IMovie won't let me add more music

I'm 17 minutes into my project. Now I the music I place cuts off after 23 secs. I drag the entire song over my pics, but the music stops abruptly after 23 secs, I want it to play for 1:30 minutes. I can't extend using clip trimmer, the clip just reverts to the front of the song, even when I drag it to the very end, it just bounces back. When I try dragging the song in the project it just stops and won't budge.
I'm also having problems placing pictures, after the 17 minute mark, it takes a long time for pictures to "sit" in the project library, and they get placed between pics where I don't want them...and won't let me drag them to the position where I want them. Is there a time limit for each project? Why are these issues coming up now, when I had no problem throughout the project?

Drag the song to the frame of video where you want it to start, and drop it on that frame of video.
Good tutorial here.

  • IMovie 08 won't let me add more to project

    I was working on my project and after adding some pictures and a few video clips, any time I try to add another clip/picture, it won't let me. I've just been clicking and dragging the pictures from my desktop and importing my videos from iTunes. It let's me select the video/picture, but when I go to drag it in the media box for the iMovie, it doesn't stay. Is there a limit on videos that maybe I reached?? Thanks so much! =]

    all the "untitled" additional calendars appeared the next time I opened iCal.

  • Itunes won't let me add more covers

    hallo all, a quick hallo as its my first visit here
    I've just got a ipod nano 3rd generation, had one **** of a time getting it working and synchronising, seems to only work with itunes after I charge it up completely
    I've one problem I can't get around, I was adding covers to the albums, I'm using itunes in french so I might be out on the translation, but basically I was using the "get info", going to the "artwork" tab and "adding" art, now the artwork tab isn't there anymore, have I passed a limit to the amount of covers you can have, I wouldn't of thought so, but I can't add art to any more of the albums now,
    thanks in advance for all intelligent responses

    no one?

  • Help! i'm trying to add multiple titles to my movie,but imovie won't let me

    i'm trying to use titles to add supers to my mini commercial. this is what i've done so far: imported video. added sound effects. added a product photo at end of clip. added a title over first four seconds of clip. now, i want to add additional titles at intervals throughout the 22 second film. it won't let me. am i doing something wrong?

    I had the same problem, cos sometimes imovie won't let you add more titles when you try to take them straight from the title menu. I happened to me mostly when the clip itself is quite short. While imovie won't let you overlay several titles, you surely can have several titles, one after the other, in your project. To do this, I used a little trick: Add some small clip to the end of your project. Doesn't matter what, you're gonna delete it again anyway. You can then add another title to this additional clip. Then you just drag this title from there to your actual clip and place it where you want it. And then you do the next one(s) the same way until you have all your titles where you want them. At the end you just delete the "helping" clip again. It might be a bit complicated way of doing things, but it worked for me.

  • Why can't I add more music to my Garageband Project?

    Hey, I'm having difficulty adding more sounds and music to a very important Garageband project, but I've reached 3:35 in total time and I can't seem to add any more music?

    Why not try doing a "Save As" to a new file, and see if the new file lets you add more music.

    Don't drag them, import them from Media.

  • ITunes 11 won't let me add music to my iPhone manually w/out wiping out everything else

    I want to add my own personal movies and/or add more music that I already OWN (don't want to "purchase" from iTunes nor need to) to my iPhone 4s without wiping out everything I already have on my phone. That seems to be the new problem with 11. I went to put a movie on my phone yesterday and checked the "manually manage" box and it still asked me if I was sure I wanted to do this cuz it would remove all my music and my tones and everything else. Why would I want to do that? I want to keep what I have. I have a solid song play list I like a lot and I have a lot of ring tones already set too.
    Has anybody figured out a way to do this? Add to your device without wiping out what you already have?

    It wants to erase your iPhone because you are not syncing it to the same library.
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    iCloud only stores a copy of your non-iTunes purchases if you subscribe to Match. It still isn't the best way to get your music to a new computer.  That's
    (if you use iTunes' default preferences settings):  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.

  • Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. how do i fix the problem

    Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. It use to allow me to open multiple windows before but for no apparent reason it stopped. I uninstalled it and re-installed but I'm having the same problem. How do I fix the problem
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == several days ago

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • ITunes 11.1 won't let me manually transfer music from my library to my iPod.

