IMovie hangs after awhile.

I couldn't really find a forum talking about my situation, so I'll post it here. Whenever, I'm halfway through my iMovie project, iMovie would hang on me and I would have to force quite it. Sometimes, even after force quitting, iMovie just won't quit. So I have to do the tiresome job of restarting. Any ideas what's happening? Thanks in advance!

Same problem (IMovie hangs) but this happens as soon as I open it.
I get the Beach ball and can only force quit by going into Finders first,which will allow me to access the Apple menu (to force quit).
This has been going on for almost a week now. I've done pretty much everything to solve this,from repairing disk permissions and running Onyx to re-installing Imovie 08 and Leopard on my 6 months old Macbook and creating new accounts. with only intermittent sucess.
I've been using Imovie to archive my home videos on a external hard drive and only today did I notice that the problem is consistent if I have the Ext. HD connected but not so with itt.
Would there be some thing with the Seagate HD+Vantec enclosure that is causing this problem or the data that's on it? Some of my film footage on the hard drive is defective in that I believe a magnet was next to the miniDV tapes the film was originally on and the voices or sound is clipped or intermittently missing and it appears the video was as well since I'm getting a hundred thumnails in Imovie for a few minutes of video.
Could all these thumnails video clips be too much for Imovie to handle?
I have 11 gig left on my internal hard drive and 2 gigs of memory and all my software is up to date

  • IMovie Hangs After Full Quality Sharing Is Complete

    Hi,
    Why does this happen? I did a Full Quality Share on a 2-1/2 hour multi-clip movie (using Share Selected Clips Only). The export progress dialog hung after the export was clearly finished. I eventually had to Force Quit iMovie.
    The exported movie looks fine in QT Pro. However, Movie Properties in QT shows that this movie is 24 frames longer than what I exported from iMovie. Doesn't seem to be a big deal, but annoying nonetheless.
    I'm more concerned about iMovie hanging after a long movie export as described.

    2-1/2 hour multi-clip movie (using Share Selected Clips Only)
    so, your project is in timeline even longer then 150min? how much did you import into iM, to create such a "beast"? must be a gigantic project, hm?... Titanic II... ;-))
    iM is a consumer product, we do read of reports here, that from some point of size (imported data, length, complexity of project), iM is a little "overwhelmed..." esp., iM is part of iLife, meaning, mainly meant exports go to tape (=60min max.) or iDVD (120min max.)
    secondly, MacOsX is a UNIX system, which makes excessive use of socalled temp-files on (startup-) harddrive... it is recommended, not to overcrowd the drive 80 - 90% of max.
    probably, your ~35GB of data transfer from a ~60GB project was simply too much for your Mac?
    helpful?

  • IMovie Hang after loading clip made by FCEHD

    I am trying to load movie clip which was made by Final Cut Express HD. The length is about 11.7 GB (56 min).
    But iMovie was hang up when the process was almost done.
    Any idea? Thanks,
    Kenny

    Kenny,
    in FC choose only one sequence as a test and then go on file export to QT and save the .dv file. Within iMovie, choose import from the menu and locate the .dv file and open it. It should open as a clip into your clip pane. Hope that helps. iMovie should not hang itself in this scenario. What you cannot do is to import the sequence directly from FC into iMovie.

