IMovie 'File Move to library' not working
Greetings all. I'm trying to help a friend move iMovie events from one iMovie library stored on his internal drive to a second iMovie library stored on an external hdd. We started just dragging events from one library to the other, and that worked for most things. We are stuck with a couple big events -- one roughly 30GB and one roughly 60GB in size. When we attempt to manually drag them, they don't move, just pop back. There is lots of space on the external drive, it's a brand new ThunderBolt 1TB LaCie Rugged clean-formatted via Disk Utility.
I've tried highlighting an offending event and going to File > Move to library, and it shows the destination library blackened and able to choose, but chosing it does nothing.
I've tried going in the back door inside iMovie Library > show package contents, taking the offending event out of the internal drive iMovie library and placing it in the package contents of the external iMovie Library, but iMovie didn't see the contents of the moved event (though it did recognize there was a new event). I put it back and it shows again.
I have been looking for a "rebuild iMovie library" as there is for iPhoto, but haven't found one.
I wonder if there is a temp file that I can delete inside the iMovie Library on the external drive that, once it's deleted and newly rebuilt by iMovie, it would see an event that i put in via the back door.? is the file "CurrentVersion.flexolibrary" that file?
Anyone have any tricks to share? Thanks!
13" rMBP 2013 running 10.9.2 (I'm having him software update everything available presently), with *only 7GB available* on his 750GB internal SSD. This process is part of our plan to get enough free space on the boot drive for the machine to run semi-normally. he was down to 1GB free recently
iMovie 10.0.3
repaired disk x2- no issues found
repaired permissions x2 - a minor, short list
run scheduled maintenance and deleted cache and all via Onyx
have NOT YET rebuilt directories via Disk Warrior (I will when I meet him next)
"Won't add to library and doesn't give an error message" is usually a sign of minor corruption in the MP3 file. Treat it with a 3rd party tag cleanup program such as MP3val, and then it should be able to be added to your iTunes library.

I am trying to change the date on an imported home video clip. I entered 9/7/2012 and got 6/9/0339! I checked modify original file, but it is not working. Any ideas?
Are you using the Adjust Date and Time option or the Batch Change option? If it's the former try the latter. If you get the same results launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import the same video file and check to see if the same problem persists.

Is their a fix for photoshop elements 11 move tool? Not working with Yosemite OS upgrade.
Is their a fix for photoshop elements 11 move tool? Not working with Yosemite OS upgrade.
Hi,
We sincerely apologize for the problem customers are facing while using a trackpad with Photoshop Elements 11 & 12 on Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
We have been actively working with Apple to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We're hopeful this will get completely resolved in an upcoming update of Yosemite(MAC 10.10).
In the meanwhile, you have two options to work around this problem:
1. Option1: Use a mouse instead of the trackpad
2. Option2: Install a plug-in which should workaround the problem
Plug-in installation instructions:
1. Close Photoshop Elements
2. Download this zip file to a location you can easily find (e.g. your desktop)
3. Unzip the file, WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin, and move it to the Plug-In folder:
• For Elements 12 – //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
• For Elements 11 - //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
You can verify the plug-in is installed by launching the Photoshop Elements Editor and choosing Help > System Info... Scroll to the bottom of the text in the dialog and look for the plug-in name "WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin".
Note: This plugin is a temporary workaround and should be used until this issue is addressed in Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). Please remove this plugin once the issue is officially resolved by Apple.
If you are using a stylus in conjunction with a trackpad, you might see issues with your trackpad. Workaround in this particular case is to use mouse instead of the trackpad.
Hope this helps!

ipad i have load swf file but swf is not working proper(flex 4.6) but android is fine to work how
On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed. -
File type associations is not working in the App-V 4.6 SP3
Hello,
I found issue, that file type associations is not working in App-V 4.6 SP3. When I try to open associated file with double click I receive next window:
Translate: This action is only valid for products that are currently installed.
I have checked associations in App-V Console and in OSD file, everything looks like OK.
Maybe someone has some ideas?
Could you please share them with me?
Thank you in advance.Is this only happening on one client machine? If so can you completely clear the application and re-stream\cache it again?
If that fails, you could try to create the FTA locally on the client