    I just updated my iTunes to Version 11.1 and installed iOS 7 onto my iPod Touch.  I'm trying to manually add all of the music from my library onto my iPod but it won't let me.
    - Under the "Summary" tab I have the option "Manually Manage Music & Videos" checked off
    - Under the "Music" tab I DO NOT have the option checked off that says "Sync Music"
    - Before I upgraded to iOS 7 I deleted all of my music from my iPod and so I have full capacity of storage left on my device
    - iTunes says that I have 52.71 GB Free out of 64 GB
    - When I try and move any of the music from my library onto my device a red x is highlighted and it won't let me add anything to my device
    - I have restarted my computer
    - I have re-started my iPod Touch several times
    - I tried un-installing iTunes 11.1 and then re-installing it on my PC
    - My PC is running Windows 7 64Bit
    I've never had this problem before so I don't understand what is wrong

    If you had the same problem as me with my iphone 5, then follow these instructions and syncing new music should work.
    Whilst in itunes 11.1 click the icon in the top left corner, it gives you options, click 'Add file to library' (ctrl+o) and add the music from your computer to the itunes library.
    Once you see the music in your itunes library, drag the songs from your library to the right and an iphone/ipod section should appear and you drop it into your ipod.
    Once this is done, click the ipod icon which should be on the right (near the top area) and once on the ipod options, go down and press sync. All the music that you added will appear on your ipod.
    Hope this helped, good luck.

  • After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group.  When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category.

    After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group.  When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category. A message pops up that says: "You can't add events or to do items to a calendar group. Select an individual calendar in the calendar list, then create your events or to do items." Any help here would be greatly appreciated! I would like to either retrieve the old information or find a way to add the category back in to start over. Thanks in advance!

  • HT1535 It doesn't give me options to add more music or shows to my device.

    I am trying to add more music to my daughter's ipad.  I have it under manually manage music and videos, but when I click on music or video it gives me no options.  It is grayed out and the only thing I can check is the sync music at the top and that says it will delete everything on the ipad.
    What's wrong?

    They are the same folder - pictures I moved from my computer to the iphone but I tried the unsync thru itunes and it didn't work.  I also tried to just access the folders from libraries file on the computer thru the phone and they aren't showing up there either.
    It's almost like it doesn't exist on the phone - won't even give me the option to just delete the folders from the phone or itunes....

  • I want to add more music to my I Pad from my computer (I Tunes) I have been told if I do this all the stored music will be deleted Is this correct as the music on I pad is not backed up  kM

    I want to add more music to my I Pad from computer (I Tunes)
    I have been told that if I do I will lose all the current music on I Pad
    As this has not been backed up I do not wish to lose the I Pad music.
    But is this correct if it is how do I add music to I Pad without losing
    the current lists
    Any help appreciated

    If its never been synced to this particular computer then by default that is true.
    iTunes will only let you sync to one library at a time, if you get this warning message, follow this:

  • IMovie Won't Let Me Export?

    Hello!
    My iMovie won't let me export in HD (1080p or 720p), which has proved to be very frustrating.
    It first starts exporting:
    but then after a few minutes, a message comes up:
    What do I do? I've spent ages on this video, and it's really irritating, for me to start it all over again! I've updated all of my software, checked the App store for updates for iMovie, but there's nothing! What do I do???? GAH!!
    Please help! Thanks in advance! Thank you!

    I have the same problem and then some. I movie won't share this particular project, but it also won't save any changes made to it or any other project. At least that's what it started doing, now when I go to even try to make any changes it wigs out and things get scrambled in the Project window and it plays video from another project.
    When I create a new project, the Share menu is available, but it won't save changes to that project either. And by that I mean I can put stuff in the project and do whatever, but as soon as I quit and relaunch the application, the project is empty. I did figure out that if I make changes in a new project and immediately share it to the media browser that it will save the changes, but then it messes up my other project even more somehow!
    Tried archive and install, deleting plists, reinstalling iMovie and iLife support stuff (twice), repairing permissions, and changing permissions in the project package. Any other ideas?

  • Windows 8 itunes won't let me add anything to iphone

    windows 8 itunes won't let me add anything to iphone..apple community doesn't list the iphone as a product registered under my apple id, but the phone is listed on my authorized devices.  any ideas? and do i need to get it to show as a registered product?

    I have the same problem. I can't sync any apps or music on my iphone. I can't sync any music purchased through itunes on my ipod. I haven't even tried connecting my ipad for fear that it'll mess that up as well. I try to authorize my macbook but I get an error. The weird thing is that I am able to still play all of my purchased music through itunes so it seems that the authorization is at least somehow partially recognized.

  • My Game Center account won't let me add friends on this device. Can anyone help please?

    My Game Center account won't let me add friends on this device. Can anyone help please?

    What's more, it's absolutely ridiculous that there's no direct way of contacting Apple about this. In fact, as far as Game Center is concerned, there's no support network at all.
    It's either sheer idiocy or arrogance in action, here. Products go wrong - even yours, Apple.
