IMovie won't allow me access to my iTunes music

Hi
I am editing in iMovie '08 and I want to add music from iTunes. When I click on the "Music and Sound Effects" section I get the following:
Open iTunes 6.0 or later to populate this list
My list is blank although I have lots of music
I am running 10.5.8 along with iTunes 8.2 and Quicktime 7.6.2
Please can someone help?

  • For some reason I am unable to access my purchased itunes music from my icloud or from my computer.  I suddenly get this message: say that I the original location for the song cannot be found.

    For some reason I am unable to access my purchased itunes music from the purchased folder in the itunes store or in my icloud.  The descriptions of the songs I purchased are there, but when I attempt to play them it says that the original location of the song cannot be located.  This is so frustranting. How do I get my songs back??

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • My laptop Final Cut Studio won't allow me access.

    I have a fully licensed Final Cut Studio including an upgrade for a few years now. It's installed on my PC and Laptop. This morning for some reason the version on my laptop is asking for a serial number before allowing me access. But even when I enter it it rejects it as invalid! How do I access it?

    are you sure you're entering the correct serial number and entering it correctly?
    Is this an upgrade or a full install?  If an upgrade, it may be looking for the original serial number rather than the upgrade number.
    If I remember correctly (and I may not be) the serial numbers are in groups of three and each group is either numbers or letters not a mix.
    Also, you might want to do the normal troubleshooting steps like repairing permissions, running disk repair on all drives (particularly your startup drive which you'll have to do after booting from your os install disk or another bootable drive), run diskwarrior (if you have it) on your startup drive and deleting fcp preferences

  • Imovie 10.0.2 won't allow me access to slow motion or the other visual effects under modify. They are grayed out.

    I have worked successfully with earlier versions of Imovie for years.

    Create a project and drag your clip to the timeline. Then you are able to slow down the movie.

  • Is it possible to setup AirPort Express as Wireless Bridge but won't allow wifi access through it?

    What I want to do is connect a printer to the AirPort Express through it's ethernet and wirelessly bridge to my main router (AirPort Extreme). But is it possible to turn off the AirPort Express' wifi access? Meaning it's wifi is solely used for bridging to my main router and block off other devices access to it through it's wifi? The only solution I can think of is giving the AirPort Express a different name and password, but is there a better way of doing it?

    What I want to do is connect a printer to the AirPort Express through it's ethernet and wirelessly bridge to my main router
    That is possible, assuming that the AirPort Express will be located where it can receive a strong wireless signal.
    But is it possible to turn off the AirPort Express' wifi access? Meaning it's wifi is solely used for bridging to my main router and block off other devices access to it through it's wifi?
    Configure the AirPort Express to "join a wireless network".....not "extend a wireless network"..... and it will provide no additional wireless signal coverage.
    The only solution I can think of is giving the AirPort Express a different name and password,
    That won't work, since the AirPort Express must be configured to connect to the AirPort Extreme wireless network using the same name and same password as the main network.

  • Second account won't allow Safari access

    I created a second account on my Macbook, have parental controls on to limit, "adult material," however when i go onto that user name the safari shows up with a "?" and wont allow me to even access safari. I double checked to make sure I have allowed the user to use the internet. what am i doing wrong?

    From your Mac or iPad ??
    You can't access the App Store via Safari on a Mac. You can launch it from your Apple menu top left in your screen, or your Dock or from your Applications folder.
    If you are referring to your iPad, try resetting > 
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Then restart the iPad >    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Windows 7 won't allow me access to some of my files and folders

    I installed a new copy of Windows 7 Professional SP1 on a new PC several months ago. I then restored my documents from a backup made on my old XP system. Ever since installation, I have had problems with Windows denying me access to some of my files
    and folders. I have full administrative rights on the machine. The various problems I've had, and steps I've taken to resolve them are:
    1. Try to open a file and get a message telling me I need permission from Steve to open this file. I am Steve.
    2.Try to open a file and get a message telling me I don't have permission to open it, but click this button to get permanent permission. I click the button, but still don't have permission.
    3. I then started opening the security settings for individual files and setting myself to have full access, and as the owner. This worked for individual files.
    4. I then tried setting the same security settings for entire folders. This didn't work and didn't improve anything.
    5. I tried setting the security settings so that Administrators owned the files/folders (I am an administrator). This also didn't achieve anything.
    6. After several months and still getting these messages, I got sick of trying to overcome them and decided to apply these security settings to my entire C: drive. I set myself to have full access and to be the owner of the C: root directory and all sub-objects.
    7. I inserted my Windows installation disk and tried to run the System Repair. It told me that System Repair was not compatible with the version of Windows I was running! WTF???
    Not only did setting permissions for the entire C: drive not help me, it has made matters a WHOLE lot worse. I now don't have permission to open almost all my files/folders. Most applications I try to run (Word, Excel, etc.) either tell me they can't open
    a file or let me open and edit it, then tell me I don't have permission to save to that location. When I press the Send/Receive button in Outlook, it now tells me I don't have permission to perform that action. I've tried going back to a restore point before
    I made this change, but that didn't change anything either.
    This problem has been driving me insane for months and now my PC is almost completely unusable and I'm considering a disk format and re-install Windows. When I initially installed it, so many problems came up in the first few weeks that I'm very reluctant
    to go through this procedure again. I spent hours and hours trawling the web looking for solutions to things that didn't work.
    Does anyone have any good news for me? Because as far as I'm concerned, Windows 7 is so far a piece of garbage.

