IMovie app- no titles or themes allowed!

For some reason, No matter what theme I select, none of Them appear. I also cannot bring up the menu for titles to add any. Is this a known issue at all?

Anyone know a way around iMovie's inadequate title capabilities?

i'm new to mac and this is my first time using iMovie. i want to create a title and my title is longer than a few words (it is a sentence). in iMovie, the only title setting that allows me to break up my title into multiple lines (like you would a textbox) that are actually readable is "Far Far Away". I do not want this crazy animation on my title though. All other title options make me put my entire title on one line, making it tiny and unreadable.

Yes, my title plug-ins work with iMovie 2 through 6.
For Intel-Macs, you need to run through Rosetta, as they are not Universal Binary.
Unfortunately, there is no easy way to compile them for Intel as they are built using CodeWarrior according to the old SDK model. (SDK=Software Development Kit, which is Apple's "interface" for programming). Compiling for Intel-Mac requires XCode and a heavy re-write of the code, since the XCode SDK has a different structure than the CW one.

IMovie to QT - titles unreadable; also: endless rendering...

Two big problems with iMovie -
I saved my 3 minute movie made entirely of titles (for a vocabulary lesson - I'm a teacher) as a Quicktime - it's completely unreadable it's so blurry.
Using newest versions of quicktime, etc., changed the setting on QT to highest, which worked for the full size (1G!), but did nothing for the web-quality size.
Now, back in iMovie - I tried changing the color of the words to see it that would help and now it won't stop rendering. I've quit, restarted, tried again, etc. but no luck.
Arrgg.
Please advise!

movie made entirely of titles
So you don't really need 30 frames per second showing
the same title, right? And video resolution limits
the readibility, right?
Good point! Yes!
You could use some image editing app (Photoshop,
Graphic Converter etc) to compose images of desired
resolution and insert the titles to them.
Here's the thing:
I'm not using ANY images -
I'm using the titles in iMovie to type in words and definitions
and enjoying the animations I can make the text do for interest.
That's all I need to do. Would I still need to do this in photoshop?
Then name them so they sort as desired and open them
in QT Player Pro as an images sequence with the
desired frame rate. Then export them using some
non-DV codec with the original resolution.
What would that be?
Do a test
which codec is suitable (anyone?).
Thanks for your help!!!

App store says app installed and won't allow update to latest version.

App store says app installed and won't allow update to latest version. My Mac has Iworks from a disc but I can't seem to update to the latest version of Number, Keynote or pages in the App store. The app store identifies the applications as installed but doesn't update them since they were installed from Iworks disc.

all the ICloud numbers spreadsheet pages are now gone. How do I get them back?
Do you mean you were storing the documents in iCloud and now you can't see them from Numbers? If so, you probably need to check to see that iCloud is configured to work with Numbers.
Here in System Preferences > iCloud make sure 'Documents and Data' is checked:
And, after clicking 'Options...', make sure that 'Numbers.app' is checked.
You should be able to see the documents in iCloud when you go up to the title bar at the top of the screen and choose 'iCloud' in the 'Where:' dropdown:

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Missing GarageBand and iMovie apps

Recently I re-installed the OS X Lion of my Macbook and found the GarageBand and imovie apps missing. How and where can I get them back?

I am afraid all apps are tied to the Apple ID they are purchased with and is not transferable.

Just configured my first iPad. Was sure I said no to iCloud , but now having tried out a few apps and then deleted them they seem to exist in iCloud. Why would this be ?.

They don't exist in iCloud.
iCloud is Apple's service for backups and App data storage / syncing.
Purchased Apps, when removed from the iPad will still appear in your Purchased history, and you can still download them from "the" cloud which is just a generic term for Apple's App servers.
Purchased Apps can de re-downloaded for free from the "cloud". To allow you to do this Apple keeps a historic list of all your purchases so you can download them again should you ever need to without charging you again for them.
This has nothing to do with the iCloud service you can choose not to use. For Calendars, Notes etc...
It is independent un unrelated.

After restoring iPad, installing already purchased apps requires re-purchase them. How to avoid re-payment?

DDoes this happen for all apps or just some of them? Some apps always download the lite or free version. Then when you run the app there is a setting to allow you to restore your previous purchase without paying.

Issues with iPhone iMovie app Compression

I just bought a new iPhone5 and installed an iMovie app. I record with the back of the phone which shoots in 1080p. The videos look great even in low light. Yet, after I edit them in iMovie then save to my CAMERA ROLL on my camera, I get audio drops, auto focusing constantly, flickering of video, and jumpyness of the video. Take a look at this private linked video on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mzr8O7SYF8
I've now deleted and reinstalled the imovie app yet I think it compresses way to much with some sort of automatic setting. I'm now gonna have to just edit and cut on a computer video software as the imovie app doesn't seem to work well. Does anyone have any thoughts how I can fix this?

reinstall the app and logout>delete the app>
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. DONT CONNECT YOUR DEVICE TO A COMPUTER.
log in and try again

IMovie App and videos

I have managed to download my vids to my iPad2 from iPhoto but most of them won't import into the iMovie app. Some have, most have not. Any suggestions? My Son's waiting for his wedding movie!

