Import from Toast 10?!?!?

Hey Guys!
I just cut one of my old DVDs up and want to import it into Toast 10. I saved the video as a mpeg 4 video; however, imovie will not let me import it. When I go to import, the movie is dimmed and will not allow me to click it. Do I have the video (8mins of film) in the wrong format?
-THANKS!!!!!

goto Toast's Preferences..
under Audio/Video you should find Chapters..
choose from drop down menu 'none'
your actual setting adds a socalled Chapter Track to the file.
which makes iM to stumble/unable to import..

Why cant i import a video from toast video player to imovie?

im trying to do this video for my friends birthday, and i have a video from toast video player, which doesnt load in either iphoto or imovie, what can i do? its actually really important, i need a quick answer:) thankyou very much in advance<3

Assuming it is the standard DVD format of mpeg2: (if it isn't post back with further details)
You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

Importing from dvd disk

I am very new to imovie and am trying to import my home videos from a disk. I have a sony camcorder that finalizes disks so you can view them on dvd players. I have no problem watching the disk on my computer, but when I try to import, a screen pops up saying that it is doing something to the unusable files, stops, then nothng is imported. Am I doing something wrong? Or am I not able to import from disks? Funny thing is I have no way of connecting the camera to the computer....no usb ports or fire wire port on the camera. HELP!

Import from DVD:
DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (29$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast 6/7 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
* connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter

Importing from a camcorder that writes to DVDs

Hello,
I'm trying to import from a Sony Handycam that writes to DVD and not mini DV tapes. Plus I only have a USB cable to connect to my computer. Is there any way to make this work without mini DV tapes or firewire??
Thanks

Hi
Does Your Camera have FireWire out then this is the easiest way - but if it works with a DVD Camera
is another thing. Doubting.
A. don't put a mini DVD into Your iMac or iBook or PowerBook. You need a trayloaded DVD to do this.
B. Read what Karsten collected:

Cannot import from DVD disc

I have recorded a 3 minute segment of a newscast using my DVD recorder - it contains video of a close friend of mine. I have a DVD disc which I burned on the DVD recorder from its Hard Drive containing only this short video which I want to give to him. I have tried to import it into iMovie so that I will have it on my iMac as a backup file but have been unsuccessful. I have tried following the procedure posted by "Appleman1958" in Dec 09 with no success - I know that he indicates that it is for iMovie 09 and perhaps that is my problem since I am working with iMovie HD 6. All I get is a 32 sec portion of the video with no sound. The VIDEO_TS folder on the DVD disc contains the following files: VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.VOB (it appears to be the title menu created by the DVD recorder but has nothing listed on it), VTS010.1F0, VIDEO_TS.1F0, VTS01O.BUP and VTSO11.VOB. I tried dragging ONLY the VIDEO_TS.VOB file onto mpeg streamclip as per the instructions ("drag the non-zero .VOB files and drop them into MPEG Streamclip) but it is only the title menu and there is no video. I tried adding the VTS011.VOB also but again only about 32 sec appears and there is no sound. Sorry, but I am a complete novice at this, do not understand what a VIDEO_TS folder is and what all those files within it mean and need some help here. And yes, I have purchased the Apple MPEG2 QT Component. Any simple, step-wise assistance would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi
Nop. iMovie HD6 are mainly for miniDV tape material imported via FireWire-port.
BUT - it can be done IN SOME CASES
*DVD back for futhur editing*
A. don't put a mini DVD into Your Mac unless it’s a trayloaded DVD burner/reader
B. iMovie’08 prob. 09 can import from DVD (homemade without copyprotection)

Importing from audio cassette.

I guess I put the cart before the horse. I asked Apple Care if I could import from audio cassette to my iMac G5 from a boombox. They suggesting posting question in Apple Discussions under Soundtrack/Soundtrack Pro. I now have the information as to what application (Toast 7) I need to accomplish this, but I guess my 1st question should have been whether I can accomplish with the hardware I have. I have a little Sony boombox (plays audio cassettes, CDs, and radio) and only has an earphone jack. I have a connector that I hoped could be used to connect and transmit to my G5. It's a digital stereo mini hook-up extension cable. The package says it's a stereo plug to stereo plug, "The solution for high quality signal transfer". Will this work? If not what do I need? Thanks for any help.

Recently I bought Bias SoundSoap for this purpose but haven't tried it out yet.
To: ThomasG: I am also interested in your results.
Barbara, I have purchased the Griffin and when it comes I will import with that to see if I get cleaner results. (I don't know what a preamp is...as I said I'm really a novice and am trying to learn.) When I import using Griffin do I connect to imic or USB? Perhaps by the time I am able to import the file using Griffin, ThomasG will have some input for us re Bias SoundSoap.
Is the cost for Bias SoundSoap comparable to Toast 7? I've found T7 for $80 through Google. I still don't know where to put my $ for application for my project. Sound Studio 2.2.4 is inexpensive and their support people said that v. 3 for $80 wouldn't give me better capabilities for what I'm trying to accomplish, just more bells & whistles for those who know how to use them.

