IMovie video project I made has no audio working after power failure

I have spent about a week stitching together family movies by ripping them to Apple tv format, then use a software program called MPEG streamclip to create a DV version which take about 24 gb a piece, I put 12 hours worth into iMovie which has taken a ton of space etc. So I created a project and am now about 1h 35 min in and this is getting small 3-5 clips of my son who is 7 months and my wife and myself b/c were going to England on Friday so I was created a nice movie for my new in laws and family I am meeting for the first time. So I had a saved file and iMovie was open and I had a power failure. I opened iMovie freaking out and then saw all the footage and the project still there so I was extremely thankful b/c of the 7 dvds I created due to space limitation once I imported I deleted the original (i have the original dvd but it takes about 6 hours to take from DVD to Apple TV format, then about 2 hours to export to DV and then another 1 hour to import into iMovie so each dvd took a full day for me due to work etc)
Anyway whats now happened is there is no audio on either the project or the original footage that has been imported, again about 12 hours of footage and a project thats 1 hr 35 mins. Whats strange is all other projects and imported video the sound and video works perfect. THis is the only one and of course its the most important one. ANY SUGGESTIONS WILL BE APPRECIATED.
If needed I will start over and do as much as I can but of course I am praying there is a simple solution.
Thanks.
newest iMovie, newest OSX etc if that helps

Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work!
First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
If that did'nt work, first run the Disk Repair as shown in Apple doc.#106214 before the next step. Then, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours is the 10.4.10 Combo update ( PPC, not for Intel systems). Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system.
If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good! Also, here is Apple doc.#88338 on getting FireWire to work.
Cheers!

When using ipad4, why do videos not play on Google? Audio works fine

WWhen using ipad,why do videos not play on Google? Audio still plays. I have reset the Google app and it will be ok for short time but then reverts back to not playing videos.

Hi Vernon70,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that an application you downloaded from the App Store, Google, is not functioning as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend following the troubleshooting steps outlined in the attached article.

How Do I Export a Video Project With 4-Channel Discreet Audio?

Is there a way to output 4-channel discreet audio (for playback to a broadcast video deck)? We want output channels 1&2 to be stereo and channels 3&4 to be mono. But I can only seem to get it to mix down to 2-channel stereo.
Anybody???

I renamed an iMovie '13 project in Finder, and now my work is erased?

I'm really new to the latest version of iMovie (I had previously been using iMovie HD, which I guess is from 2006?), and I'm trying to figure things out. I had worked for hours on a project today, but then realized I had named it incorrectly, so I tried to change the name after clicking on 'reveal in Finder.' After I changed its name, I reopened iMovie and it comes up with all the clips I had, but all the work I put into it on the "timeline" is gone! Did I screw up? Can I fix this?

In the middle of my project, I just went up to File -> Reveal in Finder. It brought up the Finder with what looks like a 'hidden' location of the file. Here are a couple of pictures that might help show what I did:

OMG HELP!   I somehow deleted an iMovie '11 project with over 16 hours of work on it.   Please tell me there is a way to recover my PROJECT!?!?!?

Please tell me there is a way to recover my PROJECT!?!?!?
I was trying to go to another library when I noticed a dupliacte file.   I "thought" I selected only that file and went to "Move project to trash".   When I tried to see my original Project I've been working on for over 16 hours... it was GONE!   It's not in my trash, not in the iMove-->Projects folder... Did I just hose myself?
Please help!   I have 40 kids waiting to see this movie.

No one except for you marked your other thread as solved, probably in error when you received the email notification that there was an answer. I changed that thread to normal so you can post there again.

DVD from Elements 3.0 has no audio on Cyberlink Power DVD

I've burnt a DVD from Elements 3.0 which seems to go okay but when I put the DVD back in to the drive and open Cyberlink Power DVD, it plays without audio.
What's the griff with that?
Chummy

As a test of what Steve wrote, go back to PE, and Burn to Folder. Point CyberLink Power DVD to that folder and play from there. Do you get Audio?
I'm with Steve in that PE does a good, DVD-spec AC3 Audio file, that *should* play fine. CyberLink Power DVD is a good software player.
If you are not getting Audio, first place I'd check was the Audio setup on my system and then Ctrl-c from within Power DVD. What are the settings under the Audio tab there?
Good luck,
Hunt

