IMovie HD 6.03 support on Mivericks

I am on Snow Leopard mainly because I like iMovie HD 6.03. If I upgrade to Mivericks will this support the this older version of iMovie?

Updating Ken Burns stills works only until you empty the trash in iMovie HD 6.0.3.

Imovie 11 does not support 8MM?

I have been struggling in the Imac community on a problem for a while. I have an old Sony Handycam TRV-530 that uses digity 8mm tape. My Imac is one of the new ones that no longer has a firewire port. I purchased the firewire to Thunderbolt adapter at my local Apple store. When I plug the camcorder into the Thunderbolt port on the Imac, I can see the camcorder on FaceTime. I can use the camcorder as my camera on FaceTime. When I pull up Imovie so that I can import all my old home movies, Imovie does not recognize the camcorder. I then took the firewire cable and plugged it directly into my wife's 2009 Macbook's firewire port, the camcorder was immediately recognized and was ready to import. Her Macbook has Imovie 9.
So.....either there is a problem with the Thunderbolt adaptor or Imovie 11 no longer supports 8MM digital tape? How can I determine the correct answer?

Hi I have a similiar problem to yours with imovie 11. Just wondering if you could tell me how you fixed yours?
I purchased my new iMac two days ago mainly to use iMovie.
But after editing projects for around 30mins it seems to freeze and requires a force quit. When I restart I can't edit or playback the project, almost as though it is locked.
I've tried deleting preferences for imovie and repairing through utilities. I've also tried deleting the projects and starting new ones but the same problem happens after about 30mins of editing.
Installed latest updates for OS X 10.7.1, and using imac with imovie 11
I'm a brand new mac user and to encounter this problem after just one hour of use is quite frustrating.
Ps. I'm not sure if its related but in Finder on the left when all the places are listed, I don't see my username... not sure if it should be there?

Poor video from iMovie 11 imported from supported Sony HD camcorder

Poor video from iMovie 11 imported from supported Sony HD camcorder
Latest model New iMac 27 " screen 3.4 ghz intel core I7, 12 GB of memory running Mac OS X version 10.7.4
Imovie 11 version 9.0.7
New Sony hd camcorder model HDR560V, 64 gigs of internal flash memory, recording at highest quality hd settings.
Transfer is via USB.
Video in camcorder screen is perfect, same video connected directly from camera to a monitor is perfect. Also seems to be ok when importing into a Mac Book pro.
Import into the iMac using iMovie 11and played back full screen on the iMac has the look of soft VHS tape, not tack sharp and pronounced video lag when panning or when a subject moves across the screen. Has anyone else resolved a similar issue? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I paid for 3 years of Apple protection care but Genius bar experts at local Apple store are stumped.
thanks

I'm sorry, I didn't know Imovie has it's own Forum- it's not listed here. Looks like I need an adapter for memory card, because I have an older Mac which doesn't have a slot for the card.

Importing to iMovie and video formats supported

I'm new to iMovie, and I'm still running '08, and I don't know what video formats are supported. I ripped a home video DVD using HandBrake and found out that iMovie 08 doesn't support .m4v. I tried saving it as a Quicktime Movie file with Quicktime Pro, but iMovie still wouldn't import. Can anyone tell what I can do because I really want to edit my video and burn it on more discs for the rest of my family. So, any help on what formats are supported and what I can do to import my video to iMovie is what I would like help with, please.Thanks for any help.

Check out the iMovie 08 discussion group. You will find a lot of knowledgeable people there.
iMovie will import h.264 (m4v), but it will not import extra tracks such as closed caption tracks, tween tracks, chapter tracks, etc. Make sure handbrake is including these.
You can go into QuickTime Pro and remove extra tracks.
Sometimes, people have reported that simply renaming your m4v file as an .mov file will make it importable. Not sure if this will work in your case.

Does iMovie for the iPad support green screen functionality?

Was wondering if someone could help me out with this I want to incorporate the use of green screen in my classroom.

Sorry to say that I, too, am having trouble with my camera and iMovie. I have an Olympus Stylus-9000, and it doesn't pick up when I try to import to iMovie. I checked the list of iMovie-supported cameras online, and not one Olympus model was there. I guess we're just unlucky...

IMovie.app is not supported on this architecture - can't re-install

I'm trying to start up iMove 09 which I've been using since I bought it. I get an error that says.
You cannot open the application "iMovie.app" because it is not supported on this architecture.
I tried to re-install it from the disks and it gets to the page where I can customize the install, but nothing is checked and it won't let me check anything.
Need some help here please.
Thanks

It sounds like a problem with your graphics card. Do you have a dual display set up or any external graphics cards set up?
If not, here is an old trick, but it might work...
Open System Preferences/Displays
Change the resolution to some other resolution.
Change colors from millions to something else (thousands?)
Apply your changes.
Now go back and change your display settings to the original settings that you prefer (and change colors back to millions).
Sometimes that will reset the graphics card.

