Import project from other drive

Hi,
I have upgraded my MacBook with an 256 GB SSD in the former combo drive place which now contains the OS, Apps and system files. The "old" 1TB HD is still there where it was but only contains media files (Music, Images and Video).
I have managed to connect Aperture and iPhoto on the SSD to it's image library on the HD.
But how do I do this with iMovie? When I launch iMovie, it shows both drives but doesn't show any content other than iPhoto-Videos.
p.

There are a lot of nuances to this.
I am running my OSX and my apps on a SSD and running my home folder on the spinning hard drive.
Here is good info that helped me set it up from longtime forum contributor Pondini (James Ponds).
http://pondini.org/OSX/SetupOther.html
If you choose to keep you home folder (your User Name folder) on the SSD, then your iMovie Events are probobly going to be too large for that.
If you have your home folder on the hard disk, they would be in <User Name>/Movies/iMovie Projects and <User Name>/Movies/iMovie Events respectively.
If your home folder is on the SSD, then the folders on your Hard drive need to be at the top level of the drive and be named iMovie Projects and iMovie Events, respectively.
You really need to do the move from the SSD to the hard drive from within iMovie, so that all the links are preserved. If your SSD is not big enough to do this, do one project and its events at a time.
Here is how to move projects from within iMovie.

Here is how to move Events from within iMovie.

If this isn't clear, please ask for clarification. Good luck.

  • WebDynpro Problem - Importing Project from tutorials

    I am trying to gothru the tutorial Accessing ABAP Functions in Web Dynpro (4).
    I have downloaded and unzipped the zip file 4TutWD_FlightList.zip
    When I try and Import a project,
    It finds the Project TutWD_FlightList_init, I am able to select the project, but then I recieve a error
    "Errors importing Projects
      Error message: Invalid project description.
    I have tried other project tutorials off SDN and get the same error.

    Luciano,
    I have tried the File>Import>Import Project from File System>
    I am able to get the project created but none of the other structure is being built. The application,controller, views and window are all missing. I have tried to  rebuild the project and I have tried to repair the project. No errors but no project structure either. I was a little confused by your suggestion to extract and then extract again. I have no files in the   TutWD_FlightList_init.zip  to extract again.
    Also in the directory structure I have the files for the project such as...
    project --> ProjectProperties.wdproperties
    application --> FlightListApp.wdapplication
    resultview-->  ResultView.wdview , ResultView.wdview.xlf
    controllers --> SearchView.wdcontroller
    Any other suggestion would be appreciated,
    Thanks,

  • Using the Import utility from other users and going to a different schema

    I has a user today with rights
    Insert into XXXX.TABLE values(); Works just fine for another schema's table which has select,insert,update,delete.
    We tried to utiile the import utility from OTHER USERS
    Insert failed ORA-00942
    Do you want ot ignore all errors
    Even though we have rights to the schema under OTHER USERS.
    When connected as the owner it works fine.

    I've be trying to find a work-around to this issue & found this old post -- I'm having the same problem.
    I'm using Oracle 11g and SD 2.1.1.64.
    I have user A with a table that grants select,insert,update, and delete privs to user B. Logging into user B I, of course, can do inserts, deletes, etc. on the the table in user A's schema.
    When I use the import data feature to load data from a CSV file I can't get it to work while logged into user B. It does work fine if logged into user A. It looks like the issue may be that it doesn't put the schema prefix of "A." on the insert statements.
    Has anyone found a way to get around this issue yet?

  • What does "Easily import photos from other applications" really mean?

    What does "Easily import photos from other applications" really mean in the Lightroom 4 features list? I also see it stated as "...from other software" as well. Yes, I understand the LR can import from Elements libraries but can't find any reference to other applications anywhere, not in the online help, not in the user guide, not in any videos on Adobe TV. It would be nice if LR could see into iPhoto or Aperture libraries but that doesn't appear to be the case. Is that assumption correct? What other applications can LR import from?

    Hello bbb34vball,
    Since that article didn't help, I would suggest trying the steps in this article next:
    iOS: Unable to import photos to computer - Apple Support
    If that doesn't resolve your issue, you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources - https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action.

  • How to import mts from hard drive

    Hello,
    I'm looking for some help on importing .mts AVCHD files into FCP X direct from my hard drive. I have a lot of files on the drive that aren't on my Panasonic GH2 memory card so I can't import direct from camera. If I try to put the files back onto a memory card with the Panasonic GH2 directory structure it doesn't see them there either.
    I've tried re-wrapping to .mov and the .mov file will play perfectly in quicktime but when I bring it into FCP X it plays back with occasional green frames ever 2-3 seconds. I've checked that the frame rate is correct in the project and with the clip.
    I don't mind re-wrapping the files as it's quite quick but even that's no working. I could convert them all to prores but that will take quite some time and once again I'd rather avoid!
    It seems that FCP X is still not quite right despite the last two updates. I've had to stick with Premiere Pro for serious work as FCP X isn't reliable yet but I really wanted to test out the new multi cam editing.
    Any advice or help would be great.

    I've tried re-wrapping to .mov
    What did you use to do this? Did you use ClipWrap, Media Converter, something else?

  • Design view not working after importing project from Flex Builder

    After importing a project from Flex Builder to Flash Builder I am no longer able to see anything in the design view. I am using the flex 4.5 sdk.
    Any idea how I can get this design view working? I heard it could have something to do with the metadata directory but am slightly lost here?...
    Adam

    Could you please provide more information as to what exactly are you importing. Also does Design View not lauch at all or does it give errors. Would it be possible for you to share the logs.
    Meanwhile you can try cleaning the workspace and importing again to see if that solves the issue.