Application "FINDER"not responding,Desktop files disappeared & " also "Trash" not working svn after relaunching several times.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process (Finder) in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful. -

I added preset motions to my interactive pdf file. It's not working when I export my file as an interactive pdf. It's working when I play it on the Preview panel. I must not be doing something right. Does anybody have any clue what I need to do to have my presets motions work when played on Acrobat
So do you mean export the whole document in a swf file format and then bring the whole swf file in and save it as a pdf file. Is there way to export these motion presets seperately and bring them back into Indesign. I wish it was less difficult but I guess there is no way around it for the time being.

Itunes 11 "add to library" not working (drag and drop too)
I just updated to itunes 11 and the add to library function is not working both manually and drag and drop. I used to be able to add a video to the itunes media file, click add to library, click the file and it would pull it in to itunes. None of this works including the drag and drop feature. The preferences folder is set correctly.....please help.
brockIt appears movies added to iTunes manually (not purchased through iTunes), are automatically put in the "Home Movie" media kind/category. I don't remember this kind in previous iTunes, but maybe it's just not one I used. I've seen where this is due to using MetaX, but I don't think so as "Home Movie" is not an option in MetaX. I cannot find any option in iTunes preferences to change this. Maybe Apple will change this in an update - I hope so. For now, I just go in and manually change this in the movie Info setting. I keep all of my movies in digital format, so this is a bit of a pain.