IMovie '11 file formats supported?

What video file formats are supported by iMovie '11?

iMovie is meant for camcorder imports.
so, it basicly supports camera 'formats'.
but the underlying Quicktime-engine handles a few other formats as well

Does iMovie for iOS have support for 60fps video?

I Have an iPhone 6 and love the new 60fps video Capability. But when I merged several into one video using iMovie, it reduced the fps to 30. WHY? Apple, if you're reading this, please update iMovie to support 60fps videos. Why put an awesome product out without backing it up with existing products?

Sorry to say that I, too, am having trouble with my camera and iMovie. I have an Olympus Stylus-9000, and it doesn't pick up when I try to import to iMovie. I checked the list of iMovie-supported cameras online, and not one Olympus model was there. I guess we're just unlucky...

Failed checksum when downloading iMovie update from Apple support

I have been trying multiple times to download the iMovie 9.0.6 update, but on each and every occasion I get the errormessage "failed checksum" when trying to install it. What should I do?

I have a Macbook pro unibody 13 mid 2010, I made the firmware update too, the day after I had suddenly my computer freezing when I was watching videos on youtube. I tried to restart it, and it was stucked to a white screen. I tried all the possible solutions, : SMC reset multiple times, NVRAM/PRAM reset multiple times.
I tried to reinstall the system from the dvd, and from a USB key : Impossible to install it as no hd was showing up in the list of availaible drives. I tried the online restoration. Tried with another hd with lion on it. The only thing that worked was to launch the system from an external usb drive, when it was launched, the wifi and bluetooth cards were not working (no cards).
I tried to launch the same hd with lion on it on another macbook (no firmware updates made on this macbook), and the wifi and the bluetooth was working fine on it.
I really do believe that this update has something to do with my problems, and expect from Apple to fix them

IMovie and ipad storage support

I have an ipad 2 and made a movie project of pictures and it will not save because it says storage is full. How do I free of storage on my ipad2?

you simply have to delete stuff. Apps, and more importntly, the data tied to the apps. Sound and video take a lot of space.
If you have decent back up habits, you can get it all back when you need to. Look in settings, general, usage, and if you wait a while, all the apps will appear. Touch one and it will show you how mucg data is associated with the app. You can delete from there if you want.
you can send some things to the cloud - i cloud or drop box, then delete from the pad.
but you are stuck until you clean off some stuff.

Geo-Tagging/GPS support in iMovie 11

I own a Sony Camera that uses geo-tagging, iMovie 9 didn't support the GPS tag that is added to each video where iPhoto did for stills taken with the same Camera. Now that iPhones do video does iMovie allow for Geo-Tags?

I am surprised that that does not work.
In any event, there is a free tool caled MPEG Streamclip which you can get from Squared 5.
You can drag the MPEG4 file into MPEG Streamclip and choose FILE/EXPORT TO MPEG 4. Choose h.264 as the compression. That should import.

Here is how I import a DVD into iMovie try it. Get yourself a 4 Gig Thumb Drive plug it in.
Insert the DVD when the DVD Player comes up close it.
Double click the DVD icon on the desk top and drag the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS
folder into the Thumb Drive. Open iMovie 8 or 9 it may take a Minute or more
iMovie see's the Thumb Drive as camera and you may import the content. Thats it, plain and simple
have fun Cheers Herb

IMovie'11 support for Panasonic HDC-TM700

Hi,
I am considering the purchase of the Panasonic HDC-TM700 camcorder. The iMovie compatibility list has an entry for this camcorder with the note that 1080p/60fps is not supported. I would ASSUME that this camcorder can be set for 1080p/30fps as well but I have not been able to find an on-line manual or other specification that lists anything but 1080p/60. Can anyone confirm that this camera could also be set to 1080p/30fps?
Thanks.

