IMovie project photos not updating

I'm using iMovie11 with photos from my Aperture library. I use the media browser to add photos to my iMovie project. Can anyone tell me what iMovie's expected behavior should be after I'd done the following:
1. Created an iMovie project and added photos from an Aperture album via the media browser.
2. Did some editing of said photos in Aperture. Aperture prefs set to "Always" share previews with iLife and iWork.
3. When the same Aperture album is viewed in the iMovie media browser, all of the green checkmarks next to the photos I had added to my iMovie project are gone (though the photos are still in the iMovie project).
4. None of the photos in my iMovie project show my new edits.
Is this how things should work? Does this mean that I have to delete and re-add any and all photos I edit? They don't update after they've been included in an iMovie project? In this specific case, that means over 200 photos with accompanying audio clips.
Please confirm, and thank you in advance.

With iMovie 09, you would have to delete and re-add after you did further editing of photos in Aperture or iPhoto. I assume (but have not confirmed) that it works the same way in iMovie 11.
iMovie will find the photo at the path in Aperture (or iPhoto) with all current edits. It will "capture" it in a format suitable for video (e.g. 1920x1080), and it is available to the iMovie Project for you to do further color correction in iMovie. It will not go back and check for changes.
In general, your workflow for the photo should be complete in Aperture or iPhoto or Photoshop before dragging into an iMovie Project.

  • Photo not updating

    Hi,
    The Lync Server 2013 installed and configured in our environment.
    We have imported photos to all users. All users can view the photo but some of the users couldn't view photo and other users photos.

  • Aperture project photos not showing up in iWeb

    Hi, I posted this in the iWeb board as well, but have gotten no response.
    I use iWeb to create a website based around my photography and a blog I update periodically. I have been using this combination for at least two years now with no problems. By the way, the OS is SL 10.6.2, the Aperture version is 2.1.4, I use iLife '09 and all current patches and updates for each of the above is current according to Software Update.
    The problem I am experiencing is with the Media Browser in iWeb. For one project only, when I click on the project in the Media Browser, no photos display in the lower half of the browser. The project in question is a new one, but other newer projects are not exhibiting this behavior. For all other projects, albums, smart albums, etc. photos appear when the project/album button is clicked. I have deleted the plist file for iWeb, restarted iWeb and Aperture, rebooted the machine (iMac Core Duo 24" late 2007), and tried every other combination I can think of.
    Does anyone have any idea of why this behavior is occurring and what I can do to remedy it? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
    Rick

    Have you tried regenerating the previews for that Project? Go to the project, select all the images then choose Images >> Delete Previews followed by Images >> Update Previews.
    Deleting the previews first isn't strictly necessary, but it's good to start with a clean slate.

  • Contact photo not updating widget

    Hello...heres the short version:
    I have a widget of a contact...and my contacts are sync'ing with Facebook...When my contact updates their photo on Facebook; my Contact App updates; but my widget does not.
    Heres the longer version:
    Okay I know there are two ways to create a widget/contact.  For instance....lets say you have a Contact named John Smith...lets say you talk to him more than anyone so you want a Fast Shortcut....and John Smith has a full fledged Facebook Profile.  John Smith has his name, phone numbers, address, and more.  So you want a quick and easy way to get access to John Smith; right?
    Theres two ways to create this shortcut on one of your homescreens....The first option I'm sure everyone will do is to hold down on part of your screen and choose 'add widget'...as you scroll thru you will come across a 'Contact' widget...its a 1x1 size...which is the size of any app on your homescreen...so you click it and drag it to a space on your homescreen.  Next it will bring up your full conact list...here you will scroll down and select John Smith.  John Smith now appears on your homescreen pages.  Click the "icon" and you have quick access to Name/Phone Numbers/Address/Facebook/and Maybe More
    Now lets say John Smith updates his photo on Facebook, you know this cause you just launched Facebook an hour ago....so you go into your Contact List...and you're like "hmmm no updated photo"...so you go into your Settings>Accounts>Facebook>And you see the last time it sync'd with your phone...which was 1 day ago...you're thinking "okay no biggie theres a 'sync now' option"  Voila.....Your Contact App now reflects his updated photo....so you back out of your Contacts or you Click your Home Button and you see that..........yep....his photo didnt update.  So you remove the battery...you reboot device....,and no go.
    Now you could just remove this shortcut and re add it but what if you were accustomed to previous cell phones that automatically updated the photo?  This is where I am landing...I'm here asking if the Galaxy S4 has this feature?
    Ahhh dont forget theres another option to go by......
    So remember I said the common way of adding the shortcut was going thru Widgets?  Well theres 1 more way of adding a contact to your home screen....and that is...going into your contacts...find the one you want...John Smith...Hold down on the screen til a menu appears and if you scroll to bottom (Galaxy S4) theres an option that says "Add shortcut to Home Screen".  And voila...theres John Smith on your homescreen...His photo is the Icon/App that again you have easy/quick access to all the numbers he published...his Map (Address) and a quick link to Facebook + others if he has it....
    But again when John Smith updates his Facebook Profile pic....and you know cause you just exited it...You re sync' under Settings and again while it reflected on your Contact App...it still didnt affect your Shortcut!
    So my previous Cell phone was a Motorola Droid Razr (1st Edition)....my droid razr did have that feature...when someone changed their profile pic it would reflect the widget too.
    The Galaxy S4 (for me) doesnt do that....my Contact Photo still changes when I manually perform a Sync and it shows up in the Contact App, but it doenst reflect the Widget....is this natural for Samsung?  Or is my Device not working correctly?
    Thanks