When I try to export an Aperture slideshow to movies it does not work. Why?
Before I upgraded to Lion and had an Aperture 3 update I could easily export a slideshow as a movie from Aperture and then create a DVD. Now no matter what I do this will not work. Any suggestions?
I visited the Apple store in Belfast and am delighted to say received the following advice which worked.
Make sure Aperture is closed.
Finder then Go then Computer then Macintosh HD then Library then Application Support then Aperture then delete all files ending in .plist.
2.1. Macintosh HD then Library the Quicktime then delete Contents.
Finder then Go then Alt then Library then Application Support then Aperture then deleteall .plist except for metadatasets.plist.
Then start Aperture. -
Windows XP file/folder handling does not work? (RSP Rules!)
Sorry if this has been asked many times before, but a forum search on "folder" does not return anything ??? (amazing)
I am trying to make sense out of where and when to use folders and collections and I wish there would be more info in the help/manual.
Lesson learned so far: you can spend an awful lot of time flagging images as rejected and then delete them from a quick collection, only to find out that they are only removed from the (logical) quick collection, not from the (physical) folder on the file system. @!x$
Now, it seams that any folder action does either not work at all or only works partially:
- I cannot import an empty folder, to put images in later
- I cannot drag and drop more than one file at a time to a folder
- When I create a new folder, I never get to see it or name it in Lightroom. It gets created on the file system however, as "new folder (x)".
Why are there no settings under "preference" where to put libraries, back-ups of libraries, which library to use at startup, where and how to create/store previews and their lifetime and so on?
Also, there should be a much more convenient way in the handling of multiple computers and creating/restoring backups!
Reading some of the endless complaints about file corruptions and file losses, I think I will return to RawShooter Premium untill I finally get the feeling that my images and the work on them are safe within Lightroom. RSP is also WAY more snappy and responsive (except for the slide show)!Jeff: You truly offered some amazing insight here! I really thought that Adobe bought Pixmantec for their technology and for the wizzards that drove that technology. Now you made it clear that all that is limited to "inspiration". Wow! So, why DID Adobe buy Pixmantec? Market share? Take the most brilliant and cheap competitor off the market? Some other reason???
Apart from that: I DO know that writing software is not easy. It must be really unpleasant for the hard working "scary brilliant" experts with a serious track history to hear people complain about issues like file handling on a particular operating system instead of admiring their brilliant ideas and concepts.
Alas, this is life: if you would buy a car you would bring it back to the garage to complain about the lock in the trunk that opens at awkward times leading you to loose your groceries instead of talking to those people about how magnificent that particular car takes you trough corners at 100 mph.
And I still believe that the RSP folks did a better job with their version 1 than Adobe did with LR, knowing that Lightroom is more complicated than RSP and taking into consideration that the Adobe people have a much longer history and experience with Photoshop/Album/Bridge. So I would say Adobe can learn a lot from the RSP boys. Just do it!
Tim: as I'm planning to move from RSP to LR (maybe wait until 1.1), the most important starting information I'm looking for right now is how to set up my filesystem and the LR database for the most efficient way of working and for the "most" data security. Neither the LuLa tutorial nor the help file/manual seem to offer much information on this -I believe extremely important- topic.
All this aside from what seems like Windows file handling bugs to me, hopefully adressed in version 1.1 -
I purchased my 27" iMac in October 2010 after attending classes we discovered my computer needed new graphics card, hard drive, and a total rebuild after owning it only 6 months. Apple rebuilt my new computer, several months later same issues began yet again, slowly Apple began replacing defective parts they installed, my computer still hasn't worked as it should and has been in and out of Apple all the time sometimes they keep it for weeks! running tests?? February 10, 2013 I took my imac back in because it has been taking upwards of 6 minutes to make 1 single edit in imovie after 6 days of editing my project I could No Longer save in itunes, external HD, or export my imovie videos (they are 4 min up to 20 min max) Apple informed me that my Hard Drive was corrupt a bad batch of Seagate HD had been installed and my computer was again affected by this and it needed to be replaced and they couldn't get it to respond at all my itunes library was missing, etc. We saved my videos on my external HD I brought in with me. The Genius bar said they would call me in 3-5 days for me to pick up my computer. 9 Days later not hearing back from them I went in to get an update February 19, 2013 No one can tell me what was done except my HD was replaced they can't answer my questions about my itunes library being reinstated or my videos, music is missing, podcasts, etc. I was even using icloud, empty? They tell me IF I find anything wrong or not working again to just bring it back. My iMovie videos ALL the edits are missing ? I can't find ANY of my videos in my itunes my Library is empty as it is in imovie except for 2 videos? HELP! I can't imagine having to re-edit my entire video with sound effects, fronts, graphics, etc. I spent weeks on this :-( I'm at my wits end with my iMac.... I have searched in my previous itunes library EMPTY ! Waaaah! I want my mommy....
The Apple Store is not responsible for data loss and generally does not do any backups of your data before performing any repairs, though in some cases, as seems to be the case in yours, they guide you to making your own backup. Here's what they say on the "getting service page" (when I've taken a system in for service a similar statement was presented to me when I agreed to the service):
Many repairs require Apple to replace or reformat the hard disk, which will result in the loss of your data. Please make sure you back up your data on a regular basis to minimize your data loss. Learn more about backup options. Apple and Apple Authorized Service Providers are not responsible for any damage to or loss of any applications, data, or other information stored on your Mac desktop while performing service.
Since you say that you backed up your videos before the drive was replaced, why can you not just restore them? And did you not back up anything else?
If you didn't make any sort of backup of your other data prior to taking the iMac in for service, then sorry but your data is almost certainly gone. Regular reliable backups are a must, particularly when dealing with content you spend a lot of time creating. You may be able to re-download any content you purchased from the iTunes Store or Mac App Store, but anything else you'll have to recreate or re-obtain from the original source.
Regards.

Hi Experts,
We created a par file which will copy a file from a folder and copy this onto a seperate folder under the same parent folder. This applications works well on testing system, but is not working when deployed to the portal server where it supposed to work.
Please give your thoughts and your valuable suggestions on this issue.
