IMovie in the new iLife 06' and video for iPod

Hi,
I was planning to upgrade to iLife 06' for the ability to take video thru iMovie and convert it to video for the iPod. Normally I would use Quicktime pro for this but my mac is not connected to the internet and it does not have USB 2.0. I am on limited funds here and I can't splurge to take it in to the shop and have a USB 2.0 card (plus a few other things) installed, Quicktime pro, plus iLife. I was wondering if anyone purchased iLife 06' and has had a chance to experiment with rendering down video for the iPod. If you have experimented with it, does it export directly to the iPod? or does it render to a file you can add to iTunes to download to your iPod that way?

Hi Ron,
I'm still using antiques hard-/software and can not afford such "stylish products" as a videoPod (well, I do own two iPods... my wife would kill me for No3...)
but as you can see in the link, "iPod video" is just a mp4 compressed file with some "special settings"...- special in meaning of, the iPod is able to playback... you can playback such compressed file with any Mac/Quicktime prepared PC....
BUT!
it is highly compressed and very small/resolution... for iPod that's fine, but for watching on computers, I would recommend some other settings/procedures...
by using the iLife suite, I don't know, wether the resulting files are "exportable"/in iTunes you normally can export any content... I guess (but I'm not sure...)

  • What is the best way to format Videos for ipod touch?

    What is the best way to format Videos for ipod touch? Used Quicktime Pro/ Export (iPhone setting). Videos aren't as crisp as downloaded Videos. Compressors /ipod video Setting also looks crapy (with bitrate med & High). What should I use?

    Visualhub is a transcoder with multiple input and output formats with specific setting for iPod,iPod touch. Costs around $19-used to work great but recently everything I convert suffers audio crash than closes out the player. Hopefully they will fix it.
    Elgato H.264 hardware transcoder is $99 dollars(USB stick that plugs in to Mac)-speeds up encoding of any file quicktime can handle, settings for apple tv, iphone/touch, ipod,Sony PSP. Worth the cost if you transcode a lot of video for the Touch or own an elgato HD tuner. Files work flawlessly and look great.
    Mpeg streamclip-free. Works great, has presets or can customize the output.

  • I've downloaded the 5.0 update and not all the new features are there.  Just the news stand, reminders and videos.  I double checked on the update and it says it's up to date.  What should I do now?

    I've downloaded the new 5.0 update and not all the new features are there.  Just the newsstand, reminders and videos icons plus icloud.  Everything else is the same as before.  What should I do now?  It says I have the latest update.  ???

    Hummmm, you might not be missing anything... From what I understand, really the only new visible add-on apps type programs are Newstand and Reminders. The Notification Center seems to be about how your info and alerts are pushed to your screen and you control that thru the phone settings>General>Notifications, the panel is accessed by swiping downward from the top of your screen. Weird I know, should be more obvious. Enjoy!
    Don't forget, you can now use the volume button on the side of your phone to take photos. I really like this!

  • HT4606 i put the new ios 5. and now my ipod touch can't open my wifi or bluetooth

    i put the new ios 5....  and now my ipod touch can't open my wifi or Bluetooth it is haper on gray like it no disposable

    How are you trying to accomplish these two tasks?
    The correct way is as follows:
    Camera zoom: pinch with your fingers like you do when viewing pictures.
    Camera button in lock screen: Double-tap on the home button while in lock screen
    If you are already doing it that way and it doesn't work, then maybe someone else here has another idea.

  • HT201412 i downloaded the new ios update and now my ipod is frozen. what do i do?

    Try connecting it to iTunes in recovery mode and restoring it. This article has instructions for placing the iPod Touch into recovery mode.

  • Can the new keyboard USB be used for iPod connection for charge & sync'ing?

    I have never had an iMac..yet.
    Goon buy the new one soon, I was going to get the wireless keyboard but it doesnt include any USB ports like the wired version so because the iMacs USB are put on the back (shouldnt they put on in easy reach on the front?)
    Can the iPod be plugged into the keyboards and charged and synced?

    Get yourself a [Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 4-Port for Macintosh|http://www.provantage.com/belkin-f5u233-apl~7BELU032.htm] to prevent having to reach around to plug/unplug your devices.
    I have my keyboard connected in one USB port.
    Then I have my printer connected into the second port.
    Then a 7 Port Belkin Hub connected in the thrid port.
    Then all my cords for iPod, camera's and other devices are connected to the Hub.
    Then there's no need to plug/unplug anything but, the device to it's cord and flash drives into that top port.