imovie on iPad, in its current statte, is really designed to work with clips shot on ios devices. For other clips try converting to an iPad friendly format. Handbrake has an iPad preset I believe
Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

IMovie App - Movies in vertical mode

I've lots of movies in vertical mode and when I use them in the iMovie App I am losing the top and bottom of the footage. Is there a way I can tell it to recognise the vertical video rather than it chopping the top and bottom off to make it into horizontal mode? Thanks

Have a read of the manual,

IMovie App Crashes after Update on my iPhone

I recently received an update for the iMovie app. I updated the app and the icon looks a bit awkward. When I launched it to check out the feature, it suddenly crashed and took me back to the home screen. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and no luck. Continues to do the same. When I double-tap the Home button my phone, it shows the iMovie active. When I select it, it crashes again. So I was searching for the app on the iTunes Store and somehow it doesn't appear anywhere. Apple - what's going on? I love this app a lot and I don't want to lose this. Please help us and fix this situation.

The app finally came back to the App Store this morning and I was able to re-download. I installed it on my iPhone and it works now. It didn't crash or glitch as it did yesterday. I'm a happy camper now. I can edit a few movie clips (from my camera roll) and put them together to upload to YouTube. Woo-hoo!! :)

How to get back iWork apps if I removed them by mistake.

How to get back iWork apps if I removed them by mistake?
Note that I bought my mac pro retina in the first week of December 2014. Yosemite, Numbers, Pages and Keynote were already installed. By mistake I removed the three apps by dragging them into trash. If I log into the Appstore, I see that Pages, Numbers and Keynote are not available for free now.
How do I get them back?
PS: I want to get the genuine versions without resorting to illegal means or taking advantage of bugs.
Thanks in advance.

Basics of File Recovery
Files in Trash
If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location. OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
If you empty the Trash the files are gone. If a program does an immediate delete rather than moving files to the Trash, then the files are gone. Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When files are deleted only the directory entries, not the files themselves, is modified. The space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage, but the files are still on the drive. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.

Help! why iMovie app stalls when skimming over movie clips? too big a file?

Hello all,
I've only been using a Mac for about a year; and am pretty new to using iMovie as well. I have a Core 2 Duo- Macbook with OS X 10.4.11 and 3 gig of RAM. Anyway, forgive if I don't use the correct terminology:
Okay I know my screencapture vido clips (.mov format) are about 30-67mb. I'm only loading one at a time that I need to work with in the 'New Event" section.
Even if I turn off every application, disable spotlight, take out the widget apps, background running apps, and turn off wireless, I still get the iMovie app...
...um how to describe...hmm.....well....that pinwheel/hourglass....."please wait a sec' thing comes up whenever I take my mouse and try to skim a SHORT amount of video (with no audio i might add). So if I move it then it takes several seconds for the app to catch up and then play the part that i skimmed over. I don't have to move it far or fast. This is happening even though I have added the movie from New Event to the project space.
Ah, I just looked more carefully and this 'catching up' thing is happening no matter what I'm doing like even trying to get to the menu or close part of the project window. And I might add my fan is gets louder and faster a few seconds after trying to do anything in iMovie and goes down after I do something else shortly afterwards. I noticed on the Activity monitor that it's taking ALOT of CPU power to just skim over little bits of video (or so it seems from the spikes in the visual meter in green 'user' bar part)
What's up with this?
Please help as I'm trying to finish this graduate school webpage project that needs to be turned in tomorrow (yeah I know, I procrastinated :-P
I'm also trying to save money from calling Apple Support and pay them because I didn't pay for that extended care plan
Bri

Okay thanks for that explanation of things. I had forgotten about having data/media on a separate HD. I should have remembered that from when I've dabbled in creating music and had read to store one's audio and other data on a separate drive.
So, yes all my media is stored in the same folder and just on the main drive. Also, in the import settings i chose for the files to be copied to where ever it copies them. I thought that might help. Was that a good choice or.....?
I guess in the long term I need to switch to my external drive. However, I'm not at my house at the moment, and can't use the drive because I have to learn to config it anyway into two separate partitions and formats for storing PC stuff on and Mac stuff...currently have a PC-NTFS formatted partition with PC data and haven't taken the time to learn how to do the other partitioning for the Mac.
I need to figure out how I can deal with this stuff between today and tomorrow
So from the info above in the other reply I guess the Mpeg 4 format is not acceptable then for a format as you talk about making it easier to scrubb? I did a quick screen capture to see which file formats I can save stuff in. So are you saying I should have saved the files in DV-PAL format? BTW, I don't have any audio recorded with the file. It's just a visual presentation. also BTW, the reason I chose the mpeg 4 was in thinking that it might be better with the file size when converting the finished iMovie and then converting it to a Flash .flv file so I can put a small video on a webpage.
So would I need to re-save the clips somewhere to another format? Hmm which app would re-save a current video file if I need to do that: iMovie, Flash, Quicktime, iDVD, and Dreamweaver is the stuff I have that would deal with any kind of video.
I hope all this doesn't end up being that I need to use my external HD which I don't have the time to research/re-read that info for dual formatting a drive for PC and HD. Unfortunately, I've got three assignments to do with the time I have today (Tues.) and tomorrow, then school is finished.
