Are you talking about making a Trailer?
I think it uses the name of the owner of the User Account you're using.
You should be able to edit the name in the Outline for your Trialer.

Finding the text boxes on iMovie?

Heloo:)
Are there the text boxes on iMovie?
Thanks,
Peter

If you mean text in a frame which you can place anywhere then no. The workaround is to create a file with the desired text in another application and save it either:
as a .png file with the background set to transparent or as a .jpg file with a green background
Drag the file into the iMovie event and place it above the clip you want it to appear in. In the second case you then use the "green screen" function.

IMovie is not letting me drag and drop transitions, music, text boxes. Worked fine all along and now nothing. What happened?

iMovie has always let me "drag and drop" transitions, music, text boxes etc into my Project. This morning it is not allowing me to "drag and drop" anything. This is for a client and I am so frustrated. What happened to make it stop letting me "drag and drop"?

I have only dragged Titles to the project. When I did, it worked best not to drag and release onto the video strip (like with the old version) but just above the strip. When you drag and hover above the strip you get a little pointer to the starting point on the strip. Hope this helps.

IMovie text shadows missing

Using iMovie '11 (9.0.4), I'm adding subtitles to a video. The text drop shadow dissapears when I select a font other than what's initially in the text boxes or if I paste text in rather than typing it in. Without the shadow, my text completely disappears on light or white backgrounds. How do I turn the shadow effect on?

Also the originally clips are still in my iphoto and show in imovie, but it still doesn't link to my project. Please help!!
Thanks,

Pages 5 Where is text box linking and autoflow?

Pages 5 appears to be missing the ability to link text boxes and autoflow them. This is really important for the imposition (putting the printed pages in order) of small booklets.
Does anyone know if it is possible in Pages 5?

Many thanks Peter. I'll do that. Along with the old iMovie and iWeb.
It is infuriating when Apple replaces a good application - easy to use and very functional - with something that is clunky and lumpen and has fewer features, or discontinues it altogether.

Pages, import address to text box

I have a pages template with an text box for an address.
I use around 20 different addresses and have been copy and pasting or typing them in manually.
Is it possible to have a list of addresses somewhere so I can choose which one I need and insert it automatically?
Don't seem to be able to find a solution on here so don't know if to can even be done!
Thanks in advance...

I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
Disk Utility can verify my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
Good luck!

Expand Text Box? "Advanced" text options not hidden?

The title text box/editor is very small in the 10.2 update. It's just big enough for 2 lines of text. I find it fairly inconvenient to have it so small (I am referring to the text box in the inspector). I'm guessing there is no way to expand this to fit more lines of text in, but if anyone knows how that'd be sweet! Otherwise I'm just crossing my fingers it gets a quick update since I'm using it every day for work.
Also, the "advanced" tab always being collapsed in the basic text editing tools is annoying, too. I use this every time I make a title(which I'm making two videos a day, so it's a little more tedious now after the update). Personally, for a professional program I would consider the options in the "advanced" section to actually be basic and fairly necessary...based on how I use it, so maybe I'm not a normal case.
Nothing is broken, just less convenient...
Thanks y'all!

That is a wonderful idea if I could find where to do that (maybe another feedback will be to make finding the feedback area easier (: ). Where can I find the feedback area? Thanks for the quick reply as well!

Open and read from text file into a text box for Windows Store

I wish to open and read from a text file into a text box in C# for the Windows Store using VS Express 2012 for Windows 8.
Can anyone point me to sample code and tutorials specifically for Windows Store using C#.
Is it possible to add a Text file in Windows Store. This option only seems to be available in Visual C#.
Thanks
Wendel