The TM700 is a great camcorder. Despite being an avid iMovie HD (iM 6) supporter, I have started using iMovie 11 and it has won me over a bit. Still prefer iM6, but 11 is on the right road.
I use the SD600 (little brother to the TM700) and if you are prepared for a bit of extra work, it works fine with iMovie.
This range of camcorders record in standard AVCHD (1080i) and this can be imported into iMovie with no bother at all. This is the same top quality footage the most good HD camcorders shoot at the moment. You can save yourself a few headaches and simply record in standard AVCHD at top quality and I'm sure you will be more than satisfied with the result.
The only problem comes, that these Panasonics also 'raise the bar' and record in an even higher new format called 1080p50 or 60. This is AVCHD in almost every respect, but is Progressive, takes a fair bit of processing power and as a new format, isn't universally recognised. iMovie doesn't recognise these video clips as AVCHD movie files and so won't work with it, hence that proviso in the supported cameras list. As I say, you don't have to record in 1080p (progressive rather than interlaced) it is just an additional option available to you.
I do however record in this top quality and there are a couple of extra steps required. The movies can't be viewed with quicktime or iMovie, but players like VLC or Movist play them no problem. Secondly, these video files have to be converted to a format that is recognised by iMovie if you want to edit them. I use the free Automater script Rewrap2M4V but there are others such as ClipWrap and Voltaic that will also do the job for you. Once converted they can be imported into iMovie like any other movie file and the quality is excellent, and hopefully as the format becomes accepted, then the files may be able to be imported without conversion.

Why don't iMovie support native HDV capture and editing?

i would like to see iMovie HD 6 to support native HDV capture and edit. is it possible?

no, FCE-HD (what an abreviation!) uses the same trick as iM-HD, converting HiDef into AIC....
native HD is really more for the pros... yet! I think, the basic problem to be solved first is -r media, meaning, any HD/blue-ray-DVD-r disks, which make it possible for the average user to store his/her products.... but as far as I follow the discussion, right now the industry is caring more for commercial disks, and that HDMI "problem" (broadcasting can include a copyprotection, so no use of any HD/DVD HiDef recorders...!)... finally, we can record only our selfmade movies... maybe that's a little less joy...
actually, converting finished HDmovies into h264 with a high bitrate and storing that onto hd is the only realistic option........

Does iMovie '11 support 1080-60p?

Since there is no forum yet for the just released iMovie '11, pardon me for posting this year.
I was wondering if the new iMovie '11 will be supporting 1080-60p from Panasonic TM700K camcorder? And if so, will it convert and bloat the files to several times the original size?

I too have the SD600 in the UK recording at 1080/50p. No, iMovie '08, 09, and (whilst I haven't got it the general opinion seems to include '11) do not natively support 1080 at 50p or 60p.
I've always used iMovie 06 or Final Cut Express (which to be fair don't handle that resolution either) so I'm not fully up to speed with what I refer to as the 'iTube Trilogy' - In short, the latest '08, '09 & '11 products should be shipped under a different name than iMovie - They are more for assembling clips and posting them online or by email. IM '06, FCE and Final Cut Pro are movie making software packages.
So, your options .................
Record in lower / 'standard' AVCHD resolutions. These 1080i formats are fully accepted by iMovie '09 /'11, but be warned.... Whilst I have little experience of the iTube Trilogy, the general verdict is that to handle interlaced footage, they remove every other line of resolution, so downgrading your beautiful camcorder footage before you've even started. Fine for Youtube, but not good for DVD's or movies.
Record in 1080p and save your video to an external hard drive for a future day when video editing software catches up.
Record in 1080p and save your video as above - Then use a couple of applications / utilities to get your footage into iMovie. Look through other threads and there are quite a few tips and tricks about getting the best quality from iMovie. In quick summary ......
Movist - A free application that can view mts files. You will need a fast Mac to play them at that sort of speed and resolution progressively
Convert your mts files with a couple of utilities that will allow your movies to be imported into iMovie. ClipWrap, VoltaicHD are inexpensive utilities that will take your mts files and rewrap them in a file format that iMovie understands. There is also a free Automater Utility called rewrap2m4v which I have used very successfully and I think it does much the same thing. Preserves the resolution and frame rate and effectively just renames it as m4v so that iMovie can import it.
I like iMovie 06 at 720p resolution, but this has a limited Frame Rate of 25fps, so effectively removing every other frame of your 50p footage. iMovie '09 / '11 will maintain resolution if keep your footage progressive throughout. This software also likes to work in 25fps but there is a software work-around to increase the frame rate to the original 50fps utilitising a utility called Plisteditpro.
So, as a final answer to your question, iMovie '11 won't accept your footage out of the box. But you can use a utility such as ClipWrap to repackage it as an acceptible movie format at full resolution and frame rate. You can use plistedit to change iM '09 (and presumably '11) to accept 50fps and then you should be able to edit (on a fast mac) your movies. My personal solution is to record at full 50p and save for the future, then rewrap the files and edit them in iMovie '06 at 720p25 where I am downgrading both resolution and frame rate, but they still look beautiful enough for my humble needs.
Good luck and great choice of camcorder.