I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this

I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this?
I have iPhoto version 9.1.5 (615)
Mac OS X version 10.6.8
I want to do this because when I imported from my old hard drive there was an error message stating that 12 photos were not imported as the programm did not recognise the format even though they were jpegs like the other photos in that particular album. The dates of the photo folders are wrong I have multiple copies of photos and every time I start iPhoto I get the following message 12 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported would you like to import them No or Yes
if you press Yes the same message comes back again and if you press Yes again the program flicks to last import for 2 seconds and then opens events.
if you press No the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user/judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos then if you press OK the original message 12 photos have been found.............
if you press No at this point the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user /judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos_11 the end number goes up by 1 every time you go through this process
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
For the annoying start-up message:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Comments not imported from Data Dictionary of SQL Server. SDDM 3.3.0.747

Hi,
SDDM 3.3.0.747 32-bit on Windows 7 64-bit.
Comments are not imported from Data Dictionary of SQL Server 2008. Connection through Microsoft JDBC Driver 4.0 for SQL Server or jTDS 1.2.7
What I have tried? In SDDM DDL generation, Comments in DBRMS for SQL Server are generated with "EXEC sp_addextendedproperty 'MS_Description' , 'Test Comment' ..." so I added extended property named "MS_Description" into SQL Server database, both on table and column. None of them were imported from Data Dictionary into SSDM. I have tried both drivers stated above. Is it a bug or am I missing something?
I've found similar question thread Re: Data dictionary import doesn't import column comments for SDDM 3.0.0.665, so I guess it is a bug when importing with JDBC drivers.

Extended properties were not imported correctly from SQLServer databases at DM 3.3.0.747.
Calls to sp_addextendedproperty and fn_listextendedproperty have been modified.
I don't think it is a problem with JDBC drivers.
A bug fix should be available in the next release of DM.

SQL modeler can not import from data dictionary

It was very frustruted to see that the SQL Modeler hang in import from data dictionary of a database as part of revise engineering. I have to question myself if sql modeler is a serious tool and should I give up.

I am not sure if Data Modeller is still in Beta./Production. First couple off initial versions of a new product are normally buggy.
Regards
Alternatively, If this product is still in Beta, then you can contact the development team or report the issue so that they can take care of this issue in next beta release.

Unable to Import from my Canon DC220 camcorder...

I had begun a project with I-movie 6 of which my camcorder was not compatible with...my solution was to upgrade to I-Movie 08 of which the Canon DC220 is compatible with and I-Movie should import from (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306171). Unfortunately, when I plug my Camcorder into the USB and switch it to PC/Computer mode, I get a pop up on the screen stating that I "inserted a Blank DVD" and gives me a few options on how to proceed. I did try to use other USB ports on the Mac...nothing. I did try a couple different DVDs of which I recorded on...nothing. So I was able to eliminate the problem being with the DVD or the USB port I was using. Please advise as I am at a loss. Thanks so much.

Unplug your USB cable and then press func. to enter the menu on your camera.
plug in your cameras power supply. Then select Finalize. This will close the disc and prepare it for importing.
I'm still having trouble, but this is a step you must follow.

IPhone won't play music imported from CDs or mp3s not downloaded from itunes

When I first downloaded iOS 7, all of the music I had in my iTunes synched to my iPhone, but now new CDs I just imported and previous songs I imported from CDs won't synch (I've tried over wifi and usb). When I click on songs on my phone that were from CDs, they look as if they are going to play and then skip immediately. Mp3s I downloaded do the same thing. Mind you, everything was working fine until updating to iOS 7.0.4. I've been looking around the forums and have found that problems like this are relatively common and it's a shame Apple hasn't done anything to fix it.
When my phone is hooked up and I click on "on this iPhone", it says the music from CDs and mp3s is on, but the titles come up gray with these litte circle things next to them
Just checking now, I noticed some songs I bought from iTunes are doing the same thing.
I tried manually synching, but when I click to drag the songs into my phone, the section that has music, movies, etc. just flashes and nothing happens. I know something is wrong because I just put a ringtone onto my phone the same way.
Oh, I also noticed that when my iPhone is synching and the steps go through at the top it skips steps 3, 4, and sometimes 5 (The Apple symbol pops up instead then goes straight to 6 and 7) so I know it's not recognizing the fact I put a bunch of new music in iTunes. Also, when I look at the bar at the bottom that shows how much memory is on my phone, this shows up:
and that Documents and Data thing was not there before.
Can someone please give me ideas on how I can stop this rediculousness without buying a new phone?

Did you already try the suggestions mentioned in this article?
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

This Question is at least 2.5 years old. But still an issue. I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7. Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

iTunes does not use the .xml it uses the .itl
If you are sure your old library file migrated across (does the file size and modification dates suggest it has?) start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the .itl file to get it to use that one.