This is a simple sample for Read/Load Text file from IsolateStorage and Read file from InstalledLocation (this folder only can be read)
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Windows.Storage;
using System.IO;
namespace TextFileDemo
public class TextFileHelper
async public static Task<bool> SaveTextFileToIsolateStorageAsync(string filename, string data)
byte[] fileBytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data);
StorageFolder local = Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder;
var file = await local.CreateFileAsync(filename, CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);
try
using (var s = await file.OpenStreamForWriteAsync())
s.Write(fileBytes, 0, fileBytes.Length);
return true;
catch
return false;
async public static Task<string> LoadTextFileFormIsolateStorageAsync(string filename)
StorageFolder local = Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder;
string returnvalue = string.Empty;
try
var file = await local.OpenStreamForReadAsync(filename);
using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(file))
returnvalue = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
catch (Exception ex)
// do somthing when exception
return returnvalue;
async public static Task<string> LoadTextFileFormInstalledLocationAsync(string filename)
StorageFolder local = Windows.ApplicationModel.Package.Current.InstalledLocation;
string returnvalue = string.Empty;
try
var file = await local.OpenStreamForReadAsync(filename);
using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(file))
returnvalue = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
catch (Exception ex)
// do somthing when exception
return returnvalue;
show how to use it as below
async private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
string txt =await TextFileHelper.LoadTextFileFormInstalledLocationAsync("TextFile1.txt");
Debug.WriteLine(txt);

Is there a way to create a link within a document that will pull text from the document and open it up in a separate text box within the document?

I am trying to link sections of an form within a PDF back to instructions within the same PDF document. Instead of having this jump back to the page within the document I would like for it to pull up the identified text within a separate pop-up text box on the same page where the form lives. Is this possible?

Hi gwebster,
Instead of linking back to the instructions page, may be you can use tool tips or comments so that the instructions can be seen besides the text.
Regards,
Rave

I am using the big date calendar template and when I submit it to apple for printing I lose the name of two months. These names are not text boxes. I see the names when I send it in but something happens during the transmission to apple. It was suggested

I am using the big date calendar template in iPhoto. I am on Lion 10.7.2, macbook air. The names of the months are on each calendar page but something happens when I send the data to Apple. The names are part of the template. They are not text boxes. I lose two names on the calendar after it is sent to Apple. Apple suggested I make a pdf file of my calendar before sending it in and check to make sure every name shows. I did this with a calendar I just sent in. The calendar was correct. All names of the months were showing. After sending the data two month names disappeard because when it arrived by mail, it was incorrect. Apple looked at my calendar via a pdf file and it was incorrect. This is second time this has happened. I called Apple and they had me delete several folders in the Library folder, some preferences and do a complete reinstall of iPhoto. I have not yet remade the defective calendar. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar. If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them. Contact Apple for a refund. Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

After choosing a blank template in PAGES, i am unable to type in the main body of the docs. I have to open a text box to type. Pls help

Hi all, need help here. I just face this problem today. When i click the pages icon and after choosing a blank template, i am unable to type anything in the document. All icons in the format bar at the top cannot be clicked (font, font size etc). I will have to open a text box in order to type it.
If i open an existing PAGES doc, duplicate and rename it, then i delete all existing text that i have written, only then i can type in at the doc.
To illustrate my problem, attached is a pic from my Macbook screen
Please help.

Maybe try turning on the grammar checker.

I use preview's annotate feature to take notes by making text boxes in a PDF file. When I open the notes up again to review, all the text boxes have been rotated 90 degrees. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

If I click the boxes twice they rotate back but this is very annoying and time consuming.

Just checking...still no fix for this? I upgraded to OSX 10.8.4 recently and started using Preview to annotate lecture notes, only to find text boxes rotated later on. Appears to be okay if I go back and click on all text boxes and save again.
Any new updates on this topic re: why this is occuring and how to permanently fix it?

Did you know how to link the text in two or more text boxes?

Did anyone know how to link the text in two or more text boxes in Pages 5.0? Thanks for your answer.
Qualcuno sa come collegare il testo in due o più caselle di testo nella versione 5.0 di Pages. Grazie per le vostre risposte.

It's just one of the many, many features that have been eliminated or changed. Leave feedback for the Pages team using the link in the Pages menu and review & rate the new versions in the Mac App Store.
If you previously had iWork '09, those apps are still in your Applications folder in a folder named iWork '09. You can continue to use them to get things done.

In iWork Pages 5.1, how do I eliminate "text" in the Text Box?

In iWork Pages 5.1, how do I eliminate the word "text" which appears in the Text Box, when I've used a color filler and no words?

Select the text and delete.
If you don't want text in the box, don't use a text box ie in Shapes there are various shapes. Select one without 'T'.