  • Imported project from CVS not working.

    Hi all,
    I am experiencing a weird problem with the use of CVS.
    I am a new user of CVS, i installed a cvs server and i am trying to test its functionnalities within JDEV so that i can explain to the team i am working with how to use and benefit from it use.
    But right now i have a hard time using it. I imported the project to CVS using the command line and then i checked it out using jdev. the problem is that when i compile i get an error on every jspx page the error is a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException for the following lines in the source of the jspx :
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
    <jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.0"
    xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
    xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
    xmlns:afh="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/html"
    xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces">
    Also the the design view of the page is in designer mode and not in normal edit mode.(i only see embedded boxes one inside the other)
    I did a test i took the project from the folder that i used to import it to cvs and this version is working perfectly no errors at all.
    What could be the cause of this problem.
    I am using jdev 10.1.3.3 with cvs version: 1.11.17
    If further information is needed just ask me!
    Any help will be appreciated
    and thank you for your time
    Regards,
    Carl

    Hi all and thx for your time,
    I did some more extensive testing and i actually got it to work on a redhat machine. But i tried on 2 different windows machine and it does not want to work!!! But as i said from the redhat machine it worked right out of the box!!!
    On the windows machines i tried the jdev native cvs client and i also tried to install a newer version of cvsnt and i specified the path in my project unsuccesfully. I am running out of tests to try... Could it have to do with file permissions since the server is on a redhat machine and i try to import into windows!!! (i dont think this is even an issue but i am ready to consider every options)
    Thanks again for your time and involvement.

  • Problem when exporting and importing project from odi 10g to odi 11g

    Hi,
    I want to migrate my project from odi 10g to odi 11g.
    But when i am importing the interface then it is giving the error of mising references .
    I have exported the project(without its child component),models
    (including my datastore),KM's,folder (without its child component),packages(with child components),interaces(with child components),procedures(with child components),variables from odi 10g.
    After exporting all these objects i imported all the objects with import type set as "Synonym mode insert" into odi 11g but when i imported the interface it is giving the error of missing references.
    Source technolgy is Oracle and target technolgy is Postgres.
    Topologies have been made in the ODI 11g same as in ODI 10g.
    Please help.

    You dont need to migrate the complete repository. You can migrate a project at a time into ODI 11.1.1.5.x
    You have to be careful while importing. You have to follow a sequence when importing.
    Empty Project -> KMs -> Models (with DB Stores) -> Variable -> Empty Folders -> Interfaces -> Procedures -> Packages ---- All in SYNONYM mode insert (no exceptions)
    And your repository id in 11g MUST be different from the one in 10g.

  • Can't import photos from flash drive

    When I try to import photos from a flash drive, the images do not stay in the Library -- the next time I open iPhoto, I can see the photos but when I try to edit them, I get a screen prompt that the "source is unavailable - can't access the JPEG". To access the photo & edit I have to use the flash drive -- which kinda defeats the purpose of "importing" them in the first place. Why are the photos imported from my flash drive not staying in the Library? I have no problem importing images from digital camera -- those remain in the Library once imported. Please help!

    Thanks! A quick review of Preferences revealed the "Copy imported items to Library" was indeed unchecked -- though I don't recall ever unchecking it (as I just started using iPhoto recently). But I have re-checked it and expect the problem to be fixed. Just one un-referenced Library will work just fine for me.

  • Importing Photos from USB drive, autostarting Iphoto

    In order to get my iMac to automatically start iPhoto and initiate the import process from a USB drive, does the USB drive have to have the same exact file structure of that used on my camera's SD card? When I connect a USB drive with jpegs on it, iPhoto will not automatically start.

    Why do you need it to start iPhoto automatically?
    If you really do, then format it the same as a Camera Card - FAT 16.
    Regards

  • Cannot import files from hard drive

    I just got an iPod and downloaded iTunes (for Windows). I imported some music from CDs, but I can't import files from my hard drive. I've tried adding them as files and in a folder. Every time, nothing happens. I don't get an error message, but the songs don't show up anywhere in iTunes or on my iPod. Can anyone help me?
    P.S. They are .aac files.
    iTunes 7.0.2.16   Windows XP  

    Can you confirm that you are following one of the methods in the Add to Library section of this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
    In particular, pay attention to the statement that "iTunes adds entries in your iTunes library for the selected files, and copies the files to your iTunes Music folder (if you have that option selected in the Advanced pane of iTunes preferences)."

  • How do I Import projects from iMovie 11 to iMovie 08

    Hi All,
    yesterday I tried to transfer a project from imovie 11 to another mac with imovie 08. I have followed the procedure suggested for doing the opposite, such as from imovie 08 to imovie 11. As I'm writing here I did not succeed...
    I can import imovie event folder and it was red from imovie 08 but when I'm pasting the project into the project folder of the computer with imovie 08 (copied previusly from the other computer with imovie 11) imovie 08 cannot see is it, and when I'm trying to import it from file>import an HD project it's seen from imovie 08 greyed out.
    First of all: It is possible to do it?
    Is that the right procedure to adopt?
    hope it make sense and someone found already the issue so can answer me quickly
    cheers

    iMovie projects are not down-wards-compatible.
    to open iM11 Projects you have to use iM11.