My drop down menus made in Fireworks wont work after I put them in Dreamweaver

I am trying to make a site for my work. And I made a drop down menu within Fireworks. I pasted the code into the place I wanted it to go on Dreamweaver, then I saved the page and went into Internet Explorer. I rolled over my buttons that were supposed to be drop downs and they only work if you refresh then roll over and once you take your mouse off of it, you'd have to refresh again to see the buttons. I have tried and tried to figure this out but I just cant seem to. PLEASE HELP!
JoLynn
Here is the link to my page
http://lakechelanmirror.bravehost.com/
The drop down menus are supposed to be the NEWS button and MIRROR BLOG button.
I THINK this is the code for the menu..
var mmOpenContainer = null;
var mmOpenMenus = null;
var mmHideMenuTimer = null;
function MM_menuStartTimeout(hideTimeout) {
mmHideMenuTimer = setTimeout("MM_menuHideMenus()", hideTimeout);
function MM_menuHideMenus() {
MM_menuResetTimeout();
if(mmOpenContainer) {
var c = document.getElementById(mmOpenContainer);
c.style.visibility = "inherit";
mmOpenContainer = null;
if( mmOpenMenus ) {
for(var i in mmOpenMenus) {
   var m = document.getElementById(mmOpenMenus[i]);
   m.style.visibility = "hidden";
mmOpenMenus = null;
function MM_menuHideSubmenus(menuName) {
if( mmOpenMenus ) {
var h = false;
var c = 0;
for(var i in mmOpenMenus) {
   if( h ) {
    var m = document.getElementById(mmOpenMenus[i]);
    m.style.visibility = "hidden";
   } else if( mmOpenMenus[i] == menuName ) {
    h = true;
   } else {
    c++;
mmOpenMenus.length = c+1;
function MM_menuOverMenuItem(menuName, subMenuSuffix) {
MM_menuResetTimeout();
MM_menuHideSubmenus(menuName);
if( subMenuSuffix ) {
var subMenuName = "" + menuName + "_" + subMenuSuffix;
MM_menuShowSubMenu(subMenuName);
function MM_menuShowSubMenu(subMenuName) {
MM_menuResetTimeout();
var e = document.getElementById(subMenuName);
e.style.visibility = "inherit";
if( !mmOpenMenus ) {
mmOpenMenus = new Array;
mmOpenMenus[mmOpenMenus.length] = "" + subMenuName;
function MM_menuResetTimeout() {
if (mmHideMenuTimer) clearTimeout(mmHideMenuTimer);
mmHideMenuTimer = null;
function MM_menuShowMenu(containName, menuName, xOffset, yOffset, triggerName) {
MM_menuHideMenus();
MM_menuResetTimeout();
MM_menuShowMenuContainer(containName, xOffset, yOffset, triggerName);
MM_menuShowSubMenu(menuName);
function MM_menuShowMenuContainer(containName, x, y, triggerName) {
var c = document.getElementById(containName);
var s = c.style;
s.visibility = "inherit";
mmOpenContainer = "" + containName;

Only half works in opera, menu doesn't stay visible long enough to click on it.
I'm also getting "<%@LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" CODEPAGE="65001"%>" at the top of every page?

How do i fix my home button it has completely stopped working after i dropped it and now its frozen on the apple screen?

You can try the steps recommended in the User Guide. If they don't work bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

IPhone 4's WIFI has been not working after upgraded to 6.1.3(10B329)

     My IPhone 4 was working fine with its WIFI when it is running in default IOS version, I believe it was 5.x.x version, however after I upgraded to 6.1.3(10B329) then WIFI got very aweired issues again and again.starting from then I never get my WIFI working again:
1. Sometimes I can connect to my home's network and keep alive for 1-2 minutes then WIFI will not work on IPone, my home's router is not working either, I need to restart my home's router manually;
2. I can connect to my office's network and keep alive 5-10 minutes then WIFI is not working, however my office router is not affected; however the following days then I can't connect WIFI to office's network any more.
3. I tried to connect to other public area's free network via WIFI, however never joined in.
     I called Apple's service centre couple of times they have no clues, they said they never met this problem before for WIFI not working after upgraded to IOS 6.1.3 and no suggestions from them at all, every time I called them they gave me the same suggestion, such as restore-re-install, check your own router etc, nothing help, however my friend bought a brand new IPhone 4 with default IOS version 6.1.3 which is working perfectly without any issues on its WIFI then I believe this is a completely software issue.
     I know this is a general issue for Apple users and I refuse to upgrade to higher version as I am not sure the higher version can fix this issue however I am pretty sure the newer version of IOS did bring a lot of new bugs, anyone can provide me any suggestions guys ? THANKS A LOTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Terrence

I have fixed this issue after upgraded my router's firmware finally, this is a completely compatibility issue between Apple and other third party manufactures, hopefully we can get compabitlity list for each future IOS version ahead of time which can potentially avoid such kind of embarrassing situations moving forward, thanks !

