IMovie09 Not Holding Transitions

I am using iMovie09 and I notice that the particular movie I am working on does not hold its transitions. After I upload to YouTube, some (not all) transitions are gone and when I export to my desktop the transitions disappear. I closed out iMovie, opened it back up - transitions gone. Why is this happening and how can I repair it?
If it even matters, I also have iMovie HD6 on my system but I have not even tried to shift movies betweeen the two programs. I am working exclusively in iMovie09 until I learn iMovieHD6.
This problem is so frustrating. Last night I uploaded a movie to YouTube and when I played it back, I noticed some of the transitions were missing. When I looked back in iMovie they were missing there, too, so I am presently trying to put them back in but they keep disappearing.

The preference files for various versions of iMovie are as follows:
⇒ iMovie 3 and iMovie 4 - "com.apple.iMovie3.plist"
⇒ iMovie HD 6 - "com.apple.iMovie.plist" (I think iMovie HD [version 5] also used this file)
⇒ iMovie '08 - "com.apple.iMovie7.plist"
⇒ iMovie '09 - "com.apple.iMovie8.plist"
⇒ iMovie '11 - "com.apple.iMovieApp.plist"
As you will note, it's all very confusing! This is mainly due to version numbers not matching the release name, or no number being allocated. For example, the iMovie '09 file is labelled with iMovie8 because the version number is 8 (the last release being 8.0.6). However, for iMovie '11 it's simply iMovieApp (with the latest version being 9.0.4).
It's difficult to see the logic with the naming protocols, but bear in mind, no harm will come if you delete the wrong file as iMovie (whatever version) will rebuild the .plist file with the default settings when next opened. You can then change settings if desired in the iMovie menu item "iMovie>Preferences".

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • Battery said it's charging but laptop is not holding any charge. At 0%

    Having a battery issue and laptop not holding charge. My laptop was working fine yesterday and this is the first time I am having this problem. When I plug in the charger the light turns orange as to indicate it's charging but this is not the case. Also the orange light flickers to white sometimes to note full charge but I'm at 0%. I can only run the laptop for a minute or two before it dies. I checked the icon on the bottom right and it shows that it is plugged in and charging but stays at 0% and dies in a few minutes.
    I've tried searching and tried everything.I can't remove battery easily as it is an ultrabook. I tried waiting for laptop to cool, shutting down manually, disconnect charger and plug back in, trying different wall socket. Can't seem to find a solution please help!

    Hi nomanhp,
    First Try these Steps -
    1) Go to Device manager (Control Panel) and check with battery (ACPI and Adapter) that weather its installed or uninstalled..  If uninstalled then reinstall it..   If you find the battery installed in the control panel, try uninstalling it and reinstall..   See if u find any change..
    2) If no Change found.  Along with Following the above steps, shut down and restart your laptop for every uninstall..
    I mean, at device manager, uninstall the battery, turn off the laptop and start the laptop again (you might also select "restart with last good configuration" by pressing F8 while restart)...  While reinstalling, the battery gets automatically reinstalled..  
    You might also try clicking "scan for hardware changes" at device manager..
    3) If the problem Still persists, then ur battery is probably dead and is malfunctioning..  U would need a new Hp Battery..  
    If none of these above resolve ur problem, then there should be a problem with ur power board and u would need the help of expert to fix it. 
    Mark this Reply as "Accept as Solution" if it solves your problem.  Click "thumb up" just to say Thanks..
    Good Luck!!

  • My iPod Classic 120GB is clicking and not turning on. It has been charged but does not hold charge. I am not able to restore factory settings. Error code and have tried troubleshooting options without success. Thoughts?

    My iPod Classic 120GB makes a clicking noise when syncing with iTunes and will not sync. It will not turn on at this time and has been charged but does not hold the charge. After trying to sync, iTunes states that iPod must be restored. Have tried to do this but not successful, I receive an error code and have done the troubleshooting steps for the error and I am still not able to sync or use my iPod. HELP?

    Hi mafiose15,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    You can find the instructions in this article:

  • Battery shows charging but stuck on 28% and does not hold charge

    i am using HP DV6-6107tx, i got a new extended battery from anker which seemed to be running fine untill it discharged while i was playing watch dogs.
    now my laptop wouldn't power on just on the battery, everything works fine if it is on charging, but the battery does not hold charge and my system powers off immediately on removing AC adapter. the battery shows "28% Charging" but does not increase or decrease the percentage even after hours of charging both while system is on and off.
    i checked the battery in battery test from HP Support Assistant and it says that the battery status is ok, now i have tried the below methods with no luck :
    power off and press power button methods.
    uninstall and reinstall battery from device manager methods.
    battery check from HP Assistant.
    updating Bios to F.1b method.
    updating the HP Support Assistant.
    and all the other methods i could think of or read on HP's site.
    can anyone guide me as to what is the issue here ?       i don't have another machine to test my battery on, the charging lights are fine except that the light does not change color which it did on full charging the battery. i did try on 2 different adapters.
    now if it were a motherboard or IC issue, would it not have said 'not charging' in windows ? in my case it says charging.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello, M_Bilal
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    That you for provided such a detailed post with what you've already completed, for the issue with your battery. I will try to guide you further.
    I would like to provide you further documents for troubleshooting, but you've essentially completed what I have for this issue. The only step left, would be to test the battery.
    You can do this with another battery, or in another notebook. I know you mention another machine, but if you know someone who does or someone who has a compatible battery. This would test that. You could even see if a local computer shop could test it.
    The reason for this, is if the battery is the problem, it's much easier and more affordable replacement. Also, you mention it being new, might have warranty.
    The other possible cause to the issue you've touched on, that would be the system board. Testing the above, would just confirm if this is the problem or not. From there you could decide on what you'd like to do.
    I know, there really aren't many suggestions here, but I hope this can provide you with the next step.
    Let me know how things go, with the route you choose to troubleshoot.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • I have had my iPhone about 1 1/2 years...with no problems. About 2 days ago my battery drained within an hour, I plugged it in to charge and it heated up so hot the temperature warning popped up on the screen. The phone will not hold a charge now.

