Imovie application quits when trying to add audio

when trying to drag audio into imovie, application automatically quits. If anyone can help, it's greatly appreciated.

I'm running out of ideas but I assume the music plays in iTunes and your iTunes is the iLife5 rather than earlier. When you click on audio at the clips pane (or whatever it is called) I presume you can access the full iTunes library. If you cannot, you have an iLife problem. Then does the crash come from all your tunes.
Before all this you could run Mac Sweeper which you will find (free download) on http://mac.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Mac-Sweeper.shtml
it has good help messages.
1) Carry out all the optimize options the daily weekly and monthly
2) Repair permissions
3) Update prebindings
4) under
b clean,
empty system caches and log files.
Some people find its authorize dialogue misleading it is just asking you to enter the system password to allow it to perform the scripts.

  • Applications Quit when trying to print on HP LaserJet 3055 All-in-one

    Just upgraded from 10.3.9 to 10.4.11 and my applications quit when I try to print on my HP printer which is on a local network. (I can't scan either) I can still print on my USB Epson printer. I have uninstalled and installed the printer software. Everything worked fine on 10.3. I have repaired permissions. What should I do next?

    Hi Bossless,
    Have you checked for the latest drivers on HP's site, their CDs generally come with outdated Drivers, and complicated by the fact that an early 10.4 Driver may not work with 10.4.11
    Many hp Drivers need to be uninstalled by hand before installing a newer version, look for directions on the net for that.

  • Applications quit when trying to print.

    First real problem I have ever had with Apple software. When trying to print a web page in Safari the program quits. Then tried to print an Excel (Office 2004) spreadaheet and the same thing. So it is happening in native and Rosetta. Printer is HP LaserJet 1012 attached to an AirPort Extreme. All other Macs in the house have no problems printing. Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    I've got a similar problem to the one you answered about inability to print- applications just closing ('unexpectedly closed'). I have reinstalled my wireless printer multiple times, still have programs closing when I try to print (Mail, any type of Browser-Safari, Camino, Netscape, Opera). (No problems with printing on the 2 iBooks & iMac on the network.) I've been on the phone with Apple Tech support- they recommended I do an 'Archive & Reinstall'- no help. I even did a clean install (thinking there was a problem with my migration settings from my old iBook)- still same problem. Any hints? Thanks.

  • IMovie Unexpectedly quitting when trying to select a clip

    I am suspecting that I may have a corrupted project. Then again, it could just be a major problem with my Mac. At one point during my import, iMovie unexpectedly quit. I was able to reopen the project and continue the import. Once the import was complete, I attempted to click on a clip, and boom! iMovie unexpectedly quit. I reopened, and was asked to move the clips to the clipboard and all went well. I even was able to save the project. Still any time I select any clip, iMovie unexpectedly quits. For reference, here is a portion of the dialog of the crash:

    My standard list of things to do first for these weird sort of problems, but I also tend to run these before I go to burn an iDVD project just to be safe. Keep in mind this list represents the programs I tend to use. I am running Panther (10.3.9) so Tiger users might want to check the below list for compatibility. There are several alternate programs that do the same things with some combining the functions of some of the ones below. So everyone has their favorites, but here are mine...
    Run MacJanitor (free download) to do all the Unix Cron Maintenance scripts.
    Run Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities) and repair disk permissions on your start up drive (typically your internal drive). Also verify any other drives mounted on the system, especially any external drives that you use for iMovie and iDVD projects.
    Run Preferential Treatment (free download) to check for corrupt/damaged application and system preference files.
    Run Cache Out X (free download) to clear all system and application caches.
    Reboot your Mac (after running Cache Out X you are given the option to restart the machine).
    If you still can not get it to run correctly, next thing to try is to throw out the iMovie preference file (don't forget to change back those preferences you want different from the defaults next time you run it). If it still doesn't work, then I would suggest you reinstall iMovie.