My safari has been stoped working after I had updated it to the latest version!what should I do?!

my saafari hasn't been working for 2 month:(

If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have) and it is misbehaving:
N.B. Never delete Safari, never run it under Rosetta, don't use proxy settings, and don't change the application's name or move it from the top level of the Applications Folder to a sub-folder.
(If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall. Alternatively you can download Safari directly:
Safari 4.1.3 for Tiger can be downloaded here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1069
Safari 5.0.6 for Leopard (and Snow Leopard) can be downloaded from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070
Make sure you download the correct version for your system.
Also, observe the recommended procedure for installing software: repair permissions and close all applications, install, then repair permissions again.)
Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very [i]first[/i] thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta and which was updated to v.3.1.2, and now Tiger uses Safari 4.1.3 and Leopard uses Safari 5.0.5, as does Snow Leopard albeit a different version. If these latest versions of Safari are not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
(Trying to revert to a previous version of Safari can have repercussions, as previous versions of Safari used a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, but if you really want to do this post back for instructions on the safe way to do so.)
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-ons that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet, and the dreaded CT Toolbar. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for the latest version of Safari on your current operating system.
You must also ensure that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates. These require a restart and a permission repair.
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
Hard Disk/Library/InputManagers
Home/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates and updates to Safari (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
Lastly, the Safari updates require a restart of your Mac, and sometimes even a double restart is required.

Why has flashplayer stopped working after last apple update?

This is very frustrating. I have done everything suggested, uninstall, re-install, empty cache, restart computer, reset safari and still the flashplayer will not work! I had no problem with the flashplayer before the last Apple update and these 'glitches' are begining to make me question Apple!

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Steps to add music from a CD to an iMovie 09 project

Hello all.
I have made an iMovie video project using the music from iTunes. (most of the iTunes library music was ripped from a CD, others I purchased from iTunes) Other posts have had the same syncing problems when iTunes music is used. (the video and audio are out of sync about 5 min. into the project when viewed in iDVD or in QuickTime.)
Many of you suggest using the music from the original CD instead of using my iTunes music. The PROBLEM; the information I've gotten to use CD music in iMovie 09 seems to be for another version.
The instructions basically say to; ( Insert CD, then in iMovie click on the MEDIA BUTTON, and select AUDIO. Choose iTunes library or CD from the POP UP MENU. Select the track from the list in Audio Pane. Then click "PLACE AT PLAYHEAD.")
Now all of this seems simple enough except there is NO MEDIA BUTTON OR AUDIO BUTTON. iMovie help doesn't help. Maybe one of you very bright people out there has actually done this in iMovie 09 (version 8.0.6)
Also, I called Apple Support and they told me to use iTunes music, then share the project to my desktop. Open the movie on my desktop and review it with QuickTime. I did this, But the video had THE SAME SYNCING ISSUES. Please, Please, can someone out there help me????

You cannot unless you use another computer to import it, then copy to a flash drive or similar.

How do I move a video project from Encore to AIR via Flash Builder?

I've got a rather complex video project with lots of submenus (that works as a DVD - so it is "debugged") that I need to be able to export from Encore into an app to upload on the iTunes store and Android Market. So far, I've managed to export the project via Encore's Flash output and test the results using a web browser (it works). Everything got saved in a new folder structure with an index.html file pointing to the flashdvd.swf file pointing to the AuthoredContent.xml file that actually holds all the information on the file structure (there are 99 files in the Sources subfolder) and uses the default generated Theme.xml file.
What I need to do is to somehow import all this into Flash Builder as a project so it can become the source for the various "app" platforms. My questions are:
1. I've got Flash Builder 4.5 - do I need to upgrade to 4.7 in order to import the project or can this be done in 4.5?
2. Is there some intermediate step that I'm missing?
3. Will Flash Builder be able to repackage all these files into the file specs required by each target platform (I'm assuming it will - is that a valid assumption)?
And moving downstream a bit...
4. Since this is a video based project with over 200 megabytes of F4V content, how will the content arrive on the end user device? Will it have to be streamed or can it be downloaded? - this is a big issue should the app become popular and we be forced to maintain a streaming server somewhere. What about server sizing in such an event? For example: is there a way to estimate how much bandwidth is required per 1,000 instances?

Oh, no i think i clicked Solved but it's not at all solved and i don'tt see a way to reverse it and clicked unsolved.
I'v tried reading the Manuals but still don't see the solution.
I think I've misworded my question. Perhaps i shall have to start a new question.
What i want to know is very basic.
How do i take a video i see on either youTube or another side and put it either on my iPod (i guess via iTunes) or put it into a document or an email??
Do i copy some link? Copy what exactly? Do i click and drag something?
I think if i knew how to get a video to iTunes I could be able to sync it.
But i don't know the first thing, how to get a video onto iTunes, or email, or a document.
Thank you both.