    Heres an update:
    Okay whether you use the Widget to add a contact to your homescreen
    Or you go into contacts; find your contact and hold down to select menu that says "add shortcut"
    Either way....if they have a photo it will product a photo icon on your homescreen.
    Everyone knows this....however what I did find out is that when a person has a Facebook linked with that contact and they update a photo; when you click that Shortcut their updated photo will appear in that small window of theirs...however it wont update your shortcut you created....does that make sense?
    As to why? I dont know

  • IDVD '06 Sees Old iMovie Projects But Not New Ones

    I have found that iDVD '06 will let you do something really neat, that ended up in me discovering something really dumb.
    First, if you want to add a folder with media in it to the Media section of iDVD, you can literally just drag/drop the folder there and POOF it shows up and your media shows up.
    BUT... Ugh.
    iDVD '06 does NOT see iMovie '06 project files. So, if you have a folder with iMovie '05 projects in it and iMovie '06 projects in it, and you drag that folder into the "Media" section of iLife '06, the '05 projects show and the '06 projects don't.
    And this all came up because of another issues in iMovie '06 (posted about over here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=421159&tstart=0 ) in which iMovie '06 doesn't actually delete video in cropped videos, discovered because I no longer can see video snips of a current iMovie project in iDVD (I used to see just enough to use in the menus, which was fine).
    So, this sounds really weird to me. iDVD '06 can't see iMovie '06 project files? That can't be right, can it?

    Never resolved but marking as answered to clean up my profile and login.

  • Lync photo not updated even AD Profile is already updated

    Hi Gurus,
    I have similar issues with others in the forum which photo in lync client is not updated even though the its already changed in Active Directory. The others said we have to do this step :
    1. Run Update-csaddressbook
    2. Delete cache files ( ex : [email protected] )
    I did those steps but still have no luck on the issues. Is there anyone have this experience or have any solutions for this issues. Thank you very much.
    Regards,
    Maliq

    I agree with Johan...
    What Exchange server are you on?
    First run Update-CsUserDatabase - this sync FE database with AD info
    Running with -verbose will post that replication will take place in 5 minutes..
    Then run Update-CSAddressbook - This update the FE address book with the Info from its own Database
    Once again this will tell you it will begin replicating in 5 minutes...
    After 10 minutes you should be able to clear the cached files from the client and restart lync ...
    Here's a script a created to clear teh cached files on a client system, this should be run as teh standard user, as it grabs teh logge don users creds and clears the directory according to the logged on user..
    Save as a batch, on a network share accessible by everyone and run away safe time!
    @echo off
    :Start
    echo.
    rem ###### Check if Lync is running, exit if it is... #####
    tasklist /fi "IMAGENAME eq lync.exe" | find "lync.exe" >nul
    If %errorlevel%==0 goto LyncIsRunningError
    rem ###### Grab logged on user info, and remove Lync cache files, All of them! ######
    for /f "tokens=2 delims=\" %%a in ('wmic computersystem get username ^| findstr /v "UserName"') do @set username=%%a
    set uname=%username: =%
    If Exist "C:\Users\%uname%\appdata\local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\" rmdir "C:\Users\%uname%\appdata\local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\" /S /Q
    echo Clearing Lync 2013 Address Books... Done!
    echo.
    echo Sign back into Lync 2013 to download the current address book.
    goto End
    :LyncIsRunningError
    echo ERROR: Lync found to be running, closing all instances!
    taskkill /f /im lync.exe
    taskkill /f /im UCMapi.exe
    echo Done, waiting 5 seconds and trying again.
    timeout 5
    echo.
    goto Start
    :End
    And do you have any idea of difficult it is to place a cmd output into a variable in BATCH scripting?! redic!
    No it will say it can't remove a certain folder in the cached location if the user has outlook running... i didn't no script to close outlook for it doesn't get effect, or it still works either way..
    I'm also going to add that you go onto the FE server and check the attribute on user contactcard to ensure that the DisplayADPhoto attribute is set to True..
    Logon onto FE server - open powershell - and user the export-csuserdata command with the -legacy option to export as an xml file and then open the xml in IE and search for that attribute...