  • IMovie 8 Quits When Trying To Record Lengthy Movie Via iSight

    For a sleep study, I am trying to use my MBP's iSight camera to record a night of me sleeping.
    Each time I try to record using iMovie, the program quits unexpectedly after a few hours. A file of what was recorded is left in a temp file as a .mov file but cannot be opened by QuickTime. The same thing happens when I try to use Photo Booth as my video capture app; PB quits unexpectedly and the resulting .mov file cannot be opened.
    My MBP has a 320GB hard drive with 80+ gigs free, so I wouldn't think this would be a problem. Screen savers and energy saver features are turned off.
    Is there just a simple duration limit for record video in iMovie or Photo Booth?
    Does anyone have suggestions for a fix, or another app that would help me capture 6-8 hours of continuous video via my built-in iSight camera?
    Thanks.

    Hello MrMcG
    Regardless of whether you are recording in standard or high definition, it seems to me that you will need more disk space for real time (as differentiated from Time Lapse) recording.
    As explained in http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/8.0/en/10331.html , 8 hours of video recording would require a minimum of (13b xb 8) = 104Gb free.
    3. Choose the disk where you want to store the video from the Save To pop-up menu.
    You can choose any supported hard disk that’s connected to your computer. It takes 13 gigabytes (GB) of space to store about one hour of video in standard (DV) format and 40 GB for video in high-definition format (HD), so make sure your disk has enough available storage space for the video you’re importing. The amount of free space on each available disk is shown in parentheses next to the disk’s name in the pop-up menu.
    Moreover, OS X requires additional free space for its own operations. (I like to keep at least an additional 50Gb free for OS X headroom, but less may work for you.) Therefore, if you do not want to use Time Lapse photography, you will need to somehow find more disk space. Apple gives some alternatives in the "Making more disk space available" section of http://support.apple.com/kb/TA21009

  • ICal quits when trying to add new events

    I cannot get iCal to add an event without it suddenly closing. The only difference I can tell is now there is always this conflict resolver window from iSync popping up saying there are no conflicts to resolve.

    I have Prem. Elements 12.  I am trying to add audio media.  I know where the audio files are located (using GET INFO while in iTunes), and when I try to add certain audio files, some are accepted and some are not.  In one case, when I opened a particular folder, the song was not listed, even tho' the song is there when using Windows Explorer.  This happens with mp3 and mp4 and just wav files.  Some audio are accepted, most are not.  I get that codec is not installed error message, too.

  • Class is not appearing in "Java Batch Job Class Search" when trying to add.

    Hi,
    I have oracle CC&B 2.3.1, with SDK 2.2.0.12. I am trying to create new java batch job class by copying an existing one and modifying it to be used with new Batch Control .
    Steps are as follows:
    1-Created file by copying the exiting file
    CreateLatePaymentChargesProcess.java ; and only changing the name of the class:
    public class CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess
    extends CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess_Gen
    File location :
    D:\spl\ccb231\applycm\ssgc_patch\java\source\cm\ CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess.java
    D:\spl\ccb231\applycm\ssgc_patch\java\source\cm\ CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess_Gen.java
    2-Run ApplyCm build successfully , which generated these files:
    D:\spl\ccb231\java\target\cm\com\splwg\ccb\domain\billing\batch\ CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess.class
    D:\spl\ccb231\java\target\cm\com\splwg\ccb\domain\billing\batch\ CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess_Gen$1.class

    D:\spl\ccb231\java\target\cm\com\splwg\ccb\domain\billing\batch\CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcess_Gen.class
    All the above classes are part of CM.jar file
    ContextManagedObjects.xml ;  contains these information
    <com.splwg.shared.environ.ContextManagedObjectData>;
    <domainPackages/>
    <lookupFieldClasses class="tree-map">

    <no-comparator/>
    </cobolAlgorithmInterfaceExtensions>
    </com.splwg.shared.environ.ContextManagedObjectData>;
    packageMetaInfo.xml was not created
    Still the class is not appearing in "Java Batch Job Class Search" when trying to add a new program name referencing this java class.
    I tried restarting the Tomcat application server, still not appearing.
    Where did I go wrong about it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Did you copying the base file CreateLatePaymentChargesProcess.java?
    I also create a new batch job which copying the CreateLatePaymentChargesProcess batch code the only difference in getBills() method query and inner class CreateLatePaymentChargesProcessWorker extend CmCreateLatePaymentChargesProcessWorker_Gen, instead of CreateLatePaymentChargesProcessWorker_Gen.
    The batch is working fine in my end.