  • Firefox hangs after answering yes to Firefox 4 upgrade

    Today when My wife started Firefox from her account she was presented with a window asking if she wanted to update to Firefox 4. She answered yes. At that point Firefox (v3.6.16) became unresponsive with no indication that anything was happening. After some time she tried to shut down Firefox by clicking the X in the upper right corner of the window. She then got the Windows End Program box stating that the program was not responding and allowing her to shut the program down.
    She then restarted Firefox and after what seemed to be a normal start up with the home page being displayed, Firefox would again hang after selecting a bookmarked site.
    When my wife called my attention to this problem, I decided to try it from my Windows XP account to see if the problem only happened in her account. When I first opened Firefox, I briefly saw a progress bar indicating Firefox was being updated. Firefax then opened and loaded two tabs, my home page which is set to the google.com/firefox start page and the same Firefox 4 anouncement page that my wife got when she first started Firefox. When I then selected most bookmarked web sites or even the Firefox Support link on the home page, Firefox would hang and require ending the task to exit. Terminating Firefox in this manner, and restarting Firefox produced the same result. Rebooting the PC after terminating Firefox also produced the same result. Using IE8 to visit the same web sites was successful and resulted in no hangups. In fact, I am currently using IE8 to post this question.
    After restarting and trying many web sites, I did find some sites that opened normally. One was the About Mozilla link on the home page and another was a local weather site: wunderground.com.
    I also ran Firefox in safe mode from the command line and got the same hanging which I understand indicates that the problem is not being caused by any plugins or extensions.
    Any suggestions as to how I can fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the suggestions. As it turned out Firefox seemed to fix itself!!! First I must add that I don't believe that my wife clicking on the Firefox 4 update button had anything to do with the hangups. There was no indication that anything had been downloaded. Firefox would start normally but hang when trying to load most web sites. Usually a progress bar would be displayed at the bottom of the page that would never completely load. Clicking on the "Stop loading this page" button would only result in the Firefox symbol at the top left corner turning to a white square and Firefox would become non-responsive requiring an end task to shut down. It acted like an Internet problem but as I reported before, when I tried the same sites in IE they loaded properly. Also rebooting had no immediate effect.
    As I kept trying in my account, more and more web sites started to load properly. After a couple of days, there were no more hang ups occurring at all in my account. The only changes I had made was to disable a couple of extensions: DownloadHelper and Freecorder Community Toolbar in my account. These were never installed in my wife's account and had no immediate effect after disabling them. Unfortunately, Firefox would still hang in my wife's account. She had changed the default browser to IE and when I opened Firefox in her account I got the message box asking if I wanted to change the default to Firefox. At that point clicking on anything resulted in a hang as before. I even tried setting the default browser back to Firefox in Windows "Set Program Access and Defaults" and rebooting but got the same result when I tried running Firefox again.
    Now, after doing nothing to Firefox for a couple of days, Firefox is working correctly in both accounts??? I did notice a lot of hard drive activity during the time I was working this problem. Hmmm.
    I use Norton 360 v4 as my security protection on this machine. They have now released v5 which I am about to upgrade to. I wonder if their LiveUpdate was doing something that affected Firefox?
    I think I will wait awhile before trying to update to Firefox 4.

  • Satellite U400-22n and Win7 - screen hangs after 5 min

    Hi, This is my first post
    Ive purchased a new U400 with Vista preinstalled, last week ; 2 days ago Ive upgraded to windows 7 32bit professional when I stared Installing it windows prompted me that it requires a full installation , so I done a normal full install, windows 7 installed normally .
    Now my screen hangs after 5 min and windows gos black and reboots after 3-5 min, Ive downloaded all the drivers from the Toshiba site Ive used the auto detect, and installed the drivers one by one and tested if the reboot stops , Ive reinstalled windows now 4-5 time returned my copy to the shop and got a new copy of the windows DVD, its the same,
    Please has some one any advice for me. As the shop Ive perched this from will not upgrade to windows 7 for me.

    hi Mather,
    any bluescreens visible?
    win7 32bit i guess...
    you have to install all the drivers for win7 provided by toshiba in the right order!
    first chipset and patchfiles if available...
    i think a clean install will do the job!
    make sure that the hdd is error free!
    you can upgrade from vista 32bit to win7 32bit
    but no chance to upgrade to a win7 64bit when a vista 32bit is installed...

  • With TSM adware removal tool I was able to remove unknown software that was making ads pop up when using Safari. So the y don't pop up anymore. The problem now is that when I open safari It is still downloading websites and after awhile it

    With TSM adware removal tool I was able to remove unknown software that was making ads pop up when using Safari. So the y don't pop up anymore. The problem now is that when I open safari It is still downloading websites and after awhile it freezes the browser. I have to constantly go to Safari Preferences to remove them and then the browser will start working again. What can I do to stop this?

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Iphoto hangs after upgrading to Yosemite and latest iPhoto version

    It tells me the library needs upgrading, and starts to search the library. The progress bar suggests something is happening then hangs after about 99% completion. I have had to force close twice after several hours stuck at that point and then start the whole process from scratch when I restart.

