn't work for me. I can't launch fcp7.
I have Fcp7 Installed on my I mac and I wonder if that will effect fcp7 if I upgrade to Yosemte?
I tryed to export XML to work on premiere and this is what happends:
Any recommendations? I am going crazy here..

It stops then after several seconds (like 25 secs) then it starts again ... and then several seconds later it stops again!
I have the latest software so I don't know what to do?

I just created a movie in iMovie 10.0.5 and shared it to iTunes but I cannot copy to my iPod touch

I just created a movie in iMovie 10.0.5 and shared it to iTunes but I cannot copy to my iPod touch. It says the movie was not copied because it cannot be played on this iPod. My iPod was bought in 2009 and has the latest iOS 4.2.1. I also tried sharing in all the different resolutions but none of them worked.
What should I do?

SMS messages not syncing in iOS 8 and Yosemite

I'm using iOS 8 and Yosemite. I was able to receive calls and sms messages from my phone on my computer. That has all of a sudden stopped. SMS contacts are now listed in red in Messages and are not delivered. iCloud accounts are the same on both devices. Any ideas?

Hey srobs,
Thanks for the question, I can definitely understand how frustrating it may be when messaging does not work on your iPhone. The following resource provides some great troubleshooting steps that you can attempt:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
1. Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
2. Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
3. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
4. iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
5. Restart your device.
6. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
2. Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
3. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
4. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
5. Back up and restore your device as new.
Thanks,
Matt M.

IMovie v6.0.3 and iMovie 08 install at the same time?

Can I have 2 version of iMovie installed at the same time? I want to view and maybe use the new version (in iLive08), but everything I have heard about it is not good. I'd like the option to keep the version 6.0.3.
Thanks

I don't have iLife 08 but AFAIK unlike earlier versions it doesn't overwrite iMovie 1-6.
And besides, if you copied & renamed earlier versions before installing iMovie 1-6, the old version co-existed very nicely with the new version. For example: you want to keep iMovie 4 before installing iMovie 5-6: duplicate iMovie, rename the duplicate as iMovie 4.0.1, install iMovie 5-6 -> voila: you have iMovie 4.0.1 and iMovie HD (5-6).
Some people have almost all iMovie versions in their Applications folder for testing purposes