    I have had my iPhone 4 for about 1 1/2 years, with no problems. A couple days ago the battery drained in about an hour, I plugged it in to charge and it was not charging. After a few hours a message popped up on the screen about the temperature being too hot...the phone was very hot when I picked it up. The battery will not hold a charge and it heats up every time I plug it in. Suggestions???

    Make an appointment at the genius bar. An out of warranty replacement is $149.  It sounds like it may have gotten wet.

  • Will all my music transfer from the mac to my macbook air? I don't want it to because there is too much and the air will not hold it.

    will all my music transfer from the mac to my macbook air? I don't want it to because there is too much and the air will not hold it.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    First, when you are going to turn off or restart your Mac, you will see a box called "Reopen windows when logging back in" in the shutdown or restart window. Untick this box and see if the App Store opens automatically in the next startup.
    If it starts, open System Preferences > Users and Groups > Login Items, and see if the App Store shows up. If so, remove it from this list

  • My batterie doesn't work correctly to my Iphone 5. It should work longer, but it's worse. My battery does not hold a full day without much use.

    It should work longer, but it's worse. My battery does not hold a full day without much use.
    When the new version of ISO6 will come ??? A lot of apps don't work correctly too.... :-(
    I'm a little bit disappointed...

    Sounds like your iPhone is locked to your home carrier.
    See if they offer unlocking and if you qualify. Otherwise,
    there is nothing you can do besides rent/but a cheap
    phone for your month in Argentina.

  • Operation number not holding in Operation details screen for WM6.2

    Hi Experts,
    I have added custom statuses to operation object in WM6.2. When I am editing the operation,Operation number is displaying in operation details screen header.But when trying to execute custom statuses, the operation number is not holding in Operation tile view header as in the below screen snap.
    Thanks in advance.Kindly suggest.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sravanthi Polu

    Hi sravanthi,
    Just make sure that when you are editing operation object for custom statuses change you are editing same object that you are seeing in operation details screen.
    I think this problem is due to different/stale operation object that is being edited for when you are calling Operation Edit Transaction for change status for (custom statuses).
    I recommend to check your Target for Button , Action and Edit Transaction for this (is it same operation object that is being seen on detail screen/being edited for).
    Regards,

  • HT4623 Has anyone had a problem with Iphone 4s battery not holding charged status

    My 4S Iphone would not sync although it would charge when i connected it to my computer. I  got help from an apple representative who walked me through syncing with icloud to get back my contacts.  My phone wil not hold a charge since then. Apple diagnostic said the battery was perfect??

    Hi pamellag,
    Here is some information on iPhone batteries that may help you:
    Apple - Batteries - iPhone
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
    One of the side notes states:
    Charge Cycles
    A properly maintained iPhone battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 400 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs.
    The 'replace' link above leads to some options if you need to get the battery replaced:

  • The new Nano does not hold it's place in a song.

    New software came out today but this problem has not been fixed. This is what happens if I stop the Nano in mid-song (or movement) and wait perhaps more than half an hour to resume. I press play and see where I was in the song that was playing. The song and timer bar are where they were.
    But as the music actually starts there is a skip to the next track! What is more, if you try to go back to the previous track, it will skip over it and go back two. If you move forward, it will skip ahead two. It seems impossible to find your way back to where you stopped. No iPod I had before this displayed this problem. I don't think my 80G Video iPod has this issue.
    This problem combined with the main Music listing of the iPod in iTunes not holding your user choices make the current experience a little less than it was.
    But there is gapless playback. That does count for a lot. Sigh.

    OK. Since no one replied I restored my Nano 2. It still does this. Can anyone say theirs doesn't? Stop the music halfway or anyplace inside a track. Let the iPod rest for a few hours. Hit Play again. You see the song you were on and the place where you were. It is in Pause mode. Hit Play again to continue the song. At this point mine skips to the beginning of the next track. If I left click the wheel, it skips over the previous to the one before that.
    This does not happen with my 80G Video iPod. It holds it's place and the music continues.
    This is an 8G black Nano.

  • Why is my battery not holding a charged now that I have ios7 on my iPhone 4

    Why is my battery not holding a charged now that I have ios7 on my iPhone 4

    The same is happening to me on my 4 and 4S... Before the software update my battery used to hold up to 1 day for both 4 and 4S. Now I have to charge twice a day the iPhone 4 and three times a day the 4S. Apple should really fix it... I hope they release a new update for iPhone 4 and 4S users...

    H friends ,
    i am not the expert at the same time i know some thing in abap
    fval4 = fval3+0(250).
        fval3 = fval3+250(5).
    in the above case fval3 have 255 char at that time iam transporting 250 char to fval4 with this statment
    fval4 = fval3+0(250).
    and iam keeping  the remaining 5 char in fval3 with this statment
    fval3 = fval3+250(5)
    so that i can push some more values in fval3  and at i am
    CONCATENATE fval4 fval3 INTO fval5.
    so that fval5 may get all values this is the way i try but fval5 is not holding all the values 
    i asked solution for that
    fval 3 = fval3+250(250)
      dosen't  have any meaning i know that  friend
    my question is how to hold the remaining value