    Have you followed these instructions - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/Help/rebuilding%20a%20corrupted%20iphoto%20li brary.html
    iPhoto Library Manager > Help > Rebuilding a corrupted iPhoto library
    Printable help
    Rebuilding a corrupted iPhoto library
    If you have an iPhoto library that is corrupt and causing iPhoto to crash or otherwise be unusable, iPhoto Library Manager provides the ability to rebuild your library based on the information found in its library data files. Note that iPhoto also has a built-in rebuild function that can be sometimes be used to repair a corrupted library database. You can find instructions on how to use that on Apple's website at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638 (iPhoto 6 or later) or http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2042 (iPhoto 5 or earlier).
    iPhoto Library Manager's rebuild works differently, in that instead of trying to repair the library in place, it creates a brand new library and tries to reimport the entire contents of the original library into the new one, including reconstructing albums, photo metadata, etc. Note that rebuilding a library has all the same limitations as other photo transfer operations as far as what can and can't be copied between libraries. Also, depending on how badly damaged the library is, iPhoto Library Manager may or may not be able to piece together some or all of the library metadata.
    To start a rebuild, select the library you would like to rebuild, then choose the "Rebuild Library" item from the "Library" menu. You will be prompted to choose a location for the rebuilt library, and whether or not you want iPLM to scavenge orphaned photos it finds in the library package. Once you've made your choices, iPLM will examine the library and rebuild the library structure and photos as best it can, then display you a preview of what it was able to find. If your library is badly damaged and the preview is missing a lot of content from the original library, this can save you from going through with a rebuild that won’t end up being of much help.
    Once you've had a chance to examine the preview, if you want to go forward and create the rebuilt library, click the "Rebuild" button in the upper right. iPhoto Library Manager will create a new library and start importing the contents of the original library into the new one.
    Scavenging photos
    In some cases, either the iPhoto library database is too damaged for iPhoto Library Manager to be able to salvage any information from it, or the library data is incomplete and there are photos that still exist inside the library package, but iPhoto has lost track of them. In these cases, you may want to check the "Scavenge orphaned photos" checkbox when choosing a location for the rebuilt library. After iPhoto Library Manager has read the library data as best it can, it will perform an additional pass through the package and locate any photos that are no longer referenced in the library database. Any additional photos that are found will be included in the rebuild, and a new "Scavenged Photos" album will be created in the rebuilt library containing any scavenged photos.

    I had uninstalled iMovie 10 after it was updated and decided to reinstall it but it won't update, iMovie 10 update is stuck at installed in my App Store account. How do I get it the update to revert to uninstalled so I can re-update iMovie 10 to 10.0.1? iMovie 9.0.9 (iLife 11) is still installed and working.

    What in particular didn't you like about Firefox 6?
    You can undo a lot of changes, either via changing settings or prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page or via extensions.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/common-questions-after-updating-firefox
    Do a clean reinstall of the version that you want to use.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    *Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Hello HaithamOkeely,
    We've an article that provides the following troubleshooting steps that may help stabilize your iPhone.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

  • Powerbook G4 hangs after few minutes of usage

    Since February 06 I have a PB G4: 1.67GHZ, model Powerbook5,8
    Since this weekend it hangs after a few minutes of usage.
    I tried a whole load of possible solutions, like resetting the RAM, removing the battery and holding the powerbutton for 5 seconds...I even held it once for half a minute, but that didn't help. Checking the harddrive with disk utility (tried it often, but only once did the PB work long enough to get the end result: hard drive is healthy).
    Often, when it hangs, I can get it to work by simply turning it off and on again. That gives me another window of 2 minutes of usage! Handy throughout the day when I need a file, or a document: I simply boot the machine, get the file and shut it down.
    Carbon copy to an external HD does not work: the system hangs a few minutes after copying.
    I installed a utility named applejack, and the first time I tried it, I got an interesting error: there were errors with the USB controller or USB bus, and system hangs. I didn't make a screenshot so this is out of the top of my head.
    This was interesting because when I tried to make a HD copy (and believe me: I tried lots and lots of times), the system freezes first, and then an error about not unmounting a device popped into the screen. As if the touchpad, keyboards, and all other i/o devices stop working, and the system goes on for a few seconds more.
    Sometimes the system just hangs, sometimes I get that black kernel panic screen.
    Just before writing this, I tried the hardware test on the install CD once more:
    Held down the option key, chose the hardware test -> quick test and..
    system hangs after completion of the test
    A message appeared in the bottom-left corner. Several lines of information, starting with:
    "ERROR, Write to location ZERO detected!!, Loc zero was originally zero
    Current File: Localization/en/Scripts/enAHTscript.sc"
    etc
    I live on a nice island in the Caribbean, so popping into the nearest Apple store means getting on a flight to Miami first.
    What -if any- are my options? Is there something I can try to do myself before shipping it to Apple? Opening the case, checking this or that?
    By the way, I originally posted this in the Titanium folder, but someone mentioned that I might actually have a Aluminum PB.
    see http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2074854#2074854

