IMovie is not showing all of my videos from iPhoto, can I rescan?

My wife and I have an iPhone 4 and 4S.  In addition to our camcorder, we use our phones to record video.  For some reason, some of our videos in iPhoto are not being shown in iMovie.  Most are, but some videos that are several months old are missing.  Is there a way to rescan iPhoto for these missing videos?  We normally view them in iMovie under the iPhoto section.
I am running the latest iLife programs and have Snow Leopard.
Thank you for your help if you can.
Matt

After calling Apple (they were no help and I was disappointed) I kept searching in the Apple support community and found the answer. 
To get iMovie '11 to show the iPhoto videos under the event library on the bottom left of iMovie, you simply have to empty your iPhoto trash.  Once the trash was emptied, I restarted iMovie and the problem was fixed after iMovie did a search and showed the thumbnails of the videos. 
Again, this info came from another person on the support community.  Hope this helps someone else.

  • New photo app does not import all of my photos from iphoto library

    I have just installed  10.10.3 on my Macbook and the new photo app does not import all of my photos from iphoto library. I have about 3200 photos in the library and only 2300 are presented for import. I only have 1 library so I didn't choose the wrong one. Any suggestions?

    Upon closer inspection it appears that the missing photos are in a folder called IPhoto Library.  This folder is greyed out when I choose the import folder.
    When I use 'show package contents' it reveals the missing photos (below).  Why is my iphoto library so scrambled!  Thanks for any insight.

  • IMovie won't upload/recognize certain iphone videos from iPhoto.

    I have a MacBook, Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I have recently started making some more movies to document my daughter's life in iMovie. I am having trouble getting certain movies from iPhoto to transfer to iMovie. When I opened iMovie it said it was making thumbnails, and it did...but not for all of the movies from my iPhone. I didn't realize this until I was almost done with my movie in iMovie. I restarted both iMovie and iPhoto to try to get the movies recognized. I have tried so many different things and nothing is working. All movies are .mov form. I am using the '08 version of both iMovie and iPhoto. Now I can't drag the movies anywhere, they are grey when I look them up in Finder. Any ideas?
    Here is a screenshot from one of my attempts to make it work.

    This is a forum for the MacBook Pro hardware.  I would suggest taking your question to the iMovie forum where you will get faster, and better, service. 

  • IMovie will not allow me to import photos from iPhoto

    the media button in imovie that suppose to let me import photos and music is not active and will not allow me to get anything, but if i check iphoto by itself it shows me everything i got. Please help i really need to get this project done by this week!
    Thanks In Advance

    You'll have to go this route:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • HT201317 if I accidentally delete a video from iPhoto, can I recover in photo stream or somewhere else?

    If I accidentially delete a vuideo from my iphone, can I recover it in photo stream or elsewhere on my iphone or icloud account?

    If the video was in your camera roll when you last backed up your phone, it would be contained in the backup.  Restoring the entire backup should recover the video.

  • SelectOneChoice not showing all values from database

    Hi!
    I have to put a list of values in my select one choice. When I do the query in database, all the values are selected. But, with the same query on JPQL, the select on choice do not show all values in database. Anyone can help me, please?
    P.S.: I am using SelectOneChoice with SelectItems, in JDeveloper 11g
    Code:
    <af:selectOneChoice id="selAction" value="#{row.idCmd}"
    unselectedLabel="&lt;Selecione>">
    <af:forEach var="alertTypeNode"
    items="#{bindings.actionFindAll.iteratorBinding.allRowsInRange}">

    In your page binding check the rangesize setting for the executable you use - set it to -1.

  • Deleted videos from iphoto but they are still showing up in the finder?

    I deleted all of my videos from iPhoto and moved them to an external hard drive because I wanted to free up some space on my MacBook Air.  The files are no longer visible in the iPhoto application, but for some reason, when I look at the storage space on my computer, it is still showing that I have 8GB of movies on my computer.  If I search in the Finder, it is showing that a lot of these videos that I deleted from iPhoto are still in a "Masters" folder in iPhoto.  I am confused, though, because if I open iPhoto, the videos are not in there.  I want these video files to be deleted for good - can I just go in to the "Masters" folder in the Finder and delete them there?  I've read not to delete anything from iPhoto in the Finder, though. So, getting very frustrated because I'm not sure why these files aren't fully deleted off my computer. Any suggestions?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • How do I export video from iPhoto to iMovie

    I don't see an obvious way to export video clips from iPhoto (downloaded from my camera into iPhoto),

    There is a section in iMovie that lets you directly get the videos from iPhoto:

  • I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library?