    Hi Steve1904,
    So you have use the backup and Restore to restore your files from Windows XP to Windows 7 directly?
    This should be considered not work.
    If you would like to transfer files between Windows XP and Windows 7, you need another tool called Windows Easy Transfer.
    See the article below if you would like to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7:
    Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7
    If possible, follow the steps there, then things should be OK.

  • Time Machine won't allow me access to i photo to reinstall deleted folders

    I have deleted a couple of events from i photo 09 and want to reinstall them from time machine. When I attempt this tiem machine tells me the action can't be completed because I do not have acess to i photo library 15-29-00. Just before I attempted this I could not open i photo until I updated my version and was told earlier versions would not be availble. Now what?

    Thanks Terence for viewing my distress call. 
    I went to Time Machine, located the day prior to the date on which I deleted the 'events' I wanted to restore, selected i photo library and clicked restore.  Does this help.
    I am still puzzled about he requirment to update the software before I could access i photo. When I declined and tried again to open i photo I got on the same merry go round.
    Thanks again

  • IMovie won't allow me to do ANYTHING.

    So, a couple of hours ago I was editing a video (which was taking over an hour to create) when I received messages every 20 seconds telling me how something could not import because it was having problems, even though at the moment, I was not importing anything nor editing. Then it said it had to force-quit to prevent anything in my project from being lost.
    My only option was to continue so I did so. I decided to restart my computer and check it again.
    I checked it 3 times after restarting and it would not let me: import, view my project (which probably doesn't exist anymore) or view any of my other projects when it said I had two but none showed on the screen.
    I waiting, restarted again, getting anxious. So I updated it (Update from January 23), in hopes of recovery.
    Hour later, still same issues. I have no clue what to do and i I can even USE iMovie ever again.
    ANYTHING would be helpful.
    Thank you

  • Third attempt: iMovie won't allow me to import a movie Project from my old iMovieHD. Solution?

    My old iMovieHD doesn't work anymore, so I downloaded the latest iMovie. But I can't download the film project I was working on in the old iMovieHD app. Has anyone experience with this problem?

    Hi
    I think a bit more explaining might be of interest: If not just skipp it.
    iMovie 1 to HD6 - is one program in evolution. HD6 has INTEL savy code - so it runns on modern Macs too.
    iMovie'08 (version 7.0.x) to iMovie'11 (version 9.0.x) - A totally different thing - WRONGLY NAMED as iMovie.
    Working in a totally different way = no connection back to iM 1 - 6
    iMovie'13 version 10.0.x - Have no idea what this can or can not do or if it is related to iM 08 - 11. May be.
    So best thing You can do is to repair the old iMovie (hopefully HD6)
    else You can retrieve the original material and re-do the movie in Video editor of choise iMovie'08 - 13 or FinalCut.

  • Firefox is saying it is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections and won't allow me access after months of using it. Uninstalling and reinstalling has had no effect. Help!

    Recently McAfee recommended I block 'roaming.dwm.exe' which I did. Could that have caused the problem? Since then I have swapped to AVG which found 3 Trojans and removed them, but I still cannot access Firefox. I have checked my Internet Connections settings and nothing is entered there.

    Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Connection
    Try selecting the "No Proxy" setting. If it doesn't work, select "Use System Settings". If this still doesn't solve the problem, leave the setting at "Use System Settings", then check your connection's settings (in Windows, not FF).

  • IPhoto says it's on a "locked disc" and won't allow any access except.....

    I have created four accounts on my Mac Book Pro 15". I have given all four administrator status.
    iPhoto works great on the first account/the owner account. But on all the other accounts, it says it is "on a locked disc" and there is "no access" to any of the other 3 accounts on my laptop.
    I have repaired all permissions and still "no access" persists.
    Any suggestions? I have no parental controls in place that I know of. I am 64 and alone, no one on this laptop but me. So what can I tweak and where, and how. Speak as tho to a five year old because the whole Mac language/word and initial definitions are all new to me within the past 2 months. I am learning a whole new language, as well as a whole new operating system.

    Hi Jene,
    That's weird. I wonder why they struck it out. It seems a quite accurate statement to me!
    You gave very clear and easily understandable instructions that are perfect!
    Except that I have already done that and more, and still only the first account on this laptop is able to gain any access at all to iPhoto.
    So now, I am opening each of the folders contained in the application and "getting info" on each of them in turn, and changing permissions for all (except the infamous 'other' who we know is "root". I'm leaving that as it is.).
    And I am also trying shifting the "owner" in each folder from the first user's name to "system".
    When I log back in under the second user name we'll see if that has made the desired difference!
    Thanks for your help, Jene!

  • IMovie won't allow me to adjust the speed of my clips

    The option to adjust speed is visible under the Modify tab, but the percentages are "grayed out" (Un-clickable)

    Please also contact the developer of the mobile user interface for your email provider.
    I could reproduce this with gmail, but in order to better understand, is it that you are unable to download these?