    hi joeuu,
    I have 1.5GB mem: one 512 stick and one 1GB and I already tried the sticks one at a time: it hangs with the original 512, it hangs with the 1GB and it hangs with them together in both possible slot settings.
    I managed to copy the panic.log in /Library/Logs/ and here it is:

    Now what can we read from this?
    I see in here "AppleUSBTrackpad" and "AppleUSBOHCI".
    Referring to my original post: I have seen an error (a few days ago, when working with applejack) that also mentioned USB.
    I'm very afraid that this is a hardware issue. Reading through some other posts, I saw something about a ribbon that gave problems. What are your thoughts?

  • Database hangs after retrieving some records....

    hi,
    I create a two level B+-tree index, for the first level i'm using key as logical database name, for the second level B+-tree i'm using some other field in my data. I am retrieving the records based on logical database name. I am using C++ to implement my index.
    In the following code i'm retrieving records from database. Program is behaving differently for different logical database names. For example in my database i have around 4 lakhs records with logical database name 'A' and around 1 lakh of records with logical database name 'B'. The following code displays all B records but programs hangs after retrieving some A records.
    I'm using PAGE_SIZE=8192, numBuffers=2048, and runnig in Fedora Core3.
    DbEnv myEnv(0);
         myEnv.set_cachesize(0, PAGE_SIZE * numBuffers, 0);
         myEnv.set_data_dir("/home/raviov/new/database");
              try {
                   myEnv.open("./", DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_MPOOL, 0);
              catch (DbException &e) {
                   cerr << "Exception occurred: " << e.what() << endl;
                   exit(1);
              db=new Db(&myEnv,0);
              db->set_pagesize(PAGE_SIZE);     
              db->set_bt_compare(compare_int);
         dbname=itoa(p);

  • System hang after key in YF98 (Report for sales tax payable)

    Hi all,
    do u know wat is the problem of sys hang? i already terminate the transaction code, but sys hang also........
    Thanks for helping

    Dear V.Krishnan ,
    I already told BASIS to restart the server, but they reject to restart the server cos they worry later they cannot up the server.
    They keep asking me debug the program, but the problem is the sys hang after i key in the transaction code, i cant do nothing after that. In development server, the sys is OK after i enter the transaction code. Can u tell me wat to do now?

  • Problem in reading data from serial port continuously- application hangs after sometimes

    I need to read data from two COM port and order of data appearance from COM port is not fixed. 
    I have used small timeout and reading data in while loop continously . If my application is steady for sometime it gets hangs and afterwards it doesnt receive any data again. 
    Then I need to restart my application again to make it work.
    I am attaching VI. Let me know any issue.
    Kudos are always welcome if you got solution to some extent.

    What do you mean, "not fixed?"  If there is no termination character, no start/stop character(s) or even a consistent data length, then how can you really be sure when the data starts and stops?
    I probably misunderstood you though.  Assuming the last case is not ture - there is a certain length to the data - then you should use the bytes at port, like in the otherwise disastrous serial port read example.  In this case, it's NOT disastrous.  You have to make sure that you read all the data that came through.  Right now you have no idea how much data you just read.  Also, if this is streaming data, you might want to break it out into a producer/consumer design pattern.
    Not fixed means order is not fixed, data from any com port can come anytime. lenght is fixed, one com port have 14 byte and other 8 byte fixed..
    Reading data is not an issue for me as it works nice but I have a query that why my application hangs after sometime and stops reading data from COM PORT.
    Kudos are always welcome if you got solution to some extent.