    I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library? I assumed that like  the videos in iPhoto, I would be able to access the videos in Aperture through iMovie. Come on Apple! I am starting to get frustrated with your products here. And this is saying a lot when I have been using and loving apple products for the last 4 years.

    Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
    I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.
    APPLE. What are you doing?

  • IMovie not importing videos from iPhoto

    I am trying to import videos from iPhoto into iMovie. It is not bringing in ( i.e. creating thumbnails for) anything after Dec 2010. The videos all show up in iPhoto and they were shot with an iPhone. Is there a date range set somewhere that I need to change. I can not even get them if I specifically try and import them one at a time through File-Import-Movies. When I try this method it lets me select the videos, but they still don't show up in my video thumbnails. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I open up iMovie and it then imports movies from iPhoto. The problem is it is missing several videos. When I select import video it imports those missing files, so I know it's not a file format issue... Anyone else seen this? Any suggestions on how to get ALL my videos into iMovie?
    iPhoto will import any file that can be played in the QT Player (i.e., that is "playback" compatible). On the other hand, iMovie '08 will only import files that it can edit -- i.e. that are "edit" compatible. (Would you really want to waste your time importing files only to find that you can't do anything with them once they are "in" the application?) Your solution is to convert non-edit compatible files to compression formats that are editable -- primarily DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, or H.264. You should also note that both audio and video content must be edit compatible. For instance, many AVI files contain M-JPEG video which can be edited along with ADPCM audio which cannot be edited and so such files will not import.

  • My Apple TV does not show all of the movies in my library.

    All are in the movies category, no home videos here.  It almost seems to be movies that I have removed from a device.  At least some of the ones not showing up were recently removed from my iPad.  Came back from a trip and removed some of the movies that I had watched, but then my wife wanted to see them so we tried to pull them up on the Apple TV, but no luck.  I am not 100% sure that they were showing up on the Apple TV before, but I know they have been watched on my iMac.  I know all about the miscategorization of others but that is not an issue here.  Any thoughts?  Does the Apple TV have a limit???  Is it better to put them into a playlist when I want to see them?  I have about 15 more to add and if still no luck I may reload iTunes and let it refind the library and see what happens.  Thanks in advance for any help!
    BTW my OS is iOS version 7.0.5, but that was not in the list.

    I have the entire original Star Trek series on the computer, all tested, watched and working fine.  They are all MPEG-4 video files, and I can watch them on multiple computers and TVs when pulling directly from my network.  They are labeled "Star Trek Episode 15 Shore Leave" and so on.  Before I went out of town I loaded episodes 1-12 onto my iPad to watch while traveling.  Again, they played fine.  When I returned I had only watched the first three, so when I resynced my iPad I removed those three (episodes 1-3) and put on some other movies.  Tonight when I went to watch them on the Apple TV I find that those three specific episodes are missing from the Apple TV list, so the ST episodes start with #4.  Just kind of weird.  These episodes are all the same version, done at the same time, the same way, no differences between them, even in size.  Must can't figure out what is keeping them off of the list but it seems to be more than just coincidence that the three I notice missing are ones that I just removed from my iPad.
    Also as to the iOS version you are correct, my typo, should be 10.7.5. 
    Thanks for the help and just to clarify I checked with one of my purchased movies as well as the manual ones and two do not show up, both again removed with the last sync.  But they are still in the library!  Can't figure it.

  • When I try to include a white and black photo in a iMovie the result is a black totaly black picture which does not show in the movie. Why? Can it be fixed?

    When I try to include a white and black photo in a iMovie the result is a black totaly black picture which does not show in the movie. Why? Can it be fixed?

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Other than that, what version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later try
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