  • IPod Touch 64GB activated October 2013 - how do I get the free iLife, iPhoto and iMovie apps?

    I purchased (from an authorised seller - Dixons Duty Free, Heathrow) and activated an iPod Touch 64GB on 18th October 2013 (prior to the announcement of free iLife, iPhoto and iMovie apps but after the 1st Sepember 2013 date in their conditions). It had iOS6 preinstalled. I've updated to iOS7. How do I get the free iLife, iPhoto and iMovie apps? The App Store is trying to charge me for theese.

    Problem solved from information found in another thread....
    If your iOS device was activated for the first time after September 1, go to the App Storeon your iPod which should open to Featured. If not, tap on Featured at the lower left of the screen & scroll down to Collections & tap on New to the App Store? then scroll down to Apps Made by Apple & tap. You should now see the iWork & iLife apps as "FREE."

  • Will the new photos app and icloud photos library support all formats of pics and videos from my iphoto library?

    I will be migrating my whole 200gb iPhoto library 9.5.1 mavericks over to Yosemite iPhoto 9.6.1 and then migrate to the new photos app and hopefully to the icloud.photos online. Does this all support all of my formats such as AVI videos in my iPhoto library. I don't want to lose those through migration. 

    I have this 31% issue too - when I attempt to update my iPhoto library to the new Photo app.
    I have a few libraries - one on my mac, and two on a NAS. I access the NAS via wifi.
    The mac based library did update, but the two network albums have yet to be successfully migrated over to Photo.
    It's driving me insane!!!

  • We are getting ready to purchase the new iMac 27" and would like to know which is best for watching streaming video, the fusion drive or the more expensive flash drive only

    We are getting ready to purchase the new imac 27" and would like to know which is the best configuration for watching streaming video, the fusion drive or the more expensive flash drive.  We will have a fast fiberoptic internet connection.

    the harddisk speed mean nothing when it comes to streaming video from the internet
    even the fastests internet using fiberoptics is still much slower then the slowests harddisk you can buy

  • HT4623 I downloaded the new ios 6 and I like it but now I can barely see my videos. When I turn the Ipod to the side my album cover shows up and it won't show the vidoes. How can I fix this?

    How do u get rid of the album cover when u turn your Ipod to the side to watch vidoes. I downloaded the new ios 7 and now I can't watch my vidoes.

    Based on other posts, the misic videos no longer play in landscape mode. You get the album covers as u describe.

    I am an Aperture user and I am tired of managing my old iphoto library seperately. In order to use the new combined aperture/iphoto abilities i need a newer version of iphoto. Apple says that the new iphoto is free, however my iphoto (version 8.1.2) did not update. How do i update iphoto so that i can use the library with Aperture?

    iPhoto, iMovie and Garageband are free. However, you must be running Mavericks in order to download and use them. Mavericks is free also.  Therefore your Mac must be capable of running Mavericks:
    The following is from: Apple - Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mavericks.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    iWork is not as it's an upgrade and not an update. Upgrades for iWork have always had to be purchased. However, the previous iWork apps will work fine with Mavericks.

  • In IPhoto I changed movie dates after thumb nails were created in IMovie but the new dates are not showing up in IMovie.  Is there someway to refresh the IPhoto event in IMovie?

    Background:  I'm transferring file folders from a Visa laptop via an external hard drive to my IMac.  In the folders are photos and videos from different cameras.  SO I first tried to import to IMovie but it would not recognize any of the files.  So then I imported into IPhoto and both photos and videos were imported and I created events for each folder.  When I first opened IMovie I had to wait for it to create "thumb nails".  Then I could view the events in IMovie BUT the video clips are not together because they have vastly different dates and are mixed with videos from other events.  I looked at the dates and said I can fix that in IPhoto which i did but those new dates are not showing up in IMovie.    I think I need to somehow refresh the event data that Imovie is using but have not found how to do that in either IPhoto or IMovie. 
    I'm doing this on three events with about 100 photos and videos.  But I have many 1000s more to do so need to know how to either fix this or delete these events, reimport, change the dates, then open again in IMovie.   I'm sure that would work but I can't understand why changing the dates in IPhoto is not being reflected in IMovie.  
    Appreciate any tips or pointers.
    OBTW this is my first question as a first time Apple owner. 

    It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did. 
    Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
    I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!

    Once you've upgraded to Mavericks go to the App Store/Purchases and download those three apps again.  I'd do one at a time because the App Store is being swamped with requests.