  • IMovie Project will not open

    i have a project i have been working of for weeks.  today i went to open the project in iMovie and the sould would not play, the red indicator line stayed stationary and nothing happened.  when i went to the Event Library, i could see the clips and the indicators that they had been imported.  When i attempted to play the clips in the event library, they would play but without sound.
    I quite iMove and tried to repair permissions, now the project refuses to open.  the issues i mentioned in the event library remain unchanged, but the project refuses to even open.
    i moved all files to an external HD and reopened iMovie.  iMove identified only one project, but can't tell which one but it would open play.  the Event Library had two files with the movie clips, but only one had the identifers of an import into a project.  Both of the event libraries would now play the clips with sound. 
    I quite iMovie and ejected the external HD then relunched iMovie.  the project that remained still would now not open or play and the sounds and the event library clips had no sound.  i could see the green indicators of sound in the meter but none came out of the speakers.....this seem to be the only project effected and it had just over 2 hours of movie time in it.
    I am running iMovie 11 (version 9.09 build 17950) on a macbook pro running OSX 10.8.3, 2.2 Ghz Intel Cor I7, 4GB RAM

    this was the post i found, i wish i could give this guy the credit on his post, so cut and paste of it was the next best thing.    As you can see from the post date, nearly 3 years later and the issue still exsists.  I don't think it effects many of us, but is worth knowing.

    Re: Help - iMovie doesn't react anymore 
    Jun 13, 2010 2:32 AM (in response to John Cogdell)
    I had a heck of a time today trying to figure this out, spent about 12 hours. This string helped me the most. I had to go a few steps further to get a total fix for iMovie and my project and thought this might be useful for others who have similar problems w/ iMovie. I have been working on a particularly large project with many, many clips in one Event Folder. Today all of the sudden the sound and playback wouldn't respond when I hit the space bar, I couldn't view anything at all in the window viewer, eventually iMovie wouldn't open at all, and all I would get is the spinning beach ball. Had to force quit a hundred times. What worked for me was: 1. Freed up some space on my hard drive by pulling other events (which were not tied to any completed movies) to external HD. This may not have anything to do w/ the fix, but I ain't leavin it out after what I went through today.
    2. With imovie closed, found where the Event Folder and associated Project I have been working on were saved on the hard drive...in my case I had them saved on the ext. HD. I highlighted the Event Folder and Project File separately, right clicked on each and moved them to trash. Remember-you are not deleting them by moving them to trash, just do NOT hit "Empty Trash". (If you drag somewhere else other than trash it will only create a copy and can take longer)
    3. Followed John's advice above by going to User Library>Preferences folder and dragging the files named com.Apple.iMovie7.plist, and com.Apple.iMovie8.plist to my desktop. For me at this point I was able to open iMovie and navigate through my other events and projects. Space bar worked for sound and playback, viewer worked, iMovie running pretty efficiently.
    4. I then went into my Trash folder, right clicked on the Events Folder and Project File separately and selected "Put Back" which places them right back in former location. I closed iMovie and re-opened.
    What I found is that iMovie was not responding well because I had too many clips in one event folder. And with those same files now back in iMovie it will not take long for it to start acting funky. So I broke the event into 3 folders. While in iMovie I created 3 empty Event folders by clicking on File/new event (you might just need 2). I titled them Sports 1, Sports 2, Sports 3. Even though I still couldn't play or hear the Event clips/ project clips for this project, I was able to highlight approx 1/3 of the EVENT clips (not Project clips) by holding down the shift key and pointing the arrow/cursor across the appropriate clips. With the Sports Project back in iMovie, your Event folder should still show the green and orange highlights for your "favorite" and "imported" clips and should allow you to copy only those clips to the new, empty EVENT folders. Once I had highlighted and dragged the Event clips across 3 new event folders I was back to normal...can play, view, and hear all Event Clips and the Project clips. Best of all, I didn't have to re-start my project - of which I have spent a lot more than 12 hours on.  I hope this helps someone. Thanks to all on this string for pointing me in the right direction.  Shawn

  • Failed to burn iMovie project, iDVD  "not responding"

    A preemptive thanks for your time.
    I am trying to burn iMovie projects through iDVD. I have done this successfully in the past. What happens now is after going through many of the steps up through Encoding Video, the process gets stuck when the status window says "Encoding Audio". No error message occurs or anything like that, the burn wheel stops spinning, and the "multicolored wheel of computer confusion" pops up. Needless to say this means that I am even more confused than the computer and examining the iDVD icon in the dock reveals that it is "not responding."
    This same problem happens with two similar projects (one of which was burned successfully in the past.) I am using Sony DVD-R disks. The projects are the typical size for about 50 minutes of edited iMovie project (15GB).
    HELP!

