IMovies - Export Using Quicktime - can't find the finished file - help please!

Please help.  I exported several imovies projects to a designated file on my mac, using Share - Export using Quicktime and then I uploaded them to Youtube. 
I did this successfully several times, now when I export a project, it takes about 45 minutes to export it, then I can't find them anymore.
I have read several threads, which suggest looking in the iMovie projects folder and locate your project Right-click to get to "show package contents" and they are not there.
It looks as if it goes through successfully, no errors but this is so annoying as I am wasting hours sharing and then can't find it.  Please help anyone.
Thanks

Hi Gee
I originally spent about 10 hours uploading 3 clips directly from imovies to Youtube to a private channel and they couldn't find any signs of my 3 uploads.  So I read threads that said export to Quicktime from imovies and then load them to Youtube that way.  I did that for 3 short, 10 minute videos and it worked fine.  It changed the thread to .mov and it worked.
Then perhaps I changed something (not sure what) but now when I use Export to Quicktime, it spends 1 hour or so doing the motions and completes but when I go to the allocated folder to retrieve it.  It can't be found.  I read threads and this seems to be a regular occurrence but I haven't read any replies that has solved this issue.
Hope that's clearer.

  • Can't find the geturl Statement HELP PLEASE

    Ok I've been using for 3 years now flash, and of
    course sometimes I have to modify the work of others. So far when I
    intended to modify the target URL for a button I select the button,
    and modify the getURL statement.
    Then I changed to CS3, and I got a menu I need to change...
    actionscript window is no longer where it used to be, but no
    problem, I just clicked F9 locate the button and see the
    actionscript right? WRONG.
    All I see is the stop() and the gotoAndPlay statements but
    not a single gotoURL in all the AS window. I can't seem to find how
    to locate that instruction or even if there is another way to make
    a button go to a URL without the gotoURL instruction, that i'm sure
    has to be there... any idea how to locate the instruction?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Ok here is how they did it, and i must say it was pretty
    clever.
    they created a layer called hit, and put the button there,
    BUT on the layer hit on the first frame they just put a carriage
    return (in the frame)
    Now when you click on the button, they put the normal stuff,
    on release etc. THEN they hide the hit layer and locked it.
    End result, if you tried to see through AS the code, you just
    saw a carriage return, even when the code was in that same frame
    but on the button instance... further more even in the AS pane, you
    only see a carriage return UNTIL you unlock the layer, make it
    visible, and select the button, other wise you just see the
    carriage return...
    Thanks for your feeback dzedward you are the best.

  • I downloaded a video from a piano site I can not find the downloaded file/ video please help me

    I Downloaded a video from a piano site can not locate where the video is please help me

    You will need to download a third party app in order to play Movies that are not from the iTunes Store or synced from your computer. I know absolutely nothing about any of these, so you will have to do your own research.

  • How do I export my video in 500x500 resolution? I know there's a feature in Final Cut Express that allows me to make custom dimensions when I export but I can't find the same in FCPX

    How do I export my video in 500x500 resolution? I know there's a feature in Final Cut Express that allows me to make custom dimensions when I export but I can't find the same in FCPX.

    Tom is right, BUT! ...the newest version of Compressor (41.) allows you to do just THAT! ...to export custom sizes.
    It's easy. And... once you set it up, you can export DIRECTLY from FCPX, provided you've saved / added this scheme as a "destination" in the FCPX app.

  • I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again

    I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists."  It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

    You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
    Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
    What specific Window operating system are you using?
    Let us go through the usual drill...
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
    from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
    5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
    computer as Premiere Elements 13?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

    Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
    I found the answer to my question.
    When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

  • My LV program can't find the iak file when the program is loaded from a different PC.

    Hello all,
    My LV vi with Fieldpoint I/O and it's IAK file are stored on the company network.  If I load and run the LV vi from the PC it was developed on, everything is fine.  If I load and run on a different PC (that has an identical install of LV), the LV vi can't find the IAK file (all of the I/O pointers to the file are grayed out.) 
    Also, if I make an EXE out of the vi on the machine that can find the IAK, it won't find it if it's run from the other machine.
    It is not related to whether one machine has different "rights", as they are identical.  It's not related to different installs of LV, as they are identical.   
    I have found that this is related to the network login name/password, and to the machine's network name.  If I login on the second machine and try to run the program, it won't find the IAK.  If I point it to the IAK it will run.  If I save it and log out, and then login as a different user with the same rights on the second machine, it won't find the IAK again, until I re-point it there when I re-run it.  This is true for both the vi and the EXE.
    This problem makes deploying the EXE difficult to different machines, as the first time it's run, the EXE has to be pointed to the IAK.  Pointing the EXE to the IAK is difficult as these installations have no keyboard or mouse.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this so the LV vi or it's EXE finds the IAK from no matter where it's loaded from?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Laura,
    I figured I'd continue this thread because it's along he same line..
    I have two Fieldpoint systems. They are identical, except for one thing...one has an AI-110 in position 7...the other has nothing. Both have the same IP address, etc and I swap the ethernet cable between them when I want to select which one I use.  I use a dedicated ethernet card to the FP processor...and it's not the company net.
    There are two IAK files...one for the system with the AI-110, one for the system without the AI-110. The two IAKs are in different paths.
    Before I had the system and the IAK without the AI-110, I made an EXE of the code that woked with the AI-110, and it worked fine.
    But now if I run the EXE after I've used MAX and opened the IAK without the AI-110, the EXE won't read the AI-110!  I have to go back into MAX and open the IAK that has the AI-110 in it, close MAX and restart the EXE for the EXE to see the AI-110.  (Max is NOT SET to "Download Items on Save")
    I looks like the EXE is looking at MAX to get the IAK or a pointer to the IAK.
    Did I build my EXE incorrectly?  Shouldn't an EXE completely ignore MAX once it's made?
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

    Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

    You can't do that.
    And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

  • Where can i find the cached file?

    where can i find the cached file?.
    while one video was getting cached . I could see the cached file in the cache directory that mozilla firefox uses which in my pc is .....Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\uujksq39.default\Cache. but later on when the full video was completely cached i couldnt find the file existing in that directory and i still have my session of that firefox opened and can watch the video from the firefox session.
    since the cached video is still there ,there most be some place where the firefox is storing that file. is it the case that when the file is big (greater than some threshold value) firefox stores in some other directory?

    You can do a search an the about:cache page.

  • IWeb works, but I can't find the domain file!!!!

    OK - this one has had me stumped for a few days now... I have iWeb (vs. 1.1.2 - from the '06 iLife). I need to find the domain file. It isn't in the home/library/app. support/iWeb folder. I didn't move it. I searched for it using command-F and using spotlight on my computer.
    iWeb is to reset and start from scratch if there isn't a domain file on your hard drive. So I know it's there somewhere (at least, I think it is?). My site is there. I can publish. I can make changes, however I can't find the domain file to make a back up of it. I don't think that I made it invisible - could I have somehow done that? And if so, is it possible to find it? I believ the program only works if the file is named "domain" so I don't think that I could have accidentally renamed it.
    Is there someone out there who can help me? I don't want to have to start from scratch and rebuild the websites.
    Thanks for your input!

    This is from Multisite's Technical Page:
    Technical Information
    While you don’t need to understand how data is stored to use Multisite for iWeb it can be helpful occasionally to understand what is going on behind the scenes. At a nuts and bolts level Multisite for iWeb stores all of its sites in your home folder’s Documents folder in a single package (which is really a fancy folder dressed up to look like a file) called “Multisite for iWeb Data.mfi.”
    You can open that package like this.
    Once you get your domain file straightened out I'd definitely get Varkgirl's Automator application to make frequent backups of that file. You can get it Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site.

    where can I find the physical files ? .. does it also delete the physical files if I run "DELETE FROM APEX_APPLICATION_FILES WHERE ID = '1682930319090730' ?
    please advise
    thanks & regards
    Luc

    Hi Luc,
    APEX does not create physical file that is in APEX_APPLICATION_FILES table.
    It can only store the file in BLOB format in repository.
    So when we upload file APEX stores file in BLOB column of APEX_APPLICATION_FILES table and then use when needed but no physical file.

  • Why does Itunes say it can't find the original file for a particular song?

I can't access a bunch of old song files. any new cds are available to me in itunes. all others are not accessible. how do i merge the new cd's with the old ones so that all the songs are playable in Itunes. thanks.

    Of course, I have backed up to CD and/or external drive.
    I'm wondering if you're attempting to maintain your library on your external HDD? If iTunes has been directed to use a location on your external hard drive as your iTunes Music Folder location (you can check this in iTunes > Preferences > Advanced tab) you MUST ensure that the hard drive is connected to the computer and mounted in the Finder prior to launching iTunes. If it isn't, it can cause this error to appear. This is probably one of the most common reasons this error begins to appear.
    It seemed my purchased songs were the first to DISAPPEAR and I had to rebuy.(Nice scam in the bug?)
    So... why not restore them from your backup? If, for some reason, this wasn't an option, you could have also recovered them from any iPod or iPhone they were currently synced to (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848), or, you can also email iTunes Store support and request a "regrant," which is a once-per-account exception they might be able to offer you and allow you to download missing purchases again.
    I am now convinced this a HUGE BUG in 7.7.1. and possibly the previous version or two.
    I'm not so sure... I've never run across this particular error (my library is stored on my internal hard drive, but copied to an external for backup purposes with an application other than iTunes or Finder. I don't think Apple will provide acknowledgment to issues experienced only by very small numbers of people... I'm one of those, perhaps foolish, individuals who allows my computer to download updates immediately, rather than waiting for fear of problems, and again, I've never had this error.