    As Rich says:
    This question is frequently asked!
    iDVD is probably not 'hanging'. Disregard any messages that iDVD is not responding. It is. Do not force quit.
    Encoding audio is the slowest part of rendering, and can take many hours. Great patience, even an intermittent alternative hobby, is called for.
    Make sure no other application is running, make sure you have not set the hard disk to go to sleep and that the screen saver will not come on. Leave it overnight, or have a 36 hole game of golf.
    Sooner or later iDVD will finish!
    (The current record mentioned here for encoding a DVD with lots of added audio etc is 47 hours!)

  • HT5958 Existing projects will not update and are not available for Final Cut Pro 10.1.1?

    I have updated to Final Cut 10.1.1 but existing projects from previous version will not update and are not available.  Have tried to re-install Final Cut as well as bring the projects to another computer which has the update, but they still will not update.  Has anyone else encountered this problem and is there anyone who can assist?

    In the Finder take a look at the path where your old projects and events are stored. They should be in Final Cut Projects and Final Cut Events folders respectively. Those folders need to be in Users/user/Movies on the boot drive and/or at the root level of other drives for FCPX to see them.
    If that's indeed the case, then you should be able to get them updated ny using the Update Projects and Events command form the File menu and then clicking on Locate.

  • Photo Not Updating for Podcast

    I have a minor issue with the Podcast app from iOS 5.1.1 thru 6.1.
    The artwork for the podcasts are not updating in the app.  I listen to a lot of music podcasts and on iTunes I see the updated artwork every week.  When I sync my iPhone 5 I will see it say Updating cover for episode ### but when I play that episode podcast it will have the artwork for an older episode.  Usually for an episode that I have already deleted.
    Not a huge crisis but it is annoying.  Thanks.

    The feed you are checking is at
    http://www.calvarygreenmeadow.com/podcasts/ccgreen-rss.xml
    and though the server is being slow to respond it can be subscribed to in iTunes and shows your recent episodes as expected.
    However, iTunes is looking for a feed at
    http://www.calvarygreenmeadow.com/~calvaryg/podcasts/ccgreen-rss.xml
    There is no file at this address. This means that since 14 November last you have been updating the wrong feed.
    You need to replace the feed at this URL. Once done, you can redirect iTunes to your newer feed if you want, following the process detailed here:

  • IMovie Project will not accept more data (music)

    I am having trouble adding data (background music from iMovie 9.0.4) into a large project of HD football video clips (53 minutes). No errors appear, it just gets very slow. I have a Macbook Pro with 8gb Ram. How do I add music to the whole Project?

    The Virb can produce other formats too, but I used 1080p 30fps. Need to test with other formats. However, now as I know it is not a problem of the new mobile imovie version, this is Okay for me because I never ever would expect that a free software will cope with all video formats ;-). But I thought it worked before the update and now it doesn't. Seems this was a mistake, most likely I never used a virb video with mobile imovie before. On the Mac imovie works fine with virb files.
    I currently use the photo app and mediathek simply to synchronize the photos to my devices iPhone, ipad and Mac. So all pictures and videos are on all devices. Hope apple will somehow allow to select which videos/pictures to sync, because after some time it will blow my storage at iPhone and iPad and there is no serious reason to sync all photos/videos.

  • 10.0.9 to 10.11 update issues - re: project files not updating

    #1 - I understand the function of libraries/events/projects in the 10.1+ version of Final Cut X, so this is not a case of not being able to identify projects contained within an event.
    FCPX simply refuses to update projects created in an older version (which is unfortunate).
    Events are imported without issue.  
    Is there some type of workaround?  I am just getting an error that quits cancels the update process without giving me reason.
    40 minutes of searching through google lead me to posing this question.
    Thanks

    Solved the issue:
    I had multiple folders/subfolders which contained all of my old projects (this hierarchy was created through pre 10.1 file system organization).  the point is I just moved all of the project folders to the "Final Cut Projects" folder at the root of the drive and all was fine.
